Does anyone else watch this show?

I love it, but nobody seems to know about it! Sad

It was a really frustrating episode - writers move along faster with the Miguel/Rebecca back story! Talk about drip feed.
The Madison Thanksgiving saga was strange. She had agreed to go with the twins to the cabin then decided to stay home with new BF without telling Kevin. No wonder he was a bit p.o.They need to sort out contact arrangements and discuss it like normal adults. Rebecca was always lovely to Madison (even when Madison used to be really ditzy and totally wanted an in with the Pearson's) - Madison should let Rebecca have a last Thanksgiving with the twins. The new BF/Evan(?) shouldn't have had a go at Kevin - I found it controlling (I find new bf creepy). Kevin should be sensible enough to get a hotel room when Toby is home and buy a flat so he has a home for when he has contact with the twins.

I like Kevin - he is the most interesting character. His storylines have a bit more pep. The Beth storyline was snoresville (like a lot of the last and this series) and her "closure" ranty phonecall was a bit unhinged ( reminded me of when Kate went to give out to her abusive BF decades afterwards). They should be getting on with stories about her DD's lives.

I always thought the series was overly sacchirine but it's too too much now.

Agree with others at least there was no "big man" "Saint Jack" scenes. I wish Rebecca and Miguel would crack and admit what a controlling, addicted FU he was.

If jack was alive they probably would have got divorced

It’s easy to put someone who is dead on a pedestal

I love Jack or is it just Milo?! Grin but I don't need to see any more flashbacks with him.
Interesting point about Kate confronting her old bf and Beth calling her old teacher. It's a bit odd that they seem to think all women need to confront some male from their past. It makes me feel a bit ick now it's been pointed out. It's like some faux empowered shit by someone who can only see women as victims [vom]

Oops should have been Envy Grin

Is there no new episode this week? Usually drops on a Thursday. Not feeling this series as much as the previous but too invested now to miss a episode 😂

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2022 16:20

No. March 10 is the next

Passthebubbly · 03/03/2022 16:38

Thanks for that.

ElephantLover · 03/03/2022 18:13

This series feels like flogging a dead horse. There is barely any more story to be told. Tying up the loose ends will probably need couple episodes. But we now have to watch 2000 of them to get that info. Great!

#no horses were harmed in making this series Grin

I know, I hope they don’t ram all their lives as they are now into the final episode. Money on Rebecca passing away with big 3 around her and a montage of Jack coming to meet her at the pearly gates.

Oh yeah I'm predicting it's going to be like the end of Titanic where Rose Rebecca meets Jack at the steps by the clock and everyone looks at them and they start clapping

With Miguel sobbing his heart out in the background

@MinglingFlamingo Haha 😂 This is SO happening!

I've got it. It will be a recreation of the fair they went to for their first date. And all the people in the Ferris wheel and stuff will be people from the past.

William will have a staring roll as the guy serving toffee apples or something

@MinglingFlamingo - are you a script writer? If not you should be 👏

How did I miss that there was no episode this week? Sat down to watch it and it wasn't there. I'd even read the thread! Finding it much less compelling this series but feeling like I have to see it through.

TheUnquestionedAnswer · 06/03/2022 02:18

Just started watching Orange is the new black - Malik is the nephew of Poussey (also Moira in THMT)!!

Lillipops · 06/03/2022 02:32

Next episode 10th March...driving me mad why can't they just air the series?!

GastroNuisance · 07/03/2022 08:56

It's very pedestrian right now isn't it? Everyone has got so serious and heavy. Nobody is having any fun. Blah.

I think Toby's earpods are interesting. Like he's sort of in two different worlds.

But like everyone else - I wish it would all move on a bit quicker.

He's also one of the accused in When They See Us (highly recommended if you haven't seen it).
idiotfacelicker · 10/03/2022 11:35

Just watched todays. Had some sweet (if cheesy) moments but still didn't really move any plots any further forward.

Pl242 · 10/03/2022 21:28

I quite liked today. Thought it moved it along a bit. Hope we get weekly episodes from now on!

neveradullmoment99 · 10/03/2022 21:37

It was good to see how Miguel ends up with Rebecca. Story didn't really move on much.
