A good episode about coming age...at first I thought some of the scenes between Amber and Sarah were overdone, as they really induced uncomfortable cringes....but then after I re-watched the episode, I realized that that's how things really feel when you're at that age, and I expressed my frustration the same way. It was heartfelt and real, even if it was overdramatic.
A great example is at the end, when Amber finally tells Sarah that she isn't going to go to college and the whole good student thing was just living her life to do what she thought Sarah wanted. (scene is at http://vimeo.com/22052846 ).
Also, so glad to hear that they used another Junip song ("Loops") during that scene..they've played them a lot this season, and something about the band's soothing sound is perfect for really emotional scenes like that.
I am absolutely loving the Julia and Joel story line right now! I have cried every episode since she announced that her chance of having kids is slim to none. I am so sad for her! They are definetely my favorite family on the show. I would DIE if this show got cancelled! SAVE PARENTHOOD! KEEP IT AROUND!
