Yeah but how stupid is that? It would only make sense if she decided to keep it because it was Avery's. I started thinking maybe it was too late for an abortion but then the doctor said she's still in the first trimester. Dumb. I think they made Glen's wig look especially bad this week so I was surprised Juliette didn't even react when he came to the door without it. I am so grossed out by Skanky McSkankerson that I don't believe Deacon being even remotely attracted to her. And finally... what "fans" take pictures with "cameras"? That really cracked me up.

The best thing about the end of SOA will be never having to hear Charlie Hunnam say "Stawkton" ever again.

I think the pleasant surprise for me was that the show was not built around "I never had sex!!!" and no one believing her. I was actually so relieved when the doctor came clean, there were no "I didn't cheat on you!" scenes and no miracles were suspected (aside from her mother's initial reaction).

I'm pretty sure suspension of disbelief is a required state of mind for a show like this, with the very premise being so OTT. I loved it and I really didn't think I would.

OK, I have read through all five pages of posts here and I'm fairly convinced that I'm alone but I just don't get all the love for this show. I marathoned it last year because I hate being out of the pop culture loop in any way, and while I thought some episodes were pretty good, all in all I think it's really uneven and worse yet, boring a lot of the time. For me, last night's episode was .... fine? Michonne is really the only character I like, because I think she thinks the rest of these people are assholes so we have a common bond there. I find all of the ridiculous things like the haircuts (CAROL? Hello??) and even makeup on the women super-distracting. Hell, even the 'look at the flowers' kid was wearing mascara last season. I'll keep watching because again, I like to know what people are talking about, but even reading through this thread I kept thinking "who?" because aside from the main characters ("Coral!") I don't remember anyone's name. In general I find the tension between the surviving humans to be much more interesting than the zombie stuff now. Hell, the show is sponsored by Sprint because let's face it... that's all you really need to do to get away from them.

When Tony asked "am I a bad lover?" I *really* wanted Mary to say "Yes!! You're horrid!!" This episode just had TOO much going on. Mrs. Patmore, Barrow (what the heck was going on there?), the Bates nonsense, Sarah Not D. Bunting, Cora and her admirer, Isobel's proposal (holy shit, I'm just realizing as I'm writing this how MANY things were covered and I didn't even get to Edith or Shrimpie or the Russians!)

I really liked it and I have nothing clever or snarky to say. I need to go take my temperature now.

I have to do some research to see if the diner scene was filmed at Camellia Grill in New Orleans. My son goes to school down there and it sure looked like it (and maybe they started filming this season while still on location in NOLA for Coven?) With the exception of Kathy Bates' super-distracting accent, I give this episode three thumbs up!

Um maybe not, because in this town the Fire Chief was probably assistant manager at Radio Shack last week before deciding to change careers.

At my son's school they live in the dorms for the first two years. After that there is on-campus housing available, but they don't have to live on campus. Oh, should have kept reading before responding. My son is not at school in California. I get it.

Why doesn't Cory have ears in those photos? Was that an intentional robot thing or some bizarre Photoshop fail? Oh and NICE HICKEY, Mirjana.

If SNL hasn't done a "Thanksgiving Dinner at the Rhimes' House" sketch yet, they really need to. They could have everyone from Great Grandma Rhimes to some Rhimes Toddler speaking the. exact. [breath] same. way.

Agreed, and it was just as disgusting as the comments from Rocker towards Natalie. I'm so glad Rocker is gone, and I wish they'd go after this abusive and ignorant jerk next.

Oh, but see.... that's the THING! It starts out ALL WHITE, but as you walk down the street a taxi drives by and swerves into a mud puddle and splatters you and suddenly you have this BROWN COLOR splayed all over your outfit, and then it's NOT WHITE anymore and...and.... oh wait... :(

From your fingertips to god's ears. Hearing Betsy Brandt talk to someone named "Hank" again just made me chuckle. At least she's not all in purple.

Ha!!! I said the same thing!

"Dead Eye Dick" (aka Abel) really has a hard time not cracking up during his scenes. Which also makes him the Audience Surrogate.

I agree with Chattygal... I really liked this episode best this season so far. I love the idea of Mary being all 'meh' about Tony after sleeping with him. I don't think anyone is shipping Mary and Tom, least of all the show itself. I think the point of that exchange is that she does love him like family and doesn't want to lose him. Re Mrs. Drewe...she's been getting the creeps from Edith for awhile now, so she may have had misgivings about leaving the baby with her to begin with, hence the panic when she got home and they weren't there. So all in all, I thought it was a good one and was disappointed when it was over.

My mother had a similar color at one point that I dubbed "Palomino". Other "highlights" for me this week: - The balcony scenes which were clearly shot on the set of The Truman Show - The "paralyzed" woman who has the ability to cross and uncross her legs in her wheelchair - That fucking Shonda Rhimes cadence. Honestly, I know that Sorkin is an annoying person and the West Wing had his 'schtick' all over it, but it was GOOD schtick. Quality schtick. And it didn't feel like you could swap out any of the actors from one part to another and it wouldn't matter. (in Rhimes' case, you can swap them from one SHOW to another and they wouldn't skip a beat.) I'll keep hate-watching, usually while doing something else, just so I can come here and commiserate with the rest of you hate-watchers.

I thought the flower print looked really familiar, but frankly the addition of the deep burgundy on top really made the dress for me. I loved it.

Oh please please please can we get Korina to post here about her 'unfair edit'? In 3.... 2.... 1.....

I'm surprised VH1 allowed the 'secret' to be revealed all over the internet prior to the episode airing. That said, I agree that it seems bizarre (and illegal) for CBS to boot him from Big Brother. Project Runway has had a few HIV Positive contestants and they, too, live with the other cast members. Big Brother usually doesn't have physical competitions (like Survivor does) and as for unprotected sex...that isn't something a person can do 'unknowingly'. Plus I remember one season where they said there are condoms in the house provided by production. I felt genuinely sorry for him and for them as a couple. I take back everything I said about him slamming all ten fingers in the car door at once. ;)

I do call shenanigans on this show re finding idols AND 'figuring out' the identity of the various semi-famous people who have appeared. Both always seem manipulated by production to me. Wish a former contestant would confirm one way or the other.

Paraphrasing the Sheriff: "What if that ice cream shoppe had been full of kids??" WTF? When was the last time that "ice cream shoppe" sold ice cream? Isn't it always just the clubhouse now? Maybe she really DID just get to town. And re Girl Power: Sutter Style, let's not forget that "girls can't do maths". SO HIGH-LARIOUS and SO original!! Next week, one surviving hooker tries to change a tire. As more and more formerly-good shows fuck up their final seasons (or can't sustain more than one or two before going down the tubes), we can see how truly incredible Breaking Bad was. It stayed high-quality from the first episode to the last. Clearly not an easy feat.

Yep. The fashion is either batshit crazy or fabulous (Emily's fit 'n flare?? GIVE IT TO ME NOW); I never tire of lolzing at Josh Bowman's mouthful-'o-peanut butter accent; the career moves... it's TV to play Words with Friends by. Love it.
