  1. I don't care for Amazon's streaming UI myself, so I usually never even look. The movie has made me nostalgic though so I might watch some of my favorite episodes.
  2. Juliet didn't seem like a dirty cop when it came to the Chief's daughter. Cops let people go with warnings every day and Juliet knows the kid and wanted to know what was going on so she could help. Justice doesn't always demand an arrest and compassion is a key component of her character. So I was okay with that. But I didn't care for the direction they went with Henry. That seemed OOC but it's California, so who knows? :-) It was just nice to see everyone again. My daughter actually alerted me to the fact that Psych is now streaming on Amazon Prime, so if you have it, it's free to watch.
  3. Considering the heat Roger Howarth gets over on GH for his greasy hair and hobo look, I can't see him being a welcome addition to B&B. Unless it's from TK, as someone to take the spotlight away from his own appearance. I will second Jane Elliot playing any role she wants, though. Would love to see her with SC again.
  4. After not watching for a couple of months, I made the mistake of watching the last couple of B&B's on the dvr today. Eww... and WTH? It's true that the last episode I saw was Bill maniacally pushing the button on Liam and Sally but now he's a lovesick shell of a man without Steffy? And I can't begin to wrap my head around this (even more) empty-headed version of Brooke. It's not okay to wear the ring but okay to indulge in some after lunch whatever? That scene was so gross. KKL really is beautiful but Bridge will always be revolting to me with TK in the role. The anti-chemistry hurts to watch. Still, I liked the idea of Thorne (who has only been on once or twice since I've been watching) designing a line using Aly's name. And Ingo is better than I expected.
  5. If they do end up doing another movie, I hope they relax and slow down just a bit. I'm more of a fan of laid back and goofy. And TO's absence was keenly felt. Shawn has always needed either Lassie or Henry to provide some ballast.
  6. I should clarify that the 3 times was for the upcoming 2 weeks search of the listings on titantv.com, so it's possible there will be more showings. And if someone has cable, they can usually log into the USA site to watch recent shows.
  7. It will be replayed on the 12th at 5:00 am. I'm really surprised that they are only showing it 3 times.
  8. You can't have a love letter to the fans without Cary Elwes. J/K - I'm still ridiculously excited for next week!
  9. So, late to the party :-) but this story is finally starting to be a little interesting. More Alice helped. And I admit to laughing when Ivy refused to villain monologue. Weaver has to be awake. The look on his face when Regina mentioned Belle was subtle but there. The question is why - the answer unfortunately is that no one cares. Nothing we've seen indicates any kind of long game. If they are saving Rumple til they can stage some kind of dramatic twist, I have a feeling it will too little, too late. They need some kind of energy infusion right now. Just a thought but if Disney really wants to promote Star Wars, why not give us some Last Jedi anticipation via Henry and Nick instead? (But then they'd have to send in the competent writers to oversee it (a la Frozen) and that would be an impossible task and a waste of money, considering the state of the show. Never mind...)
  10. I was pretty impressed with the episode in general, except for the team doing one pass each (no dark matter, no vibe info, etc.) and giving up to make Barry look obsessed. And I kind of loved the DeVoes as the super villain, loving couple with a great marriage. Just idle speculation (with absolutely no comics/spoiler knowledge) but I could see the wife being the big bad of a future season, if the guy's ALS wins in the end. She's smart enough to enact real revenge on Team Flash and her husband is her whole world.
  11. He probably will. I was in a coffee shop yesterday with GH on the wall tv and my favorite barista started gushing about SBu's return. (She knows I watch sometimes.) She's in her early twenties, I'd guess, so probably imprinted on OGJason in high school.
  12. It's a dilemma... this episode actually kept me mildly entertained but by the end of it, I no longer cared about Ivy/Drizella. A morally gray character is fun to watch, straight up evil is just plain stupid - especially if it was caused by mommy issues. (Isn't that what every arch villain whines about - mommy or daddy didn't love me? Ugh.) Yeah, don't care. It's kind of a shame, because Regina and Drizella could have been fun to watch. I love a good master/apprentice relationship. It could have been entertaining to see Regina of all people try to keep someone from turning to the dark side.
  13. There's only so much hot mess viewers in general can take until they get distracted by other things. I already have too many shows to keep up with myself and my affection for this one is being worn thin. The biggest problem for me it that the only thing that really feels like OUAT anymore is the opening title sequence. Still, it could be salvageable. Ivy and the witch's scene was intriguing - keeping me interested enough to give it one more week (though it was a close call).
