I'm sitting here waiting for Sims to load (yay! old computers -_-) and i'd figure I'd go ahead and make my post for the week!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Arwen Humphreys is the best!

Wasn't too wild about overly emotional hormonal Julia, but it's a part of the biological process that she's going through. Feel a bit sorry for Hart having to put up with it on a daily basis. But let's talk about overly awkward William with the whole thing - that was just hilarious!

BUT what was even funnier was Watts and Cherry beatboxing on the bench! (okay they weren't beatboxing but making funny noises with their mouths)

This is the second time marriage has been brought up in a conversation with George. Humm

TV DINNERS YES

Whodunit was a bit twisted - anyone else notice William's new blackboard with the caulk border? Once they figured out that it was the VP i quickly guessed he had a partner.

Overall a solid episode - got some great markers for the timeline that i'm really behind on updating! Hopefully will get to that this week!

Julia is not having a fun pregnancy. First the morning sickness and now the mood swings. Who knows what else she'll have to put up with.

I hope they aren't hinting at George wanting to marry Nina. She's made it clear she doesn't want that and I don't want her having to change even more to fit with him.

Totally agree!

This was a great episode. Loved seeing Mrs. B take center stage. I adored Miss Cherry and Watts. It makes me wonder if they're going to hook up, heh.

I really don't like the path they are taking Margaret on. Cheating to win? And Brackenreid telling George he'd better let her or he won't get any more Saturdays off? Margaret is a strong character and keeps Brackenreid in check but between this and the Christmas episode, I'm starting to dislike her.

I liked Watts in this episode. I think the series needed new blood so seeing him on from time to time, and more of Higgins and Ruth has been refreshing. We are seeing more of Brackenreid this year as well. With William and Julia now married, they had to shift direction from all the angst as they came together and moved apart and bringing in new semi-regulars has worked.

This was a fun episode and showed George and Margarets competitive side.Hilarious. I find Watts an interesting character but annoying the he slinks around. Julia"s mood swings don't suit her. I know it is what it is but hope this phase of her pregnancy isn't emphasised too much. So sweet at the end when William explained how he felt not knowing if he is saying the right thing.So sweet when julia took Williams hand. I hope the writers are not so cruel as not to let them have this baby.George was more his old self than he has been since Nina came along. Always enjoy his outlook on life. Another great episode.
