  1. As someone who has worked in an ED for the last 8 years as the secretary, this one really hit the mark for me. I laughed out loud multiple times and really related to the situations the people were in. Although the new nurse Matt was a little much and we definitely do not have time to all sit down and eat lunch together., everything else was pretty much right. I am definitely in for the season.
  2. Kathy Bates is a joy to watch - it is obvious she is having a blast with this role and I am having a blast watching her. Is it silly and unbelievable? Yes, but most courtroom dramas are. If I want realism, I'll watch Court TV lol. One thing, I get the feeling that Beau Bridges is already figuring her out. My spec is that he suspects that he has a bad attorney in the firm and will eventually call her out on who she is once he puts the pieces together. But he will not turn her in but help her in finding the answer. Also, agree it is the Olympia's new love interest. He is setting her up for a frame job which is why the cabin in November is so important - dude has something planned for that specific weekend which is why he requested it. Holiday weekend, no court, probably setting up an alibi for whatever he has planned. Again, all speculation, no clue if any of it is going to happen but I will be watching.
  3. Dr. Duntsch was not just a character in a show, he was a real-life monster responsible for multiple deaths and permanent physical damage to many people who came to him for help. He is rotting away in prison but got away with it for far too long. If you can stomach it, I highly recommend watching the series on Peacock - Jackson, Christian Slater, and Alec Baldwin are all three amazing in it. Which is why when Phillipa Soo says that this guy seems overqualified, all I could think was she was right. Duntsch relied on people over valuing his abilities which led to him preying on people for years longer than he should have. Seriously, Jackson played him so well, I just cannot see him as an altruistic doctor anymore. All I see is the charismatic sociopath Duntsch. As for the series itself, if the theories that this is his limbo, that could be interesting. If this is just a drama version of The Love Boat, it will lose its place in my viewing schedule very soon.
  4. First off - ties happen - you screwed up, not the gymnasts, give them both the Bronze. Secondly, part of the reason Jordan has been given so much hate is because of this: Olympic Gymnast Lashes Out, Quits Gymnastics After Jordan Chiles' Controversial Score Strips Her of Medal Contention The Romanian gymnast made it clear that she felt she was cheated out of the Broze because of Jordan. No wonder Jordan is taking the blame even though she had nothing to do with this situation. Bad form Sabrina Maneca-Voinea, bad form.
  5. Then Tom, talk to your editing team and maybe have them cut the people saying that they cannot stop eating Dan's dish after eating the other chefs. Maybe don't have them show conversation talking about the errors, mainly on Danny and Savannah's side, with the meals. Last time I checked, this was supposed to be about cooking the best and most consistent meal. By the comments we were allowed to hear as the audience, Dan did that. What I saw on screen was them choosing style (someone who took chances that didn't always pay off) over substance (someone who created a consistent and flavorful meal that was a little bit on the safe side). Don't choose the narrative (and given his history and part in the show as a whole, he was definitely a part of creating the narrative) and get mad that the audience feels fooled when it was a lie.
  6. I appreciate reading the recap and opinions on the end of the series because I cannot watch it yet. I lost my Mom earlier this year and she died a week before the anniversary of my husband's death (he passed away suddenly from a heart attack when I was 32). Needless to say, January and I are no longer on good terms. I am still dealing with my Mom's death and am, in general, avoiding anything remotely dealing with the loss of a parent. I am still too raw. I love this show and we would watch this and Big Bang together whenever I visited which never seemed like often enough. But right now, it just hits too many of my triggers to be anywhere close to an enjoyable watch. I applaud those who could watch it, I just can't yet.
  7. The first half was bad but that second half and OT were great. I enjoy the game more when it is close. For all the complaining about Taylor being onscreen, "the 34-year-old singer/songwriter was on all of 55 seconds (51 seconds before the game-winning touchdown) out of a broadcast that took about four hours and 18 minutes to complete. This is counting her sightings from kickoff until the game went final." USA Today
  8. This is Last Week Tonight's first time in this category - they were moved from the other category (Talk Show I think) because technically, they are not one. They don't have guests lol
  9. I am so ready to be done with this year for many personal reasons but losing two of my favorite actors/characters from two of my favorite shows in the last few months is the final straw. Matthew Perry was my crush in my college years, imperfect but quick-witted with a good heart, just like Chandler. Now we have lost Andre Braugher whose Raymond Holt was a perfect foil/father figure for Jake. I never watched Homicide so I cannot speak to him as a dramatic actor but his Holt never failed to make me smile. He really shined with Andy Samberg and I loved them together in witness protection, Holt officiating Jake and Amy's wedding or crashing their honeymoon. I think season 6 was my favorite season of Holt and the drinking contest episode, where he downed the last bottle of wine to save the bar, may be one of the best. Rest in peace Andre. My deepest condolences to your family and friends during this horrible time.
  10. I don't know who Heather is either but I think Cynthia's nerves caught up to her in the end. Me and my daughter both said "Pentagon" immediately after the clue was revealed and I am sure Cynthia is kicking herself because she missed it. Here is my thing, if she had taken advantage of the Double Jeopardy categories instead of wagering conservatively, she could have run away with this game. Wil Wheaton is the only celebrity I have seen really take advantage of these and it was great and won him his game. You are still walking away with at least $30,000 no matter where you place, take some chances. I loved all the contestants reaction to the Triple Jeopardy and Final Jeopardy categories. They obviously were there to win but not at the expense of having fun. And I love that they kept giving Heather a hard time about the Doctor Game and Ken's response that that is not the same game as Operation lol.
  11. At the end of the first episode, Frasier bought the building and offered to let both Freddy and not-GF to live in there rent-free as long as Freddy moved in with him so they could bond. She immediately agreed and I would too - free rent of a nice apartment in Boston as a single mom. Hell yeah!
  12. Man, this one is a tough one for me to judge because it hit a little too close to home for me. As a widow of a fallen firefighter whose flag is sitting in a box on my mantle right now, and then the final whammy of John Mahoney, I got a little teary eyed. I like Freddy and that he chose his own path while I can also understand the distance that would put between father and son. I do believe them as father and son and am excited to see Bebe back as Lillith sometime this season. Not sure how I feel about David yet, not seeing him as Daphne's son. Niles, yes, but not Daphne.

    First of all, excellent performance by the women and cannot wait for Worlds in October. Secondly, can someone please explain the individual medals to me. I love Jocelyn but Simone had a higher point total so how did she not even place on vault? Can someone please explain?
  14. Anyone else seeing a link between Claim to Fame and the Masked Singer? Jenny McCarthy is a judge and Donny Osmond came in 2nd place on the show one season... That is another reason these contestants may know Donny - he experienced an uptake in publicity in 2019 because of the show and appeared on the show in 2022. It's not like Donny has been hiding in the shadows. Also, could the mask and dog clues be for Donny and not Jim Carrey? As we saw last night, the clues can be manipulated by the contestants to connect to any celebrity.
  15. First off, my 12-yr old granddaughter started laughing out loud when the group said Elton John. Thanks to Dua Lipa, even she knows who he is and that there was no way he was related to Chris. Secondly, as a child of the 80's I remember Donny Osmond making a little bit of a mainstream comeback with two songs - Soldier of Love and Sacred Emotion. Both were hits in 1989 and his face was everywhere while he promoted the songs. Chris is the spitting image of his Dad at that time.
