It was bugging me how familiar the actress was playing Bradford's sister until I Googled her and realized I know her from playing Jane on Mad Men. Also, there are two actresses named Peyton List. I thought that wasn't allowed, hence why some actors change their name or are forced to use a middle initial. I wonder if she ever shows up for an audition and they say, "Sorry, we meant the other Peyton List, the younger version." Just a random observation. Giving birth in a giant inflatable pool seems so messy. How do you even dump it out afterwards? Can it just go down the shower drain or are there giant clumps of afterbirth in there? Okay, I'm going to stop thinking about this and finish my breakfast burrito.

It totally is, but I was glad to see that Bev was supportive of him going to NYU. That was a nice change. Poor Dave Kim and his weird new roommate. I liked his comment about how this grandpa is a lot different than the other grandpa. Maybe Dave Kim can reinvent himself in college and become known as just Dave. Adam was a little too nonchalant about the effect his deferring would have on his friend. I can understand why Erica and Geoff didn't want to know what they were having. There are so few genuine surprises left the older you get (at least good ones anyhow).

And now she has added a python to the mix. She posted a video of it eating a live mouse. So that's three pastel dip dyed dogs (or maybe two, I think one died a while back or was killed by Sophia), a cat (who has been MIA on her posts for a good while), a mini horse (who was kicked out of his farm due to Farrah's Yelp rant toward the owner over $60), two peacocks (in a cage that is way too small), and a python in a high rise luxury apartment. Well, the horse is on another farm somewhere or back in Michael's backyard. Maybe she moved back in with Michael too. She posted a one star review of her overly priced apartment on Yelp in typical Farrah speak.

Sounds like you're right according to this article. I don't know what they mean by "sort of defer" other than no one can seem to make a simple declarative sentence these days. Everything is sort of/ kind of. Adam's making a choice to forego NYU; he was accepted, but we're going to have him sort of defer for a year to keep his eye on his mom. But he is still going to be committed to being a filmmaker, that's still his goal. In fact, we actually have a cool episode — a couple episodes — with David Hasselhoff. We got the Hoff, so we're very pumped about that.

That also bothered me because it was such an obvious wig.

Yes, thank you! It was driving me crazy trying to figure out who that outfit would work on with its pointy shoulders. I kept thinking Count Choclula, but he has regular shoulders with a pointy hat. Lori's dress is absolutely perfect for a Disney villian. The live format was not fun, but it was nice to see all the sharks together at one time.

Sam's mom continues to be horrible. "I almost called 911 last night." What stopped you? Your son was murdering someone in the basement while his chained up therapist watched. Then you're going to allow him to bury the body in the basement. I mean, what is it going to take? I feel like eventually he's going to murder his mother if the doctor can make him see that she's not that great and basically enabled his abuse by doing nothing to help him.

That one and, "I'm a sexual fluid."

She looks pretty pregnant here. I really thought that was a stained shirt, but I think it's just an unfortunate design.

I actually liked the top of Barbara's dress. It would not have been bad with a solid color pencil skirt. The ruffly bottom in different pastel colors is not a good look for anyone over 6 years old. I had more of a problem with Lori's dress. It had that weird diamond cutout to expose her cleavage and the shoulders looked pointy. Why would anyone want pointy shoulders?

Looks like you called it as Miles Tiller is hosting the season opener. S48 E1 · Episode 1 Oct 1, 2022 Host Miles Teller; Kendrick Lamar performs. S48 E2 · Brendan Gleeson; Willow Oct 8, 2022 Host Brendan Gleeson; Willow performs. S48 E3 · Megan Thee Stallion Oct 15, 2022 Megan Thee Stallion hosts and performs.

I actually liked this episode and thought they handled Murray's passing as best they could. I lost a child when he was 4 years old and I immediately got rid of all his clothes, toys, furniture, repainted the room just trying to make the grieving process go faster (which doesn't work). When some time had passed, I really wanted that ugly green chair back that we used to read Goodnight Moon in every night. That's probably why I liked the episode and I cried when Murray's chair was in the baby's nursery. I don't know what the rest of the season will bring, but this one was good for me. Bev's bedazzling diapers seemed like a choking hazard, but totally on brand for her. Also liked her wondering at the end where the dog was. What did ever happen to their dog?

And now she has peacocks. Two peacocks. In an apartment. In downtown Austin. She can't pay $60 to have her horse's hooves trimmed, but now she owns two peacocks. I mean . . . I won't even let my kids have a hamster because I feel like having a rodent in a cage peeing all night and running around on a wheel is too much responsibility. Not to mention the smell. Farrah's neighbors are going to be so thrilled to hear peacocks screaming at all hours.

She did let her son get abused and it doesn't sound like she did anything to help, so she's not exactly mother of the year material. Maybe she feels guilty that she allowed the abuse to occur and that's why she doesn't turn her son into the police or stop his serial killer thing. I enjoyed the flashback of Ezra and his mom at synagogue. It showed how their relationship once was and why she was probably so bothered by his rejection of their faith. She definitely should have gotten over it or moved on to acceptance once he was married and had children, but it did provide some more backstory.

She is back at it again on Yelp. I highlighted my favorite parts. She's never been to law school or even taken the LSAT, but she is claiming to be a lawyer. This whole Yelp argument is over a $60 fee for trimming the horse's hooves. Seriously. The rest of the review is here. As Farrah says, please check your birth rights so you remember this!

