  1. In the shallow end of the pool here (fashion): Amanda's coat at the beginning of the ep (which I think we may've seen before): gorgeous. More thoughts later.
  2. Same!, to both comments. Faith & Will solidified their place in my heart with this: She's Gone (I don't think the clip gives the entire performance; apologies!). And is there room on the weird bench? I too prefer the CotW format. I don't mind some thru-arcs for each of the characters, but balanced w/ CotW.
  3. Random thoughts: 1. Please, show, no arch-nemesis for Will. If we don't see Greg Germann/James Ulster (IMDb's spelling) again, I'll be fine. 2. Just wait, Betty & Nico (or Betty & Will, if he's deciding what she wears) are gonna show up in matching outfits. @possibilities, I'm surprised wornonv.net isn't covering this; Amanda & Faith are always wearing fantastic clothes; and, I mean, Will is known for flippin' three-piece suits! 3. Ormewood is just the kind of parent who would make a functioning gun for a kid's science project. The same short-sightedness of his affairs applies here (kind of like what you were saying, @Chaos Theory). 4. I love Faith. Badass indeed, @Snazzy Daisy. 5. Each episode I watch for how/where they're going to place the "WILL TRENT" show title. Really liked seeing it in the security monitors.
  4. Agreed to all. Especially to Will's line about being warm & comfortable (I'll need to re-watch to get his precise dialogue). And having Cricket (RIP, we hardly knew ye!) say right after that: "Hello I'm Cricket, your bomb tech; I'll be disarming your bomb today" made that whole scene fantastic.
  5. Grabbing this long-ago post to note that when POI was at ComiCon -right around when Snowden was in the news (I think)- they bought ad space on some of the hotel keycards: I really want to start a re-watch, but the Caviezel stuff has me staying away
  6. YEP!! Also, I really like Michael Landes and would've enjoyed seeing more of him on this show. Fox had so much more chemistry w/ him than w/ Caves. I've not seen her in much, so I don't know if it's her or if it's the writing.
  7. I need to correct my initial comment that @Primetimer quoted from, above: S26 is available Stateside via BritBox and S25 has self-contained crime-of-the-week stories in its usual two episode format, but the six episodes also have a broader over-arching full-season story. I feel so bad, because there was a relationship I liked for several of the recent seasons which ended off-screen and this led to another relationship where the actors just have zero chemistry.
  8. I'm generally a big-dog lover and not really a fan of chihuahuas. Betty may be winning me over. I mean look at her!!!
  9. Why is this show not on a streaming service? I know it's available on YT (thanks to @Anela, above); I'm just surprised Max or Paramount+ hasn't scooped it up.
  10. Things that TV Insider is hoping for during S03. I'm in agreement on several, including a return of Sterling and a couple other guest stars from the original series. I still want Marina Sirtis on as Sophie's sister (I mean there are so very many Star Trek alum on the show, it makes so much sense to me...). https://www.tvinsider.com/gallery/leverage-redemption-season-3-eliot-sophie-romance-damien-moreau-sterling-hardison-space/#8
  11. Oh, and one of my recent obsessions has been Little Simz. Here's a sampling of her stuff:
  12. I was going to post this in the 'Songs that Make You Cry" thread. Gonna age myself here: I was born and raised in NYC (primary and middle school years). For secondary school, I was sent home to Ireland. Fairytale came out in my last Christmas holiday in Ireland; this was also the first Christmas I didn't get to come back to NYC for the holiday. So, the images from the video (Matt Dillon anyone??!!) and the images conjured up by the song itself over that holiday season had me super homesick. Now, all these years later, it still gets me and I still tear up when I hear it. And yes, with Shane & Kirsty gone it is even more poignant. (I'll add Sinéad too, & Christy Dignam.)
  13. Too many great comments above to quote them all. I also think this s/b a 'one & done' series. No need for another, even if they anthologize it. Agreed that it's good that Lucy left him. It took the entirety of the series for me to like her (it happened when she turned her cheek to Hawk when he tried to kiss her after rushing home to her; though I didn't love her 'it's the woman's job to worry' comment, notwithstanding societal norms at the time). During the basketball scene I for whatever reason thought Jerome was mid-teens, then I recalled he was in college, so likely late-teens, early 20s. I'm a little younger than he would be; during the later 80s and into the early 90s I volunteered with a few NYC/Long Island area HIV/AIDS non-profits. I feel like Jerome would've been one of the clients I'd've connected with. Most of the guys in the show remind me of various clients, but Jerome just sticks out (probably b/c of closeness of ages). Tim's comment about his hospital being the only one that treated patients the way his did also stuck out: I recall people thinking they needed hazmat suits, even into the later 80s (this is well portrayed in The Normal Heart, where Bomer gives another stellar performance). I also recall hearing at the time that Roy Cohn got a square on the quilt and the very varied responses of my friends and fellow-volunteers/clients at that news. I hope Kimberly gets therapy. Sen. McCarthy & Roy Cohn: good riddance, you two can f*ck right off!!!! Glad to have met you Tim, Hawk, Marcus, Frankie, Mary, Jerome, Kimberly, Jackson... and yes, even Lucy (and Sen. Smith & Leo too).
  14. So, the coming attractions ad at the end of last night's episode called this the SEASON finale. Which surprised me; I'd've thought this would be a mini/limited one-and-done series. I do wonder how they make a second season.
