This is the Parenthood General Discussion thread. As any other

thread, if not specified otherwise, this is a spoiler-free thread.
Please respect the

spoilers rules:

Quote:

Spoilers:

• No spoilers about any new or current television shows are allowed on the television show forums, and they should only be posted on the Spoilers Forum. Information is considered to be a spoiler if it details something that has not yet been broadcast anywhere in the world. Promos that have already aired on television and small episode descriptions are not considered to be spoilers.
• Spoilers are allowed on the Male and Female Celebrity Forums as long as the spoilers are limited to information about the character that the actor or actress is playing on the television show that they’re on, and they’re not about the overall show. Spoilers on these forums should only be posted to discuss the upcoming work of the actor or actress, and they must be posted in separate topics and be clearly identified with the word Spoiler in the title.
• Spoiler threads for upcoming movies are permitted on the Movies forum or on forums that are devoted to a movie franchise, as long as they're clearly identified with the word Spoiler in the title. Spoilers should not be discussed on the general threads on these forums.
• Spoilers for new books should only be discussed at the Spoilers Forum prior to the official release of the book.

Pictures
• Pictures from promos that have already aired on television, been shown at the movie theatre, or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
• Pictures of clips, episode stills and filming pictures of scenes from an upcoming episode or movie that are available on the Internet and have not been aired on television or have not been shown at the movie theatre before the movie is released are considered to be spoilerish, and they should only be posted in designated threads for the upcoming episode or movie.

Avatars
• Avatars made from promos that have already aired on television, been shown at the movie theatre, or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
• Avatars made from pictures of clips, episode stills from official websites, and filming pictures of scenes from an upcoming episode or movie should not be used until after the episode airs or until the movie is released, because avatars can be seen all over Fan Forum, and we want to respect the wishes of members that don’t want to see any spoilers for an upcoming episode.

Episode descriptions
• Small snippets/blurbs from TV Guide/Entertainment Weekly etc. are fine.
• Longer episode descriptions (like for example the ones FOX provides), are considered to be spoilerish and should just be discussed on the episode discussion thread until the episode airs or they should be posted with spoiler tags in various threads on the television boards here.

Thank you,
Shannon and Val

giggles. As Lauren´s fan, I´m used to expected always the worse. we got really bruised several times this year. pout. People here are too optimistic, I feel like I should balance it out.lol

Thanks Val!

No more booty calls for Sarah

Thanks for the new thread.

Maybe Lauren's character will be the comic relief having to move back home, maybe the black sheep of the family?

and from the last one...

I just don't like how it was used in GG but I'm getting help for my problems

Also, the name of the band is the "Christian TV Band" -- it's not a thing - it's just their name.

Bad Katka!!!

You silly girl.

First of all, I'm assuming you're partially talking about Guys and Dolls - don't forget that there was a time when the group of you who got to see it together were pretty sure it was going close before you even got there. But you got to see it - and her!! Plus, Lauren has said so many times what a dream-come-true-experience it was for her. So, I guess some could chalk it up as an unsuccessful experience - but in my mind way too many good things came out of it for that to be true. And this is coming from someone who had to see the understudy once and had to do some serious scrambling and rearranging (which sucked) at the end because I had tickets for the week after it ended up closing. When all is said and done, I am so very proud of Lauren and was so impressed by this chapter of her career.

As far as Lauren's career in general, here is someone that has consistently and successfully worked as an actor for over 15 years . . . not an easy accomplishment! There are thousands of actors in Los Angeles and New York that will back me up on this.

But most of all, I feel if we're not positive and excited and supportive of this show why would we expect anyone else to be? I want people to watch it, so I'm not willing to doubt it at every turn.

Hihi, Michelle, and you sure are the over positive person I was thinking of

Hugs you. BUT.lol Yes, I was talking partly about GaD, where we were all excited and then the opening night came and we read all the reviews. That was really painful for me. Then again, the news that it´s closing. Still remember the text message I got from Denise. I just wish it would run longer.
And the second thing was Let it Go where we were SURE it would be picked up and than it was over. Then TAM, playing in like 5 cinemas after the release. Stuff like that. I just learned not to expect things anymore.

Im really excited about the show and I´m looking for it but I won´t be over positive about it. There´s still lots of things that can go wrong. But I guess we can be sure we´ll see 13 eppies at least

Tell us americans when you see the new promo on tv

The top ten shows we’re looking forward to in 2010
By Allison Williams

9. Parenthood (NBC, premieres March 1): Of all the new midseason dramas (crime drama Happy Town, postapocalyptic Day One), none has the potential to be a downer like Parenthood, a family drama so much in the vein of Brothers and Sisters that it’s basically a clone. But Lauren Graham plays a wayward sister (replacing an ill Maura Tierney), and we’ll follow the erstwhile Lorelei Gilmore (not to mention Peter Krause of Six Feet Under) anywhere.

not sure about the downer anymore.
