  1. I wanted to like this show, but after 3 ep's think I'm out. I'm just not enjoying them at all, even though they've been pretty good (but not great or anything). I thought they were going to be more court driven episodes with a bit of a backstory. All the main actors they brought in have been really good. Rachel Bilson was great as ever in this one. Even though I called the twist a mile away, it was still satisfying to see it.
  2. I liked the episode for the most part, def a different take we haven't seen before. Did I miss it or was the name that Al's daughter going to give someone in the present or that she gave Ben to find, aka Sam. Please be that, please be that haha. Hope she joins the team, Ben obviously trusted her.
  3. Actually liked this ep vs all the others simply cause there was just him telling the story's. Yeah the X-Mas outfit was stupid. Agree on all the Wrestlers not quite looking the parts. Hope this means we won't get any of the stupid election, etc. stuff in the future.
  4. I thought this ep was pretty good, but not great. I liked them swerving outside the "his own lifetime" rule so there should be some pretty interesting leaps in the future! That was one thing I didn't like about the original, but got over it pretty quickly since the show was so great. At first I thought it was going to be a TV set, so I was glad it ended up being the real Wild West. I don't mind the romance plot, and glad he remembered when he did. But would like to see some of the other characters as holograms too. I liked seeing Ben rally the town together and having the phrase "love it when a plan comes together" heh. At first I thought it was a Evil Leaper, but didn't think it might be Sam! Overall the show is doing enough to keep me interested and hoping we get the payoff we all want in the end. Would like to see the waiting room, but it's not like we saw that a ton in the original show either. They're doing a great job teasing it all and keeping my interest in it so far.
  5. I went into the show with pretty low expectations after the initial TV spots for it. I LOVE the original (except for not bringing Sam home) so it's pretty well hit the mark for me so far. The one thing that's not doing it for me and they need to re-write it is the introduction speech. I can still say the original's word for word after not seeing it in years. Hell, just use the original's haha. Hope they do that. Her handheld kinda sucks too, no life to it like Al's had. The original show call-out's in the first ep were pretty nice, and held it on it's own without needing Bakula in the pilot (in my opinion). I do really hope he's still open to some cameo's here and there and then last long enough to bring Sam home. The second ep has to be Sam right? I'm gonna guess Al made a promise to his daughter while he was dying to do whatever it takes to bring Sam home. She was secretly working with Ben and didn't trust anyone else in the Quantum Leap project. That's why he took the leap and not Addison. The third ep was pretty good too for the most part and is keeping my interest. A win for the show there.
  6. Also, I never got the whole air hug thing with Julie all season. Obviously it's a COVID-19 prevention thing, but still don't get it. Aren't the house guests quarantined for like a week or so before they enter the house? Don't they get tested before they go in? So she wouldn't get it from the house guests when they come out. Are they worried she's going to give it to them? Then last night she's not there at all on a video call. Just weird from CBS here. Hope she's okay.
  7. But didn't Dr. Will run the game socially and basically picked who he wanted out each week? My main point is I thought Monte's social game was fine, and should have won easily in my opinion. I didn't think Taylor had a great social game either, she was alienating at times. Monte won more comps, had bigger moves, a fine social game. Obviously the jury liked her better and that's all that matters, even if the wrong winner was chosen. It def is, but shouldn't be the only deciding factor.
  8. Trust me I know BB is a social game and that's a big part of it. I just didn't think Monty's social game was that much weaker then Taylor's enough for her to win by a landslide over him. In no way did I see Monty's social game lacking to warrant that result. Jury failed there in my opinion. Did the jury just not like Monty? Never got that vibe everybody in the house didn't like him like some other past "winners". Sucks he played the best game of everybody and didn't win. Lets give it to Taylor cause we like her better, BS.
  9. What on Earth was the jury thinking there? Don't get me wrong and I loved Taylor since early in the season when she was getting bullied by Nicole and Elvis Boy. But in no way should she have won in a landslide over Monty. I thought Monty was gonna win heavily over either Taylor or Turner. That was a joke. Michael or Kyle should have won America's favorite player. Taylor cleaned house. Hope Turner uses that money to make his van into a real Tiny House. Good season overall.
  10. Zingbot was never funny. I'm positive the only reason he gets laughs form the house guests are cause they're locked in the house away from people for 2+ months with no outside contact. It's the very similar to standup comedy where the audience laughs their butt off but if you're watching at home by yourself (which I normally am haha), I'm not laughing as hard (but still laughing) as the audience is. I don't think I've ever laughed out loud at any of his Zings. Michael's a straight up comp beast. It was hilarious watching Tuner as he won it. Don't think anyone saw that coming. They better take a shot at him when they have a chance, or he'll win the whole thing. Something I've been interesting in was Tiny Home Van (and other vehicles) conversions. I've been watching a lot on YouTube haha, surprised there's no show about this yet. So I decided to check out Turners van on his Instagram page. Besides the TV in it, there's not much else (wasn't really impressed). Hope he takes his jury money and upgrades his van. He is living a good van life besides it!
