Yep, when I went off the pill after being on it 10-12 years, ovulating felt like trying to get rusted machinery working again. Yikes! Everything else stayed pretty normal, though.

I wonder if maybe she does that on purpose to distance herself from the other actors, because her character is supposed to be cold and isolated? Maybe she's a bit of a weak actress and it helps her stay "in character". Maybe that's on instructions from Matt Weiner and she's really a lovely, warm person?

Yep, he's dumb as a box of rocks, but he genuinely tries to be good and do the right thing, and that gets anyone points in my book. But he seems less dumb this season, so maybe they're letting him grow up a bit, too.

I think Tommy was trying to redeem himself with Sam by taking the expected beatdown for him. All he's ever done is sacrifice himself in fights for his family, y'know?

I think when Sookie went over to Alcide's house the first time, he said he'd just moved to Shreveport (unlike in the books where he grew up there). I guess in the show, he'd always lived in Jackson, MS, so it's reasonable that he'd never met Sam before.

I think her mom was on a previous season of Dr Drew Celebrity Rehab.

Nope, cheerwine is a cherry-flavored soft drink :)

Yep. I've always believed you should stay within 15% of your age, just because of the grounding you have as a couple from cultural crossover - you watched the same cartoons as kids, heard the same songs on the radio as teens, know the same catchphrases, etc. If you're in a long term relationship, once you hit the…

Yeah, I have a feeling she'll show up on another network, with a different kind of reality show, like How to cook for a huge family on $XX/week or something.

Of course, we don't know that he's NOT doing that as well, just that he's not getting any publicity for it if he is...

Things I loved in this episode:

I'm gonna have to go ahead and ask you if you got the memo about using a cover sheet with the TPS reports?

I can't hate on Bradley Cooper, ever since I saw him on Graham Norton. Liam Neeson was another guest. When he came out, Bradley Cooper's face lit up like a kid at Christmas and they shared a huge hug and it was just so nice to see such a genuine reaction and genuine affection between them.

Maybe Amy & Will sit in first class, and the kids ride in coach, so they buy drinks for everyone who has to sit near their kids. ;)

Perhaps if they used her FULL silly name: Duchess Shinylocks IWantHerHair?

When men carry the babies to term 50% of the time, then they get 50% of the vote in what happens to a fetus.

Of course, you can always give a medical power of attorney to someone without the hoop-de-doo of a wedding :)

Maybe, because of the way Mad Men fans go on and on about what a Terrible Mother Betty is, she wants to distance herself from that character by being a good mother, herself? And she doesn't want or need the father to be involved in the raising of her child? 'S possible.

I only know one NFL cheerleader, but she kind of viewed it as "paying dues" and a stepping stone in her marketing career. She's a huge football fan and got to meet all the players which was really cool, but more importantly she got to meet the office people that do the promotions & marketing for the team. Granted,…

eh, I was a C when I was in college & too busy to eat. Now that I'm middle age & don't miss any meals, I'm a DDD. It happens. Fat deposits where it deposits.
