She's away at college in real life, so it's hard to get her on the show.Ryan's mother is Annabeth Gish. She's been in a lot of stuff including the end of X-Files and the Bridge
Thought the Haddie stuff was pretty silly. Like the writers finally remembered she existed and just wanted some storyline reason for her returning home.
Nothing wrong with drunken live-posting here in the Parenthood thread. It's been needed for a long time. If we are blessed with another season, I hope you'll have a bottle and laptop ready every Thursday night.The Bridge,
Wow I was drunk last night, hard delete my last five posts please.
Wouldn't read to much into that. Hank wasn't there either... it was time for family less the drama.. plus they needed to a possible opening for a story line IF they have another season.The second they showed Amber about to do the nasty with solider boy I told my wife "if there is a next season it will involve her being pregnant" viola, next scene with her is buying a pregency test.Joel wasn't in the final scene. Thought it was set up for him and the wife to get back together ... Then he's not in that scene.

I'm pretty sure it hasn't been picked up yet. Like every other year, cancellation's a real possibility.IF?Wouldn't read to much into that.

they did the samething the last couple years. The writers have no idea if there will be a next season or not so they do their best to end story lines while at the same time leaving possibilities open just in case.I'm pretty sure it hasn't been picked up yet. Like every other year, cancellation's a real possibility.I hope like hell they get one more season to finish it on their own terms.IF?Wouldn't read to much into that.

Romano is definitely killing it, and it would be a disappointing cancellation.I hope to hell we get at least one more season, great season and great episode IMO. Still do not understand selling of the house but just like in real life things change so this really was a good way to reflect that I guess.
Romano is killing me, loved Men of a Certain Age and it was sadly cancelled now he could be involved in another disappointing cancellation.
they're super BerkeleyThought it was a decent finale. Not sure why they brought back Haddie after all these years, other than to put Adam/Christina higher on a pedestal for being so open-minded and accepting.
Glad to hear.. one of my favorite shows in years, and one more season sounds about right...enough time to wrap all the story lines up and not overstay its welcome..Parenthood (renewed for one final 13-episode season)
Agreed.. Wish they would have done the same with Revolutions as now they will just leave us hanging with no story end.Glad to hear.. one of my favorite shows in years, and one more season sounds about right...enough time to wrap all the story lines up and not overstay its welcome..Parenthood (renewed for one final 13-episode season)
Happy to hear that there iwll be another season, but I thought they did a pretty good job wrapping up most of the story lines for this season's finale just in case it ended up being the series finale. I thought that showed a real respect for the fans of the show.Glad to hear.. one of my favorite shows in years, and one more season sounds about right...enough time to wrap all the story lines up and not overstay its welcome..Parenthood (renewed for one final 13-episode season)
They done that the last two season as the writers never knew if it would be the last season or not.. Have to give the writers credit for leaving a few story lines open, but not leaving you completely in the dark in case the show got cancelled..Happy to hear that there iwll be another season, but I thought they did a pretty good job wrapping up most of the story lines for this season's finale just in case it ended up being the series finale.

Parenthood and FNL's suffered the same fate. Premiered when cable shows were really garnering all the attention and everyone was giving up on network shows. Both shows that would have been huge hits pre-2000.God, I missed the Bravermans. Great premiere.
It's such a shame nobody ever watched this show becase I think it's unlikely that we will ever see a cast this great again on network TV.
I'd say the Amber and Sarah/Romano storylines have plenty of teeth too.Parenthood and FNL's suffered the same fate.

The premiere was decent. I was thinking Zeke knew something about his health and did not want anyone to know but it doesn't look like it. Thinking having him hide some bad diagnosis would have really added a layer to the season. Missed opportunity.
The Julia/Joel storyline is the only one with teeth right now. With the time lapse would have hoped they would have setup a bit more.
Been an enjoyable run but not sure where they are headed. Would think they have something good in store. I wouldn't be surprised if Zeke's health scare is a misdirect and Kristina's cancer comes back. Krause and Potter along with Max have been the heart of the show. Plus Haddie back as a regular. Could see Kristina passing then Amber names her daughter Kristina. Flash forward last episode Hank and Sarah wedding episode. My prediction.
Did Krause get a rug? Or as I call it a little "help" up front.
I think the show is doing fine. I think the cast is probably just too big though. It seems like they lose a lot of momentum bouncing around to much. In the next episode, for instance, Amber/Drew/Haddie aren't even in it.This thread is slowly dying, just like the show.
Finished the waiting room episode. The Julia & fb arc is a little more interesting knowing that they have a past and he isn't just a random coworker bang. Hopefully Joel moves on quickly, plenty of young hot tail in the bay area for a guy like him. Adam's subtle mental game with Crosby, getting him to go to Abq for the singer was smooth. Drew looks like such a #### with that hair but his talk with Amber in WY was one of the better/manly moments in his Parenthood career. Of course it got a little misty as Zeke was about to get wheeled off to the OR, can't imagine being in that spot one day.
One of the things I've enjoyed about this show over the years is that it realistically addresses many of the major life moments we all will face. As the hustle and bustle of the grind goes on, this show many times has caused me to pause and think of the people w
ho are important to me and appreciate the times had and to come.
God, I missed the Bravermans. Great premiere.

I have seen rumors of such a thing on the internet. I can't even bring myself to speculate.God, I missed the Bravermans. Great premiere.

Every week when they state "The Final season" my wife yells "What do you mean the final season!!! "
Really enjoyed every season.. Only question is..
Who gets killed before the end.. The way this show has gone not everything is rose's, it's "real life" and I just get the feeling someone is going to take a final before all is said and done..
When Zeke got sick, II wondered if they might do a cycle of life thing with him dying around the time Amber's baby is born.Who gets killed before the end..

Yep, felt that Zeke was done for..

Of course that did leave us with that line when he was talking to his wife about his ribs "If they were broken there would be bones sticking out"
You and me both...Well, I guess I was half right. And it looks like they threw us a curve ball about some story lines being wrapped up last week. Luncheonette off again and Julia/Joel in question.
That may be how many times I cried during it. I thought they did a good job wrapping it up. The Victor's sister thing was a little odd, but I guess they wanted to show that Julia and Joel were committed to a fresh start.lakerstan said:Last one tonight. What is the over/under on Lauren Graham crying? 3 times?
