Brothers and Sisters Thread

[Mdizzle]

Since there didn't seem to be one already...

If you tune in, drop by to discuss the show! Dish about Kevin and Scotty, Kitty and Rob, and everything else that makes Brothers and Sisters great.

Admittedly, I only started watching this season because the tv was on in the background and I was doing something else, heh. But the dynamics on the show speak for itself.


Not sure about Rebecca and Justin...not a huge fan.

Thoughts, reactions to last episode?

 

[Mdizzle]

really? nobody? wow...

 

[tzarinna]

I use to watch it after Desperate Housewives, but I'm behind in my TV viewing. A few months behind, sorry I can't discuss a damn thing, I have no idea what's going on.

I know there was a baby, and I guess some problems occurred during delivery.

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Damn I missed the latest episode!

How was it Mdizzle? I'm going to try to find it online.

 

[Mdizzle]

Woo hoo!!! We own this thread...because we'll be the only ones posting in it.

Last ep was intense! I don't want to spoil it for you so i'll wait for you to see it before I comment.

I think...trying not to be too obvious...but what I've been predicting about Rebecca and Justin was totally true...

Great scene with the Fam all together for dinner. I'll say that much. Reminds you why you watch this show. Great dynamics--they really do seem like family.

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Fine by me! Others will catch on eventually

ooo i really want to know what you mean by that! that relationship, i sort of new it was going to go where it was, especially after rebecca had doubts william was her real father

I can't remember seeing such strong chemistry between actors playing family members that I have seen on this show. Agreed about the dynamics.

 

[Mdizzle]

I just started watching this season so forgive me if i mention stuff that's already been revealed in past seasons.

That other illegitimate half-brother Ryan or whatever seems sketchy. At least that's the impression that I got from last ep. And, as an aside, he's not hot. Because in the grand scheme of things, that matters, right? ahahah

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Aw I think he's a cutie lol but I'm going to have to see that last episode to see what you mean, he does seem a bit off-putting.

Nah don't worry about it, feel free to mention whatever

 

[Mdizzle]

He kind of looks like that guy from Twilight actually.

Hope you're watching tonite!


..."We're getting our a**es kicked over first base??!!!!"

hahah

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

I know!

ok so don't be mad but...i caught the episode i missed, but i got home late and missed tonight's episode!

how was it? i'm catching it tomorrow so this thread will be full as hell by then with all our bickering

 

[Mdizzle]

Ok well it kinda seems to me like Ryan's bad news...like he'd try to worm his way in and get on ppls' good sides and use that to his advantage somehow...I dunno I just get that vibe from him. Like you don't really know his true intentions.

What do you think's going to happen with Tommy? Rough that his wife kicked him out...

Tonite's ep was great! And Justin just keeps getting better and better...haha!

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Oh yeah after seeing him with Rachel I'm thinking he's probably not going to be a favorite, at least this season. Too bad I was rooting for him

I know right? Him and his wife have been through so much **** though, you have no idea. It didn't really surprise me that she kicked him out. I'm thinking if Holly doesn't drop the charges he is definitely going to jail.

Aw! That's good to hear I felt so bad for him after this episode. Him and Ryan gonna have a smack down? haha

 

[Mdizzle]

Justin keeps getting better looking somehow, haha. I think maybe it's because he stops wallowing in his own sadness or something.

That really would be an interesting twist if Tommy does go to jail. Last ep I thought that Rebecca really could convince Holly to drop the charges (Holly's husband too maybe), but after what happened with Justin at the dinner I doubt it. I wasn't sure whose side I was on, I mean I sympathize with the Walkers, seeing as Holly was the Evil Mistress and all. However, Rebecca was unfairly caught in the middle, imo. Tough stuff.

Another part of why I'm unsure about Ryan is that he swooped in when things got really rocky between Justin and Rebecca that night. If Ryan is looking to fit in with his new fam (i.e. Justin), he should be tread carefully.

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

I finally caught up!!!! woooooh!

I definitely agree about Justin, he is just getting better looking :heart: and I loved him in this episode. "I've got snacks!" haha

Well, I doubt it now unless they can find him, but I wish he would've stuck with what he said and manned up and went to jail. Now it's going to get even worse for him
I tried liking Holly, I really did. But nah I just can't. That woman is unbelievable. However, I do believe in this situation she wasn't in the wrong, but she could've just let Tommy go from the company and drop the charges.
Yeah I do feel for Rebecca, in the past couple of seasons she has been through some rough stuff. I didn't like her in the beginning, and I don't know if you saw the episode or not but her and Sarah's husband sort of hooked up while they were in the middle of a divorce. But her character has slightly grown on me. Far from being my favorite though.

Yeah I didn't like that he did that. I hope that he's just meaning what he said when he told Rebecca that he was around her because she went through what he is going through. And man what is he going to find out if the family didn't even know his mother was with their father? I wonder how he's going to try to prove his mother killed herself.

