  1. The thing that struck me was when Blake said that he wanted Brian and Joshua to perform acoustically so that the other three judges could really hear what they could do. There really is no doubt that Blake wants every singer to have the most success they can possibly have both on and off the show.

  2. The woman playing Lemon and Magnolia's mom was Meredith Monroe, who played Andi McPhee on Dawson's Creek. It took me a few minutes to place her. I had no idea she was 45! Holy shit.

     

    Especially since I'm pretty sure that Joshua Jackson dated Jamie King right around the same time as or not long after Meredith Monroe was playing his love interest.

  3. I wonder if she's planning on keeping this house for herself rather than flip it, she doesn't usually spend money on furniture, or anything really.

     

    I was wondering the same thing last week and there were several things in this episode made it sound even more possible. Maybe she's going to move their after Ethan graduates from high school.

  4. I hadn't thought about AB and Joel as a pairing until I read this thread and now it's something I truly want. Joel loved Bluebell and they did really sell Zoe and Joel not working out long distance because they weren't meant to be. It would be so easy to establish that AB could be Joel's first choice if they got together and made the long distance work when he had to travel for work. Zoe would be legitimately happy for them.

  5. I don't want Lavon and AB to end up together, because he's still in love with Lemon. AB shouldn't be anyone's second choice.

     

     

    Yes, they've killed the chance of Lavon and AB even before Lavon more recently recognizing that he still loves Lemon. AB made it quite clear what she was looking for and Lavon is just never going to be that for her. As much as I wanted those two to end up together at one point, it would take an unbelievable amount of retconning to make them work.

  6. Gina Rodriguez continues to be the best thing ever. I could watch her face show every emotion. She ran through quite a few of them in this episode.

     

    Cunnilingus, or at least implied cunnilingus, seems to be showing up on TV at a much higher rate lately. This is a good development.

  7. And this was exactly what I was afraid of when watching the Boston season. There seems to be such an inferiority/little brother complex to NYC, that anything Bostonian needs validation and propped up like, "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! I'm special too!!!!"

     

    I'm still kind of pulling for a Minneapolis season even though I don't think it will ever happen. We're more like "Here are some things we like about our area." And then people go "Those things are pretty great!" and we're like "We're glad you like it. We like it, too. Thank you for being here!" Also, the Twin Cities have a great food scene.

  8. Unless it was one of the four publicized in the Hobby Lobby controversy that can cause an abortion, you're right that it would be too late for a contraceptive.

     

    None of the contraceptives objected to by Hobby Lobby actually cause an abortion. They just prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterine wall. There are medications that will cause an abortion that can typically be used in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy and that is most likely what Dr. Alver gave Jane a prescription for.

  9. I have that problem with the later books . I'm pretty good with the first 4 books . I thinks it's because I discovered the books while in highschool and these 4 books were available then and I was a typical obsessive teenager . I was reading and re-reading them for a months .

     

    Agreed. The Fiery Cross came out my senior year of high school and I remember slogging through it between AP class homework but I think I always had one of the first four checked out of the library at any given time.

     

    I think another reason that the first four are easier to keep apart is that you just have to remember which of our main players are around. Book One: Jamie and Claire are in Scotland. Book Two: Jamie and Claire are mostly in France and then back in Scotland for the rebellion. Book Three: Claire goes back. Book Four: Bree and Roger go back in time.

  10. I'm watching more TV than could possibly be healthy. I've wholly bought into the abundance of comic book shows that we now have on the air and the CW line up seems particularly strong this fall. I am a 30 year-old woman who watches a lot of the CW and ABC Family and I'm not afraid to admit it.

  11. So it sounds like they latched onto dedicating a lot of episode 8 to Frank's search for Claire pretty early on in the writing process. I really wish that they would have backed off of it as they went on. I'm not against breaking Claire's point of view but there was just too much Frank in this episode.

  12. I was distracted by the sign for Craigh Na Dun right as Frank turned the car.  5 Miles with an arrow pointing to the side?  Wouldn't Scotland's signage be in km ?

     

    The United Kingdom still uses the imperial system for road signs and they didn't really start using the metric system for much at all until the 1960s. Using km would have been a huge anachronism.

  13. I have been stuck in the middle of this book for 4 years.

    I have decided since watching the series, Im going to start over... :)

     

    If you find yourself getting stuck again, I highly recommend the audiobooks. Just make sure to get the unabridged versions with Davina Porter as the narrator. I've probably only read some of the books two times tops but I've listened to them a few other times while working.

  14. I miss when Ask Ausiello used to provide actual spoilers. Yes, the fact that they would need to cast Jamie and Claire's 20 year-old daughter for the second season of the show is a pretty big spoiler for a non-book reader but it's info that a person could easily get/infer just by asking a book reader. I was hoping to see a rumored actress.
