"Couldn't See Through The Tinted Glass"

Promo photos are out for "The More You Ignore Me", but nothing of Alex (and yes, I double, double checked this set - don't be fooled if you see a lady in dark hair and glasses in some of them - that's not Alex, just the director of the episode).

My paranoid side thinks this is bad news - it feels like they're hiding something big, and that's NOT good news if they are.

"I Can See The Feathers Fly" (First Impressions - "The More You Ignore Me" - Season 7, Episode 6)

Buckle up, boys and girls, this is going to be the episode where the road's probably going to get really bumpy for Alex.

"You Made Me Promises, Promises"

OK, I found a reason to post without any new news after all.  Every once in a while I like to read some of my older posts (what blogger doesn't?), and I came back across this post from almost two months ago where I created my own Alex-centric Modern Family marathon.

“I've Got The Time And I'm Wasting It Slowly” (“The Verdict” Recap)

OK, maybe that lyric is a bit harsh considering that as a whole this was a very funny episode.

However...

"Just A Day, Just An Ordinary Day"

I'm not sure when I'll be posting a recap of tonight's episode, "The Verdict".  I have an early doctor's appointment tomorrow so I don't know if I really want to stay up until 12:30 in the morning to post it after the West Coast showing ends at 9:30.

It will all depend on how the story goes.  If not much happens, I'll post in the morning when I wake up.  But if something good or bad happens, I'll stay up and post at the usual time.

So just what am I expecting for tonight?

“'Cause What About, What About Angels?”

Just a few notes and thoughts for a Sunday pre-football:

“Miss You Like Crazy”

If this was a past season I'd say “look on the bright side – we got one of the (likely) only two Alex-less episodes out of the way early.”

But I still think this may not be a typical season, but that this instead may be a more typical occurrence for this season. In other words, I don't think there's only going to be only one more.

And, if you project out and do the math, if Alex were to miss every fourth episode, that's 24 episodes divided by 4 which gives us...

As Sanjay's mother would say, “It's SIX!”

Oh, well. At least the ducklings were cute.
