  1. MadRat I don't think the girls were rude to Charlotte then (at the table when Samantha asked Miranda). Samantha wasn't telling Miranda to do anything she was asking a valid question. Had they excluded Charlotte and tipped toed around her I would have been annoyed. It should be Charlotte's choice to give her opinion, opt out of the convo etc, as they were all friends and shared these things with each other. NOR do I think Charlotte was rude for saying she wasn't going to sit there and talk about it because of her own issues which I think the girls respected. I don't mean to make light of anyone's struggles with infertility, but that doesn't mean that others have to choose to procreate because their friends are having a hard time conceiving. I think the true friendship of the girls showed through then. You may disagree with your friends but you stand by them and trust them 100%.
  2. Thank you for your kind words! It's sad that friend was in an abusive unhealthy relationship with another guy for YEARS and I am somewhat relieved- despite the bad situation I no longer fear for her safety or anything like that with the father (the new guy). I would be up for a rewatch this summer! The TWOP forums shut down on my BFFs bday May 31. I so feel like Samantha guys, everyone is having babies and I'm the Childfree career woman, although I could never have as much sex as Samantha had, my life is very tame in that aspect.
  3. Hi everyone. I am a TWOP refugee (same screen name) and I have enjoyed talking with you all about the show. I come to the board today because I'm not allowed to tell anyone in my "real life" yet and I am bursting. My BFF (since we were 15 so childhood relationship, I'm a pseudo only child and she is an only child so you can imagine our dynamic) told me last night that she's pregnant and she's more likely than not having the baby (which means she's having the baby duh). It's FAR from an ideal situation, the father is in a bitter custody battle with his soon to be ex-wife for their two kids (he has filed for divorce and they have been in proceedings almost a year) as well as my BFF not being a stable place in her own career etc. I expressed my feelings about the situation, it not being an ideal time etc but said that this was her decision and my job is to be her BFF and I always do my job. I had a totally SATC moment, in season 4 when Charlotte comes over with flowers even after she was very upset with Miranda because she is trying so hard to conceive (I am not trying to conceive or anything like that!) and when Miranda says to her "I didn't go through with it, I'm having the baby." And Charlotte starts to cry "we are having a baby." I felt like that 100% yesterday!! We are having a baby guys!!!!!!! We are having a baby! New life! More family! If this little one comes on Halloween and ruins my night out there will be hell to pay. Lol.
  4. I don't think Bronn betrayed Tyrion either. Even book!Bronn at this point was quite fond of Tyrion but he knew he had no chance of going up against The Flipping MOUNTAIN and coming out alive. Show!Bronn does like Tyrion and enjoy his company but isn't willing to go on a suicide mission for him, and I can't say I blame him.
  5. Howdy, I have started my season 1 re-watch in prep for season 2. With the Being Human Finale last night this is my only "must see" in Syfy. I am glad to have a new place to discuss the show and looking forward to all of your insights (TWOP refugee here).
  6. I thought Jaime had lost his mind when he suggested that in AFFC. I don't think Show!Jamie is that unhinged. I always thought Jaime loved Cersei more than she loved him, and her total coldness to him for having "one hand" is ridiculous. If she had any sense she would be telling him she is so glad to have him back but their sexual relationship is no more given the war, court atmosphere and their FATHER being right under their noses. However if you human nature is any indication it's hard for people who have been sleeping together since their teen years to stop because they are "supposed to". I noticed two references to Jaime being 40. Aging up everyone (not just the children) puts a new spin on Tywin's desire to have Cersei remarry, especially to Loras a young man with no children. Lady Olenna is correct, at 40 that's a bad prize for the heir of HighGarden. No doubt Cersei is a great beauty, wealthy and well bred but her prime baby making days are over. Not that she COULDNT have another child or two but why would you risk that for someone with no children. It would make more sense for Tywin to want to marry her to a widower for a military alliance. Aging up Jaime means that physically he has hit his peak and now has an injury. Not that he's not a bad ass or that 40 is old (it's not, Ser Barristan is in his 60s and still kicking butt) but at 40 he needs to DO or DIE- the choices he makes now will dictate the rest of his life. I like that they brought it up. P.S. Cersei I doubt Loras wants to be married to you either.
  7. I loved the epsiode. Oberyn and Ellaria were great, Tyrion is obviously affected by all the shit that's gone down, Sansa is doing her best to hold herslef together and Joffrey is a little psycho shit as usual. Show!Cersei is much more nuanced and sympathetic than Book!Cersei but her logic here made no sense. Her darn coldness and hostility towards Jamie for "getting captured". It would be one thing if she were having qualms about their relationship given the incestous treason kind of lead to a WAR and she is realizing the consequences of her actions but I don't think that's it, I think she is pouting like a spoiled child because Jaime can't possibly understand her "stress".....I mean damn, he is still your brother lady.
  8. I was fortunate enough to attend the panel at Comic Con last year, I had a blast. I cannot wait for Season 2 but yes I will have to re-watch before the premiere.
  9. Hello I am a TwoP refugee! Nice to meet everyone. Happy to have a place to discuss our show, as soon as anyone knows of if/when another station begins airing it again. I just haven't been able to bring myself to purchase the DVDs, the original music is too important to the plot .
