Did Jay see the "sucked off" vision? I'm glad Hettie and Alberta made up. I don't want to see any of the "main" ghosts leave the show, but it almost seems like a cop-out to have it be a minor character.

Wow that guy was an absolute a-hole; I don't know why someone didn't tell him off.

I liked how Calvin was so sympathetic to Dave's situation with his father. From previews it looks like Kevin Pollak is going to be Dave's long lost father - he played a similar role in "Mom".

That was fun! I really liked the other couple. It's amazing with all those bullets flying around that no one on "our" team got a scratch. Ah, the magic of television!

I find it interesting that Nell truly missed the ghosts.

I was thinking "why Bill Paxton?" so I looked up the "True Lies" movie. Until this moment I did not realize that was Bill Paxton playing Simon!

It was great to see Lucinda Williams - I've always liked her songs. I was wondering why they started the segment with her already seated, so I did some searching and discovered that she had a stroke in 2020 and has some mobility issues. And can't play her guitar any more 😩

From TIME magazine: a comparison of streaming services. There is a video "Bela Bajaria Explains the Netflix Crackdown on Password Sharing" in it but I didn't watch it. https://time.com/6258245/streaming-service-guide/

I don't want Nell and Edward together either. They will eventually make great friends (if the writers allow it). The guest star ghosts continue to shine. Also enjoyed the coworker / bus driver.

Agree that this episode was the best yet! And on a shallow note, Marcia Gay Harden looked really pretty in all her scenes.

I'm glad to see Martin Mull's character again - surprised, but glad. That was a sweet ending.

In the 80s the Family Channel had a 30 minute western called "Bordertown". It was about a town on the US/Canadian border that had both a Mountie and a US Marshall who shared a jail and office. There was also a pretty French widow who served as the town doctor, and of course the 2 lawmen were interested in her. It was actually pretty good; I ended up buying the complete series on DVD. There were a lot of interesting characters. I think most of it was filmed on location in Canada; pretty scenery although it rained a lot!

The Bonanza complete series set is finally scheduled for release May 23. They've been releasing individual seasons for several years now - a new season every couple years - but this will be an entire series set with a lot of extras. I've been buying the individual seasons and have 1-11 out of 14. They are also releasing individual seasons 12,13, and 14. I'm trying to decide if I'm anal enough to need the entire complete set in one package or if I should just complete my collection with the individual seasons.

I enjoyed The Wolf character - he was unusual and unpredictable. He and Helen's friendship was nice. I like this show - it's fun and I can just sit back and enjoy it.

Helen is smart; she swapped their cover story around in the blink of an eye.

Is anyone else having a problem with this thread that when you click on it, you are taken to the first post and not the "first unread" ? Then I have to go to the last page and look for the "unread replies" line. I don't have this problem with any other topics I follow. This has been happening since the forum upgrade a couple months ago. I reported it but I haven't seen any change.

Yeah, I kinda got whiplash with the way Lexi was presented. It's a relief, though; she was really unlikable in earlier episodes. Was that Tony Plata as the dead baseball announcer? If yes... that man does NOT age! I can't imagine running a restaurant would be easier than writing obituaries. I would like to see more of Nell's family. I liked her father. I hope we eventually see the brother

That fight between Helen and Ximena was great, but Helen should have had some bruises or something! I like that they have the neighbor checking up on the kids. I'm enjoying this show - it's ridiculous, but so is most TV.

I really enjoyed it - it will be fun to see the couple in action!

I think I saw he was doing the "Colbert Questionnaire". Those are often taped ahead of time, so it's probably new footage.

The restaurant looks great, but it's a shame that a unique neighborhood business was shut down to make room for it. Calvin should be flattered by the likeness!
