When I saw him sitting there unresponsive as Tommy nattered on about all the excitement, I got hit with a strong sense of deja vu to that moment when Buffy found Joyce's body. Made the moment WAY more heartbreaking.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
sj, your version at least would have made a bit more sense. As it was, I felt kinda, "What's next? Plague of locusts?"
Matt, maybe that's why I recognized it so quickly! But I didn't go to heartbreak, I was irritated.

Tell you one thing, though. I recently bought a new fire extinguisher for the kitchen and it came in a set of two and I was unsure where to put the second. It's going in or near the bedroom now, for sure!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Matt, yes there was definitely some of that in there.

Oh, this episode definitely prompted me to track down my second extinguisher (beside the sink in the bathroom, as it turns out) and move it to an accessible space next to my bed.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I just re-watched episode one of The Inside.
It holds up pretty well.
"Damn. Did that backwards." Still funny.

I just started watching this week's 911: Lone Star, and damn it's intense.

Twice this season on 911: Lonestar I was convinced that something was going to happen in an episode, and it didn't, only to then have it happen a couple of episodes later when I was no longer expecting it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thank goodness IMDB updated as fast as it did during 9-1-1 tonight, because I could NOT remember Erica Gimpel's last name, and "that show with the blonde lady who stared" was not enough detail to pull up Profiler (IYKYK).
Anyway, happy to see her on the tv! (I realize she has been in many, many things since Profiler in the 90s.)

"that show with the blonde lady who stared" was not enough detail to pull up Profiler
Weirdly, that brought me to Cold Case (the fictional show) not Profiler, but I know who Erica Gimpel is (because she was Coco on Fame! and Wallace's mom on Veronic Mars!
