did anyone else notice the body double in the shower had about 6 more inches of hair than Beckett? I cannot WAIT to see the gag reel for this ep. When Ryan put on the helmet I busted out laughing.

YES. And I guffawed at Bess: "Soo..should we order Chinese?" hahahahahahahahahaha Blake is the best.

so.much.ugly.crying. I am devastated it's over but what a wonderful finale. One of my top 5 series finales of all time (ER, Ugly Betty, The West WIng, Gilmore). Bravo.

That was my immediate first thought as well. So shoe-horned in.

"Wha? Kensi's fine. Whywouldyouaskme? Imean, ofcourseshesfine. Yeahshesfine. Wait. You know don't you."

I thought same! Thank you show, for reading our comments and clearing that up! :-) Am also intrigued about what they want with Deeks.

Did Bess inherit Blake? Or bring him with her from academia.

I liked all of it. I liked their convo on the couch playing Halo. "Abdul was there. I didn't tell you. I didn't tell anyone." I thought Bess's smackdown of Daisy in the beginning was A DELIGHT. It needs to happen more often. Daisy might have been right about the perception, but dude, know your audience! "Et tu, Blake." So she was injured in the back and the blood on her hand wasn't from the bodyguard. I liked that Blake knew enough to bring the nurse to her, even tho she'd give him shit for it. I can't remember - did she inherit Blake or did she bring him with her?

I absolutely had to close my eyes and just listen to the conversation. #creepy

I. LOVE. THIS. SHOW. and am devastated to think my time with the BlueBell-ians is limited. I thought this was a great ep. Zoe and George turned out to be such great friends. Their car conversation couldn't have happened between Zoe and anyone else. I love me some Cricket. I enjoyed all of the silly end-of-days decisions by the townfolk. Tattoo, secret crushes revealed, sundae-eating, and even Ruby's grandfather made me laugh out loud with "WHAT is going on here?!" But where was Rose?????

my favorite part? <shot out SUV window> "THAT's why we get the insurance!"

Me. too. I turned it off, deleted it and cancelled the season pass on my DVR. Sorry, Shonda, but I'm out.

Just watched Jason Dohring in a Hallmark movie "Portrait of Love." Typical smalltown boy still in love with his HS gf etc etc. Very typical Hallmark fare. HOWEVER, at one point, his character tears up while talking to his daughter and I started to cry! AT A HALLMARK MOVIE!! Which, incidentally, is not out of the realm of my emotions, but usually only when a character (or a pet) dies or something. Nope, that damn face wells up and I can't help myself. It was classic Logan face, btw.

(This is my third attempt at quoting and I still did it wrong. Sorry!!) Seconded.

YES. and YES. "I'm going to count to three, and when I reach three, you will have realized that asking out your best friend's girl the day after they broke up is a bad idea." heee Altho i very much liked Otis's concern for his friend - don't date someone who makes you feel like meatloaf. I was also hopeful for Mills to leave. Maybe he will, because he gets squad in another house. I like the new guy, if only because he makes Severide want to be a better person (IMO). I liked Kelly's explanation to the girl in the greenhouse. I wanted some Mouch - daughter follow up. Who were the other people in the hospital waiting room? I couldn't decide if they were family members of another patient, and got run over by a platoon of fire fighters, or if they were people from "the block", there concerned for the baby. The doctor's face was so expressive when he came out - that actor nailed it with his three lines. He saw all of the fire fighters and was like "ohshit, i have to break all of their hearts."

^^^^Agree on all counts! I had this thought last night - I got very excited when I remembered MS was on, and then was indifferent for TGW. I just absolutely love the family dynamic. Everyone seems so easy with each other. Love the silly string tradition. Stevie still needs to get taken down a peg. The "she's 16 now, you should tell her" made me angry because that's up to the parents and she put her dad on the spot. (Altho I don't disagree that "Noodle" figured it out on her own.) Bess will carry the death of Javani (sp?) with her for a long time - she will for sure feel responsibility (not that they were aiming for him, since he was high enough to be a target in his own right) because she couldn't get word of the coup to him earlier.

well that took a turn I didn't see coming!!! I thought AOL was great at the end looking through the pix. Grover and Chin didn't wonder where Steve was all morning when he didn't come to work?? Danno's spidey sense would have kicked in immediately.

^^^ DEVASTATED.

Yes, sorry, I wasn't clear. I always thought the secret was "Mike didn't go to law school and took the bar for other people and isn't a lawyer." Now I'm hearing them constantly say only "Mike didn't go to law school." As if that is the only transgression. So have they retconned the original sin, so to speak, to make it more manageable and palatable to viewers? "Mike may have not gone to law school, but he really is licensed to be an attorney."

Can I clarify - or ask for clarification - I didn't interpret Derek leaving November 14 equaling her not having SEEN him since November 14. I just interpreted that as the day he moved cross-country. This whole time he's been gone I haven't inferred that they haven't seen each other since that date, just that she's blown off the two weekends they've shown (hotel weekend and last night.) Maybe I'm naive, or maybe they flat out referenced it and I missed it, but I always assumed they saw each other at the holidays (off camera) and he's been to visit the kids. if not, then that's a huge character assassination for Derek.

ME THREE! Absolutely think the judge has a nefarious ulterior motive. naturally, my DVR crapped out just as Dembe turned to Red and said "Raymond, you must tell her the truth. You..." What did he say, please? And she mentioned the dog!!! Wasn't she entitled to legal representation during the chambers discussion? I cackled at Red' discourse on having to go to the cockfight. HA!

I noticed in the last several episodes, they said the secret was "Mike didn't go to law school." I feel like that is significantly different than "Mike isn't a lawyer." Which is how I took the first several seasons - everyone (Harvey, Mike, Donna, then Jessica) was knowingly committing fraud and putting their clients' lives at risk because if found out, all of the settlements, etc.would be thrown out. (I did often question why i watched the damn - excuse me - GODdamn show). So are the writers ret-conning Mike as someone who didn't go to law school but passed the bar? Which dramatically limits PSL liability? I mean, they still committed fraud if they advertised that Mike was a Harvard grad, and Mike (hacker) broke into the database, but overall their clients would not be at risk????????????? Am i thinking about this too much?

This made me laugh right out loud!! I like the call that "the V that makes girls stupid."

God bless Sark.

I'm moving my reply to Tom thread. I thought (and i admit to not necessarily paying close attention) that Tom worked for Berlin, with some unkown end game on behalf of Berlin and the daughter he thought Red had killed. When they acknowledged they knew each other, I just assumed it was because Red knows everyone and had run into him during his shady past. I'm guessing Berlin sent him to marry Liz in a long con to get to Red....?
