Expect a lot of "Bob is on the phone" this season.

Dammit, Travis, Jules raised you better than this! Don't be a jerk to Joan!

"Yeah, I think that's the key part, Adalind needs to think the baby is gone from that circle of super-friends."

Yeah, as Kevin noted, Monroe and Rosalee work so well as POV characters, showing just how nuts some of these situations (and these characters) can be.

Regarding the promo for next week (so spoilers!), Entertainment Weekly had an awesome article about how Jim Kouf (one of the show's producers and co-creators) was giving a talk to his daughter's screenwriting class at the University of Michigan and afterwards he did a table read with the students. He liked one of them…

They didn't need to come up with some big to-do to distract her, though. She had no idea that they planned on stealing her baby, so she couldn't have been prepared to guard against it. Heck, the next time she went to the bathroom they could have absconded with the kid.

But the baby didn't object to Kelly at all. So they could have just taken her while Adalind slept and the baby would have gone with Kelly. And they didn't have to throw off the royals since they took the baby directly to the royals. Heck, did the royals even know who Kelly was? Why would they care if Kelly was…

Question about the plan, though. Wasn't it very unnecessarily complicated? It is not like they tried to trick Adalind into thinking that they didn't take the baby, right? So all they needed to do was to just steal the baby from her. They could have just done it while she was sleeping, no? Why the fiction of arresting…

The best part of this for me is that Claire Coffee can finally start being able to play Adalind as a bad ass again. She was getting a bit too meek in these last few episodes. It'll be fascinating to see what they do with her now.

Yeah, while I suspected it was them, as soon as he spoke it was like "Monroe!"

Yeah, I adore the contrast between Kelly and Nick in their approaches. Her take is so matter-of-fact and not giving a shit about anything while he is always so concerned about everyone (he's willing to kill if he has to, but it is never a nonchalant thing to him). Just like how last week she literally forgot that she…

"You crazy kids! What am I going to do with you?!"

While I agree, I give them a significant mulligan on the Drew stuff as so much of it can really be understandably chalked up to "College relationships don't always make sense." Every time I think, "but that doesn't make any sense!" I then think, "Oh yeah, they're freshman. Little they do makes any sense in real life"…

I think they're preparing us for them to go either way. I agree that right now that logic and the current narrative supports a permanent split (albeit a relatively friendly one) more, but the plots on Parenthood do not always go logically (or else Kristina would not have nearly become the Mayor of Berkeley).

Yeah, like most of us I'm sure, all I could think about when I saw the promo was some of your speculation as to how Haddie was spending her time in college. I guess you're like that kid from the "It's a Good Life" episode of Twilight Zone - any errant thought might become reality. Does your new found control over time…

Yeah, even when SNL isn't funny, they do an amazing, amazing job on the set designs.

I do feel bad for the new featured players. There are sooooo many new players that some will inevitably get screwed, screentime-wise.

Beck Bennett as the co-anchor was such the obvious go-to call, but I guess Fey and Meyers have (annoyingly) made "head writers gets to be the WU anchor" a tradition now. It's a real shame.

"I think in the Resistance, they're all Wesen. " Oh? I got the impression that it was a sort of collective of humans and Wesens working together against the Royals.

So if it is a retcon, do you think there's a reason for the retcon? Like we'll learn that Nick's memory was altered at one point so that he doesn't remember certain things from his past correctly?
