Anyone else still watching this? If not, you should be. :rolleyes:
IMO this show has gotten better with each episode. Now that we're getting to know each character and their respective idiosyncrasies, it's very entertaining. I loved this episode and you could just tell as the secrets built up that they were going to explode at the benefit. Each story had drama and comedy in it, making it fun to watch.
I called the "Mistress has a child with the father" early on and it looks like I'm right. Should be interesting.
This has become one that I look forward to each week. :up: :up:

It's a fun show. I like it.

But, man, have Robert Foxworth and Meredith Baxter fallen so far that they barely register as guest stars?

Hmmm...well, uh, lol. I'm not sure who Robert Foxworth is, but where was Meredith Baxter? I remember seeing the credit at the beginning, but don't remember seeing her.

MB played the wife of RF. (Small World: RF also played the father of Rachel Griffiths on Six Feet Under.)

I do like this show a lot, but it's so predictable that any secret will only be kept until the most inopportune time, at which point it will be revealed very publicly. I guess that's part of the fun!

lol, that's the best part for me. You'd think they'd learn not to go into public with secrets. I didn't even recognize MB! I thought her hubby looked vaguely familiar though, but never saw SFU or recognize his name. I wish I still had it on here so I could go back and try to recognize MB though! I can't believe I totally missed her!

He did, in the coat closet, right before they tore each others' clothes off.

Plus, I think the daughter's name, Rebecca (Becca) will be the key to the account password they need.

Ooooh, I like it! You are very possibly right on this one. I hadn't even started guessing on the password yet, but I probably would have gone with Kitty without even thinking further. I thought it was interesting that Sloan (okay, I don't remember his name on this show, lol) repeated the name to himself like that, like he was thinking it over for some reason. Interesting...and would be the reason for the family finally finding out about her.

As soon as Sol asked Holly what her daughter's name was, I figured that's why he was asking: to gather possible passwords.

And I can't for the life of me imagine how someone wouldn't have recognized MBB! She's aged, but really doesn't look much different than when she was younger.

I like that idea too. And I'm relieved - I thought when he was repeating the name that they were going with some sort of Alzheimer's plot line.

I don't have any inside scoop on the show, but I bet they don't bring Johnathan back. I think he was just introduced to give us a sense of who Kitty used to be as she joined back in with her family.

And I can't for the life of me imagine how someone wouldn't have recognized MBB! She's aged, but really doesn't look much different than when she was younger.

I don't know how on Earth I missed MBB. I've recognized her on every guest role she's done, so don't know how I didn't catch this one. Hopefully she'll be on again in the future and I can figure that one out.

I didn't know what to think, but thank goodness they weren't going with that storyline. It would have killed the show!

I bet you the password is "DeeDee." :D
