Thought I'd resurrect since I've been watching and am thoroughly enjoying the show!

Just about to watch the latest episode.

Sutton Foster is so funny as Michelle, I love the humor and Boo is super sweet.

I really hope we see it grow and allowed to bloom the way it deserves, and have a good run! :-)

Glad you did - bring up the topic again, I mean.

I confess to FF'ing through the parts wiht the kids, because .... well, I just like Sutton and Emily Gilmore a lot more. The recent episode where

Michelle and her friend let Truly come along to celebrate Michelle's birthday

tickled me no end.

Somebody somewhere called Sutton "a pelican on stilts" and with her unusual jawline, I have to agree - in the jolliest possible way! She's an incredible interview, seems to have lots more genuineness than one would expect from somebody who's lived her life, really, to be on stage, and then won a Tony to boot! I imagine she'd laugh about the "pelican" description if she ever found out.

CRS nor the real name of the actress who plays Mme. Fanny, who is not exactly Emily Gilmore but close enough but still not Emily, so she's so much fun. An older lady who speaks her mind ... I love it so much.

I do wish they'd cover up her freckly chest, more, though. Not a fan. ;)

Truly is so funny too, the whole

older ladies bookclub, talking about 50 Shades of Gray made me laugh! Especially that she 'accidently' threw her copy away ;-) Think it might have been a bit much for her, being so sheltered and all.

I can kinda see the pelican on legs thing, she has legs to die for and a big jaw/mouth, but I love all the unique expressions she makes, you can tell she comes from a stage background.

Emily aka Fanny (Kelly Bishop) is a great actress, love seeing her again! :-)

I'm really enjoying this show, probably even more so because of the Gilmore Girls parallels: small idyllic town, love/hate relationship between Kelly Bishop and a younger woman, the soundtrack. And I was a bunhead myself back in the day, so I love that they hired actresses who can actually dance.

Yes, I loved the finale!

I totally laughed out loud with the mace spray, and the ringer dancer! lol! Almost cried at the end, when Michelle left and Sasha got on the chair!

Can't wait for it to come back, and to see what happens next!

This! I love that show.

Though, I think the Dead Poets Society reference is older than most of those girls. I however was thrilled to see it.

Plus the familiar faces. The actors who played Gypsy, Kirk, and Mitch Huntsberger have all shown up in or around Paradise.

I've described Bunheads to a fellow Gilmore Girl fan as: imagine if Lorelai hadn't gotten pregnant at 16, but instead run away to become a professional dancer. Years later the career isn't doing so well, she marries a guy she barely knows and ends up in the California equivalent of Stars Hollow.

Why do I not remember this creepy guy who keeps showing up to meet Sasha?

      Just had my anatomy scan today. Would it be awful if we revealed the sex of number 2 At silly girl's first birthday party? We have the envelope, I just don't know If we want to open it before or during her party or give it to my sister in law to bake the color into her cake? I don't want to feel like I'm taking attention off of her

      Guess I should update again? Frieda (Kiki, we renamed her) is here since the end of February 2021. She came with a bunch of problems, but is the best dog ever and is doing better every day. But we do now know how a dog with ptsd looks like. For real, not joking. If she is triggered during the day, she wakes up screaming at night. Not like dogs dream, but literally screaming. Other than that she went with us on countless trips, loves hiking and even cable cars. She is one heck of a fearless dog in situations who do not remind her of her old life. 
      My Grandpa passed away last May and I'm still grieving a lot. After sharing a house with my grandparents for over 30 years it is just horrible to lose one of them. Even though it was his decision and he got to go like he wanted. At home, in his bed during the night without doctors. He would have need more care and he did not want more care. So after turning 90 he decided to let go and became weaker and weaker. 
      In other news my dad stops working for good on April 1st. Retirement time. Keep my Mum and myself in your prayers. We really do not want him at home all the time. Haha!

      I don't always make good decisions for myself due to severe depression but I did today actively decide not to do something that might have been detrimental for me and am very proud of myself.

      Well, this is weird. At some point, recently, I broke my wrist. I had to get a Dexa-scan today (put it off for years) and along with some bone loss, damn I had it a few minutes ago… the results said, “Fracture risk is moderate, and the patient has a significant wrist fracture. Treatment is advised.”  my left wrist aches a little but not near as much as my back, feet, knees or fingers, damn RA. I have no idea how it happened. I haven’t fallen in 2 years, haven’t banged or bumped…  the dr will call tomorrow and we’ll get  this straightened out.
