Dear John: The Racialicious Roundtable For FlashForward 1.16

jen*: Mildly is right. Wedeck and the VP [who I kinda like] made the Jericho thing WAY more interesting than it had been, but still barely peripheral. If they take a long time unwrapping that package, I will be snoozing before you know it.

Diana: They have been taking way too long in bringing these pieces together. Last time we saw the VP, she was at Wedeck’s throat. Now she pops up just when we have forgotten all about her and she’s asking Wedeck for favors? The continuity is just nonexistent. But I love Wedeck, so I’m glad to see him getting more play.

Back to Dem: are we to believe that he never even told Zoey that (quite possibly) he and Janis tried to conceive, let alone that he, uh, made that shot, too?

Andrea: Waaaaaaaiiiiit….are we sure they even had sex and she conceived because of it? (Praying for sperm donor, praying for sperm donor, praying for sperm donor….) After Simon the Hobbit’s aroused response to figuring out Janis was a mole, I’m not so sure that didn’t become a point of seduction. (Really praying for sperm donor, really praying for sperm donor, really praying for sperm donor…)

Mahsino: I’m hoping a turkey baster or some sort was involved.

Diana: I’m with Andrea and on my knees praying. I’m hoping Demetri was apologizing for not being able to get it up after making the offer. And, if Janis is a mole, isn’t it possible that she is just straight up lying about her flash forward?

jen*: Exactly – that’s what I started thinking about last week. Simon’s lying, why not her? And seriously, I still don’t think it was really him … them … together – just – NO. But maybe I should pray, too.

Andrea: ::scoots over on the kneeler to make room for jen*::

Mahsino: Sorry ladies, but while I hope it ain’t so, the pessimist in me is willing to bet that they did the hibbity-jibity. This show has just gotten too tolerable for it to go any other way.

Even if he got knocked the hell out in his own home, at least Demetri sings better than Vogel, no?

Andrea: On that point alone is why Vogel and Dem can’t partner up: If ya can’t sing with the same person who’s supposed to have your back, then that person just may not have your back. And Vogel gives me the deep impression that he has no one’s back. At all.

jen*: Of course he doesn’t. He wasn’t even around for the transfer of the mole, which I thought would have been all up in his line of business. But ooh wee! John Cho can carry a tune – he’s officially everything on my list – how can I meet this guy??? /teencrushjen* ::clearing throat:: No, Andrea, I wouldn’t pair up Vogel and Dem either. They are not likely to make good partners.

Mahsino: No, they wouldn’t make good partners, but they’d be nice to look at.

Diana: Cho can carry this show by himself. Boy, I wish Al wasn’t dead. Any way of creating Al’s twin to be Dem’s partner? That would be delish!

jen*: Seriously. Seeing Al in the flashbacks was bittersweet.

Open Mic!

Andrea: I’m thrilled the new Racialicious Patron Dude of Hawt got some major play this week. I just wish this happened sooner … like every blessed week of this show’s run. All that time wasted … SMDH. On a positive note: he makes a cute drunk, complete with the hugginess. Or a damn good motivational speaker. Can’t tell which.:-D

jen*: Seriously – SO much time wasted. And for what? So we could learn weird stuff about Lloyd and Simon? Eh. But, um, how about that awkwardness between Mrs. Benford and Lloyd? I didn’t get the whole reason why she went to his house. But … whatever, if I were her, I’d rather be with Steve, I mean, Lloyd, too.

Diana: Really, what took Olivia so long? Her whole fidelity battle kind of went out with a whimper.
