Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!

Sorry just impatiently waiting for this ep

Lots and lots of Drew.

Really good episode. Lauren rocked, as did John Corbett.

Finally an end to the Haddie drama.

It's about time Crosby stood up to Jasmine.

Next week looks pretty intense.

ETA: Loved Sarah resting her head on Zeek's arm. So sweet.

Sadly I got home late and missed the first half of the show, but the last 2 minutes killed me! At least it seems like that story line has wrapped up for the time being....

Wow. I totally LOVED this episode! Everything about it was wonderful. Kinda tired now, so I'll post more tomorrow but just a couple of things:

Favorite moment- Sarah laying her head on Daddy's arm.

Sarah was a great mom in this episode. She protected her kids without preventing them from seeing their Dad. Very nice.

Max got a haircut!

Glad to see Haddie home.

I don't blame Crosby for being frustrated with Jasmine. Crosby does kinda allow her to do it though. Not anymore, I guess. Not liking what I'm seeing with him in the preview for next week.

Still not much Julia.

ETA: Hate to bring up a sore point for some, but this is definitely the episode Lauren needs to submit for awards consideration. She rocked!

Really liked this episode.

I liked Zeek's talking-to to Sarah. It's like she needed to hear that to step back and let her kids start to build their own relationship with Seth, without her involvement.

And apparently Amber didn't just get her weepy tendencies from her mom...it seems both her parents have a tough time keeping a dry eye when things are stressful.

This episode was so so so great.

Lauren and Mae were amazing.
It was so cute seeing Amber trying to take care of her little brother.
Sarah was great. She tried to protect her kids (specially Drew), but realized she had to let him get closer to his dad so he can make his own mind about Seth in the future.


Oh I loved that!

I'm too tired to comment about Haddie and Crosby now. I'll do it tomorrow.
Oh and from what we can see in the promo, it looks like next ep will be good too.

Wow, GREAT epi! Definitely one of the best I've seen all season!

Lauren, John, Miles & Mae were excellent I can't get over how intense their scenes were without losing a beat! John is perfect as Seth, really fills out that character well with so much depth. Yes, I too was really touched seeing Sarah rest her head on Zeek's arm, such an honest & intimate moment and was portrayed so poignantly with no dialogue. And there is such a strong chemistry right off the bat between Lauren & John...I mean in the sense that they play off each other extremely well. It's so effective w/ Sarah obviously still struggling with how she feels towards him & all the hurt & pain he's caused her, their kids & her family. Looks to be an engrossing story arc.

FINALLY Crosby stood up to Jasmine! Wow, what an intense fight and I felt sad seeing him back on his boat w/ the Chinese food leftovers on the barren floor.

Alex & Haddie's moments were sweet & I'm so happy she's back at home. Seems that little talk w/ her grandmother did some good, good onya Camille! Cute shot of them playing B-ball together.

Wow, I can't WAIT for next week's episode, looks to be packed with heavy drama! Aww, I love this show!

lgfan

Oh, how could I forget "you hurt them again, I'll kill you"? I already knew about this line from the sides but I totally didn't expect Lauren to deliver it with a half-smile on her face. Very interesting!

I'm so tired but adrenaline is not allowing me to go to sleep. It's been awhile since I've felt this way about an episode. So glad.

WoW! A really great episode. I really loved how strong a show this was.
Lauren rocked! I liked how Sarah was so upset but still stepped back at
let Drew go see Seth. I really like the dramatics in this episode. John nailed
it pretty good too. I loved the father daughter scenes with Sarah and Zeek.
And it was about time that Crosby stood up to Jasmine.
I liked the Basketball at the end too. I thought it was good that Adam and
Kristina compromised with Haddie.

Another good solid ep,

Love the opening with a song, reminded me of the pilot. nice to see Drew and Amber get a decent story and some screen time, John was great as Seth in his 'Emmy Moment" after Sarah went to see him. The music this week was particularly good, I know it will come up eventually but do we know if the songs Seth played were from John's band or writing for the show? While Shazam (on my iPhone) was able to pick up 3 of the other tracks I couldn't ID Seth band.

Okay enough of that, it was nice to see Sarah having a different attitude to Adam/Kristina and allowing them to go see their father, it was kinda nice not to have Sarah there.

Now on to the others, Haddie. I think the story kinda ended a little quick for my tastes, Camille talks to Haddie then she goes home and her parents allow her to see Alex, maybe they came to their sensors I don't know, not sure if I liked the Disney ending with them hugging then playing basketball together. I'm sure we haven't seen the end of this.

And Crosby, yes about time he snapped. As Zeek would say Jasmine was wearing the pants in their relationship and I'm glad he let her know how he was feeling, still hope they can work things out (I haven't seen next weeks promo).

Other notable points, yes it was cute to see Sarah resting her head on Zeek's arm also having that talk about Seth, maybe she does still have feelings for the father of her kids. Just hope they don't go down the same path as Lorelai & Chris, sorry it had to be said.

Also I love how Max told his parents about the basketball practice without realizing what he was saying, it must be hard for Adam to hear Max wants Alex to teach him.

lancer1993

Yes loved that line, and the way Lauren delivered it!

There is one sure fire way to get to sleep... a hot cup of milk

Really enjoyed this episode, and usually i look forward to Parenthood all week, then it good, but not as amazing as i think it will be, you know in my head, but this week it really was!

I had been looking forward to this episode for a while, i like the Seth drama, seems they were building it up and up and finally we got to see it!

Im going to go into more detail later, got up extra early on my day off this week to watch, so ima nap, and be back later.

"you hurt them again, ill kill you"

Wow! it was really good, of course we had seen most of the episode in the sneak peak but it was good nevertheless...

I know Lauren is such a great actress and i see it, but i always thought she was better in comedy, i always thought that she should be doing comedy, but this episode taught me wrong!
three fantastic scenes with differente men.
Wow... the scene with drew, amanzing and with seth it was just speachless...

I'm so happy the drama with alex and haddie is over!

and I have never hated jasmine like I did in this episode! OMG im really wishing that they dont get married! crosby deserves so much better, of course then i think about jabar and is another story!

I agree with everyone on the last scene where sarah rest in her fathers arm! cute and it just so well play! fantastic actors

Danke

So this morning I did it. It was the first time that I woke up so so early to be able to watch the show before going to work. That´s how I was excited to see this eppy.lol
It was great episode all around but somehow I selfishly thought that the Sarah story would be the most prominent in the episode and it didn´t feel like it. I liked the Crosby/Jasmine fight but kind of felt like "hurry hurry up so we can get back to Sarah/Seth" during the Haddie´s parts. I was just too jazzed about Sarah family that I couldn´t wait to see it.

The Crosby/Jasmine fight was great cos they both had valid points and so itś harder to pick a side. they were both right in a way.

My most favorite scene was Zeek´s reaction to Sarah´s "he was love of my life" and then Sarah´s look. That told me there has to be soo much history behind this. It made me see how it was probably so hard for Sarah to admit that there´s something wrong with Seth and that it probably took a while for her to see that they would be better on their own. Her "he is sick, I see that now" told me all that. Briliant little scene for me.

I´m glad we are over the Haddie drama for now, though I have to admit that I may have rolled my eyes tiiiiny little bit at the final basketball scene....shoot me.lol
