Toby is awesome though!


Kate really doesn't deserve him, but I don't want his character to leave the show cause he makes Kate more bearable. Him going through all that trouble at the warehouse to make sure that package didn't arrive....a very loving gesture that Kate will never know even happened.

I mean, by the end of the episode (only 2 days after losing the baby) she was able to fully open up to Toby. That is progress for her.


One of the subtle things the show does is show how out of bad situations, good things happen. Kate realizes how much her mother still means to her in a positive way.

Young Kevin as a jerk jock becomes a better person after his injury. ...

Teanager Kate is awesome


Amazing how much she looks and especially her facial expressions are like older Kate. Tremendous acting by that young lady.

Another thing is how Toby is like Jack in ways. And, of course, how the kids are like their parents because of the choices the parents made in resolving situations.

Though, it wasn't in the previews for the last episode, number 3, it will be a big letdown if there is not at least an amount of closure into the Jack situation. The candles, the fuse box and also honing in on the dog in the last two episodes are obvious clues, I sort of will be surprised if it ends up being that scenario. The writing to this show, especially the first episode and several others in season 1, lead me to believe it will wind up being some sort of wow moment of revelation. At least that's what I hope.

I thought he was selfish and really obnoxious at first and only recently have I started to find him acceptable

Team Randall checking in for tonight. Wish his story would be more about his youth and upbringing than this Deja stuff tho.

Good episode, wasn't really expecting anything major happening leading into the next half of the season, though I thought maybe there'd be something more than Kev getting arrested. Randall is the GOAT. I almost wish they'd do more episodes dedicated to their time as teenagers.

Shoutout to Nas

Season’s not over. Just a month break. First half of season 2 has been great.

When that little girl popped up in the back of Kevin's car I was afraid he was going get into a wreck and that was where they would leave us.

Yeah, after the ending and no previews, thinking like most people that 10 was the end, I went to Wiki and did an ep guide search on the series and all of a sudden two more unnamed episodes appear the first two weeks of Jan. They kept that hush hush for the most part, at least to me and a bunch of others here.

Good thing, I was about to rename the series "This Pisses Me Off" or "WTF?"

So, we get two more episodes in about a month to watch Jack burn, or actually the way this is going, bake like a potato.

Missed that, probably because they ran credits during the intro of the next show, after several minutes of commercials, or at the end I was stunned that was it. That could have been another name "That Was It".

Even so, them saying that quickly at the end like you say, that's the first anyone on here, at least by posting going into the last episode, knew of the series continuing with 2 more episodes. That's the point.

I and most here -- actually everyone who posted -- had no idea until then that there was more, though. They wanted the ratings I guess by not saying a lot about it. Wiki has no names for the episodes yet, so they are keeping even title spoilers hush hush but we all know we see Jack die, or hiding in Stars Hollow.

Isn't this run of the mill for all series on the networks? I know a few other shows we watch do the same thing. Break through December and return after the holidays until mid-Spring.

As soon as it was clear that she was missing, I was afraid she was in the car with drunk Kevin, and would die in a crash.
