  1. Sister Act 2 was my daughter's favorite movie for years. We watched it over and over and over again. Come of think of it, she was equally as fond of the second Adams Family movie. "I have seen the unholy maggots that feast in the darkest recesses of the human soul!" I can't miss A Knight's Tale - it's the jousting. Followed by the long discussions about why the lead actress is not as good looking as the actress playing her hand maiden.
  2. I watched this late so....I find that I'm enjoying the show (if not thinking about it so as to miss the plot contrivances), but every time the big bad in the hooded brown bathrobe shows up, I can't stop laughing. Really? A big brown velour bathrobe?
  3. Patricia was from the Teams season, same as Amanda. She came in second to Michelle, the "lone wolf". I get the same Patricia vibe from Sandhya. She's more of an artist than a designer.
  4. So, she's a stay at home mom and he's a stay at home dad? Shouldn't there be some bread winning? I like the actors but this show sucks big time.
  5. Something seemed off when she could do an ultrasound, especially using old equipment, and the patient didn't have to drink lots of fluids. The fetus seemed awfully large and well developed for that time frame also.
  6. From more recent shows: Treme - great great song and graphics. I've watched the whole thing on DVD/On-Demand (vs live broadcast) and have never FF'd through the credits. They're slightly updated every season but always include the huge wave entering the house and then turning. Masters of Sex - every image in the credit sequence is a play on euphemisms for having sex. Mad Men - so great a credit sequence that people are speculating on when it'll turn into live action. There's an ominous realization that the show will probably end with Don Draper falling/jumping out of a window, just like in the credits.
  7. Had a real Losty vibe! Which I liked because first season Lost was awesome. The guy who brought his son in to be baptized gave a name of someone who disappeared who was no saint to Jamison. When Jamison researched him and printed out the poster, it sure looked like our friendly dog shooter. Am I missing something? And big points for me - Laurie got a Sharpie!
  8. There was also Young Indiana Jones. He actually lectured the parents of America to make their children watch it so "they would learn history." It was fiction. I'm intrigued enough to watch further. It might help that I don't watch any shows on CBS. This is kind of in the tradition of the one crappy summer show that you watch - they never turn out well. Like Harpers Island, Persons Unknown, The River, and Siberia; when it's hot out, you need some time wasters.
  9. If a lot of on the show will be communicated by the characters writing notes to each other - please give all of them Sharpies! Everything that Laurie wrote, I had to stand next to the TV to read. Something made me think that Nora is just asking the questions on her own. To be the only one from her family not snatched must be devastating. Maybe she was the one with the Chief? Peter Berg! He was the dead guy in the gas station.
  10. OK Brookdale - just letting you know that I will not be contacting you to "customize my senior living solution." Ever. Please go away. btw - I may have complained about this before. I have a feeling that I will be back.
  11. I Want to Marry Harry - the guy did party with Ryan Lochte in Las Vegas. There might be room for doubt..... but they probably are just fame whores who want to be on TV. I think that Deadliest Catch is still pretty real.
  12. "Go you chicken fat, go"? I've been cracking up over this ad. Because I am as old as dirt, I remember when each elementary school classroom had a copy of this record. During inclement weather, the teacher would play it and the class would follow the instructions and exercise instead of going out for recess. Chicken Fat, it was a thing.
  13. That's what I thought. Except that Hugh's character would have realized that the readers of Horse and Hound deserved an answer to a real question. And he would have drunk tea. But the commercial that has me scratching my head is one from Lincoln Financial (?) that ends with the punchline that they are the company to contact when you are ready to put together "your senior living solution." I know it's corporate speak, but it smacks a little too close to the Final Solution for me. Who wants to have their final years referred to in this manner?
  14. "That sex scene between "Always be Closing"-Lite and Computer Grrrrl was a little annoying in that it seemed to be a blatant attempt at selling sex early on in the program to keep the audience from switching off, but I know that they do what they have to do." I was 25 in 1980. And I worked in deepest darkest Silicon Valley, in high tech. At the risk of being branded as a total slut, that sex scene seemed pretty in line with what I experienced. After the late 60's and before AIDS, people had lots of casual sex. The hair, not so accurate.
  15. I'm sorry but if you're going to call yourself a ninja and sneak around snooping on others, then it's important to retain your ninja skills when you find the product of your snooping. Read the clue to yourself and don't let the snoopee know that you have done so! Woo is only a semi-ninja in my book. Spencer is an idiot. Put the damn clue back in the pocket of your pants. Tasha and Spencer are partners, right? Why didn't one of them suggest an end to the immunity challenge when it was only the two of them?
  16. Oh that super special twist -- they're all going to the finale! How unexpected! How come it's never, we cut two people instead of one! I agree with the sentiments about the uselessness of the judging panel, but I thought the guest judge actress was pretty good on the rare occasions when she could get a word in edgewise. I have no idea who she is because I'm too snooty to watch cartoon movies.
