  1. Remember the good old days of this season when we didn't have to endure the princess of petulance? Damn, I miss those days. I am so over Liz and her mommy issues, Red has been more of a father to her than her "mother" was. Hell, he could be my wanna-be-daddy any day! If I don't get some solid answers next episode, I'm flipping tables. This is crazy, why am I even doing this to myself? Sigh. Oh yes, James Spader. You, devil, you.
  2. Seriously? That's their excuse in all of this? The Me Too Movement? Because Melendez was Brown's supervisor? Please tell me I misunderstood this, and this is not the case because that's SO ludicrous. So just because something that is looked down upon, illegal, immoral etc. then it shouldn't be written about? Are we really that fucking sensitive? Impressionable? Offended? Murder isn't acceptable, yet we see it all over our screen. Racism isn't acceptable by any stretch of the means, yet we see it on our screens as a part of shows and movies all the time. I could go on but you get what I am saying here. Bottom line, saying they had to kill of a character because of the Me Too movement is a big fat cop-out. Not to mention there were several other avenues they could have taken had they found it so damn inappropriate and offensive. I find bitches offensive, yet Leah is still alive. *shrugs*
  3. It was certainly a series finale as far as I'm concerned. One of the best written budding romances I've seen grace my screen was obliterated. Not only that but the most interesting dynamic and stellar character development. Killing off Melendez was FUCKED UP. I feel like throwin shit. I was not watching the show because of Shaun's pussy whipped ass. Done done and DONE is RIGHT. Ps- I literally just finished watching so I am a little bitter. When cooler heads prevail I'll contribute in an eloquent manner. For now, I'm going to be mad as hell. 🙂
  4. Joanie and her family live in Texas . So yes, quite far.
  5. For those of you who have said it feels like a whole new show. I completely agree. I felt like I was watching sci-fi but I will say, this is the part that interests me most, I am bummed we only get 5 minutes per episode. But it seems to be moving fast, and definitely in the direction that some had speculated (her finding out the truth about her mother). So just so I have this right, it seems there are some serious issues with the coastlines in the future? If anyone is educated on the matter and terminology I happily accept a little learnin'. Flooding was mentioned several times, and it appears that resources are depleted. Joanie seemed to throw shade at her boss for having a baby of her own instead of adopting the kids that are already available and sucking up oxygen. PS- I love all of the futuristic ideas, even as silly as they are, I find it interesting, the Naughty Potty had me LOLing. One more thing on this episode- We all know this is the last season, that being said, why would we now need Janelle's POV? It just seems too little too late and instead of "wrapping" things up, they're throwing more "new" material at us. Plus I can't seem to take the ex-husband seriously, I still see him as the campy detective from Grimm.
  6. I feel like the truth lies somewhere in the middle when they show the 2 perspectives and the POV of the respective character is greatly exaggerated. I'm sure he washed a dish, picked up a small amount but he certainly didnt slave for hours on end for no reason expect to be "helpful". Noah has never been shown to be that selfless. My guess is, he sees Vic dying as an opportunity to slide right in and win her back. That would make sense.
  7. Anna Paquins debut, and onscreen for all of what? 5 minutes?....and 4 1/2 of them featured her in the nude. Shocker. I've probably seen that girls tits more than Vampire Bill.
  8. No matter how much they choose to fuck with us, Red (James Spader's Red) is her father, as we've all suspected from episode 1. Because come on, no one does all of this for some grade school crush and their kid. Right?!?!?! At least make it make sense beyond the pact of a couple of kindergarteners. That would be the most anticlimactic shit ending I could think of.
  9. Thank you for this. I wondered the same thing. Apparantly all the good doc did was alter his vocal chords and give him a snazzy hat. Oi.
  10. So wait, Lizzie confessed that it was her who turned him in? Did I miss something? Or did she do it all cryptic like everything else in this show? Join the club. At least Ilya looked just like a young James Spader, that made it easier to follow along. ;)
  11. So many things to say. I'll keep them brief and to the point Wendy being a bad ass cracking the proverbial wipe with the "we are going to have a seminar" but cant admit she literally cracks a whip on her husbands ass? Come on. Its 2019 and the Wendy I know has no shame, as there is NOTHING to be ashamed of. Yes her sex life was put on blast but bitch puleeeeez you're married to a politician. What did you expect?! Dont act all shocked and awed just OWN IT. Damn how I wish she would have accepted Tay-Tay's invitation but I get why she didnt. I know Wendy may have been tiring of the S&M but she wasnt being the excellent direct communicator that she was in the beginning of the series. Her lame attempts at giving Chuck a hint are futile, I love Wendy, but I am barely seeing Wendy I know and love this season. Since when does she run out of a room crying? For ANY reason?? Did we ACTUALLY see Wags having a purpose or some kind of knowledge in the industry? Shocker! Loving the Taylor and Daddy thing. It's as if this is the shows way of addressing the elephant in the room and I find it refreshing. Can I ask a legit question....when Taylor refers to themself why do they say "I" instead of "we". Just polishing up on my PC, wanting to be informed! Lastly, riddle me this Batman.....why is Damian Lewis such a panty dropper? Not my typical type for sure and it's not the Bobby bad-ass millionaire persona this goes back to Homeland (aka Crazy Carrie-Pants as the hubby and I dubbed it because we could never remember the name). He was especially hot this epi so I thought I'd throw it out there. Loved the Russians reference to Axe Body Spray. But dont even get me started on how quickly and neatly they tied a bow on that one. The end. Wow. That was so not as brief as I had intended. 🙂 I think he wanted her to punish him. She has been hiding out. Plus he always wants to please Daddy. I am not shocked at all.
