  1. While Sam would know if the ghosts are watching her log in, Jay would not be able to use the computer without Sam around in order to make sure there isn't a ghost lurking over his shoulder watching him type in his password. Jay is always at a disadvantage in his own home. It is sad that he really doesn't know what secrets of his are not so secret. Hell, even in his dreams he can't be sure Sass isn't watching. At least now he knows what Sass looks like, the ghost can't sneak around manipulating and spying in his dreams.
  2. This episode was great. Poor Pete. My heart was breaking for him when Carol was all "oh, I know about cheating from soaps" LIAR! One of the things I love about this show are little moments, it's like this with a lot of shows I really like, where characters do some little thing that isn't really important and feels more like the character than the actor. In this ep it was when Hetty and Pete were talking in the beginning. While Hetty was her usual snarky self, the whole time she was rubbing Pete's back. It's little details like that that I love. Also, their laughing together about Carol's death was what Pete needed. Another was the faces Alberta was making when Sass and Hetty came interrupting the Pete/Carol moment with a plan to lick Carol's candy (oh, that sounded as bad as being sucked off lol). I agree about loving the various pairings. Sass and Hetty were hilarious this ep and it seems very in character that that is the sort of thing they'd bond over. I imagine them being gossip buddies. As much as I don't want Carol to stay too long, so I think she really worked in this ep. Add me to Team Jay regarding the money. WTF is Isaac going to do with the money? He doesn't need it to "live" while Jay and Sam are trying to make a living there, which will benefit everyone in the long run. I don't blame him from lashing out, and I don't even blame him for saying Isaac isn't real because, quite frankly, he has little proof that he is, and Jay is super stressed, and he's very alone. Sam has a family of like 9 or more (depending on which ghosts you include) while Jay has a family of Sam. That's it. She's all he really has out there in the country, sometimes Sass in his dreams now, but only really one person he can talk to. That said, he and Sam really need to come up with a codeword or gesture she can use when there is a ghost around so Jay will know when he is being overheard. That alone has got to be stressful. The man can't do anything in his own home without wondering if he's being watched. Like, does he have to go past the ghost barrier every time he wants to have a bit of a tug? Yikes.
  3. I do wonder about how time passes for ghosts. Would she really be counting the rising/setting of the sun with a stick in the mud to figure out how long she'd been down there? Or is she going by vibes, like it FEELS like a month? Flower doesn't strike me as the ticking off the days type. Hell, she may have been sucked off, asked to come back because she wanted to be with Thor since they just started their relationship, was sent back, but the coordinates were wrong and she got zapped back into the well. Show runners lie in interviews about what their plans are for the show all the time though, so I never pay much attention to interviews. I think sometimes it is purposeful misdirect and other times they had a plan when they gave the interview but something made them change it. But if they said something like "it has to be a main ghost to really make an impact" that doesn't necessarily mean that is what they planned on doing. It would be like saying "dinner has to be vegetables to really be healthy, (but I'm having pizza)". Of course if they said "a main character is being sucked off" full stop, then who knows what happened. Maybe they lied, maybe they thought about it but realized the cast work too well together to lose one and tossed the idea, maybe Sheila was going to leave then asked if there was a chance to come back and they like her enough to say sure. Personally I don't care as, like I said, I don't pay much attention to what they say as it might not be the truth. lol
  4. Oh, I'd love it if Jay, fed up with being left out of the ghost stuff, ended up making up an invisible to others alien friend. He could convince Sam the light was really an alien beaming down who now lives in their barn and only Jay can see him.
  5. I think forgiving her was easier when he assumed he'd never have to see her again. But it wasn't exactly closure. I think now that she is also a ghost, they can hopefully just sit down and talk to each other about what happened. Pete never got the chance to tell her, face to face, how badly the news of her affair hurt him. And she never really got to tell him to his face why she did it. I believe that they did truly love each other so their healing can really only happen when they talk to each other directly. Not through letters, not through Sam but sit down, alone and really just open all the old wounds so they can properly heal. I hope that is the route they go. I think it will be and that this healing will lead to Carol being sucked off while Pete, assuming he'd go too, ends up staying on Earth. (I don't want that for Pete. If he were real I'd want him to get his closure and the peace of moving on, but he's not, and he only exists for my (our) entertainment, so I hope he sticks around. While not my favorite ghosts, I do adore him and would miss him if he left.) Though it would be pretty epic of the whole Flower got sucked off was a misdirect and the real suck off is Pete. (It wouldn't explain the light we saw in the cliffhanger, but I am wondering if we ever will get an explanation of that. Maybe it was something other than a suck off. Oh, maybe someone got abducted by aliens lol)
  6. My thought is, she was sucked off. When they held the séance it actually worked but, Flower being Flower, she came back to the wrong spot. NVM I forgot the "been there a month" thing. :( So we still don't know who was sucked off, which is interesting. But I am glad the answered the Flower question so quickly rather than drawing it out. I thought this ep was hilarious. I think it's interesting to have Pete's ex around (but only for a short time) just for the affect it will have on poor Pete. It will give a new dynamic as we've not really seen two ghosts who hate each other being stuck together. Oh, and imagine the rage if she then gets sucked off while they're all still there. But I don't want her around for long. She and Nancy are way too much. I guess Pete has a type. lol
  7. So, wait, we're the reason they are stuck here? Awe, now I feel bad, but not bad enough to let go so they can be sucked off. Sorry ghosts, you must stay here for my amusement. Muahhahahaa
  8. I just finished a show where up until the final ep, the show was amazing, writing was sharp the actors were on pointe, but then the entire final ep was basically what you said and I spent the whole hour shouting to just forking tell him why you're pissed!!!!!!
