  1. I'm a year into watching this show (randomly) since Start TV added it. I finally saw the final arc this week - it was really silly and overblown, but watchable (once). However when I get around to watching the whole series in order I will cut it off with Sharon's funeral scene. Dylan was annoying AF (who cares about him and his underage girlfriend?), Emma's death was lifted from Friday the 13th, the body count was ridiculous (and none of them mattered anyway), the veteran characters were mostly kicked to the curb, and Rusty gets away with murder? That scene just didn't work at all. Some good moments here and there, but not enough to sit through again.

  2. That reminded me of Dan and Roseanne's big blowup on "Roseanne", only without the trashed furniture. These actors are tremendous - Zoe's getting better material than her mother these days. 

    I wonder if they'll pick up at the same place or do a time jump. If Iain has a height surge and a voice change in the next four months the continuity will be wrecked, unless they planned ahead and already shot the next episode.

  3. Mary didn't even come to dinner after being called - I guess she only gets one token appearance per episode.

    "Are you still on that?" Thank you, Ben. 

    Laurie Metcalf must be making good bucks for this pitiful, cartoonish character.

    I too would rather see a whole episode with Barb and Louise.

  4. "Why am I the only normal one in this family?"

    It was great to have the six main regulars together and bouncing off each other for the first time in ages. Hopefully we'll get more of that next season and fewer isolated subplots. 

    Sheldon ran off at the end of the opening sequence - I've never seen that before. 

    I didn't read the summary but I hope it's not a tragic clilffhanger.

  5. Sigh. I had some problems with the writing this season but I still looked forward to watching every week. I loved these characters and actors. Gutted to lose this and The Kids Are Alright at the same time - I really enjoyed that show too.

    This episode was a lot better than some of the recent ones

    Agreed - even Mr. Powers was less campy than usual. I've been waiting for a Ray drunk scene and they delivered.

    I have nothing against Sarah Chalke but her character just doesn't interest me. I'd rather see Marin Hinkle but she appears to be in another show.
