Snow Apple

I'm tired of Mary and Audrey provoking each other and I agree Audrey is the worst of the two. I like Conner's girlfriend and hope she's strong enough to survive Audrey but if it was real life, I would advise her to run.

I always thought Ben and Becky had more chemistry, friendship, compassion, and respect for each other than Ben and Darlene ever did.

Maybe Bernadette fell asleep watching reruns of Night Court and that's why people who look like her family and friends are popping up in this universe she's dreaming about. Her subconscious knows she's married to Howard and that's why he shows up right at this exact moment.

Husband? What? There's got to be an explanation because she was engaged to Rand and now about to accept Jake's proposal.

So Fat Tony has a "youngest son" as in more than one? Is that Michael and that's why he hasn't been seen or mentioned?

I'm with Thor. Cod pockets sound delicious, especially if mixed with a good sauce and veggies. I thought they were going to introduce Kyle to Bela. But I guess having two people who can see ghosts is "too many cooks" for the premise of the show. The fun is Jay who can't see the ghosts so he's confused, but participate in the joy and sorrow anyway (like how he cheered for Sass in the end like all the others). Maybe Kyle can visit once a year, like Stephanie (I know she lives there but she only appear about once a year).

I'm still annoyed they had the money for Harris's boyfriend (cute but a useless character), but didn't bring DJ back to say one line. Michael is being gracious but what a slap in the face.

I agree with you about Darlene's attitude that and Mark did the right thing. You got to take opportunities now because it may not be there tomorrow. Mark can always go back to school and he'll have savings from a six-figure salary to afford it and work experience which is huge in the business world. That reminded me of how Darlene turned down an advertising job for over $30k in 1996 (over 60k in today's money according to Google), but she wanted to stay in school which upset the rest of the struggling family.

I love the whole "I/she leaned" conversations. LOL Trevor always forget Stephanie is technically older than him but I sure he still feels icky since she's forever 17 or 18. Stephanie is still a bit of a mean girl but I'm glad she found out her boyfriend and best friend didn't betray her. She was happy they still cared enough to name their daughter after her.

I was wondering why Becky needed a truck too. She's an office worker now so why not a nice car with all the features? Why a truck? But I'm glad Tyler didn't run off with her paycheck. That's where my mind went when she signed it over to him. We are talking about the Conners after all. LOL I hate every time they say David is a deadbeat dad. David is weak and maybe can't afford child support but I can't see him completely abandoning his children. They could just throw in a line that the kids are "at their dad's" once in a while. Harris and Mark are not in every episode so that's a good excuse.

I'm good with that ending. Mark is no longer hacking and acknowledged all that Darlene tried to do for him. Darlene and Ben are working it out. Becky and Dan finally found love again. DJ should have been there though, or at least they should have mentioned him, but he's probably happy with his wife and daughter so that's good too. Jackie being a cop again and not just a desk job is unrealistic, but I'm glad she got her happy ending too. In this episode, some of John Goodman's acting, voice, and facial expressions reminded me so much of the Dan in the original series. I haven't seen it that much in the reboot but perhaps I missed those moments.

AntennaTV just showed Give My Regrets to Broadway. Alice's actress friend visits and Tommy got the part of Romeo in her play. I laugh every time I see this episode because her the friend's name is Julia Roberts. And they say her full name so many times too. Normally people say Julia or Ms. Roberts after introductions, but they keep saying Julia Roberts.

I recently saw the episode where Marcia got hit on the nose with a football, and I was taken aback at how short her dresses were now that I'm looking at them in 2025. Funny how the length was so normal back then; just enough to cover underwear. But at least they weren't as short as little Cindy's dresses (which I probably also wore way back when. LOL)

Laurie played Mary on The Big Bang Theory, and Zoe played the younger version on Young Sheldon. I was shocked how effortlessly she embodied the same character her mom played for years.

So stupid. We all want to go to Ivy or UofC, but we have to go where we can afford, especially if a parent sacrificed so much. That's if we can afford any college at all and not need to work right after high school for basic needs. Mark was such a sweetie pie as a child, but grew up to be an unappreciative jerk. Worst than Darlene in the original series when she went dark; at least she still cared underneath the snark and tried to do the right things. Even Becky just ran away when they couldn't afford college and didn't turn to a life of crime. Darlene warned him. I hope the writers have the balls so send him to prison.
