Given Billie’s knowledge of music history, her reaction to Eminem’s performance could be because she had no idea who that old man was. Old man? Lol. Well I guess to her he is. But yeah he getting close to 50. I haven’t watched Parasite yet. I want to believe it’s some kind of masterpiece but I just can’t take Hollywood seriously anymore I feel there is some kind of agenda or story arc. “First film to win in a foreign language.” “First film to win both international and best picture.” “Look how accepting we are”....it just doesn’t feel natural. Also reading the plot it seems this movie has a social agenda also.

I’m thinking it could be since she made a reference to her age being 33. Better age to become pregnant. Sophie is or will be 40. Just another perspective. He might propose to Madison only because he got her pregnant but in the end who knows if it will work out.

Did anyone watch Friends who Kill? I’m watching it now and there was a scene where the friend asks the main character where her mother is, she said working late but it’s 8 so she should be home soon. Then in the next scene the friend goes up to the bedroom and the mom is there, like she’s been home, then comes downstairs and asks them if they want dinner. When did she get home? Also the evil friend is upstairs and over hears the other girls talking. Her hair is up in like a partial braid (in that scene and scenes before) when she walks down stairs right after she overhears then but pretends not to, her hair is down. Then cut to next scene of them eating. Her hair is up again. The continuity of these movies are bad.

Did anyone watch this? I don’t know if I can continue. I guess I wasn’t completely paying attention because I didn’t get the ending when Bill went into the house and the guy knew him? Or was he just delusional? I love Stephen Dorff and find him attractive and a good actor. He was great on True Detective and I was so happy that he got such a high profile gig on HBO and now a new show on a Fox but this show could be a lot better. Also the camera angles are sometimes not flattering to him or anyone on this show.

The young fire fighter romance is so cliche. As soon as she said they weren’t going to hook up again.....I knew they would later have an argument that would end with another hook up. Come on writers of these shows, get more creative Also the feud with the women at 51 and the woman at 20 is just stupid. Are they in high school?

And why did Abrams show up at the hospital with his luggage and Hawaiian shirt? Does he live there?

Toby loves Kate but can he really be that physically attracted to her? I’m curious to know what Kara looks like. I am kind of past Rebecca and Jack also but I like Milo so I don’t mind it that much and I’m sure he is under contract with the show where they have to keep his character substantial. I found the John Legend thing a bit cheesy. I mean would he really do that? It felt like an episode of the Bachelor. And what are the odds you would meet the one celebrity you wanted to sleep with and that he would be into you also. Lol.

I agree. Also it doesn’t seem they age Mandy Moore much in the 90’s. When the kids are in HS she is supposed to be in her mid late 40’s but she looks similar to when she first met Jack. Not everyone looks that old at 45 but there is usually a definite difference from your 20’s My father has dementia and had trouble drawing a clock when getting his tests. It’s been a few years and he is still pretty much himself. Little changes in temperament and memory but nothing that noticeable. In the flash forward it did show it progressed pretty quickly but then again we don’t know if she has Alzheimer’s/Dementia or maybe something else going on.

It’s bad. If I didn’t find Stephen Dorff so attractive, I wouldn’t be watching.

Maybe I’m in the minority but Michelle Williams comes off as self righteous and phony.

Nice to find a few others who find him attractive. So many people don’t seem to know who he is.

I wanted to like it. I’ve always found Stephen Dorff to be an underrated actor and also attractive. And while a little rough around the edges now, I still find him sexy. I will give it another chance because of him. True Detective seemed to be somewhat of a comeback for him....but this was so far a disappointment. I thought he was decent but the show just seemed to be a mess.

I rarely tear up in movies but Adam Driver almost made me a few times. Can’t say I loved the movie though. I felt in the beginning it tried to hard with too much dialogue. Sometimes less is more. But the last maybe 45 minutes seemed to mesh better. I thought Scarlett Johansson’s character was selfish. Maybe without children it would be a different story. But she wasn’t abused and she had a decent life. You work on the marriage for the sake of your children.

