ShowsILoveToHate

Ugh. 🙄 I'm hate-watching too! I don't want to sound insensitive, but hasn't Terra ever watched the show "Little People, Big World"??? Poor Zach went through so much when he was a young child, including a few shunt surgeries. As a mom, she needs to take the drama down a notch and get a little stronger so that she can deal with all of the things that may happen to her kids while they're growing up. I really hope that she acts calmer in front of the kids. And I can't stand that high-pitched crying/speaking thing that she does. 😵

I could be totally wrong here, but I think the daughter is in on something, with the mother. In the scene tonight where they let her meet with her daughter, and the flashbacks to when she went to her daughter's school, both times she said the word "beautiful" to the daughter; at the school, after mouthing "I love you", she then, a beat or two, mouthed "beautiful". Then tonight when the daughter first sat down, the mother said "You're so big! Um, I mean, beautiful!!!". And then of course the "hat" references: "When I was in jail and we were so cold, they'd often give us extra socks. But all I wanted was a *hat*". And then they show us last week's scene where the mother dropped the hat on the ground, and evidently the daughter picked it up because she had it in her bedroom and got it out and found the note. There's got to be more to that note than just face value. It's code for something. I think that the daughter is another worker for Tal, or was being trained to work with her mother, for Tal. I'd think wonder if that was really her own daughter, except for the fact that the FBI/CIA do in-depth background checks, and they'd know whether she had a daughter or not. Or, I'm just imagining that these things have any meaning at all. LOL Oh, and I do think that we're going to find out that whatever her name is, the mother, was/is MUCH more trained than just what they claim she did. I don't think that everything that she observes, the glancing around, is just for dramatic effect.

I like Tyler (the tall country singer who works in the "awl" {oil} field). Beautiful voice, no sob story, nice guy. Just talent.

Thank you for the link! According to her blog, she "can't wait to fill" us in on everything, after the show ends, including why she was never without her fanny pack. Good grief. 🙄

Did I miss in the beginning of the season why Allison wears a fanny pack all the time? I'm assuming something like she has asthma and keeps her inhaler with her....??? I would've picked Brett over Allison.

Every other season, I feel like I'm watching an entirely different show. I love James Spader and will probably watch this season. I'm surprised this show is still on, when so many other good shows get cancelled after only 1 season.

That freaks me out a little more, each time I see it. :(

I remember reading that the showrunner Pete Nowalk knew that it'd be one of K5 who died; he hadn't made his final decision until it was closer to him writing the actual episode, but he knew enough to tell VD that her acting should reflect how AK would feel upon learning that someone that she cared about VERY much was going to die. I have no doubt that it's the same situation now; VD might not know yet who dies at the wedding, but the writers do, or at least have it narrowed down, and so they told her to what degree to show grief and anguish. KWIM?

Just watched tonight's episode, and I could swear that I've seen the bride Devlyn and her fiancé Brock, on another show. The redneck Survivor type show....??? I forget the name of it, but I think that a former wrestler dude was the host of it. Does this couple seem familiar to anyone else?? Mr. ShowsILoveToHate said that they seem familiar to him, too. Hmmm.....

Does anyone know why this episode isn't available on OnDemand? We just found this show and were able to watch eps 1 & 2 OnDemand, then it goes to Ep 4 (which we recorded last night). Thanks!

Good point! My husband and I have watched a few episodes, and you're right! The theme of that show is very similar to this one, in that it goes back and takes another look at cases where the defendant has been found guilty. I'd follow that forum if one was made.

I'm interested in the podcast. What I hated the most about this documentary was all of the time devoted to MP's blathering on and on about himself, and his self-importance.

I just finished watching the second-to-last, and last episodes; in the second-to-last episode when the family is gathered around discussing whether Michael should decide to go to trial a second time, or to go for a plea deal, he said something like "....well, if I take a plea deal, I'm guilty, and I'm certainly not going to let Candace have my book money....". So apparently he was planning on writing a book all about this. Ugh, I'm so glad to be done with this guy. I'd seen this story in years past on various shows, and after watching so many episodes, I had to see it through to the end. By the way, I LOVED Candace's speech in the court room.

