That's if we believe the 98% accuracy assertions. And that it's "never been wrong." This might be a bit outside the episode but I've seen AI tools tout their accuracy (AI detectors for one) but external trials don't match their claims and there are circumstances that affect reliability. For AI detectors, it's whether or not English is someone's first language. The reason I'd like them to revisit this is because black men have been arrested solely on the basis of bad AI identification. They've spent time in jail before something comes up to take them put of contention. There was more circumstantial evidence in this case but it's a good case to do a ripped from the headlines message about AI and policing.

Prenups are for the division of assets and property. Children are neither. Child support payments and custody are not about what's best for the couple. They are about what's best for the child.

It doesn't make sense if it's solely a creative choice. But both make sense if either Kenneth Choi or Peter Krause want to leave the show. Both Chim and Bobby are in happy marriages with main characters played by Angela Bassett and Jennifer Love Hewitt. There's no easy way to write out Bobby or Chim and keep them alive if their on-screen love interests are going to still be around. At some point there will be a big story or a near death experience that would require them to show up for their family and it'd seem very odd if they don't. By the way, I am pretty sure Kenneth is sticking around and won't die. Peter Krause might be too, although he had hinted at only being able to do this show for so long which is why I'm preparing myself for both a real and fake death.

Yeah. I like that everyone in this show has plot armor. I do think there may be reasons to kill off a character but I don't want them to do it just for shock value. If an actor wants to leave, then I could see it happening if there's no good non-death way to write them off.

I have a love/hate relationship with this episode. I loved the part of the episode that followed the season-long thread. There was a lot of suspense and intrigue. I especially loved Billy and Sarah hearing Maddie's phone go off in Olympia's purse. On another show, that'd be the symbol of death. The part I hated was everything related to the marriage. The quick anullment was already discussed but there were other issues. For one, I know the husband is usually considered the father but she could get her one night stand to file for custody. Or work with the hospital to keep him away. But even if she didn't think she could make that happen, the whole prenup was bogus. You can't legislate custody through a prenup. Custody and child support is separate from marital property.

I actually felt he wasn't guilty and I hope they revisit this case. When is the last time we had the prosecution prosecute the wrong person only to reveal the real culprit towards the end? I feel like it has been a while. I used to love those cases in the original run. I actually don't think Riley should have mentioned that comment. What Shaw said was a philosophical opinion. I'm trying to remember but wasn't the shooter pretty far away to get blood on him? Inherent bias does work both ways but it doesn't disadvantage both ways. We didn't see Shaw do anything to prevent the case from going forward. He did do his job. But after sitting in court, he started to doubt the strength of the evidence and probably did have doubts about what was thrown into the river but deferred to the partner he trusted. A dogmatic adherence to initial conclusions is why the wrong people end up convicted. Maybe this guy is guilty but Shaw having questions isn't a character flaw, IMO.

I was under the impression that she didn't cause the error. It was one of Leslie's pseudonyms. That hospital would get sued so fast for their violations. There's no way that a stranger should be able to access a patient's file. I kind of thought Smitty and Martin were more believable as a couple today. I am wondering if they realized they had written Martin as a total jerk and so they're trying to back off of that. Especially with him deciding not to run for president.

I suspect she meant by a British designer. That's why they started at the boutique of that one designer before landing on the one she chose.

I wasn't loving the three episode arc but I ended up really enjoying the third episode in this story. I loved the dance off and that everyone got involved. I love that Betty is British. I have to say that Iantha Richardson was so good in her scene with Jeremy. She really nailed the desperation of a scared mother.

This is a celebrity thread not just an actors thread. At this point, she's a bit more than a random author. Like George RR Martin and Stephen King, she's reached celeb status.

You're right that accepting that money is morally questionable if Belinda feels like she's taking money from a murderer. Given how she behaves, she does feel that way. But Greg's actual culpability is separate from that. The exchange of money here is for her silence about his whereabouts. It's not a confession of his guilt.

She's not liable. She has zero first hand knowledge that Greg is culpable of any crime. The last time she saw them, they were going off together. She wasn't in Italy with them. She barely even recognized Greg. If I remember the headline in the paper correctly, all it said is that the Italian authorities wanted to speak to Tanya's husband about whether or not he was involved in the death but they couldn't find him. I don't think they ever said he was officially on the run from the Italian law. What Belinda has is knowledge of where Greg is. That's not a crime because Greg being in Thailand isn't necessarily a crime. It doesnt mean that at all. Greg has fuck around money because of Tanya's death. And when you have fuck around money, you can drop a few million to get someone to fuck off if it makes your life convenient. It's why companies will often choose to settle with someone even if they think they're 100% in the right. It ends up being cheaper and more convenient than trying to fight it. She would have to explain the taxes unless she had the money got into a Carribean account.

I thought the shots of Lochy in the water were stunning and almost made this season worth it. I'm glad he lived. I'm disappointed we didn't find out that Victoria didn't have hidden money. At the same time, I had to shake my head at Lochy making a smoothie without even rinsing the blender. I love the cynicism of Belinda's choice. I wouldn't mind seeing her again. I don't ever want to see Zion. But if he got caught, then who is going to pay for Jon Gries's next vacation? I'm not surprised he got away. I think this is going to be a thread that will be strung out through all seasons of The White Lotus until he's the last murder.

Bob Guza had some great stuff on General Hospital when he was helped out by his strong script writers. And Carlivati would flounder, mostly, but would sometimes have some good 'coming together' story moments before blowing the denouements. But it's important to remember that neither of these two are the head writers. Maybe Guza, given he's a producer, has some story say but the woman driving this is Michele Val Jean. She's driving the initial bible. Some people shouldn't be head writers. I think a lot of these stories have potential but there are still too many that feel like they're in limbo. I'd like at least one of them to advance at a faster pace. And I wish more characters got dialogue like Joey's on Friday. His explanation for his lie was just so utterly captivating. It was partly the performance but I think the writing was pretty terrific too.

I am not normally a one shoulder fan but I actually liked Dorothy's second dress. And I loved the fact that she met her fiance through his ex-wife. Probably since there was nothing 'surprising' about this to production unless they didn't want to be married officially. Did anyone else watch SYTTD with Tan French? It looks like it's a reboot of the British version. I miss Gok but I found myself enjoying this version too. For one, it was just nice to have so many brides. The American version has gotten so stingy. We only really had one bride look for a dress last night and Dorothy who had a dress and tried on one that replaced it. The British version had three brides with different needs.
