The girl being tutored - she looked really familiar. What else has she been on?

I think I remember the girl from Home Improvement.

I didn't care for this episode.

It seemed like it was just an ep to give characters who haven't had a story yet something to do.

They finnaly gave Marylin a story but it wasn't that good. She basically turned that kid in to feel better about herself.

I don't know what to thing of the Flynn/girls mother story.

The roundtable with the teachers was the only funny part. Harvey about to go into details about his sex life was funny and his comment about haveing sex and winding up with a black family was hilarious. Woods getting flustered during the sex talk was good to.

Way to little Jeri Ryan in this ep also.

You are right. Her name is Courtney Peldon. However, I actually remembered her from a episode of That 70s Show. I guess it should not come as a shock that the producer would use a 21 year old to play a 17 year old high school student.

Who's Wilks?

But, I agree with the majority of what MrX said. I think it's telling that no one rushed out to start a Boston Public thread...

As far as i'm concerned, once I saw Brooke "I have hyperactive, freakish tear ducts" Harper, it was all downhill from there...

[edit to add the "e" in Brook...bad spellchecker, bad.]

I think that's the new teachers name. It was off the top of my head so I could be wrong.

Seriously - definitely one of the worst characters ever. Can they write her out like Happy Days did with Chuck? I remember Season 1 when we were led to believe that Steven didn't have any children. Let's go back to that premise.

I don't have a problem with most of the new characters they bring in. Brooke is just so damn annoying.

I was the only one here who seemed to hate the Harry Senate character from the beginning. By the time he left, almost everyone hated him.

[Triumph the Wonder Dog]"That's a nice episode...to poop on!"[/Truimph the Wonder Dog]

I concur w/ everyone that last night's episode was the biggest waste of time for us, the viewers. When I noticed that a thread was not started last night or this morning, I realized why, but since it was openned - we might as well vent.

The teacher's lounge virgin discussion was the ONLY funny part.

'Brooke Harper' is getting more annoying every time she is one the show (which sucks because she could be really cute if she wasn't so annoying). [Brooke whining]"Daddy, do you know how hard it is to be the principal's daughter - none of the boy's will even talk to me...yada, yada, yada"[/Brooke whining] I just want her to shut the hell up.

I think I was just in shock that she was in an episode where she wasn't threatened with physical violence from one of her students.

Overall a weak episode. Wonder why they aren't trying to air better episodes as they may snare Joe viewers too...
