  1. Yeah, co-signing and letting a neighbor/friend access your bank account is never a good idea.  You might as well be waving bye-bye to all of your money.  I’ve always figured when you loan money to someone you’ll never see it again.  James didn’t deserve what he got but with the way he was treating Angela what was it going to take to end this.  Then he wanted to borrow money from her father.  Was he going to ruin that man’s credit as well?   I guess Angela didn’t own a gun, I don’t recall how many other times on this show that the killer didn’t use a gun to murder the victim.

    I wonder why she needed to stay with Donna and her family after her “difficult” divorce?  She evidently had enough money for a down payment on a home so that would mean she had enough money to rent a room at the Comfort Inn.

    Waiting for the division of assets to be finalized?  Good question, who knows what the deal was.  It wasn’t like come stay with me until you close on the house next door, if it was working out that house likely would have been sitting on the market longer.  I’ve been trying to find additional information about this incident online and I can’t find anything.  Sometimes those online articles have an additional detail or two that the show didn’t cover for whatever reason.

  3. Ann is a vile woman.  I thought it was ironic that she wanted Donna to be put in jail yet she’s now there for a long time.  I thought 35 years wasn’t enough either, she should have gotten life.  I thought since Donna was shot in the face she wasn’t going to make it.  I can’t imagine what it was like for her to find out later her husband was also shot but didn’t survive.

    Our HOA sent out information on two people running for the board. Each person mentioned how they want neighbors to get to know each other and have community events, block parties..... I looked at my husband and said "no thanks", I watch Fear Thy Neighbor

    Forced socialization … ugh.  If people in your neighborhood were interested they’d be doing it on their own.  A bunch of my neighbors the next street over hang out outside their homes to socialize when it’s warm and it’s not HOA sponsored or whatever.  In your case I’d be questioning how these activities would be funded, through HOA membership or participants paying. 

    Anyway, about this week’s episode, I hope the family suing the neighbor and the town get the $$ they’re looking for.  Major failure on the police department, I’d think they’d be asking both parties the same set of questions.  Perhaps then this tragedy could have been averted since the people in that neighborhood otherwise seemed like they got along.

    After seeing this new season I’d be terrified to purchase a new house. 

    I live in a first floor condo that I own.   The unit upstairs has been a rental for most of the time I’ve lived here.  Each time a new tenant moves in I cross my fingers that they’re not going to be a lunatic.  It’s mostly been okay (except for one extremely noisy one that I sort of succeeded in getting to quiet down without having to ever call the police) but I know what you mean.  

    A while back ID used to have the roommate equivalent of this show that made me wary of ever letting anyone, even people who I’d think I know pretty well to move in with me if they’d fall on hard times.  That’s when you find out they’re crazy and they’d do anything, even murder you to get what they want.

    Also, for someone who's all about wanting to protect his family from "sin" and all that sort of thing, living in suburban Vegas, of all places, is certainly...a choice. As is shooting someone in front of your child. Really teaching her good moral values there, mmhm. 

    That now his daughter is now growing up with a father in prison, I’m sorry to say with the way he was depicted in the episode maybe that is a good thing.  

     When the dog escaped out of the yard then Andrew built the barrier to keep it from leaving again I thought it was a good idea since the dog could run out in to the street and get hit by a car.  Then when it went missing I wonder now if it high tailed it out of there because of Andrew, lol.  It seems like with this show whenever there’s a loose dog involved the other neighbor has a problem with it but not this time.

  7. Regarding that first episode, that guy Hector was a real control freak.  When they first showed his wife and explained how she was locked in the house all the time I was thinking she was a kidnap victim before I realized he was just a control freak and a jerk.  I’m glad he’s locked up for a long time but sad that it took years for it to happen.  Ana seemed like a sweet person and she didn’t deserve what she got for helping her neighbor. 
     

    That second episode … I’ll never understand how anyone could keep bullying someone else and not expect a blowup of epic proportions eventually, especially when both sides have guns.  Those kids who went outside to see what was happening should have just stayed inside for their safety.

    Fan challenge was pretty easy for those guys.  Miley was super peppy and the guy was good (can't remember his name.  Began with a J maybe?)

    I think his name was John.  Anyway, I liked the pairing and overall it was a good episode.  It seemed like they were both well prepared and enthusiastic about the challenge.

    That's a great idea going on Alone.  I was thinking about Max too, on Alone

    I was thinking he would be great for Solo that they just aired but that was 21 days and you’re out of there (unless they raise it the next time if they do it again) and I think he’d make that easily.  I’d like to see how long he’d last on a show like Alone as well.  I don’t remember offhand how long he went alone on his first XL but to see him compete against others without interacting with them would be interesting.

