Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This two-hour season finale was packed full of story, lore, old and new characters, plot developments, and general weirdness. If it weren't for Lostpedia, we'd really be... lost.
Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 3, episode 1, "A Tale of Two Cities." Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point.
This episode was recorded before a live studio audience ... of dogs. -
Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find commanded her attention thanks to its subtitle. It's The Minimum Method: The Least You Can Do to Be a Stronger, Healthier, Happier You by Joey Thurman. Hard to say no to that!
Terri's random recommendation this week switches things up by introducing an Internet conundrum. Can anyone explain this phenomenon to her?

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. While we couldn't help but be charmed by Sandy's romantic gesture (it involved Taylor Swift), we were frustrated by the entirely predictable sitcom move of Lev breaking up with Isla. She tried! Mentioned: The Wedding Singer scene that inspired Sandy and hey, that's Macauley Culkin!
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 10, "Game Seven," the season finale. We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup. -
Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. In this episode, Michael tries to play the Dad Card ("I'm the dad, so I get to decide") while also being shamed for not knowing much about his kid. It's not going to go well for him. Mentioned: A Design Mom argument on how dads can really protect their kids (hint: they don't need guns).
Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 2, episodes 23 and 24, "Live Together, Die Alone" (the two-part season finale). Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point. -
Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is a Wordle-based romance called A Five-Letter Word for Love by Amy James, who we congratulate for hopping on a trend. Mentioned: Previous find Cutting Teeth and identifying a Hallmark movie with AI.

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. We love Kate Hudson's performance here, but struggle with the predictable sitcom plots. We protest any trouble in Isla's relationship. Let her keep her very nice fiancé!
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 9, "The Playoffs." We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup. -
Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. In this episode, the title of which is indeed simply a punctuation mark, a lot of dreams and a few flashbacks led us to... another hatch, which spies on the original hatch. And in more magic-island evidence, this hatch has a working printer.
Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 2, episode 22, "Three Minutes." Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point. -
Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

It's Let's Put That Away: My First Book of Organizing by Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin of The Home Edit, with (adorable!) illustrations from Hsinping Pan. Mentioned: Kiki & Jax: The Life-Changing Magic of Friendship by Marie Kondo.
Terri's random recommendation is an app for writers called, simply, Writer; it offers a stripped-down, old-school, black-and-green interface to help you write away distraction-free. Mentioned: Olivetti by Allie Millington.

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. We continue to enjoy the performances here, and many of the jokes, but think the writers are consulting the sitcom tropes playbook a bit too often. Mentioned: Joe Mande, a writer and producer on both The Good Place and Parks & Rec; Shrinking.
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 8, "The Streak." We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup. -
Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. The "two" of the title might refer to the unlikely pairing of Ana Lucia and Jack's father, Christian Shephard, or to the two castaways who lose their lives in the shocking final minutes of the episode.
Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 2, episode 21, "?." (That's not a typo.) Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point. -

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. This episode had the entirely predictable sitcom move of "angry rant is recorded and broadcast," as well as the now-common for this show move of "Marcus saves the day." Mentioned: Grizz and Dot Com on 30 Rock, Councilman Jamm on Parks & Rec, and Take Your Child to Work Day.
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 7, "A Special Place in Hell." We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This episode gave us Rose and Bernard's story (turns out, Bernard is ... a lot) and showed us that Rose and Locke have something in common. Meanwhile, pieces are being put into place for a confrontation with the Others as the end of the season draws nearer. Mentioned: Michael Emerson (who plays Not-Henry Gale) on his wife Carrie Preston's show, Elsbeth, and his own show, Person of Interest.

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is The Wedding People, a novel by Alison Espach that's circulating heavily at her library and lived up to the hype. Mentioned: The movie Elizabethtown.
Terri's random recommendation is a writer she's shouted out before, Brian Grubb. This time, he's got a take on Reacher that delighted both Terri and her husband. If you haven't watched the show, here's a scene to give you a taste.
In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2018 on sharing, and when it's OK not to.

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. This episode brought us the inevitable falling-into-a-pool-in-formalwear moment (three out of five Gordons), which is definitely some kind of sitcom law. And though raised by a single mom, Jackie shows he's savvy enough to play Mom against Dad, or in this case, brother against brother. Mentioned: Retta and Ike Barinholtz praising Max Greenfield's dance moves on Good Hang with Amy Poehler.
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 6, "The Yips." We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is a series of children's early chapter books starring a rat named Ratnip. And yes, there's one about a slice of pizza.

In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2016 (!) on the parenting finish line. Mentioned: Our discussion on how to define "young adult."

Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's Running Point. This week, two brothers are entirely absent, but the other two are uncomfortably close, as Ness camps out at Sandy's pristine (clearly child-free) home. Meanwhile, Isla's usual "flip the script, come out on top" plan doesn't come together by the end of the episode. Mentioned: Korean dol ceremony and Brian Grubb's "Customer Reviews of the White Lotus Family of Resorts."
Next Wednesday, we'll watch season 1, episode 5, "Beshert." We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 2, episode 18, "Dave." Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point.

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is Menopause Makes: Empowering Sewing Projects to Relax Your Mind, Cool Your Body, and Ignite Your Creativity. It's a book that hops on a trend and gives it a twist. But we're not sure if it's going to have the intended effect.
Terri's random recommendation this week is two comedians that the Facebook algorithm has decided (correctly!) that she, a person of a certain age, will enjoy: Brian Kiley and Andy Huggins.
In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2023 on our kids and their sibling relationships.
