[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that Randall has become insufferable - smug, sanctimonious, and holier-than-thou.  Also agree that the last scene was a heartbreaker.  But I’m thinking Randall needs a lot more therapy to get beyond his issues.  He’s just incredibly annoying and controlling right now.

What has happened to Dave Annable?  His voice is so hard to listen to.  I don’t recall him having that strange voice/lisp when he was on Brothers & Sisters - anyone else?  I was SO glad Rebecca ditched him (politely, of course).  He’s not worthy.[/quote]

Agree about his voice. So strange. Why was his hair like that?
It actually really bothered me she kept flip-flopping with him. These characters are so self-involved. He thinks horse and carriage rides are cheesey and terrible for the horses? They are! Chill out, Rebecca.

And the Rebecca and Jack perfect couple thing is just TOOOOO MUCH already. Your husband getting your family lost in NYC because he won't listen to you is infuriating. Not, hey, what's going on with you, babe, stop, you're the best babe, let's get pretzels and make out now.[/quote]

I think she was just really sensitive about the carriage ride because Jack had made it a fun, special experience for the whole family and she didn't appreciate it being called "cheesy."  But I totally agree with your last paragraph - it's tiresome seeing perfect Jack and Rebecca, always so kind and respectful to each other.  I mean, it would be great if that was real life for long-married couples, but we all usually have some moments we aren't proud of.  I wish they'd show something like that.  And agree about the making out in front of the kids scene.  A kiss?  No problem.  But it was a little gross that they kept at it.  [/quote]

They DID show something like that a few seasons back, when there was significant tension between Rebecca and Jack when he was drinking and she was singing professionally again.[/quote]

I'm talking about the more mundane moments in life - not dealing with a big crisis.  Just a bad mood or a snippy remark.  We never see them behaving the way real couples often do.[/quote]

How are they perfect? Jack fees insecure because Rebecca is more cultured and had nicer childhood memories so he gets testy and anxious. Rebecca feels she needs to present her perfect memories and parents in a bad light to placate him. He won’t learn from her, he won’t let her lead. How is this a perfect relationship?[/quote]
