True but how old was his wife then? Were they still having children or were they married in name only at this point? We can never know but telling his mistress he is waiting for his wife to die for them to be together is giving false hope to something that may not happen unless his wife is terminally ill. There have been married men who give their mistresses empty promises. "I'm waiting for the wife to die. I'm waiting for the kids to grow up." The mistress wait and wait for years and nothing happens. He could've been sincere but there could've been another side to this not so sincere.

Sam Waterston has accumulated many roles and wealth where he doesn't have to put in the grind like other actors if he doesn't want to. Maybe he wants to do something that requires less time or is different than a procedural drama. Watch his interview on the Today Show. He is ready to move on from Jack McCoy. Sam Waterston did Frankie and Grace and the Elizabeth Holmes movie so there are other things out there for him. Wow. Way to put words in my mouth. Your arrogance and rudeness is raging. We're talking about an actor leaving a TV show. It's not that serious. I did state I could be wrong but I thought something was mentioned in season 21 or 22 but since those aren't available on Peacock I can't go back and confirm. My impression also came from Sam Waterston and Anthony Anderson returning for the revival. Based on interviews, it was my impression their return was temporary.

Now his daughter can't try to guilt him into letting her win a case next time. I thought since the revival they were hinting at Jack retiring but maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe Jack in his 40s and 50s would put up a fight but Jack in his 80s may think differently and want to leave the fighting for the next generation and spend his time enjoying retirement and working on his relationship with his family.

I don't know Illiza Sheslinger but her story was nice. As for Bob Odenkirk, am I the only one to think his royal ancestor who promised to marry his mistress when his wife died was lying? It was common for men to die first during that time. I don’t remember if he was older than his wife but I wouldn’t be shock if he told his mistress that to please her while keeping his wife.

I forgot but why isn't Harris in college? I thought she did well enough in school to go but couldn't afford it and was working. Did she give all that up for working in a tattoo shop? It would be nice to see one Conner make it without being forced to leave the show (DJ)

I'm glad Mark didn't get the scholarship through the bassoon. If Mark is as smart as everyone says he is, he should be able to get an academic scholarship somewhere. It might not be Mark's preferred choice of school but he should be able to get in somewhere, get a degree or transfer to a college of his choice. Mark really is a Conner going the lazy, quick route instead of properly working and researching scholarships. I understand Darlene not being able to provide money for Mark's college but seeing how things went for Becky when it came to her schooling when she was Mark's age, why didn’t Darlene and Mark start much sooner in looking into scholarships? Oh yeah. The Conner don't think things through gene. 🤦‍♀️

That was an interesting fake out with the pregnancy. 🙄 But Harris continues to show how she wasn't ready to be a Mom with her attitude on no handme down and using her pregnancy to not do anything. I hope Louise home from tour for good means more Lousie.

Finally! I saw the season premiere to see how they will handle Murray's death and never returned. Series should have ended when George Segal died.

The ex seemed terrified of him. So many flags in that relationship.

I didn't realize until years later it was something from ABC wanting to promote Disney but why couldn't the writers have them win a contest to Disney World instead of making the Conners inept with financial decisions again? 🤦‍♀️

That's probably why they don't dump nonsense on him. They know he won't take it.

I think Maggie was jealous of Jessica and worried she will be so good she won't get her job back which very likely wasn't going to happen but after she confronted her boss, he might have an excuse to get rid of her if Dr. Jessica proves to be better than her. I know I shouldn't laugh but I did 🤣 That's exactly what she did. She made fun of one of the candidates tp Gary for having a nasal voice and bragged Colton will be begging she return.

Gary and Maggie are the worst. As already stated it wasn't Dr. Jessica's fault but Maggie and Gary's. I wonder how exactly Maggie told Gary. She already didn't like Dr. Jessica and could have easily told Gary in a way to make herself the victim and Dr. Jessica the villian. It's a really big reach assuming Dr. Jessica would use her sessions with Gary and audition for it. Maggie's paranoia was way over the top and for her to think Dr. Jessica would violate so many ethics, it makes me wonder if it's Maggie's insecurities screaming or she feels karma is due given how she got the job and questionable things she did since. It was sooo arrogant of Maggie to think Colton would take her suggestions of people to replace her without thinking he will do his own research. Even if he did, Colton would realize Maggie's suggestions are not good for radio. I was happy he put Maggie in her place. He also needs to fire Claudia for leaking the audition. I don't understand why Eddie felt the need to go on a group tour with young students. He could have requested a private one since he is a former student. It has been over twenty years but other than new paint and slight upgrading for the current times, the buildings shouldn't have changed that much. A campus map would refresh him and all he needed to know is how handicap friendly the school is. I think Dr. Jessica said that to Gary because of where she was auditioning and knew it would he a conflict of interest for her to keep being HIS therapist if she got the job.

I think Becky is smart and knows what she is doing: being that family member that takes advantage of others. If she wasn't renting from family, Becky would have the rent money on time
