We're settling into the home stretch here ladies and gents.
I can't believe we're already more than halfway done with this season.
Will the wall come down this ep? What shenanigans are going to take place?
Spoilers and Squeeage down below!

Date: 2013-07-25 05:32 am (UTC)- I don't think I ever enjoyed a pre-title sequence so much. Their commentating was hilarious, especially Jared's about how blue the pitcher's eyes were (Peter only complained because he was jealous). Then Jared laughing at Peter's bat-holding skills. And then Peter reeling Jared into the elevator and then tackling him which was the most adorable thing ever, even if we only saw half of it as the doors closed.
- Since when was Peter a baseball player? Back in 1x05 he seemed completely clueless about it but now it was a lost dream? Their history continues to befuddle.
- Jared continuing to be an awesome boyfriend by placating Peter when the heckler was insulting him.
- Their heckling was excellent. Oh, and Carmen's back! But not Pindar. AGAIN. The look she gave to Jared's reaction when Charlie called was totally "Jealous, much?"
- Jared again being an awesome and supportive boyfriend by giving Peter relationship advice. He just wants him to be happy.
- "What happens in the locker room, stays in the locker room." Really? And then we don't get a locker room scene? I mean, really?
- Peter is apparently a needy boyfriend, calling Charlie every ten minutes. But I think most of us suspected this about him already. I like that they're at least trying to make a likeable and fleshed out love interest. Jury's still out on how I feel about her and her with Peter though.
- Loved Damien finally standing up for himself because I was really starting to hate that judge guy. But now he's going to be framed for his murder :( I have faith that F&B will work their lawyer magic to get him off though. That came out wrong...
- Finally, Jared arranging for Peter to have a batting session with Randy Johnson. Did you say 'best boyfriend EVER'? Because he might just be. Seriously, nobody makes Peter smile like Jared does. Sorry, Charlie. Also, the height difference between Jared and Randy, and Jared calling himself Mini Unit? Too freakin' cute!
Yes! I managed my entire review without making any pitcher/catcher puns. I almost feel bad about that.

Date: 2013-07-25 10:05 am (UTC)I hate their past with a firey passion. Peter played football in HS, didn't he? (maybe they couldn't make 'football heckling' into a problem?) And baseball was more of Jared's thing. (but I also kind of like the idea that Peter played all the sports because in HS he got seriously into fitness and Jared wasn't really on any teams because he was tiny and also so that he could go and hang around Peter's practices because if he didn't (and was at practive of his own) then he'd never see Peter during sport seasons)
I'm sort of over Charlie at this point. I mean, I want her to be happy and have an awesome new job, but I'm done with her and Peter.
God, Damien standing up for himself was the best thing ever. (along with him not being good at golf and having better hair... everything about Damien is wonderful)

Date: 2013-07-25 12:13 pm (UTC)On a somewhat related note, I want a hug this season. We had two in S1 and none last season. It's time for more hugging. But I'd settle for cuddling on the couch.

Date: 2013-07-26 01:19 am (UTC)This was the best. Cause MPG really snatches him back quick. ^_^ Adorbs.
I second the need for a hug. Maybe when Charlie inevitably leaves for good.

Date: 2013-07-26 04:52 am (UTC)Steve and Danny have only known each other a few months and didn't even get on that well to begin with, and they've had more hugs and just touching than Peter and Jared have had in the three-ish years out of twenty-five-ish that we've been watching them. It's really not fair.

Date: 2013-07-27 04:51 am (UTC)Mmmmmhmhmmmhmmmmm. MAKES ME ALL WARM INSIDE.
And oh god a hug. I would give so much for a hug.

OH. YES OKAY I ACCEPT THIS.
I want her to be happy and have an awesome new job, but I'm done with her and Peter.
SO MUCH. I could rant for hours, but I won't, but I could.
Not being good at golf was SO BRILLIANT of Damien. But it turns out his life was better when he was just doing the boring cases and pining for Hanna, the moment he gets his personality back he's on trial for murder. WOE IS HE.

Date: 2013-07-27 04:19 am (UTC)if it doesn't get renewed in a couple weeks, I will personally fly us all to TNT HQ to protest
LSKDHFOIWEJFSDF. They need to just accept that they've accidentally made the most beautiful thing in the world and promise to carry on doing that. Pretty much forever please. Yes.
Ugh. I don't know why we have no lift fic when they're SO STUPIDLY PERFECT AT LIFTS. the reeling him in was incredible enough, but the tackling was JUST LOVE JUST PURE OH MY GOD YOU ARE TOO GORGEOUS I AM GOING TO TOUCH YOU IN A MANLY CUDDLE WAY.
The baseball/Peter thing really annoyed me and nearly spoiled this episode for me. It's such a stupid lack of continuity and they could surely have made it be about Jared, and I know we see Jared fanboying a lot but i don't care.
The look she gave to Jared's reaction when Charlie called
YESSSSSSSS IT WAS BEAUTIFUL:)

Date: 2013-07-27 09:05 am (UTC)They've characterised Jared as the fanboy and they need to stick to it. Peter can have music to fanboy over (although even during 2x04, Jared was fanboying for Peter when he realised who he was presiding over).
Lastly, Carmen is a PI. She knows everything, Jared...
