  1. I heard that too and wondered if Klyden was born female, went through the transition, and perhaps that is why he believed so strongly in having Topah go through the same thing. I wonder if we will see ramifications of that? also chuckled at Dr Finn being a great counselor for couples when she needs parental counseling (from Isaac) herself! I was pleased that there was SOME true fallout from the Topah situation..and I was clapping when Ed deemed Bortus for neealy killing the crew. And literally 30 seconds later, he turned Bortus into a hero, and Bortus goes back to Klyden. Sorry, but Bortus was RIGHT in tendering his resignation. He shouldn’t be there. But , he’s a main character, so he’s not going anywhere. and how is it that the porn program kept running even after Isaac did his anti-viral thing? Shouldn’t it have “turned off” or at least “rebooted” or something. Nice to see that Raiders of the Lost Ark is still a classic hundreds of years from now!
  2. When Ed asked Cassius “do you love her?” And he said “yes, very much”, it was right after they were talking about Cassius’ failed marriage, so for some reason I thought maybe it was a slip and Cassius was saying that he still loved his ex wife very much, like Ed loves Kelly. Claire still bothers me. Didn’t she choose to have her kids without a father? I seem to remember she is an INTENTIONAL single parent. I’m a single parent of two kids, and it’s not easy. And I intended to have two parents (my ex left) and my teen son is having “dad issues”. I figured it was only a matter of time before Claire’s kids had some similar issues. Her “I didn’t think it would be so hard” just had me shaking my head. This is the life SHE chose. It is nice that Isaac can provide some support for the kids though. I did feel for Claire though when the other parents immediately came to the defense of their “precious” child. I’ve seen that a lot in my line of work. And as mentioned above, why did no one ask the third kid about what transpired?
  3. I also finally got around to watching this. The scene the show posted on Facebook, of Cassius dying, actually was the FINAL SCENE. Probably the ONLY scene worth watching, as watching Pride running in circles was anti climactic. And so now, Cassius is FINALLY gone, having redeemed himself to some degree. And Amelia and Angel of Death are HOPEFULLY gone for good So, was Amelia the baddie all along? Or was it the MIA Thompson?
  4. Yes, I’m in CA and am my som’s IHSS provider. It’s a Medi-cal program. Because of his severe disabilities and his need to have “protective supervision”, he qualifies for the max 283 hours per month. It’s defintrly been a blessing, as I gave up a high paying career and retirement for him. But, believe it or not, even the max hours doesn’t cover when he needs assistance when he is up throughout the night at times. Def makes me nervous for his future, since I anticipate the system may go broke at some point. And it took me 8 years to finally get him ON medi-cal, so it’s certainly no slam dunk. Maya was fortunate to find Kenneth.
  5. So, isn’t Mateo’s fake social going to catch up with him when he files his taxes? And Cheyenne pretty inconsistent...comparing the American Civil War with the one in Syria, like she had no clue of real world events,,,,and then talking about drones and IUDs. Keep Sayid and get rid of Mateo. I never liked him anyway. His friendship with Cheyenne only made him slightly tolerable.
  6. I guess winning the bet was more important to Dina than what the actual prize was (the Scotch) since she paid for Garrett’s ex girlfriend to show up. Though I don’t know how much Scotch costs. Good on Jonah for coming clean before the end of the episode. I thought they might drag it out.
  7. Good Point! I like her to. But now that she is in the opening credits, I think she’s probably pretty safe for now. Except, I guess they could sideline her like they do to Patton.
  8. Jimmy was the best thing about the episode. I am surprised Pride hasn’t had his ass fired. Poor Steven! Having to cover for his absentee boss, because the guy insists on micro managing his old team. And why? Because his brother was a witness? Let the team handle it! Seriously, Pride shouldn’t have received this promotion. He shouldn’t have been able to pass any psych that was given to him. Aside from the psychological issues, I doubt he was really up to the task physically. at any rate, when he got the phone call from Chris and he was THANKFUL because he got out of a boring meeting, I was pretty pissed. He left Steven holding the bag (love Reggie Lee!). And apparently he really doesn’t appear to LIKE his job. Somebody FIRE HIM PLEASE!