I really want to watch the documentary but I don't think that I want to ruin my memories of him. I thought he was so adorable, and I loved his voice. I can still hear every song in my head, all of these years later. I had a life-sized poster of David on the back on my bedroom door when I was a kid. lol I saw him twice in concert, and I remember that one of the concerts was right after he had his gall bladder removed, and we could his bandages underneath his white jumpsuit. Was he on Celebrity Apprentice? I think I remember some of the other castmates, the men, treating him badly. Then again, there was some ignorant person who also was mean to George Takei. People can be real jerks. Thanks to everyone for posting about the documentary, and about your personal experiences. :)

I must be the only one who doesn't mind Erica's singing. I've known since the first episode that she's been a professional singer. (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayley_Orrantia I wonder if they're taking her in a singing as a career direction because of the fact that the actress has that talent to offer. From what I remember reading, Erica isn't based on an actual family member of Adam Goldberg. I wonder if the writers just don't know what to do with her, since there aren't any "true life" stories to go by. ?? Does anyone know if this show is being renewed??

I guess it would be awkward, but it's their job- to act. LOL I like the character of Florence, but to the viewing audience it just seems like it'd be a quick break-up. They could always work the script that Walter and Paige realize that their relationship isn't good, for the sake of Scorpion, so they break up. Eh, who knows. lol

They'd better not mess with the "chemistry" as it were, of this show. I really like the new actress; they should have her and Sly hook up or something. Leave Walter and Paige alone! They only recently finally got together!!!!!!! Maybe she can be his long-lost sister or something....*harrumph*....

Is anyone else still watching this?? I enjoy it; they make me laugh.

I still love this show. It's so unrealistic, but it's my happy escape show. I love seeing Happy & Toby and Paige & Walter. I watch many sci-fi and dramas that you really have to pay attention to.... but this show is like an ice cream sundae for my mind. (Ok I'm on paid meds, as usual.... lol) Does anyone else love this show even though it's not very thought-provoking or deep or technical??? I enjoy the character development, even though it's been fairly predictable so far!

I thought that Elizabeth looked thinner this season. I definitely noticed it in her face.

I was curious about the type of resort that production chose to film in. It's a Waldorf-Astoria property and really nice. I know that they were probably comped most, if not all, of the cost because of the constant showing the name of the resort, but I was a little surprised to see how nice of a resort it is, and that they (TLC, production, etc) didn't just put them in a less luxurious property. Here's a link to the resort's site: http://www.lascasitasvillage.com/

I'm kind of new to these Hallmark movies, but I've seen a few that I really liked. One of them had Allison Sweeney and a blueberry patch or something. And I just discovered these Murder, She Baked movies. I DVRed all of the older ones, and I'm currently watching the Peach Cobbler one, then I'll watch the new one from last night. I tend to like good movies with actors and actresses that I enjoy, such as Allison Sweeney. Can any of you recommend any other good ones? The commercial for the movie with Jewel in it looks good. Is that a series of movies, or just that one? Thanks!

So much happened in this episode and there are so many feelings and opinions posted already, so I really only have 2 comments. 1. Michaela is one of my favorite characters. Ever since she told off Aiden's mother in the restaurant, she's shown her true self. I see a very smart and strong person. She doesn't seem to have any problem telling people (Connor, Asher, etc) exactly what she's thinking. She's not a "yell-er". her voice gets low and very serious when she wants to get an important message across to someone. I love her and I hope that she ends up with exactly who she wants (whoever that may be), or be by herself; she's shown in so many ways that she *can* take care of herself and take matters into her own hands; despite her childhood she got good grades and got herself into law school; she maintains a lovely apartment; she takes good care of herself regarding clothing, her home accessories, etc. She has a big heart and she has empathy which is why she was so upset to see Laurel so upset in her hospital bed, and offered Laurel her help and support. Again, I think Michaela is an awesome person with a smart head on her shoulders and a big heart. 2. Asher. I've watched the episode 3 times now and I keep sensing something else going on in his mind. He seems very distraught about Annalise being in jail and everything is happening to her. When Bonnie said she was going to the jail to see her, Asher said "Tell her I'm sorry...". These lines are written by writers who give every word they type some thought, so I don't believe it was a random comment. Also he looked so serious and intent, bordering on anger or guilt (?) while sitting in the courtroom during Annalise's bail hearing. And yes, Connor has a LOT of issues right now and needed to shut up in Laurel's hospital room but Asher seemed to be really feeling something more than just anger at what Connor was saying. He commented that Connor doesn't even care that Wes is dead. I'm getting guilt vibes from Asher, as if he knows something that he isn't telling anyone. Looking forward to the rest of the season! I hope that Bonnie eventually puts up a great defense for Annalise and get's her out. And for the record, I love(d) Wes and will miss him once he's no longer in flash-backs.
