I'm watching it right now. It's eek!

I thought it was better than last week - it had a much better flow to the story - but I confess I'm struggling to care. It just hasn't gripped me at all.

Random thought - once Bridget decided to assume her sister's identity, why didn't she call the police and tell them it was Bridget who'd taken a header off the boat in the pilot? Would have solved the problem with the guy hunting her, FBI guy AND given her a way to explain her personality change to Siobhan's husband - my sister's death made me realise I want to change my life etc. etc.

'Cause she's not real bright?

I liked last night's episode better than the previous week. I thought it was more suspenseful and interesting than the previous week... but the whole thing is just... too easy. She's too easily fitting into her sister's life. Her relationship with the daughter is too easily improving. Ditto the husband. It's just a little too slick. But the early parts of almost every show are flawed, and I have hope that it'll settle down and get more "real" as time goes by.

Well, I haven't seen last night's ep yet (although iTunes did tell me it was there to be downloaded by about 3:15 am CDT last night...), but I'm sorta wondering how she's going to explain away the whole "Siobhan is pregnant (maybe not so much)" thing. Fake a miscarriage?

No worries. Turns out it's Stan's baby.

I'm not digging this one. Thinking i'll bag it until Jason actually appears. Don't care if I come in lost...

Like Red said earlier, I'm having a hard time caring. There have been a few tense moments, but I find myself feeling rather indifferent as to how they resolve.

I've watched half of the episode. It's better than last week's but one of my pet peeves came up in a scene. When you get in a taxi and say. I need to go to the airport. In NYC the cabbie will growl. JFK, Laguardia or Newark? He won't just start to drive.

I can understand about the airport thing, cassy! It's tv simplification, I guess.

I finally got a chance to watch the second ep, and I liked it better than the first. Very Hitchcock, I thought, with the body in the trunk and everything.

Poor Bridget, she's in over her head.

And I do NOT like that woman who's Andrew's business partner. She's like mean on a stick.

Still not too impressed with Henry. He seems like a loser.

Finally got a chance to watch this. I thought SMG was excellent and I always enjoy watching Ioan Gruffudd so I'm intrigued to watch these two but I confess I was a little lost by the end. So many plot twists to keep up with in one episode. I thought the mirror scene with the twins was brilliantly done but the boat scene looked really cheap.

I'm going to stick with it a little longer and see how it all plays out. It will be interesting to see how Jason fits in to it all.

An unexpected ML crossover on Ringer tonight! "Mineo" (aka Teenvamp) in a very minor part as a store clerk.

Did not get to see tonight's episode. Are we up to Jason yet?

Nope. No Jason. There wasn't more than a bare mention or so of the daughter.

Waiting impatiently...

No. Not sure when Jason is going to be on but he hasn't been in the first three episodes. I'm still watching the show although I don't see how they can sustain it as a multi-year if it lasts that long.

Okay so I know the Fug girls can be mean (and I will never truly forgive them for not appreciating Alex's look at the London BUP premiere) but when they get it right, they get it very right.

They examine Siobhan's and Bridget's wardrobes, and in doing so give a pretty good analysis of the entire show:
