Hammerbutt needs things spelled out—her altering the lyrics to highlight child abuse before ripping the picture and referring to the Church as "the real enemy" doesn't seem to cut it.

If only Lookwell would have been given the chance to fail miserably for at least a few episodes.

As a tangentially related topic of discussion, that HuffPo story is interesting-ish. Thanks for choosing to post it.

Spelling it out for Mark: in both instances of their "hooking up," she initiated the conversation with "Hey, you." So I imagined it as her signal, regardless of whether the show intended to do that.

You'd equated "bowl-smoking" to "trippy," so I thought we were on the same page. If we're not, I'm terribly sorry. And I'd love to agree with you about Pepper changing everything, but I don't see it as cut and dry as you evidently do. The bowl-smoking was already in the air, as evinced not only by Lennon's…

Down. Able, willing and ready.

That's perfectly natural, SlackerInc. But would it always lead to some sort of complication/internal struggle/affair? It is possible for most people to repress their basest impulses in order to remain within societal norms and for the sake of one's own family. But the Bravermans aren't most people, evidently.

Whether Sgt. Pepper is when the Beatles "changed" and music changed is debatable, regardless of anyone's consideration one way or the other. But again, back to the topic at hand, which was their earliest "bowl-smoking" songs—to me it would seem that John was the first responder to the psychedelic sounds beginning to…

Especially when she opens with, "Hey, you," which evidently means she's DTF.

YES! I guess a lot of shows are guilty of it; but I don't watch a lot of shows, and one would think that Parenthood would be able to find its way around such a thing, so it's all the more disappointing when it continues to happen.

Whether or not McCartney wrote "MOST of the albums" is a debatable point; however, as the subject at hand seemed to be psychedelic, trippy, "bowl-smoking" songs, I thought it fit to bring up Lennon's authoring the band's earliest forays into the sub-genre. While Lennon was putting together "She Said She Said" and…

"She Said She Said"?

"McCartney wrote most of those albums …"

I don't believe that Chappelle's Show, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Family Matters, In Living Color, The Cosby Show, The Jeffersons nor Scandal played/play to a primarily minority audience, no matter the racial makeup of the casts of those shows.

If I never hear those words again, it'll be too soon.

TNK?

Ditto "It's All Too Much".

PLUS actor.

George thrills me sometimes. "I Want to Tell You" is often my favorite song on Revolver, for instance.

Wonderfully "depreciatory" wit, innit?
