Candice’s models looked like they couldn’t walk in several of her outfits. She put them in really high platforms. Why? When the clothes are already restrictive you may want to go for easier footwear. In each collection there were some good pieces but more dogs. Ashley’s last dress was horrible. She made her model look enormous. Edmond’s collection was a mish mash. Did he add all of the “sexy” designs based on his critique? Because many of them looked very been there, done that. The white toilet paper dress was horrible. But there were some beautiful pieces. His more dramatic pieces were beautifully done. Kelly’s collection also had a few great looks and a lot of WTF. She really did a great job of someone making her model’s asses look both flat and flabby. I do have friends who would wear variations of Ashley’s outfits. Based on fashion sizing, they are plus sized. They are also confident, beautiful women who are not ashamed of their bodies. Using the argument as to whether or not Ashley would wear those designs is useless. She did wear a lace outfit to match her collection. She is much larger than the fashion idea of plus size, so her style choices would be different. However, she has shown all season that she does dress more boldly than many very large women. Even showing her upper arms is considered radical to some. The more they showed me of PR Crotchfruit, the more they confirmed I will not watch it.

They seem to be showing more decayed walkers over time. So you can distinguish recent converts from early walkers. This universe does not seem to allow for the idea of walkers rotting on normal timelines or decaying to a point of not being a threat. In the zombie apocalypse you'll need a valid government ID, credit cards, an ATM card and your health insurance card.

Okay, five minutes in and I was yelling “Shut up, April!” She is back to being insufferable. I am so glad to hear she was “the machine” when she was overseas. She is insufferable when she’s in Seattle. I hated the child actor for the hands story. While I should have cared, I would have been happy to not have seen him again after the surgery. Just me? I am already tired of the new intern storyline. And would somebody fix her blush. Is that supposed to be more evidence of her incompetence? She covers half of her face with ugly blush. Oops, I did it again. Seriously? Why, show, why? I may just be in a mood. Hopefully there are some kids on my lawn that I can yell at.

Carisi absolutely killed it last night. I like this character more and more. (I am also very happy to be free of Amaro. I hated both the character and the actor.) I found the Duggaresque family quite on point, covering up their son's crimes, considering their son more important than their daughters, the weird voice for the mother. Of course, the very fact that the parents seemed to sincerely care about their children separated them from the real Duggars. I cannot imagine Michelle running to her child's side if she had passed out. Pervy pastor seemed pretty obvious. Whenever they would say pastor I would think of Real Housewives of the OC in which Tamra was recently baptized. She kept pronouncing pastor as pasture. So he's a pervy pasture.

Thank you for reminding me of Jerry Lewis in a fugue state. It's gold, Jerry, gold! The key difference between the Duggars and the Law & Order SVU episode ripped from their headlines, the parents seemed to actually care about and like their children. So while they may have been a ultra conservative fundamentalist Christian TV family with 13 kids, they were nothing like the Duggars. Can anyone imagine Michelle taking care of her children? I didn't think so. They did have an oldest son who had molested some girls and a police officer who leaked his closed juvenile records to our crack team of SVU detectives.

I love this so much, like the scene on Airplane when everyone lines up to slap the hysterical woman.

I know I’m a bit behind, but I just posted on FB about my need for a shower and my inability to get myself in one. I have a cold and I am so exhausted and dizzy I really need someone to hold me up and help me bathe. Of course, I would insist on blindfolding them for both of our sakes. There is a tub in the upper unit but we are still working on the remodel. So I’m going to have to suck it up and get in the shower before I become too disgusting to be near myself. When I was young there was a local theater that would show kids movies all day on Saturday. My mother would send the four of us off as a way of getting rid of us for the day. It was super cheap. One time we were supposed to see Snow White. The film broke so they showed one of their nighttime features, Piranha. It starts with a woman swimming then being torn apart by piranha. I started screaming and would not stop. My sister picked me up and carried me out. My mother (psycho that she is) found it funny. My father went down to the theater and had quite the talk with them. He also let the other neighborhood parents know what happened in case their kids were at the show and came back traumatized. When Tom Hanks was being interviewed about Turner and Hootch which had not done well in theaters, he said He was right. I love you so much for this. I truly hate that movie. I was on a date who decided I was a cold-hearted and horrible person because I hated the movie so much, I actually started to fall asleep. My date had to nudge me to wake me up because I had started to snore. The last movie I cried at was Milk during the shooting scene. It brought back all the emotion of that terrible time. The newspapers had done step by step diagrams of how Dan White had gone through City Hall killing people. The movie matched it exactly. It's brutal because it's real.

