  1. Meh, that was awful. Seems like yet another "business woman needs to be fixed through the power of family and kids" type of deal.  The main characters had no chemistry as a couple, why am I supposed to root for these bland people in a bland romantic situation? The guy and his kids are straight up unlikable. They were obnoxious and also bland. The only character I did like was the imaginary friend, but she doesn't really seem necessary to the show besides being a gimmick.

    Thank god it's going to be in a timeslot that I don't usually watch.

    On another note, some bitter Jason stan created a Go Fund Me page for the 2nd Place Winner. You know, I just find that really, really sad from his fans. Also, there's the slim chance that the money actually goes to Jason and isn't just stolen by the person who created the page. 

    I'm pretty sure this kind of thing happens almost every season. As far as I know they don't usually get too far.

  3.  At my high school, you weren't technically allowed to leave the cafeteria. But I always end up sneaking out after I was done eating lunch to go up to the library and use the computers in there.  Sneaking out was hard, sometimes I'd just be able to do it while the teacher guarding the door to the hallway was distracted, but sometimes I'd have to sneak out the doors to the outside.  Then getting back inside was a problem - most of the doors except for the one in front of the main office was locked and going back in through that door would mean getting in trouble.  Sometimes I'd luck out and there would be a side door somewhere unlocked. It was really a lot of effort for something we should have had access to anyway, what is the point of a library if you can't go use it?

    There was no hierarchy at our school's lunch tables though. Unless my friends were in the same lunch period, I just ate alone and I preferred it that way. It was nice to have a whole table to myself. People left me alone and I could spread my stuff out.  So yeah, I don't really get when the plot is trying to find a table to fit in at, unless the school is short on tables.

    The answering machine war part of the episode was so funny.  I figured it was going to turn out that they actually liked talking to each other on the answering machines.

    Interesting how Julie pulled out the keys in such a way (four for each finalist) that it was the last key that determined who won (IMO was given the win).  Again, I think something smells about the whole thing.

    I was always under the impression that the jury already knew who they were voting for and told the production ahead of time, and then they would have them vote in the order that was the most interesting.

  5. It was all right, but the ending with that kid kissing the girl after she wasn't interested in being kissed earlier  annoyed me a lot.  That shit isn't cute or romantic.

  6. This is probably easier than making an individual topic for every episode. Especially since we're getting a full month of daily episodes starting July 18th! 

    (PS if you think of a more creative title for this thread, let me know.)

  7. It would be one thing if Erica just wrote it unprovoked, but Geoff had been pestering her all year and not taking a hint. I don't think I would have written something all that great in his yearbook either if it had been me in that situation. 

  8. Finally some of Lapis' backstory! It's a lot simpler than some people imagined, but in some ways that makes it sadder. It seems like she was just a civilian who got caught up in the war and got royally screwed over. 

    I do wish they had waited a bit longer to bring Peridot into the mix, like maybe next episode.  It would have been nice to see Lapis have a few minutes to be happy with her decision instead of becoming upset again immediately.

  9. Ugh no. The finale was going great until the reveal with Erica. There's nothing more I hate than the "keep trying and eventually the girl who is repulsed by you will love you" trope. And now we're probably getting a love triangle, yay.

  10. 7 hours ago, placate said:

    I've seen the 90's version can you recommend when to pick up the 2011 dub?  I'd like to skip the hunter exam part.

    The Zoldyck arc begins episode 22 so I'd say that's a good point to pick it up. Though if you want to get the setup for the Zoldyck arc you might want to start with episode 20.
