  1. I knew they’d have to say something about tWitch but even when it happened I was unprepared. That hit me hard and I ended up crying as if I’d actually known him. That surprised me. I liked that the judges were trying to offer actual critiques rather than just cheerleading.
  2. Even if he doesn’t have health insurance they wouldn’t bill up front, would they? They’d have to know what they’re treating, how many stitches, what (if any) pain meds, etc. You don’t just walk up to the counter, say “I’ve been stabbed,” and they say “it’ll cost $500.”
  3. I have never paid for medical care up front except for my co-pay. I get treated, then if there’s an extra charge I either pay before I leave or I get billed later. I didn’t think it was weird at all that he walked out of the exam room like that - pausing at the reception desk on his way out would have been a pointless detail in the episode.
  4. I agree. So one person (potentially) has to compete in 5 rounds but 3 people only do one? So dumb. Edit: I just (sort of) watched the 2nd episode and had to skim because I cannot stand Brian Malarkey. Sigh.
  5. Minority opinion, but Sofia and Kevin made me laugh. I also appreciated Kevin’s sincere interest in Jodie and Alan as successful theatre and film/tv actors. But yeah, that clip from Hart’s film did not look good.
  6. I’ve seen a lot of comparisons to Mos Eisley cantina for the song & dance number, but all I could think of (after “what the hell am I watching?”) was Labyrinth. “You remind me of the babe….” I liked this episode a lot and am looking forward to Fifteen’s adventures!
  7. Claudia and Rob being in love with their dogs was the best. Also, I don’t think either of them will ever see this, but dogs have on occasion ended up in the shower with human family members in our house when time is tight. Though bathing a shih tzu in a walk-in shower with a hose attachment isn’t as efficient as it may sound: short dog + short hose = a dog that really only gets slightly damp.
  8. Well, given the work of all three tattoos for each artist, I think Bobby was the right winner, though I preferred Jon’s snake tattoo over the others. I absolutely hated Freddie’s black & grey tattoo. Hated it sooooooo much. I get some of the judges defending the artistry (it was still awful), but I felt like it completely disregarded the fact that that poor guy has to wear that thing. Freddie was so caught up in being An Artist that he didn’t think about whether he was creating something worth wearing. I would probably dump my partner if he came home with a tattoo like that (and yes, I’m aware that I am illustrating Bubba’s point that art should make you feel some kind of way). I did really love Bobby’s third tattoo. It gave vintage art nouveau poster vibes and was just beautiful. Overall I felt like it was a bland season and I probably won’t remember much of it a week from now.
  9. Ha! Yesterday I was trying - and failing - to say it the way he does. It’s harder than it seems!
  10. I’m glad Jozzy didn’t make it to the final because I don’t think she even still should have been there. I agree that none of the finalists really stand out for me, but I guess I’m rooting for Freddie or John because Bobby’s work is my least favorite. John might have the edge over Freddie because he at least tries to meet the brief, while Freddie tends to throw up his hands and toss a pixellated heart into a traditional Japanese tattoo since “it’s a FREDDIE tattoo.”
  11. Julia Roberts fangirling over Cher was adorable. Same, bestie. Same.
  12. I tapped out after the third episode but I’ve been following the forums to see if it’s worth going back. It’s going to depend on what happens with “Sir” because if he’s really there in the basement and not a figment of her imagination, I just don’t see a way around this for her.
  13. I had to (grudgingly) agree that Jozzy’s tattoo was pretty great, but yeah, out of the bottom ones this week Bobby’s was my least favorite. I just don’t get their love for him.
  14. I was going to cry no matter who left, but awww, Tash. Matty signing “thank you” to her after the signature was so sweet. Those apple tarts looked delicious, and now I want one. I was especially impressed that they had to cut all those slices by hand; I would have been reaching for my mandolin! I love the way Josh honors his Nan. Dan has consistently been supportive of the other bakers and I appreciate that about him. Noel and Matty plotting their sabotage made me laugh. I really can’t call next week. It’s going to be a proper nail-biter!
