  1. Chicago, I knew he'd pick the last house. Location seemed to be the driver for him. I think the crack in the wall was because of the window and hopefully wasn't a structural issue. The Georgian looked to me like the basement had water issues and gosh that kitchen was something..
  2. I don't want Jay to see ghosts. I love his blind reactions to the ghosts. I really, really don't want him to become a ghost. I'd be so sad for Sam.
  3. What was that? Rachel is the bad friend? And, Neff, you were letting Anna pay your way too. Maybe the show is trying to portray how Anna ultimately gets under your skin and you can't see reality anymore? Vivi lost her damn mind running off to Germany and stalking that broken family. I thought the mom explained herself very well. Anna was and will always be a sociopath.
  4. I don't think so. In the original series, one of ghosts tries to remove something from his pocket and it keeps reappearing..
  5. My husband is from Ireland and I now use the potato joke every time we get in his truck. The Irish are generally very well humored.
  6. I think last night's episode was the first one I watched all season so it was interesting that the Jeff Garlin announcement was the first thing I heard this morning. The episode was awful and they have clearly run out of ideas. Adam was a little asshole and Bev's treatment of the NYU admissions officer was disgusting. None of that was funny or entertaining. They should probably kill of the Murray and end the show there. Its over.
  7. I forgot my favorite line of this episode.... "Don't make me smack my own face"
  8. I also thought they were going down a romantic road with Thor and Hetty and wasn't a big fan. The payoff was so sweet and unexpected. This show is the best. I laugh out loud all the time. The historian going off the rails so spectacularly was hysterical. Isaac with his snarkiness (oh I thought you were upstairs). Now, Thor with his softer side. Swoon! I love the ghosts so much.
  9. If I still had toddlers I'd totally buy one. I haven't finished watching yet, needed a break. I hate seeing seniors taken advantage of. The recorded audio of two scammers discussing how they'll call "Charlotte" (forgot her real name, but I believe the blanket lady) and get $20k put on her card enraged me. Predators.
  10. I finished over the weekend and started over last night. On first watch, I didn't appreciate the slow build and glossed over the early episodes. The series didn't grab me until the Riley was attacked honestly. I'm enjoying the re-watch and also learned Riley's brother's name. It's fascinating to see Bev progress from town asshole to straight up terrifying. She is a great villain. But, like mentioned above, I also think that the Monsignor's got off lightly in the end. He turned an entire town into vampires so he could get a second chance with Mildred. Honestly. Mildred should have slapped him when he said, I did this all for you as she sitting undead in church dripping in her neighbors' blood.
  11. The migraine commercial is hard to watch. She looks, not real? Almost like a cartoon drawing. I'm sad for her 2007 picture, I think she looks pretty with a great head of hair. I'm sad she was labeled the ugly, fat sister when she was neither. It obviously took a gigantic toll on her. She should have stopped at the 2013 picture. I think she looks her best there and everything after looks unnatural.
  12. But why even tell the bathroom story? Its so rude. I wasn't going to let certain people use my bathroom but after much thought and consideration I've decided, yes, yes, I will let you pee. Uh, thanks? I'd be annoyed too. It was antagonistic. I'd wear Candiance's outfit everywhere if I had the bod for it. Except maybe the shoes.
  13. Oh my goodness. There was so much WTF in this that I completely forgot this!
  14. I just dug into my closet for my never worn LLR skirt. First thing I noticed that it is not buttery soft at all. Its not really soft at all. The pattern at the seams is off, but I've seen that same problem in a lot of clothing lines. There are no holes or tears but it is really thin. I could see sunlight through it when I held it up to the window. I would have needed some kind of slip. I must have bough at the beginning of the quality change. I forgot about this part. It wasn't a late shipment or a handful of poor quality items. It was thousands of dollars of completely unsellable merchandise, wet, moldy, stinky, faded, ripped. I'd be furious if I forked over five grand and was awarded with a box of moldy rags and no immediate way to recoup my investment. I wish they would have dove deeper on the quality change and the breakdown of the two companies. The amount LLR owed to that company (blanking on the name) was ridiculous. Did they say how/if that was resolved? I wonder about the manufacturing process in general actually? What did it cost to make a pair of leggings? What was wholesale? Where were they made?
  15. Deanna and Mark are awful people. Absolutely no sense of remorse or responsibility. Deanna with her "aren't I adorable" schtick. Not cute. The graphic that was put up showing revenue split between bonuses and clothing was telling. I agree that the retailers have to take some ownership of their own mess (diving into debt head on, no/poor business or financial plans) but, the company certainly did not have their backs by totally oversaturating the market and the quality nose dive. They were actually storing clothing out in the elements! The convention video snippets were also telling, you already have all the tools you need, you just have to work hard. Running a small business is so much more than that. Their son admitted it was a pyramid scheme. And their response, tee hee, isn't he cute, he used the wrong words. You'd love him if you met him. Barf. I went to one LLR party years back and bought a skirt. I know I never wore it but I think I still have it. It was an obligation buy and I know I didn't like the print. I liked another print but was told it was a hot item and totally sold out. At the time I remember thinking, what? Isn't this like Tupperware clothing? I didn't know that was their angle. I'll have to dig that skirt out and take a closer look.
  16. Wow. Denise. She was a beautiful woman in the older pictures and all-that-stuff really, really aged her. She looked way older than her husband. I was trying to focus on the skin on her face, which look refreshed in a good way but I couldn't' get past the lashes and the hair and the boobs and the crop tops (Crop tops!) and the poses. That wig! Shave a little off the bling budget and put it into the wig line item, stat!
  17. No one believes Wendy's transformation is coming from a positive place and no one believes that Gizelle, Robyn & Ashley are coming from a place of genuine concern.
  18. I do think Wendy’s surgeries are coming from a deeper place but no way was that approach to take. I never thought I’d like Candiance but here I am. She has matured a lot since her debut. I’m not used to seeing growth on these shows.
  19. How does this even make sense? Even IF she was a blood Morgan, they're genetically predisposed to wearing pilgrim clothing? They kick around in their Manhattan townhouses long wooly cloaks and bonnets? I mean, what the heck Sonja?
  20. Leah was beyond annoying. Eboni made some valid points about kicking someone when they are down however, why should Lu just still there and take it? Yeah, the marriage ended but it was a marriage. He was her husband. In middle school, a friend of mine was a bedwetter so during sleepovers she would put a long foam pad inside her sleeping bag. It was pink for some reason and had a dollar bill imprinted on it. That is all I think of when I see Leah's TH dress. It is hideous.
  21. I was just plain sad watching Sonja unravel. She is not okay. So far, I'm liking Eboni.
  22. I've always hot and cold with Teresa. I was happy to see her so giddy about her new boyfriend. It is amazing that she and Joe handle the post divorce stuff so well. I completely believe Jennifer's mom story. I have a good friend whose parents had a very similar story - married at 16 to an older man, moved to America, had several children right in a row. That marriage eventually imploded. It got very ugly. It been years but they still deal with the fall out. My friend initially sided with her dad and didn't really see her mom's side until she herself had a daughter. She carries a lot of guilt still.
  23. The standing water in the after scenes was significant. I don't think it will be the easy fix they said it was going to be. The mosquitos will be unbearable in that yard.
  24. Her agent said something about starting over. I was curious too. She seems like a good mom with a nice kid and I was happy for them. Kids usually don’t come off well on this show. Zion has in interesting history. It was founded as a very strict utopian/religious community. http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/1399.html
