My family was rooting so hard for Ky. She was amazing.

Just finished the new episodes on Britbox and I love this little show. It's not too light and fluffy, ala Shakespeare and Hathaway, but nowhere near as dark as Shetland and Vera (all shows I really enjoy, I just have to be in the mood for them). It's just the right mix. McDonald is finally growing on me, and I love Dodds more each season.

I reject this news. It makes me too sad. But thank you for all these wonderful years, Brenda!!

Yeah, I'd never heard of him either @anniebird but his Wikipedia definitely makes him sound shady.

I laughed at the "Nineteen strangers..." thing in the opening too, especially with some of them saying they've known each other for twenty years lol. I guess the problem is that quite a few of the players are famous in NZ and I've never heard of any of them.

That is driving me crazy. I had to turn them off in order to try and figure out everyone's names, so I missed a bunch of the conversations. Seems like a no brainer when you're doing CC, not to cover the text.

I love Claudia so much, she is just magical. Nice to see that some of them are finally pinging onto the fact that Harry was a little too brilliant during the round table with Paul. I'm already spoiled about the outcome of the show, but it still hasn't taken away a single moment of enjoyment because I find this version vastly superior to the US one.

I couldn't get past how much the lead actress looks like a young Kristin Davis with some Maggie Q and Kim Kardashian thrown in.

I was so sad to have Nicky and her absolutely adorable accent leave the tent...but very thankful Saku gets another week! She is so sweet and she makes me laugh every episode.

I knew before I clicked that it would be an Alan Sepinwall article. His amazing website, where he did reviews of all the episodes back in the day, helped me fall in love with the show.

Very bold strategy from Emily, waiting a whole ten minutes into the game to basically go scorched earth with a sprinkling of possible racism for good measure. I'm definitely Team Kaleb and Sabiyah on that tribe - but I also had the same WTF look on my face that Emily did when the whole alien/battery pyramid theory was mentioned. Hopefully it never comes up again, so I can forget all about it. And of course I hated Hannah and Brandon. I know myself, I would get sick on the flight to Fiji and for sure sick on the boat, not to mention I hate bugs, the outdoors and physical competitions. Also, can't swim. So I would never audition to be on this show. As someone said earlier, those two obviously just wanted to be on TV. Clearly they should have tried for Big Brother instead.

@Jaded Yep, I think that's probably the guest appearance that sticks out the most in people's minds lol I think I'll always appreciate her guest role on NYPD Blue the most, because I tuned in just to see her and that ended up becoming my favorite drama series of all time. Plus, it was Jimmy Smits' first episode! (I remember her saying that Linda Dano was a huge fan of the show, so Alicia got Jimmy and Dennis Franz to sign her script and she gave it to Linda.)

I've wondered that for 30 years, because I think she's a phenomenal talent...not to mention a badass woman and all around fabulous human being. She's worked consistently for decades, but it just seems like the stars never aligned to for her to become a household name like I had always hoped she would. At least she's always had steady work, though. I haven't listened yet, but I already know I'm going to love it lol

I follow our beloved Linda Dano on Instagram and she has started a podcast called "In with Linda Dano" that I think AW fans would definitely enjoy. So far she's had Stephen Schnetzer, Anna Holbrook, Judi Evans and Anna Stuart, plus some non-AW folks like Robert S. Woods, Deidre Hall and Erika Slezak. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that she has Alicia Coppola on soon!

You're right - Andy held his head under the sink behind the bar, trying to get answers about Danny's whereabouts. It might have even been Greg Grunberg, if I'm remembering correctly.
