I haven’t re-watched this season for like 25 years, but I have to say, this is exactly how I remember it.

See also Corner Gas, Kim’s Convenience... Even Heartland treats winter more as an occasional special guest star than a season.

RW felt like a legit documentary series in the early seasons. “Reality show” as a concept was still so nascent; I think there’s an parallel reality where “reality shows” maintained some semblance of, well, reality, and a commitment to the core tenant of trying to educate viewers and learn about different people and…

For those of us old enough to have watched the RWSF at the time, Pedro dying the day after the last episode was a fucking gut punch. I remember crying all day. 

The masks that prevent HIV go on your dick, numbnuts.

How does someone speak with so much confidence on something they know nothing about. You said “Without masks, social distancing” lmao

Actually I prefer the natural dramedy with these characters instead of the whodunnit, which is cliched “dead girl” and now “serial killer and kidnapper” mystery we’e seen a billion times before. But the show has a lived-in, authentic quality when it’s just focused on these people in this town, facing problems all to…

I think the fake ransom money was actually extra copies of the fliers that Ma Bailey had posted around town offering a reward for information on her daughter, so a nice bit of irony (and sadness considering that she had put so many up around town and she still had a healthy stack of spares).

When June came down after not servicing the rebel, Janine was eying the loft he was in with a look like she was contemplating paying the price. When she came to sit with June after June changed clothes, she said something about how it wasn’t too bad, and the guy thought her eyepatch was cool. Intimating that she gave…

I agree that it’s unlikely she would leave him, but man, that would be a much better ending to this Lifetime movie.

And now that Mare is officially off the case (and we know that won’t stop her) he will really have to take the lead as far as the public and other cops will see. But, he’ll still be learning at her knee. In the end, he may still get the credit once this is solved (assuming it is.)

Agreed with all that. Psychologically, Mare’s terrible choice made sense and has been set up from the first episode. But it betrayed her cop values, which isn’t an issue, but for me, it happening a tad too quickly. We’ve seen her be nothing but a good, decent cop who takes the job so seriously that she’s mad with…

Is it me, or have his lawyers worded that statement in a way that doesn’t at all indicate he didn’t do it? The only thing that comes close is saying he pled not guilty, which he obviously would. But the rest is just saying, “Prosecutors will do their thing, and Josh will fight it, and ... yeah.”

IIRC his parents not only knew what he did to his sisters, they “resolved” it by having him apologise to his sisters - then forcing them to them apologise for the wrongs they did him, and forgive him.

He’s the wrong kind of Christian for that priesthood. The Duggars are Independent Baptists, and they’re not as good at hiding their kiddy fiddlers as the Catholics. The lack the big, international organization with schools and parishes all over the world. They might be able to hide him in an overseas mission for a…

Just your daily reminder that “Don’t Trust the B” was a fucking great show.

Perhaps the modifiers are becoming increasingly less relevant and the term “relationship” can stand by itself? 

I wanted to say that I, a female, had a male partner who always came twice.

There’s something to be said for a great straight man who is subtly funny.

I have exactly zero idea why, but “... don’t give your wife the clap, please,” really made me giggle.
