I also feel sorry for Cary, Alicia and Diane are pissing all over his dream.

ClearlyMoo · 07/03/2015 19:23

Caught up today

Well it's all getting a bit silly isn't it! Moving back into the offices. And getting that old fart on board..

Elspeth was ace in that episode. I do love her randomness.

Agree with ARGH can't scroll up app about Scandal being fluff. It's good fluff tho haha. In the same way some days u would choose Wotsits over kettle chips!

Eli wasn't much I. That episode. I'm racing through Alan Cumming's Autobio after the recommendation of a PP. thank you it's fascinating!!

Agent Cooper lives on!

The Probation Officer is a bit stalkery. New hair do, hair colour, make up, smart clothes. Banishing love rival Kalinda. I think she's going to be Cary's nightmare.

OneInAMillionYou · 08/03/2015 21:52

So disappointed, not enjoying this series at all.
Cary bail storyline, meh

OneInAMillionYou · 08/03/2015 21:53

Not enough Eli
Too much Christianity with Grace

Did anyone see the final episode of Sky Artist Portrait of the Year where Alan Cumming's portrait was painted? It was really brilliant. He is such a fab actor.

On that note, does Eli wear eyeliner? Hmm

I was really wary of the direction the show would take with Alicia entering politics, but it's OK so far. I like that they are back in the LG offices. It's their spiritual home!

TheEagle · 10/03/2015 18:25

Just found out that Julianna Margulies wears a wig on the show!

OneInAMillionYou · 10/03/2015 21:02

No, a WIG?? It's a good one!

TheEagle · 10/03/2015 21:11

$10,000 worth of wig apparently, for that price it'd want to be good Grin

CanIKondo · 10/03/2015 21:46

I heard this too! Apparently it's because she naturally has curly hair, like in ER, but they wanted her to look more waspy. It's good isn't it?

TheEagle · 10/03/2015 21:51

It's a flipping brilliant wig. A friend posted an article about it on FB today.

Apparently the wig saves a lot of time for her because it would take an age to style her own hair the way she'd like it.

AesopsMables · 10/03/2015 22:05

A wig! I would never have guessed that one. Looks very natural.

Just caught up on this weeks - love Elspeth! "Call me maybe?"

Getting tired of Carey storyline now and have def noticed a change in Alicia's character, more ruthless.

Alicia does need a new love interest but I guess the whole Carey/Ky'Minger and Elspeth/Dale is enough bonking already Grin

ClearlyMoo · 11/03/2015 11:21

Of course! It makes sense. When I first watched TGW after years of ER fanhood I thought that her hair must be a nightmare to "tame"! Hot though I bet!

Sooo I read Alan Cumming's "Not My Father's Son" it was as Pp suggested "mind blowing". I've also subsequently watched his "Who do you think you are" - it's in You Tube.

I'm an even bigger Alan/Eli fan than before!

Travelledtheworld · 12/03/2015 21:14

Another cracking episode tonight.....

TheEagle · 13/03/2015 12:47

DS has just gone for his nap, can't wait to catch up with this episode!

Italiangreyhound · 14/03/2015 01:07

I think Cary is taking his bail all a bit flippantly! Can't imagine anyone who had had a week in prison would!

ClearlyMoo · 15/03/2015 20:04

Just caught up today (Mother's Day privileges!). Wow ok so things with Finn are progressing. Mona/Ramona is smarter than she looks.

I'm getting tired of Diane... she's so samey.

I worry about Bishop being Alicia's unravelling.

Hmmm

HalleLouja · 16/03/2015 06:58

I liked the intern's mum she was good. I am missing the variety of cases it seems to be Cary's case all the time. Which has its upsides. Grin

Finn and Alicia need to have some action with each other. Jonny is too pretty for my liking.

Poor Alicia with Eli and Jonny leaking the report to Castro. She is going to kick their arsed.

More importantly that wig I'd amazing. Shock

OnlyLovers · 16/03/2015 18:29

Hang on, have I missed one? Just caught up (well, I thought I had) and have watched the one where

SPOILERS JUST IN CASE!

Elsbeth and Agent Cooper have their one-night stand, Cary gets nicked for crossing the state line and Alicia has to pretend not to be an atheist on telly.

I don't get the references to the intern's mother, things with Finn progressing, Mona/Ramona, Bishop being Alicia's unravelling, Jonny or the report. Am I behind?

OnlyLovers · 16/03/2015 18:29

PS love the wig although feel a bit sad that she wasn't 'allowed' her natural hair.

PPS Cary is still hot stuff. Getting hotter, in fact.

HalleLouja · 16/03/2015 18:43

OnlyLovers you have one more to catch up on.

OnlyLovers · 16/03/2015 18:54

Is it 'Message Discipline', do you know? Looking at the telly listings, I THINK that's the one I'm missing ...

AesopsMables · 19/03/2015 23:08

This week's bored me, the Cary storyline is dragging on too much.

Kalinder bed scenes - left me cold

nightswift · 19/03/2015 23:31

I agree - what was with the card moment at the end?
