  1. I'm confused. Why did the dead girl's friend go to the Julianne Nicholson character with her big "secret"? What does that woman have to do with anything, other than being the friend of Mare the cop?
  2. This is not the kind of show I generally watch, but there's precious little on TV right now so I figured I'd give it a go, and I loved it. It's probably the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. I'm going to watch the pilot again in the hope that it'll all make more sense the second time around.
  3. I'm thinking Legarski's boss, the "don't mess with my men" bitch, is in this up to her eyeballs. That look on her face. The sheriff or whatever he is who she strong-armed into laying charges is completely incompetent. As others have stated, there would have been evidence to find in that trailer if anyone had bothered to look.
  4. I think this show needed to do a lot better job of making the kid sympathetic if they want us to buy into this for 9 more episodes. But he's such a dumbass, I don't like him and I don't think he deserves to get away with killing the mobster's son. It wasn't a true 'accident', it was 100% his fault, from the pointlessness of leaving the picture in a place where it clearly wasn't going to last 30 seconds, to his dangerous driving, speeding and weaving all over the road. If the inhaler is so important, he should have secured it better. The attempted mouth-to-mouth was not only gross, it was obviously useless, but it served to cover him in blood, which was necessary for plot purposes. Finally, he was too stupid to even do a load of laundry without causing a flood.
  5. So no one's going to mention my favourite scene? When Bonnie had to go into the gas station for her Dare with bra & panties on over her clothes, ask for the smallest condoms they have, and then serenade the bemused attendant with "Natural Woman"? No one? I laughed myself silly.
  6. I had high hopes for this one, but I hated the first episode a lot. SO boring, and completely nonsensical. I like Christopher Plummer, but he's NINETY YEARS OLD, for dog's sake. The woman in the taxi at the very beginning. She tells the taxi driver she's meeting someone at the airport, but the next thing you see, she's in a plane. Made no sense at all. And the plane was going from NY to the UK, so why show us Toronto Airport? The rest of it was just talk, talk, talk, blah, blah, blah, and bunch of characters so completely interchangeable and bland and mumbly I never did figure out who was who.

    Oh, me too! I should have known they wouldn't have the cojones to have the kid actually shoot someone. Can't decide which kid is more annoying, this one, or the one in Manifest!
  8. I loved this! So many layers to the characters -- no one is quite what they first seemed. The neighbor is appalling. Can't wait for the next ep.
  9. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. It was just good, silly, escapist fun.
  10. What a snorefest. An hour of boring talk, 30 seconds of car chase and 5 minutes of silly monsters. And why did the 'monsters' look so lame and low-budget? Was it supposed to look like a cheesy '60's TV show?
  11. I really like this show, even though the only likeable character is the black cop. I can't understand why it would get bad reviews. It's a million times better than the over-hyped Lovecraft Country. I wish it was more than 6 episodes, though. It's already 1/3 over!
  12. I couldn't make it more than 15 minutes into this episode. This show is just awful. It reminds me of that putrid Poirot re-imagining (ABC Murders) in that it's just lazy, terrible writers stealing a famous name and trying to capitalize on it. It's too bad, because I really like Matthew Rhys, but this show has zero entertainment value. If I want to see racism, religious conmen, and corrupt, incompetent, killer cops, I can just watch the news.
  13. I think the Halloween one is my favourite so far. So creepy.
  14. I don't know why I keep watching this show. I have never heard of Jordyn Woods. And a few of the guesses for the others were names I've never heard before.
  15. Maybe so, but I'm not complaining! Also, glad to hear that Little Jamie "still stands up by himself every morning"!
  16. Oh dear. Who the fuck was that child? I thought there were supposed to be "celebrities" under those heads.
  17. I totally did not see it coming that unknown brunette would turn out to be Jack's adopted sister in the future. So, congratulations show, you got me again. Randall is officially the worst character on TV. Total dick. I thought Kevin was aged way too much in the last scene (Rebecca's deathbed). Judging from the look of his twins, 10 years or less has elapsed, but Kevin looks 20+ years older.
  18. I didn't like either T-Rex or Swan, so I'm fine with Swan leaving, although I have never heard of her and have absolutely no idea who she is.
  19. I was really disturbed by Rebecca's snotty and completely uncalled-for reaction when the acting teacher said that carriage rides aren't good for the horses. A horse just recently collapsed and died from the overwork and abuse that is heaped daily on them for selfish tourists. It was obvious from the very first moment of that first trip that Rebecca wasn't going to get to do "her" thing. What made Jack think he knew better than her about NY? Oh right, Saint Jack knows EVERYTHING and has to take someone else's knowledge as a personal affront to his greatness. Randall is a dick. How dare he exclude Miguel from any decision-making regarding Rebecca's care? And his pissy comment to Kevin about being "abandoned" (for all of 5 minutes!) at KEVIN's premiere? He just sounds petulant and jealous, and would have grasped at any excuse to go back on his agreement with Kevin to let their mom have a pleasant evening. Her forgetting the name of the hotel wasn't exactly a crisis moment.

    That was stunningly bad.
  21. I'm pretty sure Kate said she wanted 3-Cheese Macaroni.
  22. I've always hated with a passion the song Our House by CSN. Oddly enough, I also hate the completely different song Our House by Madness.
  23. I hated the unhappy ending. Except for Lord Babington, who I liked a lot, and I'm glad at least that he and Esther are apparently going to be great together. Why would Sidney be so willing to give up the woman he supposedly wanted, just to bail out his dipshit brother once again? Tom is so undeserving of such a sacrifice. He would have probably had the money for insurance if he hadn't wasted so much of it buying expensive and unnecessary jewelry for his wife. Even if Eliza dies soon in the terrible accident I'm imagining for her, I don't think Charlotte should take him back. Stopping her carriage and raising her hopes, only to spout some platitudes to make himself feel less guilty? Sorry Sidney, I do think badly of you. My ending is that she realizes that she's actually in love with Stringer, who becomes a famous and wealthy architect (maybe in America?), and they live happily ever after.
  24. This was obviously meant to be just another joke about how Wendy is always the forgotten one, but really it just shows Jill again being Jill. She talks about being sorry that "no one" remembered to invite Wendy, but it was Jill's spa, Jill was paying, it was Jill's way of making it up to everyone that she blew off their fancy lunch, so it was Jill's responsibility to invite Wendy, as presumably, she invited all the rest of them.
  25. This may be an unpopular opinion, but I sometimes don't really like Jill very much. Inviting them all to lunch at her club and then blowing them off when they were all there waiting for her was just so selfish and typically Jill. She's not as bad as she was when we first met her, but I don't think she would make a very good mother because she's so completely self-centered.
