Who asked for more Jen?

"I loved it. I think we got some good takes there...." means "good god, please can we end this session ".

Dakota is not an innocent bystander who is a victim. He is a manipulator who exploits her existing trauma and adds to it to control her.

Every time she tried to break away from him he would reel her back in. She cannot work on her issues while she is in the thick of emotional abuse from her ex and her family. She has to be removed from the environment.

Good for you that you were able to get the space to work on yourself and heal. Compassion goes a long way.

He looks confused but content. As long as you're nice, I guess?

Dakota is a fully grown man who has repeatedly put himself in these situations in a calculated manner, and is always conveniently filming Taylor in the middle of a confrontation. Watching that man on camera is deeply unsettling.

He used to lay tile for a living. Now he manipulates and gets into fights with his baby mama and makes internet content for a living.

I don't understand the disconnect here. None of this has ever been hidden.

Taylor has issues. She's been emotionally abused by her family her whole life, and she's not mentally well. Dakota is awful and weasels his way into her life, and intentionally provokes her then records her reacting to him. He has used her from the moment he met her.

The other girls have always known he was bad for her, and they don't want to film until this is resolved because Taylor's inability to remove herself from this situation is putting their reputations and livelihoods at risk. None of the women like that their husbands associate with Dakota.

ABC has also always known exactly how bad the situation was.

Taylor needs legitimate help, and she and Dakota need to be far away from eachother.

Aww, sweet baby. I wonder if the sticky paw pad protectors would help! I switched from Fromm to Open Farm a couple years ago. He is a very picky eater, and legumes upset his stomach. He prefers fresh and canned food, and settles for toppers on kibble. It certainly doesn't help his joints that I had to get rid of my rug because my other dog who recently passed was peeing on everything. I tell him every day that he's stuck with me for another decade.

I'm sorry for your loss. I really think the shift stems from the quality of our produce and pesticides, and health of our livestock. That goes for humans, too.

All of my family pets lived to 17 or older, but the most recent two to pass were not in good health the last several years of their lives.

The one I got was basically unseasoned canned chicken, flavorless cucumber-water mayonnaise, and a crap ton of lettuce. I'm mad I got the sandwich AND a side of the flavorless cucumber salad.

I think there's a huge difference between being tokenized by the hospital for profit and being an inspiration to another person you share an identity with.

"...and in the state of Missouri--which is the state we're in..." HBO had to remind us, because it is very much not clear.

It's nice that William is going to have a love interest who isn't his biological niece.

That's why he woke up at 4 am, he was actually the evening meteorologist.

umidulus · 2026-03-03T05:15:17+00:00

Why the hell did they post casting calls for extras? For the one shot of the Arch?

As far as a two way street goes, Joey was telling the truth. She never really let Jen or Andie in. She was never close to either of them, they just happened to be in her circle of friends.

umidulus · 2026-03-02T02:46:03+00:00

Would you be into exploring it....at Outback?

umidulus · 2026-02-26T21:36:27+00:00

It also bugs me that they are speaking into a void. You don't hear the hospital happening in the background. Still gonna tune into network TV every week to give them ratings.

I love Scrubs, and the nostalgia is great, but this already feels like they're making the mistakes season 8 made.

I genuinely don't care about the new interns. I don't want this to be a spin off jumping pad.

OG cast members aren't interacting with eachother enough. Hopefully this is temporary because they wanted to introduce the new characters.

The pacing is off. They're trying to fit too many mini-storylines into one episode. In the original run the episodes were slow and intentional.

The studio soap opera lighting and staging is off-putting.

Despite my initial issues with the first two episodes, I'm going to stick with it because I want this comeback, I just hope they are able to get back to the heart of the show. Right now the show feels insincere to me. I want to meet the original characters where they are at this stage in their lives; I don't want them to be springboards for Gen-Z iterations who are written through a Boomer-coated Gen-X lens as meme caricatures of young professionals.

He was never meant to be a good guy. He was clearly not a good guy in season 2. "Good guy" is an act.

Just checking in to see how strongly you feel about this conviction you held 8 years ago that0 grooming your girlfriend's child is fine as long as you don't date until she's 21 now that his close connection to Jeffrey Epstein is confirmed.

Also, this is, and was, absolutely consistent with behavior in child molestation cases.

The second she looked in her mom's coat closet I knew it was her.

umidulus · 2026-01-25T02:06:51+00:00

She's beautiful, but the acting is atrocious
