  1. The women often seem to have trouble mastering the buzz-in.
  2. We may see the Mayor again at some point since his office is upstairs. I guess the morgue is also in the same building, allowing the ME former-girlfriend-of-Denny-Crane to breeze in and out.
  3. Ah, the cheating Dr. Taub! I recognized him from House but forgot that Kal Penn had been on, too. I have a general fondness for Patton Oswalt, so this was a fun ep for me.
  4. I'm really enjoying this show -- leads, supporting characters, plots, the whole bit. Sorry to hear it's not doing well in the ratings. The partnership between Milt and Russ reminds me of Almost Human, in a good way. That was another show I actually looked forward to watching, but alas. My tastes are apparently not aligned with the multitudes.
  5. Thanks, druzy! The search warrant makes it seem like Toni indeed knew that her husband was a liar but never discussed it with others because she was afraid of him. Sad.
  6. Pushing someone off a precipice does seem to be one of the ways to get away with murder, if you can get the victim to stand next to one. No witnesses, no proof, just your story. The killer does need to stick to his/her narrative, however, unlike Henthorn. They do also run the risk of the victim grabbing and pulling them down as well. But no, you can't keep doing it over and over. How does someone not realize their spouse isn't employed? Did he pretend to be working from home? Even so, what was the name of his company? Was there a website, a phone number or a single client or co-worker over the course of a decade? Him being in charge of their finances or not, there were no paychecks.
  7. Did Jaclyn have a convenient explanation about why she would slap a drink out of someone's hand shortly after meeting him? I'm also not buying her explanation of ordering, because normal restaurant chitchat does not include specifics about plating or other details. "Hey, great menu. What are you having?" "The cheeseburger on a sesame roll with no pickles and onion on the side." Just no.
  8. I'm not so much wondering why these people were matched with each but why they were cast at all. Ryan D's tone-deaf, immature personality was clearly evident during the casting special and Jaclyn didn't try to hide her abrasive and rough demeanor. I'm not saying the "experts" should only look for the gentle and meek, but the warning signs were there for those two. As to couple-hood, my sister is bossy and controlling with a passive and mild husband. Their dynamic makes me uncomfortable because she spends all day telling him what to do, in loud tones of voice, but they've been married 28 years, so poo on what I think. The panel may have figured that Jaclyn and Ryan would mesh somewhat similarly, but I'm not seeing it. If I told my husband I was deathly afraid of bugs and he thought it was funny to dump a bunch of spiders on me? Just no. I felt so bad for Jessica flailing around in the ocean. Ryan has no idea how to connect on an emotional level, or even how to look someone in the eye. We only have the show's word for whatever happened with Sean and the hotel staff. My assumption is that the camera crew hadn't arrived yet, so for them to characterize his outburst as angry without showing us any of it is pretty suspect. But I also think the time for him to be crying over being bullied has past. If it continues to haunt and shape him as an adult in undesirable ways, see a therapist. Don't unload on some poor woman, wife or not, who you just met.
  9. Again, more questions than answers in my mind. There was oddly no mention of Sean's mother other than him saying she worked a lot. Is she still alive? Wouldn't she be able to answer some questions about his father? It would have been a simple matter to run down his father's current location but that story was quickly dropped in favor of the grandfather and great-grandfather. It's very likely there are cousins in Ireland who could have filled in a lot of details but that wasn't investigated that we saw.
  10. She needed to hold onto whatever miracle of structural engineering she currently wears as a bra and have a dress made. Open up the cups, my ass. Surely there's a seamstress around* who could do a lot better for a lot less than what they ended up paying. * Excluding the Bride By Design woman or Kelly Nishimoto.
  11. The @midnight site used to have a daily summary of the funniest viewer responses to hashtag wars but if they still do, I can't find it anymore. Those submissions are frequently funnier than whatever the panelists said.
  12. It always shocks me no matter how many times that happens! A bunch of (usually) teens know that one of their friends killed someone and none of them says a word. At least in the Neese case, the two girls were lying to save themselves. If it was jealousy and a love triangle situation with Skylar, that makes it even sadder that the police didn't discover that right away so they could focus on the correct suspects.
