Yesim actually had 191 surgeries not 167 (hence the title of the episode). What an absolutely heartbreaking episode. The hospital administrator who covered for this hack should be in prison.

It was nice to see another example of Chekov’s Shoulder-Launched-Surface-To-Air-Missile.

I can’t believe they killed Winston.

This show had plot holes so big you could fly an Apache attack helicopter through them. Why would you kill your husband because you suspect him of killing your sister and then spend the entire series searching for clues of who killed your sister? Why aren’t you laying low and playing the grieving widow instead of doing everything in your power to bring suspicion on yourself? You don’t want your daughter being raised by your murderous husband so you murder him? The same daughter that you pawn off on literally anyone at the drop of a hat. And your only suspicion of your husband’s guilt is because he wasn’t appropriately sad enough? And dont get me started on the irrelevant side plots. Who cares about the secret half brother? Or Kierce’s illness? Or the asshole soccer coach. And poor PJ. He didn’t deserve any of this. The show would’ve been much better if she didn’t kill her husband at the outset but spent her time trying to find her sister’s killer while her husband and his family try to gaslight her. She could still kill him on camera and bring down the family but gotten away with it by having it seem like self defense.

When Roy finally gets his comeuppance, I hope it’s slow and painful. The use of a wood chipper would be a nice callback.

I’ve loved every episode that’s featured Margaret. Particularly this episode in this season, which has so far been a real snooze fest.

Did the family really allow the boys to have use of a cottage on the property for parties featuring so much underaged drinking that someone could die of alcohol poisoning? Don’t they have bodyguards with them at all times? Good thing cellphone cameras weren’t yet a thing back then. it seems like Harry’s complaints about essentially being the inconsequential spare are well represented in this episode. The poor kid wasn’t even allowed to grieve for his mother. The number of times they showed Wills running into Kate on campus were starting to get a bit much. I’m not sure what the point of this was.

Paul has hated Josh for some reason since day one. Maybe because he’s too quiet and won’t be the best book salesman the show has ever had. It’s not a good look when the winner has made jokes about how unqualified he is and has admitted on several occasions to essentially copying what Josh was doing.

Botanicals are generally plants that may have medicinal properties.

Dan is getting quite arrogant over the last few episodes. His “Aw shucks! Lil old me?” routine is grating.

Not only do the backstage bakers making the show samples get more time than the contestants, I bet that they’re taking the best twelve buns from a selection of several dozen

Allotting ninety minutes to a technical that requires the bakers to decipher the recipe, make two components that both need to be chilled, bake a biscuit at unknown degrees for beats me minutes and then assemble seems more than a little unfair. And then to judge the lack of definition to the stamped out pattern on the cookie was just piling on. I wonder how long it took an entire backstage crew of professional bakers to make the custards that P&P were shown eating and if they all even came from the same batch.

I hope there’s a planetary challenge this year because the only thing better than a beaver joke is a joke about Uranus.

In the episode where Danny goes to London and “meets” Jack, wasn’t there a scene where Rya meets with Jack and says something like “don’t you think you were a little hard on him?” It made it seem like Rya had put someone up to act as the Jack alter because this was before she realized that she could speak directly to them through Danny.

In my admittedly limited experience with these contraptions, the inner handle is basically a panic-bar type device that is connected to the closing mechanism but not connected to the outer handle. These laws were put in place in the 1970’s when Greg and Bobby Brady almost froze to death in Sam the Butcher’s freezer. That moment still haunts me to this day.

I know of the true story that this is “based on”, but the only similarity appears to be that both main “characters”

I can’t blame Shiv for voting against Kendall. GoJo obviously overpaid for Waystar. Kendall would’ve screwed everything up a week after he took control. Shiv and Roman will have to live with the “guilt” of selling their family’s toxic legacy for a few billion dollars. I’m sure they’ll survive.

I’d watch a “Raven’s Flock” spin-off. Is every character hallucinating? Or am I hallucinating? This may be one of the funniest episodes since S1. For someone who didn’t really do anything illegal (other than shooting his son), Gene sure has a knack for getting into trouble.

Don’t worry Kendall. Ultra rich people are never affected by elections. Just relocate your wife and kids to London or Paris and start spending your tax cut.

I read an interview with the directors of this episode where they said that they didn’t know Shiv was pregnant because the pregnancy episode wasn’t even written yet when this episode was filmed. That would explain why Shiv doesn’t look pregnant, but certainly makes Tom’s crack about her not being a good mother quite ironic. I also have no idea what’s going on with Kendall’s daughter since Rava talks in “Succession-speak” where you trying together words but don’t really say anything. In any case, it all seemed pointless. Count me among those who think Mattson is setting up the Roy Boys with the “secret” about the India numbers. He already knows they’re trying to tank the deal, so he wants them to look like fools and force the board to fire them and accept a lower buy out. And they’re just arrogant and dumb enough to fall for it.

They go all the way to Austin to “find answers” but when Hannah finally starts to get closer, she runs away. What made her so suspicious of the BIL? I didn’t think his reaction to seeing his sister’s husband and daughter for the first time in ten plus years was that abnormal. But man is this show sloooowwww. This definitely should’ve been a movie. I can’t believe that Julia Roberts was originally going to be the lead. It’s so slight. Jennifer Garner needs to be more selective. My wife read the book, so I’m determined to make it to the end. I hope it’s worth it.

KJPR wouldn’t exist without KJ, but without Jack’s money it would not have the fancy offices and staff or the big name clients. Image counts in public relations, particularly for smaller “boutique” firms trying to make a name for themselves.

While Jack may not technically be Keely’s boss, as a venture capital investor she most likely owns more than half of the company and has significant management influence, as evidenced by essentially forcing Barb on Keely as the CFO.

Great episode, but I wish it was the ninth episode and not the third. Just as everything is coming to a head between Logan and the kids and GoJo and Pierce they kill off the best character in the show. The show has been building up to this final confrontation between parent and children for over three season and I feel cheated.

I hope the Rose character is in the second season. The male lead is kind of a dud. She was constantly saving his bacon.
