#michaela has such a thing for him 😍

[edmarienism]

in mjhamilton's new podcast episode they said this (at the 36:00 mark):

michaela: ... i was talking about this with my clever husband and edvin ryding, who is staying at our place, when we were at the beach malin: ah yes, he's been living at your place for a bit, he's here to do a casting- mi: he's here ma: it's not the other edvin, there's many edvins mi: edvin törnblom will be here in a few weeks. now it's edvin ryding. he's a here for a few days and lives with us. he had booked a hotel but we said no -----------------------------------

so it sounds like he did go to la to do a specific casting, exciting! looks like he probably is not staying for long though, i was kinda hoping he'd stay for a while to do lots of meetings and auditions and also still be in la when omar's coming

aaah okay 🙏🏻 that sounds good tho! i'm truly praying for him this works out 🥹🥹 (and i'm sure he met up with his agency at least once anyway)

but i'm guessing edmar reunion in LA is just a dream then... i'm gonna go cry in my pillow brb

[a--a---a]

tell me what you thought about season 3 of bridgerton. I also had really mixed feelings about the Michaela/Michael thing (like the last person) but overall the season was really okay for me. it felt like the PR was more than we got but otherwise I liked most it. i could have done without the Mondrich storyline and the 8 Benedict sex scenes but it was good.

I agree: The season was generally good. I liked it and have watched it several times now. (That is 90% my Nicola Coughlan obsession speaking, but nonetheless.)

Things that I thought were OUTSTANDING:

Agatha/Violet scenes - I fucking love them. Agatha is my fav character in the whole show, and that friendship is amazing. I am an Agatha, Charlotte, and Penelope girly as my top 3.

That scene outside of Genevieve's ("What good am I to you?") because fuck yes, Penelope. - Put that man in his place. Sometimes your only need for a man is to want him there because you love him.

Colin crying - 'nuff said.

Kanthony - there could have been more, but I understand.

Francesca & John - so relatable. I know you talked about Michaela being contentious, but I am excited for her. Again, I didn't read the books. I just want wlw. I loved John's interactions with the boys.

"You Belong With Me" for their wedding dance??? It's THEIR SONG, and I was so happy about it!

Lord Anderson - I am looking forward to him and Violet "gardening" in s4.

the Featheringtons and their character growth.

Nicola Coughlan's perfect breasts. 🥵😍

Things I DID NOT LIKE/WANTED MORE OF:

Not enough Polin scenes. Just in general there were not enough. Spicy would have been fine, but I am in the same camp as many that say they wanted more happy married life before the baby was born.

Colin accusing Penelope of trapping him and then never apologizing for it.

Colin telling Penelope she "has no say" in how the LW blackmail thing got handled. Like 🛑. You are JUST a man, Colin.

Luke Newton's wig for the wedding specifically (but it made other appearances).

Pen's wedding dress could have been more fairytale (but I do love how it highlighted her complexion, etc.).

Not enough Lord Debling/he didn't go with Cressida. I know she was the pt 2 villain, but like...he will be gone for three years.

Eloise was incredibly annoying without Pen. I didn't realize how Pen changed her and maybe softened her in ways. Her without that person to maybe not tame but guide her really showed that.

Too much Mondrichs. I think it would be cool if their son fell in love with Hyacinth and it was another friends to lovers we got to see evolve over time, but besides the ball and finally giving up the club, I feel like maybe 3 scenes in total would have been fine.

Too many Benedict sex scenes. The last was my fav by far, but for the most part they were fillers and didn't drive the plot. If they did it would have been different.

There's probably more, but that's all I've got.

I do think this is my favorite season yet because of Penelope, but there could have been changes. I hope they drop those deleted scenes, but even if they don't i am pretty satisfied with what we got. 💛

9-1-1 5x04 review

Watched the episode, and I am mad! 😡

it’s bad enough that the lazy writers had Maddie leaving because of suffering of ppd instead of showing that there is a different way.

But they have Chimney taking off with Jee-Yun to find her. Which means no Maddie or Chimney for quite a while. 😭

No uncle Buck moments🥺 - because it was important to the writers to burn that bridge, with one precise punch while having a tantrum, so there was no way Chimney would leave Jee with her uncle, or even her pseudo grandparents.

I feel robbed. And I miss Maddie!😩

Also the cheerleaders confusion, was heartbreaking, I was crying the entire time. - super depressing ��😭

The light points of this episode for me were: 

* The bonding moment between May and Harry, they both having crisis moments, Harry with the aftermath of being kidnapped - being mad - rightfully so - at his parents. 

(I haven’t written a meta for the first 3 episodes, but I will say, that even though Athena was a victim here, the first thing I thought, screamed at the tv actually, as soon as that creep ran away was to warn her family. At no point did she tell them and that led to Michael not screening the guests at the house party (yes it was a party), but seriously at all times he should have known where his son was and I’m guessing after watching the news and nearly losing Athena to him, he should have recognized that there was a criminal in his house.)

