The Bonnie/Lauren scene was awesome, they were both so great. I wish they would focus more on Sarah's family because I find their story the most interesting and not just because I love LG. I feel the show revolves too much around Adam's family but they don't ever do anything and have no real storyline... so it's just boring.
Zeek was hilarious in this episode. I loved his "i'm an irrational hardass" line. Julia is still annoying. Crosby is still awesome. Drew is still missing which makes me sad. __________________

An enjoyable episode.
Damien is an idiot. Amber is finally getting it. Zeek and Camille were in this episode a lot. I love Bonnie Bedelia. Max crawling in bed with Adam and Kristina -- adorable. __________________

I really liked this episode a lot. I'm liking Jasmine more and more and like the idea of her and Crosby together. I enjoyed seeing more of Zeek and Camille this episode and the scene with Camille and Sarah was just wonderful. Really a very good episode. The only storyline I didn't like was the one with Julia and the rubber band ball. It just seemed sort of pointless to me, like they were just looking for a storyline for her.
I feel like Sarah's storylines are getting better and better and allowing Lauren to shine as an actress. Does anyone play sad better than her? I think not! Just a glimpse of Drew this week. To be honest I don't really miss him. Not that I don't like him. I just can do with out without him. Damien is so, so good looking but he is a freakin' flake. So glad Amber gave him the boot. Next week, Jim returns. Can't wait! __________________

Good epi tonight. My mom says it was her favorite. Probably would agree it was. I just enjoy watching this show every week with my mother who then finds a way to turn it into 20 question's of, "Did you ever hate me?" "Did you ever sneek around?" "Did you ever smoke pot?" "Did you think I was a cool mom?" "Did I ever annoy you?"
Thank you PH even as an adult I am now finding myself having to answer (or still deny) questions that my mother has now found it amusing to ask after all these years!! I just love the bonding time we've put into our tuesday evenings |

Sarah, Amber and Camille made me cry today. Such great scenes between mothers/daughters. Sarah's story is definitely more interesting than the other ones. But I liked Jabbar's bday party, it was funny to see the two families together.
Zeek talking to Damien was hilarious! "You left your sock in my house, but you took my granddaughter’s innocence." - ouch! And where the hell is Drew?? I miss the boy from the shower. |

I liked the majority of the storylines in this episode. The Crosby stuff was pretty good and held my interest more than usual, and I LOVED seeing more Zeek and Camille.
Loved the scene between Sarah/Amber when Amber told her that every time she heard her talk about her mistakes, all she could think was that her existence was a mistake. That scene was powerful and well acted. However... Sarah crying in every episode is getting kind of depressing. I mean, it makes sense for her to be emotional given that she's in a bad place in life but yeesh. I want more Drew! I miss him. __________________

I totally cracked up when Christina offered to get Adam the lotion.
Another great episode. I missed Drew again, but was glad to see more Zeke and Camille, especially together. The look on Camille's face when she was asking about the road trip leads me to believe she knows something is up. She was trying to give Zeke an opening to be honest with her I think. Loved the Sarah/Camille and Sarah/Amber scenes. And I am liking Crosby more and more, and Jasmine too. __________________

First nice to see Camille and Zeek, but why no Drew again? Nice mother daughter talk with Sarah, and then Amber. Weird how the SATs didn't come up again but good that she more or less told Amber she had broken up with Mr. Cyr.
Yes Damien must be an idiot! Student of philosophy Love that Zeek was going to kick his butt! Washing in the yard, like Sarah said "Are you kidding me!" I can see him being one of these guys, help up in a cabin somewhere and ending up getting eaten by a bear. I think she is realizing Damien might not be the one in that scene on the van and then sending him off. They probably over did the whole Sydney thing (BTW wasn't the Doctor Pelikan hard to get an appointment for?) then Julia lying to Kristina but coming clean a day later. Good we learned a bit more about Jabbar, I felt for Crosby with Jasmine lying to her family for 5 years, sort of weird that one minute they were at each others throats then they had a happy ending for the party, only in TV land. The talked afterwards was nice, plus the look on her face she Crosby said he was falling in love. Oh and letting Crosby watch the birth video, so sweet. Love the road trip, funny how Adam has a Nissan and they had lots of shots of the shinny new car. Zeek and the sex talk again. Also finical problems with Zeek, good to see he open up to Adam, might explain a few other things Sarah found out earlier on. Finally an extended scene with Camille and Zeek, but he should have told her that they were in trouble. The scenes with Adam and Kristina were fun, the lotion and OTB then the rubber ball and Max climbing into bed with them, so cute. I liked the episode but I wish we could see Sarah smiling some more, she looked so happy in the scene when Amber came home. Next weeks looks like another good one! __________________