  12. Um...soooooo....where they goin? And really? "weigh station"? Isn't that like......for trucks? Color me naive but I'm hella confused. What IS HAPPENING? lol Maybe his ears popped. Hehehe
  13. I hope this reignites the bad-ass in Carol. I'm pretty much done with this domesticated watered down version. It is FAR worse than the cookie baking vest wearing version of OG Alexandria, because at least we all knew that was a facade. Someone hand her some clippers and a knife and let her show Alpha who is really top dog.
  14. I didn't particular have any feels for Tara one way or another but as a character who has been on the show for so long we just sent her out bulk style with the likes of Brett Butler and The Prince of Petulance? With no back story no less? I am sorry I am not counting that piss poor rendition Siddiq gave us. Something is not right there. What happened with the king? Surely we are going to get more details???....., if not then I am taking my ball and going home. Are we to believe that this was all because they "stole" Alpha's daughter so as retaliation she decided to take out a bunch of randos along with the entire Scooby gang? Geesh. That reminds me of when I was younger and I would playfully punch my brother in the arm and his (over)reaction would be to dislocate mine.
  15. I fucking adore this show. Maybe it's the pre-teen TNG vibes from years ago stirring up a certain familiarity and warmth, but I cannot get enough. Really, to the point I'm peeved I have to wait 3 weeks for the next one! If I wasnt so tired I would elaborate on why I loved this epi but all of you fine folks have done a stellar job so it saved me some typing. One thing I will say- Dont shoot, but it was a relief that Isaac was offscreen. I was overloaded a bit. I know it takes a special kind of person to love and appreciate every episode, I am certainly that person. I am over critical and annoyed with a lot of shows, roller coaster ups and downs. But Orville never disappoints me and I am so thrilled this series ended up back on our screens. Gonna chew on this episode a bit and chime in tomorrow when my gas tank is a bit fuller.
  16. Michael Graziadei plays an excellent bad guy and but these one offs on primetime shows are not enough for me. I wish he would land somewhere permanently! Here is the thing, I am ready and willing to suspend a certain amount of disbelief when it comes to the 911 call portion of the show, but I am struggling with this kidnapping SL. Why would a middle aged man decide to kidnap a boy every 6 years? Did they give us some kind of explanation and I missed it? I would like some kind of motivating factor. It just seemed so random. I also struggled with where I've seen the older boy before, but I gave up on that one, if anyone knows feel free to share, though! :)
  17. This. Said basically the same thing. But hey. You have to love their over the top rescues and scenarios. And playing "Touch of Gray" during the release? Oh my lawdy, just cheesy goodness. I am in love with this show.
  18. Seems I'm in the minority, but I quite like Wags. This is based on entertainment value, which is a high priority for me when watching television. His obnoxious humor keeps things interesting. I am however in agreement with the senses that Wendy seems "off" this season. I used to live for her shining moments and her undeniable unwavering character. I know it is only the first epi but something is amiss. Thoughts? Just didnt have good writing for the first episode is my hope.
  19. Didnt you hear? She is in the CIA. Sorry. Couldn't help it. Too easy. I know. Someone mentioned she took little hershel junior on a walkabout. As a side note- I have dug my heels in the sand, I refuse to watch LC's new show because of the advertising overload. Its like I've already watched the whole series. Not to mention LC's inability to pull of an American accent is extremely distracting. I have enough of that in TWD.
  20. The writing alluded to her being killed but that seems like...kind of a big deal just to end it like that, not such a neat little bow. Like you said, surely she would have people looking for her and Carl would be the first one to be questioned as the spouse. I'm hoping it comes back around somehow. They are going to have to find something interesting to do to make another season work.
  21. Yes, a stand alone epi for Daryl & Dog! The dialogue would have been enlightening and intelligent for once in a great while. Where do I sign up?
  22. She was very vague, I think all of those kids were kidnapped and recruited into her army, just as she planned to do with the kids of Alexandria. She just said the adults couldn't cope but I don't think there ever were adults with her. My theory. Could be wrong.
  23. I don't usually care for kids on shows but Judith is hella entertaining. Danai's acting and an appearance from Rutina Wesley was the only thing that carried this show. I hated the back and forth, mostly because my husband complained about it the whole damn episode. All in all the whole concept was TRASH. I would have rather watched an entire episode about how Daryl obtained Dog. I want to see Negan more, seeing him for a collaborative 2 minutes per episode is not cutting it. He is absolute gold. Yah...I agree....."she won't share" doesn't seem like a solid reason, even if it was, surely they would have been able to work it out. Hope an explanation is out there, because this is just sloppy.
  24. I know I am late to the party but I have to say that ER and WHM's final scene was fan-fucking-tastic! Absolute tear jerker and very well done. Her departure overall was just right, it wasn't over the top and campy and I didn't need to know where she was going to make it or break it for me. She said somewhere close to the equator and the plane had little palm tree logos on the seats, that was good enough for me. I have 2 questions if anyone is still around. 1) I don't follow the actors, obviously it was apparent Fiona was leaving because it was advertised, but is Ian no longer a part of the show? Did he just come back for the farewell epi? 2) Did we ever get closure on Carl's crazy girlfriend? The one living in the tent with a bullhorn? I really don't think we know for sure, so I wonder if it is just sloppy writing or if it will come back eventually.
