  1. I'm pretty sure this has been my favorite episode so far. Didn't realize how much I missed Riker and Troi until I saw them. And I loved Kestra, the actress also looks like she could be their daughter. I really liked Troi's explanation to Picard about why Soji is having such a hard time. I also think Picard thought she would trust him the way Dahj did and that hasn't happened yet. I couldn't tell if Chris was playing Agnes or if he really suspected Raffi. I hope it's clear now that Raffi is not the problem. I did like seeing her being so kind to Agnes. What kind of EMH is that though, doesn't show up when you ask for him and then just shows up randomly? Was bored with the Romulans, although I did like Elnor and Hugh working together. Show better not kill Elnor...yet. This show has a high body count for the first seven episodes.
  2. Finally saw this and loved it! It was obvious it was not meant to be taken too seriously and that the cast were having a great time. I was shocked to find that great nana was played by K Callan (sp?)! But great seeing her again and she did a lot with the little she was given. From the trailers I was nervous about how over the top Blanc's southern accent was going to be, but it wasn't as grating as I thought it would be and I enjoyed his character a lot more than I thought I would. I love Chris Evans too much to hate Ransom, but was glad he got his in the end. Loved Richard realizing it was over with Linda when she read Harlan's note. It seems he really cared for her, even calling her My Sweet or something along those lines. And she knew immediately the page wasn't blank. Had to watch it again to pick up on things missed the first time, but just really loved this movie.
  3. Finally saw this a few days ago and really enjoyed it! Awkafina was really good, she just gets better and better in every movie I see her in. I liked the scene in the car as Billi and her parents are on their way to the airport and you see Billi's mom fighting tears. I loved the scene where her mom told her why she wasn't showing how upset she was but you could see in the car that she did feel the emotion. I was so relieved to see that Nai Nai is still with us so many years after her diagnosis.
  4. Another enjoyable episode. Was Harrison implying that Bryce's family was moving away because another black family moved into the neighborhood? Sad for Bow losing her first boyfriend. Loved seeing someone Santamonica can't bully. I would like to see more of the new neighbor kid (Nicki?).
  5. Coming to add to the Mouse is Dionne Warwick chorus. She sounded a little frail at points but so does Dionne, when she hit those notes though, that could only be Dionne. She has a distinctive voice much like Gladys Knight and Patti LaBelle. And to be 79, she sounded great. Could the Kitty be a gymnast, like Gabby Douglas, not sure she can sing? Nice start to Group B
  6. I didn't know she wasn't regarded as a good actress. I thought she totally deserved her Oscar nomination for Age of Innocence and I would have loved to see her in the Godfather 3.
  7. This is one of my favorite Winona Ryder roles. The movie itself it slow and boring in parts but when Newland tries to finally break free and May slowly stands and says "that's not going to be possible" I just love it. Of course she knew! And I did not feel one ounce of pity for Newland and Ellen.
  8. I liked this episode. I also thought Lola was going a little over the top with her reaction to what her mom said, but maybe it was as another poster said about a lot more than that quote. So glad Luke is going to the DA's office, and I hope they don't make it a thing that he and Emily are on opposite sides. I'm always amazed at how often Emily winds up in Lola's courtroom. It will be interesting to see how politics come in to play now that Benner is running for State Attorney General (?).
  9. This first group is really stumping me. The only strong thought I have is for Miss Monster. She seems like she's older and a few notes reminded me of Chaka Khan. That's my guess for now.
  10. Just coming in to add my two cents. I thought Good Times was definitely the weaker of the two, but I loved seeing John Amos again and cut him so slack as he'll be 80 in a few days. I thought Viola Davis did a great job as Florida but was surprised to see Andre Braugher stumble a couple times. Tiffany Haddish seemed to get better as it went on, maybe she was nervous at the start. The actor playing JJ was just so bad in the role. I thought All in the Family was really good. Feels like Woody Harrelson did a much better job this time around. I didn't even hate Jesse Eisenberg like I normally do. Marissa Tomei was great as Edith again. Would it kill Ellie Kemper to wear a blonde wig? All in all I still enjoyed it and hope they do it again.
  11. It happened to me too, but I was in a part of the country where a POC is not normally welcomed, so I backed out and went on my way.
  12. I love Miss Patti too, I think she may have been trying to disguise her voice until the end of the song and that, to me, hurt her overall performance. Because she has such a distinctive voice, she may have been trying something different. That said, if she leaves before Thingamajig I'll be furious.
  13. I thought that list was just of movies that will be available on the first day they go live. Other titles will populate but not on the first day. Maybe I misunderstood? I haven't signed up yet, but will.
  14. I tried watching this on HBO but could not finish. I like both SR and MR as actors but was bored out of my mind. I have a soft spot for The Tudors etc. but this just made my head hurt.
  15. Just caught up on the latest episode and will be absolutely shocked if the Flower is anyone other than Patti LaBelle, not just the voice but the mannerisms are all Patti! Like others have said her weight fluctuates, but lately her weight seems lower. Did not think of Wayne Brady for the Fox but it makes sense. Finally I think the Sherri Shephard guesses for the penguin could be right, something she did during the Smackdown performance made me think "that really might be Sherri". Fun episode.
  16. Enjoyed the premiere. Really enjoying everyone's guesses and most of them make sense. My crazy guess, based on clues, for the Tree is Darlene Love. She's mostly known at a certain time of year (Christmas on Letterman). The Tree seems like a seasoned professional and one of the visual clues made me think she may be a bit older. You're all probably right about it being AG but that was my first thought.
  17. Totally recommend watching Farscape. I would second buying a case of Kleenex and add: don't eat while watching.
  18. While flying home from vacation I noticed I was on the same flight as Dave Bautista, he was a WWE superstar then. He was waiting at baggage claim with all the rest of us. He looked exhausted. I just went over and told him I enjoyed his work, he thanked me and I kept moving.
  19. One show I was thinking about the other day while watching Avengers: Endgame was Picket Fences. I used to watch that show with my dad and we really enjoyed it at the time. I wonder if it aged well. Haven't seen it show up anywhere.
  20. I never get tired of this movie. I love how, after she saw him the final time she said something along the lines of he came back with the same lies and how she'll make sure he never knocks on her door again. I first saw this movie on TCM in my late teens/early 20's and remember saying to myself "I hope she won an Academy Award for that". True classic.
  21. I love that scene too. That sleaze had gotten away with so much for so long but he went too far when he went after Mary, Freddie wasn't having it.
  22. I wanted to quit Mad Men so many times but every now and then they would do something great and just suck me back in. I stayed until the bitter end, even though I also enjoyed most of the finale. I am over This Is Us, I'm not even sure when I quit, sometime around the adoption of the foster daughter or when Randall bought a building, I forget and I don't miss it.
  23. I was just re-watching the Season 1 finale where Henry changed the timeline and Jack and Allison were married and Jack said there's no way we don't wind up together. Always liked them as a couple and you're right, when they finally got together it was worth the wait. It helped that the actors had great on-screen chemistry.
