Thank you! Yes, I completely agree with your thoughts on the pilot, and also hope that the show can follow it up with equally good episodes.

Great episode recap. The pilot did have its moments of cheese, or as some would say, heart, but they work. I never felt like I needed an insulin injection thru the entire pilot.

I’m looking forward to next week to see if they can follow thru from the great opening.

I’m so glad that you enjoyed the recap! Yeah, poor Ryan and his dreadful timing. Sigh. I have fallen in love with the show too, which is SO rare after just a pilot. SO RARE. I agree about the soul part – LUX does the cheese but it works because it’s handled in a really honest way.

I’ve read plenty of recaps and reviews but yours was so funny that I had to get to the end!
Your description of Ryan’s attitudes were hilarious! I’m still laughing at same remarks
And it was so long that if it hadn’t been good I wouldn’t have finished.

I loved the show. I can’t stop rewatching some parts that were absolutely funny or ADORABLE (yes!).
I agree entirely with your description of Shiri. I felt like clapping her in some scenes. She’s a master expressing emotions.
And you know what I found about this show that makes it so special?
It’s cheesy sometimes (and I HATE cheesy things but didn’t have a problem with this one), it’s dramatic, it’s very funny, it’s intelligent, it’s touching. It has soul.

I hate romantic movies and emotional shows…but when LU finished, with the party and the lion, and daddy and mommy.. I realised I had been smiling like an idiot all the time. I had been glued to the screen without noticing. And this is one in a million for me

Thanks so much! That means a lot from you, as I adore your recaps. So yeah, I am glad that I’m not alone on the oohing and aawwing. The show does demand it, you’re right.

Dude, this recap was AWESOME! I didn’t even realize how many little conversational bits I missed just by trying to absorb it all. Really great stuff. And I TOTALLY feel you on not being able to resist “awwww” and “adorable”, but don’t feel bad–this show totally demands it.