  11. Okay, I'm 4 episodes in and don't think this is the League of their Own TV series I wanted. The first few eps I was confused if this was a re-creation of the movie or it's own thing. It's def it's own thing. I don't really care for the new characters like I did their movie "counterparts". I'm debating even finishing the season. I might do it if I have nothing else to watch, but I'm not in any rush to. What I wished they did was to expand on the movie universe. That was so great, I really don't care about a retelling set in the same time period, same team with different characters. They should have told the story from the Belles, who the Peaches met win the World Series and lost. Kit got traded to them after her tiff with Dottie. Re-cast those characters and tell their story. There was also other years/stories they could have focused on. Just seems like a wasted opportunity to me and not the direction I would have taken.
  12. Man, I was feeling for Taylor earlier in the season and really felt for her in this episode. So Nicole is crying because she has to "throw" a comp and everybody thinks it's about her Mom. Taylor goes in to be a "friend" and not even talk game. She thought she was crying about her Mom thus the "quit" comment. Then Nicole gets all defensive about that and causes that scene. Elvis boy not even in the room then blows up at Taylor. Just horrible. He's gonna be shocked when he comes out of the house and sees what people really think about them. I've been waiting for that side of the house to form an alliance, so that was great to see. I'm glad Kyle stood up for Taylor there.
  13. Wow, I just got chills. They tied that in perfect. This show is really a surprise.
  14. Did I miss what the Police Officer's were on at the fire? Rest of the ep was pretty good as usual.
  15. I was gonna check it out to see if I liked any of the "celebrities", but after they introduced them I checked out. I know of maybe 3 or 4 of them, don't care about the rest so I'll be passing on this season. Hope you guys enjoy it.
  16. I guess I'm part of the unpopular opinion that like's the Jimmy story line haha. I would have been pissed if they just dropped him completely and wondered what came of him. I like the new girl in his life and he better make good on his word and come running back to her. Knowing Jimmy, he'll mess that up haha. So we know that Jamie's Dad set up the hit on the family (right?). Does John know? That's the only thing I'm not sure on. The conversation in the diner kinda confused me on what was going on there.
  17. Count me in with those that hate clip shows, much less Big Brother. If they weren't worthy enough to make it in the season, it's not worth showing it now. I only watched the first 5 minutes of it and FF'd through the rest.
  18. Derek X sure is lucky to be in the jury house with those lady's! I don't think they needed a 2 hour ep for this one, there was a ton of filler here. Was it just my "recording" or was Julie's mic off the entire night? When they had the music overlay and her talking, it was very low and the music was loud. Everything else just fine. Then in the Bleep comp they had a space there for a score, but never showed it! Would have been nice to see the score where everybody was. Producing was lacking this ep.
  19. Those earbuds Owen was wearing weren't real AirPods right? They looked way too big to be real ones. That kept distracting me through the whole episode haha. And yeah, he started acting super dumb as the ep wore on. You guys spelled it out perfectly. This show walks the fine line between being great, and stupid at the same time.
  20. I still really don't care for the "future" story telling scenes. They're all forced and take away from the show in my opinion. I really do like all the story's he's actually telling. It's become one of my favorite new shows because of it. I assume this will get a second season (depending how many stories he has), I hope they re-work the "future" part into something better.
  21. What happened to the Vet crew? Now 2 weeks without them. Enjoying this season so far though, and not missing them haha.
  22. Should have known David didn't win the way the edit was going for him. Wanted that for him. Would have been fine with X-Mas too (based on who she wanted to put up). Glad their alliance is starting to fall apart. I so hope Kevin finally gets sent out this week. What was that? He hasn't been good at all this season on TV. All he does is whine. Yeah he's been on the block how many weeks now, which explains part of that. I'm ready to get him off my screen. The only person I'm rooting now to win is David.
  23. Now this is Big Brother! Yeah Day, you're looking stupid (but still gorgeous as ever). David only has himself to blame. Just playing a stupid game all around after he won his power. Should know better then to trust Memphis with anything. I liked Nicole during her season, but she sucks this one. I don't like what Dani is doing either, but at least it's a plan and working to perfection. She's so smug about it. I don't care about anyone who wins at this point. Nobody deserves it, they should give it all to charity.
  24. I emphasize what Kevin's going through with his identity and all, but I'm glad he's on the block. Hopefully he's the one out, cause all he does on this show is whine which doesn't make good TV. I think David should wait to play the Veto before he uses his power in the off chance he wins it, I know I'm just kidding myself there.
  25. Was Kevin always this annoying? I honestly don't remember. I'm hoping he get kicked out this week. I never got the Nicole Janelle/Kaysar "beef". Can someone remind me what started it? I must of not paid attention haha. These house guests are so stupid and I don't care who wins right now. They haven't figured out who's working with who yet. How nobody's going after the Alpha's in the house is beyond me. Does Enzo think he's included in that group (haha with his first W)? All the rest should be working with each other. Just really stupid.
