PLOT: Stu (Ed Helms) is getting married in Thailand, and his wolf pack, including Phil (Bradley Cooper), Alan (Zach Galifianakis), and Doug (Justin Bartha) are there to walk him down the aisle. Swearing off bachelor parties after their experience in Vegas, the boys opt for a quiet beach bonfire, in the company of Stu's fiancées brother, Teddy (Mason Lee). Despite their good intentions, the next morning Stu, Phil, and Alan wake up in a seedy motel room in Bangkok, with no memory of the night before, and Teddy missing. Now the three have to embark on a mad quest through Bangkok to find Teddy in time for Stu's wedding.
Loved the callback to the chocolate milk with salt, as well as the usage of past episodes for the very short video.
I really enjoyed Manny's interaction with Cam. It was sweet. As was the nod to fans annoyed that Lily doesn't talk yet.
Liked the Humphrey sibs together; Luke was hilarious in his editing of the video. I've always liked the Claire/Mitchell interaction, and I'm really glad they included that this episode. They have a really strong and realistic relationship.
So I wonder if Cam/Mitchell will adopt another Vietnamese baby or go for a US adoption. This is just speculation but I could see them going with a US open adoption type scenario if only because I think there would be humor in them going through numerous possible birth mother candidates.
and awww.. Jay and Manny. That was so sweet of Manny. Not gonna lie, may have teared up a little!
I'm glad New Directions didn't place. Maybe next season they can actually rehearse like a real show choir instead of writing/arranging/choreographing original songs in a matter of days and winning with that shit. I did like "Light Up the World" but mostly because of Santana.
I AM IN LOVE WITH BRITTANY. She deserves all the goddamn awards. Santana should've kissed her after that speech, but I'm glad they're friends again. I've really missed them being all cutesy in the background lately.
Finchel is so boring I was really not paying attention while they were on screen. Which was unfortunately most of the ep.
I love Kurt/Rachel's friendship. "For Good" was great, although I wish they hadn't cut it. They should've let them sing the whole song and cut down on the Sunshine mess that means nothing.
What was Quinn's big plan? Whatever, I loved the Unholy Trinity scene. I've missed them too. ALSO - Quinn totally knows Santana is gay. Does this mean the whole club knows? And Santana didn't seem to care. See Santana, NO ONE CARES. Just come out & be with Britt next season, k?
Oh and I loved the NY mash-up. As a song alone its not fabulous but the visuals made it. I was bopping the whole time, loved seeing all the NY landmarks.
As for Samcedes. I approve, Mercedes deserves a nice guy.
Once again, Justin Timberlake did a great job. Looks like the writers saved most of their best material for him. As for Lady GaGa, she's no slouch either performance and comedy-wise, especially in the "Liquorville," game show and "3-Way (Golden Rule)" sketches. If she eventually hosts, I not only wouldn't be suprised, as long as the sketches were on JT level, I'd be thrilled.
I was laughing out loud so many times. I have to re-watch to even remember. I knew something was going to happen to Ron's facial hair once they said "lighter fluid".
Other great moments: Ron saying he only cried twice in his life - once he got hit by a bus and the other time when he found out lil' Sebastian died. Donna reading the poem Ann's officemate saying "get these fucking balloons out of here" The swiveling chair Andy and April's reaction to getting paid $50 to write a song The random guy smashing the coffee pot The butt dialing and political foreplay
I have to watch again b/c I know I laughed so much and am forgetting too many things.
I will be really sad if Aziz leaves next season. I jumped on his bandwagon after he was on Scrubs for a few episodes. I love him!
I'm really enjoying the fact that the writers have decided to give Haley more depth as of late. The anxiety that she experiences as a result of listening to her college-bound friends' excited gabbing about that impending time is entirely realistic and forces me to generate compassion for the character. Her deepening relationship with Alex is another credit to the show's writing staff. It doesn't progress with false rapidity nor does it ring hollow; it's very organic.