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Oh and the Kevin and Scotty appointment sex thing cracked me up.

Gasp...whoa I didn't know about the Rebecca thing! Does Sarah know about that??? Definitely gives me a different impression of her...maybe she's not so innocent after all!

Ryan's story arc will be interesting. Is he trying to fit in with his new family cuz he has no other, or is he just using them to figure stuff about about his mom? Trouble ahead for sure!

They should bring that Spring Break chick back in future eps for Justin...cuz she seemed down to earth, and supportive of his new direction in life (going to med school, etc.). Instead of just having Justin chase Rebecca and fight Ryan for her, it would be interesting to see HER get jealous.

 

[Mdizzle]

Hahah i know that was good! And again my fav quote from the episode:

"We're getting our a**es kicked over first base???!!!"

Haha Tommy.

yeah well all i know is that she did have an affair with a married man when she was 16 and then the first episode i caught was the episode after she kissed Sarah's hubby during their divorce or separation or whatever. Yeah when she found out that Rebecca initiated it she was pissed!

I'm kind of thinking right now it's for both. Maybe. He seems to really be getting along with them but I don't know for sure if he's only doing it to figure out about his mom.

Yeah I'd actually like to see that too. The whole Justin Rebecca Ryan thing is so repetitive on shows now, it'd be cool to see Rebecca jealous of Justin's new gal instead of the whole love triangle thing I think they are starting to do.

btw what do you think of Kitty and Rob's relationship right now? Pretty rocky.

Hahah i know that was good! And again my fav quote from the episode:

"We're getting our a**es kicked over first base???!!!"

Haha Tommy.

haha i loved Tommy in the last episode. I loved how he took one for the team.

 

[ChaoticPsylocke]

i am soo excited about tonight's episode!

ryan is soo cute, and i absolutely love rebecca!

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Yay we have another thread participator!

Ryan :heart:

Sweet, 3 fans on the Hype!

I'm afraid that, after hearing about Rebecca's past deeds, my opinion of her is now fuzzy. I'm not sure what I think anymore. But I'm still a fan of Justin. He needs to catch a break, for sure!

And as for Kitty and Rob...he should take Sarah's advice and realize that when Kitty's pulling away, it's not a good thing. I think they might reach a breaking point.

I'll be back to post after tonite's ep!

Yeah I mean Rebecca is one of those characters that are pretty unpredictable as each episode progresses. She is very different from season one then she is now. She has her likable attributes and her not so likable attributes. But that's with pretty much every character, except my Sally Field!

Seriously, they are going to have a showdown that is going to end in tears and slammed doors if Rob keeps this up. I'm not a fan of Kitty at all but he's got to be there for her and stop this governor business. He's really not going to be able to juggle it all.

Me too, enjoy!

s*** ok I'm really not liking Ryan. Sorry ladies! Justin fan all the way. That scene at the benefit/event thing, when Justin speaks with Ryan outside, argh. I was almost surprised Justin didn't get his fists out. Ryan, what a s*** disturber!!! Sorry, I can definitely see the manipulative side at work, especially when he phoned Rebecca afterwards and "accidentally" spilled the news about Tommy. Still wondering exactly what he's up to, tho.

Love how whenever there's tension between couples, someone is always randomly there to swoop in. In the case of Kitty/Rob/other park dude, I'm actually happy to see Kitty have a distraction. That might be interesting....

Also...I think Sarah just might be my favorite character right now.

That was crazy!!! I can see both sides but man I agree Ryan did cross the line there. Hopefully he'll focus more on what happened to his mom then keep messing with Justin and Rebecca but as of now I doubt Rebecca is going to give Justin the time of day.
So you think William Walker had anything to do with Ryan's mom's death?

I know right? lol it makes things interesting I guess. Kitty really needs someone to talk to and I don't know if this is going to turn into something more but with what is going on with Rob right now it may look like it.

Sarah is amazing. She deserves success after all she has been through.

I hate how we have to wait until the 19th now!

What if...Ryan's mom had a secret, too? And William knew about it and was randomly blackmailing her? I'm just throwing things out there. Besides the obvious theory that Ryan's mom was heartbroken after realizing William wouldn't leave Nora, maybe it's more complicated. This could be interesting. Maybe Ryan and Rebecca will take their investigation on the road...with sexy results. Ahaha. Yep I think Justin and Rebecca are done, at least for the next while. Again, bring back Spring Break chick!

I think, later on in the show, Kitty will come to the verge of having an affair with the new guy. Not sure if anything will actually happen, but maybe this is the brush with temptation that will eventually make Kitty and Rob face their problems.

Glad to see Sarah back at Ojai as Pres. I was a bit sad to see her leave Greentopia. Too bad she can't have it all at once.

And finally...we have to wait until when? April 19th?? That's nuts! Waayyy too long, and I want to find out what's happening with Tommy!