And poor May, who had trouble to comprehend the large diva- personality that befell her. 

Yes, Claudette may be a rock star, but she is a diva, I simply called her a bitch. I met and worked with people like her, Josh’s advice was terrible. The best way to deal with people like this is either to stroke their ego under the guise of learning or completely stay out of their way.

Considering May does not need her to become a dispatcher, since she already is one, staying out of Claudette’s way is the best course of action imo.

So yeah, eating ice cream and sharing how annoying current life progression is between the Grant siblings, was one my favorite moments. - I love that May managed to get Harry to open up, if even a little, when others could not - that’s a real older sister right there! :)

* Buddie moments: Yes there were more than one, I know that they didn’t get to work together but, the fact that Cassie asked about Michaela instead of giving out her own name, reminded me of Eddie asking for Buck and checking to see if he’s okay, while he himself was bleeding out on the firetruck’s floor. 

The entire thing was heartbreaking, but there was some recognition of that thought on Eddie’s face in the hospital, that made me think about that moment in 4X14.

The second moment was happier, obviously, when Eddie comes to Buck’s house after Chimney punched him. Offering Ice, beer and advice.

They were super cute, and Eddie reading the situation better than anyone could, because Eddie knows Buck better than anybody. I also had a recall moment back to the beginning of S3 where Buck, who usually takes care of everyone and fixes everything, was the one who needed being taken care of, but there was no one there to do it. 

Eddie is aware how very similar the Buckley siblings are, and he indeed made a 180° when it comes to catching Buck, as S4 shows.

Eddie reminds Buck that the Maddie he usually knows is not necessarily the Maddie that exist now. This Maddie is in the same position Buck was in S3a, only her way of dealing is stepping back instead of fighting to get back the ground she lost.

The situations are not the same, obviously, but Maddie, who usually takes care of everyone is the one who needs taking care of. Eddie may not have spent much time with Maddie, but he has with Buck and he can see the bigger picture clearer than anyone.

I do love that Eddie teases Buck about Chimney forgiving him, and then goes “Ice goes on the eye bud.” 😂❤

Also that cute shy smile Buck gives Eddie when he teases him? My insides melt just thinking about it. 😍😍😍😍😍

One more thing that pops into my head is the parallel of Madney and buddie here.

Buck says: “But I know she’s gonna be okay,” (which by the way is legitimate because Maddie left Buck and came back to him so many times throughout his life that at this point he’s used to it - that’s why when he tells Chim “Nothing happened to her, she just left.” I pretty much nodded with him, because this is Maddie’s MO. Where Buck fights, she Flights. - it’s that simple.) “He just doesn’t know her the way I do.”

Eddie replies: “Or you don’t know her the way he does.”

This screamed - 'buddie in a nutshell' to me. Because everyone know Buck in one way - the reckless, the brash, the loud one. We all made so many comparisons in 4x14 that you all know what I’m talking about.

But Eddie, he knows Buck in another way, he sees him differently, the Buck that everyone “know” is not the same Buck that Eddie knows. (”Because Evan” comes to mind..🤔)

So yeah, my new all time favorite buddie moment is now the balcony scene.

***

Hen coming to see Chimney off was also very emotional, but I was too mad to really appreciate it, I do however have to say how much I love their friendship, and how well Hen knows Chimney to be able to catch him just before he skips out of town.

I’m looking forward for Eddie and Hen working together, they have before and it’s pretty awesome to watch.

I can already see the probie working with Buck future problems coming on, When Eddie came he had experience, and he was battle tried already, probie is a newly minted civilian turned firefighter who is nowhere near as equipped to working as seamlessly with Buck as Eddie is and I can already see the trouble brewing.

Tbh the only thing I can see not working for Eddie and Hen is the fact that when Chimney is away for too long she gets short tempered. To those who watched from the beginning this is a call back to S1 when Chimney was on medical leave from the rebar incident, and Hen kept snapping at everyone - Bobby even stated “I can’t wait for Chim to come back”. 😂😂

Also if I’m being really honest I thought for sure Buck would say “Where’s Eddie when you need him?” When the were working on extracting the poor science teacher from all the metal bars.

So I really can’t wait for next week!! (btw is anyone else in a non-belief state that Athena is going to slap Harry? Because I really hope I was hallucinating.) 

Happy Tuesday everyone! 

[delilahmidnight]

If nate was really so affected by what happened to wes and what he told him about Annalise, why didn’t he try to talk to her before now?

But anyways I’m all for letting black men be vulnerable/emotional and cry on tv

God she looks so defeated

Michaela tryna placate her gf

Bitty with her arms wrapped around herself!!

Connor is so manipulative and also fake af–he doesn’t give a shit about wes

Bonnie putting the trashbag in his place, resisting his influence, not wanting anything to do with him 👌👌👌👏👏👏👐👐👐👀👀👀🙌🙌🙌🙌

Nice, shes going over the ADAs head. Pulling out the big guns

Ooh laurels hiring a private investigator?!

