That upset me too. I was glad that Austin kept pressing her about what she wanted. She's still young and comes from a controlled environment. She's probably been taught that submissiveness, so I'm glad that Austin cared enough to ask her several times about her wishes.

Still it boggles me, and this probably belongs in a discussion of religion overall, but why are churches bashed for good works? Even we Catholics don't believe you get to heaven through works alone, but if you're faith is in Christ wouldn't you be compelled by your beliefs to do good work in his name?

I don't remember Derick calling Izzy sinful in that message. He did use manipulative, and toddlers generally ARE manipulative. I've always read his tweets and instagrams as someone who has little experience with small children and so is surprised/confused/bothered by his child's actions even though his behavior is completely normal.

Really disappointed in the Catholic hate. I don't like that its rearing it's ugly head again, along with a lot of other kinds of hate. When my parents were relatively newly married they lived in SWVA/East TN and during a city parade the parents of the Catholic school kids had to march along side of them because of death threats - to children. In my own high school days, also in SWVA, I was told by a friend, a local preacher's son, that he had "sympathetic love" for me because I was going to hell when I died. Because I was Catholic. That was 35 years ago. Thought we'd moved on.

Looked like flower bunches to me. Combined with the elaborate candles and the window screen it reminded me of Hogwarts tbh. Not sure why there were so many floating things and so many up high too. Looked like they had planned a fall wedding and ended up with it happening in the early summer. I did like the general look of the wedding and the cake and stuff looked nice.

I don't think she looks rough at all. She looks like her natural self, without all of the makeup, and I think she looks quite pretty to be honest.

I don't know. Joy grew up surrounded by boys during the daytime at least. She was a true tomboy and you always saw her doing whatever her brothers did. My guess is that she knew Austin from family visits and Gothard circles, and that they got to know each other from hanging out as kids. He's the right age to have been friends with her older brothers. He's probably had an eye on her for a while now, he looks totally smitten in their pics. I don't think he's her Jeremy, but at least she's comfortable enough in the relationship that she can tell him to "stop" on their wedding day. Not high romance, but respect for each other goes a long way.

Sign me up for the Mantooth train too. I had such a crush on him! Two Gilmore Girls sightings, Emily Bergyl (Francie) and Liza Weil (Paris) as the girl who stabbed her unborn child and Mrs. Sobricki respectively.

Sad indeed.

Anton Yelchin as the boy who's parents were killed in the car accident. He cries over his mother's body.

There are lots of people who make it through school without falling in love with books. Many are thrilled to be out of school so they never have to read another one. How nice that Jeremy is sharing his love of books with her, he seems to be expanding her horizons a bit. I doubt the Duggars are allowed to have an original thought, pretty sure those are knocked out of them during their early years and if that doesn't take then they're sent away to "camp" to learn to think like everyone else.

My toes prefer to be free too so generally no shoes in my house either. If I could get away with it I'd never wear them. Until God made Crocs my shoes were shucked at the door and I was barefoot until the next day. Now I'll slide on my Crocs on a chilly day so the feets stay warm - close enough to barefoot for me.

Same for me. Lots of rewinding of that VCR tape ;) Clooney and Margulies looked thrilled to be back together again too. I always thought the storyline was a little ham-fisted, but it didn't seem nearly as bad today.

Looks like maybe they were going for a beach look with the hair and makeup. Their hair just doesn't keep the look for long. Think everyone's makeup looked good.

The dress seems far too froufy for Joy, I expected either cleaner lines or a more bohemian look. She looks like a little girl playing at being a bride.

I thought it was a matter of Carol not really wanting him there at the time? She didn't call to tell him she was pregnant, ended up sending a fax. She did call him after the babies were born, but not before. I've always been confused as to why he needed to immediately head to Seattle. I know they had to make room for Carol to date other people and Doug still being at home would have ruined that. But they could have given it a few weeks and had it be a mutual decision.

Did the writers change at this point? Season 5 wasn't nearly so dreadful.

I didn't like Alda's character as much here as I did on West Wing. Speaking of rewatching...

Haven't rewatched this one yet. Completely felt what the mother was going through and understood Doug's need to do something, anything, to stop the suffering. But I didn't get his risking his own clinic, the federal funding, or Carol's clinic to allow the mother to hasten Ricky's death. He should have taken the risk on himself, surely there was a way to handle that.

Same here. The bath scene from yesterday is one of my all-time favorites, but I know that by the end of the week he'll be gone. I pretty much stopped watching after that the first time around - peeking in from time-to-time to see what Carol was up to, and then quit altogether after Carol left. I just wasn't that interested in Mark or Kerry, still somewhat interested in Carter but didn't like the way he treated Lucy, loved Kellie Martin but didn't think much of Lucy, etc. And I recall being irked that they wrote Clooney out early in the season rather than having him finish it out, as he was willing to do, all to give a boost to Anthony Edwards and Mark. Seemed like every week after that there'd be an ad for ER saying "and a hero emerges!" wrt to Mark and some new crisis. And then the revenge copters took over.

That was what I liked about the early seasons of ER and why I stopped watching later on. ER was much more true-to-life in the early seasons. You dealt with traumas and serial rapists, but you also had croup and minor household accidents. There weren't any revenge helicopters to be found.

I'd remembered Charlie, but forgotten it was Kirsten Dunst who played her. Good storyline.

Wasn't Shep not working because he was required to get the anger management treatment? I seem to remember Carol being irked because he was just sitting around all day and not taking care of business.

I enjoyed the road trip episode because of Clooney, and because of Doug telling Mark off. I never did like Mark and all of this trauma/drama didn't help matters. And Cynthia WAS annoying.

I remembered Cynthia but had forgotten she was played by Mariska Hargitay.
