I still dream about our parties (and lunches!) from the  80's and 90's....

😍😍😍🍸🍺🥂🥃

I worked for lobbyists in DC back then. Yeah, food and booze for all!

[Guest]

OMG ... does Discovery+ think its going to get my money with a doc about how innocent Jon and Patsy Ramsey are?

Fuck allllll the way off, Discovery +.

Thanks so much. He was on life support and went through 2 surgeries. Still on a ventilator which they are worried about damaging his lungs but brain appears to be healing. He just needs to start breathing on his own. Thanks for asking 🙂

I missed that your father is ill...I hope for a full recovery and for your sanity to hold up.

I am jealous...I want to retire. I just got a new job two weeks ago, everyone is nice but it’s fairly demanding and I’m exhausted all the time lol. My dad is in hospital too so I’m exhausted.

So sorry about your Dad.  Hope he recovers.

Funny....just showed a commercial for Dove underarm skin care......

Right? I'm living in terror that I'll have to go back to the office before I actually leave. I don't think I could face the commute again, plague or no plague. My boss and I were talking the other day and we were laughing about how I'd have to plan my own retirement party over Zoom, and I was all "dammit and I won't even get a big retirement party with cake and champagne like I always wanted!"

I'm with you. As much as I complain about working at home, now that I've got a retirement date, I cant see myself going back to campus, ever. They haven't asked about a virtual retirement party, which seems totally awkward. 

I do feel freer, I'm such a worker bee, sometimes now I'm like screw it its 3pm, its not like it matters anymore.

That Whitney show is brutal.  There's really not much redeeming there... I probably won't hang there.  I'm already hooked on snark three shows, and well. . . addiction runs in the family!!!! 

Whitney is awful and infuriating to watch. Such a selfish person. 

[Hellga]

She exceeded my expectations, but not Dr. Now's.  Let's see how he takes her 27-pound loss.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Month 1-618

Month 2-591, down 27 lbs.   

Yes, she needs portion control.    That's how the most successful ones did it.

Jon Benet.  Why don't they leave that little girl alone.  They don't know what happened to her but they do show after show after show.  It's disgusting.

That Ramsey girl murder was the impetus behind Toddlers and Tiaras. I wonder if they are dredging up that old case because TLC wants to resurrect T&T.

[Donut Bear]

No way is she walking 2 hours a day and only losing 27 pounds

With their megabillion dollar endowment fund, why not?

Meh, I worked at the Kennedy School, pretty much an ugly stepchild in the Harvard pecking order. We were pretty poor. You want megabucks, go to the B School.

I was pissed when I left my last job. I threw parties for everyone else (high turn over) and paid out of pocket for gift cards and food. I got a Zoom party but not even a virtual gift card. Assholes 😂 

I want tears! Hugs! People telling anecdotes about how wonderful I am and how much I'll be missed! 

[Suzywriter]

27 lbs...did she work so hard by waking up a half hour earlier?

He does! I re-watched a bunch of old Mel's Rock Pile SCTV skits on Sunday. Eugene Levy is a god.

Those SCTV comedians from Levy's era are comedy gods.  So funny, and such decent people, too.

Why can I understand Dr. Now better on the phone than when he is face to face with the patients?

Who won the weight poll? I was pretty close so I am invested this week on who won.

Is it just closest, or closest without going over? You were 3 over, I was 6 under. I wasn't really keeping track but I don't remember any closer guesses.

Unfortunately, I am not nearly as creative as Princess with the prizes. I have some mini Tootsie Pops left from Halloween I'll share...

[poeticlicensed]

What is up with these people? Have they never watched this show? You have to move to Houston. I have no tolerance for people who sign up for this then hem and haw about moving.

27 lbs! It must be crushing given how she thought she would exceed Dr Now's expectations. 

But when I saw the huge salad I knew she hadn't gotten a feel for portion sizes.

That's what i understand, but I expect that they will eventually show up on TLC,   I like my crime shows, but so far even Joe Kenda has failed to convince me.   I am afraid the new episodes of See No Evil will also be on it.   Sigh.......

They better not I love that show.

I think they had a T&T "where are they now" on recently.

It cracks me up every time I see it.   I bet the new crop of 1Ls will have a lesson on Zooming.   The legal practice has really changed since I was in school.

Another reason NOT to get Discovery Plus...

Dr. Pimple Popper!

I would like to watch Mike Rowe's show, but absolutely nothing else about D-Plus looks worth paying for..

I got a year of free Apple TV with my iPhone; I got it at the end of November and I have yet to watch anything on it.

Yes! "Decent" is an excellent description of those folks. Still one of the funniest shows ever. I'm sad I can't get the earlier, syndicated 30-minute episodes on DVD.

[String Theory]

For someone in therapy/under care of a psychiatrist, she certainly has a flat affect.  She's very difficult to read....

I am not sure if it's Price as Right rules or not. Maybe Princess is taking the night off. We will just have to wait and see.

[SunnyBeBe]

I wonder if the change of policy on moving to Houston came about due to covid.....but we don’t see masks....? 
 

Why can’t they read and measure?  It’s not about cutting back.  It’s about folllowing the plan.  It’s so frustrating.  

[umgoblue]

Pounders, please tell me when BACON was added to the diet?

[poeticlicensed]

Bacon is not on the Dr Now diet

[sainte-chapelle]

Do you need the bacon though?

[Hellga]

Yay for MEASURING food.  Finally.  Our perceptions are so skewed...  especially if we eat restaurant meals like these poundticipants often do.

[Snarkastikate]

Just started watching.  Is that a beard or a birthmark?  Because seriously what the hell is it?  Hubby looks like her son.  And from the rear she doesn't look like a pound over 400, so I was shocked to see her weight.  THEN I saw the low hanging tummy pooch.  

Yum.... bacon 🥓🥓🥓🥓

She doesn't even seem like a person anymore. Like she was an actual child, murdered, and yet I've seen her same, perfect made up picture most of my life she seems nothing more than that. Poor thing.

Fishin' Musician with John Candy.  The one with Joe Walsh was highlarious.

My hoarder mother has a bunch of them taped on VCR tapes.  We pull the "Jeopardy" episodes out every once in a while, as well as the one where Martin Short is Mr. Rogers and he boxes John Candy as Julia Child.  Funniest. Show. Ever.

Yeah, I think that's it. And it's not like these people are filmed in public places where masks would be required. 

Why is this show completely ignoring a pandemic?

Here come the excuses.. 9:20 and no surgery yet. Have we had a surgery yet this season?

That's the show I want to see.  I think it starts Sunday on CNN.  Tucci does Italy.

Holy cow, she has to shave more often than I do.
