Summer Break Episode Discussion: 115 Snow Job/116 My Funny Valentine
 

Episode Summaries/Pictures

Discuss! :sun:

Thanks for starting... Snow Job was a funny episode. I liked MFV too. I liked that Andy was doing some narration.

I liked that MFV had a storyline for Edna/Irv ... and we got to see some fine acting from both actors.

Tim DeKay was fantastic as Rev. Keys. I mean, he was a great friend to Andy. Too bad they didn't have him on longer. And then the Psychiatrist, I loved how Andy acted on the date. And even though I love E/A, E/L had some great scenes in these two episodes.

Man, I wish I could comment on these episodes but with my situation at the moment, I simply don't have the time..

I will say that My Funny Valentine is one of my very favorite episodes of this entire show, so far. I love everything about it, from start to finish. Of course, I love the E/A stuff, but I even loved all the other storylines such as Andy struggling with his pain over Julia.. It was all top notch.

One last thing.. Jealous Amy rules.

Yeah, I gotta agree. Jealous Amy does rock! Very amusing :)

Snow Job- I liked the idea of them all going on a ski trip. Wish that happened at my school... :) Since I'm not much a fan of Amy/Colin, I wasn't all that moved by their scenes, but I did LOVE Ephram/Laynie. As I've always said, if for whatever reason Amy and Ephram couldn't be toetherm or if Amy weren't in the picture, Laynie would definately be my next choice for the gal to be with Ephram. (They need to bring her back!!!!!) I love the line Bright says, "If I go to hell, I'm going to be so pissed." I'm surprised Bright chose 'saving' his father over being ah.. close to his gf. And lat but not least, I like how close Andy and Revrend Keyes have gotten. I love Nina/Andy, but it was nice to see Andy with a close male friend. :)

My Funny Valentine- First off, I just love this episode title for some reason, lol. It was sad to see Andy struggling/missing Julia. It must have been really hard. I'm not sure how I feel about him and the traveling psycologist,even though it showed he was making progress, even if only a little. Moving onto another couple.. it was VERY nice to see more of the Irv/Edna relationship. I just love their dynamic. It was really mean of Irv to joke the way that he did, and it was very sad to see Edna so upset, crying in the bathroom. I did, howver, like how she copes with it: Termanator movies. Yup, that's definately Edna for ya :D I LOVED Ephram asking Laynie out. I think she really keeps him on his toes, and guessing. They are so cute together! If it weren't for me being a Greenie... :sigh:

Michelle- How you doin, girl? I'm really glad to see that your online still, taking some time to post on the board. :) :)

WORD, Ashley. I was bored out of my mind with the C/A stuff.. Not moved by it in the least. I also love Laynie and I'm totally with you that if it wasn't for E/A, I would have been a total E/L fan.

Not too bad, thanks for asking. :) I'm still in Pittsburgh. Family has been hanging out together over the weekend.. We are actually heading back to Cleveland later on this evening. I'm using my cousin's computer.. Turns out that she also frequents message boards but she mainly goes to Harry Potter sites.. Sites I frequent as well! I was showing her around Fan Forum a bit and she said she might just sign up if for only to post on the Harry Potter board. :)

Anyway, I will be back in Cleveland tonight, picking up my fixed computer tomorrow after work, and by tomorrow night, everything should be back to normal again. :)

Good :) Must me glad to get back home:)

- Dr. Abbot with the marching band! :lmao:
- I liked Gretchen with Harold, as opposed to Andy. If Rose were ever to die/killed off, I would like to see Gretchen return and shake things up. I loved her character. They should have brought her back again in S2-3.

Two of my favourite season 1 episodes!

I loved Snow Job and the Rev. Keys storyline. Some excellent acting there. I also love the scene where Colin tells Ephram how he got mad at her the night before when they kissed and the expression on Ephram's face :(

I loved everything about My Funny Valentine with maybe the exception of Andy/Gretchen since I'm a A/N fan. Great quotes, beautiful scenes and who could forget Amy being jealous, lol.

:sigh:

Ken, I also loved Gretchen.. Totally with you that the dynamic of Gretchen and Harold was OUTSTANDING. Their bantering and bickering was top notch.

Yeah, that's true... I can totally see the chemestry :) :D

I loved how Gretchen put Harold in his place.. She psychoanalyzed him to perfection and Harold damn well knew it to be the case. :lol:

I also loved how Rose signed up her and Harold for counseling with Gretchen. Priceless. :lmao:

I really enjoyed this episode, it was a fun one. The mountains in the shots were so gorgeous this episode!

Amy constantly saying that hanging out with Ephram is weird, IS WHATS MAKING IT WEIRD. I mean, shes the one that clearly cant move on from EPHRAM, not the other way around.

Laynie is cute but a bit pretentious for my taste. Her whole demeanor/attitude could just get annoying but I do appreciate that she got Ephram and his appeal.

Andy/Nina had some cute scenes this episode, I really adore their friendship and it seemed that Nina was slightly jealous about Andy going on dates.

Colin/Amy were fine this episode, sort of sweet I guess even though I dont ship them together. Colin's feelings sort of came out of nowhere for me, and the end when he sort of threatened Ephram than claimed he was joking... that whole thing was so weird.

Valentines episode was alright, didn't care for the adult storylines that were going on really but I never really seem to on shows.

Amy being jealous was veryyyyy cute to see because at first I was annoyed that she was trying to help Ephram out with Laynie so much.

I loved that Laynie saw the appeal in Ephram and really got Amy thinking, "Hey....this guy is a real prize. Why don't I appreciate that?"

Jealous Amy was so adorable...the best part of this episode!

Loved the scenery. The cast had to have been in heaven filming in Utah with such beauty surrounding them.

:lol: That's so true. Amy created more trouble due to her freaking out.

A lot of people loved Ephram/Laynie. I never shipped them but appreciated that this pairing was what brought out jealous Amy and we know that's always worth the price of admission, lol.

I love the subtle build up between Andy/Nina. You're right, there was some slight jealousy going on. :nod:

Very weird. I think the problem is we have no idea who the real Colin is at this point? Is this the real Colin or the Colin with a brain injury that's altering his behavior? It's really hard to tell at times.

Amy's jealousy was always the best! :D