  9. I was concerned about JJ taking thr wrong meds. It was a heart med. I don’t know what the side effects are, but no one really seemed that concerned. I thought maybe the meds were anti seizure meds? We don’t know JJs entire medical history, but I do know a few kids at my son’s special school with CP, who take anti seizure meds. i guess I’m a little sensitive on the meds since my son was on them for seizures for 18 months. Didnt work. God awful side effects . He’s been off meds for over 9 years now. My dad had some weird side effects to some BP meds, which he is weaning off of. So, I was strsssed for JJ the entire episode. Ray was creepy this episode. Billy was downright annoying. And with the current climate of the opioid issue, and deaths related to prescription drugs, I was really disappointed that Billy would write illegal scrips to play around with drugs.
  10. I got a chuckle at the scene in the professors office, when the student berated Pride for profiling Yasmine for being Muslim....when the entire group profiled Pride the moment he walked in the door because he was a federal agent. Yasmine’s snarky crooked smile just made me want to knock her senseless. I like Hannah, and I hope she has a REAL GOOD reason for not seeing her daughter! Because , as a mom, leaving her kid behind..and then returning to town and still avoiding her ..is not very endearing to me.
  11. Someone named Cheyenne who named her kid Harmonica and wants to be judgemental about Parker...Amy should have told her and Mateo to “shut the f up”. i did not know the rules about births and baths, since my second son was born in a birth tub and everything that needed to come out came out right after. I loved the Amy and Sayid bonding. And I personally would have LOVED that closet to pump! I was working 12 hour shifts as a dispatcher , so not only was it hard enough to get up and take a break to pump (911s don’t ever stop ringing), but I was relegated to the telephone room adjacent to the dispatch center, where I was sitting amongst wires and computers ..and the “bell” that chimes every time a 911 call came in! My milk supply definitely suffered because of the stress. I was actually jealous of Amy!
  12. I really enjoyed that episode! And as an herbalist, I was fist pumping when Pride spoke about his stance on pharmaceuticals. I wonder if that was Scott interjecting some of his really feelings? And, he went with an herbal tea, which worked! (Yea, Pride, it’s just Herbs, no magic!) I like Jenny. I hope she sticks around. I also enjoyed Zaire in the cafe/herb shop. I’m enjoying Tammy this season. And I really do like Hannah too. Really creepy story with the black market organ harvesting. I wonder how common it is here in the US?
  13. I like Tammy too, since they toned her down. I hope they keep Jimmy around too. He’s quite a character ! im really liking Hannah! Yay that she’s in the opening credits. Should be around a while. I’m really tired of the “timekeeper”..or whoever she is...who keeps popping up. Can’t Pride tell her to “take a hike” or something...she keeps saying it’s “his” dreams and “his” choices and all. He needs to choose to have her disappear. She’s annoying.
  14. Yep. Me too! After ignoring the IRS issue for three whole episodes, they certainly wrapped up and tied up in a nice little bow in less than an hour . oh...any other Trekkies catch that the director was Lavar Burton? Pretty cool! (He directed Scott in several episodes of Enterprise )
  15. Yay! Reggie Lee! and the female MI-6 agent was cool. I liked how in the end she really was one of the good guys...just a little gray because her job IS being a spy! And the “nerdy” part of her personality seemed legit to me. oh, Pride. Can’t you just focus on your NEW job? Hannah is being VERY patient and understanding with him. I lime her. But we all know that at some point , Pride will recuperate and decide he’s better off in the street. Fingers crossed that when that happens , Hannah doesn’t get thrown under the literal bus.
  16. All the “locker room “ sex talk with the guys and Jonah was bothersome, Jonah didn’t seem comfortable with it. Can’t he make a charge of sexual harassment against his male co workers ?
  17. Have they even mentioned LaSalle’s family issues yet? I also liked the new gal. She had a good vibe about her. and does no one in that neighborhood call 911 when there are gun shots or explosions? The cops never responded did they? And if I was the officer assigned guard duty for HQ, I’d be asking for a transfer about now, especially if Pride is floating around. He has a black cloud around him. i always enjoy seeing Laurel. I enjoy the father /daughter banter. Reminds me of me and my dad. Like Pride, He also was career law enforcement, and just as obstinate!
  18. Jonah is starting to grow on me. Now that he’s made his feelings known to Andi, Bex needs to do the same with Bowie. Kinda surprised Miranda wasn’t invited to Open Mic ..maybe it’s over ? (Fingers crossed) Anyone know if we will be seeing more of Ham? I like family dynamics. and is Buffy really moving ?
