Agree peeling, Diane rocks. Great character and actor.

TracyK · 12/03/2012 14:02

What about Eli and Diane???

PeelingmyselfofftheCeiling · 12/03/2012 15:42

She's awesome isn't she Dozer, and her whole role us about brains and power, not youth, beauty or sex appeal (even though I'd kill to look like that at her age!). Must be fantastic to get s role like that as more mature actress. Same for Alicia to some extend, although they gave her a sex kitten side at the end of series 2, eventually!

Italiangreyhound · 17/03/2012 00:55

Oh wow, last night's episode was a real scare and totally hard to watch! Can't believe Canning looked in her brief case!!!

Italiangreyhound · 17/03/2012 01:50

Worst bit was the Grace storyline. Why didn't Kalinda tell Alisha she had found Grace???

Can't believe they have surrounded Cary with 'ethnic' women, having made it clear he likes them! Or is it really just Kalinda he likes.

YouChangeWithTheWeather · 17/03/2012 08:27

Did Will not see Peter with Alicia then?
I thought this week's was so much better. Peter stopped being a twat. Will had more than one facial expression. The tension with Eli, Diane was super cool. Alicia acted! And didn't win her case. Kalinda got her sleuthing mojo back (although I can't work out if she knows Cary's gf is playing her)

I presume Kalinda didn't let Alicia know she found Grace was to do with (not) making up to her for sleeping with Peter.

Italiangreyhound · 17/03/2012 17:17

Yes YouChangeWithTheWeather Will saw Peter and Alisha with Grace - not sure if he saw all three of them hugging -but it could all have been a harmless hug of relief if he did see it. When he arrived it was just Alisha and Grace hugging and Peter standing by the side.

Peter has gone up in my estimation!

I don't think Will would necessarily think any of this signals that Peter and Alisha were going to get back together but I personally think they will get back together. I think Will thought he was going to make more of a commitment to Alisha but she dumped him, in the nicest possible way.

Still not sure why Kalinda kept quiet. Not logical and not normal. The first thing you would do (I would imagine in that situation) would be to get on the phone and say 'I found her', or tell her to get on the phone and say 'I am safe' and it would be logical for it to come out that 'I'm in the car with Kalinda, she came and picked me up'. I guess it was to do with Kalinda thinking that it did not making up for sleeping with Alisha's hubby but frankly finding a lost child does kind of make up for sleeping with hubby, if you see what I mean! At least in my book!

I must admit I could hardly watch this episode it was so hard to watch!

What I thought was very interesting was that Will let Diane think that he had broken up with Alisha but it was her who broke up with Will. I guess Will wants that chip in his back pocket to bargain with Diane about BUT I am guessing one day Diane will find out! I also think now if Alisha lets Peter back in then the space is clear fro Peter to run for big government or whatever he is planning!!

I love this programme!

YouChangeWithTheWeather · 17/03/2012 18:35

It was in Will's best interests to let Diane think that - so even in his moment of pain, he had his business hat on.

I thought he said to Kalinda that when he saw Alicia with Grace, he thought he could "do" that commitment? i.e. he hadn't seen Peter with them.

And you put it much better re Kalinda/Grace - it did not make up for it Wink

Italiangreyhound · 18/03/2012 00:09

Thanks YouChangeWithTheWeather.

I feel a bit sorry for Kalinda as in all fairness although she did know Peter was married when she had a fling with him (or perhaps just one 'night') she was not actually friends with Alisha at the time!

Who is your favourite character/story line? Sorry I have no one else to talk about this programme with - as my sis, friends, Mum and Hubby don't watch it!

Curlylox · 18/03/2012 20:49

I have just got into this and am loving it, but not as much as Greys Anatomy Smile. Would very much like to watch the 1st and 2nd series without having to purchase the dvd box set, any ideas please?

Italiangreyhound · 18/03/2012 20:54

Try the library, they often have boxed sets and it costs just a few quid to rent. It's great you can see them all in a sitting (well three or four sittings instead of spread over 12 weeks or whatever!

If they don't have it in then you could request.

I have not tried with this prog but did with Cold Feet from library.

Ask me any questions, I can probably tell you anything I love the show so much!!!

weedoll · 19/03/2012 22:59

Just watched the latest episode on sky+ and oh my word!!!! What an episode! Actually felt that heartbroken to the pit of my stomach when Alisha walked away from Wills office, crying!Sad I need to get out more lol! But the suspense in building up their relationship went on for soooo long when they finally got together I was jumping for joy.
The Kalinda love triangle was quite uncomfortable viewing, is Cary's gf out of her depth? Is she the player or being played? No one gets one over Kalinda!

HalleLouja · 20/03/2012 06:49

I have had a thing for Cary since season 2. He is hot.

Italiangreyhound · 20/03/2012 22:21

weedoll agree, no one beats Kalinda at being sexy and sultry! I reckon the next thing will be Cary and Kalinda behind gf back! Will they won't they!

PeelingmyselfofftheCeiling · 22/03/2012 22:00

Oooh, love Alicia smacking Carey down to size tonight!

cybbo · 22/03/2012 22:03

Twas a good one tonight

Not too much Will

HalleLouja · 23/03/2012 08:33

Will need to watch later. DH who hasn't really watched it thinks its not all that. I have explained to him how fab it is and he doesn't believe me.

I don't think Kalinda and Cary will get together this series but could be wrong.

I think every office needs an Eli though.

valiumredhead · 23/03/2012 09:13

Good one last night!

Bue · 23/03/2012 10:33

Such a great episode last night. The whole prep school thing was kind of weird, but I loved Alicia storming into Cary's office. Ooh, and Wendy Scott Carr! That woman is so calculating!! I wish she had more than one tone of voice though. She sounds like she's on life support. Am also looking forward to seeing where the Diane-Alicia mentorship thing goes. God I love Diane.

Does it bother anyone else that Alicia and Owen don't look a thing alike? I have to believe they're adopted as there's no way they were spawned from the same parents Grin

YouChangeWithTheWeather · 23/03/2012 13:53

Oh oh oh Grin

What was Peter on? He passed the line from being masterful to being a dick.

Will got some of his omph back.

WSC is a weasel

lostboysfallin · 23/03/2012 14:36

Peter's gone too far this time, that will come back to haunt him

YouChangeWithTheWeather · 23/03/2012 20:19

It just seemed rather unnecessary as well as out of character.

lostboysfallin · 23/03/2012 20:40

yeah, i think it's probably part of the new plot line, to investigate him.
He has gone out of his way to do everything by the book and then does something so blatantly abusive of his power.

HalleLouja · 23/03/2012 20:44

He was an arse. Seemed not like him at all.

weedoll · 23/03/2012 21:46

Funny I didn't think it was totally out of character for Peter think he always had it in him but was trying to be 'clean'.
Not sure who pointed out Kalinda's accent but, seriously?! It's awful!!! Still
