The thing that really stood out about today’s episode was how absolutely gorgeous the entire cast was. Well, NL looked sort of ragged and AW was a little pale, but otherwise almost everyone looked great. And when did JZ and LC decide to mess with their faces? Even they looked good. Production values were so much better then. The sets looked fabulous, not cheap and gray. And I think the entire cast was represented on this Christmas show, not just a select few. Georgie! OG Dillon! Ric! Alan! Audrey! Lainey! So many characters besides the unholy Trinity. Even the red headed menace was there. And more than a couple of kids.

I would love to see them move Kiki back to Michael’s orbit. Especially since her mom is teaming up with Nelle over this baby. So much potential for conflict and angst here, which means it will never happen.

That opening number was quite possibly one of the worst things I've ever seen on this show - and that's saying something. Awful! Whose bright idea was it to include Amy 2.0? She's beyond awful. Nothing compelling about her at all. And I agree about Lulu's dress being all kinds of awful awesomeness!

Thanks, CBS for freeing up my 8-9 hour. What was once one of my favorite shows has become virtually unwatchable this season. I hate the new characters - not sure which is worse, the horrible acting (and blindingly white teeth) of Quinn or the other new guy and his issues. Boring! I actually don't mind the MI-6 guy, but the other two are destroying the show. They're not needed and are not fitting in.