I almost felt like Jason didn't understand that adding the sound to the crash would make it seem more dramatic. At the same time, I agree with you. If the crash had been worse, the feel of the following parts of the movie would have been way off. In looking back on the movie it had the same problem so many RomComs have - why would these two people get married? They are both attractive. She is from a moneyed family. Beyond that, he acts like her father, with whom she has a poor relationship. He talks down to her and treats her like a child. She is an accomplished person who would probably be able to attract many potential suitors. They may want to pretend that this behavior is only appearing now. However, it was evident before the crash so it had to have been on-going. So why does she need the one daddy picked out? After the big fallout, it still doesn't make any sense as to why she would marry this guy. They now know he's a bit of a grifter who has lied to her and her family throughout their relationship. She is in the public eye, so his background may well be scrutinized. His brother is a disaster waiting to happen. There would be less fallout from calling off the wedding than from choosing to associate with these brothers. Adding to the characters acting in nonsensical manners, why would car pooping, hooker hiring brother chose to try to disrupt the wedding? He made an appearance and was offered a substantial sum to leave. If his brother marries into money, the trough is much deeper for the future. He should have cut and run, thereby guaranteeing the long con. The greatest acting, directing, cinematography in the world could not salvage this poor of a script.

Emirates Air has a 16.5 hour flight from San Francisco to Dubai. It is the longest direct flight out of SFO. However, I still think you shower before you get on the plane. And I personally like that first shower when I've checked into the hotel. Because showering and still being on a plane, no matter how luxurious it supposedly is, would still make me feel grimy. With that said, I'm pretty damn sure Jennifer Aniston would not be roaming around a plane in her robe with her ever so precious loofah on a stick.

Finally watched. So much crying and not a wet eye in the house.

The thing that is still bothering me is Morgan was all about clearing an area in his crazypants, PTSD fugue state mode. But he killed the possible father and son and did not kill their brains. So the area was not “clear.” The area was cleared except for two new walkers he created. He does belong with CDB, making stupid decisions and ruining lives as he goes.

The funniest moment of the night for me was Blake explaining how diverse his team is as they panned to his group looking like the whitest white people ever. Aren't four out of five of them young too? He is really pushing the diversity envelope.

I didn't watch the episode, but I cannot imagine anyone, unless they are a famewhore looking for drama, deciding to stiop for greasy fried fish to eat on the way to their wedding, especially while in their wedding dress. I hope she ate with her fingers to ensure the smell of nasty fish would be all over her at the altar. Ah, Vito, you got quite the winner!

I consider Alison a person who does not know how to express affection or to ask for care without it being sexual. She may only want someone to listen to her or spend time with her, but her only sense of self-worth seems to be as a sexual being. So, she is hurting badly and she goes home. She cannot simply ask Cole to talk to her as a friend or to hold her because she is hurting so badly. Instead she agrees to sex with him. While we know she spent a good amount of time saying “no” to Oscar, even though she eventually had sex with him, that was a situation that would have easily been exposed and Oscar is about as unappealing as a person can be. And of course we are supposed to believe she and Noah have the greatest couple chemistry ever so she could not resist him.

Perhaps they were laughing at the idea that Jason thought this was funny? And brilliant?

