This episode was just so, so strange to me. I kept expecting to find out someone had had a stroke and was having a bizarre coma dream. Outside of Travis's story line, the only dance number that worked for me was the big one at the end (and even then, in my mind I was saying "Who does this family think they are? the…

I watched Coming to America on UPN with my dad a lot as a kid. Had no clue I was watching an edited version of the film until we got cable when I was about 14. Samuel L. Jackson swearing wasn't a big deal to me, but man did I get that scene at the basketball game wrong.

If I'm not mistaken, Heard 'em Say was on Late Registration (his second album).

My thoughts in the 0.674 seconds after Tank shouted someone call 911:

I actually read it the other way. It's like in Campbell's infidelity, Daphne sees her own selfishness reflected back at her. That speech to me felt like Daphne indirectly acknowledging how her actions have negatively affected others. The violence with which she made it highlighted her disgust with her own misguided…

While I agree that John's sudden midlife crisis was bewildering, I appreciate he got to have his own story instead of simply reacting to everyone else's (although an argument could be made that it was all in reaction to Kathryn's announcement she's unhappy and wants to try new things).

I saw in an interview that the actor was cast well after Lizzie began impersonating him on camera and was therefore stuck playing the character she'd (the writers) created. Which explains the bow tie and accent.

So they aren't official creations of "Pemberly Digital" but one youtuber has compiled the videos, tweets and tumblr entries of the Lizzie Bennett diaries into 8 story arcs (search Lizzie Bennet Diaries arcs). I started the LBD after the final episode had aired and originally binge watched just Lizzie's videos. But,…

So glad you confirmed for me that they have cheated on one another and I'm not crazy and confusing this show with Brothers & Sisters. Last week when Zeke and Camille were skyping and she asked about "the other woman" (his car) I couldn't help but feel like that was a very poor choice of words.

You make a good point. The majority of the Carlton kids are likely to consider themselves minorities in the sense they are Deaf. It would be interesting to see what happens when they are confronted with others similarly underprivileged.

Earlier I criticized Sharee's dialogue but it's true the actress's struggle with the delivery didn't help matters much.

Thank you! I could not remember why I recognized him. I must have peaced out on Glee before he ever sang.

I have faith that SAB can deliver on the story lines that were set up tonight but, the dialogue that came out of the one "problem" student Sharee had me cringing during every scene she was in. The imagery of the first scene when the deaf Carlton students (predominately white) looked out upon the new, hearing students…

We both need cooler friends.

To each her own.

This is also the second time a couple that has faced an abortion (for simplicity's sake I'm calling Becky and Luke a couple) has gotten back together.

1. I loved the use of "Train Song" during the scene between Drew and Amy. In my honest, slightly hipster opinion, Parenthood has always done an subtly terrific job at using music to underscore scenes. I also appreciated that the characters discussed (however briefly) the pregnancy and abortion that led to their break…

Are children meant to be taller than their parents on tv? I ask as someone who is (and has siblings who are) shorter than both my parents.

I was a little surprised no one thought to ask Caroline/Bonnie/Jeremy for help with finding Elena. I'm sure they'd care to know she was a prisoner being unethically experimented upon. And I get that she'd be a bit out of it having been tortured, almost turned into the vampire that destroys the entire race and getting…

I knew the twist before seeing the original and other than not being shocked and finding some scenes prior to the reveal uncomfortable, I don't think it altered how I feel about it (which is that it has some great shots and an intriguing villain but is overall unsatisfying).