  13. I also like how See No Evil uses CC footage from the actual police stations and other areas to illustrate the ongoing story. The policewoman who did most of the narration for Skylar only looked about 21 herself. But yeah. Small town force for sure. Kenda would have had that sucker solved in a couple of days.
  14. I'm really ... enjoying isn't the right word ... but I look forward to new episodes of See No Evil. These aren't reenactments, folks. It's very interesting to see how CCTV can help solve cases. Not solve them alone, but as another clue. Even the episode with the home invasion by 5 masked men, we saw what but not who. The police in the ep about Skylar Neese were way too trusting, but her parents were so composed during their interviews I thought maybe Skylar really had run away. If I was one of those officers I seriously would have wanted to choke a confession out of both her friends.
  15. ... and sometimes I'm reminded why I continue to watch this show. I might, in fact, enjoy an entire 30 min of Sweet Emoji. I didn't mind that Cubas is a comic because he was comfortable and fit in onstage. I'd feel bad if a "real person" got on the show only to lay a horrible bomb.
  16. Oh! I'd forgotten about her smirky allusions to that in the matchmaking special. That makes her actions slightly less bizarre, I suppose. I could not figure out her coy questions about someone's favorite vodka brand upon first meeting them. "It's okay! You can tell me!'
  17. This show is interesting and all, but I may have to stop watching if the participants are going to continue to insist that specific personality traits -- but only positive ones! -- were somehow inherited from a random ancestor 200 or more years ago. Perhaps a person's parents, or their parents, or even great-grandparents, inculcated certain values and beliefs that were passed down, but that's learned behavior. I see no reason to be either proud and/or ashamed of far, far distant relatives. Jeez. I may be too pragmatic for genealogy. Me and Graham Norton.
  18. Ha! True. "This is the story of a woman and her five men: high school boyfriend, father, husband, lover, and a Walgreen's clerk who once showed her the Kotex aisle."
  19. Seriously. This is a business? How do they go about closing the barn door, anyway? It also strikes me that employers who won't hire someone because of a drunken spring break photo are pretty short-sighted. Is it a job that requires a security clearance or government background check? If not, then shut up.
  20. This was presented so differently than the 48 Hours version that I didn't even remember having seen it before until the courtroom scene of Todd slapping himself and ranting in what sounded like a thick Russian accent. I guess the first sadsack boyfriend was supposed to be one of those background friends who explain how wonderful the victim was, how she lit up the goddamn room, etc., but all he did was make it about himself. Keith let that interview get away from him. Stop trying to make a high school romance relevant to a murder that happened years and years after the breakup in question. What really bothered me was James and Rachel carrying on an affair basically in plain sight of their spouses and children for a couple of years. Jeez. GET A DIVORCE ALREADY! Why either of the scorned spouses put up with it after finding out is mystifying. From the rundown look of his house, Rachel's asshole dad isn't exactly making a good living as an artist, so pot/kettle, dude. Count me as another person who feels sorry for the kids growing up in that poison.
  21. I should re-watch the casting special to be grateful for all the crazy we didn't get. I remember the BDSM guy, Asian women-liking guy, very butt-specific guy, ditzy, horse-faced blond whose friend was mocking her for the long list of physical attributes, and stoner black guy.
  22. In fairness (and neatly), it cuts both ways. The pious wouldn't want my heathen taint around them, and devotees of Fox News would have the urge to shove a sock in my mouth fairly soon after meeting. Unless the guy is 65 and retired, he'd better have a job. I don't care what kind it is (although legal is preferable) but I haul my ass to work M-F and so should he.
  23. I was wondering what happened to my Echo Valley order and then it showed up today. Either they don't send shipping notice emails or I didn't see mine. So it only took 4 days to arrive. I sampled and everything is tasty. But then, when is cheese spread not good? The summer sausages are nice. I'm no trained taste tester or connoisseur of cured meats, Kevin, but they seem about the same as similar offerings from Hickory Farms or Harry & David.
