Thanks for the new thread tigg, Was about to start the new one myself. And Welcome Back

tigger21

Neel! Missed you, all of you guys Its been awhile since Ive properly visited the boards. Thanks for the welcome, its always good to be back.

BTW I dont think Ive had a chance to properly gush over the first post of this thread, shows that I have been away awhile But yeah sqeeeee the caps & clips are fantastic, the Becauses just keep on growing Great job everyone!

Miela

Just nabbed this from the spoiler forum. Doesn't look good - dammnit writers! It looks like they are gonna draw this one out till next season....don't expect any resolution this year. It's all about frikkin Gates!

TVGuide.com: What about the wild-card crush that Ray has on her? Does that come out soon?
Nagra: Ray has always been there in the background for Neela. A lot of people desperately want those two to be together. But I think we've got a few more years to go, I think we're going to torture people for a little bit longer. Even I don't know. These writers are like the hands of god. Like, "Oh, why don't we put this character over here now and see what happens."

criss128

Thanks for the new thread, tigger

nonobsessed

I was bummed too when I read that, but I think her answer is more vague than it seems. I don't think ER has "years" left (maybe another season or 2, which is fine, I wasn't expecting our 'ship to sail until next season anyway), and there's probably stuff she doesn't know about yet or just can't give away...hopefully...

Emony2

lalalalalalala... I'm not looking. Was that really a spoiler? 'Cause if so, can you put it behind spoiler tags? Can't quite remember the rules on spoilers these days... I can't believe I can't remember.... Thanks

Tigg: Welcome back, hon. No worries on the reaction post... I enjoy it. I can also tell how good an episode was by the number of emails piling up in my inbox before I get to see it It's also great fun too

Neel: hey, hon. How's life?

Em

amberlm2403

BTW, new thread looks great!


PS. Why aren't the spoiler tags working? Am I the only one having this problem? Or am I doing something wrong?

ETA ... So there were no scenes. Was this the breaking episode to the hiatus?

I know I say this a lot, but just when I thought I couldn't love Ray any more ... I'm kinda peeved though because Shane once said that he's had all of these love interests, but the audience has never gotten to so much as see them kiss... Well, I started to think, wouldn't it be so awesome if Neela was Ray's first on-screen kiss? But No. Katie had to go and ruin that.

Good kiss though ... On Ray's side at least. (HeHe.)

theirishgirl

New Thread!

Thanks to all those who gave me Roomie d/l tips

Am a bit shaky. Forgive me..it's 3am odd here...and I just got mugged right outside my house. I'm in my neighbours across the road. Police came and everything and I'm in shock..they took everything..my bag....keys..purse..money..phone...a guy and a girl..he practically strangled me with my own hood from my coat....I fought back without even knowing why..but it certainly makes you see the value of what you're doing with your life..I just got some scrapes on my knees and bruising to my cheeks. I'm okay. The guy just kept shouting at me.."don't fight..don't fight"..but I kept fighting till the bitter end..self preservation I guess. It's all a bit surreal. The police reckon they could have followed me off the bus. I gave them a fair description of both but it'll not do any good..they'll be off spending my hard earned (14 hour day) money on crack by now. I wouldn't normally be out this late but I was working..we had put some live bands on in a venue in central London...I was on my way home..all but at my door. This girl (with the guy beside her) asks me some random question about the estate up the road...what it was called. I apologised..said I didn't know..but it was fairly big and they should find who they were looking for...she said thanks..I turned away..next thing the guy had pulled my hood over my head and pulled it back against my throat tackling me to the ground. Of course my first thought was..'omg..I'm...I'm getting mugged'...I started kicking and screaming..and curled into the ground gripping my bag..and he started kicking and pulling at me while she held me..'don't fight..don't fight'...I think she pulled my arms back while he took my bag...then they were running off..I jumped up and stood there in shock as I saw them run off down the road. I looked across the road and these three guys were stood there with their mouths open going..'what happened?'..I'm like..'I got mugged'..and they're..'jesus..we thought there was something wrong'..but....in the back of my mind I'm like.. you saw a girl on her own get attacked to the ground no less by a couple taller than her in both size and stature and you didn't do anything?! (I'd seen them out of the side of my eye on the other side of the road before the girl asked me the question (presumably to distract me)...I stumbled to my neighbour's house and knocked on his door in tears. He called the police..I did the statement/ridealong thing..cancelled my bank cards.....drank some brandy and here I am.

Roomies will come through..just like I did

amberlm2403

OMG That really sucks. I'm glad everything is okay with you though. Wow. What a scary thought. I'm watching the news right now, and it's talking about a line of rapes that is happening in my area. And how one of the suspects is still on the loose. LoL. I hate the news. Always makes me so scared. Seriously, I think the news is worse than a scary movie.

It really seems like the nerve of people is getting stronger. I can't believe those guys didn't do something though. I mean. It seems fairly obvious that if you were fighting, kicking. That if there was even an ounce of what looked like some sort of struggle than they'd do SOMETHING. Better safe than sorry, I'd think.

theirishgirl

I know..in retrospect I'm just glad they didn't pull a knife on me or something..it could have been worse. A lot worse. I guess Good Samaritans are few and far between though.

scarletumbrella

Dude. Duuude. I see you're all busy getting your reactions in order. I'll leave the analyzing to y'all (you're much better at it than I am), but can I just say: Ray vs. Gates at the end of the ep there... said it ALL. I know there are differing opinions over what seems like a decision by TPTB to take it veerrrryy sloooowwwlly with our beloved Roomies, but I for one find it excruciating. That said, at least they're giving us stuff to work with more consistently now. I hope it continues!

Also, on a side note, Ray was looking SO FINE this ep in that jacket and those jeans. Duude. Almost made me forget my Winchester boys... Almost.

P.S. Emony2 - Icon love! Daniel is a god.

ETA: Oh man, theirishgirl - that's awful! Glad you're okay.

tigger21

Omigod irishgirl so glad that you are okay and so sad to hear what happened to you! You must still be in shock! Good thing you went to your neighbors place. I hope the police catch those two. What is it with pple these days?! Those guys just standing around and not doing anything....ugh. Take care of yourself hun, rest up! My thoughts are with you and plz check in with us when you can!

Okay, a few things. Haven't watched the episode yet, cause I'm too tired tonight, and it's nothing that won't keep till tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the Ray vs. Gates. And sometimes the scenes between Ray or Neela and the other characters are more important than the scenes between Ray and Neela themselves. Sounds like this is one of those times.

Second, I didn't edit the little snip from the Parminder interview, because it's technically not a spoiler. It doesn't give any specific plot information, it's very vague, and she said herself that even she doesn't know the specifics. I am asking, however, for further discussion on it to be restricted to the spoiler thread or LJ post. And, in future, please keep the discussion on stuff originally posted at the spoiler thread, over at the spoiler thread. Thanks. I've left my thoughts and comments on the interview over at LJ.

Third, irishgirl: Glad you're okay, hun. I can't imagine how scary an experience that was. But you're right, it could've been much, much worse. I'm so thankful it wasn't.

Tigg: Thanks for the new thread, hun. Already updated the Board Map.