April is so unlikable. She is angry and arguing with Choi (or someone else) in ever episode. Or giving a displeased look. She couldn’t just explain to Choi what was going on? Talk about other options? Adoption? A dog? Decide not to have kids? Not on this show.

I guess I’m in the minority because I don’t like Amelia. Her over the top sarcastic talking and facial expressions. And when she is emotional like yesterday. I don’t believe her. The dialogue and the way she delivers it is contrived.

Why is Meredith so mean to Helm? How did Jo figure out Carly was diabetic because she was eating almonds? People who aren’t diabetic eat almonds all the time also. I was annoyed with the sisters talk. It’s so heavily scripted it comes off as fake. Who talks about how they don’t know their significant other by saying “I don’t know if he likes breakfast for dinner, or his favorite color”. Why not ask him? It’s just “writers trying to be clever” contrived banter. And Bailey’s freak out monologues are annoying. “I’ve got mad skills”. Ugh. On a shallow note, Meredith looked so skinny yet frumpy pacing around the waiting room. Sometimes I think she looks pretty, like when her hair is down and she is happy and smiling, but not yesterday.

Every word coming out of the christian people was a stupid cliche. There was nothing realistic about it. Not saying they don´t have these views about abortion but they just don´t sound like this. And it was much too over the top, even for the most zealous pro-lifers. I know you should never say never but seriously, I´m willing to say that they would never talk like this especially not "fundamentalists". Well, maybe some nutters from a crazy cult but not anyone who goes to church every sunday and reads and believes the Bible. Those people are usually anything but dumb and silly, they would handle this type of situation a lot differently. But the makers of this show just can´t help themselves, the portrayal of christian people must be oozing with prejudices and spitefulness and I´m so sick of it. Why can´t they make the cases believable and interesting, like something that would actually happen? Every week for years it´s always something so farfetched and dumb. This show is such a politically correct joke, I have hate watched it for a few years but even that is becoming too painful for me. I agree. I’m pro choice and not religious at all. Nor do I even feel comfortable around it, but I hate the agenda of the way the media portrays religious people. They also make it seem that parents are willing to abandon or send their children away over abortion, homosexuality etc....I’m sure it happens but in extreme cases.

Bailey said something about going through menopause at a young age. So I’m assuming she plays a character younger than she is. As does Meredith and I’m assuming Teddy and others as well. I wish I could like Amelia but it is so annoying how she can’t say lines without a sarcastic tone. Emphasizing certain letters and syllables. The only time she talks normal is with patients.

Ugh to when Halstead finds the crazy guy destroying the specimens and tells him wait there while he starts to call someone. Straight out of a Lifetime movie like “I know what you did and your not going to get away with it!” Turn your back to call something or walk out and get hit in the head with a lamp or someone along those lines. So cliche and stupid.

Is Meredith gorgeous? I mean I think she has a pretty smile and sometimes looks better than other time but I don’t think she is a beauty and doesn’t have much of a figure. That’s just my opinion. Yes and she does seem a lot older but I think she plays a character much younger then she is.

I stress eat and exercise. Probably why I’m about 40 lbs overweight as opposed to 100 lbs overweight (exercise counter acts the eating a bit) Having a baby at Kate’s weight and age you would think it would have caused some kind of kidney problems and diabetes. I can’t remember if they mentioned her fate in the time jump season finale? I can’t imagine the character or the actress living much past her 50’s at her weight. Maybe Toby’s weight loss will motivate her. If she continues to stress eat at least start walking 30 minutes a day.

It was disturbing. But I wish they explained a little more in the end also. I liked that the woman said to her that not all Mormons are like her parents and the people who abused her. I don’t like the stereo type that all Christians hate the LGBTQ community because in most cases it isn’t true.

Shut up Michelle Williams.

Can Patricia Arquette ever give a speech without something political?

Maybe just me but the speech of not wearing underwear and having to wash the seat was not funny.
