    The Olympics are on the 4th - 18th I think too. 

    All the usual lineup are reruns. 

     

    Since I'm totes streaming I forget about that kinda stuff. I don't often think about networks having schedules and stuff.

  2. I've watched the first two episodes and didn't find the writing very clever. It seemed like generic sitcom writing. As if it could be from any forgettable show. Maybe it's because I'd just come off a rewatch of Community and this show pales in comparison. 

    I felt there were several instances of older writers throwing in jargon of how they think Millennials talk. It felt forced.

    The actress playing Ellen is not a good actress. 

    I probably won't last much longer on this show.

  3. This really should be the last season but I'm afraid they'll try to milk it for one more season. I should stop watching but I'm a bit of a completionist. 

    The show has become too insulated and will become more so with the exit of Jeff Garlin and with Brea leaving the storyline. We hardly see the jtp anymore. Adam used to have friends but we hardly see them involved in a story. Erica has no friends. That's become painfully apparent during the engagement storyline. And losing George Segal really hurt the show.

    The stories only seem to include Bev, Adam, Barry, Erica and Geoff with a couple of peripheral characters thrown in.

    I hate that they waited until the commercial break in between the 3rd and 4th quarter.

     

    I hate that Disney owns everything now. They're the Apple of the entertainment industry. They see someone with a good idea and buy them out.

    Bob really doesn't put his foot down. 

    I think Bob is so beaten down by life that he doesn't have the energy or see the point. 

    Gene is always better in small doses. He can be annoying when he's the main storyline. I've noticed more Gene-centric and Teddy-centric episodes this season. Do they think thst they've already told all the storylines with the other characters? I tend to like the Louise and Tina episodes better.

  6. These storylines are getting really thin. It feels like they're having to pad out a 22 minute show.

    I don't know why Gen z or anyone else is friends with Beverly. I miss the jtp and none of the teachers are ever in the show anymore. The show has gotten smaller.

  7. I love Lexi's dress and hair in this episode. It's so extra. I've loved her style so far in this series. She's so cute.

    This series seems to be trying to walk a fine line between being fun and making social commentary and it's almost getting it right. It just feels like the Douglas students are too serious and the Bayside kids are goofy and fun. I came for the fun. The Douglas kids should be allowed to have fun too.

    One time, my friend down the street just had some old guy show up and knock on the door who used to rent the house when he was there for college a long time ago. So they let him in and hung out for a while.

    Yeah that doesn't really sound safe.

    Aryanna, I am in the States too (Seattle).  We watch season 15 on the CBC channel every Sunday night (Xfinity Cable).  It is on demand so you can binge-watch. 

     

    I don't have cable. Streaming only. When a new season comes out on Up I do the 7 day free trial on Amazon and watch the whole thing.

    the details of what went on between the football players and cheerleaders were pretty disgusting. So while it wasn't school-mandated, it was apparently an open secret that participating in the cheerleading program at that school came with a heavy price.

    eww

     

    This show has become what Fesh Off The Boat was. Insufferable mother is awful, learns lesson, next week lesson is forgotten. Wash rinse repeat.

    Is anybody still watching?  We're in the middle of season 15 and nothing is really happening.  Let's get Amy a new hunky but sensitive love interest!

     

    I'm in the States so season 14 is the most recent I've been able to watch.

    Yeah, the dialogue around the athlete worship was the only part of the episode I really liked. I wonder if they're still doing that shit where the football players get their lockers decorated and lunches made by the cheerleaders, that seemed archaic even when I was in school.

    In my high school I think the cheerleaders only decorated the players lockers during homecoming. And they may have given them a gift like cookies or something. They certainly weren't slaves to the players and it was just one time not all year.

    I would be surprised if any high school had cheerleaders be what basically amounts to slaves of the players. I think that's just an invention of tv and movies.

    I loved this episode, so wonderful to see Lainey again.  Somewhat awkward to see Lainey with Barry's gal  Joanne lol. So sometime in the future Barry and Lainey get back together?

    I've missed Lainey too. I was so sad when Schooled was canceled but was hopeful that it would mean Lainey would be coming back to the Goldbergs. Alas, it wasn't the case. Lainey really should have been brought back though. Erica hasn't had a good friend to play off of since Lainey left. It was kind of sad and pathetic that Erica seemingly had no friends that she could call on to help her with wedding stuff. It made appear thst Erica was some kind of weird loner.

    On a different note, how do Barry and Adam keep getting attractive women. These guys are such dorky goofballs. Yet Adam has dated Dana, Jackie, and now Brea. All of them very cute. Barry has dated Lainey (who was way out of his league), Ren and then Joanne. I know it's fiction but it's just a little too much to expect us to believe that these two (one of whom is a self confessed nerd) could land these cute girls.

  14. It's odd to me because they did a time jump of a year after Ty died but they keep acting like it just happened. Not sure what the reason for the time jump if they're gonna treat it like it happened just a couple of weeks ago.

    So glad to see more Peter in these episodes. I always loved him. And I think he looks handsome with his beard. I wonder if he has a hairy or smooth chest.