Baby needs her power food–chocolate syrup only fuels her and makes her stronger 😂

Asking bitty what she thinks ❤❤ She knows shits about to go down

Lmao shes like not even shouting? Dont tell her not to raise her voice

My KIDDO!!! IS!!! SO!!! BRAVE!!!!! STANDING UP TO THE ADAS OFFICE LIKE THAT

Asher being so protective of annalise im!!

Michaela protecting laurels right to grieve and telling annie to be straight with her and annie agreeing and admitting how she admires michaela for holding everyone else up by herself

Oh no, they might have made things a lot worse

And bitty wanting to help as usual ❤❤

“I’m no joke.” Oh annalise

Michaela barging into laurels apartment and asher thinking shes “banging that dude” howie 😂

ASHER AND MICHAELA lmfao

Soraya calling to check in!!❤!!❤😁💕 I love supportive friendships between women of color!!!❤💕😍

WAIT WAIT–ANNALISE HAS KEYS TO BONNIES HOUSE SJFJJGKSHFKKD???

Shes literally just trying to protect them all, has been since day one, why can’t they see it?

Everyone recoiling in horror at Annalise’s outburst/revelation, and bonnie looking down like she can’t bear to see her in pain

God its so unfair–she wanted to do the right thing and get justice and she lost everything for it

What the fuck is wrong with Laurel? She’s fucking pregnant with wes’s baby, she should fucking understand what annalise is going thru and trying to do for them!!

My baby has vicodin for chronic pain?? Why?? :(

Ugh asher is such a dope but like he really does try

On the other hand Connor is literally like….the devil like. Whatt he fuxk. And why is michaela defending him, asher made good points about him??

Lmao annalise is Not Straight shdhfjsgd you morons

I just can’t get over how, even after all this time, bonnie tilts her head and curls up her fingers because she’s so uncomfortable with herself, so convinced that she doesn’t deserve to take up space, it drives me crazy

Coming to check up on laurel and acknowledging how much shes been thru ❤

Oh god bonnies face when laurel asks about annie being pregnant–about annie being almost happy–im gonna eat my pillow fuc k

Bitty offering laurel the option of an abortion and keeping it from annalise if need be–she fucking cares about laurel, otherwise why would she even bother?

And then laurel just throws it back in her face like that g o d

Shut the fuck uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppppppp oh my god I don’t care about frank at aaaaaaalllllllllllll

Oh no–

Oh thank god. She went to soraya instead. God them reaching out to connect and help each other and let each other know they care about each other makes me so–makes me…..so…..so………

Oh no.

Oh no oh no oh no. No please.

I CANT BELIEVE IT. I CANNOT. FUCKING. BELIEVE IT. THE ONE PERSOJ–THE ONE FUCKING PERSON WHO COULD ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN A GOOD FUCKING FRIEND TO ANNALISE, AND SHE TURNS OUT TO BE A MOLE I’M SO–

ATTENTION!!! ATTENTION!!! MY BITTY HAS BUTTERFLIES ON HER COFFEE MUGS

I REPEAT: BUTTERFLIES. ON. HER. COFFEE MUGS. THIS BITTY IS REALLY THAT BUTTERFLY BXTCH I CANT BELIEB–

Tryna console annalise and not being able to find the solution which is making her even more stressed–the way she leans on counters like shes got the whole world on your shoulders gosh she is so strong but so tired my b a b y

The desperate way she almost cries when she says “a suspect who isn’t you”–doesn’t annalise realize bonnie would burn the whole damn world to the ground if it meant protecting annalise?

Both asher and connor are turned on by frank and Michaela is just so beyond confused

Bitty is SO bitty in that courtroom, especially next to caveman frank

THAT SLY LITTLE SMILE SHE GIVES WHEN FRANK TELLS THEM NATE WAS ATWOODS BF

SHES SO SNEAKY I LOVE IT

YESS IT WORKED!!!

HO SHIT IT GOT NATE OFF THE HOOK TOO FUCK YEAH

Oh no…but I’m inclined to agree with asher on this, a missing body that turns out to be cremated? That’s sketchy af

Yeah connor you little bitch, step the fuck off (sidenote, Bonnie acknowledging laurels shitty behavior but also the justification behind it is 👌👌👌)

Oh, shes angry because she doesn’t know who to blame–or the only people she can blame are beyond reach and too dangerous to touch. I understand now.

Bonnie is about to throw the fuck down the second she hears Connor's been falsely accusing annie, circling him like a lioness moving in for the kill–and Michaela backing up asher over protecting connor omg

Bonnies literally gonna kill connor omg

God poor annie–she has no one to turn to in this and she feels so powerless to get him justice to boot–im dying inside but like it’s fine lol
