    I have stated in prior episode threads that I've never seen Miranda and the actress portraying her may've been better, but I personally feel it's unfair to keep comparing Kat/Mayim to Miranda/actress who plays her.

     

     

    I don’t know. I think because they are clearly intending to remake Miranda, down to reusing identical plot lines, the waving, etc., some comparison is fair. The original meshed better with the lead actress’ strengths. If they don’t want comparisons, they should write to Mayim’s strengths and stop trying to shoehorn her into a character that just doesn’t seem to fit her.

  2. Mayim is just wrong for this part I think. She doesn’t have the natural awkwardness Miranda so effortlessly shows. So it seems out of character for Kat to be so awkward. She also doesn’t play the asides to the camera correctly. The stuff with the gym friend would have played so much better with Miranda than with Mayim.

    She doesn't have any shoulders. She is shaped like a clothes hanger.

    She reminds me of a scene from Frazier. Roz is looking through a keyhole at Maris. “Where is she? All I see is that coat rack....oh my god!!”

  4. Yeah. I’m out. That was painful. Swoosie Kurtz looks like death. And I’m not thrilled with the depiction of Puerto Rico as a place where you will be kidnapped for your organs.

  5. Theo is the result of multiple writers who apparently have spent no time around actual children. One minute he is immaturely racing the wheelchair around the house like a 5 year old and the next he’s spouting wisdom about juggling torches that no 11 year old would ever say. Soon the actor will start puberty and then the lines the writers are having him say will seem even more absurd.

    I think this is the one thing that we, as viewers, are going to have to ignore and forgive on every show right now.  Nobody is going to have a baby on set during a virus situation - that's probably why on This Is Us Toby & Kate's baby Jack hasn't been seen yet this season ( just mentioned napping, babysitter etc).  I'm still trying to guess how Call The Midwife will deal with this.  But I'm giving all shows a pass for either disappearing babies or dolls that don't really fool us if it's all done in the spirit of keeping the actual babies/toddlers they would have used safe.

    I totally get this. But one throw away line like “Charlie is asleep in the house, can’t wait for you to see her” or have Delilah rocking a stroller and say “she just fell asleep.” Anything would be better than the ridiculous way they went - holding a blanket too small for anyone other than the newest newborn.  The writers don’t even try on this show. Yet, still I watch. Lol.

    I know the timeline is always confusing on this show, but this episode really had me going WTF? Didn’t they say it was one month since the accident? How the heck did Maggie’s hair grow that fast in ONE month? I am completely flabbergasted 😂

    Maggie’s hair grew faster than Charlie!

    AMEN!

    Only the viewers care.  The network doesn't.  Fortunately, I never have to watch again...and it's all because of HER (as always).

    I think what annoys me the most is that they fired Tom yet I can’t see what they gained by switching to Tyra. If they wanted a change they could have gone with someone younger - and I say this as someone who is very much in Tom’s demographic. If they wanted to add more diversity, great! But I don’t think Tyra gets them what they need. She doesn’t bring any fresh energy to the show. She’s terrible at non-scripted banter and isn’t even that good at the scripted stuff. Just an all around fail in my opinion.

     But then they say things like "that's in Africa!" in response to where Paraguay or Asuncion is located and I squee'd with superiority over how dumb they were looking.  And later on when they were all "Ewwwww!!!!! This can't be right!  We're supposed to go to the orchestra!" wrinkled noses over the neighborhoods they were driving through, I was thinking they were total snobs. 

    I thought it was Michelle and Victoria who said Uruguay was in Africa?  Which fits since they think folks in South America speak French.

  10. At least next week Victoria and Michelle can correctly use “merci.”

     

    I don’t like the alliance because it’s 5 out of the remaining 8 teams and just feels like mean girls teaming up against teams they don’t like. I do get the feeling it is Will and James pushing it and the others go along since it is to their benefit. But quite soon they will have to turn on each other or at least stop helping and I’m expecting a fit from Will/James the first time someone declines to help.

    And apparently he (or should I say she) was also going to be paying for the martial arts classes regardless.
    I was so disgusted with their catty remarks about the landlady of one place not speaking much English. Well, you assholes don’t speak or understand Thai, do you, which is spoken in Thailand? 

    Right!  “I guess we should learn some Thai”. Ya think?  You’re in Thailand!!!

    Young couple in Thailand annoyed me. Their voices, him not wanting to rely on her for money, her wanting space, him insisting on a gym. When they said they hadn't considered marriage yet, I was like no kidding.

    Ugh they were awful!  You’re in Thailand and don’t have a job. Get out and walk/run. Buy some weights. His insistence on “I must have a gym membership” drove me nuts.

    Hung and Chee, I always have a soft spot of the married parents teams and older teams if they are not assholes and thus far they are not assholes.  Plus Chee reminds me of my aunt who is four feet ten and only weighs around eighty pounds.

    I may be wrong but I believe Hung is the wife and Chee is the husband.
