  1. Saw this last night on D+. It wasn't bad per se, it just didn't make an impression. I didn't come away feeling blown away or even entertained. It felt very paint by numbers. Maybe I'm just over Marvel or maybe I just want something that can stand on its own without being connected to previous or upcoming movies. I'm not tired of Marvel as much as I'm tired of the MCU. I only saw Eternals once and could didn't remember the Celestial Island or that it contained adamtium (sp?), will this discovery bring Wolverine and the X-Men into the MCU?
  2. Have to go with Piano Man. I also really like "Matter of Trust" mainly because of the video with Christie holding baby Alexa. Wishing Billy a speedy recovery.
  3. Is this show nearing its end? Building a pool? Does no one want to move to Laurel anymore? They move every two years? Who does that? And with three kids? I thought it was a waste of money. The pool looked nice, as did the gazebo, but there was not enough privacy and it seems like anyone could just walk in off the street and be in their yard. The art studio was very nice. It was nice to meet Katie's husband. Is this their final season of the show?
  4. Now that TCM is having guest programmers on Saturday night I've been recording the movies so I can hear the commentary from the guests. So the first movie this weekend was Frankenstein (1931). Yes, this movie is nearly 100 years old and I realized I had never seen it. I've watched (and love) the Bride of Frankenstein numerous times and just assumed I had seen the original. But nope, nothing was familiar. It was such a good movie especially considering it's almost 100 years old. Karloff brought the menace, and Clive was just the right amount of crazy so that you believed his change of heart.
  5. Loved it! I will be rewatching Rogue One this weekend. It really was a great series and love how it lead straight into the movie. Is it at all possible that Bix didn't find out she was pregnant until after she left Cassian? Not all women know the moment of conception. Everyone looked more or less like they did in Rogue One, poor Mon Mothma, a year on Yavin and she's so drab. How did Perrin survive and still live the high life? Although he looks miserable. I guess Dedra could have wound up on the Death Star, but this is better. Great job at not dragging a series out too long.
  6. I REALLY wish this had been the series finale. It was a good episode. Hated naming the baby after Bobby, but I get. That was a cute baby. Chim will make a good captain, Girard is gone back to TV, Athena sold the house (she will get a pretty penny for that house). Sue was back! I love Sue, just wish we could get more of her and Josh together. Maybe next season Maddie will be everyone's supervisor thus explaining why she can't wear a proper uniform. I didn't feel anything at Eddie coming back, I'm even over Christopher. Please make next season the last.
  7. I wish the show had found it's footing. One of the best episodes from season 1 was when Alec had to go to court and go up against Malcolm Jamal Warner as another kind of consultant. Too much focus on the assistants. And too many cases that warranted FBI involvement and the ex-wife, she should have been recurring, if at all. Rose episodes were generally good, but the show just never could decide what it wanted to be. I don't think I'll miss it, which is sad.
  8. Amazing episode! Little Kleya was a Boss! So was grown up Kleya. Luthen Rael (Lear spelled backwards) and Kleya, we'll never know their real names, what a family. The slight panic in her eyes when she realized what Luthen was doing. Knowing this was one they were not going to get out of. I hope she makes it off Coruscant and to Yavin. Poor Lonni, he never stood a chance, and he never knew what his intel did for the galaxy... Just a matter of time now Dedra. So much like Syril, thinking she's more important than she actually is.
  9. I did not like the final product. I thought the two kitchens was just unnecessary. And the house was too busy with paintings everywhere. I didn't even like the table Ben made, it was nice but not as a dining room table. The pedestals were nice though. I chalked it up to artists having a different eye for what they like. She seemed happy. Her sister seemed underwhelmed.
  10. Well I'm glad both twins are okay. I don't know what to think about the end of Moriarty. I said "cremate the body right away". I just don't think this is the end. I hope it is, because Moriarty didn't belong in this show, but Mary and Ingrid both seemed to act a bit out of character. I love Tika Sumpter, so she can stick around. She already has more chemistry with Morris Chestnut than the actress portraying Mary. So many unanswered questions. I hope this was really just a course correction with TPTB realizing they had to get rid of Moriarty. I'm glad Stephens said his peace to Ingrid, she rarely ever faces consequences for her actions. Curious to see what next season brings.
  11. This bothered me too. It took guts for her to give that speech. But I hate the thought that she's the leader of the rebellion because Luthen decided it. For once, I want someone to stand up to Luthen and be right. I really wanted Mon Mothma to have a lot more agency in the rebellion. I know Erskine was really working for Luthen, but I think he really did respect Mon, and I was relieved he got out of the Senate alive. Benjamin Bratt acquitted himself well as Bail in this episode. I don't think Cassian minds about getting recognition, that's not what it's about for him. The people that matter know what he did for the rebellion, Mon Mothma knows what he did for her. He's in the wrong business if he needs to be recognized and praised by all for his work. Only three episodes left...I'm going to miss this show.
  12. Amazing episode. It was just so sad as the Ghor started to understand what was really happening to them and that it wasn't going to end the way the hoped and they just started singing, so sad. The imperial sergeant realizing he was leading his men to certain death. The horror when they released the KX droids, it was brutal the way they killed people, poor Enya, I think I screamed too. My heart was in my throat when Cassian and Wil were trying to get to each other. And Syril, he wasn't as horrible as Dedra, but I can't feel sorry for him. He was like Javert, only Cassian didn't have a clue who he was. He looked shocked that Cassian didn't know him. And almost like he wanted to know who he was too in that moment. I think Dedra didn't expect to be around when the plan was executed, she maybe realizes she's not important to the Empire either, she could easily have been killed during the massacre. So this is how Cassian got his droid? Star Wars really knows how to do part two of a three part series.
  13. I liked it. But any time you show me all the Doctor's I'm happy. I remember an early episode of DS:9 and Jadzia and Kira were talking and Jadzia something along the lines of forgetting what is was like to have a female host and how she was going to have to adjust to how men reacted to her. I think it's the same for 15. Yes, he's been black before, but mostly he's been white and it takes minute to remember how you can be treated and it's comforting to be able to go somewhere that makes you feel "safe". I didn't really understand everything with the Barber, including how long he had been keeping these hostages. And it seems he pick and chose who he would keep. I guess because he didn't kill anyone, they were all okay with just letting him do what he wanted. I don't think the Doctor cried in this one either, two in a row!
  14. I enjoyed it! It was nice seeing all the previous characters. I get what people are saying about the warden not singing. But sometimes, actors known for singing want parts where they don't sing at all, just to show and focus on another side of their skills. Everything was so unrealistic but great. Teddy didn't even annoy me. So sad to see Kaya go, I hope the actor finds what she's looking for. Wished they had gotten Molly Price to come back with the other detectives. Long wait until fall.
