At least Alicia has finally admitted she like the power of being Mrs. Florrick too much to give it up. But she did NOT have an affair with Will. She was separated from her husband at that time and contemplating divorce. That is not cheating. Thank god someone finally punched Kalinda. I am so sick of her seduce and use technique. She's not that great of an investigator if she can only find out about Damian's clients by stealing a file. And poor Cary stuck with coitus interruptus. David Lee is the kind of family law attorney I hate (disclaimer, I do family law but try not to do the slash and burn technique). Those 2 people need to raise that child together. Having an unnecessary fight is not a good idea. And reduce CHILD SUPPORT? Yeah judges love when you cut the money for the kid. Alimony sure. Less marital property, okay. But don't mess with the child support. But he did have a point about making major decisions while grieving. Too bad he was pushing Diane to make major decisions.

Brendan and Rachel need to get off my screen just for being morons. Rachel "we're going to the Eternal City, Ethiopia Africa." First of all, Ethiopia is country second of all, who does not know Rome is the Eternal City who has BEEN to the city before? Then Brendan with his "alphanumeric" conversion. Hey Mr. PhD, alphanumeric is numbers and letters. What you mean was converting between Roman and Arabic numerals. I thought the Globetrotters would be toast. If they couldn't come up with Franz Kafka, they were not going to get roman numerals (disclaimer, I can't do them above V). They had help. Luckily Jessica and John got loster. And really they thought they would beat professional athletes who run up and down a court in a foot race. Loved Phil directing the camera to catch the footrace. But gah with the Country Girls being the first thought was "let's work with someone" rather than using their own brains. Lost a lot of love for the Cowboys with their "Drive like a Sri Lankan" remark. That was so wrong.

I wonder if Reid did that on purpose so she would dump him. After all he was told to break it off with her and retire. He certainly doesn't want to retire. But after his declaration of love he was not going to break up with her either. And honestly, did the good councilwoman think no one would mind she was stepping out publicly with a married man? This is Victorian England for god's sakes. Image matters. Good girls don't, not if they want to continue to be councilwoman. Honestly, the men on this show have such sad love lives. And they are all good decent men trying very hard to do a difficult job. Rose needs to work on her diction if she wants to be an actress. Even singing you could tell she came from the slums. Not Cockney, but not gently born either. Even in the music hall that mattered.

Apparently she is at Coachella this weekend. Because that is totally where someone comitted to their sobriety should go.

That was C. Thomas Howell? I spent the whole epidode going "Who is that guy?" but was too lazy to got IMDB to find out. My room was covered in posters of him when I was a kid. He has not aged well.

They are tying the threads together. We even got an explanation of why Renard tried to kill Marie but is okay working with Nick. For such a heavy episode there were some major laughs. Loved everyone's reaction to Adalind's return. "there's more?" "uh when did she give birth?" But oh Adalind when she found out her baby was taken from her. Look she is a bad person, but she loved that child. I know she would never have agreed to send the child off with Mama Grimm. Who did such a great job at motherhood before.

Not sure I would buy any the artifacts. But there is a Mrs. Frederick's dress available.

Life and times of Santa Claus is the only one I won't watch. I watched it once and said "What the hell acid trip Christmas story is this?" Not that I have anything against pagan stories, but it was just too weird for me.

She definitely needed a tough life coach. One who will set a schedule for her and make her stick to it. Like: 8 a.m. get up, shower, get dressed have breakfast. 9 a.m. spend 1 hour sorting through the boxes tossing or donating anythng you haven't worn or used in at least 2 years. Lindsay must do it herself not have an assistant do the work. Anything kept must be put in its rightful place, by Lindsay. No acquiring new things until all the boxes are sorted. 10 - Noon - volunteer Noon - lunch Afternoon -- take an acting class, attend an AA meeting, etc. Dinner Bed at a reasonable hour. The minute Lindsay started playing games, the coach should have cracked down. None of this airy fairy crap about being serene and what a beautiful day it is to get back on track. If Lindsay is sleeping until 4 she ain't seeing the beautiful day anyway.

Yeah, I was hungry before this episode aired. BUt I have a strict rule of no eating when CSI is on. I've learned the hard way. So glad I have that Rule. Not a lot of Finn. That's two eps in a row without a lot of her. Did Elisabeth Shue want to cut back?

Well that explains how they afford their lifestyle. 60% of those photos adds up. But you know who is more in the media right now? The Cambridges. Prince George had his first public engagement -- a playdate. Sure the cameras were there, but it was just a little baby crawling around and playing with toys and annoying other kids, while being annoyed by them. There were lots of pics of Kate holding him. Not once did he have a "who the hell is this woman?" look on his face. Yes he has a nanny. BUt you can tell he spends time with his parents and is quite comfortable with them. He was even pulling Kate's hair. All I could think on seeing that is "Wow, if Kompass did that to Kim she would pitch a fit -- Kim not the baby."

JC leaves, I am out of here. The preview makes me nervous. This show is about how working with the Machine not only saves the POI but those who do its handiwork. Root is NOT redeemed because she still doesn't give a damn about people as PEOPLE. They are just things to her, to be used as needed then ignored. Shaw is too damn one note. Violence is always the answer. Reese cares about people because he is haunted he couldn't save his girlfriend, he wants to punish the bad guys, in creative ways that does not necessarily involve killing in cold blood (Mexican jail anyone?), he can fight, but he can also think his way out of a problem. He also brings out the humanity in Finch who has spent too much time in his awesome library with the computer. He is a very faceted character who brings so much to the show. Without him, it wouldn't be the same.

