Last night I watched a re run of that annoying AF family from Michigan where the over bearing mother moved them to Iceland against their will. Mind you, I get that she wanted her children to be resilient and unafraid of change, those are good things to foster and encourage in children and adults. But man, that mom was a royal PITA. The way the dad spoke about her, they should have stayed in Michigan and gotten themselves into couples counseling instead of selling everything they owned and moving to Iceland.
Iceland episode bothered me as much as it did the first time and the exchange in front of House #3 (Wife: "It's what we were looking for." / Husband: "It's what YOU were looking for.") summed up the episode for me. Did the husband and wife like each other at all, much less respect each other? The end-episode tag scene said they enrolled the kids in an Icelandic school and traveled what appeared like every weekend so do the boys have new friends at all? Wife made it a point to say that "Teddy" was doing well, was that the middle son that locked himself in his room when he first was told about the move? (How "willing" were the two younger boys to share a room, I wonder?) How are they paying for all of this travel if she doesn't have a job?
I really would like a follow-up to this one to see when they end up moving back to Michigan, with or without the wife!-

The Virginia to Brasilito, Costa Rica episode was strange. I didn't buy the reason she gave for wanting to move, Mia was obnoxious the entire time (I feel bad saying that about a ten-year-old child, but it's true) and seemed to rule the roost over her mom, and they ended up with a one-bedroom house.

Look at Yasuda out here learning that she can't depend on her colleagues/superiors to behave professionally at work and applying that to her relationship with Helm. Better for her to break it off with Helm now before Yasuda resented her more than she did already. Lucas McNephew is staying on the show as far as we know, is there a way for Yasuda to take Pierce up on the Chicago residency offer?
Meredith is so cold and emotionally detached when she talks to Nick, I find it hard to believe she loves him or would buy that house with him. Good on Nick for telling her how he's uprooted his life for her so many times and he's not going to do it again. No, Meredith, telling Nick that "you've always been bad at relationships" doesn't make it better. Good on Nick for telling her that, too. Why are two interns that Meredith/Amelia barely know being brought into the secret research when Meredith's live-in partner/free babysitter for her kids was literally right there the entire time?
I don't know what Teddy and Meredith expected to happen when Teddy told Catherine to her face that she spent the discretionary fund on research Meredith knew had to be done in secret. The way Catherine made her random visit to Amelia's lab and only Amelia's lab, who do we think it was that tipped her off?

They’re really backing the bus over Ava. Now she’s the reason Alexis lost her law license? And over Julian, who IIRC was in a full on relationship with someone else before Alexis ever laid eyes on Neil.
Funny that they mentioned Julian, because this is the exact same box-the-character-into-a-corner writing Julian got just before he was murdered.
"This little girl's" mom is Elizabeth's sister, Finn, so yes she does get some sort of a say in what happens to her niece. Hayden didn't abandon or walk out on you, she disappeared under mysterious circumstances soon after she delivered Violet to you and is presumed dead. The absolute weirdest part of the entire Finn/Elizabeth relationship is how the show is determined to gloss over not only the fact that Elizabeth is Hayden's sister and thus Violet's aunt but also that for years neither Finn nor Elizabeth care to look for where Hayden actually is.

Haven't watched the finale yet, only read about it, but based on the recap the Shaun/Glassman ending gave me House/Wilson vibes at the end of House.

It was a misstep not to mention Trudy's parents in the reunion movie. The fiancé's murder meant no wedding - at which we'd have logically seen Ellisons had the ceremony happened - so it was easy not to include the actors on screen, but to not mention the characters at all was odd; if Molly is this heavily entwined with the guy who happened to marry her biological mom after she was born, she'd logically also have sought out - and which they'd, based on their characterization, have eaten up - a relationship with her biological maternal grandparents, so it was weird not to devote a couple of seconds to referencing them. Trudy's parents adoring Monk, and vice versa, was a great element of the original series.
I still haven't seen the movie (refuse to buy a streaming service solely to watch one show once) but it does surprise me that Monk never mentioned Trudy's parents in relation to Molly's engagement/wedding. It doesn't correlate with what we knew of them from the show that Trudy's parents wouldn't want to know their late daughter's secret daughter, but maybe something happened in the twelve years we didn't see. Maybe the exact truth of Molly's conception and Trudy's death and how those two things intertwined was ultimately too emotionally difficult for the Ellisons...

Considering she spent all of this season getting punished for something she didn't even do I hope Yasuda can get an exit like Stephanie (minus the rapist and the fire) where she realizes she's better than Grey-Sloan and needs to peace out for her own sake.
Send her to Switzerland to work with Cristina.

So I think a lot of the Porter family has a problem...
Jontay Porter - gambled on the sport, which is the least egregious given what his other brothers have done.
Coban Porter - just sentenced to six years in prison for killing someone in a drunk driving crash.
Jevon Porter - arrested for suspicion of DWI.
I'm kidding but not kidding. How many brothers does MPJ have?!

This was the second time this season that I recognized voices. I was surprised that none on the panel thought about Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard. Years ago they didn’t key in on Chris Daughtry, either, suggesting American Idol is not on their radar.
Noted, I haven't watched this show except for a couple of clips now and then that friends send me to see "Does this sound like XXX Person to you?". And I don't know, are the judges instructed not to be right on all of their guesses? Because Clay is arguably one of the most recognizable voices from Idol, IMO.

I can understand why Rita wouldn't know who Clay and Ruben were because American Idol wasn't on in England. I don't know why the others didn't know them.

I'd need to go back to watch the backstory at the beginning, did she want to move in the first place? They ended up with the house in the neighborhood she didn't want and she didn't pretend to look happy about their final choice.

Newlyweds Dan and Emily in Chicago - now I understand why they'd been house hunting for five months and had already outlasted one broker. She didn't like anything in any of the houses (everything she wanted to gut/renovate and she wanted to complain to the city about the power lines at the third house) and I wasn't sure that she even liked her husband, TBH.

It'll be a root for the Western Conference winner all the way in those Finals. There is no way in hell that either the Celtics or (especially) Knicks are remotely rootable. Now, I don't mind somewhat rooting for Indiana.
As for LeBron, him & his team are going away for the season. But, LeBron is not "going away." I'm sure that ESPN is find a way to invoke him in some way in the Playoffs. Whether, if its by showing us his Social Media (which they do all the time sadly) during the rest of the Playoffs, talking about possibly leaving the Lakers (I think he's somewhat of a Free Agent this offseason), and/of that very stupid stomach-turning, migraine-inducing legacy-GOAT debate nonsense.
I want to say he has a player option for next season? Is there any word on what Bronny plans to do and/or does LeBron still want to play with him? (More importantly, does Bronny want it to forever be a question in the back of his mind if the eventual team that drafts him only did so to get his dad for a season?)

Just when you thought the North Dakota to Naples, FL woman couldn't look more hideous.
I never saw the original episode and my first thought after the recap was: he hates her for making them move to Florida and buy that house.

S20.E10: Burn It Down
in Grey's Anatomy
The promise of root beer floats with Pru and the "I love you, Miranda Bailey" sounded ominous even though Ben was registered safe on McNephew's database. Don't you dare kill Ben on Station 19, Grey's.
