Wanda

She doesn’t consider it progress that she went from being loaded in a moving van by 8 firefighters to getting into the front seat of a passenger van with just a little help? Girl, I’m side eyeing you.

Nichelle is just a ball of optimism and helpfulness isn’t she?

She’s made more progress faster than any other bedbound patient by standing within 2 months. Good for her!

Bootylicious is my ear worm for this show. Some people live it.

Stuff goes by quickly when watching, snarking and eye rolling at the same time.

She said all the loading and unloading got to her (or words to that effect).

And St Jude’s hospital. It’s like they’re trying to make us all feel guilty for watching this show.

They can set up cameras in the cars. Like go pros.

Hospital personnel have always done it. They are used to Dr Nows’ patients. ok she’s taken 3 days so they must have had EMTs in every town unload her at the hotels

If it takes 6 strong men to move you to your van, perhaps you might need professional medical transportation?

Whenever they say “I don’t know what I’ll do if Dr Now turns me down”, I think two things; girl, you’re being filmed, you’ve always been accepted and you know it. And , DIET! Why do you need a Dr to tell you to stop eating? And I’ll reserve my gasoline soaked drawers now please.

Janine showed us all the “big girl” tricks.

Maybe the roommate is more than a roommate?

There’s more to these people ending up this way than just sad childhoods. I watch this show and others like intervention and think, I can match stories with a lot of them but somehow I managed to become a productive person of normal weight. And then I think some of those big breakfast look really good and I want to smack myself upside the head. Now I want ribs dang it

I was up and stumbling around the house, arm in a sling, zonked on oxycodone the second I could because staying in bed is a huge fear of mine. Just can’t understand a mentality that encourages a person to give up or even want to hang out in bed.

I broke my arm very badly getting kicked by a horse this summer. Had surgery 3 weeks ago. Both when it happened and after surgery I was terrified when I was so miserable I was stuck in the bed. Told my husband I might end up in Houston

How do you get stuck in a bed where the fire department has to get you out? And then you get right back in it?

Great to have something better than cable news to occupy the mind

I’m almost positive that the show has told us Howard’s father died. That’s when the brother showed up. A lawyer with the estate mentioned he had a brother in Pasadena and the younger wolowitz looked him up.

Watching this, why aren’t there arrests of the perpetrators?

I can’t help wondering if it’s a conscious choice to be blunter this go round with the political aspect because, let’s face it, everything about this administration IS blunter than those the writers faced during the shows original run.

Hate watching should give enjoyment lol. There’s not a sense of enjoyment in posts complaining about the quality of Murphy Brown, or how politically whiny it is. My idea of hate watching is season 9 of HIMYM, or ANTM on VH1. Things you watch just for the ability to come here and join in with the forum discussions. Shows that I enjoy having on in the background, not anything that would make me question why a particular show exists.

I’m always curious why people will watch shows they seem to hate so much. Just an observation. Not shows where there’s there is an off episode you loathe (Roseambo being one of my can’t rewatch eps), but I read the forums for about 10 different shows and there are always people who couch their disappointment with a specific episode by critiquing the lack of quality within the entire production. Especially with a reboot like MURPHY BROWN. Anyone who didn’t understand what they were getting into, especially when the show creator and pretty much the entire original cast all back, should have figured it out before the first episode ended. And simple googling would have explained that this was always a show that wove it’s plots around topical issues. In its initial syndicated runs that was considered a real problem, that the jokes would keep this classic show from being timeless. Not commenting on any individual poster as I’ve seen it in multiple forums. Just curious as this show, and Will & Grace (for another example) are what they’ve always been.

Was anyone else afraid Jim was going to have a heart attack at the dais after his speech?

If anyone also watches Big Bang theory, I think ‘Mindy St Clair’ guested as a bonkers scientist. Anyone else notice and think so? The voice is what caught my attention.