And while I didn't laugh when Cam hit the glass door, I cracked up when he hit the screen door. I apparently only think it's funny when it doesn't involve a lot of pain- walking into a solid door HURTS. The pool wasn't funny because it was cliche (like the doors weren't? I have no solid argument here) but if someone did it in real life, and wasn't hurt- it would be hysterical.
Call me lame, but Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell's bodies deserve an ovation. First, Phil's ass as he waited to be hoisted over the gate, then the insanity of their legs on that bicycle, and finally, not so much the tumble down the hill as much as the way they popped straight up and collected themselves before proceeding to their seats. I was howling. I love watching physical comedy between the two of them.
I really liked Haley and Alex's talk, and that Alex totally got what Haley was worried about. And that she ended up using Haley's song suggestions, and that it was Gloria's favorite part of the speech.
I also enjoyed Manny's "Well, one of us will graduate." Poor Luke, though I totally believe he opened the door with his mind.
A mighty fine performance by Jane Lynch. There's the Sue I missed, the one that can be snarky, but also human enough not to be a caricature. I do wonder, though, if Will and ND won't be in her sights, how she's going to be relevant to the show? Her running for the House doesn't tie her to McKinley.
The only audition performance I liked was Santana's. I thought Mercedes strangled that song, she was super shouty and screechy. Rachel was Rachel, great vocals, what more can be said? Kurt, meh, not so keen on him singing soprano for a whole song.
I noticed that Puck wasn't singing during the funeral tribute, but just stood there. I wonder why?
Will was very good tonight, especially with Sue. His reading in her place at the funeral was very moving. The Wonka theme was also very touching. I feel horrible for wondering this, but did the actress who played Jean die? It seemed like the show was paying a tribute to her, not just her character.
Finn, Finn, Finn. I can see why he decided to break up with Quinn. He hasn't been into the relationship for quite some time now. But to do it right after a funeral? Carpe diem and all, but sheesh, have a little sensitivity.
I wish Nationals wasn't original songs. It was ok for a one-off "Glee" gimmick, but I wanted to be wowed with mash-ups, solos and fun group numbers.
In all fairness, I liked some parts. Serena was awesome, and I haven't liked her much in the past two years. Honey, it's in your best interest to stay away from the fucked up shit that happens on the UES. Stay happy in California! Oh, and Georgina. But I always love Georgina. I think I'll have to rewatch her scenes, just because.
Now that I've had time to sit on the Dan book stuff (I read the spoilers), it's an interesting idea. But the chances that these writers will do it justice? Slim to none, really. He didn't come off looking like as big of a douche as I thought he would in the reveal, but I think that he will be played up as a douche for "playing" everyone next season, when it all comes out.
The Thorpe stuff was stupid. The "saving" was so fucking lame. We didn't even get a fire. Come on, if you're going to "threaten" someone's life, show, actually do it. Instead, it's a bunch of talking and people running around. Even Raina's goodbye scene was dumb. There were like three lines in it.
Everything Chuck and Blair pissed me off. Leighton's acting was actually pretty bad in many parts. Maybe she wasn't happy about it either? I'm so annoyed that "Rolling in the Deep" was used for a CB sex scene, too. It's a great song, but bad associations now. I'll just try to think of the way Glee used it instead. Then again, the lyrics aren't about a healthy relationship, so it's got that going for it.
But seriously, the worst part was Blair being pregnant. WTF are the writers thinking with this?! Timeline wise, it could be Louis', but chances are, it's Chuck's. And Eleanor would not take a pregnancy test in Blair's bathroom, so it's not hers. I've been looking for a good enough push to quit watching. I think I found it. So yeah, I think I'm finally done. But I will have to stick around in the forums for a bit to see the aftermath.
By the way, what did Charlie/Ivy steal? It looked like checks, but I'm not sure. I'm just curious.
Not a perfect finale, but the best since S4. I have to give TPTB credit for surprising me more than once.
