I think he's been dead for around 20 years. It was a strange topic for a SNL monologue in 2025.

At least in Philadelphia, I know of at least one hospital that will not even hire tobacco users anymore. Though Dana said she had been at the Pitt for 30 years, so she would be grandfathered in if they had that policy. Sandra Oh wasn't on ER, but I think both ER and Grey's Anatomy did variations of that storyline.

I have leftover love for Donna Lynne Champlin after Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but I am with you. I thought we were going to find out she had a diagnosis of Early Onset Alzheimer's, instead of MS, given how weirdly she was acting at times. I also appreciated how that wine bottle was thrown up in the air and landed on a hard surface, all without breaking. As a side note, I have family that is from Council Bluffs (for those that don't know, it's just across the bridge from Omaha), so I appreciated the shout out.

It's an interesting theory, but I don't know how he could arrange for another football player to tackle Wally too hard, for a specific kind of oil to be used to cook the french fries so Charlie would have an allergic reaction or for the bus with the band members to have an accident on the ice. It was funny they brought up Nightmare on Elm Street with the whole Friday the 13th vibe they had going with Mr. Martin at the cabin. I also laughed at Charlie and Yuri's homage to the pottery scene from Ghost.

S01.E12: Typhoid Georgie
txhorns79 replied to chitowngirl's topic in Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage
It's one of CBS' highest rated shows. I do feel like she is written sometimes as though she is less mature than Georgie. However, that might just be because they live with her parents and the dynamic that creates. -
S01.E12: Typhoid Georgie

I think Mandy is written and wardrobed like someone a lot younger than she actually is. Half the time I forget she is supposed to be in her 30s. -
S01.E12: Typhoid Georgie
txhorns79 replied to chitowngirl's topic in Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage
The hug between Georgie and George was very sweet. Then they really ruined the moment with the Zombie George. It did feel like it was closer to something she'd wear on a date than to work. I know the sleeveless, form-fitting look is popular now for female tv reporters, but I'd probably have expected something a little looser with a jacket. -
I know that Sheryl Lee Ralph is 68, but how old is Barbara supposed to be?
-
They can insist all they want, but it isn't as though they can force the patient back into the chair if the patient gets up and walks away.
-
Yes, I expected some kind of setback, not another shrug of the shoulders when a patient is deceived into having blood taken and tests performed. What would have happened if the woman was positive? Would Amy not have told her?
-
Same thought, particularly when Ron was just going to have him sit in the bed waiting for his insurance to clear and CT to open up. You have dozens of pediatric patients waiting to hear the guy Ron! Give him some special treatment so he can do the performing he is there to do! It's good acting meeting half-baked storylines. For example, it's sweet to watch Alex go into nurse mode to help uninsured patients get care, while also impressing her daughter. Both the actors sell it. The reality of that situation is that Alex and Ron just had their last day at the hospital because they fraudulently charged thousands of dollars in procedures under the special code. It wouldn't be like in the storyline where Joyce just shrugs away the charges as being odd.

My impression was that the pulse was moving slowly enough so the plane would get to the bunker before it hit. I did understand why Cal wanted to tell people the truth, but I do think that was a big mistake in the end. Just at the White House, you saw the chaos he unleashed, so I can only imagine what that would have been like everywhere else. I also felt like Cal and Xavier should have kissed at some point during their screaming match on the runway. I know the show isn't going that way, but it felt appropriate at that particular moment.

She was pretty rattled and near falling apart during last week's episode. She thinks she is control now, which is why her entire attitude has changed.

Shane might not have been sexually interested, but he and his mother had all kinds of issues. She showed up on his honeymoon! Or he took as much money as he could access and fled once he heard about what did happen. I think if he is going by a different name, it seems more likely he is on the run from the authorities. I think he just knows how to write women, and this happens to be a show where many of the characters end up being horrible.

They feel so real to me, and shows the danger of traveling in a group of three. First you start off by talking about how wonderful the missing person is, then it turns into trash talking, followed by a restatement of how wonderful they are! The North Carolina family remains the worst. The lack of boundaries between the kids is creepy. At this point, I'm just preparing to be disgusted by all of them. Not sure what to make of that robbery. I'm surprised a resort that seems so expensive doesn't have better security. As a small note, I did want someone to give Jason Isaacs a second take when he was screaming into the phone at his business partner. His real accent came out pretty clearly!

S01.E11: Working for the Enemy
txhorns79 replied to chitowngirl's topic in Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage
Yes, it's almost an admission by the writers that Georgie and Mandy are not interesting enough characters to center a sitcom around. So little happens episode to episode, and it feels like the writers don't really have anywhere to go with them. I mean, what's the excitement here? Looking forward to Georgie and Mandy eventually divorcing? For me, the best episodes have been the ones that brought back the Young Sheldon cast, and you can really see what is missing. -
It's certainly possible, but it does seem like a pretty big leap to make for someone who has just started working with him. If there was a history between them and she had noticed changes in his performance or something, then maybe, but she just met the guy and just started on the floor! That's a heck of an accusation for a first day! I also feel like they have presented the doctors and nurses as very competent, so if a doctor was stealing drugs or working while high, they would notice. It's not a competition between storylines. I thought the information was interesting, but it did feel a bit like the show was taking a moment to teach a lesson.
-
That risks her asking to speak with Maddie, showing up, or insisting that Maddie immediately come home. I do find the ghost relationships more interesting than the living ones. That would be my guess. Maybe that's also why Maddie found the exit, because she's not really a ghost and doesn't have scars like the other ones do.
-
Didn't they say the patient's cystic fibrosis would have left him unable to have children? They really do seem to be rushing things. Her recovery from what would have been a very traumatic accident was over, aside from the amnesia, in what, two or three episodes? She's mostly made peace with her ex-husband and daughter, she's gotten to grieve her dead son (again!) and now she's busy making peace with the doctors who hated her.

The drowned little girl was tough. My heart ached for that grandmother. Nothing will ever be the same for her. She will replay those events over and over in her head for the rest of her life. She will never forgive herself, even if not a single person blames her for what happened.

S01.E12: Buffalo Bruce and Matty the Kid
txhorns79 replied to chitowngirl's topic in St. Denis Medical
This is something that I dislike about the show, when the characters are stupid, or behave in a stupid fashion, simply for the sake of a joke. I was confused why Bruce was doing the exam. Isn't he a surgeon? -
S01.E12: Buffalo Bruce and Matty the Kid
txhorns79 replied to chitowngirl's topic in St. Denis Medical
I think it was renewed for another season. I felt bad for the cat. -
Yes, you knew that was coming. Though I wouldn't trust a word Sinatra says. On the positive side, I thought Julianne Nicholson did a great job showing Sinatra falling apart in the face of a direct challenge, and really showing just how vulnerable and weak the character is when cornered by things she can't control. I also rolled my eyes at the entire take down plan being a weird tribute to Die Hard. Brooklyn 99 had a variation/running joke as to Die Hard across its seasons, and this just felt like a rip off. Also a big eyeroll at Xavier's daughter, of course, not following the plan, and easily falling into enemy hands. And I get that Jane is a killer and is supposedly a bad ass assassin, but it is so hard to take her seriously. The actress plays her cover like she is at the maturity level of a very young teenager. That might disarm people, but it would be hard to believe she could be in the Secret Service.

They aren't. The site apparently has a list of forbidden words and can't differentiate between the last name of the actress and a racist term. It's dumb.
