    Go Wills!  Standing strong and looking snappy

    I admit Wills didn't really register with me until that scene, but now I love him. I think that his grace in getting up and yeilding his seat for a couple of minutes, combined with his strength as he insisted on taking it back, will have scored big with Becca.

    I will say the June-Lydia scene does give the impression that June isn't clear on who outranks who either.  There was air of tattling on Serena in hopes that Lydia would overrule her and of course when she didn't, June looked positively crushed.

    I agree. June could at least tell Aunt Lydia, in the hope she'd intervene and overrule Mrs. Waterford regarding required breastfeeding. I ALSO think June doesn't really want Aunt Lydia as the baby's godmother. I think she is planting seeds that will paint Commander Waterford as an abuser and therefore a danger to the baby.

    I'm still not sure what was wrong with baby Angela/Charlotte. Was she experiencing failure to thrive from lack of touching/holding/loving? I can see Momma Putnam not being super maternal. 

    Yes, I do think that baby Charlotte/Angela has been literally showing failure to thrive because she hasn't been touched or loved enough by Mrs. Putnam (who hasn't shown any signs of maternal attachment, just frustration with and distaste for the child). It's a genuine and tragic pediatric diagnosis - anybody else remember Harlow's monkeys and their wire vs. cloth-covered 'mothers'? https://harlows-monkey.com/home/why-harlows-monkey/

    I'm not surprised that the baby responded to Jeanine/Ofwarren, but the transition from NICU to happy healthy baby overnight seemed a bit too magical. I guess it was all those pious prayers pouring out of Gilead.

    Cheers to Austin for bringing a six pack of Great Lakes Oktoberfest beer to his parents ( I live 15 minutes from Great Lakes Brewery), but starting your own brewery is a bit out of his wheelhouse

    Agreed! Austin likes drinking beer. And it seems he was pretty good at selling beer. But, that is a far cry from brewing beer. And bottling it and selling it is a whole 'nother game. Plus if he ever even thinks about opening up a bar, he first needs to sit down and binge-watch Bar Rescue.

  5. This episode didn't have nearly enough of Miss Patricia.  When does she get her own 'Southern finishing school' show??  The uniforms could be her caftans.  "Ladies, leave something to the imagination; skip the body-con dresses and try a billowy fabric!"

    I like Austin's family and his mom's no nonsense stance with him. I also have a soft spot for him due to his family's tragic back story but beer brewers are a dime a dozen now a days. My husband recently came home and told me he wanted to open a bar. I laughed and laughed. We live in Beer City, USA where there is a bar in every corner and a brewer on every block. I told him not to quit his day job :)

    @Mountainair, don't tell me you're in Asheville, too! Because my husband has told me the same thing about opening a bar.  I don't think we should let them meet - some talk about 'craft brew' and 'mixology' would be inevitable, and who knows what kind of crazy business they'd come up with...

  7. I have a feeling that people still learning how to be good and a demon who did his first selfless act aren't yet ready to enter the actual Good Place. 

    My prediction: the Judge will send the whole gang plus Micheal to the Medium Place to stay with Mindy St.Clair (and GoodJanet's ex, Derek)

    I hate being so shallow but I hate the way the women dress on New Jersey reunions. To me, it is the height of ridiculous. Only Melissa looks well dressed. These ball gowns ( and for me, this goes for all the reunions) makes clowns of them all. I really think this is Bravo/Andy's goal.

    I fully agree!  Not just at the reunion, either - we saw waaaay too many v-necks cut down to the navel this season.  Open reminder to all Howives: Just because you CAN wear a dress doesn't mean you SHOULD.

    I think they've both acted obnoxiously, so it's interesting that only Siggy is being blamed mostly.

    I think Siggy is being blamed because she just won't let any fight go, even after receiving - and accepting - a genuine apology from anyone.

    I haven't watched this show since the early episodes of last season when I gave up in disgust.  I recall people here always hating Carl and making fun of him and his hat.  Watched last night's episode because I heard talk in the media that many were speculating Carl would die.  Came here expecting a chorus of "hallelujah at long last we are free of Carl" and I am a bit surprised to see so much lamenting that he was the center of the show.  

    Did Carl improve sometime during the last season and a half?  I may go back and catch up.

    Yes, at some point he grew up and stopped being annoying. I've seen that happen with kids in real life, too.

    The small-talk trash-talk segments are so bad! Most of these people aren't natural assholes and they stand there awkwardly trying to talk smack and failing sadly. Give it up, show. Let them just tattoo. You can cast arrogant assholes for the leftover spots later.

    Yeah, it really doesn't fit with the style of this show, compared to IM Original, to have this fake trash talking thrown in. It's the worst part of every IM to begin with. It's somehow worse here. 

    The local trash talk is unnecessary, just like the trash talk on original recipe Ink Master. Please, Show(s), just let us watch more of the artistic process, more in-depth views of the work itself, more of the judges debating the tattoos - anything but that fake producer-driven nonsense.

      I hope that Graydon will take some time to finish his canvas' tattoo the way he really wanted to.  

    I think that would definitely fit the spirit of helping a person who has finally gotten her life back together  It will look even better finished, but she likely doesn't have much $ to spare to pay someone good to finish it.

    On a shallow note: I hadn't realized how attractive Nicki is, until I saw her when she was tattooing and her makeup wasn't nearly as heavy.  I think I remember one of the other artists calling her out on her season for looking way older than she is - I'm convinced her super-heavy makeup application is to blame.

    I just can't with this show's "artistic" time shuffling

    I FULLY agree. I wish this show would 'experiment' with a linear episode or two.

    For me, the problem with all the time-jumping and remembered/dreamed/imagined scenes is that EVERYONE LOOKS THE SAME. Same dirty clothes, same scenery, same players - except Rick's beard, which: what was THAT about?? t's not like we are getting obvious hints like "oh! so much tie-dye! this must be the sixties.." or, "oh! see how much longer her hair is? this is from before she shaved it all off...".  

    It's frustrating and confusing to not follow an episode until rewatching after the whole season is over and having seen the whole picture.

  13. I've gotta disagree with...seemingly everyone! about Kelly.  I like her, her energy doesn't bother me.  And I'd die to have one of her tattoos.  I really think all of the Angels are settling in nicely to their hosting duties.  I'm a little obsessed with Ink Master in general, and I'm definitely continuing to watch this spinoff.

  14. My husband and I were sure Shania Twain was lip-synching her whole appearance on this episode of AGT, and she clearly didn't remember all of the lyrics. That's pretty depressing considering all the other amazing live talent we heard. Way to phone it in, Shania!
