Agreed, @brgjoe. And who knows, his speech may excoriate them.

Goodness, that was so much more relaxing to watch than last season's clucked-up honeymoons. It was nice to see all the couples get along, even though the previews indicate it doesn't last. Tears already! Oooh, Nathan's mom isn't his damned queen any more. Suck it up, lady. Ashley, go in the water already. Also maybe you don't need to be in contact with your sister multiple times a day, especially during the first few weeks of your new marriage.

And Cassie apparently has more than one customer! But it was the "$50 extra" that made my eyes roll off onto the floor. How little is she charging that $50 is a significant amount? She was also pretty sullen about it. Jeez. Charge $1000, buy some lacy maid aprons and caps, and prance a bit. Be a damned actress.

Sigh. Maria did not look healthy. Maybe she refused makeup or something but her skin was waxen.

Thanks for the context, @Drogo. That does soften it somewhat, but blaming people for their own illnesses or death is a hot button issue for me. First, causality is often unprovable -- thin, fit people have heart attacks and non-smokers get lung cancer. But even if someone is sick or died directly as a result of, say, alcoholic cirrhosis, it's not necessary to blame them! Being judgmental makes people feel superior and helps them believe "that will never happen to me, " but I wish they'd try being kind instead. Mourn the loss instead of pointing fingers about the life.

Christ. Drugs/alcohol abuse or not, what's wrong with "I'll miss you, rest in peace?" Hey, heartless, self-aggrandizing "truth speakers"? Fuck all y'all! As if Baio hasn't done enough damage to himself in Hollywood with his politics. Mofo indeed.

@hatchetgirl, RuPaul is in six episodes as Stereotypical Snarky Gay Neighbor. The character never seemed like a Sophia to me. That threw me off for some reason. As did the name Nasty Gal; ugh. Why would that draw me into a clothing store!? I did like Annie a lot. I'd be up for Free Shane even though he took care of that himself. It says something that I didn't feel sad for Sophia when he cheated on her.

Plus 100! I just commented in a show forum how tired I am of protagonists who are fixated on discovering past secrets or righting a wrong in their family. It makes their characters very one-note and boring, especially over multiple seasons.

Damn that was a lot of musical montages -- like two per episode. It's enough, already. I'm not the target demographic but it kept my interest enough to watch the whole thing. A lot of reviewers seem to dislike Sophia but neurotic or not, she didn't really bother me. I'd never heard about the real life company and didn't have any preconceptions going in. The fictional cute boyfriend who immediately falls in love and happily overlooks his girlfriend's many flaws did make me roll my eyes a bit. The illustrated group chat sessions were my favorite scenes -- sound of doors closing, caps shouting, private messages, sig files, thread lock, being off topic, etc. I didn't even realize until maybe episode 3 that this wasn't present day. I just thought Sophie could only afford an ancient clamshell iBook!

Well, I got through it but not happily. I'm not claiming it doesn't happen or isn't realistic, but I'm personally sick of stories about adults whose obsession with a dead parent takes over their lives. Move on, already! I was a little let down with this season and am unsure if I'd be up for more. I feel like the entire arc could have been told in a 90 minute movie. Guess I kind of agree with Jerry that I'm not sure I want to be Bosch's partner any more; his sketchiness and lone wolf rule-breaking are getting to be tiresome.

It's nice that the show is including seniors since they can hopefully bring a different perspective on relationships, life experience, dating and the importance of appearance. But ... that was one huge chin wattle on Mary Kay. Then there's the older man from next week's previews whose tongue was, unsurprisingly, hanging out after meeting his put-together, attractive, slim date.

I love Sheila's super cute dresses! As much as Danielle wants to pass herself off as a rough and tumble tomboy, I'm getting high-maintenance, snooty vibes from her. Okay, some of it's the bangs, but still. She looks every bit of 30 and then some. @CarrieNation, the recaps at In Touch make liberal use of screencaps and snark.