  14. Late to the episode, so I don't think there's anything left to say that hasn't been said but just wanted to chime in on how much fun this one was. And add my kudos to the casting folks - the kid who played young Ray was very good. (I usually hate kids on television, so that's high praise.) The scenes with Mick and both Ray/young Ray made me laugh. As annoying as Nate can be, I guess I've gotten used to him and he also made me laugh, so even that was fine. And I really like Zari. I have no clue who Mighty Isis is or how her story fits in but am looking forward to seeing how it works out.
  15. It's funny, I was watching back then and I don't remember the storyline at all, just the glorious conclusion. I zoned out with all the memory download/upload explanations to Anna but if indeed Drew was sent away from his family (even for his own safety), surely that would be a pretty traumatic memory, even for a young child and possibly not completely wiped out with the memory transfer. Could that be the thing that differentiates Drew from Jason?
  16. Sigh. I'm halfway through my recording of this episode and just had to take a break. Jacinda is the worst friend ever. If I didn't know about (and want to see) the final Ivy scene, I'd just stop here and not look back.
  17. Thanks! I thought Cassandra was giving off obsessed patient vibes when she was sitting with Dr. Michael Easton., not criminal mastermind but oh well... And sheesh, how could I forget Ellie's name?
  18. Okay, I saw a few minutes of Wednesday's episode in a coffee shop, so decided to watch Wed-Fri to see how they are handling the 2 Jasons. (So meta, having RoHo in the middle of it.) It's been years since I've watched GH for more than 10 minutes, so I have a couple of recent history questions. Who is Cassandra - should I care? Where are Laura and Kevin these days - I thought they were a couple? Wasn't Anna being held hostage somewhere at some point? Was Alex in that storyline? Is Georgie still in Portland with Spinelli and the redhead whose name I can't recall at the moment? Also, it was kind of nice to hear a mention of Susan from Scotty.
  19. I remember NP from General Hospital. The article says "He’s polished, but not stuffy or smarmy." Smarmy was his default on GH, so hopefully he's learned something since then.
  20. Ah, SORAS-ing can happen at any age, even in reverse. The most common situation I've seen has been the 7 - 10 year old who comes back from an out of town visit as an annoying teenager. I think we like Ivy because she has an easy chemistry with Henry. Their conversation was unforced and natural. And she doesn't like Jacinda, which gives us a lot in common with her. :-)
  21. I thought it was the sound of it breaking, when Alice threw it after it didn't work. I'd have to go back and rewatch but was sure there was something in Weaver's body language that the sound changed something. What I wasn't sure of the intent was Ghost Belle hovering. Did that mean he was at death's door or ?
  22. Even after sleeping on it, not sure how I felt about this one. Seeing Storybrooke in the opening was rubbing salt in the wound almost. As for the party, I imagine anyone coming is doing it for Belle, though I can see Emma encouraging Henry to have a relationship with his other little baby uncle. Rumpbelle's happy interlude was kind of weirdly long for this show but I've never seen Up, so it just seemed cloying. Is dead better than a sleeping curse or some of the other ways they've used to ignore Belle? At least Emilie got some screen time on her way out. (Maybe she'll show up on the Roswell reboot?) I like Ivy. Best line of the episode was her saying she'd rather eat carbs rather than do something with Lucy. I don't blame her. The second best was Weaver calling VB "dearie". And the sound of the teacup breaking waking Rumple was satisfying. At least, it felt a little like OUAT. So, in a way I wish this episode had been worse so I could delete the show from the dvr. There was just enough Once to keep me undecided. If they could fix the Henry/Jacinda/Lucy thing I'd probably be more optimistic but how do you do that when it's the cornerstone of the new show?
  23. They need to get rid of Tiana because every time she's on screen all I can think about is how depressing it is that she's not the main character. It's not even fun critiquing the rest of the show.
  24. Count me in for both shocked and pleased that Salvation gets a chance to redeem itself next summer. Hopefully they will see what worked and what didn't. And that JF won't be pregnant. (Not that I usually mind but I thought we deserved some really good Moscow flashbacks for putting up with the rest.)
  25. I watched this for the first time on Britbox this afternoon. It looked like everyone was having a great time. I may need to go back and watch the N series when I get time.