I wasn't expecting Paul/Felicia/Susan to be wrapped up so quickly. It was so annoying how Paul believed everything he heard, even if it was the right thing. Also, why does there have to be a hostage situation in almost every finale? I knew Beth was going to be responsible for a death, and I figured it would be Felicia. I couldn't be happier that she's finally gone. I can't believe Susan told Paul he wasn't a killer when she suspected him of killing Martha in S1 (so his confession shouldn't have surprised her). So what happens to all the houses he bought? And why didn't Paul wonder why Felicia still had Beth's ashes after they dumped them in the river?
Way to jerk me around re: Tom/Lynette, PTB. When he came back, I actually groaned. When she started her heartfelt speech about what she felt while he was gone, my first thought was, Here we go again, now he's going to take her back. I so wasn't expecting her to admit she was relieved. Please, please, please let this separation last awhile, preferably an entire season. Doug/Felicity were fantastic in those scenes, probably their best work of the season.
How does a city employee and the owner of a failing business afford a lake house?
Gaby/Alejandro was pretty predictable--who didn't know where he'd end up as soon as they showed the chest?--but my heart started pounding as soon as Carlos (who I wasn't expecting to appear at all) saw them together. I also couldn't help but think of Gaby knocking Victor off the boat thinking that he had a gun on him even though she was defending Carlos, who wanted to confess then too.
PLOT: Annie is a charming, yet decidedly unhappy woman trying to find her way in life. The one bright star is that she has always been able to count on her best friend Lillian. Things change however when Annie finds that Lillian is engaged to be married and wants her to be her maid of honor. With that comes the daily stress of getting by, plus the added pressure of preparing wedding showers and every other task the maid of honor must take on. Will her friendship survive? Can she compete with her BFF’s new ultra-rich gal pal? You have to see the movie to find out… and you should.
THIS SHOW. I just want to reach through my screen and hug it so hard. This episode was amazing. And even though I loved A Fistful of Paintballs, I loved this part even more—just because we got to see the entire Greendale campus in action, working together. Also, Shirley and Britta being total badasses. And Vicki! In the last ep, she became my favorite Greendale character, and this part cemented it.
What I do find interesting about this episode is how neatly they addressed a lot of the concerns everyone brought up throughout this season, i.e. Britta being the one that's always mocked, Shirley being ignored during some of the eps—they managed to give both those characters a redemption arc. I loved watching them tear through the campus, shooting the bad guys—so, so, SO awesome.
I'll admit it—for as much as I hated Pierce in the D&D episode and at various times throughout the season, I teared up when he walked away from the group.
This finale was AMAZING. The S1 finale left me feeling totally gutted (mostly due to Anna's death--more on her later!--plus Caroline's car crash, and they were my favourites) but this finale left me feeling so excited for S3! Everything that happened was fantastic:
- Stefan becoming a ripper thanks to Klaus--YES, he is finally interesting! I can't wait to see what happens next. I've been waiting for this all season...that scene of him surrounded by blood bags was haunting. And did his eyes look yellow at the end there? Did Klaus feed Stefan some of his own blood too? (Total speculation...except, Katherine and Damon also ingested Klaus' blood so that probably wouldn't mean anything anyways.)
- Can't wait to see what Klaus does to Katherine when he inevitably catches her again. (I was confused though--did he know she was on vervain this whole time or did he only figure out after she busted out of there?)
- Speaking of Katherine, I enjoyed the flashbacks as I always do. Although they left me confused again--so did she or did she not "love" both brothers (as she told Elena at the end)? Was she just lying again when she told Damon it was all about Stefan? (I would prefer that she had some "feelings" for both brothers, although obviously she loves herself above all.)
- Liz finally coming around and accepting Caroline! Yay! I was so scared she was going to stab Caro in the back (literally) during the hug but awww, she actually came around. I liked the little interchange of dynamics between Liz and the Mayor too.
- Damon/Elena: I don't mind what happens with them either way but I got bored of Stefan/Elena a long time ago and the back-and-forth between Damon/Elena (along with all that emo Damon) was getting very annoying. I got sick of the writers dragging out the triangle with nothing happening, too. So this is a plus in my book.
