Yeah, I can definitely see the blind item being about DSM. The show has a lot of "big names" and I can all of them having egos. I also bet Peter Krause getting a producer credit this season also might have something to do with it.

Oh well, the show's not on the mid season schedule, so it looks like it's gone. :(

What an incredibly frustrating show? One week it is utter crap (i.e. the last episode aired) and then arrives this episode which was excellent and shows the series still has some spunk and promise. Apparently last week's episode was more of a clip show made up of past material and stuff from the unaired episodes from the first season.

The Wrenn storyline has been incredibly lame. I didn't see the point to it in the last episode and I really didn't see the point to it in this episode. Letiticia came across as a lunatic when she attacked Wrenn. While Leticia is more fun when she is being bitchy, she is more fun when she is justified in her actions. I wish Wrenn admitted she was after Tripp's money and let Leticia's woman's intuition be right. I will say I have no interest in the jealous harpie that Letiticia has become this season. What a bad choice! I felt like Nick was speaking for the audience when he said to Wrenn things weren't working out. Wasn't that the truth!

On the otherhand, I was delighted with Simon/Karen wedding fiasco. As the episode started, I thought it was going to be awful, but as it proceeded it was absolutely amazing. And I never saw it coming that Brian and Andrea would get married though I wish they would have featured this a bit more. I loved Brian and Brian Jr.'s scene shining shoes. You know Brian would have been the kid listening on the phone like his son did. I loved Brian's honesty with Andrea. Andrea's reaction to his "I love you" was great. Everything about Andrea and Brian was amazing.

The Darling Enterprises trade was brilliant. I love how all Tripp's contacts dumped Simon Elder in a minute causing the stock to plummet. LOL. I love how Karen arrived after the wedding was called off. Simon was a jerk to Karen and Karen showed how vulernable she is. Hopefully, now that not only Simon, but Nick, have betrayed her, Karen will make her own play for the company to get back at all the men who she loves that have hurt her: Simon, Nick, and Tripp. I do hope we see more of Simon/Tripp running the company.

I'm beginning to like the Tripp/Nola/Jeremy situation. Delicious stuff. At times, Jeremy is such the overdressed, spoiled male diva that thrive on soap operas. I really liked how Jeremy got the senator to agree to the deal leaving Nola in the cold.

Overall, great episode this week.

    • It's funny to think one of the only later mentions of Justin/Sarah was in The Guiding Plight. They had some decent chemistry in the 1976 episode put out on DVD.
    • Very. They're building up his story again and picking the perfect time to do so. As the SilkPress storyline climaxes and go off in several great directions, they are building up that story to take a turn.

    • @Soapsuds Thanks for posting Night by night Mon 8pm The Rookies edged Gunsmoke but attracted younger(more desirable) viewers.NBC failed with Born Free/Smothers Brothers (how many different series did those 2 get??) 9-11pm  Maude/Rhoda/Medical Center dominated on CBS,but Football and Movies were competitive on an occasional basis. ABC tried  SWAT/Caribe later in the season and the former worked for them. Tues 8-11 pm CBS all the way Good Times, MASH, Hawaii Five O,Barnaby Jones. NBC had the fading Adam 12,Movie and Police Story mmm...don't see that listed? ABC Happy Days, which ABC decided to keep despite lackluster ratings, the Movie of the Week and Marcus Welby-once pulling big numbers but no longer. 8pm NBC had a new hit with Little House, easily beating Sons and Daughters, which was axed and replaced with Tony Orlando, which did much better. ABC had That's My Mama and the Wed movie. 9pm Cannon was the lead here as Lucas Tanner failed to capitalize on the LHOTP leadin. ABC continued the movie. 10pm Manhunter started strong for CBS but petered out and was cancelled. Petrocelli manged to beat Get Christie Love, which was replaced by Baretta-no ratings winner but ABC decided to renew. Thurs Another CBS night with The Waltons and a movie. ABC counterprogrammed with Odd Couple/Paper Moon then Barney Miller/Karen NBC did even worse with Sierra and replaced it with Mac Davis which improved ratings quite a bit. However, it was moved to 9pm for Sunshine/Bob Crane 9pm Some good numbers for ABC with Streets of San Francisco fending off Ironside,Archer and Mac Davis. 10pm Harry O had a slim victory over Movin On Fri 8-11 NBCs best night Sanford/Chico/Rockford/Police Woman. 8pm CBS had high hopes for Planet of the Apes but it bombed. Replacement Khan did even worse. Paul Sand and We'll Get By were tossed in at the end of the season. With poor lead ins the Friday movie didn't deliver. ABC's odd line up saw Kodiak flop, Six Million dollar Man struggle and Texas Wheelers  quickly cancelled. Kung Fu was brought in @8 and Six Million moved to 9. Then Kolchak took over at 8 and Hot*l Baltimore/Odd Couple 9-10. Despite controversy Hot*l flopped. 10pm ABC tried Kolchak then Baretta and finally Get Christie Love Sat CBS lead  with #1 AITF then Paul Sand/MTM/Bob Newhart/Carol Burnett. Paul Sand lost too much of the lead in so CBS spun off The Jeffersons and it was a smash. NBC did OK with Emergency (which beat Paul Sand on occasion, thus hastening that show's demise) and a movie. ABC was a disaster with New Land/Kung Fu and Nakia all failing. They introduced a movie @9 and moved Kung Fu to 8. Sun  NBC  with Disney and Mystery Movie (Columbo McCloud, MacMillan and Wife/Amy Prentiss)did well. ABC flopped with Sonny Bono and recovered by moving Six Million Dollar Man from Fri as a lead in to the movie. CBS hoped Apples Way would be another Waltons but no, so Cher did what Sonny couldn't. Kojak and Mannix successfully finished out the night. Two other shows on the ratings list were Adams of Eagle Lake starring Andy Griffith. Only 2 episodes aired and did well, so I'm not sure what happened there. As for The Law it was a series follow up to a 2 and a half hour NBC special movie .

    • Trust is very easily lost and very hard to re-build.
    • Oh, I know it was. I was just talking about how it's not giving me parallels to Caroline dying. It's really as far from it as possible.  But about the foreshadowing - Hahahhahah. Yes. And you missed one - Liam googling - "what is cancer"...
