  1. My husband and I are binge watching this now in January 2021. Liking it so-so. Not caring too much for Mags or June at all though.  Bash and Dr. Bishop are a different story.  Both so handsome. I could listen to Dr.Bishop read the phone book.

    From the ending of tonight's episode, it seems like Theo's wife is a real estate agent. We know that in an earlier episode she had to leave a meeting to go to her daughter's school when there was a problem with the attendance monitoring system. If she's built up a practice, that's not something that transportable to a city 4 hours away.

    I don't think that they necessarily wanted a doctor in the family so much as Theo has been preparing for and attending medical school for the past 10 years. If her father is a doctor, it makes sense that they would be planning for Theo to take over his practise when he was ready to retire. It would make sense for them both; her father would know that his patients would be taken care of and Theo would have a ready-made practice instead of having to spend time to build it up.

    I like Theo, he's a great, caring guy, but I also sympathize with his wife. For the last few years, while he's been doing his residency in Toronto, she's been a single parent and probably just waiting till Theo gets back so that they can have the life they've planned to have. Now suddenly Theo has decided on his own that he's going to blow all that up and he took the job in Toronto without consulting her.

    It reminded me of Mark Greene in ER's first season when he and his wife had made an agreement that he would do his residency and she would do the childcare for one year, and then they would switch so that she could article and he would have the childcare responsibility. He reneged on that and it broke up their marriage. I hope that Theo does better.

    I loved Mark Greene.  To me he is the best tv doctor ever and ER will always be the best med show.

  3. In the previews for next week, I wonder who the hip hop dancer was that was supposedly terrible?  At least that’s how it’s edited to look.  On Kat, I do like the darker hair.  On Meredith, girl needs to go. I mean really.  Hannah, she looks different to me. Is her hair lighter?  Something is different.

    I detest the sob stories. You are doing this all for you, admit it. I’m sure you’re Sob Victim is proud but seriously. The worst are the “I’m a struggling single mom who lives in a million dollar house with great family support, but I choose not to work real jobs and leave my baby for hours on end to shake my ass on TV.”

    for me the only sob story that actually hit me in the feels were Carissa who couldn’t do show group bc she was helping support her family and Carissa and she wasn’t even going for a pre recorded whine fest segment. She just kept it low key and it came out in Kelli’s office. 

    Alora Rose j cannot believe Kelli is ok with the Ultra Angel fancy stripper career. Sorry they look skanky to me.

    I HATE the sob stories!

  5. I’ve been off these boards for awhile so this has probably been addressed before but if they’re in a bubble, why the masks when they’re all together?  Also, did they announce group leaders off camera?

  6. My husband and I are 2 episodes short of finishing season 2. Hallelujah. It’s very possible that we end it there. Good grief. I would swear that they spend 10 minutes on the body part of the story and 50 minutes in her head. There was one episode where ten minutes alone was her staring off into space. We started watching it because we love crime shows. Not soap operas. Way way way too much mental issues going on. When every damn character has an issue it takes a toll on my own mental health.  Get with it showrunners!  Or you’re going to lose a fan base.

  7. Rewatching season 14 and trying to pay close attention to the pics with stickers, when they have guests pick their 36.  Anyone know who DD and EW are?  My mind is blank.

    Watching season 4 auditions.  Am I the only one who thinks the Minchew sisters are fake as hell?

    Yes and why in the world they chose them for training camp is a mystery to me. TPTB had to know they’d chose the pageants over DCC.

    I was really surprised at this. I get they wanted to play up the differences between Thatcher and the BRF, but I find it nearly impossible to believe Thatcher brought no suitable outdoor clothes. They would probably be the wrong clothes—i.e., not ancient Barbour jackets and ratty sweaters and the like—but she really had nothing?

    I didn't appreciate her attitude at the Braemar Games. She doesn't have to like the event, but those people are part of her constituents whether she likes them or not. She's as much of a snob in her way as anyone else. 

    Did Thatcher really think the queen did nothing but stalk and play parlor games at Balmoral? She acted like she was the only who did any work.

    Though I enjoyed her sacking most of her cabinet. The worst of them were truly awful. So condescending!

