I guess Olivia and Natalia have some great scenes today. The L word is mentioned. Natalia wants to set the teacher straight.

Lizzie also has some choice words and slaps for Coop after she sees him and Beth canoodling at Towers.

Buzz has an episode today while sweeping at Company. I hope he's all right. I think it's just all the stress.

Cyrus and Lizzie share some more moments again. Bill goes to Cyrus to ask about Lizzie. Bill knows that he screwed up. Cyrus finds Lizzie after she's seen Bill with Roxie. Cyrus comforts her. Cyrus Bill and Lizzie are in the previews.

Beth has some words for Rick. She's asking for his support. Don't send him daggers Tracey for his comments about Alan. I think Rick was being sarcastic or at least I hope.

Bill gets news from a contact about PHILLIP !

I thought the scene where Natalia attempted to explain her relationship with Olivia to Mrs. Jennings was great. There was such emotion when Olivia overheard Natalia describing the two as "just roommates" and the look on her face was heartbreaking. And then when Natalia went on to say what a family really is...I loved it. I think the writing for the Olivia/Natalia scenes is very very good.

I was also happy to catch a glimpse of Rick today!

smiley, you are right on with this assessment! The beauty of the emotions of both women while Natalia was explaining their unusual family situation to the teacher was overwhelming. I think Olivia may be more involved with Nat than she expects to be! Things are sure heating up in Springfield!!

I also loved seeing Rick! Thanks for mentioning this rock of Springfield.

Dayna, Rick has been on my you know what list for quite some time.

I loved Lizzie again today! Her comments in the elevator were the best! I cheered when she slapped Coop, not once but twice! He deserves whatever he gets. He is clueless and Beth is in some weird dream world if she thinks she has a future with Coop.

I thought Frank and Buzz were hysterical with their comments, still trying to get Coop to wake up out of the fantasy novel in his head! I like Buzz's wise cracks!

Natalia and Olivia! While Nat has to be one of the most clueless people in the world when it comes to the whole connotation of "my two mommies" the story continues to be well written and enjoyable. What I liked was the fact that Nat told the teacher that while they are not a couple they do love each other. No matter what direction this story takes, I am glad to see them showing two people in a close relationship. All too often relationships on TV are about sex, and not the heart. It is possible for two people to love each other and share a bond without it being about sex.

Dayna, I enjoyed Cyrus and Lizzie. It will come as no surprise that I enjoyed hearing him show that he has an understanding of why Alan does what he does. We have now seen Lillian and Cyrus touch upon this. It really makes me wonder what we are going to see happen when Alan finally does learn the truth. They have given Alan his humanity back, and I hope they don't take it away completely.

I loved today's show-very soapy overall and the set-up for moving the sl along (except Bizzie-they just keep spinning around like water in a drain! )

I got a real kick out of Lizzie whomping on Coop not once but twice! She never was very Zen about things, so I could see her not considering that she's was banging her mom's ex husband/lover.

I loved Beth and Rick-just seeing them interact. I really think this Coopfest is her trying deperately to feel like the high-school prom queen again. For me, there's just too many men and too much water that had gone under that "bridge"

Man-Lizzie must be blind-Cyrus was looking very hot today! Actually, Marcy looked so beautiful in the natural light today as well. I loved Bill and the dog-they make a good pair.

Poor Buzz and Frank. Buzz for his health and Frank because Nat still didn't look that into him after kiss No. 2.

I'm really enjoying the Liv/Nat sl. I don't know where it's headed, but it's been done very well up to this point. If they keep slowly crafting it like they have, I'll enjoy either outcome.

I love that!!

Pretty good show today!

Lizzie sure let Coop have it! Though I will say the line that cracked me up was when she said her mom was "Practically married to her grandfather." That sounds so wrong! Of course her ex-fiance "banging" her mother doesn't sound very good either! I also did like Lizzie and Cyrus together towards the end today.

Looks to me like Olivia is alot more into Natalia than Natalia is in to her. Though it doesn't look like Natalia is much into Frank either! I still can't get over how naive they were playing Nataila though. I did like her talk with the teacher though and setting things straight, though it seemed Olivia was crestfallen at when she first walked in and heard Nat's comments.

I still feel bad for Rick getting the shaft from Beth and now she is giving it to Alan. Beth does not know the tangled web that she is weaving.

Interesting that Bill is going to find Phillip, now if only he could bring Sarah home to Lizzie. I agree that Lizzie does need her father, but, I think she needs her daughter even more.

I so agree with that. I got a kick on one of the other boards yesterday-all they could talk about was Lizzie giving up her dog! While I love animals and they do become like part of the family, your daughter is family! There was less talk when she gave up Sarah!

The poor wirters were probably biting nails over the "kiss" controversy airing and Roxie stole the show!

Rick kinda cracked me up today - "Well, he's younger than Alan." Poor Beth, she's just not getting much support, is she?

I thought Buzz's comment to Frank was very telling today - "A kiss can change everything." Hmmm....Frank's kiss didn't seem to have nearly the impact on Natalia that Olivia's did. Frank just isn't lucky in love. It's sort of too bad too b/c I think there could have been something there. Who knows, maybe there will be, but right now I'm much more interested in what's going on b/w Natalia and Olivia. Perhaps we're going to get an unconventional triangle - Natalia can choose steady, realiable Frank, or throw complete caution to the wind w/ Olivia.

I'd say Olivia is definitely considering the possibilities that Emma inadvertantly brought up. Natalia isn't there yet, but I'm willing to bet she might start to think about them too. I'm going to be very curious to see if they bring her Catholocism into it, and what it would mean in terms of her faith.

Bill and Lizzie . I don't know what it is, but I just can't muster up any emotion for these two. It truly doesn't matter to me if they're together or not.

Another excellent show today. Finally an episode where I enjoyed Rick, I enjoy for the moment. I loved his talk with Beth. At the end of the showed it reaffirmed to me, Rick knows where Philips residing.

Another surprise for me, I felt bad for Bill today. The Jim Beam bottle isn’t going to do him any favors. I do like Bill and Lizzie as a couple. All though it’s been a very long process, most of time endless boredom. I just didn’t like Alan interfering with who Lizzie should love. They truly love each other.


My heart goes out to Buzz; I hope he will be all right. Loved Frankies reaction to
finding out about Coop and Beth. Coop and Beth are living in lover’s paradise right now. Looking forward to how the show will be writing Coop out.

Loved Jessica's L today.


I’ve liked Cyrus and Lizzy’s friendship. All though slightly tainted in my opinion.
Cyrus will be another disappointment to her when she finds out about Cyrus/Grady’s involvement in her kidnapping.
