MP S06.E20: A Swing And A Mrs. May 01, 2023

Show notes

So the last episode showed us that Christine was definitely alive; definitely wrote that letter years ago that Taylor apparently forgot about and had to go to Dallas to have Nick explain; and definitely was really injured in the war, she's also in cahoots with Nick, against Kyle. In this one, we're told that although money is apparently involved, and Christine doesn't feel great about her part in it, and this is also kind of a plan FOR Kyle, in the sense of rekindling his friendship with Nick? But other than that there is a plan, we don't know what it is, except that it involves Christine acting like she really needs a lot of attention from Kyle and is still constantly thinking about suicide -- and, honestly, how much acting is involved is an open question. As A plots go, we've had better! Moving on: Lexi has moved out of Peter's place, and (chastely) in with Coop. Megan is upset that Coop could throw her over so easily, so she heads straight back to Michael, and damn the danger of seeing him at the clinic. Peter, meanwhile, is upset that he's still being blamed for Thomas's death, and for some reason thinks Coop will help exonerate him. As Billy and Sam drift apart, Billy and Jennifer get close...on the dance floor! It's for a campaign Billy's working on, and it's also part of a campaign Jennifer's working on Billy. And that's our pitch for you to check out our podcast on "A Swing And A Mrs."!

MP S06.E19: Last Train To Baghdad Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

The time has come for a midseason two-parter, and new characters are popping off. Having mooched some extra ER shifts from Peter, Michael meets a shady gentleman (how shady? His name is Spider), who encourages Michael to revive the shuttered medical clinic in his neighborhood. Much as we were expected to believe that Michael doesn't know how strip clubs work, we're also expected to believe he doesn't understand the quid pro quo implied. Meanwhile, with Mrs. Mancini still in town, Jennifer has to keep asking Billy to pose as Craig -- and since Sam is still head over heels for Jeff, she has no problem giving Billy permission to do it and leave her alone, basically. And after Lexi's father Thomas suffers a health emergency in the middle of a conversation with Peter, Michael's ex-wife, Megan, stumbles secret knowledge about it that she wishes she never had. Mancinis: drama magnets! When Kyle and Christine have an awkward reunion that immediately resurrects Angry Kyle, Christine enlists Amanda to help her smooth things over. She does, in the hopes of giving the former couple a pleasant, healthy, and final goodbye, which unfortunately is not the result. All aboard: we've brought you a podcast on "Last Train To Baghdad"!

MP S06.E18: Mama Mia Apr 17, 2023

Show notes

We join Jennifer just as she's absorbing horrifying news: Mia Mancini, mother to Jennifer and Michael, is coming for a visit -- just as her children's lives are falling apart! Michael has to do some fancy footwork to explain why he doesn't want to bring Mia to his office, but it works, and when Mia mistakes Billy for Craig, Jennifer just decides to run with it! Billy is more willing to play along than he might otherwise be since Sam is preoccupied: landing Jeff Baylor means committing to have her run his campaign, and although Jeff knows she's married, he maaaaaybe doesn't care, and maybe Sam doesn't either what with Billy being such a jerk to her all the time. Taylor guides Amanda to finding out more information about Christine, but slightly overplays her hand by telling Amanda things only Nick knew, which Amanda then repeats to Kyle. But everything changes when Kyle very belatedly receives a letter Christine wrote him years ago. Thomas only has one scene, but he makes it count: Sterling Conway Enterprises has acquired either GloveCo or its heart valve division, meaning Lexi and Coop are going to be partners again! In business...for now. Here we go again: we've brought you a podcast on "Mama Mia"!

MP S06.E17: Coop De Grace Apr 10, 2023

Show notes

Once again, the medical practice is a flashpoint for drama. Peter can plainly tell that Lexi's father Thomas has no respect for him, because Thomas is not even pretending to hide it. (It's not like we can really say Thomas is WRONG to think Peter is bad news for his daughter, but since he much prefers Coop for her, it's not like his judgment is perfect.) Coop is keeping a close eye on Michael and Amber, noting their cohabitation and making sure Amber gets invited to a big reception the practice is throwing to impress a bunch of "hospital bigwigs." Once there, Coop doesn't let her champagne glass empty, and though the consequences are predictable, we must ALSO say that Coop had nothing to do with Amber showing up in what would be quite brief even as a nightgown, plus also braless; Michael did THAT to her/himself. Amanda's recovery takes a sudden turn for the better, just in time for Taylor to track Nick down in Dallas, break into his apartment, talk up the jazz club, and get the full story of Christine the Marine. Dr. Mosley returns to tell Jennifer all about the dangerous moves Craig is making with GloveCo's new heart valve; and the ad agency's potential new client makes Billy and Sam run down a minor league baseball prospect who's philosophically opposed to endorsements. However, WE can heartily endorse our podcast on "Coop De Grace"!

