I have to admit, I laughed my ass off during that scene, with the exaggerated "Oh Yahhs" from the stripper.

One could hope so, but I wouldn't risk anything I cared about on that proposition.

Both the cops scare me. Sarah is an idiot, and I honestly think Tony would happily plant evidence to get a conviction.

You're right. That brings up to a 40% likeable factor. I still stand by my statement of a pretty unlikeable cast.

I don't hate Jeremiah, I just think he's dopy. He couldn't make up his mind early on, making promises to everybody, therefore proving himself to be about the last person you can trust.

This is one of the most hard to like casts in quite a while. It's full of unpleasant assholes and morons, and many of them fit both categories. Every time I think I have decided who the worst is, someone else steps up to challenge for the throne.

Could you please be more tiresome?

My thought was "How many innocent people has he planted evidence on back home as a cop".

I don't have that much of a problem with it. Obnoxious Massachussetts chick (I'm not going to bother looking up her name) was clearly baiting her to take a swing at her, and that would have been bad, to have yourself decking someone on Youtube forevermore.

Actually she had just given birth and hadn't lost all the weight. Apparently they had to build in breaks every three hours in the shooting schedule so she could pump.

I'm pretty amused by the fact that part of the reason that Ted and The Mother are made for each other is that they both tell long-winded stories about their miss-spent youth.

Of course they've done something with her being mixed race.. It was found out just one episode ago that she was an 0-8-4 from a small village in **CHINA**. It was kind of the plot of the whole freakin' episode.

The worst part about that being spoilered (for me) was that it was spoilered in a movie review by that right wing fuckwad Michael Medved because he had a moral objection to the movie. I could have punched him.

One Day At A Time is also the show that introduced us to Valerie Bertinelli, who was astoundingly hot back then, and isn't bad now, 30 years later.

That twist reminded me of the Lois McMaster Bujold story "Falling Free", where the Quaddies (4-arm no-leg humans designed to live in free fall) were owned by the company that created them.

The S.W.A.T. team commander on Hill Street Blues used it all the time and that was 25+years ago so it's not new.

The scrubbing scene cracked me up! It reminded me of the Ellen Burstyn house-cleaning scene in Requiem For A Dream, except funny.

****Yes but, the "Church" in Britain would most likely have been Anglican. How did Helena get to Ukraine where the "Church" would most likely have been Russian Orthodox?*****

Possible shoutout to Kate Hepburn? Can't think of any other reason to give her that middle name. I guess that Nathan would be Spencer Tracy then.

Dawn was never going to win even before the Brenda debacle. That just ensured that she wouldn't get any votes at all. She was playing a 2nd place game the whole way. Just like nobody will ever vote for a complete asshole like Russell Hantz, no one is going to vote for the schoolyard snitch.
