AnnieF December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 L&b, you've got a few seasons to go before Mark Shepard shows up. Both leads have some pretty serious chops as actors, but the show doesn't really let them go there in the first season. It gets better. Then it gets worse, but IMO you've quite a lot that's mostly good road ahead. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1851-small-talk-the-library/page/49/#findComment-671771
Endeavour December 23, 2014 Share December 23, 2014 Been away from the forum for a few days and am catching up. I have finally de-stressed! (now with hyphen) Last week was rough, but I'm feeling a lot better now. Happy birthday cko! Erratic - I am sending extra vibes your way and am sure you will do great. I hope everyone who is not feeling well is better soon. LnB - does your mom already have long-term insurance and it's now a matter of her meeting the requirements to be covered? I hope everything works out so she can get the assisance she needs. As for tv shows, I've got The Librarians and Arrow already on my list and I'm now adding Black Mirror. Is that one finished or ongoing? I started watching The Affair which I didn't think I would, but it's not bad and I'm interested in seeing how this season ends. I think I'm 2 eps behind. I've watched Supernatural from the beginning and think it's fun. It can get a little too gross for me at times and I agree there have been dips in quality but there's a lot of humor and I still enjoy watching it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1851-small-talk-the-library/page/49/#findComment-671971
Loandbehold December 23, 2014 Share December 23, 2014 Glad you've been able to de-stress Endeavor. Mom has a really good long term care policy, if she can meet the requirements. Plans today usually go for 3 to 5 years. Hers has no limit on years. I thought this past episode of The Librarians was so much fun for 55 minutes. The last 5 were too saccharine-sweet for me. But watching Bruce Campbell and Matt Frewer chomp huge chunks of scenery was great. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1851-small-talk-the-library/page/49/#findComment-672065
Erratic December 23, 2014 Share December 23, 2014 Vibes and love to all of you! Today went fine. The only iffy moment was when she was reading my response to which drugs I have done. I admitted to having smoked pot, she misread the line I had checked off and asked me when I did cocaine and crack. She might have even looked a little concerned. I replied, "Ah yes, that sweet, sweet crack!", and thankfully we both laughed. Her, a little more cautiously than me initially. Other questions were easier. And a little boring. Nothing as scandalous as I was expecting, so yay. One more home study visit on Sunday, then we wait for our approval hopefully. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1851-small-talk-the-library/page/49/#findComment-672357
Harvester December 23, 2014 Share December 23, 2014 (edited) I have my fingers crossed for you, Erratic! Watching The Librarians, I keep thinking Noah Wyle is doing an imitation of David Tennant's Doctor and the redhead is very similar to Jayma Mays. Holy cow, that Minotaur is terrible! I could make a better costume! It looks like that monster muppet.

romantic idiot December 23, 2014 Share December 23, 2014 Heh - yeah that was pretty bad. But the episode itself was a huge improvement on the previous two, for me. i'm torn about the Christmas one. It was fun, but I'm going to struggle liking Baird, I think, and there was too much of her. Still, overall, I"m happier than I was 2 weeks ago.

Black Mirror is definitely less of a commitment, it's only had 6 episodes (2 seasons of 3 episodes each) and one Christmas special. There's no news on it being renewed for Season 3 yet, or whether it will be, but it seems to be a safe bet.

Happy Christmas Eve and Hannukah to those in North America. And to cover my bases: Happy Christmakuh, and Happy Festivus (for the rest of us). Congrats on the first interview being over with erratic. How awesome that it went so well. I've only seen the first two episodes of the librarian (Sniffle Excalibur). I know it's kind of hokey, but I am enjoying the Frank Capra-ness of it. And Christian Kane. AND yes, even Noah Wyle's slightly off kilter I wanna be a kind of Doctor Who. When I get home, the santa episode! I miss Jane Curtain and Bob Newheart, though.

Valny December 29, 2014 Share December 29, 2014 What else did everyone get for Christmas,etc.....? Spill! Any fun stuff? Went to lunch today with my dad and when we got home about 2:30, found ourselves locked out of the house. I won't go into who was to blame(Dad!) but long story short, we waited about almost two and a half hours for the locksmith to get to the house. I'm just glad we found someone who made house calls on a Sunday! My BFF actually found the phone number for me, so she helped a lot. I suppose maybe we could have went to the firehouse or get a police person to come by but luckily didn't have to. After waiting about for the guy for over two hours, it took the locksmith under 10 seconds to pick the lock. His first pick didn't work, so he tried another and voila! His pick was so little and basic looking! It was like a burglar in the movies. Anyway, that lunch turned out expensive since it cost $135 to get into the house!

But I would be too timid to be either a burglar or private investigator. Gifts? Aside from my marvelous SS food (crunching hazelnut crackers as I type), a girlfriend gave me a lovely pair of fingerless gloves. They are fleece lined and a beautiful dark grey.
