OH
BROTHER!

It all began with this blog header (cast photo) over at Chalk and Talk (in a larger, clearer version). I commented on it and casually asked Jenny if she knew when Brothers and Sisters ( my favourite show at the moment) would be returning to our screens.

Jenny replied that it had been screening for about a month or so in Melbourne and assumed it would be the same in Sydney! This is when I started to panic...and google! Googled and googled, hoping that someone would tell me this was a mistake - and that Sydney were yet to air season 2. But alas, there was no mistake!

I frantically emailed my sister (also a fan)... she casually replied that yes it has been screening but she has only seen one episode, and that in any case I can catch up!! What the...?!?

Everyone knows I'm a fan. Why did nobody think to tell me it was on!!! ??? This just goes to show that when I say I don't watch any TV, I mean I don't watch any TV - not even ads it seems!! And then it dawned on me...I truly have no control over the television! My husband is forever flicking through Foxtel and when he's not flicking the kids are demanding Max 'n' Milly, or Hi-5 or the Wiggles! I can't win!!!

If it wasn't for Jenny, I'd still be in the dark :(

But thanks to her brilliant choice of blog banner, I got to indulge in my first episode of Brothers and Sisters tonight. Woo Hoo! All I ask for is one uninterrupted hour tro watch TV a week. One.

However, due to the late tune-in, I have a few questions:

a. Did Justin get a return ticket home from the war because of being wounded? Is he now abusing his prescription medication?

b. Why is Rachel Griffith's husband getting custody of the kids when he was the one who cheated? And how come the half-sister is still being welcomed with open arms - does everyone know she instigated the kiss with what's his name? (sorry my mind is blank on names!)

c. What's with Tommy cheating on his wife??? And who is he cheating with? What's that girl's story?

d. If you think of anything else I should know, please share :)

  1. Ok, here goes...
    A. Yes Justin did get to come home because of his stuffed knee. He refused to take his pain meds but everyone talked him into it and now he is indeed abusing them.
    B. Who knows why that knob of a husband got custody!!! TRAGIC. He was a stay-at-home Dad so his argument is that he is the primary care-giver and she works too hard to take care of them properly.
    C. Tommy's wife left him and took the baby as she blames him for the other twin's death! AS a result Tommy has derailed and is having a 'thing' with the office manager.
    D. Saul was confronted by Kevin because he is very suss that Saul is gay. Saul denied it but we don't really know yet.
    I think they are the main developments so far. If I think of anything else I'll let you know.
    Oh, Kevin's boyfriend (McCallister's brother) has left to work in a mission in Malaysia. Still very much in love.