One more quote from the creator regarding Alex, the cell phones, and time travel. Emma's line sums it up: It all kind of seems like a bunch of bullshit. Actually when she said that line in the finale, I thought something major was going to happen, but no, that was it. “I like the idea that people can have their own interpretation of it for sure,” Siara said of the supernatural elements. “But to me there’s really just one answer. And that is I think if you were to look at the painting, and that moment on the beach where Alex sees something, and we go into that wide shot. If you were to look at that wide shot, and then pick out a couple lines that he says along the way throughout Episodes 4 and 5, I think it kind of says exactly what’s going on.” “It’s how he perceives time. There are glimpses that he gets,” Siara clarified. “For example, that shot at the beach [in Episode 4], there’s the meteor, but if you were to look down the beach, you see some dinosaurs. And in the front of the frame, you see some dinosaurs. And if you look on the right of the frame and look at the hotel, it’s the abandoned hotel, it’s the hotel in 2022. The asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs hit that spot of the Yucatán [Peninsula in Mexico] 65 million years ago or so. And so in this single moment, there’s 65 million years ago on the left side of the frame to 15 years into the future on the right side of the frame, and in the center is Alex and his team in 2005.” Basically, Alex doesn’t necessarily time travel. Rather, he doesn’t experience time linearly. He sees things from the past, present, and future happening all at once. “For everything at the end of Episode 5, there are intentionally scenes and things that aren’t being shown there that Alex is seeing through pretty much the final 10 minutes of the episode,” Siara said, “Which is what gets him to go into the jungle and leave the phones where they are.”

From an interview with the writer: For example, how Alex knew in Episode 5 to leave the phones there, and how his whole thing works. I can pretty confidently say it is all in there, if people want to just go look for it. I don’t show like the flashback to explain anything with that, but it’s definitely all in there. And I think any of the other little mysteries that pop up that might seem unanswered, they’re definitely peppered in there, in a way that [I like], speaking solely as a viewer, [in the vein of] the things that I liked growing up. Any kind of show or movie that makes me want to watch it again, knowing that I have to watch it again in order to kind of crack it, that’s what I live for as an audience member. So, there are elements of all that within this, for sure. Like you, I have no interest in going back and watching the whole thing to figure it out.

I thought he was going to be a zombie, lol. When the name of the episode is Necro, you know there is going to be corpse sex (even though technically he was not dead). Still tough to watch. There have been some pretty gross episodes really. It's not as bad as the boil sucking episode, but no. I thought Sam's backstory of spending three days with her mother's dead body was sad. I didn't hate this episode.

Now you can pay to have a chat with Sophia about " private stuff she's dealing with". That seems totally safe for a 13 year old.

I really hate it in movies when one character whispers something or gives someone a note, but they don't let the audience hear or see what is said. So I hated this ending. I liked the nod to how much technology has changed in 15 years when Sam couldn't figure out how to use a smart phone. I remember getting confused about what to do the first time I used a tablet. Also, Nick Offerman is amazing and I loved his stories of how he spent the past 15 years as well as how bad his Spanish still was. So does Sam have memory leakage and will ultimately go insane? Or does he just have an itchy ear after floating in a pool of glowing slime for 15 years? Sam's parents don't show up in the finale. The married couple with the same first names I can't remember don't show up. Alex doesn't show up. What was the point? Most of the episode was spent crawling through a tunnel and getting stuck.

I thought that really came across when Noah asked Emma, "Do you even like me anymore?" They both had valid points and they were both also wrong and right. It was a very realistic argument. From her voicemails, Emma's view of her future is so bleak. She talked about the highs never being as high, but the lows just keep getting lower. It's very relatable. As you get older, it does seem like there is less to look forward to and it's easy to get lost in that, especially if you've suffered a loss like Emma. A tarp in the middle of the jungle is nowhere I would get any sleep at all. I once considered burning down a house to collect the insurance money after a very large Palmetto (aka cockroach) got in my bedroom, so sleeping on a jungle tarp is not in my wheelhouse. Also, no way I would go down that dark, warm hole (that's what he said!).

Urine facials. I looked it up. It's actually a thing. I'm all for good skin care, but come on. Even if it makes your skin look a little better, you're still rubbing pee on your face. On your face! Just no.

I'm amused how much both Mabel and Charles enjoyed the ASL sign for glitter. I'm not sure if that is even the correct sign, but it really is fun.

That was my thought as well, but not surprised given it's Farrah. There was an odd insta story Farrah made about the books she was going to require this 13-year-old boy to read before dating her daughter. They were all 12 step books and she included a bag of mini muffins. Just the kind of reading material every 13-year-old boy dreams of. It was a weird video and her speech was slurred. I wish she would get off the 12 step stuff. No way she got through all those steps in a month and is now sponsoring people.

I knew as soon as the one girl did not tell the others what Bloody Mary asked her to do, it was going to have to be kill her sister. I zoned at the end, so I may have missed something and rewatching does not sound appealing. The original Bloody Mary was in the mirror because she killed an innocent (or at least I believe that was the explanation). Then she gets out and Bianca is now stuck in the mirror. But Bianca (and I am only 40 percent sure that was her name) didn't kill any innocents. She killed her older sister (no idea on her name), but only in self defense. So . . . why did Bianca wind up in the mirror? Also, if original Bloody Mary was in the mirror for killing an innocent, how did killing three other innocents free her? I probably should stop looking for meaning in this show.
