When Jane was on the phone with her dad he said, of her writing, "you are always looking for the personal angle" and I couldn't stop laughing. The show writers have to be trolling at this point.

I was really hoping Sutton or Kat might suggest that if she was going to kiss another man to fix her relationship perhaps there was a larger problem. Or that Pinstripe might tell her he realized the problem with them was that she's the most irritating person on the planet. Alas. I guess the breakup will have to wait for when Jane really needs a story idea.

Also I'm sure they'd be able to relive the experience with everyone else reading the 12 part series on the Jane's Breasts vertical (not to be confused with the Jane's Ovaries, Jane's Uterus, Jane's Back Acne, Jane's Weird Toenail verticals that are soon to take over Scarlet).

I agree with so much of what you said but want to pull this out in particular. Wolfgang and Rajan go through a lot together in the short period of time they have. They bond quickly. Who know what might happen long term with the three of them but love for Kala, mutual respect and affection make it totally believable to me that Rajan would be willing to at least explore it. And I think in some ways this is the real beauty of the show. That Rajan and the other non-cluster characters can, through the existence of sensates, be more like our sensates - opening their hearts and minds to things they never thought possible. To me, this is what the show challenges its viewers to do as well.

Aaah! Thank you for including thar screenshot. I'm laughing at that scene all over again and might need to do a rewatch. I'll always treasure and miss this show.

Yes, Alice making such a messy Alice move really sold me on the show, honestly. And naming the bar Dana's was sweet. Maybe they can name one of the dumpsters out back after Jenny.

This is the very first time I'm hearing of this but the trailer looks interesting.

It's definitely a different approach. We saw Beck's disaster of a life from the very beginning but Love we don't get dropped right in, so she's harder to know. I actually enjoy the contrast and that Love is so proactive and forward, even as it makes me slightly suspicious of her.

My question exactly. Something is way off about her story.

I agree. I didn't especially like Jensen joking about it, but I think he deserves some slack because he had nothing to do with what happened and was in a rough spot in terms of addressing it. It's funny because my BvJ opinions were always about the characters but this incident has made me rethink some things offscreen.

I agree. I don't see anything charming about joking about being a violent drunk.

They have to treat his that way, Dean is mean and stupid, remember? It's smart, sensitive Sam's job to try and teach him how to think and feel correctly. 😡

I'm not watching at all right now but please, someone tell me so I can see that.

This is so adorable.

I think the level of castigation towards a grown man who attacked two of his employees and put his hands on a cop should be much worse, than it actually is, personally. The fact that he didn't manage to seriously injure anyone is good and will certainly help keep him from getting a serious sentence but it's horrifying behavior in my book. I really hope the men he hit do press charges (though I can understand if they drop it - there will be a lot of pressure). Jared needs real consequences for his selfish and reckless behavior so next time doesn't get worse.

I just loved it. I've been enjoying this season overall because it just hits my bonkers nonsense spot perfectly, and this was just so much fun to me. I was really hoping for more Jingles v. Ramirez (far superior to Freddy v Jason in my book) and watching the whole gang - alive and otherwise - prepare to reassemble back at camp for a concert/bloodbath? Can't wait.

I don't recall Katie being involved in anything approaching human trafficking. Flo knowingly signed forged documents. She posed as the birth mother of a child without finding out where it came from. She took $50k. And she spent half a year covering up her crimes. Lying to her new found family who embraced her while she was stabbing them all in the back. Every single person in LA who wasn't part of the conspiracy to cover up what Flo and Wayne Shady did has every right to go over there and read her the riot act for it.

Exactly. I mean I watch this show, obviously realism isn't that important to me. But some vague nod to consistency would be appreciated. It's the laziness that bothers me. There are a million ways they could have made Thomas fixate on Hope. A knock to the head turns to insta-love - runs in the family. They could have had an actual letter from Caroline saying nice things about Hope that put the idea in his head. Or seeing her once with Douglas. Hell, they could call back to when KM and LG used to joke about not being able to tell which one of them was in a shot. Almost anything would be better than this braindead retcon of a love that never even got going.

Yes, somehow he's mad from grief after losing the woman he was just co-parenting with while still completely in love with Hope (who he was never in love with) for years.

I would 1000x prefer Sharon and Mark to Sharon and Adam.

TK is always at his best with DD. The two of them are magic together - amazing chemistry. It doesn't have to be romantic (not that I would be opposed if it went that way) but the show should really lean into this and put them in a lot more scenes with each other.

No we did get an update that they found him. He's in custody in the UK.

Just so you know, you don't get to define someone else's race. Nathalie has talked repeatedly about her white and black heritage. Caribbean is not a race and being Latina (I have never heard her refer to herself as this) does not preclude being black. She's talked about how her natural hair is connected her her black heritage. Also, in reference to someone wanting her to play Disney Princess Tiana, she said "“Nah, that part has to go to an even more melanated sister” so she's Black AF.
