Additional Comments:

Wow, Michael and Maura were both absolutely terrific in those CarJack scenes at the end of today's show. Poor Michael is finally getting to show some humanity as Jack, and Maura played Carly's guilt, exhaustion, and confusion just perfectly. Loved it.

Not hating Janet as much lately, either, and that's all due to Julie Pinson, a fine actress.

Maura was amazing yesterday. Just stunning in her scenes at the end.

I still loathe Jack, but Michael Park is a total pro and was really good on Friday as well.

It's funny but I'm liking everyone lately, kind of. I think TPTB finally realized that they were shoving Katie down our throats day in and day out and it was wearing very, very thin, so now that she's not front and center every single episode, I don't mind her. I've sort of liked her lately. It's even interesting how much honesty there's been on the show recently (not talking about Carly/Holden). It's very cool....

It's really great for me to get glimpses of the old Carjack l love.

*snort* Katie looked okay...so, who had Mike, less than six months and WTD in the office pool? 'Cause you know this "friendship, I never hated you" thing will wind up with them in bed, sooner or later. *cackles* Now there's an affair I'll relish.

  • LOL! I will be happy for you if Jack is spared, gallyn. After today's scene, you may just be right... eom MaryHatch
  • Aaawwww....thanks MH! Did you see that casually friendly smooch she laid on him?? OH yeah....some dark, lonely night, Mike will show up at her door......LOL gallyn
  • Katie SHOULD cheat on BARDLEY....he deserves it !!!!!!!!!!!**
  • Well he certainly deserves someone who loves him (not just after his brother declined for the umpteenth time to revisit their relationship), who doesn't let her ex-husband kiss her on her wedding day (and not tell him....) AND treats him with respect. UNLIKE Katie, that is. gallyn

    MH, you and I must be on the same wavelength or something! Mikey and Mojo were BOTH on their games today! And so was Julie.. she really is enjoyable to watch when she's not obnoxiously loud!

    I really like Jack and Janet scenes.. those two just have a really cute, playful chemistry. I totally loved Jack's little 'I know everything there is to know about Carly' attitude when he was talking to Janet.

  • Who are Mikey and Mojo? Do you personally know these people? //Susan
  • Mikey and Mojo are Mike and Maura's nicknames. One year at the emmys, they worked it into their banter. It was so cute. gallyn
  • hah, sorry for the confusion! I loved that little bit at the emmy's.. and how they do it every time they present together!

    I totally agree -- some really good scenes today between Jack & Carly AND Jack & Janet.  More & more, I am all for a future pairing of Jack & Janet -- these two definitely have major chemistry together. 

    I also like the scene between Parker & Jack when Parker reminded Jack about his "cop" attitude on things.

    It was okay until the end when Jack wondered what Carly was up too, because you just know he's jonesing for a fight with her.  LOL.   I hated how he talked down to Liberty, it was sooo uncalled for.  I'd hate to have an uncle like Jack who makes it clear he doesn't give a sh!t about me.  Janet can have him, I'd like to see him TRY to tame her.

  • The last time Carly was acting all moody and irritable she was dying - really dying - and then she was just pretending to be dying so if Jack wonders what she is up to, he has had good reason in the past. K23
  • I think Jack was fantastic with Carly. He came back to the house because he was so very worried about her. As far as his comment about wondering what she is up to...well, well, well, he sure knows how to read her. And he sure was right. She was up to something...and it was all bad. As in having an affair with her best friend's husband. As far as Jack being a bad uncle, I think he is worried about Parker. It's not as if he's known Liberty since she was a baby and formed a close bond with her. And personally, as the mother of boys....a girl like Liberty would have made me lose lots of sleep.
  • Remember the rule .....
  • MartyB....I totally agree with everything you wrote. Well said!
  • I got the impression that Jack was genuinely worried about her.. not just trying to start a fight.

    And what the hell, I'll even say something nice about Fluffy today: She looked gorgeous.

  • I loved the straight hair. She looked so much more mature. I also love her and Brad's bedroom. Great set. K23
  • I'm loving Katie and Brad more and more.
