Everything after this point is a spoiler so if you don't want to know don't continue.
Ok the season premiere was over all very good. I am still very upset by the episode. A child was taken about 2 or 3 from a toy store implied molestation then fed rat poison and stuffed in a doll box. The rat poison made him bleed out from his eyes ears nose and mouth. Just horrifying. My husband and I can't stop kissing and hugging our little boy. This made me think about a close call my brother and I had. My dad was out of work and trying to find any money he could. He was a musician on the side and was looking for a band to play in. He would post cards on bulletin boards in bars. Anyway he had my little brother and me in the car with him and I was 4 or 5 and my brother was 2 or 3. My Dad locked us in the car to go post a card. A man came up and asked my brother and me if we wanted a Pepsi. My brother said yeah and the man asked him to open the door. I never jumped so fast but grabbed my brothers hand and yelled no he is a kidnapper. The man jumped in his car and drove away. My father came back and just sat in the car and cried when we told him. My father is a pretty tough guy, too. I can't even imagine what would have happen.

I've just started watching this from the very start and I'm hooked already. I'm so delighted that there are a few more seasons !!!

Does it continue to stay fresh?
Author: shinny    Time: 1-12-2008 16:50

Just watched 1x06 The one with the guy who kills someone 7 years in the future. I wonder will this come up in later episodes? Probably still too early to bring it up though.
Author: shinny    Time: 1-19-2008 10:43

Ok, I'm just finished with Season one (16 episodes later !!) and am about to start watching Season 2 with 22 episodes. I might need to take a break from it for a bit though.

This was a disturbing episode everyone this she is a nut, Alison was in a tough position as people thinks she nut case but we know she's not . it must be hard not having a job. this really is an adult series with issues it deal with.

Well both these episodes are interesting but they were no surprises but still rather enjoyable to watch

I enjoyed them. It was funny how her daughter was dreaming about her. And was interesting how that cop was caught. This last episode was good but I can't believe that guy didn't offer Joe any money for leading him on and taking his wife's time.

So I have finally made it onto Season 3. I'm totally hooked on this show now, it's one of my all time favourites. I love the relationship between Alison and Joe. When I started watching it first, I wasn't a big fan of Joe. Now I really like him. They work well together.

Author: peasonice    Time: 2-9-2008 11:45

I agree with Tina, the episode with the little boy in the toy store reached my limit but I'm still a fan. I'm loving how Alison's hair changes each season. I'm also enjoying watching Ariel grow up and all the stuff that brings with it. I think that guy should have offered Joe some money too.....Joe is awesome. I'm hoping that Angelica Houston becomes a character that pops in and out like the mean lawyer guy whose son went to jail......I'm so waiting for the new episodes......

I watched the last few episodes of season 3 last night and I thought it was going to be something worse than that Bala !! I thought one of them was going to have an affair or something. I can understand how Joe went off the rails, after all he'd be through.

Question. You know the episode where they both come on as themselves at the start and say "due to recent events....." what exactly were they referring to?

When that episode aired there was high school shooting incident in States i can't exactly remember details but it was cause a 1 week delay in the episode from airing out of respect.
Author: Teachergirl    Time: 2-13-2008 11:30

me too, after season three I wasn't sure how it would all continue but I like it so far. I like the way it deals with everyday problems, Alison and Joe seem so normal. I like that about them.
Author: peasonice    Time: 2-15-2008 18:06

yeah i do like watching certain shows for the fabulous, aspirational element but with this show it's the opposite. In a couple of episodes or more Joe and Alison admit that they dont have enough money or they could have had more money (but they had kids) and I like that they accept each other, the choices they've made and can see the benefits of what they have, it's kind of relaxing.

Has anyone noticed now that we're in series four how many different types of breakfast are eaten in the Dubois household?!

And for every time Alison wakes Joe in the middle of the night there could be an audience party forfeit, we counted four once!
Author: peasonice    Time: 2-15-2008 18:16

yeah i liked the way they did that - with the actors talking to the screen - I thought it was going to be a quirky way of starting a storyline at first.

I just watched it as well. Yeh, it kind of gave you some sort of insight into the world of a deaf person. Very interesting.

Anyone know when David Arquette started directing it? Just noticed his name on the credits of this show.

I must be honest- at first I checked if my laptop was acting up when the "deaf" parts started. LOL

I know, I thought she was brilliant too. Arielle is really grown up now. She's going to be a stunner in a few years. They'll have to keep a tight reign on her. And Bridget is still the same Bridget, she's a great little actress.

So shocking and scary to think her stepfather was behind it. I like seeing Marie grow up too. If Mommy was a Llama. It makes you think how little people think you are capable of because of a disability. Of course if you lose your hearing yelling doesn't help or speaking slow.

I really like those three kids- they are all so different and I really like them. It is perhaps not easy to have Alison as a mum, especially not at this moment but they're so nice to each other and it was too cute watching Ariel helping Marie. Was that a real book about the Llama?

Yes and more disturbing thing she got away with it
Author: Teachergirl    Time: 3-2-2008 02:21

Yes, but that is what I like in these shows- a good show will not present the perfect solution all the time- sometimes the evil ones do get away and there's nothing the good guys can do about it- just move on and try to solve the next one. But that means we're not seeing superheroes and all the knowledge Alison has, in the end it can't solve all problems all the time.

I was really shocked by this episode. When the senator was eating the sandwich I was gonna be . I was very surprised Joe just didn't come out and tell the man his daughter had a dream he needed a lock and many of her dreams are true. I think he would have believed him. From my understanding dreams play a big part in eastern culture.

This episode and last weeks episode really made for an interesting case i can't believe how they managed to connect it-we all figured out she was alive but the murdered women that dentist picked up match the women who was suppose to died in a fire, man that was very complicated and I'm glad to see Alison win for sometime. Still i liked how tie up loose-end.

Wow what an episode i knew she wasn't the killer but was anyone shock to find out it was a man because i honestly didn't see that coming i love bit when he asked the cop he has ticket to baseball game that was rather funny but i guess the author got some publicity out of it but i got admit only murder that truly  grisoom was nail gun guy .
Author: gabsimom    Time: 4-9-2008 06:17

I figured it out when she was getting dressed to "ship off in the naval uniform" My husband thought she had a twin and I said no it is a guy. All the guys being killed just acted to sensitive to be regular Joe's Especially when you compare them with the guy she picked up with the fake accent. As for last weeks episode it was great seeing Joe having a dream. I was very sad to see Cynthia Keener kill that girl, now a person who helps others will be in prison.   Back to this week Loved how Devalos stuck it to his ex friend who stole his job.

i think joe would probably not do anything but he wouldn't tell alison that she kissed him and look on his face when she enter woman office said it all. Joe a good man but he still a man let face it she's a lot more attractive than Alison is my personal opinion.
Author: shinny    Time: 4-30-2008 13:08     Subject: Reply 60#60 bala's post

So being a "man" automatically means a cheater? Not so Bala, a lot of men have strong characters and don't cheat, just like some women do cheat. Besides, Alison is his wife and he's built a life with her. It's not all about her being better looking than Alison. Beauty is only skin deep and if there is nothing but the surface then there's really not much at all.
Author: bala    Time: 4-30-2008 13:11     Subject: Reply 61#61 shinny's post

i didn't say he would cheat i said he wouldn't tell allison about kiss.

I felt sorry for Tom at the end. It must have been hard for him to ask Allison for that favour, they way he had treated her in the past; but at least she was gracious to say she'd help him out if he came to her when he passes.
