sinnerforhire October 6, 2015 Share October 6, 2015 My best friend growing up used a wheelchair and it wasn't really a Big Thing at all, so I guess it must be different if you get injured later in life versus being born that way? Because my friend was not the least bit self-pitying or resentful like Bobby is in this episode. Everything about this episode bugs me and I'm glad you guys were on the same wavelength. I know people in real life do actually act like that, but I think the writers did real disabled people a disservice by not having anybody call the Walshes out on their condescension. This episode is so tone-deaf it's painful. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32609-s02e11-leading-from-the-heart/#findComment-1574404

Halo October 6, 2015 Share October 6, 2015 I will cosign Brinda's outfit choice, and I also think it's a magnifying glass, maybe to indicate her super sleuthing/spying this episode.

Narla October 6, 2015 Share October 6, 2015 Oh my God -- I had forgotten about harmony balls, but I also had at *least* one and it was also a bas-relief earth. (I've gathered from things you'd said that, at least in your later teen years, we were in the roughly the same area of the country... I'm positive I bought it at a festival of some kind.) I also thought it looked a bit like a magnifying glass -- it doesn't make my top ten of Mortifying Things We Wore in the 90s.

cassandle October 6, 2015 Share October 6, 2015 Count me in for having a harmony ball that my sister got me from a new age store (along with a medicine bag with healing rocks inside). Although I called it a fairy ball--not sure which name is worse. I'm pretty sure Bo Duke used that, "If you weren't my cousin" line to Daisy in an early episode of Dukes of Hazzard too.

MostlyC October 7, 2015 Share October 7, 2015 I unabashedly loved this episode. I think it was one of my favorites from season 2. I like Kelly and the unfair assumptions about her "sluttiness" but flirting with him. And Bobby was pretty cute. And then he grew up to be drug dealer a few seasons later. Talk about a change in "type." Although at that point she was all Coke Addled Kelly, so I suppose it works in a weird kind of way. The episode itself was heavy handed, but still I liked it. Kelly riding like a ralph lauren commercial- and Brenden flopping about- was great. And hey- Emily Valentine!- you're back. I wonder if she and Brandon are already sleeping together. I forgot about the whole driver's test subplot. Thanks, recap, for making me relive the horror. ;) Great podcast!

FozzyBear October 14, 2015 Share October 14, 2015 Watching the early seasons along with the podcast I'd kind of forgotten that Kelly used to be awesome. So much of my impression is of the prissy little old lady she grew into during the later college and post grad episodes. My memory of Kelly after about S5 or S6 was that she was literally always complaining about something someone was doing that was none of her fucking business anyway. In the early episodes she's still fun and spunky. I wish that Kelly had stuck around. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32609-s02e11-leading-from-the-heart/#findComment-1599733
