  1. When Miss Higgins was first introduced she was so stern and inflexible.  Her character has grown and changed so much since then.  Now she is a beaming grandma with the warmest smile.  She's one of my fav characters, especially when she and Phyllis are together.  My heart broke for her when she had so little time with her son when they clearly came to adore each other quickly.  First and last breath.

  2. I love how everyone in his circle, even Osip, helped cover up Alexander's escape to the hospital.  This was my favorite thing about the story - how a family was created around him when he thought he had lost everything.  It's appropriate they were watching IAWL, Alexander is George Bailey.

    I just finished the series and am a blubbering mess! This was so well done and stuck to the book pretty well. So happy this beautiful family made it against the odds. 

    I agree. I cried my eyes out too. The reunions and the photos at the end?  Pass the Kleenex!  Very well done. (And I could finally tell who was who and married to who.)

    Sunny kept repeating that "she murdered her mother"

    This from the woman who would help her own kid cover up a murder.

    My son works at UCLA.  He said the protesters are gone. They either got arrested or went home.

  5. I would be interested to know how long Angie and Danny had to wait for their crew. 10 minutes?  Half an hour?  We know 2 or 3 other teams passed them while they waited but it could have all happened in a short time.  I still think they could have made up time to finish ahead of Rod and Leticia is they hadn’t been so concerned with how the cage looked.

    Id also like to know why the producers rented all those tiny jeeps instead of cars that could accommodate the racers and crew.

    Some racers scored more points off the street tennis players hitting out of bounds than from good shots of their own.  The street players had to be slower and more gentle than they were used to.

    i don’t know why somebody didn’t whisper to Tiffany to play her idol. It would have been a win win..her idol would be gone, and so would Q.

    YES!  I don't understand why no one considered fooling Tiff into playing her idol but voting out Q.  There are other ways to flush an idol without voting the holder out.

    I had to miss the whole Applebees/tantrum bruhaha but I don't care enough to go back and watch it today.

  7. Danny and Mom were right back in it at the fish trap challenge.  All they had to do was show a little hustle instead of taking their time trying to make it look pretty.  (Because you all know crabs choose a pretty trap over an ugly one.)  It's their own fault they were eliminated.

    Good work by the Amazing Editors to juxtapose Vinnie and Amber sniping at each other and Rod and Leticia being all supportive and loving.  Even the editors hate V&A.  

    Maybe it's a little boring that Ricky and Cesar keep winning (or showing up second), but it's refreshing to see a team perform so consistently well with so little drama.  (Or are all the other teams just that bad?)  I hope after such a strong race they will win.  They've certainly earned it.

    They had first place at their fingertips had they just done Seaweed Clearing.

    I'm not sure.  Juan and Shane were gassed by the time they finished.  (Yes, they pushed extra hard to catch up.)  I'm not sure Y&M could have pushed that wheel barrow several times through the sand quicker than they built the trap.

    . I've had such a hard time figuring out who is good and who isn't because I can't focus on any of them!

    Yes!  Watching an edited video doesn’t allow us to see what they can do. We need to see live performances.   Plus the editing closes in on the dancers and often doesn’t give us a complete picture of their performances. It’s so disappointing.

    Making the judges the stars of the show is what reality shows do.  I wish they'd all just f.o

    I’ve quit watching all talent shows except this one exactly for this reason. The moment the judges become more important than the contestants I lose interest.

    I originally figured Madison and Easton would be the final 2, but considering how scripted this is I’m thinking they’ll be pushing the Dakayla/Anthony romance for F2.

    What the hell was with the turnips? That was supposed to be uplifting?

    I hope there were several hundred more kids in the other room that wanted to carve turnips because that was a hella big pile of root vegetables.

    Please, writers, send Trixie to NY with Matthew. I’m sick of their issues.

    Alyssa looks ridiculous when they put her in frilly pink/pastel dresses. I half expect to see white anklets and black patent leather maryjanes on her feet like at  kindergarten birthday parties back in the day.

    Hee!  That’s exactly what she looks like!  (I do think she looks adorable… but not like a serious journalist.)

    I suppose when you are married to a doc you can get any Rx you want.

  12. Should be an interesting week for me.

    Mon: I bought tix to see Gaffigan in the fall.

    Tues: I like John Leguizamo.

    Wed: Like Whoopi I lost my only brother so I’d like to hear what she has to say.

    Thurs: I’m sure I read the book but I can’t remember it.

    Fri: Is this a reimagining of FotB?

     While I don't consider the mother in that commercial to be as inattentive to her offspring as a sea turtle, I just wish the kid would pipe up, 'Fine, Mom. Enjoy the cat as long as you like but remember the cat won't be picking  your nursing home!'

    But the cat will get the summer home and the kid will end up with a train set.
