  1. I'll always associate Nestor Carbonell as the actor who played Richard Alpert on Lost. I thought it was cool that EP Daniel Dae Kim, who played Jin on Lost, would have Nestor as a director on The Good Doctor. They were my two favorite Lost characters. Also, from Daniel Dae Kim's twitter: I haven't rewatched the episode, but this is what I got from the closing conversation between Glassman and Jessica: Glassman's daughter died tragically, in some way that causes him guilt for not having spent more time with her. I had the impression it might be suicide, or perhaps a drug overdose. Glassman's daughter was on the track team with Jessica, and usually beat her. Jessica said that she herself spent so much time at Glassman's home (presumably as the daughter's friend) that she also felt guilty for not having done something to help. I also thought that, between Dr Glassman telling Shaun he needed some kind of help to navigate his life, and Jessica's comment to Glassman regarding his relationship with Shaun, "You're there for him", that perhaps Dr. Glassman is overestimating/overcompensating for how much help Shaun really needs. At least that's what occurred to me when Shaun was able to tell Lea about his mistake and then receive a hug from her. Shaun is growing and learning, and he may be capable of more in his life outside of work than Glassman is prepared to realize. What I really like is that the show makes me ponder and analyze these relationships. It's raising the bar every single week, and that's a refreshing rarity in a network TV series that's still in its infancy. I love this show!
  2. Okay, I'm not overly-sensitive about such things, but I felt uncomfortable with the way Steven Ogg was leering at Lisa Edelstein during this show. By the mid-point of the show, she seemed uncomfortable with it too, and was literally turning her body away from him and towards the other guy, whose name I don't really remember, was it really Jesus? Anyway, Ogg kept leering at her over the top of his mug and whenever she talked. It was like eww.
  3. This. It was one of my favorite partnerships ever on the show. I'm not a skating fan, and didn't know much about Meryl going into the show. Meryl could dance her face off and performed like an Oscar-worthy star.
  4. There's a walk-in closet in his harem room that's full of nothing but dozens of identical leather jackets, size small.
  5. Thank you! Whatever/whomever it may be, I wish it wasn't happening. The cast has really begun to gel for me and I like them all. My guess would be Antonia Thomas (Claire) out on maternity leave. Thinking that the producers would have had at least a little heads up about that. It could account for what might be some foreshadowing of Claire either needing a medical leave, or being forced into one, due to losing a patient by her mistake.
  6. So, after watching 14 episodes... Kentaro gets the Dead Cat Bounce Brandon disolves in a weeping mass of man pain Ashton Kutcher jumps out onto the runway and yells All things considered it was a satisfying conclusion. And I'm not mad.
  7. oh god. The stupid, it burns. Here's the latest from The Spoiling Dead Fans Army facebook page, from an admin: The only reasonable conclusion is that Kirkman, Gimple, et al hate the show, hate the fans, and want TWD to die a quick, painful death. The level of contempt is undeniable imo.
  8. Is there a link for this? I'd like to read it. TIA
  9. My sister has only ever watched a single episode of TBBT and she didn't like it. Her husband has never seen TBBT. They've now watched every episode of "Young Sheldon" and both say it's one of their favorite shows. I hope that's reflective of non-TBBT fans because I really like this show too.
  10. Do we have any clue what's happening with the 3 finalists performing 2 dances on Tuesday? What dances are they performing, and how is that being determined?
  11. With the ginger hair and beard, I'm wondering if they've recast Abraham to be played by Dillahunt. That way Nicotero could skate around the letter of the law in claiming that Abraham is not the crossover character.
  12. It's a curse. I'm always writing storylines in my head that seem logical, satisfying, and maybe somewhat unexpected. Not a one of them has ever materialized on the show, at least that I can recall. I'll reserve judgement on the Negan/FPP scene(s) until I see if they have an actual conversation, as opposed to endless monologuing. Unfortunately, I dislike Negan so intensely, and am not invested in FPP, so even if they had a meaninful adult conversation (one of the hallmarks of earlier seasons that has been MIA), I'm not sure I could enjoy it. But, since it might interest me more than all the unforgivably godawful monolgues, it probably isn't going to happen.
