And now there's this, make of it what you will: https://tvline.com/2019/08/28/a-million-little-things-season-2-death-who-will-die/ Wasn't sure if I needed the SPOILER protocol since this is already a spoiler thread but I don't want to ruin anything for anyone.

especially since none of the contestants were familiar with credit cards I thought someone said something about the credit card chip, sort of heard that in passing, would have been hilarious if one of them had put a chocolate or butterscotch chip where the microchip is usually embedded.

I wasn't a fan either. They have featured him quite a bit so far -- or he annoyed me so I just noticed him more -- and I had assumed he'd be a finalist. Going to have to rethink the contenders now that he's gone.

Close-ups, so ,many close-ups of sweating. Disgusting commercials, I change the channel when they come on.

I came here to post the same sentiment. I love coffee, but also don't think it goes equally well with the donut flavors they were using. All of the twists are unfair, some more so than others. When will contestants learn to follow the instructions? They were given an example of what their donut should look like....so make it look like that. Don't volunteer for elimination! Would have been interesting if more of the bakers had used bundt pans but as it stood the two up for elimination were the only ones who did. Tarek's donut was the sloppiest thing ever, he should have been in the bottom two and he knew it. Brady plays to the camera and Sophie isn't far behind him in that respect.

Best episode they've ever had. Worked on every level (except the flat-line sound). Panelists were very comfortable with each other and had mutual respect. Mayim and Joel seemed to be in conversation a few times and she also chatted with Kal. Donald and Sarah have known each other for years. The only "odd man out" was Bebe but they encouraged and supported her and she seemed to be enjoying herself while coming up with the best answer of the night. My answers were similar to the ones mentioned above but for this episode I think the game took second place to the panelists. The contestants seemed to have a good time as well. Need this panel back at least once a season, preferably twice.

I didn't care for last night's episode due to the twist. The pairings were bad enough....force someone to work with another person who may not be on the same level....but plans were made and in the process of execution when the rug was pulled out from under them. As it was they already had to make their cupcakes and a platter (forgot what they called it) to display them on). So each pair consulted and came up with their design and who was doing what and then they had to change course and work with a different person. And for what reason? Nothing that I could think of. I don't think I have a favorite but the two who have gone home thus far were probably the right ones to go. A little bit of Tarek goes a long way and I think Brady is going to wear thin.

I was also reminded of John Ritter.

So bad that it's hilarious. But based one just one episode I already prefer it to Worst Cooks.

Felt like I was watching a train wreck....couldn't look away....figured she would be better in the second game with a different partner but no. She tried the face saving "I'm much better playing at home", no consolation for the people paired up with her.

Sarah Chalke was better than I expected.

This is what gets me as well. Nancy was lucky she wasn't permanently maimed or crippled for life. What concerns me here is that Tonya is now a Food Network champion and as such may be brought back for future appearances. I don't think we've seen the last of her.

Best comment of the season.

I wonder if they shot two different endings, one to use if they were renewed and one if they weren't. I can't imagine last night's show being the end of the series.

Thanks....I worked at a college where they didn't have such a position. Usually a dean is ancademic and HR is administrative. Since this is a sitcom what they did is just fine.

I know there's been speculation that Amy is pregnant....she's acting out of character etc. But last night's episode had Mrs Davis offering her booze of some sort (which to be fair we did not see Amy drink) so she either isn't pregnant yet, doesn't know she's pregnant, or the pregnancy speculation is incorrect.

Somehow I thought that Mrs Davis had been moved (promoted?) from HR, perhaps to a dean or some other academic position. No?

Since the first time we saw Jeremiah I've thought that Idol would do everything they could to have his parents show up to support him at a live performance (assuming, of course, that he makes it that far). At this point I would be shocked if we didn't see them.

LOL. Braying goat for sure.

I just love this idea! They could probably do something with Bob Newhart as PP using footage from shows or movies with Suzanne Pleshette. I don't see Chuck Lorre wanting to do this, funny as it would be.

Considering how many country singers appear in the audition shows I would be interested in knowing what percentage of total auditions fall into this category. Maybe we see so many because there just are so many. I love country music but would appreciate hearing other genres as well. I don't enjoy the show getting mileage out misfortune or tragedy. Don't make these families relive it on national television. Regarding "judge lust" -- not entertaining or believable from Katy. From Luke....was this the first time we've seen it? Sometimes I just listen and don't watch the screen so perhaps I'm wrong. He still has a long way to go before reaching Steven Tyler's level. Happily there's none from Lionel although he may smile at Luke & Katy.

I really haven't been a Davis fan this season but I do have to admit that even when he makes mistakes he is leagues above his competitors. I should acknowledge that the way he's been shown and edited contributes to my disliking him. He should be the champion, but my concern is that he will attempt something so difficult, challenging, out-of-the-box that he'll fail in the attempt and one of the girls will win instead.

First episode I've enjoyed this season. The boy with the tall hair....I immediately thought of Beavis and Butthead and couldn't get that out of my mind. Lemongello -- entitlement much? I'm glad he didn't move forward, I think he would have been a distraction and problem in Hollywood for whichever groups he wound up in.

I completely agree. Jaxson is not getting a good edit, hopefully they are being fair to him, but we can only evaluate based on what we are shown. I've been hoping that his parents will give him some guidance. I would only be surprised to see Davis go home this week but of the rest I'm sort of expecting Jaxson to go.

I don't recall the exact line but Maggie's mom (Trudy Monk!) said something to the effect that Gary belonged in a psych ward. Nice tip of the hat to James Roday.