MP S06.E16: Kyle Of The Desert Mar 27, 2023

Show notes

Our A plot is a good old doctor roundup! Michael is using all his romantic tricks to lock down Amber; when she resists, he (rudely) assumes it's because she's embarrassed about her job and what his friends (who) will think of her, and (annoyingly) the show doesn't let her tell him she's rejecting him for any number of other very good reasons. When Megan dribbles some baloney about never having really dated, Coop suggests that they start their relationship over in a "courtship" mode. Bob, having recovered his memories about the night of the hit-and-run, confronts Peter with a blackmail threat, but he doesn't want money: he wants Peter to break up with Lexi so that Bob can have her for himself. (Billy, Sam, and Jennifer also stop by for one scene, presumably for contractual reasons.) Since Amanda is still paralyzed, Taylor starts looking for ways she can use the situation to her advantage with Kyle, spying on him when he goes looking through his old foot locker. When Taylor actually talks to Amanda, they compare notes on Kyle's Desert Storm nightmares: he's just started having them in Amanda's room, calling out the name "Christine," which is new data for Taylor. But when she snoops around Kyle's things and finds a photo of him with Nick and Christine labeled "The Three Musketeers," she gets an idea. The dry spell since our last episode is over: enjoy our podcast on "Kyle Of The Desert"!

MP S06.E15: Amanda's Back Mar 20, 2023

Show notes

Amanda and Sam's crash site still hasn't been found, and Kyle is DETERMINED to locate it NO MATTER WHAT and REGARDLESS of whose actually experienced toes he steps on!!! (Billy is also there, kind of circling Kyle and yapping like that little dog in the old Looney Tunes cartoon.) Anyway -- spoiler? -- the ladies are located and treated for their injuries, and it turns out Amanda wasn't just whining about her back: it is seriously injured, to the degree that she may be paralyzed. (Or just have to stay in bed for a while because of Heather Locklear's pregnancy.) While Sam is still recovering -- and totally convinced by Billy's version of Connie's snitching about their kiss -- Billy urges Connie to go see her, promising he didn't tell her anything about...you know. GloveCo is thriving, but Coop still wants to get rid of Michael; soft-hearted and/or stupid Megan just wants him to ignore Michael instead. While Peter is occupied by Amanda's treatment, Lexi lavishes her attention onto Bob, in a decision she almost immediately regrets, and will probably rue even more very soon. What's that behind you? We'd never front about this: we've brought you a podcast on "Amanda's Back"!

MP S06.E14: To Kill A Whirlybird Mar 13, 2023

Show notes

The GloveCo lawsuit is behind us...sort of: Michael is so bitter about having been cut out of the business for the obvious reasons that he uses his Chief of Staff position to forbid the glove's use in surgery by ANY hospital personnel. Coop hatches a plan to strip Michael of this authority, but it's going to require that Michael believe a woman who hates him also wants to bone. Hmmm, could it possibly work?! Peter is also an accessory to this plan, but he's got his own problems: Bob is back in town (crutch-free), and since he's looked up Peter and Lexi's address and popped by, Lexi decides to atone for her crime by giving him a job. It's Billy's birthday, and though Sam has planned a huge celebratory extravaganza, it's going to have to wait until next year: Amanda's bringing her on a location scout for a new client's campaign. Left alone with Billy, Connie only needs to wait for him to get slightly tipsy to create the conditions for him to try to make out. But then Charlie shows up and is NOT WHAT WE EXPECTED...in 1998; in 2023 it's been quite obvious for a while. Kyle and Taylor embark on her plan to win their mortgage payment at the craps table in Vegas, as Kyle also does his usual not-great "best" resisting her sexual advances. We're flying in with a podcast on "To Kill A Whirlybird"!

MP S06.E13: A Tree Talks In Melrose Mar 06, 2023

Show notes

Having learned in the last episode that Lexi (a) has a problem with pills and (b) ran a guy over, Jennifer wastes no time putting her intel to use on Michael's behalf: she tells Coop she can get Lexi to release him from his alimony obligation if Coop will drop the lawsuit against Michael and turn over any relevant documents (which she still believes are fake anyway). Evidently, Coop is too focused on winning Megan away from Michael to think through all the implications, and agrees -- so it's too bad that Megan, despite talking big talk about her plans to divorce Michael, seems extremely susceptible to his love bombing via gifts. As Sam gets increasingly distracted by her long hours at work, Connie seems to be taking advantage of her absence by creeping ever closer to Billy (particularly to his lips). And though Kyle's heartbreak over Amanda is making him even worse at business than usual, a well-timed visit by JON SECADA has Taylor hatching plans to save their lease...and also......make a balloon payment on their mortgage? We can't promise to sort out all the real estate nonsense as we talk "A Tree Talks In Melrose"!

MP S06.E12: A Bump In The Night Feb 27, 2023

Show notes

We've said a lot of hurtful things about Coop, because he is a bad character and we have assessed him accurately. But one of the smartest things we've ever seen him do is try to get Craig on his side in the glove lawsuit by showing him the hard evidence that proves Coop really did come up with the idea first. When Jennifer is present for Craig's deposition, where he truthfully testifies about it, she confronts Michael about what he may have gotten her into; Michael has her on side, but he's going to have to do some fancy footwork to keep her there, which will be hard now that his attention is split between that and obsessing about Megan and Coop's burgeoning relationship. Peter returns to the scene of Lexi's hit-and-run and finds the victim, an unhoused person named Bob. Though he tries to keep Lexi from finding out what she did, even she is able to put the pieces together when the cops show up and tell her about the person Peter saved after some scofflaw ran him over. Amanda continues to be distressed about Kyle, and Taylor continues to be a brat about it. And as Sam continues killing her pitches in Seattle, Billy has a hard time finding reasons to avoid his very friendly new roommate, Connie. Did you hear that? Don't worry, it's just our podcast on "A Bump In The Night"!