I bought a ton of candy because we usually have quite a few trick-or-treaters. I live in the San Francisco and there are quite a few children in our neighborhood. Also, I live on a small street tucked between two major shopping streets. Many of the stores hand out candy to children in costumes. Usually the really little ones go to the stores while it is still light out. When it gets dark, people will actually help people cross the streets safely since it can get crowded and the kids are too tiny to see. With all that said, I didn’t hand out any candy. I expected people to start showing up around 5:30 so I had the big bowl piled high with candy. I had most of my costume ready to go so I could open the door without flashing anyone. And no one came to the door. I left for my party just before 7. As I was leaving I saw several groups of kids on our street, but I missed them all. I saw so many kids when I was driving through the neighborhood and some great costumes. After my friend’s party I went to a local club. I’ve got to say, there were some really fun costumes. There was a young man taking a shower; that is, he had a shower going up his back so the showerhead was over his head and he had a shower curtain on a square rod that surrounded him. We often say Halloween is San Francisco’s big holiday. While not all areas still have major trick-or-treating, the adults really enjoy the day.

I agree it's up to him to control his own reaction. He's not a 14 year old with insta-erections. She was massaging just above his knee, not his groin. He did mention that Yvonne had read him parts of Noah's book in bed. I think the implication was she had read the sex scenes. By his sharing that and then drawing Alison's eyes toward his erection, he was looking for a reaction from her and maybe hoping for a happy ending.

I didn’t laugh once. Not once. Not even a moment when I felt slightly amused by the plot. Wow. That was bad. There were some decent moments in the performances but I find myself wondering if those were when the actors went off script. There was no chemistry between Fiona and William so there was no reason to care if they married or not. I did find myself wondering what they added that was supposed to create the great change in Fiona so that she would become a heartless, mercenary person and go through with the wedding. It was just a bad script with flat, nonsensical characters. I did see three POC at the wedding. I almost wondered if the flashes to them were pushed in the editing since this had been a storyline on PG. The movie is poorly structured, seems to have nothing new to say and shows a terrible vision of marriage and of women. So there it is, Jason Mann’s vision. Cheers to him!

"I learned it from watching you!" Now let me cook up my brain on drugs with bacon and toast.

I enjoyed watching Ben try to slide away from the steaming pile of crap I suspect the final product is. Jason was an exhausting, petulant , entitled jackass from beginning to end. And yeah, watching him hug people creeped me out. Then again, the thought of touching him creeps me out.

I am right there with you on this. This was particularly noticeable with Alison tonight. She was doing a Cletus the slack-jawed yokel impression.

While it was very well acted (although I do sometimes find Lennie’s emoting a bit much), this really didn’t need 90 minutes, especially on the day that daylight savings time ended. John Carroll Lynch was excellent as always. Unfortunately he is a one and done as is Tabitha. Having just watched Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, all I could think was that’s a beautiful goat and it’s Georgia. I would have rather had us learn Morgan’s backstory throughout the season rather than devoting a full, extended episode to it. Schrodinger’s Glenn continues in his dead/undead/alive state for yet another week.

From the recap, I actually did laugh out loud at: Somebody please explain to Alison that bra straps are almost always meant to be hidden. The only sex more awkward than Cole with Chatty McChattypants was Noah the brilliant writer's tale of his sexcapades. This is the great novel that will propel him to fame and fortune? Mkay. I guess if 50 Shades of Grey can do as well as it did, Noah's sexytimes chronicle can be a hit.

My family used to say, "And I helped!" in that godawful accent all the time. That child came off like she had serious problems. There is an ad for Heavenly Greens that features a little girl who talks about how it saves on water. At the end of the ad she says, "Save some water for me, will ya?" She is so obnoxious she makes me want to open all the taps and let the water flow.

Could they? Hard to tell. Will they keep trying to be more obnoxious? Unfortunately yes. I am hoping they choke to death on their corndog costumes.