- Finally, the absolute BEST part: I found the reviving Jeremy part was so lame--I mean, I obviously want him alive, but it was obvious Bonnie was going to do her usual voodoo stuff and bring him back, which...another deus ex machina, ugh. BUT THEN...he starts to SEE DEAD PEOPLE. I nearly screamed when Anna came back! Love her. I was pretty ambivalent about Vicki but when she came back I almost started hyperventilating because I was wondering if that meant Anna would be there too...AND THEN SHE WAS. Like ripper-Stefan, haunted-by-dead-girlfriends-Jeremy is infinitely more interesting and has way more potential than his previous boring self.
Only bad thing was Elijah. Damnit, I saw that coming when Klaus was being all cryptic and dismissive of him, but...nooooo, Elijah! :'( Thankfully he can still be revived (the writers better revive him in S3!).
Watching this episode made me realize that Gloria is my mom. My sister and I used to come home from school to find random strangers eating in our kitchen and laughing it up with my mom. To this day she'd give anyone the clothes off her back if it means she's helping someone. Love that about her and so Gloria's generosity really resonated with me.
I had to chuckle to at Phil going on about how evil the kids were, harkening back to the Mother's Day episode and Claire telling Gloria that sometimes she just wanted slug the kids.
And yes, Mitchell realizing his pose looked stereotypical, and trying not to do so, was hilarious.
This was...weird. I felt like they tried to stuff too much into it - but they kind of had to since they've been building into it a lot. But it felt like too much. If anything this should've been the 90 minute episode rather than Born This Way.
I thought overall it had a mix of both things I like and things I hate about Glee. First off, nothing really noteworthy happened until 40 minutes in - until then it seemed like a lot of fluff (although I liked the "budget prom" thing - nice little touch...and I guess Jessie was 'noteworthy'). The Kurt prom queen stuff was at first handled very well and was a nice look into his character but the Dancing Queen ending was all kinds of embarrassing, I mean really? I'm also just not really buying the Karofsky/Kurt sudden friendship. It's just too schmaltzy for me. Also, Blaine pours his heart out to Kurt about how he was bullied at a school dance and then the same thing happened to Kurt and he says "oh it's just a joke?". Didn't like that, either.
I don't feel like the Quinn/Rachel/Finn plot ever really got off the ground and the conclusion felt rushed. Kicking Finn and Jesse out of prom seemed pointless especially since it wasn't even brought up after it happened. I don't think they needed that, really. I guess it heightened the Rachel/Quinn tension...but all in all that whole plot was pretty unsatisfactory anyway.
The Santana stuff was maybe the best of the episode. If any character has actually been developed well this year, it's her. This episode continued that - all of her scenes were well done, and we seem to be moving closer to her completely coming into her own as a character and adjusting into her true self and that's been interesting to watch.
Didn't see any point in Artie's plot at all and the lemonade ending was lame and weird. And it featured more of unfunny Season 2 Sue. They need to do something about her already.
I think my favorite parts of this episode were the quick little glimpses at the kids bonding ("Budget Prom", Kurt testing out the prom dresses). The rest seemed forced and cliche but it had its moments. As a whole, it was mostly enjoyable to watch as a stand alone episode. But as a conclusion to the tension that has been building up to this episode - it wasn't all that satisfying.
I've been sort of expecting Russell Thorpe to be the one that set the building on fire, so that didn't really come as a surprise. I am kind of annoyed by Jack does good turn of his character, because if anyone could punish Chuck, it's Jack.
Things that displeased me:
I liked the way that Louis was going when he said, "How could you protect someone who hurts you?" re: Chuck causing Blair's injury, but then immediately telling her she has a dark side? It didn't make sense at all. Clearly, Blair's got issues with Chuck, but calling it a dark side and then giving her an ultimatum? Ugh, shades of Chuck.
Roman Holiday - *Wails* That was a spec for DAN, writers do you hear me? At least Chuck turned out to be a deranged Gregory Peck.
Blair forgiving Chuck for the 1,015th time - She needs to stop protecting him. She's not his mother. Ugh.
