Parenthood (TV show)

[cfriend416]

Oh my goodness. Does anyone on here watch Parenthood? No one I know watches, and I just watched last week's episode and need to talk about it!

I love this show- just watched the most recent episode last night.....I am worried that because this is the last season that it may not all end as happily as I want??!!! Especially after that ending of that show!! Yikes. It was kind of better in the summer I first started watching it and was able to watch it one episode after another....now I have to wait a week.

I'm pretty sure someone is dying this season. Whether it's Zeke or not, I don't know. Somehow, I think some of this Zeke thing is misdirection, and that one of the sibs will die instead.

Or maybe Amber loses the baby? I don't know. I just have a feeling that we are in for some death somewhere. Of course, a family dealing with death is a pretty normal part of life.

I do hope that the lawyer sister gets back together with her husband.

I love this show and am quite irritated it won't be back until January. I also think someone will die, either Zeke or Crosby. I hope nothing happens to Amber or her baby. There are only 4 episodes left. Quit wasting our time on characters we don't care about (Hank, Ruby)!!

Agreed. Did not need to see Mr. Cyr (or however you spell his name) again either, especially since nothing happened.

 

[Mom_Rides]

The writers have lead us to believe that Zeke will die this season. I honestly thought Crosby would die a couple of weeks ago when he got into the motorcycle accident. I think we're looking at a death who I don't know though. I think Amber will go into labor when whoever is dying and I'm certain Joel and Julia will get back together. I too wish they wouldn't waste time on meaningless characters like Ruby. I love this show and am so sad it's ending.

 

[Breezy_Carol]

I am watching also.

The way Adam and Kristina are protecting (that might not be the right word) Max drives me nuts.

 

[DisReno]

It's been a great show, and I have watched since the beginning.

However, I am so over Christina and her husband babying Max. Max was harrassing that girl, and they did nothing about it, but tell him how proud they were of him. They should have put a stop to it, and I'm sick of the way they treat him-like he can never be reprimanded because he has Aspergers. I don't blame those parents at all for wanting to pull their daughter from the school.

I don't know if someone will die...I think they are making us think that, and then no one will.

I actually like the new lawyer that Julia is dating and wanted her to stay with him.

I think Crosby is a waste-get a new job and support your family. He is a joke.

 

[mumto3girls]

This is one of my favorite shows ever and I am so sorry that it is ending. I do agree that we don't need to see Hank and Ruby and the ex-wife and Mark. I want to see more Julia and Joel. I also like Zeke and Camille and Adam and Christina, but I think we see a lot of them and they are in a good place--other than Zeke's latest health crisis.

 

[Carl]

Here's what I want to see.
1. Zeke make a full recovery and be able to take his wife to France. ( But from the previews, it looks like his heart is is horrible shape. Maybe he'll get a transplant, but there is too little of the season left for that.)
2. Max, despite his Aspergers, needs to be shown some tough love and given the truth in regards to his relation with girls and what is just not acceptable behavior. He is not stupid and I think they can ultimately get through to him.
3. Overall it will be best for the family if Julia gets back with her husband. She was extremely unwise to get involved with the other man, but her husband should not have completely abandoned the family and forgiven her. After all, his being so involved outside of the home is what drove her to seek attention elsewhere.
4. Crosby and the recording business should be put on hold until their financial situation is much more stable. They are still young and maybe music can be in the future, but the musicians they have had working so far or not the cream of the crop.

 

[Vernie822]

I watch, too!

I am a week behind (no worry if you spoil though). I am so sad that this is the last season.

I'm in agreeance with someone dying - I'm just not sure how they'll end it otherwise, unless it's some big happy ending with Amber having the baby, Crosby turning the studio around, Zeke being healthy, Joel and Julia back together. But I don't see that happening for some reason. I get so excited every time I see a glimmer of Joel/Julia getting back together. Ahhh.

 

[Sugardimples]

I think there will be a big happy ending with the birth of Amber's Baby EXCEPT I think that Hank will go back with his wife and Sarah will be sad.

 

[wishesuponastar]

My hubby and I Love this show and sad that it's ending. Yes Max needs to be taught about relationship boundaries with girls. Hoping Joel and Julia get back together and I also like Sarah with Mark but there's probably not enough time to see that happen.

Does anyone know of another show like this we can look out for even if it's on Netflix?

 

["Cinder" Ella's Mom]

I feel like Crosby might die and Zeke will get his heart. I read an interview with the guy who plays Joel and he said there will be no need for future specials/movies after the series ends because the finale will wrap everything up. And he said it will be sad...

 

[DisReno]

Wow...some ideas here I never thought of. I never thought of Cosby dying-Why does everyone think that?

I guess I'm in the minority when I want to see Julia have a new romance. LOL.

I like Hank with the other sister, so I hope Hank doesn't go back to his wife.

 

[cfriend416]

I'm so glad there are other Parenthood fans on the Dis!

I agree with others that Zeke's heart trouble is to grow us off from who is really going to die. The idea that it's Crosby and that Zeke will get his heart is an interesting one! I wouldn't be surprised if Crosby did die - perhaps his motorcycle accident was some foreshadowing??

I'm also annoyed that they're spending so much time on Ruby. I actually like Hank, but the whole arc with Ruby and his ex wife is pointless. There are only 4 episodes left! Focus on the family we love, not some dumb minor characters!

Also, does anyone else find it odd that Haddie has practically been written out of the show? I know she's at college and the actress isn't part of the main cast anymore, but they don't even mention her when she's not guest starring in an episode.

 

[ORMom2Four]

I think they are trying to throw the audience off with the heart issue. I wonder if they might have Crosby die in a motorcycle accident?

There is no chemistry between the actors that play Sarah and Hank. I cringe every time they come on screen, lol.

The show is doing a disservice to parents of children who are dealing with Aspergers. The characters are not addressing his abusive behavior toward the girl, only praising Max for having feelings. Whaaattt???

I hope Julia and Adam reconcile and tear up those divorce papers!

 

[JanaDee]

I hope Julia and Adam reconcile and tear up those divorce papers!

Julia and Joel. Adam is Julia's older brother.

 

[mnrose]

Julia and Joel. Adam is Julia's older brother.

And, that wouldn't be good. Although the actress who plays Sarah and the actor who plays her brother, Adam, are a real life couple.

 

[JanaDee]

And, that wouldn't be good. Although the actress who plays Sarah and the actor who plays her brother, Adam, are a real life couple.

Yes, they are and have been for four or five years (which I just found out, I thought it was much more recent. LOL).

Anyway, I think incest is probably a storyline Parenthood doesn't want to explore.
