SO MUCH EMBARRASSMENT FOR ALL INVOLVED. I though the sneak peek was cute, so I had a bit of hope, but that was worse than I expected.

I'm trying to think of something positive to say. The cast is beautiful.

No just…pointless. Everyone already has the happy end.

The show REALLY has nothing left to tell/say/show/whatever.

It’s over.

Yes, it's just completely obvious that they don't know what to do anymore, or really care which is the part that makes me sad.

No they don't care. Sometimes I can see the cast still trying, mostly Joy...but more often then not I think mentally most of them checked out long ago, writers especially.

Anyway on to the ep...Haley was really cute/adorable. Waley Haley, lol. I like that she was concerned for Jamie.

I didn't like Brooke and Quinn teasing the girls, you don't stop bullying by being bullies. Did Brooke tease the girls by saying she had chickeny legs? Didn't Lucas call Peyton that?

That end NH scene & when Nathan smiled in the car made me realise just how much I miss NH. I want NH back. Full time. They were flirty, after the last two eps of them acting more like roomies, it was nice to see them back to their flirty self. Still wish it was longer and more though and my god can someone tell the edit guy to NOT FADE AWAY WHEN THEY KISS!!!! How many times do we have to say it?!!!!

Another filler ep while NH still haven't talked much about their baby girl. I don't get it.

No comment My mom always tells me if you have nothing nice to say then don't say it. I think I will follow that advice for today.

It was a filler/silly episode for sure. But honestly, i've seen worse, like when people are in a coma and watch themselves as ghosts or dream about who killed someone etc...Not the best for sure, but not the worst either.

Just from only watching the promo and the sneak peek it goes down as my least favorite ep ever. I can't even imagine my thoughts if I had actually watched the whole ep.

Wow filler much?

But I'll take whatever OTH gives me

So Alex sings and apparently even better than Mia

Mouth/Millie will live together, I kinda find them cute.

Chase & Chuck?

Wow Brooke really, really needs a job

The costumes were pretty cool though.
The names LMAO.

Clay - 1, Kellerman - 0.

Next episode look all lovey dovey!

Yeah there’s been worse.

Honestly it’s filler but at least it’s not sleep inducing mind numbing boredom like the second half of S5 or like anything Nathan has had the past 3 seasons with his wash, rinse, repeat storylines. Sure that scene where the girls face the bullies was second hand embarrassment but at least it didn’t want me to die from boredom like some eps have.

I will take Haley and the other girls dressing up as superheroes & making fools of themselves any day over Nathan studying and returning dogs to his professor.

So if OTH is running out of ideas I prefer the silly stuff to the watching grass grow is more exciting stuff.

I just wish amongst all this filler they would at least give us some more NH and baby talk and less H propping Brooke and N propping CLay. It would put my annoyances with the other stuff way down if we could at least get that.

I agree, there's definitely been worse. I think getting secondhand embarrassment is better than being mindnumbingly bored or super enraged. And I definitely still think the stupidest thing on the show ever was the Dan reveal in 410.
