I guess that's where my suspension of disbelief fails here, because even given his irresponsibility, I find it hard to believe that he just wasn't engaging in domestic chores. And maybe it's having the party be her breaking point is the problem, because it presents a special occasion as if it was the norm. If they…

By "relent" I mean, "lets him be with his children". I'm certainly not arguing that they ought to get back together in the end.

It's more horrifying than that. The kid can summon anything he's thinking of (so they limit what images he can even see), and the doctor who thinks he's helping lets him see a medical textbook. He sees a picture of a heart and thus summons his mother's STILL BEATING HEART into his hands.

Kind of? I mean, (it's been a while), but Miranda relents mostly because he finally got a steady job.
I think the big question in my head is, if he wasn't already doing, essentially, the things he had to do as Doubtfire, then who was? If he was, then what was her damn problem? If he wasn't, then how did he suddenly…

But the movie has to go above-and-beyond to have it even work at all. Like, without the farm animals in the house, it's her coming home from work on her child's birthday and being angry that her husband is throwing a party for said child.

There is something strange about how he clearly had the skillset and temperament to be a fantastic stay-at-home-dad, but Miranda doesn't want him to be that. The core of her anger comes from her not wanting them to engage in non-traditional roles. I don't want to be all "the patriarchy hurts men too" but this movie…

"In-house petting zoo" always struck me as someone trying way too hard to come up with how he can be "fun dad".

I think they've only suggested that it doesn't necessarily have to be the exact same cast.

Still no entries in the mutant hamster races.

Perhaps the more "theoretical" aspect is what shape S2 will take, who will be the team, etc.

Everyone does.

Alternative theory: telling the world that the actor was signed for 16 episodes was a lie so we wouldn't see this coming. Are such tricks allowed?

I'll admit, I completely forgot about Joan's dad.

Well, I think the medbay has its limits. It couldn't help the professor last week. So it's advanced tech, but it isn't healing magic.

While, and I quote, REALLY STONED.

Maybe just in Kendra memory flashbacks…

To be fair, he DID order the last one.

I wonder if that's who Joyner was supposed to be, but Browder was unavailable for some reason….

By Season Six, they'd have to, yes?

I always feel strange at cons like that because of how monetized the interactions with said celebrities are. Like, if there was opportunity to just bump into them at the bar and say hello, that would be one thing, but too often it's a controlled environment where you can't even come within 20 feet without baying an…