Titus plays Bosch as so controlled and quiet that I kind of got a kick out of him rudely shutting Anita down when she offered to still be friends. He doesn't see the need for that, Anita! Anyway, Bosch's relationships with Jerry and Lt. Billets are more interesting than any of his romantic entanglements. As always in every cop show I can think of, the kids are the worst. They're never developed enough to be interesting on their own and only exist as (usually annoying) plot devices. Please continue to bite me, Maddie.

I've never seen this, but I would be in heaven if store websites could tell me if items are in stock locally. I can't count the times I've gone to Walmart for groceries only to find they're out of what I want. (Stock moves fast and I'm not sure it's even realistic to update inventory at each specific store in real time, but that's not my problem when I'm wishing on a star.)

Sorry, wrong thread.

Old news, but viewers in the U.S. shouldn't get too attached -- the show was cancelled after season one.

Jeff again took the opportunity to throw some shade on other vets with his remark that the surgery was about as difficult as a spay. Which, yeah, nobody would pay $6K for. It was interesting that Colorado has a law about keeping a maximum of four native species animals as pets. Seems a little random ... if it was intended to prevent hoarding I'd think it would apply to all animals, but I guess there's also a conservation component. Dear people who keep yammering that your pets are your children: then fucking treat them like that! Would any parent leave a baby with a broken leg for a couple of weeks while they dinked around begging for money online? Christ.

Six 90-minute episodes! I'm tickled as a viewer but hope the cast isn't headed for burnout -- actors sometimes not wanting to play the same character over and over, etc. I continue to love the period setting; the article says the series will be set in 1968 with a backdrop of the political turmoil of the time. Very fun.

The player actually said he was "poly-enormous." He deserves to have his heart stomped on again, if you ask me. I gather his blond date is a stripper, what with the reference to spending a lot of time on elevated stages? History of being burned or not, Jennifer is right to be suspicious on a first date. Everyone should be! What was Michael thinking letting himself be filmed as he was in the process of two-timing someone? Idiot. Kristen shouldn't consider herself such a catch. She showed very little personality or spark. Cat hater! Levi seemed like an interesting, genuine guy with a great attitude who's made himself a better person after adversity. Stephanie and Nelson were adorable; since they're still dating I hope Stephanie has been able to relax and not be so closed in. Do the women know there are cameras in the restroom? Yeesh.

Oh, dear. I'm just digging into this but didn't remember the plot being a continuation from last season. There were some previouslies, but not enough for my colander TV brain.

Can we please talk about the crown some more? It wasn't even a tiara ... full on freaking crown. Where is anyone supposed to wear that?

My guess is that Jimmy and his writers are being pushed to be edgier/more political because of his recent ratings dip in favor of Colbert. Biting satire really isn't Jimmy's wheelhouse (or that of The Tonight Show) and I'd rather everyone just stop.

I submitted a user review for a software program at the company's website. I was not altogether happy and gave it three stars. The company never posted it. Chickenshit move.

They may have different fathers? Half brothers seem more likely to me, given their dissimilar features and body types. I'm sure the story will be wrenching and we'll hear all about it in detail. Not right away, though! Much like Tom's bus, Nathan's keeping that in his pocket as a nice surprise. The pastor's emphatic statement that the experts aren't there to find supermodels made me snort. Don't expect them to match you with the type of person you've never dated in your entire trifling life. The two age differences are yet another indication to me that the ACTUAL (as opposed to hyped) pool of applicants was not that large. Neither couple seemed pleased when they found out. Three hours of bloat but fast-forward is my savior. Still, I was grateful we got through all the weddings this time instead of having to wait a week. It's right to the honeymoons next time, which are always my favorite episodes. Predictions: I think all three may bone consummate their marriages right away. My early guess for long term success is Ashley and Anthony. I thought it could easily go the other way, but Ashley somehow finds him attractive and they got along well enough to start. (In case you hadn't heard, he's 100% Italian. ONE HUNDRED! And he loves to cook! Packaged spaghetti with sauce! Get back to me when he tackles sushi.)

The first of what will be many cringe-moments for me -- Sheila, who works for a school district, chatting about her lack of orgasms. I don't need to know that!