Things that pleased me:
Charlie - "Call me Serena." That was a way better moment than I could have hoped. That totally killed Dan boner, and he was totally down for it--I loved Penn's horndog face as Charlie took her dress. Though poor guy, there hasn't been a single romance that's worked out for him this season.
Serena being incredibly annoying about her dress - Even though she came off as bitchy, it was pretty in character for Serena to be very upset about something that is obviously false.
Wallace Shawn - That man does no wrong ever. Did you noticed he called Blair his "princess bride-to-be?" I loved that he pointed out that no matter what Eleanor does, he still loves her. That's something Blair really needs to know--that there are men who will love you for who you are, no matter what.
I guess the writers are really going for that Dark Knight angle since this is pretty much the plot of the Dark Knight with the Blair kidnapping and all. Ugh, is Louis going to get a half face? Will Chuck embrace a new love of couture rubber chest suit? It was kind of a rollicking episode, but as always, without Dan and Blair, I wasn't as amused.
JL did a great job at conveying Ade's pain at Navid's rejection at the dance but that said... bitch is crazy. Navid's not even giving Ade subtle signs he might still want her deep down. Drugging him, then faking like he said he still loved her and the rest while his face shows nothing but revulsion. So Ade's willing to destroy both of them and herself so that Navid & Silver can't be together while still seeing herself as some poor victim who deserves "justice" if she can't have her "happiness". Shame Silver figured it out only to have Navid make her doubt her conclusion about the pill swap.
My favorite part was Naomi's long, hilarious, totally vein speech when she was crowned prom queen and then Teddy piping up, "Um...thanks." Heh.
If this show is smart, they'll use the college break to write off Annie. She's horrible. Have her go to Carnegie Melon and stay there.
As soon as Max said the paper was good, I knew he would mess with it. I hope to see Naomi prevail a la Donna Martin graduates! Raj and Ivy are the cutest. Dixon showed signs of a personality 2 weeks in a row! I feel like they could do great things with him once he's free of the family.
Pretty much a new low for Lynette. I really, really hope that Tom does the smart thing and divorces her. Either that or Penny's crying is a wake-up call for Lynette and she realize she's been ridiculous and Tom's right about her jealousy and undermining ways.
I cursed her out about three or four times this episode because I think it takes a special kind of sickness to question a luxury trip to Hawaii just because you weren't consulted. Yeah, Tom probably should have checked in with her first, but it's not so irresponsible to raise the bitter the way she did.
Bree/cop date: it was kind of cute that he looked at Bree's file and to see her all in a huff. But honestly, if I read a police file that said just the things that the cop read about Bree, I don't think I would want to actually go on the date. And Bree's holier-than-thou attitude towards Cop's not-yet-final-divorce seems inappropriate for Bree, considering she shacked up with someone, was cheating on Orson with Karl.
The Susan/Paul/Felicia storyline requires a fair amount of stupidity. If only Susan could be a grown up and say, "Please don't eat the cookies. I just found out that they might have been tampered with." Or if after the 5th time Felicia came over to help her cook, Susan didn't say, "Well that's about enough of that."
The Gabi storyline had its moments, but it seems a little late in the game to be introducing the latest Wisteria Lane serial killer.
Now let's all celebrate with a cool glass of turnip juice! Seriously, this episode worked the Pawnee/Springfield connection like nobody's business.
And I loved it. Even with all of the absurdities of Eagleton, this was a really good, low-key episode. I thought Parker Posey was great. Ron's B-story led to hilarious interactions all around -- Andy trying to define their relationship was priceless. I think he hit the nail on the head with camp counselor.
This episode was a good showcase for Ann as well; her little wave to Lindsay on the whiffleball diamond cracked me up.
PLOT: Arrogant warrior Thor (Chris Hemsworth), heir to the throne of Asgard, is cast out of his realm by his father, King Odin (Anthony Hopkins). He's banished to Earth, where he meets a young physicist, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). While getting used to his new earthly surroundings, his duplicitous brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston), now King of Asgard, puts a plan in motion to ensure his brother never returns to claim his rightful throne.
I love this show so much, I wanna take it behind the middle school and get it pregnant.
