I'm halfway through: Was Isabella a secret because she was kept in a bubble for her entire life? What makes her think 20 minutes into learning she has a sister and is part-owner of a bar at 24 or WTFever that she should get to change everything? I know they have 20 minutes or so to set everything up in a pilot, but this is going extra hard and awkward. "I was hoping to find a place where I belonged." An hour after these people first met you? Jesus.

S01.E01: The 6:10 to Lubbock
jmonique replied to SoMuchTV's topic in Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage
I wasn't a regular Young Sheldon watcher, so forgive me. But I don't think these two characters are Lead Characters. Mandy could have been, perhaps, but Georgie is way more limited right now. He's much better as the loveable but dimmer older brother who shines but doesn't have to carry the show with simple optimism. It feels like when they tried to spin off Joey to his own show. -
I do love that 3 years later, I still get notifications of likes about this comment. Hating Bev Season is here.

A season 2 really needs to include someone, anyone telling Esther she really needs to go fuck herself and then get her own life. Yeesh. Also, I really enjoyed watching Kristen Bell getting a chance to act like a functionalish adult. I loved Eleanor Shellstrop, but Joanne is way more like a person.

I'd have stayed far, far away if I were Maslany, as well. There's no surer way to crap on your best work than appear in a derivative knockoff. Also, I think Jules 2.0 is supposed to be the Rachel Duncan to Jules' Sarah. I'd have had far more tolerance for this show if it weren't Kira Manning printing people out. Jesus. Just set it in the same universe and use your own characters, show.

This show has never quite captured me, but I get bored during the summers, so I've followed along. Possible controversial theory: I would have preferred Ben and Kristen. Second thought: So we're just cool with demon baby, Kristen?

This Gold Star thing is soo stupid.

The FBI cutting and going through with a deal with a serial killer who also hasn't come through on his end of the deal remains the stupidest thing I've ever seen on this show. And that includes Garcia's outfits.
-
That's still mystifying to me - can anyone here name one FBI officer? Let alone a whole team to target and go through all the trouble of putting up a site of AI porn on the freakin' dark web?

Lord, I hate this season. One of the founders of the BAU is driven to near madness because of VOIGT? Seriously?

Is Randy sick? Also, is it just my family: He does a horrible job during Bid a Note. I don't play piano, admittedly, but he's the worst. It's nearly impossible to discern a song.

I'm binging this show, after first binging the mother ship. I decided I like Most Wanted better, and realized it's because there's more interesting scenes since this team gets to leave 26 Fed. I like Jeremy Sisto, but one can only bring so much vibrancy to barking orders at tech nerds in the same room every week. I don't know if you longtime watchers will remember this, but did you know Remy's brother was killed when he was 18? I figured I'd bring it up, since they were so subtle about it after he joined the show. 🤪 I do find it odd how this show memory holes cast members. I appreciate turnover because jobs like this have to have turnover and it makes it seem pretty real, but Jess's in-laws, Ivan, Hanna's brother, Kristin just disappearing. It's a lot when you watch the eps all in a row. To bring this up to date, normally I'd suspect Hanna's new boyfriend to be in some sort of cahoots with her momentary roommate, but since this show has no problems ditching characters, I don't know what to think. Also, I'm a thousand percent over Sheryl and Charlotte. Get divorced already.

Whew. I'm glad there were no rapes, molestations, kidnappings or whatnot going on in Manhattan that week, so they could dive into an ice cold case from Pennsylvania. Remember when the show used to be able to afford extras to make it look like there were others working cases in the office?

I just binged the whole series and OMG, how has Isobel not fired these jackasses 1,000 times over? The only one who can put aside personal BS and still do the job is Scola. Tiffany and especially OA and Maggie are useless, pig-headed and arrogant AF whenever they think they're right. How does OA still have a job after going against the orders of his boss and the Secretary of State of the United States of America? We get it, he was in the Army, but he's been doing this job way too long to act like he doesn't know people can be bad. Even military people. And finally, this is some impressive anti-chemistry OA and Gemma have. It's like watching 2 bricks try to spark.

The impression I got was that 10% of the insurance payment was much larger than Dan could have imagined, hence the glee. Did someone take the regular writing staff hostage and submit this one instead, in which people actually seemed to move forward in life? I'm totally expecting an inland hurricane to take out Ben next week -- this all seems too potentially positive for what these writers usually put characters through.
