Oh my god! Michelle died. She was only 39. https://tvline.com/news/michelle-trachtenberg-dead-buffy-the-vampire-slayer-obituary-1235413704/

I think it’s going to be Smitty who sells out the liar. He walked up just as liar was making the note about the road closure. Smitty might be lazy and primarily comic relief but I’m pretty sure he’s opposed to his coworkers getting cooked.

I was going to say, James or Tristan couldn’t have darted over and knocked on the door to get the goose even if it was Christmas morning? Sure they’ll eat later but they will still eat what is an increasingly rare nice meal. And they may not realize it now But rationing is going to go on into the 50s. They need to get the good stuff while they can because it is not going to last.

Oh yes, Edward is not out of danger in any sense of the word. In fact, he’s probably in more danger now with the Japanese assault on Singapore eminent. The city fell a week after being attacked and it was utter chaos.Unless he’s evacuated to Australia right away, he’s facing a grim fate. And Audrey most likely won’t have any idea what happened to her son. Mail from the Far East to England would have taken 2 to 3 months, provided he was even able to get a letter out before the city falls. The Japanese were not signatories to the Geneva convention at the time and were not inclined to share information such as prisoner lists or participate in prisoner exchanges the way the Germans would have (at least with the western allies). There were some civilians repatriated in 1942 and 1943, but most of those were in the Philippines. There’s a high likelihood that Edward is captured, and if he survives that, might be in interned for years. With Audrey having no way of knowing whether he’s alive or dead.

Technically, Bailey is not the one who hired the hitman. She figured out the hitman was following her, figuring he’d find Jason that way, and she actually got the drop on him. The hitman gave her his number and said to give him a call if Jason shows up. Still very illegal!

I’m guessing the cost efficiency is made up in regards to better infection control by keeping patient separated plus you have to consider that patient privacy laws are significantly stricter than they used to be and violating them can be quite costly. The old style Nightingale awards with several dozen patients lined up next to each other would be an absolute nightmare in terms of patient privacy today. A dear friend of mine who is an RN said they struggled with that quite a bit during Covid, trying to balance privacy and infection control with a desperate need to squeeze in as many beds as possible.

Yeah. Otis got the idea to expand the bar in season six and was able to take over a spot that was going out of business. In the process began dating the former owner’s daughter. She had gone in on a partnership, but didn’t have the heart to run it after he died. So it closed.

I’m guessing the ship is in port and Athena is there to investigate. Not that she’s on board as a guest like last time.

This was so boring that I turned it off halfway through.

Good for Carver for choosing to get sober! That is a hard journey. And I felt really bad for him thinking that he had found some support only for the guy to be a complete creep. He’s clearly struggling and trying so hard. The budget cuts are showing. A TV show set in a firehouse and we only got one rescue the entire hour? Unless it’s an event episode cast members are always missing? This is getting a little ridiculous. I do appreciate the references to Otis and to Brett. And the references are appropriate. Herman is standing in Molly’s talking about wanting to expand, of course Otis and Molly’s North is going to come up. Stella and Kelly want to adopt a child so of course they’re gonna reach out to the person who has And ask for resources. It was very organic.

Yeah Texas is getting better. He’s definitely been losing some of the cocky attitude and once he adjust himself more to how LAPD does things then I think he’ll do fine. He’s definitely been knocked for a few loops since he started and that will definitely help deal with his ego.

I did enjoy seeing one crook turn on the other at the safe house. He wanted his deal dang it!

Yes, Val Kilmer did appear in the Top Gun sequel. His vocal issues were written into the script. It was actually a lovely scene between Iceman and Maverick.

Overall, I think it was a good show, but the 40th was much stronger. It feels like more planning went into the 40th as well in terms of nostalgia in the sketches, in pairing new cast members with old cast members and the pre-tapes referring to things like auditions in digital shorts. Unfortunately utilizing all of those elements in this show would’ve just been a repeat of 40, which is why I think it felt so uneven.

Given the corporate HR across-the-board tends to be a lot more active these days, I would guess that the drugs of choice have changed and their consumption is a bit more discreet.