    His emotional neediness is so intense and exhausting. The constant propping it needs is something I could never keep up. Anne calling him Eeyore was perfect.

    The Diana stuff feels a bit rushed, but then again, according to Diana herself, she and Charles saw each other only 13 times before the wedding. From some angles, Emma Corrin looks nothing like Diana, and from others it's almost uncanny.

    It was driving me crazy where I'd see the actor playing Lady Fermoy (Diana's grandmother)—it's Geordie Glen, who I know as Miss Higgins (Dr. Turner's office assistant) from Call the Midwife. Interesting that she's playing a similar sort of role here!

    Omg Thank You!  I couldn’t for the life of me remember where I’d seen Geordie Glen!  Dr Turners office assistant!  I can sleep now. Lol.

    She got promoted a line from her original spot from last season

    A little disclaimer about the formations:

    It took me a few days to make them but I am 95% I got the formation right. I am just not sure if I placed 5 ladies right but overall it will look very alike 😊

    Where was VK in the triangle last year?

    I think Iggy is addicted  to adopting underprivileged kids.  That storyline is ridiculous. You have 4 adopted children under 10. Why the hell would you want to add to that. I don’t get it. Makes me really not like his character.  And Max with the bloodstain? Wtf.

    I started to suspect during the previous episode (psycho child) and had it confirmed this episode: all the good dialogue and acting opportunities are being given to the patients. It's not that the leads aren't charismatic or can't act - they are just so poorly written, the plot lines so transparently...transparent -- they just don't have anything worthwhile to work with.

    Frankly other than Max I don't think the writers really care about them. They still haven't found a way to make Bloom's curmudgeon the least bit engaging. I don't think they even realize how little they've explored Helen. They show everyone else's lives, but they're content to just tell us about hers. Usually in the form of exposition that she has to deliver herself.

    And Iggy is the WORST, on so many levels. 

    I wish that bloodstain had looked a little duller. It looked fresh, and huge!

    Yes!  Iggy is the worst!

    Nah.  I think he did the right thing under the circumstances.  And maybe his feelings were hurt.  He has a right to have hurt feelings just like she does.  Nothing wrong with that.  Also, I didn't see any "gaslighting" going on (although some people like to quickly throw that out there every time a man leaves a woman with a broke face but when a woman leaves a man it's "you go girl!").  He just left.  

    So, we can just agree to disagree.

    Spot on!

  12. I was hoping Dr Reynolds would punch Max dead in the face.  As far as Iggy goes, I wondered went he put his hands on the kids face, that he shouldn’t be doing that. Wouldn’t bother me if they killed Max off and got a new lead. But....loving Judith Ivey’s addition to the show. I think the only reason he wanted to keep Dr Sharpe was that he knew he could get away with NOT doing anything she said. Because he didn’t. 

  13. This has probably been addressed before but, does JB get the money his adult children earn from Counting On?  Because this is how I read it and I’m wondering why she would have to get lawyers to get her money from her dad. He gets the money and then doles it out to his, again, Adult children?  Am I reading into all this right?

    Angela Bassett and Peter Krause have no chemistry but I blame him. He's about as sexy as a wet noodle. I've only ever seen him in Parenthood and The Catch, and he was about as bland, boring, and vanilla as anyone could possibly be, and he really isn't any different in 9-1-1. I've heard rumblings that he was actually appealing in earlier shows, but I didn't see those. Something must have happened between Dirty Sexy Money and Parenthood, because his sex appeal is at a solid 0 for me on a scale of 1 to 10. 

    Angela Bassett, OTOH, I expect could generate chemistry with almost anyone. (Except Peter Krause, apparently).  They're a good team but they seem more like friends and co-parents than a married couple in love.

    How nice to see I’m not the only one that feels that way about Peter Krause.  Didn’t like him in Parenthood nor in this. And him with Angela Bassett?!  No way in hell.

    Yes, this is good to know for viewing season 13.  Unfortunately, CBS All Access is not free, and Pluto TV is.  I already pay an exorbitant monthly fee for my cable and I cannot pay any more.  ☹️
