I think this pretty much nails it.

I had a similar experience appreciating Megan more on a rewatch. She's still pretty vapid and being more in the Sophie camp myself, I can see how annoying she'd be to live with. Still, she's very good at what she does and takes it seriously, as seriously as the rep company actors do.

A FREAKY, FREAKY DREAM

And look at what Darren does with R&J — makes its the most inaccessible possible production, and of course it's terrible art as a result.

This review helped me appreciate more the waxing and waning of Oliver. In Seasons 1 and 2, Geoffrey is quite literally completing work that Oliver started, and as they reach the end of that work, it makes sense that Oliver would fade from having any presence in the world of the living. But Oliver's ghost is still…

I think future Untuckeds should be required to have Latrice as a sort of moderator/den mother.

Back in the olden days when I wore a watch, I wore it on my right wrist, as all reasonable lefties do.

No, once a show opens the director is done — the show is "set" and the company continues to perform it as it was on opening night. The production stage manager is responsible for keeping an eye on consistency and making sure it is performed as the director wanted, including rehearsing understudies and even new cast…

And I love that we get to see that Charles is a great director with great respect for the work of actors. It's how we understand for the rest of the season what Geoffrey sees in him even when everyone else is convinced he's too frail/cantankerous/over-the-hill to do it.

FINALLY!

I don't think it's weird at all that Megan didn't tell Don she was pregnant right away. First of all, there was no such thing then as a quick OTC pregnancy test, you had to go to the doctor for a test, so she would not have had confirmation as quickly as we do today. Second, many women (not myself — I made my husband…

Agree, so predictable.

I liked her, then in the season opener this year rather got what all the hate is about, but went back to at least tolerating her once she showed some vulnerability around the miscarriage. She's made to have such smugness so often that she gets really grating.

I really like how hard it is for Sarah to play a cop, both in terms of the big picture stuff, like chasing an armed person, but all the little things that make you look plausible at whatever job you're doing — who to ask for things, where they keep the form you need, how to answer the radio. Often on TV and in movies…

It's sort of both. I mean, it's definitely going out of its way to avoid saying WE ARE SET IN TORONTO but it's not exactly hiding it either. For my Canadian husband, who worked for a number of years in Toronto, it was immediately apparent from the first minutes.

Don't be so sure. I remember a production of Peer Gynt that had the director joining the cast in a fully nude rehearsal, because she announced that if she was requiring the cast to be nude, she would join them in solidarity.

I have always tended to agree with the Todd interpretation. Henry is utterly opposed to ANY clothing removal, even to the chest, think it's undignified and a distraction. In the performance, it turns out that he's gone commando, which only cements Henry's humiliation.

Thank god Facebook has spared us the need to sit through hours of vacation slides.

I actually like her LESS now. Last season, I rather liked that she was a breath of fresh air, she seemed able to hold her own with Don, and she demanded him to engage with her. This season so far I found myself hoping she'd be swept out to sea in Hawaii. Just too much "see how cute I am? see how tight my body is?…

Thanks for touching base with us and for that tip.