Holy crap. This happened. In LA last night, a guy walked into a police station that had no metal detector. Walked up to the front desk and said he had a complaint. Then opened fire hitting a cop who was not wearing his bullet proof vest like he was supposed to be doing on duty. The only difference from the show is no hostage situation, no magical fingerprint analysis and thankfully -- the cop is just fine. But DAMN.

Oh man he better not show up just to cause angst on the Caskett wedding day. I will so hunt down Marlowe and make him eat the script page by page -- with no sauce -- if that happens.

And then Peaches Geldof. Only 25 with 2 small children. Yeah, she is famous for being famous, but she is less revolting about it than Paris Hilton or any of the Kardashians. She was just having fun and enjoyed life. Kinda a harmless person.

Do they KNOW that Renard put Adalind up to those things? Pretty sure Nick hasn't had that heart-to-heart about what Renard wants out of all this yet. So we don't know why he wanted a pet Grimm or what he was doing with Wesen before Nick manifested his powers. As far as they know, Adalind did all these things on her own.

I think it was the jeweler who had been defrauded by Warner. I thought the same thing about Rose. Some "true friend." I'm just going to be watching instead of going to get someone who can help. It's not like Reid can't knock some sense into Drake's head. Literally apparently. But oh Reid and that final scene. So hot. Although I worry about that reporter hanging outside the door. Not sure if he was happy for the lady or happy he can blackmail Reid.

Diamonddoll I am right there with you on Juliette and the baby. This woman who does not even have a pet despite being a vet, has never exhibited any maternal attitudes at all, suddenly knows exactly what a baby needs better than the mother. I can see Adalind not wanting to ask for a dry blanket from these people, but it doesn't mean she didn't know her baby needed one. Honestly Adalind has demonstrated adequate concern and care for her child that it was not necessary for Juliette to be all uppity. It is clearly a set up for Juliette and Nick to become the guardians of the baby of destiny ala Ma and Pa Kent. As for the wedding dress, thanks for the explanation of why it had to cover so much of Rosalee. But that doesn't mean it had to look so hideous. There are plenty of long sleeved, high necked dressed that are quite beautiful. This was not one of them.

Any episode with Ensign Ro in it on Star Trek the Next Generation. But especially the alternate universe one where she and Riker were married. Just ugh. My least liked character married to my most liked one. Honestly, I can see they wanted to add to the cast and maybe have someone be less than the perfect. But did they have to make her so darn unlikeable?

Knowing this show Willie is some sort of Wesen that is known for its singing.

Holy Schnikies was this the "tie up loose threads" episode or what? What happened to the ring and the proposal? Check. Still waiting while they adjust. How do they know Nick is a Grimm? Check. Eyes of infinite darkness. It is apparently quite unsettling. But sunglasses solve the problem. Does Juliette know Adalind was the one responsible for her come? Check. That would be a hell yes. Does Adalind know Nick's mom kiled her mom? Check. Apparently not. The Royals storyline seems so disconnected from the Portland action. Check. Oh look everyone is heading to Portland. Why is this baby so important? Check. Child of destiny. The coins? Not checked, but wanna bet they have something to do with the child of destiny? Because sometimes people just follow someone no one knows why. Why did millions follow an uneducated Austrian corporal who had weak lungs from being gassed in WWI? Because he had the coins. Please though, don't let the final showdown ruin Monroe and Rosalee's wedding. They deserve some nice quiet time before they have to help Nick save the world. And WTF is it with costume designers and fugly wedding dresses. I know it was her grandmother's but that dress was NOT flattering to Rosalee. She is a tiny woman, she was lost in that dress. Not as bad as the Castle dress but not stop and gasp gorgeous as implied either.

It's scenes like that why I think the wedding will never happen. He found out that his dream girl has no there, there. That his AList friends will shun her. She found out that pregnancy is not as much as it looks on tv. But even after the baby was born, she thought she and Kanye would play house together. Instead she is essentially a single mom where the dad shows up for a walk every so often then disappears. Granted a single mom with a nanny and assistants, but she thought it would be her and Kanye having photo ops with Kompass then both of them handing the baby off to a nanny. Both are very disillusioned and trying to figure a way out that won't hurt their respective images more.

I hope it ends the way Eureka ends. Just another day in a really weird town, and life will go on, we just don't get to check in on them almost destroying civilization anymore. I want to believe that the Warehouse will continue with Pete, Myka, Claudia and Artie doing their job rounding up dangerous (and not so dangerous) artificats.

Yeah last week the Machine is so precise it can send Root to the exact moment she needs to be there, but this week can't get Reese and Shaw to the first Number in even time to keep her from getting into the cab. In other words, the Machine is as precise as the writers need it to be that episode.

Just argh. A few weeks back we had Chumlee as the king of practical jokes. Cory couldn't get him no matter what. Chum was just too good. Now for April Fool's day (which you know was filmed months ago) Chum is suddenly so stupid he doesn't even know that April Fool's pranks are only for April Fool's day. And the best he can come up with is to tell the intern she can have the day off. Oh hahahahahha, My sides are busting from laughing so hard. NOT. Just stick to the stuff being pawned. Leave out the "family" storylines. I want to see the cool stuff that no other pawn shop in Vegas handles and hear the history of it.
