Pamela

Two episodes in (I haven't watched tonight's yet) and I'm really enjoying this show. I just like the feel of it, you know? It's quirky, but not self-consciously so. And both Wyatt Russell and Sonya Cassidy are terrific; they are very convincing as siblings. Plus, that scene in the second episode when Liz is cleaning the fridge and then she just gets inside and closes the door...that killed me in the best way. (Although it did make me think of that infamous Punky Brewster episode.)

I teared up at the wedding, just a little. And then again at the end. This was a terrific show and I'm going to miss it.

And this time, they really mean it. Probably.

I saw a couple of reports that Scorpion had been cancelled, but now those stories seem to have disappeared. Hmmmm.

That may have been the shoutiest jury questioning yet. Someone really needed to remind Paras and Kaela that they were mic'd up and didn't need to yell. And colour me surprised that Paras ended up taking it. I thought the vote would be closer and Kaela would win. Not unpleasantly surprised, but still.

My favourite was "Knock It Off, Pamela." For obvious reasons.

Agreed. That girl is a peach.

The bit with Schmidt reading Nick's (bizarrely short) list of words that rhyme with moon killed me. Max Greenfield's one-of-a-kind line deliveries are a treasure.

I love this thread so much. Thanks for keeping it going, ElectricBoogaloo.

David being able to tell Patrick that he loved him was unsurprisingly wonderful, but when Patrick mentioned the tea (and David's "Fuuuck" response)...goodness. My neighbours probably heard me laughing. Alexis and Ted finally being on the same page was pretty much perfect, too. This show really does season finales well.

Seeing Rogelio in tears pretty much wrecked me.

David and Patrick are my current favourite tv couple. Hopefully, this is just a small bump in the road. (And David asking Patrick to bring him "a smattering of everything" is so perfectly David.)

That was my favourite part of the episode. "Hello, Colombian kidnappers?"

For me, it's Mitchell. I feel like Jesse Tyler Ferguson is criminally underrated on this show. I also have a huge soft spot for the original Lily. Her serious wee face killed me.

I absolutely loved this series. And I am not generally a Western fan. But the performances (Merritt Wever, especially), the writing, and that heartbreakingly gorgeous cinematography all hit me just right. The rapid elimination of the Buffalo Soldiers was a surprise; an alliance between them and the women of La Belle would have been unstoppable, I felt, but the ladies did just fine on their own. (Although at one point, I did say aloud "Where the hell are Roy and Bill? Just get there already.") I swear, I barely breathed during that entire shootout. And all those beautiful horses! It gave me such a yen to go horseback riding, and I haven't done that in forever.

"God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay-may-maaay-may-may!" I love this show so much.

I believe they were specifically "children's dance recitals" and "holiday weekend at IKEA".

The closed captioning confirmed you did.

"Soul food from Maine, bagels from Arkansas, and of course, Hawaiian pizza." That got a huge laugh from me because a few co-workers and I spent part of today's lunch hour debating the merits (and horrors) of Hawaiian pizza. For the record, it was two in favour and two VEHEMENTLY against. (I was one of the latter. Fruit on pizza definitely belongs on the menu in the Bad Place.)

I'm only familiar with Chris Geere from watching You're The Worst, so I really enjoyed seeing him in such a different role. He was awfully appealing in this, so I hope he sticks around for a while. Loved Manny saying that the mystery girl's name was "something Latin-y" and Gloria's appalled response: "YOU used to be something Latin-y!"

Crocodile tears, maybe?

I'm with Mack -- a future with no tacos is a future I want no part of.

Yes! I just did a rewatch of Bent a few months ago and I got sad about it all over again. It was SO GOOD. NBC, you blew that one big time.

With blatant producer manipulation like we saw tonight, it felt more like watching Big Brother than Survivor. (And don't get me wrong -- I love Big Brother. But y'all know what I'm talking about.) I'm not particularly fond of Chrissy, but she got screwed. A lousy end to a meh season.

Regardless of my feelings on this season in general (mostly "Meh" with a too-infrequent sprinkling of "Yes, that's the show I love"), Chris Geere is absolutely killing it this year. He's making Jimmy's sadness and quiet desperation increasingly obvious each week. In a really talented cast, he's the standout.
