No new episode this week; this airs March 13th.

So sorry, Canadians. Just know most Americans do not agree with trying to make enemies out of our best neighbors. (And for what? Greed? Pride?? This is all so stupid....) Do what y'all gotta do with the boycotts; but I know it will have some impact on U.S. retail. I work in retail, and even though my town is about 3 hours from the Canadian border, we get lots of Canadian tourists passing through our shopping districts.

You're not the only one. But one of her daughters has shown up at least twice before. Once this season, and at least one time in Season 1.

I Want You Back (2022) I had heard of it, but hadn't watched it until recently. Didn't realize it was a streaming release (Amazon). I liked it! I liked that there wasn't really a villain, or the usual 'this character is obviously a jerk, why were they together in the first place'. (Well, I guess the leads do some questionable acts, but that's the premise.) All the mains had their funny moments. There wasn't anything (IMO) that was too ridiculous that it took me out of the movie. I don't know if I'd call them cameos, exactly, but there were a couple of scenes with two actors who I didn't know were in this, and it was kind of a surprise (to me at least). Only nitpick for me is that there were at least two instances where I was wondering 'Where/when did this character get this information?' And I think they may have been a few scenes that didn't make the final cut. But it wasn't major plot holes. Anyway, attractive, funny cast, no jerks, not too raunchy; would recommend!

Next time put a description, because it's already been taken down.

I'd have to re-watch for the details, but there was an explanation about the camel milk. And no, I don't think the boy was supposed to be autistic.

Somehow I didn't set this one to record, so I only saw the last 20 or so minutes. Anything important happen in the first half?

Yeah, I think I was digging the side stories more than the main case. Although I did like Robyn and Dante working together. I'm not sure where they're heading with Vi and Curtis, but I like that the complications with their relationship seems natural, and not manufactured. I did like Dee and Mel's sweaters, but no real fashion highlights for me.

Okay, it's been 4 episodes. Putting this in the '"Watch" While I Do Something Else' category. I guess it wasn't actually the main story, but the show just kinda brushed aside the fact that a patient died. I wasn't even clear about what they were doing surgery for? Ingrid (the neurologist, right?) is now my most hated character on the show. LOL - I guess the deal to get Randall Park to be Moriarty was that he only shows up twice a season! Works for me, though. (Not that I dislike Randall; but he seems miscast.)

soaking = mormon "not really sex cause we're just putting the p into the v and not moving around" sex I... have questions. And I do NOT want the answers.

Even if it is Jamie, he's being SUPER shady, and I'm going to need at least one person from M&A to find out what's up with him, and soon. Ethan as Gabi's therapist? That seems like a very bad idea, but I guess this show always needs more drama. I wasn't clear on the timeline of what happened to the kidnapping victim. Might have to re-watch. I'm actually interested in seeing Lacey and Zeke together, so I hope they don't mess that up, since they seem to be starting something with them. However, so far this show doesn't have a good track record with romances. If Christian really is dead (it seems so), it's very weird that there was hardly any lead up or follow up to that; not to mention that it all happened offscreen. Did the writers change their minds about him being a part of this season's story? Did the actor become unavailable? I thought that they were going to use Christian to show more about why Sir is the way he is.

When Sasha discovers a link between her current patient, who has advanced cancers and distinctive lesions on his tongue indicative of Cowden syndrome, and a cadaver she dissected during medical school, the team traces the case to Amish country. Airdate: March 2, 2025

McCall is asked to help a local family that lost their life savings in a suspicious fire. Also, Mel opens up to her parents about her PTSD. Airdate: March 2, 2025

First promo for the new season:

I haven't watched the episode yet; but STILL no positive ID?? Come on!! Because, yes, if it is really Jamie, there's no need to drag it out so long.

A 911 call tips M&A off to a young woman who has gone missing after a date. Lacey considers starting a new relationship. Sir takes drastic measures to capture Gabi's attention. Margaret and Gabi investigate potential suspects in Jamie's kidnapping. Airdate: February 27, 2025

This is just my guess; but I think it's because the show is based on a non-fiction book. I don't think it's necessary, but apparently the producers and lawyers disagree.

When he fainted/fell, he cut his head; they showed him getting stitches. Wouldn't there be a bandage over that, even just until a proper scab forms?? I know there's no bandage because that's not sexy enough for TV; but they made a point to show he was injured, so why not just go all the way with it? But it's just a nitpick.

That was where I thought they were going as well; it would have been more interesting.

Again, they are eventually going to have start taking more personnel with them on that plane, since they always seem to need backup when confronting the escapees. And again; even if they don't know exactly who got out, they should still have a list of potential escapees (but I know they don't want state an actual number to keep things openended). Ugh - I was NOT feeling them playing up the Bex/Hot Warden relationship. Sorry, show, not gonna 'ship' her with the guy who set a guy on fire. Still not interested in the conspiracy angle.

When Kylie and Marisa find evidence that a tech billionaire may be a serial killer, Alec quickly determines the only way to prove the killer's guilt is for Alec to extract a confession, which leads into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Airdate: February 25, 2025

The fashion theme this episode was: funky sweaters! I liked Robyn and Dee's; and Harry's was just funny. The neighbor was being out of line, but otherwise, I didn't have much problems with the 3 plots. Good casting for Dante's brother. Speaking of family; I think we've seen family members of everyone except Harry? I know he was pretending to be dead for a while, but does he have any relatives?

It bothered me that Watson had a head injury but didn't have a bandage. So, were we supposed to believe Watson's jerky behavior toward his soon-to-be-ex was because of the pills? I was unclear on that. Either way, I don't know why they are doing this subplot that makes him look bad. Still haven't warmed to the other doctors. Although, I might be interested in hearing more about this woman who decided to date her ex's twin -- BOLD. Case of the week was interesting; glad that their investigation could free the mother. I might keep watching, but it'll be as background noise.

McCall and the team search for a missing pregnant woman whose baby may be in danger. Meanwhile, Dante meets his brother James for the first time. Airdate: February 23, 2025

"DNA was 'inconclusive'" -- Of course. The only reason to draw this out is for TV drama purposes, and it's annoying. There's a story there, whether it's really Jamie or not, so I wish they'd just reveal who it is. Two episodes is enough time to be vague. I hope next episode we get a definite answer. Either way, 'Jamie' is shady. How old is he supposed to be again? Very weird that Christian is just dead offscreen suddenly, when we haven't seen him for a while. But seeing as how this is TV and we didn't see a body, I'm a bit skeptical. This whole accomplice subplot has been choppy. Now that Sir is in jail, the dyanamic should be different from now on between him and Gabi. I expect Sir will keep trying to connect to Gabi, but I really hope it stays a one-way street. Gabi and the team don't need him.
