  1. Your correction is right, CeeBeeGee. Though I just felt the need to use Jo's retort from season 8 ("The ratings game"): Tootie Ramsey: "Muffy? Her name is Muffy? What kinda person is named Muffy?" Jo Polniaczek: "Beats me, Tootie!" ;)
  2. well, I'm not particularly captivated by their adult versions either ;)
  3. She was my favorite, too, but that's another reason I hated the finale. Thy made her drop her lawyer career and set her up with that slime misogynist teacher. Plus I didn't find any of those kids charming.
  4. If so, they should make an extra purchase of "Seven Little Indians" for Halloween. xD EDIT: "Tootie!"
  5. No. Although Xena has some some very exceptional skills, which might even have godly origins, I think a demigoddess would be in a total different league.
  6. ;D "Seven little Indians" is the most funniest of funny episodes ever. It's just gold. ... And one more thing: "Tootie!"
  7. "Married with fishsticks" was atrocious. I can handle the weirdness, the problem was that it completely missed the points that made "Overboard" (the movie the ep was inspired from) work: - Before losing her memory, the main female character was a bitch. - The main male character was wronged by the above. - The guy never used the situation to get into the woman's pants. In the Xena "homage": - Even though some would find her annoying (not me), Gab is by definition a gentle soul. - Joxer is deluded. - The Joxer counterpart in the fishsticks world uses Gab's memory loss to sleep push her to sleep with him.. and basically at the end he gets a reward for not being too big a slime. The ep stinks.
  8. Well, I agree the "modern day episodes" weren't spectacular, and the humour often a bit to crude, but I give them extra points for presenting clip show episodes in an original way.
  9. UO: I'm bored by the backstory clips. They worked for a while, but starting season two they feel forced. Maybe I don't need backstory clip for every character, or maybe sometime I don't need 10 minutes of clips when 2 lines of dialogue would convey the same amount of information... "show! don't tell" doesn't mean "bore! don't tell".
  10. I can only think about episodes like "For him the bell tolls" or "The quill is mightier" where Xena leaves for a "fishing trip" at the begin of the ep ant then shows up again at the end. There are also a couple of eps in season 2 where Xena is in Callisto's body... ;P
  11. ^ "I'm an actress... No! I'm a seagull!"
  12. Another ep where I felt the plots came off as being executed a little too simplistically. Pensatucky friendliness with Boo (and Nicky a few eps ago) seemed a bit sudden - I guess I forgot too much from the previous season... Piper deserved that slap / ear-pull from her mother; I wasn't impressed by that Harry meet Sally re-enacting either. ;P Next.
  13. Loved the books' funeral. Alex and Piper's improvisation at the "grocery shop" was a good dialogue, I just found the drama class plot a bit forced. I hope Nicky is not gone for good. Next!
  14. After the deflated premiere, I felt this ep back on track with the OISNB quirky tone. The bug back story was more entertaining than the mother's day one - which I felt was presented too flat. Same goes for the dialogue, that in this ep, contained a good handful of really funny and sharp lines. "Two sadist, one gay" - Btw. Who else thinks that Pornstash's mother (aka Mama-stash) would make a good job at raising the kid, like she would read to him/her a lot of Jules Verne? (reference: the actress played in Back to the Future III) And last but not least, kudos to the actresses, who didn't get paper-scrubs, for showing that women come in all shapes. Next!
  15. Tired start of the season, puffed away all the big momentum of the last season finale, weak dialogue. Onward to the next episode!
  16. You're absolutely right. The rape doesn't imply Sansa was weak nor diminishes her previous accomplishments. Nevertheless the crime does affects the victim, in terms of story arc it's relevant because what happens to characters is defining for their story as it is a work of fiction. It's true, we don't know what will happen in the books, but as the situation was constructed in the show, it is contrived plot-wise (LF marrying her off) and it's lazy and redundant in what the story wants to communicate (Ramsay very bad, now Sansa & co will really really have revenge).
  17. Fine, let's apply whatever fallacious interpretation of moral relativism, or propose that if person-A has willingly agreed to have sex with person-B, person-B has the right not to stop even when they're seriously hurting person-A... Fine, Sansa's wedding night is no big deal in the GoT world. Yet, nobody seems to have any doubt on why Theon is horrified and crying in that scene.
  18. For me the worse was Joey's feet being unnaturally small all of sudden. WTF?
  19. No, but I'm curious about what happened to her Winnebago.
  20. The store was closed in s9,because none of the girls had time to work in it any more. Apparently, they converted it into two rooms for Andy and Pippa: the set was never seen again... or was probably used for the shelter.
  21. ^ The worst was the finale, because it robbed the series of a proper ending. :/
  22. ^ s05e15, the ep was indeed called "Crossing the line".
  23. *cough*UST*cough* "I have this problem... Her name is Blair." - Dear Apple
  24. "Because I'm Batman!" (Reference "How it should have ended" superheroes café) Blair about her and Chuck hooking up in season 4: "[we're] enemies... with benefits"