  9. This was a great episode, very funny, but I don't see much of a future for Bella and Eric, and not just because he lied for an extended period of time to her, but because she needed him to pretend to be someone else (the hot motorcycle neighbor) to be into him. That is not a healthy relationship. I am very happy that Isaac and Nigel's conflict was resolved. I really, really don't want the show to find some contrived reason to split them up in order to keep up some "will they/won't they" kind of thing. Those two have waited long enough to be together. I want them to get their happily ever after. Poor Alberta. Solving her murder didn't even make Jay's list of things that happened. :( Hetty's de-aging was... weird. I couldn't actually tell if it was extremely heavy make up (her face looked as white as Margot Robbie in Mary Queen of Scots) or CGI effects. Thing is, Rebecca Wisocky has this great rich, silky voice that doesn't read "young" to me, so seeing them trying to make her look younger but still sounding like current Hetty was more distracting than if they hadn't de-aged her and just styled her hair and makeup "younger". I mean, between the year title card, the change of clothes and the fact she was talking to her father we knew this was a younger version of Hetty. Still, this season is getting better with each episode. I wasn't that thrilled with The Owl, but this and the last ep reminded me why I fell in love with this show. And this is an example of how to use Nancy. She's best when she's just walking past in the background dropping a snide comment as she passes.
  10. The trouble is, once something is a huge hit, all the studios try to make their own version of it. It oversaturates the market. It seems like maybe 5 people in Hollywood have the ability to come up with fresh new ideas and the other 500 or so just steal those ideas and grind them into the ground until there is nothing left.
  11. Yeah, I rarely go directly to Freevee to watch anything but will often watch Freevee shows when I'm looking for something to watch on Prime and it shows up so I don't technically know what I watch on Freevee vs Prime other than Leverage and I think Murder She Wrote is Freevee not Prime but I could be wrong.
  12. Isaac definitely has an inflated sense of self importance, so it is completely in character for him to claim to have helped "invent democracy". As much as I love Isaac, I very much love when his self important balloon gets deflated and Sass's little throat clear was perfect.
  13. I found the ep okay but not one I'll probably rewatch when I want a laugh. So I'm not the only one? While I don't mind the concept of the basement ghosts, I can't forking stand Nancy. Whenever she or attic ghost are on I feel my interest wavering. This is one of very few shows I give my full attention to... until one of those two show up. Also, I am so indifferent to Flower that, other than the fact the episode was about her being sucked off, I didn't really notice her absence. Of all the Main ghosts, I was hoping she was the one sucked off because I do think I'd have missed Thor, Sass, Isaac (and Nigel as Isaac's partner), Hetty, Alberta, Pete or Trevor. While I don't want the actress to lose her job I would be fine with Flower being gone. I'd also be fine with her not being gone. That's how indifferent I am. lol I would happily have her come back and have Nancy sucked off in her place if that were an option.
  14. New conspiracy theory! Hetty got Flower sucked off! Flower will at some point come back in order to confront Hetty. "But why? We were going to braid each others hair and sing songs" Hetty's response "You just answered your own question. I'm not needed here." Walks out before any of the others can attack her.
  15. That could be interesting. Especially if Flower does want to go back to the other side but either Thor does something that prevents her from going back in time, or, being Flower, she forgets to go back in time and ends up stuck back as a ghost. Personally, I'm okay if Flower doesn't come back. I do think that is had to happen eventually and will move the story forward. While we've seen that they want to move on, we also see how they are a family (and seem to have gotten far closer with Sam and Jay around) so there has to be some serious conflict . I'm just dreading how long we'll have depressed Thorfinn. It is bad for his character to "get over it" but I also don't want him moping around or lashing out for a whole season. This show is my escapism.
