I’m really liking Lisa so far, so she’s likely to become the baddy of this season. It’s nice to see Lana Parrilla on my screen again.

This show started off promising but they are making the leads so dislikable and difficult to root for. Other Apple+ show have characters that make me want to root for and keep watching (which is why I enjoyed Ted Lasso and Shrinking so much). But Will and Sylvia? No thanks.

I think they are going to see how his surgery goes, or what the orthopedic says, before they say he’s out for 4-8 weeks.

I was thinking that it’s time for the usual yearly Mike Trout injury, and he then fractured his wrist. Poor guy can’t catch a break.

It’s still predominantly white, then 14% Hispanic and 8% Asian. I was in a predominantly white high school but my friend group was very diverse, so it makes sense that the minorities flock towards each other.

I also enjoyed Elemental and cried a few times.
No idea that one of Wade’s relatives was non-binary, but I think one of them said “they” instead of he or she so it makes sense. So much was going on in the scene where we saw Wade’s relatives that I’m sure most people would have missed it if it wasn’t for all the minority fussing.- 5

It will be fun to see Lacey and Scott play siblings again. I loved Party of Five.

Maybe he
Spoilerwent gray at a young age because he was so stressed out?
I wouldn’t have minded that alternative ending.

I hope you enjoy it. What I also liked was that there wasn’t a stupid misunderstanding, and it didn’t have the cliched “American looking like a bumbling idiot while trying to learn about Indian culture.” She embraced all of it.

I enjoyed Make Me a Match. It was different from the other Hallmark movies and the leads weren’t mean and nasty to each other. They also had nice chemistry and I liked the side characters (friends and parents). It was nice that the leads had decent side stories with their parents.

I know the USGA hate it, but fans (including me) are loving all the great shots and birdie/eagle tries. I hate watching the usual bogey fest of US Opens so this has been a treat. NBC coverage, however, continues to be atrocious. I don’t need to see the leaders practicing their putts when there are other players out there hitting quality shots.

Only one guy can get a win along with hitting a 443 foot MLB leading HR. Unreal.

So far happy with the leaders. Hope they keep it up this week.

The lead falls in love with an Indian Matchmaker’s son, so I don’t think both leads need to be Indian for the storyline to work. The guy is freaking hot (I couldn’t stop staring at him in Never Have I Ever) so I’m excited for that one.

Liking it so far, and from the next episode description, it’s about time that Charlie stops acting like a supportive husband because nobody would be supportive of how the two of them have been so far.
I got a kick the first episode about Sylvia and her friend whining and tired at 10pm when they were in that crowded bar. That is exactly how every single 40 year old mom I know acts. Give me some wine and a booth or chair any day over that standing and socializing nonsense.

The college counselor at high school told her to apply to safety schools. I doubt anyone could have persuaded Devi to think about what would happen if she didn't get into Princeton. I get why she was finally accepted, but in some ways, I wish the show had let that dream shatter and we had to see Devi figure out another place. Oh, well.
Shoot, you’re right that it was the counselor, but I could have sworn that Nalini told her to apply to other schools besides Princeton, then dropped the ball by not following up. I don’t know if it’s a first generation American thing since my parents also pushed me to get good grades, but were pretty hands off during college apps since they didn’t know the process and trusted that I knew what I was doing. Luckily I applied to zero Ivy schools since the California UC schools were good enough, and applied to multiple safety schools. The high school counselors at my school were useless.

Nalini did tell Devi to apply to other safety schools, but Devi threw a fit so Nalini backed off. I’m sure it was more than one conversation and she constantly nagged her about it, but she did her due diligence as a mother to try to convince her to apply to other schools besides Ivy.

Forgot how hilarious this show is. All the taxidermy animals at the wedding and staring at Justin cracked me up. Poor Riley.

Yes, we have all been around or have had friends like her- when the world revolves around only them and only their needs matter. Devi has really grown since the first season but she can still be very selfish. I’m glad she realized this and apologized to Fabiola for being a terrible friend.

I always thought that you needed to interview with an alumni for an Ivy college application, but you can opt out of it and won’t be penalized. I was waiting for Devi to have an interview, but maybe meeting with the admissions advisor during the college fair was enough for the writers.

Ben clearly said that he wanted to try dating Devi and seeing how they would work in a relationship. They’ve had feelings for each other for three years and never got a chance to be in a relationship, so I like how open ended their ending was. They didn’t get married or engaged. They were only an hour from each other on the east coast, so why not see how they’d mesh with their similar personalities?
They had one another’s backs through all the ups and downs in high school (Ben urging Devi to go to her dad’s spreading of ashes ceremony, him comforting her when he found out she didn’t get into any colleges, Devi convincing Ben to be himself to the Columbia rep). They both have the same passion when it comes to school.- 13

It seemed like it was done purposely since Fabiola and Addison didn’t have any drama, and they wanted to focus more on Fabiola’s school journey since they already covered her love life in the first three seasons:

Thanks for the suggestion. I liked Kaylee Bryant in Legacies, and now that some Hallmark Mysteries and Movies are on Peacock I wanted to try some.

I am liking it so far, except for the biker/Cisco stuff which I started ffing. Hope this is the last of those fools. Leave Cisco alone so he can be happy with Lorna.
I would be really annoyed if Lisa killed the millionaire, after all the crew did for her. I don’t get how she would reach the top of his head with a hammer since he’s much taller than her.
