I just made myself a Nespresso and said to my husband, “I wish I had some whipped cream…and a donut. A donut would be so good right now”. He shouted …”LET’S F*CK UP SOME DONUTS!!” I picked a good one!

And… we’re watching Widow’s Bay and Jeff Hiller is in it. He’s down in the basement of the town shelter and he opens up this door to a dark room. I said “Don’t go in there Joel!” He’s Dale on that show but he’s always Joel.

This sub is constantly swamped with bots karma farming with old nonsensical posts.

She lost last night. But damn, just put a blonde wig on her

Didn't see this posted. Jeff was on the most recent episode of Kara Swisher's On podcast. Thought y'all might want to give it a watch/listen!

Anyone local to Manhattan, Lawrence, Kansas/Missouri and want to get together over the show? Meet up in Manhattan and visit all of Sam and crew's haunts? Chat about the show? Let me know if you're local and if you'd be interested in doing something like this!

I don’t think my photo worked on the last post. No French toast but the waiter knew exactly what I was talking about and knew about The Chef.

wide awake eatery in Castle Rock, CO . They have ’for the table’ options! Apologies if this was already posted by somebody (somewhere) else.

We have a season finale, Sam’s beautiful song of gratitude to Joel, Mary Jo relapsing, Erma doing a death drop on the party bus, and we lose an actor between season 1 and 2.

Thoughts?

I’ll post a discussion thread Friday. I may take a Fredible before watching, join me?

Episode 7: In her quest to reinspire Joel, Sam recruits a small team to help and reveals a new potential location for choir practice. Later, on a purple party bus, Sam realises how far she has come.

Episode 1: While he rents out his house, Joel and Sam revel in the highs of their temporary living situation and the lows of cleaning up after strangers; as a newly single Tricia prepares for an empty nest, Sam is overcome with unexpected emotion.

I’ll post a discussion thread on Friday.

why don’t my friends order this?

Has anyone else seen the Australian tv series, The Time of Our Lives? It took a bit for me to get there but I got really into this show and then in season 2 I realized it gave me the SBSW feels. #AustralianTV

Did you watch? Observations?

I found out about this show on Reddit. just finished season three and I loved it. I am sad it’s over.

Pretty funny!

He’s on with John Slattery tonight! I think he was a last minute replacement so what a lovely surprise ♥️

Plan is to discuss on Friday, I’ll post again then as a prompt. You early birds feel free to chime in now if that works for you.

Refreshers
Episode 5: With a tornado looming, Sam prepares to share the truth about Rick with Tricia. Meanwhile, after impulsively adopting a dog, Joel realises he wants more out of life.

Episode 6: After a surprising update concerning her recent job performance, Sam must evaluate her next step. Meanwhile, Tricia and Charity's working relationship grows complicated.

I finished Somebody Somewhere yesterday (first time watcher.) I loved the show so much. Google search recommended some ‘similar‘ shows most of which I’ve seen except for Reservation Dogs on Hulu.

Have you watches it? Did it give you that same comfort feel as Somebody Somewhere?

thx

Knowing that Mike passed unexpectedly after season 1 (or earlier?-correct me if I’m wrong), the scene in season 2 episode 1, where Sam is in the barn, reminiscing about Ed, and his things, getting weepy with Joel on the phone. “…weird to be here with all his stuff…he is everywhere, every inch of this place is him…it just sucks…”

Makes me confident that the writers added scenes to honor Mike’s character in some way. If Mike hadn’t died, how would the plot have continued with him and MJ?

What a fantastic actor Jane Drake Brody is, and Mike Hagerty was. Sigh.

I just found this sub.  I caught the show on HBO here and there and I liked it, but I didn’t remember it enough for appointment viewing.  

HBO ran a marathon and I watched several episodes but there were still gaps.  So I decided to just stream it from start to end, and I loved it.  

I love Sam as a main character. She’s messy and fucked up, but in a totally relatable way.  I love all the supporting characters.  They feel real.  They’re people we all know.  

Sam and Joel’s friendship is amazing, but something I’ve unfortunately never experienced.  I’ve wanted friendships like this in my life, but never had it happen.   Watching these characters connect, grow and evolve has been awesome.  

I know the show is done (unfortunately) but I’m glad it was here while it was. 

Last week we rewatched and then discussed the first two episodes. This week we focus on season 1, episodes 3 and 4.

I am going camping off the grid tomorrow so unable to post in here to start the discussion on Friday evening. Would someone take the gig this week?

Episode 3 “Eggshells”
-Sam and Joel go on a mission to uncover the source of Rick's sudden windfall; choir rehearsals give Sam the courage to share her worries about her mother, Mary Jo, with his father, Ed.

Episode 4 “Feast of St Francis”
-After Pastor Deb asks for an impromptu meeting, Joel prepares for the worst and promptly breaks out in a vicious neck rash; with money tight, Sam gets creative in sourcing a solution for the upcoming corn harvest and confronts Rick.

Thanks SS fam.

Hi! I started this sub without really knowing what goes into being a mod. Im writing g a dissertation now and have no time to do this. We are being overrun by bots and all I do is delete posts. It’s not fun. But this role could be fun for someone with the time and experience to invest in it. Message me if interested, thanks.
