  1. The end left me thirsty for the next book but not yelling out loud like book 7. Argh! Brianna also finally became a likable character and loved seeing Claire's modern BFF Joe Abernathy again. I so wish Jamie could travel. I'd hoot out loud at his response to modern life. Snort!
  2. Hee! A grown Fergus bowing down at her feet crying, "Milady! Milday!" and her responding with something like, "I'm not a prostitute!" And then realizes who he is.
  3. I thought the acting was fine, but was bothered with how much was changed from the book. They made it too soapy I'm surprised the folks who've mentioned North and South haven't mentioned Brendan Coyle being in it. :D Also an Outlander fan here. Read the books first years ago while browsing at the library and got sucked in and addicted. The casting for the show has been excellent.
  4. Makes me think of Wharton's "The Buccaneers." The mini-series is pretty good though much grittier than DA. You can find it on Netflix and Youtube. Carla Gugino and Mira Sorvino are in it. I think Mira's Conchita is supposed to be inspired by Consuelo Vanderbilt who was part of the Marlborough set.
  5. Agree. When I got married, I had a British mom reply on behalf of her kid as "master so and so" on the RSVP.
  6. I would love Henry and Tom's car biz become fabulously successful and be the next Rolls Royce, Bentley, Jaguar, etc. According to Wikipedia, Jaguar was founded in 1922 by two men. Let's fudge that a few years and it be Talbot and Branson and they named it Jaguar because Mary's tendency to whip out her claws. lol It becomes a reason that the abbey doesn't go into disrepair. And later, Marigold inherits the magazine and becomes a publishing Grande Dame.
  7. Lord G has not shown himself to be a wise investor. Do they lose it all in 1929? ;)
  8. Uh oh! I had red and white flowers at mine. LOL I know both families know of Marigold's parentage, but how are they going to explain her to others? People in the village, London, extended family? Don't remember if that was addressed.
  9. Even after rereading the books after a not looking at them for months, I pick up things I never noticed before. There's a lot going on in this series. I think if you read them, you'll find that Diana doesn't write in a black and white world. There's many shades of gray. :)
  10. Was a book reader before seeing the show. That does make things mega complex for Claire.
  11. I liked Anna, but just not as a romantic rival for Seth and I like the actress on her own as well. Ugh. Hated Oliver though. LOL *Another* guy who inexplicably falls at Marissa's feet?
  12. This sounds mean and I don't intend it that way, but there's no way Chanel 5 is a size 4. No way.
  13. LOVED that!! Yep, dead on as a sorority girl of the mid 1990s. Wish they'd get Gigi's clothes correct. Hers are out of the 80s.
  14. For a mere $1200, it's 40% off. ;) http://www.matchesfashion.com/us/products/1011134You know the wardrobe person has a blast with this show. Heck, I almost tune only to see what they're going to wear. lol
  15. I'm beginning to not care about the identity of the tub baby(ies). Were Wes and the 'Waterfalls' chick ever married? I can't remember if they said. I always assumed they were. What do we know about Tub Mom? RIP Candle Jennifer. So who was the RD that got Boone out of the morgue? Since Gigi wears a different disguise I assume it wasn't her. I'm guessing tonight was her first time in 'uniform' and probably helps organize things. The Chanels seem too small and waifish to be the other RD. I could buy Dean being one of them since she's tall so I'll go with Chad or Pete.
  16. I loved Autumn/Taylor. Heck, I've watched stuff just because I knew she'd be in it. She's got charisma, talent and had chemistry with the cast. Mischa was a drag.
  17. Brielle has a degree of charisma and if she gets an education (girl, seriously, go. to. college.) and interns, she shouldn't have a problem. G Rancic has zero charisma and has a broadcast job, but she worked her way up and even has a Master's degree in journalism. If she pays her dues, I'm sure Kroy has some friends in sports broadcasting who can get her in touch with the right people. She's got all the connections, but with no education, it's no help.
  18. This show is starting to lose me. IMO, this was the lamest ep so far. Why is Z mysteriously missing? Enough of the Nancy Drew meta stuff. JLC is even pathetic.
  19. It's not unheard of for an 18 year old to be a virgin. I guess I can understand the doubt since her mom used to spread her legs for presents from Big Poppa.
  20. Not sure if this is the right spot for this, but stream it online for free! http://www.cwseed.com/shows/the-oc/
  21. Funny list about SQ and real sororities: http://totalsororitymove.com/25-things-scream-queens-got-wrong-about-sorority-life
  22. That's why I predict K and K will run out of money unless Kroy gets real on Kim and Brielle. Kim and her eldest have no concept of economics.
  23. Was hoping the explanation for the earmuffs would have been more clever. Say... her ears look like Charles Manson's or something. Not some lame ex-boyfriend.
  24. http://www.shopyourtv.com features a lot of the SQ stuff. I love the outrageous clothes. :)
  25. I didn't know about him until his association with Wig and I live in Atlanta, but I don't keep up with football.
