A Million Little Things

This show is such a disappointment.

Am I suppose to feel sorry for Rome? His wife told him that she did not want kids when they got married. He cannot be that surprised that she still feels the same way.

I am not sure why I keep watching. I guess because the show has so much potential. It just does not live up to it.

I agree with you, all of it.
I was rolling my eyes when Rome wanted to buy the family car instead. His irresponsible attitude about trying out parenting was childish. Especially the timing when she’s going to be so extra busy. What if the heavy toll of being a parent those early infant toddler pre-k years (and beyond of course) worsen his depression? Gina will be left being essentially a single mom, for something she was never onboard with. Good for her to stay her ground. Season two better not have a storyline about Gina changing her mind.

The 9/11 flight, friend’s death storyline is so underwhelming and BM’s behavior so odd (jogging by their house to enter that house- what’s she trying to find out?). Plus BM changed her first name, she doesn’t want to be found (turns away Gary), her husband freaks out D is in the house. It all points to PJ being Jon’s child. And that D’s newborn actually was Jon’s, not Eddie’s.

I’m guessing this is the case and would explain why Jon wasn’t angry when he found out about his close friend having an affair with Delilah - because Jon was guilty of the same thing

I finally made myself watch it. The acting on this show -- from everyone! -- is so completely terrible.

Am I the only one uneasy with a tragedy like 9/11 being turned into schtick for a TV show? It doesn't seem to be something to trivialize. There are actually people out there who actually were supposed to be on those planes, and they weren't. The whole thing just strikes me as bad taste, ABC.

Is Eddie telling Katherine that he's the father of that baby? He's such a screw up.

Agree, PP. There is not much about the show that isn't in bad taste. So poorly written. I will not be back.

So I tried again with the season premiere, and I still hate it. There is not one single person I like on this entire show. Do any of these people even take a sh*t without informing the others? I adore Romany Malco but I can't watch this show even for him.

I can’t believe it’s on for another season. I don’t think I can make myself watch it.

I hate-watched the show last season but actually thought this season premiere was pretty good. I keep thinking it was a mistake to introduce the suicide angle because there was a sufficient amount of drama in the rest of the plot lines. Unlike the first few seasons of Desperate Housewives where the suicide was genuinely clouded in mystery that moved the plot forward, it seemed to be done for simple shock value here.

I honestly do not know why I watch this show. Delilah can't act ... the little Asian kid (who does not look 1/2 white at all, casting fail) can't act, and the storylines are unbelievable. And yet ...

Her “partial accent” is distracting and she always looks perplexed. The short comic guy with the beard is also annoying. Gary? Does he have to have a funny or cute retort for everything?

I hate every character except for Rome and his wife the chef whose name escapes me and Catherine. Can this show crap all over Catherine any more?
Eddie is a manchild who sleeps with his best friends wife, gets her pregnant and then decides he loves his hardworking wife who kept the lights on while he gave guitar lessons and snuck around having an affair and got to be a rock star for a month.

Yes!!! Her accent is so annoying and her expression(s) are one-dimensional. Yup, Gary ... he’s overboard with the “quips” ... I don’t know what his GF sees in him.

Yeah, this is where I am too. Done.

Their group forgave Eddie and Delilah too quickly.
I also loathe it when a character is supposed to be desired, and no one outside that tv bubble can figure out why.
Jon loved Delilah. Eddie loved Delilah. The random guy at the gas station who helped her with the restaurant really, really liked Delilah.
She's skinny, mopey and semi-helpless.
Where's the appeal?

Ha agreed she’s pitiful BUT seeing that she is so helpless I can see her appealing to men with a savior/rescue complex