  13. After one of the spoilers dropped the tip that there was a character we would end up hating even more than we do Negan (unimaginable!), I've been waiting to find out that Jesus is a betrayer. Given his name, it would be a logical flip in the storyline that also fits with calling the worst community of survivors yet discovered The Saviors. I don't think the spoiler would have been talking about Gregory, as we already know he's a slime, so what would surprise us about him? Also don't think it's Eugene, because it wouldn't be surprising for this character to do something despicable to save himself. On the other hand, Jesus has turned into a total weirdo with no explanation as to why. So, Jesus as the betrayer and a double-agent for the Saviors is my speculation. Maybe even Jesus as the son of Negan (in a further flip of the Christian story of Jesus as the son of god).
  14. By now, people are going to support who they support for whatever reason they choose. Nobody is going to be convinced to change their minds by lather>rinse>repeat that Jordan is a ringer (is not!), Lindsey isn't a ringer (is too!), Frankie is the most pure contestant (is not!), Drew is awful (is not!), the audience hates women (do not!). For me, Jordan is the best dancer and his performances provide the best entertainment. FOR ME. His jive last night was, imo, one of the best jives across all seasons. His Argentine Tango was a hot mess. Lindsey's contemporary wasn't anything special and the choreography was lacking. Her Tango was well performed, but the shadow of Maks and Meryl was too large to be overcome. Frankie's salsa was another hot mess, but he did well enough with his Paso. Drew made me laugh, but the boy can't dance. Was Victoria there last night? (I kid, but everything about her simply bores me.) Hoping for a finale of outstanding dances by both Jordan and Lindsey, and hoping that the Property Brothers' huge crossover demographic doesn't propel Drew into the final 2, because that would be rather tragic.
  15. If Zeke is broken, as I would expect he must be, this would be the time for Morgan to show up at the Kingdom and start the process of scraping both of them off the emotional ceiling and regaining their pychological strength together. I'd like to see that storyline, so it's unlikely to happen. But it should.
  16. I agree with you both. Dina's collection is far superior to Brandon's. Her clothes look well-designed, beautifully constructed and fresh. She shows evidence of knowing how to fit a woman's body, make seams, buttonholes, collars, unlike Brandon. I also notice that they don't all look so nearly identical. I can see what she was saying in Tim's home visit when she noted that her designs didn't show so much skin, as Brandon's do. Not a crop top in sight on Dina's collection. It makes me wish she had been the Project Runway contestants, rather than Brandon.
  17. Brandon's girlfriend, Dina Marie Lam, also showed her collection at New York Fashion Week. Hers is from 4:06 - 6:10
  18. I think he's Negan's number two man. Maybe he's even Negan's own son, which would also explain his name.
  19. Robert the Doll cursing the GMC! The fishing trip! The python catching! I loved every minute of this episode, the best one yet.
  20. Aaaah. Thank you SO much for posting both of these wonderful, historically important clips. We will never see their likes again.
  21. To say the least. He made the fabulous, shapely, curvy Liris look like a short, squat, shapeless, overweight and bald old lady in weird pajamas. That's a special kind of talent.
  22. It was funny seeing Kenya and Brandon reunited in New York where they both commented on their nearly identical color palettes, even suggesting they could intermingle pieces. Yet on the home visits, Tim told Kenya her color palette was a snoozer, while he told Brandon there was absolutely nothing he could critique or suggest to him.
  23. See, this nerdy savior is another guy who dies because he's too busy monologuing instead of taking action. Thank goodness Jerry shows up to put a fitting end to yet another Neganing. Maybe Jerry can join Daryl in their quest to kill anyone with the monologue virus.
