Same here. It's that tongue in cheek that is missing. I can't see any American show addressing the audience the way Miranda Hart did or even as blatantly as Frankie Howerd did in Up Pompeii. In one offs, Americans seem to be able to do it, but in a series? We seem to take ourselves too seriously to do it well.

That was Jill? She looks rough. I admit I haven't kept up with the Rods for a while, but she looks really rough compared to pictures I've seen of her earlier.

I agree that Mayim should be more of herself, especially in the scenes she's doing the asides to the audience. They don't seem as natural as when Miranda did them. Not that I'm not enjoying the show, but I want to see Mayim in the part, not Mayim trying to be Miranda Hart. The asides are supposed to be an "inside" joke between Kat and the audience (Or invisible friends as Miranda seemed to portray the audience in my mind). There's the greeting at the beginning saying hi to her friends, then we follow along. Mayim is doing asides to the audience, in typical acting style, but not to her invisible friends. Am I making sense to anyone?

Why does this remind me of the song, "Fancy"?

If that is still too much for you, I found out my cats like drinking out of a cheap desk fountain I got at CVS last Christmas It's small and battery operated, and my cats loved it even though that was not the reason I originally bought it! It was about $6. It's small so you would have to keep an eye on it, but as I said, my cats loved it.

Isn't that a big no no to try and force God's hand regarding the end of times? Doesn't everything happen in His time and only He knows when that time is? That's why horoscopes, Ouija boards, etc are looked down on because they are supposedly Devil tied because of fortune telling. I have a feeling people are going to be real surprised if there is an afterlife.

yeah, that happened to me. But, we lived on a small base overseas and they needed bodies. They wouldn't promote me even though I did the work. My birthday was in Nov., so I was still the youngest of my class at graduation. I wonder if the cousins would ever be home schooled together in one class? They would really show who is teaching.

Yes, Jill posted a recipe, and I think that's what she calls "Party Potatos" I remember a lot of chatter when Jill posted the recipe.

Bacon! I used to read my aunt's old Chatterbox magazines from the early century. They'd usually have a story about life in a public school. It surprised me to read the word fag, meaning to serve, as in a younger boy serving an upperclassman. I also think French is a way of cutting such as French green beans. What ever happened to speak the truth and shame the devil?

I had a dress like that in the late 80s early 90s in khaki. It was a go to dress when I wanted to be comfortable. That era had a lot to answer for!

I think she's copying some of the poses she's seen online. But, there's still a disconnect. She doesn't know why they pose in certain poses.

I was going to say it looked like she didn't change from her night dress before doing chores on the homestead.

,It can be done. My sister has always had baby fine hair and hers grew below her waist. Our grandfather liked girls having short hair, however and mom cut it. Mom said she had a mad four year old screaming at the mirror, " Dam' Granpa, dam' Granpa!" It never reached that length again, however.

My sister received one today claiming she was a tax evader, etc. It wasn't a good day so she replied, "You lard ass piece of sh*t, I'll tell you what you can do..." Well, she couldn't since he hung up on her, so she dialed back and got a woman, who just answered, hello, then tried to continue the scam. My sister continued on the same vein, and she hung up on her. As my sister views this as a release, she called back again and they disconnected the line. She's had scammers block her. She says she doesn't want to yell at her partner, so she takes it out on them. Just remember, the IRS never phones, it's always snail mail.

Wow! You can remember that far back? Some styles never change I guess. Sorry, Pradkitty, the typo was to much of a temptation for me to resist! I also had shoes like that in the '70s.