This wasn't just an awesome sitcom episode, it was actually a great action show. The spaghetti Western parody aspect is not only pitch-perfect, but it serves to give this episode a very different feel than "Modern Warfare" despite using a lot of the same settings and a virtually identical premise.
If I have one complaint, it's that the episode really focused on Annie, Jeff, and Pierce at the expense of the rest of the study group (Britta in particular got about three lines throughout the episode, which I didn't like so much), but the nice thing about a two-parter (as well as resolving those three's separate rivalries with the Black Rider at the end of this episode) is that the next episode can showcase Britta, Shirley, and Troy a bit more (Abed wasn't as neglected this episode as those three, and Shirley got more time on camera than Britta or Troy, too).
Loved Jeff and Britta's matching outfits and them being the King and Queen of Spades respectively. The "Greendale parents" theme is one of my favorite goofy in-jokes that the show does, and it's nice that they've kept that going lately.
Josh Holloway did a great job, and it'll be too bad if he doesn't appear at all in the next episode (which looks fucking awesome, may I add).
The Dark Knight music playing at the end was just inspired. As is that ice cream mascot costume (the fact that the woman sounds like Patience from the "Firefly" pilot helps).
Holy hot damn. That was quite an episode, it felt more like a season finale than the second to last episode. Gosh, where to even start?
SO glad to see Greta killed in such a satisfying manner. She was an irredeemable bitch. First snacked on by Jenna, then neck snapped by Damon. She deserved it. And BONNIE!!! I loved how fierce she was! Keeping Jeremy and Alaric in the house was a smart move. Yea it sucked that she took their choice away from them, but I do totally believe they woulda just been in the way, Klaus could have used them against Elena. And when she was whipping up that storm to take Klaus down, I was cheering for her. For you Bonnie, you go Bonnie!
SO GLAD HE'S NOT DEAD! So Klaus daggered the rest of the family and hid the bodies away, only to use that knowledge as a back up plan to keep Elijah from killing him. Wow. And thought I wish he would have just ripped out Klaus's heart, it's actually a better story this way IMO. So much more story to tell, so many more interactions for the future, and many added layers to both characters, but mostly for Elijah. He broke his word, and is blindly trusting that Klaus isn't lying about the family.
So glad that Elena is still human! Hurray! And while it was sort of predictable that John was going to die to save her, it felt like a proper cliche. It would have bugged me if there was a happy ending for everybody, so I accept how this played out. And I almost cried when John died, all alone outside with no one paying attention, not even Jeremy who knew what he had done.
Super sad about Jenna. I'm pretty much all sad faces over here. I thought the show would keep either her or John as parents, so I was shocked at how it went down. She did go out with a bang though, attacking Greta like that. Only wish she knew a good neck snapping technique to end that bitch sooner, but not bad for an hours-old vampire.
Tyler and Caroline were awesome! Was it just me, or was he totally still naked and she curled up under the blanket with him. hmm... not that I wouldn't as well but it seemed a bit weird. lol
Poor Matt. He's gotten so much flack for being one of the few humans who doesn't just roll with this vampire/supernatural business. I rather liked the fact that he'd rather have a normal life... as normal a life as an emancipated seventeen year old juggling both a job and school can have. Putting myself in his shoes throughout all this and not just looking through the lens of the mostly omniscient viewer, I can excuse a lot of his 'dickish' behavior.
I found this whole episode heartbreaking. What are Elena and Jeremy going to do now that they are orphaned? Maybe Alaric can take over? He is, in some respects, Elena's step parent.
I have never cried at a sitcom more than I did last night. I thought that Ed O'Neill was phenomenal in this episode. I could have done without Phil's silliness but I thought that Jay's emotions were right on target for someone missing their mom around Mother's Day.
My favorite line of the night was when Gloria called Claire Diablo! I also liked how reluctant she was to complain about Manny. I knew she had to have something to get off her ample chest...even if it was buried down deep.
I thought the Sam plot was overly sappy and random, especially considering they've barely done anything with him other than throw him with various girls prior to this episode. Wasn't a fan of that.
