I've got it on tape and will watch sometime this weekend - it's a must see in my house and I'll be fucking pissed if they cancel it - I wish they
hadn't put it up against Criminal Minds though.

Poor Ted!!
Loved the murder of the week this week --- a Houseful of Hazlits & especially Squeaky & Tex (poor Tex ).
Agent Bodner using Ted to force Crews into being the FBI's mole on Rayborn was a nasty thing to do. Glad we got a little more on the bigger conspiracy, though. I need to marathon all the past eps to piece everything together thus far, though. I can't keep track of it all. I'm a fan of Reese & Tidwell together and find it totally plausible. Tidwell worked hard to wear Reese down & I think they are good together. (But I am a Donal Logue fan & always enjoy him popping up in my fave shows or playing a bit character in a movie). Glad Reese gave him a haircut, though. And NBC better NOT cancel this show. I've been watching since day 1 and it is a fave of mine. I am NOT a fan of the Leno development and the likely death of many good dramas so that idiot can put more cars in his garage. Why pay millions & millions to one guy, when you can spread it out among some good dramas? Life better survive this. |

Just watched the episode from my DVR.
Another fantastic episode. LOVED the murder of the week, and I love that they're expanding the conspiracy storyline to include Ted. LAMOMAM was absolute gold too. I had to go back and look through last season's episode guides to figure out what episode Nabokav was in, because it was over a year ago. Should be interesting what happens next week. |

What an EPIC failure that idea will turn out to be. I think NBC is signing their own death warrant with that move. Guess I'll be having lots of free time coming up in the near future. I won't be tuning into CBS because they've dogged me plenty. Well, maybe I'll tune in once they finally bring on the incarntion of CSI: Dubuque. That'll be must-see TV. ABC has nothing to offer in the ten o'clock hour. I hope I can still find MASH on TVLand or something. I only got to watch LAMOMAM episode today via DVR. Freaking stupid company showing up at my house in my appointed Life hour. Another stellar episode. I'm just sick about Ted though. What they're doing to him is so wrong. Still not on the Reese/Tidwell bandwagon. Not against it either, I'm just pretty indifferent.

Life has been named one of the top 10 shows of the year by AFI. Pretty impressive.

Holy shit. That was a crazy ending.
Phenomenal episode. They focused a lot on the conspiracy angle which I liked, because I've felt that's been moving a bit too slow, so this episode made up for that IMO. February 4th. Gahhh. So far away. Can't wait to see what happens. |

No one else but me and TTH watched this last night? It was an awesome episode. Dani off the wagon, Ted flexing his prison muscles, and Charlie being SHOT? Plus the return of the Russian mobster! Come ON, you guys. |

Oh, I was watching. I don't miss Life in my house.
I was so worried about Ted. Glad to see he's got bitches. After so much angst over Charlie's father, looks like we'll finally get to see a glimps of what that's all about. I hate that Russian mobster guy. Just shoot him already and finish him off. Glad Rachel is a likeable girl. She may just be what Charlie needs. You did see he now has a kitchen table; didn't you? I see Life is getting some awards noms. Maybe that will help us when it comes time to find out what they're cutting for Leno. What an epic failure that whole Leno thing will turn out to be. Just sucks that we have to wait for February for new episodes. |

Did that ending not freak you out? When Charlie appeared in the prison cell, I thought, "Did he just imagine it all, the being free and working with
Dani?" And then when the dead guy showed up, I thought, "OMG, he did NOT just die, did he?"
That was a great episode and with many cliffhangers to keep people interested until FEBRUARY. Losers. |

I loved the episode. I still have no idea what Roman needed a basement prison for and who all those people were besides Liza and the two cops who had been
guarding her. And how was Roman involved with the conspiracy?
That was one freaky death dream sequence. I need to know what's going to happen now! |

Finally watched last night and another STELLAR episode. I was really worried at the end until the voice said Life was returning in February. If they cancel
this show, so help me, I will boycott NBC. I'm glad this show is getting critical acclaim and I hope it boosts the viewership . . . although I still
don't get how they get their numbers and wonder how many people like me are unaccounted for who watch these shows that the networks claim are low in the
Nielsen ratings and cancel on us.

I don't think they've had a bad episode yet. Even when he's been shot he's all calm and zen like. He must be getting close to solving the bank
case for them to shoot him. Who do you think it was?
Jack Reese? (kinda foreshadowed with what the russian told Dani) The Russian mobster? Hid dad? (revenge) His Boss? (jealousy) Racheal? (doesn't like his rules) One of the other 5 in the picture? It should be even more interesting than usual when it returns from it's break. |

I thought I read that Life was picked up for 13 more episodes (after how ever many had already been made)....
Boomtown 2002/03 was another NBC show that was absolutely fantastic that they cancelled 6 episodes into Season 2. CBS ran 4 episodes of Eyes 2005 (with Tim Daly) wonderful show they didn't give the time to find viewers. How I Met your Mother was almost cancelled at one point and they had an episode that would've ran as a finale to give Ted a wife. |

No, it wasn't his dad. Even though Crews shot him, he doesn't harbour any ill-will. He just wants to mend their relationship.
It wasn't Rachel. She really does love him and told him, Please don't die. Not the boss. Even if Tidwell thought Crews were competition, he'd just step it up a notch himself to win the fair Dani. I think Jack Reese is too pansy to do it himself. I think it would be so cool if we got an episode of Crew actually in prison. Even if it were a flashback episode, I'd rather enjoy seeing how he got along there. I don't mind that they're on hiatus for a couple of weeks. Too many other things to do to be tied to television. But February? That sucks major donkey balls. |

How do we know for sure the shooting is about the bank job and not about the Russians??
