Does anybody else watch this?

I love it!!! Nearly as much as 'Heroes'.

I can't even explain why I love it, as it can get quite mawkish and over-sentimental. It definitely fills the gap which 'thirtysomething' left in my life.

I get teary eyed over this shit too!

It's strange, isn't it? Especially when I consider that I don't actually like many of the characters. I actually like Patrisssssha Wetting's character the most. She's like some suburban Alexis to Sally Field's Krystle.

You are obsessed with Dynasty Everytime I see/hear/think about it I think about you

"Stay out of this Krystal"

I was obsessed with Sammy-Jo.....

I had a "Dynasty moment" just before Christmas. My whole life is drama, drama, drama...

I may post about it all later in the week. It was like something out of a movie. You really couldn't make it up. Well, you could make it all up - but it would seem implausible. It was mental. Bizarrely, Dynasty actually came into it...

I'd need three straight hours to write it all down. It was hideous!

Justin1972UK said:

If you can't post it publicly, please post it privately!!! Enquiring minds want to know

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I'll post it publically. It'll just take me hours to go through it all in my head.

Although the actual drama only really occurred for three weeks in December, the back-story was brewing for over two years (at least). I was completely oblivious.

I'll pour myself a whiskey and start a new thread.

LOVE IT

It is a bit preposterous though, isn't it?

I can accept that Nora might want to communicate with her late husband's mistress (if only out of curiosity), but it's completely unrealistic that she hasn't attempted to strangle her brother Saul.

And Kitty is the most annoying character on television at the moment. But I suppose she's entertainingly annoying.

Aren't we still missing the final chapter - or have I missed it?

I'm nowhere near the final chapter.

I just had reservations about carrying on with the story. Closet-case Andy emailed me during the week and I felt bad that I was talking about him behind his back.

I don't know why he's continuing to email me though. We were never friends before all this.

I just phoned Peter twenty minutes ago, asking if he wanted to go for a drink with me and my family, later this afternoon. A considerable number of my family (including my 87 year-old Grandma) all go out for a drink every Sunday afternoon. The booze-hounds.

Well, Peter declined. as he felt that he'd shown himself up, the last time he was with my family. I'd been talking about re-training as a plumber (yes, really). In response, Peter said to my family: "Could you imagine if Jus was a plumber? He'd come around to your house saying 'Let me see your ball-cock'. Ha! Ha! Ha!"... I was like He said it in this sort of pervy-cab-driver sort of voice.

He was as drunk as a skunk.

Go with your gut instinct - I'll stop nagging for the rest of the story, .


One of my most successful and content friends is a plummer, he's done it his whole life and has never regretted his choice.

Justin1972UK said:

Yup, I've been watching this... It's a bit like Thirtysomething meets Knots landing, imo. I'm not in love with it but it's been rather engaging. I almost gave up after the first two episodes but it seemed to improve after that.
Patricia Wettig is always good.

That woman bugs the shit outta me Every single word she says is SO tempered - she literally takes too long to talk imo And I'm not a fan of plastic surgery or anything but one eye is so much droopier than the other I almost want her to get surgery for that thing...

I know, I sound like an ass

Let me guess... you make coffee nervous, right?

I've been in love with Rachel Griffiths since Six Feet Under. I keep telling myself to check out this show, but I never seem to find the time.

It's good to know it hasn't been cancelled. Earlier on, the ratings weren't so great and the critics were panning it.

jtfolden said:

The thing is I consider myself a pretty patient person But damn, when she hits the screen I just want that shit OVAH Maybe I'm focusing too much on the eye or something

Lammastide said:

Me, too. So far, I've only seen the first episode of Brothers & Sisters (the second is airing tonight here in Denmark) and I'm not sure what to think of the series yet, but Rachel Griffiths was a stand-out in the first episode.

I'll be watching the second episode tonight to see if the series may grab me, yet.

It's good.

Not THEE best show on rite now. I only watch it cuz its after housewives.

They need to put some lookers on there, theres no one hot.

CalhounSq said:

True dat!

SureThing said:

yeah, I wanted to like the show, but I'm not crazy about it.

I like the actors, and I thought this could fill part of the void left by 6 Feet Under, but it's too much sensitive not enough interesting.

Maybe it'll find its way.

SureThing said:

Well, I just watched the second episode and maybe it's just me, but I kinda dig the gay guy.

Lammastide said:

Yup, she's the reason I noticed the show to begin with and then I noticed Ken Olin and Patricia Wettig were attached so I finally checked it out.



They must be rather pleased with it as they've ordered an additional 2 episodes for the season.

Was this actually on, on Sunday? I searched ScrapeTorrent.com for s01e14 and nobody appears to have uploaded it. I need my fix!

Justin1972UK said:

yeah it was--oh I could ruin it for you!

NO. Episode 14 does not air until Feb. 11th. There was no new episode this week.

I have to dowload this show. It's one of those shows that I know I'll like but I never watch. The cast is incredible.