    I assume that poor women became his wife and had her brain eaten by the slug things.

    In Wrath of Khan while still on Ceti Alpha V, Khan made a remark about the fate of his “beloved wife” before he has one of his crew insert Ceti eels into both Chekhov’s and Terrell’s ears.  At the time the movie was made they did consider including her in the story but if I remember correctly they did not because the actress who played her in Space Seed was suffering from MS and not in good health.  I think what they did with the character made for a better story as it made Khan’s motivation to exact revenge on Kirk stronger.

    As far as Janet goes, as I think I understand it, the Chinese had sent her back into the past to 1992 (I think that's the date).

    It was 2012 but that’s pretty much it.

    Okay, I admit it. I'm so confused.

    I don't understand the Janet storyline at all. And apparently she's the key to what's happening now?

    Also, is George the unlikeable trash human I've come to think he is? Or am I misreading him?

    I’m planning to go back and watch the episodes again because I didn’t quite follow what the deal was with Janet either.  All I know she’s the one who went through those numerous time loops giving birth over and over again.  

    About George, yeah.  He shot Shiv and had to endure that scene over and over again.  Fortunate for him the nosy neighbor from across the hall happened to be a paramedic who could help Shiv from at least dying on the spot there.   At the end of the scene there it looks like no one is urgently calling for the ambulance.  Shiv will talk if he can make it to a hospital and be saved.  I still see George as a selfish person who just wants to save himself.  

    It looks like Sarah took the serum.  Sure, Sarah is adventurous but why would anyone just take something like that from a person who doesn’t even have a medical background?  She must really trust George.

    Jeff definitely overplayed the villain part the entire season.  The show needed someone to go against the group, and Jeff was happy to oblige.

    The group's reaction to Jeff, particularly from Matt and Waz, was more off-putting than Jeff's actual behavior.  I found them both to be sanctimonious twits in this go round.

    Once Gary and Steven tapped, I had no interest in watching the rest.

    Yes, Jeff did overplay the villain shtick.  IMO it seemed he had many of the talking head segments in comparison to the others.  I might be wrong, though.  I just don’t like him and any time he showed up I cringed.  

    About how everyone else reacted to him I think a lot of it went back to their shared history on the show together/multiple appearances that the others probably watched on their own so they knew the behavior they were dealing with.  I wonder if they put together a completely different group for next time that had people with 1 or 2 appearances each if there would be the same type of reaction to the designated “villain”.  

    The producers should really take a bunch of people we don’t know that well for next time to keep us guessing who is the most cutthroat of the bunch.  Enough with these regulars.  

    I did not watch the last 2 airings.  I had enough before then.

    Sarah dumping George and getting married so soon is kind of hilarious to me, and I did not feel bad for him.

    George constantly trying to cover his dumb, selfish tracks is getting kind of old, though. And he continues to be unlikeable to me.

    If he’s meant to be the protagonist we’re supposed to be rooting for I’ll be disappointed.   The show’s been renewed so we’ll see where it goes.  I hope he gets his comeuppance.

    The Orlando group is so much more entertaining. I know they're all scripted, but the other teams are just so ordinary, and can be any flipping show. 

    They’re my favorite of the ones they’ve shown this year.  I don’t bother with watching when any of the other teams are on. The house they worked on for today’s show was such a disaster to start with - I liked how it turned out.  With this group since they don’t have an on camera realtor there’s no scenes with an open house.  I found I prefer the extra time being spent on the actual renovation and or reveal.  At the end who cares if they report an actual sale or not.

  16. I first saw Beetlejuice when it first came out on rental years ago and loved it.  I couldn’t get enough of it so I bought a copy on VHS when it was available.  I still have it.  (Yes, I’m old 😊).  Anyway, whenever I mentioned the movie to anyone back then I always got a negative reaction that I have never understood.  It has a quirky humor that I enjoy.    I never saw the cartoon but I’m wondering why it’s taken so long for a sequel to be released.

    Is Heather the crazy one who threw her partners' stuff in the river when she tapped?  I would watch just to see Bulent chew her up and spit her out. 

    She started with 2 partners, one was a muscle bound man who she got along with right away but he tapped a few days in.  IIRC she begged him to stay so we wouldn’t be stuck with the other man who she saw as inferior.  She wasn’t that pleasant to watch the rest of the time.  I’m rooting for her to be partnered with Bulent.
