I feel like Jed and Jer developed their own identities, but perhaps only because they were part of the Howler collective and their parents didn't have the time, energy, or desire to push the "twin" identity. I mean, in a way all the Duggar children were forced into having no identity beyond the family (matching clothes, a love of pickles, the ability to spout smug facts about why they were different and superior to everyone else), but beyond that indoctrination they were kind of left to raise themselves. Jeremiah always came across as kind of quiet and more thoughtful (as in, taking the time to actually think before saying something) than the average Howler, and I think he was the one who liked chess and drawing?

I thought Helen said something about Tris during one of her conversations with Mrs. Hall? Maybe I misheard. For the whole episode I was thinking the not-dead-cat's owner looked familiar... had to IMDb it, and was gobsmacked to realize it was Win Thursday (Caroline O'Neill) from Endeavour!

And poem lines don't need to end with any punctuation, if you wouldn't normally put it there in a "regular" sentence.

It was a pleasant enough comfort-watch, but I didn't love it. Maybe it's been too long since I watched the original.

They have two daughters already, Brynley Noelle, born 12/25/22, and Brielle Grace, born in February 2024. Joe and Kendra have 4. Their youngest was born around June 2022, at which point they had 4 kids in 4 years. They show up just enough on various Caldwell and Duggar family posts that it would appear they haven't had any more, and Kendra was not visibly pregnant in a recent video posted by Jinger. Josiah and Lauren have 3, and Lauren looks visibly pregnant in recent videos posted by Jinger and Joy.

They were at the TTH, and something was mentioned about a toddler having the runs.

Brianne and Jill deserved one another, but I admit I feel relieved for Sam.

They are standing in age order, so after Joy are Johannah, Jennifer, and Jordyn.

All the Duggar girls together again (posted by Joy)...

Just finished watching this, and I wondered that as well. She was very single-minded/ obsessive in her investigation, and her people-skills were frequently awkward. But that doesn't explain her sheer stupidity in dealing with two people who she (rightly) suspected of murder! She had the perfect excuse when Elliot caught her lurking outside his car in the previous episode-- "Hey, I lost my phone and tracked it here!"-- but nooo, let's confront him, follow him into the house, and go running upstairs into potential danger. (Side note-- did none of Elliot's neighbors think it was odd that he moved his daughters out of the house, but continued to show up-- presumably quite frequently-- to this residence, rather than selling or renting it out? Especially if this was going on for five years?!? Seems like they lived in an area where people would know each other/ notice.) But that took a backseat to the stupidity of Pip not only agreeing to go see Andie's body with Becca after Becca admitted to killing her, but DRINKING THE TEA BECCA MADE HER AT BECCA'S INSISTANCE!!! Like, how much more obvious could Becca have been??? "Let's go see where I buried my sister, but first, drink up, Pip!" Max Hastings reminded me (in both looks and demeanor) of Dick Casablancas, but Pip was a far cry from Veronica Mars.

The new Richard Osman book? That made me think of the Stewarts and their ilk, too.

Well, clearly not you. And I, personally, would be the same, as I rarely use my phone, and am good at keeping track of things I need (i.e. a list). But judging by how the majority of people are constantly glued to their phones, I would say we're the outliers.

Less likely to misplace your phone than a piece of paper?

Late to the party and just finished this. Realized it had been cancelled after I watched episode one, and I'm glad I still watched anyway. I really enjoyed it, particularly the acting. In reading the threads, I was surprised that others found it slow, as I was engaged the whole time. And while the finale definitely left a lot of threads dangling, I appreciated that we did get forward motion. It felt like the end of a first act (which is clearly what it was meant to be), rather than cheap cliffhangers. I kind of figured that was the point. In Hades, she finally found both a purpose (warn people not to go through the Frame) and someone she had deep feelings for (Canaeus). And then that gets yanked away because of Orpheus and her having to fulfill her prophecy, and she accepts that, but it's a tragedy. I would have liked to see what Riddy ended up doing back on Earth in series 2, now that she had a new purpose. I did think it was impractical of her not to accept Orpheus's ride, though. Great speech on her part, but girl, you're in the middle of nowhere-- you could have given the speech after you got back to civilization!

The final showstopper always counts more than the first 2 challenges. Georgie's showstopper was clearly superior to the other two in both looks and taste (and Christiian's apparently really didn't taste great), and her first two challenges were OK (her issues were far less disastrous than Dylan's), hence the win. I do think it was really close between her and Christiian, though, since he was clearly better on day one.