  19. Hopefully we will get a little more insight into Jonah’s home life this season, since we’ve already seen a little of Cyrus’s and Buffy’s lives. Omgsowicked, that is a good observation you made about the lost box. Although I really hope the Bowie is not behind it, because I would just lose respect for him. It was bad enough that he did not stand up for his daughter, but I can see that he was just trying to keep the peace. But if he replaced the box in the shack, that would be a betrayal of his daughter.
  20. Just watched the new episode. Am I the only one that is annoyed by Miranda? Lord, she seems so FAKE to me. And to be so foreword as to push her 7 year old on a 15 year old just so she can have time alone with her hot boyfriend. No wonder why Morgan has issues. And the way she talked down to Andi, like Andi was in kindergarten. Good grief. Can Bowie just please dump her? Or maybe Bex will wise up and decide to apologize to Bowie and tell him her true feelings. I like how they have made Celia more self aware ( though she may always have been ) and they toned her down. I miss Ham though. I like the family dynamic. Buffy annoyed me too...but, unlike Miranda, she is actually a KID and can be angsty and melodramatic. Plus, she wised up before the end of the episode. What kid WOULDNT want a friend like Cyrus?
  21. Just checking in because I just saw the episode. The driver/bad cop was not the partner. The bad guy was the leader of the SOD unit. The partner was younger. i pegged the partner at the beginning myself, and it looked like it when the waitress said that the guy that came in was African American (she may have actually said black or dark skinned...I can’t recall..I watched five eps in a row). When the SOD captain came onscene and he was also African American, i figured the partner was a red herring. Also, what is it with NOPD and the corrupt admin cops? Poor Estes didn’t stand a chance ! He was one of the good ones!
  22. I just finished binge watching the entire season. I actually shed tears for Estes. Really liked him. He reminded me a lot of some of the cops I’ve workd with, I was hoping he’d be sticking around as a semi regular. Am I the ONLY one who pegged LDP as the baddie the MOMENT he walked on screen? I know a lot of people like him. I’m pretty neutral to him. But every time I see him, he screams “bad guy “ to me. How did Barlow’s lady partner get away from what I would assume would be armed guards, and walk into Pride’s loft and shoot him? And of course, the old troupe of bad guy shooting good guy, and walking away without actually putting one through the brain and making SURE he’s dead. So glad they ended this conspiracy before the next season. I like Sydney. I hope she comes back.
  23. I’m trying to play catch up. And I’m laughing a bit at the jury episode. Because, seriously, I’ve gotten out of duty Permanently..BECAUSE I’m a special needs mom! Specifically, I am a full time caregiver for my son. I have a permanent exclusion. Though, honestly, I’d likely not be chosen because of my background in law enforcement. Part of my current job is the possibility that I may need to testify. And every time I get a subpoena, I get stressed beyond belief. Because arranging care for my kid is near impossible. Maya and Melanie are fortunate that they can actually “get away”.
  24. I thought the JJ/Aaron friendship was great..and although I did initially think that Aaron was a little rude at not checking with JJ about the change of venue, I changed my mind later. I was thinking that maybe Aaron found out about the movie at the last minute and had no way to contact JJ. Aaron seemed very willing to do whatever it took to get JJ to the theatre and didn’t seems bothered in the least that they actually missed the movie. I was disappointed in JJ though in that he didn’t admit to Aaron that he understood how it felt to have people tire of you. Dylan was very sweet in being the chaperone for JJ. and Ray. He is starting to creep me out a bit. And I’m very glad that Taylor was strong enough to stand up for herself and tell him off. She apparently has boundaries , which is a good thing. (I’m in a line of work where girls and women stay in unhealthy relationships because they are afraid of being alone) and..Taylor has a job. Maybe Ray ought to get one so he isn’t self absorbed.
  25. Mr “know it all” Jonah with his one year of business school is getting on my last nerve. I think he’s my least fave character now, so Amy can have him - since she’s my second least fave character. I sure hope Mateo isn’t using a fake/stolen social security card. When my son was admitted to the ER about 10 years ago, we found out someone had been using his social security number for some type of billing purposes for that particular hospital. My son was 3. I like that Dina can make Amy suffer. And although I miss Cheyenne, it appears they are using Sandra a bit more instead.
