I think there was some symbolism in Jen crawling out of the grave and walking towards the sunrise.

Woo Hoo!!! 3/5 this week. I will bring some healthy oatmeal cookies with chocolate chips instead of raisins.

Week 3: 2/5 Week 4: 2/5 Consistency, thy name is mediocre. I

Yikes. 1/5 for me. I'll bring some zuchinni bread this week made from the last giant squash in my garden.

The Emmys actually listened to complaints about the in memoriam segment. A discreet chamber orchestra just off stage, full screen pictures of those lost, a performer who wasn’t determined to make the moment all about himself. Although I don’t know much about his music, Jelly Roll just performed at the Oregon State Penitentiary last week. Seems like he is practicing what he preaches.

Not an impressive start for me: 2/5 Vampire Slayer Garlic Cheese Curds from Face Rock Creamery in Bandon, Oregon, for everyone.

I'll join in...mainly because I now owe 30 Helens virtual cheese from Tillamook.

Well...I'd prefer to pass out samples from Face Rock Creamery in Bandon, Oregon (also on Hwy. 101). It's a little closer to home, but not as well known. Anyone for some Vampire Slayer Garlic cheddar cheese curds? Bandon is also home to the famous-among-golfers Bandon Dunes golf course (also on Hwy. 101).

I'm really annoyed Oregon was left out of the 101 category. I thought they might have at least had a clue about the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

My cousin, a big Beetlejuice fan, really loved it. She's ready to go back and see it a second time. The flashback to Beetlejuice's origin story with his ex-wife was odd. Why was Beetlejuice narrating in French? It made me think of the truly horrific French documentary Night and Fog.

Didn’t Mabel wipe up the blood when the cork from the opener flew across the kitchen?

Could Mabel’s clothes be purposefully ill fitting and unflattering this season? I noticed when they were walking down the NY street in Hollywood, Mabel walked with her hands down, showing the tightness of her pleated skirt. Then, she dropped her hands and folded her arms across her stomach. Why would costumers put Selena Gomez in clothing that isn’t flattering when they obviously have Steve Martin and Martin Short in attractive outfits?

Yah! I'm so happy. I hope they start filming soon before Hugo has another growth spurt.

So disappointed. It's same old, same old every year. If you're a slumming movie star, you automatically get nominated. Palm Royale taking a comedy nomination over Ghosts and Acapulco is incredibly annoying to me. Also, The Bear is not a comedy, and the producers should be brave enough to enter it in the drama categories instead of going for a sure thing win in comedy. Sorry about the quote box below. I can't figure out how to remove it.

I've read various stories from the producers that hint that a fourth season is very possible. I can't cite a source, but I've read that it does well internationally, especially in Latin American markets. Also, Lin Manuel-Miranda's father played older Beto in the finale. If Acapulco has captured Miranda's attention, it's a good sign for another season. There are definitely more stories to tell. I'd be really disappointed if a season four doesn't happen.
