  1. Here's the really offbeat thing that I liked about the episode. When they showed Angie swimming, it was actually realistic. Usually it's either a stunt double who's a great swimmer but clearly isn't the actor/actress. Or it really is the actor/actress, and they try to make it look like they're a really good swimmer (by trying to have them go fast, or do something that looks complicated), but they're not really that good. In this case, Angie was just doing leisurely backstroke, in a realistic way, as just a normal person swimming in a pool would. Bravo!
  2. They sure made it look like they were on the same day, but I can't actually believe they would do that. Genius!
  3. In addition to his re-appearance since Desperate Housewives, we had a re-appearance of Jennifer Westfeldt (the councilman's wife) from Younger, where she was the wife-becoming-ex-wife of Charles. I figured out that for me, the difficulty comes at the end of her sentences. Because of her low, whispery-type of voice, and people naturally dropping a bit at the end of sentences, it combines to make some of her words hard to understand. It would be great if they would actually continue the interactions while the pastor is in prison. I could see Will dictating long diatribes to him, and either them letting the pastor exchange tape recordings with Will, or Will using some Google/AI-assisted product to transcribe his recordings to text. And has someone to be his family, besides his lunatic possible father. I couldn't make sense of why Will was wanting her to stop moaning so loudly. The wife knew she was downstairs, so moaning isn't giving away any location information. If anything, it was helpful, because it masked any sounds that Faith would have made walking around. It was stunning that he recited all those accomplishments that he was so proud of, and then didn't connect that what he needs to do to really make a difference in his marriage, goes beyond just doing deeds like that. Oooh, I learned a new word today!
  4. Finally, someone with what sounded like a legit southern accent! It was the switchboard operator, or whatever you call that woman who was handling the calls from the various GBI personnel. I don't know if it was her real accent or not, or even if it was specifically "Georgia" or not, but it was definitely southern, and at this point, I'll take it!
  5. First, let me say that I really like this show. However, there were some real head-scratchers to me... Yes! And I couldn't figure out what the point of having her do that was, because she's a professional, and regardless of how smitten she was with Will, I just don't think she would have done that. It makes her look less competent at her job. Or was it so that Will would see it, and feel even worse than he already does?! Yep, and it has to stop. It adds absolutely nothing to the show, and detracts from it. And I can't figure out why they're doing it. I don't think they've said he's a native Georgian, and none of the other characters have some type of Georgia accent, so why on earth does Will need one? I actually had a lot of problems with that scene. From what we've seen about Ormewood, who went to the lengths to put a tracking device on his wife's car, and who had heard talk about how much time his wife spends over at that guy's house, he would never have been that quickly dissuaded of his suspicions about her cheating, just because he solved the mystery of the hour of air conditioning. Yes he was relieved that one aspect of his concerns proved mistaken, but he is a detective and knew that his spidey sense about the other aspects was still outstanding, so I don't think he would have had that relieved and sheepish aspect to his explanation. And I don't for a second believe he would have told her about his thought process right there in the middle of the police station, nor do I believe that she would have immediately caved, and confessed right there on the spot. I really liked the character of Cricket and would have enjoyed seeing what could develop between them, but in spite of the good vibe each character had separately and how they played off one another sequentially, I didn't see any actual chemistry together.
  6. I think that women of different backgrounds who go far, are the ones who continue to get the backlash. I definitely think it was a producer's idea. Kelsey looked like she was really struggling to even come up with words to say (and not because she was struggling with the emotions, but simply because she just didn't have enough words to fill up the time). But I think it was more than just for the cheap drama...I also think it was intentionally to f*ck with Joey, and that is not OK. I continue to wish, however futilely, that TPTB would understand that those type of scenes are so much more meaningful to us as fans, than the never-ending stupid contrived drama. We actually get to see people's personalities, which in turn makes us more invested in the outcome. I am glad someone else noticed this! He looks sooo much better when he is in his better colors...someone needs to give him a Color Me Beautiful analysis, stat!
  7. Seriously, what is wrong with that fiancee, that she is trying to swat down all the flies rather than just stop being with the sh*t?
  8. Nev is such a hype man. When they were all sitting in the living room, and Nev said something like, "You two seem to be getting along very well", it had to have been clear to him that there was actually nothing between them. And then when they were leaving, the girl actually said, "We have chemistry"...only if by "chemistry" you mean "extreme awkwardness" and "seem like distant relatives"!
  9. I did not care for the Crimes of Fashion: Killer Clutch mystery. It was very, very difficult to understand what the people who spoke with French accents were saying, especially when they were yelling. I didn't particularly care for the lead character. Some of the writing felt very stilted. And that owner guy was far sexier than the detective!
  10. When I saw his DGAF expression as she declared her love, I thought "Wait. He must be masking his reaction, cause there's no way they'd telegraph the ending." But sure enough, that's exactly what they did. I guess it's nice to see that Joey is no actor when it comes to feigning happiness.
  11. So are we thinking that they will try to make Webb be her next relationship?
  12. I forgot there was a forum dedicated to Cold Justice! Yes, the new season has started. I posted this over in the True Crime forum, but will post again here as well. Regarding the first episode of the season...I don't think they had near enough evidence to bring the case to court. I think the guy is guilty as sin, and there was a smattering of circumstantial evidence (like the credit cards), but everything else was basically motive and character. When they gave the de-brief to the niece (?) at the end, they were using a lot of gobbledy-gook say-nothing words, because I think they were told they need to do a lot more in order to even be able to get an arrest.
  13. Quoting myself because I watched the second episode of this season's Cold Justice, and again I don't think there's enough evidence. They arrested the guy, which is farther than the last episode got, but I seriously doubt it will go to trial. There's just not enough evidence of actual murder, circumstantial or otherwise. Again, he's almost assuredly guilty, and there's plenty to show anger issues and problems in the relationship, and opportunity, but not one thing related to the actual act of murder.
  14. It was funny when even Trevor said (to Chelsea I think) that Laura was his number 2 but she seems mean. Chelsea's dress looked matronly AF, and Amy's dress was wearing her rather than the other way around. Additionally, the spaghetti strap seersucker top she was wearing with Jimmy just made her boobs look saggy and made her look big. When Chelsea told Jimmy that as soon as he saw Jessica's picture, he started behaving differently, she was completely dismissing that once she knew Jimmy saw Jessica's picture, then she started behaving differently. Also, let's not discount Jimmy's insecurity. Early on, maybe when the couples were all on vacation, he said to the other guys that his relationship was the strongest of all of them, when clearly already it had shown signs of problems. Then at the party, when Chelsea said something about "there's the strongest couple", referring to Amy and Johnny, Jimmy basically imploded. He drilled her mercilessly about how could she say that, and forced her to retreat into an "I was kidding thing", but even that wasn't enough, and she ended up saying something like, "I would never just say something like that seriously", even though she absolutely had said it seriously. I think Jimmy prides himself on his nice-guy persona, but I think he is a manipulative sh*t. When he was having the fight with Chelsea about going out for the buddy's party, at one point he tried to be all reassuring and said to her something about how if she's uncomfortable with his going out like that, then she just needs to ask him to pull back. So she did ask, and he said he wouldn't. F*ck you, Jimmy.
