I feel hugely let down. I kept waiting for something to happen when really it was just an extension of the last episode.
That was SO out of line for him to say. Low blow. I'm usually in Jack's corner but that was something I'm sure she'll never forget him saying.I found this episode pretty boring. I actually much prefer the present day scenes to the ones in the past. And there was way too much hype over this one, nothing really happened except they had a fight & decided to take a break. I thought what he said to her in the fight was awful...." A 40 year old singing cover tunes is ridiculous". So mean!!! I just would have headed back out on tour if I was her.
I saw Mandy Moore saying this episode was something that had never been seen on TV before. Totally don't get that comment?? What do u think she was referring to?
I will give the episode that. I actually flinched a couple of times. I've lived that scene. Stuff bottled up too long and things said that can never be taken back. Painful to watch.Maybe the realism of the one take fight scene? It was pretty good.
I like that they're showing Jack's faults, it makes him more human. Good people have flaws. I agree it was a very honest episode.I agree that she was being ungrateful not to appreciate all Jack did for their family, and that she could have stood up for herself and her dreams at any point, but I don't think Jack was husband of the year in this episode either, to show up drunk to her show and punch the other guy, then blame Rebecca for his drinking and then basically call her career a joke.
I thought it was a very honest episode about how people in a marriage sometimes communicate very badly, and blame each other for unfulfilled dreams instead of seeing how the marriage and the kids *are* a dream come true for many people. So I thought it was good in that way, but a sad and depressing show for the season finale
