Royal Pains (USA)

The brother reminds me of the BIL on Weeds. Always a smart a**! I love this show though!

I dont see that. Evan is a sidekick here.. Andy has a much deeper storyline. I think the character of Andy is much better in the writing as well.

I agree that Evan is more of a sidekick - but don't shortchange him. He's the reason Hank is the Hamptons in the first place, as well as being the main catalyst to the creation of Hank Med.

Anyway, no new ep's this week... BUT it looks like USA is going to air the first four episodes in a mini-marathon this Sunday.

I wouldn't mind catching up, plus I can't think of anything better to do on a lazy Sunday (after a weekend full of holiday partying) than vegging on the couch.

Thanks for the tip. Looks like the weather here will keep us indoors on Sunday. If the weather isn't a good enough reason to stay home, the tourist traffic will be!

I'm enjoying this show....it's got drama, humor, and fairly good characters who connect and don't connect. And a bit of mystery thrown in about the Big Wig whose place their staying at. Two thumbs up. =^.^=

Anybody figure out what was in that tank? Didn't he at first say it was a mermaid? Then it turns out to be some sort of shark? What's so secretive about a shark unless Mr. Russian plans on feeding his enemies to it.

I really liked the medical issues on this last show, they were interesting and entertaining.

The guy with the tick in his ear was driving me crazy because I couldn't place him. I believe he played the older brother on Even Stevens. The Disney show where Shia LaBeouf (Transformer fame) co-starred.

Normally I either love all the side kicks and don't like the star or I like the star and can't stand all the side kicks. This is the first show in a very long time (other than My Boys) where I like them all! Which of course means it will be canceled soon....*sighs*

I'm guessing either it's an endangered shark species or maybe there is a law against owning them in the private sector (assuming it was the shark that was in the transport tank). Whatever the reason, I like the mystery of Boris. I was bummed that it was a rerun last week.

[Harmony2000]

I could have sworn they were calling it a Sand Shark. Sand sharks are native to that part of the country and far as I could tell online they are not a threat to humans and while they are a species of concern, they are not endangered. So there goes the idea of him feeding his enemies to it....so the shark might just be a decoy for what is really in that tank.

I love mysteries! LOL

Wonderful episode last night. Mrs. Newberg's "bark mitzvah" was hysterical and the dog's name was Koufax! How perfect was that? Then Mrs. Newberg says taht her decesaed husband was Jewish and that's how they agreed to raise the "children."

I also loved the relationship between Mrs. Newberg and her housekeeper. There was such respect and caring on both sides. Christine Ebersole is outstanding in this role.

Looks like next week we get to learn a little more about Boris. I didn't think I'd like this show, but I actually stay up for it (on top of recording it)
Love it.

I wonder what's wrong with Boris, and that didn't take long for Hank and Jill to start having problems.