The rest was overall pretty good, although once again, uneven. Will's plot was mostly great, and might be the best Will plot since the original 13 of Season 1. The ending seemed a little flimsy, though - will they bring that plot back or not? Not really sure.
Thought Brittany/Santana were good although I thought the Artie break-up was weird and abrupt. Bored with the Rachel/Finn/Quinn stuff. We know what's going to happen with that plot anyway, why dwell on it?
It wasn't as good as Born This Way, but it was decent - nothing too horrible, and some decent characterization. Season 2 has been a huge mess, but they seem to be getting themselves together at least somewhat for this final stretch.
Oh and musically, this was the best episode since Season 1.
That last scene with Chuck and Blair was frightening.There is no way to come back from that, they better end the couple for good. Chuck is not a "tortured sould" -- he is a spoiled brat who doesn't know how to deal with his feelings and doesn't like being told no. I'm over him and all his ridiculous issues.
Would it have killed someone to do a quick google search on the Monegasque Princely Family. First off, the only one in that family that is addressed as Her Royal Highness is Princess Caroline, and that's because of her husband, everyone else is a Serene Highness. Monaco doesn't have a King or Queen and none of Prince Rainier's grandchildren have titles, except one of Caroline's daughters and that's because of her father.
I don't listen when Rufus talks so when I saw him in that leather jacket I thought he had gotten a part as T-Bird in the traveling production of Grease.
I don't even know what to make of Serena. She just can't handle it when the attention isn't on her. She couldn't even act happy for Blair. And I don't care what she says -- this has nothing to do with Dan. It's pure envy. She can't stand that Blair is now the center of attention.
Charlie is one crazy bitch but anyone that can make Vanessa look like a chump is o.k in my book.
Annie's plot seems so completely random and irrelevant. I just don't understand what the point of it all was, especially since it seems likely (given the promos, and the show's history of dropping plots) we will never hear about this women ever again.
Though I will say I enjoyed the Annie/Naomi/Teddy scene. Speaking of Teddy, I wish they would have developed Marco's and Teddy's relationship a little better. It seemed like they were dating for a few weeks now; I would have liked it more if they had at least showed their first date.
Did I miss it or did Silver have a bipolar episode and get committed by Navid and Dixon without even a mention of sister and legal guardian Kelly?
Jen makes me so sad. There was such potential there to make her an awesome soap bitch, but this show refuses to pull the trigger. And you just know she's gonna steal custody of that baby from stupid Ryan by relating that story he told her about almost burning the kid.
Really liked this one. Probably my favorite of the season. A lot of good, fun dark humor.
Susan: She didn't bother tonight and the Felicia stuff, while a bit silly, was still entertaining. I still don't buy that Susan would suddenly become buddy-buddy with Felicia, but whatever. Was that montage of her poisoning the food a fantasy or did the episode suddenly advance time a couple of weeks? I guess that makes sense if the episode did move forward, allowing time for Lynette and Rene to re-decorate Tom's office. But the timelines never match on this show anyways, so I wouldn't be surprised if the episode was in fact supposed to take place over the course of 48 hours. Also, I think this is the first time I have enjoyed a Mike line: "By the way, don't ever do that again" regarding Susan's poker playing. It was funny, a good callback to a previous episode and I know some of us were wondering what Mike would think of her gambling.
Lynette: More of the same Tom vs. Lynette bullshit. I really, really don't care enough to take a side. It's exhausting.
Bree: I liked the detective. Some of his lines were cheesy and it was ridiculous that Bree fell for them, but I still like him. I guess it will either turn into a romance or he'll end up being a creep. There aren't really any other options on this show. So I guess the two girls suddenly became good because they were afraid of Bree? I wish they would have written that/acted it out better, instead of having them approach her on the sidewalk with no hesitance at all. I at first assumed they were pretending to be good so they could fool her and then do something awful, a la Andrew in season 1/2.
Gaby: I'm on her side. It's ridiculous for Carlos to tell her who she can be friends with. I would have chosen to stay with Bree too.
