  1. MY condolences on your loss. I have lung cancer (good results so far from treatment.) THe last scene with Vik and Helen was really hard for me and my husband to watch. I was hoping he’d change his mind about treatment. His statement that he wants more life is exactly why refusing treatment was never an option for me, and why I never ask the docs about a prognosis. I also think we are being prepared for a Helen and Noah reconciliation, and I’m fine with that.
  2. A banner at at the gymnastics meet said 1982. And the meth head girls.
  3. Do we know where the other inmates are? Sophia? Big Boo? Yoga Jones? Leanne and her meth head friend?
  4. How many seasons are available on Netflix? Just the 5? Where can the other seasons be viewed?
  5. I cannot believe how hard I ugly cried over the death of a fake CGI tiger.
  6. Lyric said: "Those two are such solid, compelling actors. Billie Lourd - not so much." Agree....Billie Lourd is terrible. She has literally zero facial expressions.
  7. I can't stand them. Their characters are the most unlikable. Even the tiny bit of comic relief they used to provide is tiresome. I haven't watched beyond this episode, so I'm really hoping they get a karma smack down when it's all over.
  8. Timeline question: where is Gus' product being made at this point, and who is making it? No super lab and no Gale yet, right?
  9. Wow. This episode packed some punches (no pun intended.) Go ahead and engrave Lori Petty's name on an Emmy. I'm so sad for Lolly, and I hope that the character isn't disappearing forever. I am so angry about these freaking guards. True, they're working in a prison, but it's a minimum-security prison for crying out loud. They're all on such a power trip and they're all so sadistic and cruel. I wonder how long Piper and Blanca would have stayed on the table if not for the lock down. I hope that there's some sort of a comeuppance for these guards in the end. So, who or what was in the corn field while Coates was sitting post?
  10. During the bar scene, I wondered how many times we saw Mike smile like that in BB? Not many, for sure. Agree completely. I would have disagreed with you at the end of last season, but now I'm hooked into Jimmy's and Kim's and Chuck's and Mike's stories. I don't need to see Saul any time soon. All of the discussion upthread about Ernesto maybe being the connection between Jimmy/Saul and Gus Fring,and that Saul really didn't know Fring that well, made me realize that I've been mistaken about that. I remembered it differently than it actually happened, and I had to look it up: I would have bet that Saul and Fring had a closer business relationship than they really did. Huh. I guess it's been awhile.
  11. This is pretty terrible. I was fully hooked and invested in the story by the middle of season 1 of TWD. I can't stick with this. I can't figure out why it's so bad compared to TWD. Ultimately, it's a lot of the same people on the creative side. I was actually kinda intrigued by a story of the beginnings of the ZA. This is not what I wanted. THAT is what I wanted. I agree the the only character I'm remotely interested in is Strand. Zombie being killed by an outboard motor was kinda cool. Might save these next few episodes to watch later on if the buzz gets more positive.
  12. That single-take opening sequence was true art. Absolutely brilliant. I hope they talk about it on the podcast. I cannot wait to see how the altered documents play out. Random thought: While looking at IMDB last night, I noticed that they describe BCS as taking place 6 years before the events of BB. That makes me so confused about Kaylee. She seems to be a much older child in BCS than what we saw in BB, yet she's supposed to be younger...6 years younger! She only seemed to be about 5 or 6 the few times we saw her in BB, so she should be an infant, or at least a toddler in BCS. It's just one of those things I'm not going to be able to not notice.
  13. I wish we had a better opportunity to see this. I'm really interested in elements of his character other than being a stone cold killer. I hated the Governor, but we got to see how he manipulated his people. Maybe next season...
  14. My main disappointment is that, other than a monologue about how much of a killer he is, we didn't really get much of a sense of Negan and why he has such a following. I keep hearing that he's such a charismatic character, and I really wish we could have seen a little taste of that last night.
  15. I almost had a panic attack myself when Carol was hyperventilating. That made me so uncomfortable and anxious, I was doing deep yoga breaths. When Molls saw that Carol had a rosary, Carol looked like she was trying to eat it. I thought maybe she was trying to play like she was mentally challenged in some way so they'd let their guard down around her. What was she doing?
  16. I had that same thought until I remembered that I know how it all ends. Beautifully lit, beautifully filmed, and beautifully played. I know it had to be Michael McKean really playing there. How they managed to get a clean take on that is beyond me. Again, I felt so sad for both of them because I'm afraid their relationship won't make it because of something Saul-like that Jimmy does. And then I remembered I know how it ends. I'm so glad this show exists.
  17. "It's more important to be a good person than to be famous." How did David Schwimmer not throw up when he said that? I feel like that's exactly what they'll do, with a wink wink nudge nudge. Blech. I don't keep up with the Kardashians at all, but I know them because they're famous. And they're famous because they're famous. And I hate that.
  18. Oh, me too! I said exactly the same thing. I also decided that I want to be a con artist. Fun fact: Davis and Main is an intersection in the Fan neighborhood of Richmond, VA (Gilligan's hometown). It's formerly the site of a restaurant named after the intersection that has since closed. http://www.yelp.com/biz/davis-and-main-richmond The first time they mentioned Davis and Main on the show, I kept thinking about the restaurant. But it's closed! Jimmy can't go work there! If you live in RVA like me, you'll notice shout outs to the area in BB and BCS. Someone upthread mentioned that they are getting more curious about Gene. I thought that, too. Considering Gilligan/Gould & Co. can take as long as they need to tell Jimmy's story, why not tell us a Gene story, too.
  19. OMG. Still trying to process all that is wrong with that scenario. Makes me want to bleach my brain. Noah has become the slimiest slimeball who ever slimed. Yuck. I noticed that, too. Whitney was pretty serious about not wanting him referred to as Uncle Max. I wonder if Max has come on to Whitney, or if he's her supplier, or if he introduced her to the "photographer" who says she should be a model? Well, then, Helen wouldn't have had a reason to show her "Look at my sweet kids. I love being a mom" face after she told Doc Tinder that she sometimes wishes she wasn't a mom.
  20. "Your dad was an asshole." Carl drops the mic.
  21. What is the general consensus on making Thanksgiving sides ahead of time and reheating? I saw a rather spirited debate on this on a Washington Post message board. Apparently, there are some very strong feelings on both sides. I am cooking Thanksgiving dinner this year and really want to make the dressing and corn casserole on Wednesday and reheat on Thursday. I don't see a problem with this, especially if I add a little chicken broth to the dressing before heating. I'm also ordering the mashed potatoes from the grocery store. I totally suck at making mashed potatoes.
  22. As did I. I thought the guys were pulling boards off the tower to use as lumber for the wall reinforcements. der, der, der. BTW...where are they getting all this lumber? So...Deanna's kinda weird, right? She basically skips up to Rick and Michonne, "look what I made! plans!" Rick says, "um...we've got kind of another thing we have to deal with." Michonne takes the plans from Deanna like you'd take a scribble drawing from a 3 year old, "nice, thank you!" Michonne was looking at them later on, but I couldn't tell if she was seriously considering what great ideas Deanna has or seriously considering that Deanna is cuckoo for cocoa puffs.
  23. OMG...my hubby has been shouting that ever since that episode. I'm not going to be happy with an Abraham/Rosita/Sasha luv triangle. Who's got time for that in the ZA?
  24. Abraham: "Loose ends make my ass itchy." I hear ya, brother.
