The halftime show was fine but generated a lot of controversy coz of Beyonce's performance. Her single Formation, released a day prior had its own set of supporters & critics.

not a fan of the song and i never will understand beyonce's fascination with the peculiar dressing style she has..

hmm.. i can understand why the filmmakers criticized it though

saw the half time video/..liked the Coldplay part..Beyonce vs Bruno mars was more of a dance off than a performance

a couple of questions..viewers are allowed to enter the ground?

why was the stadium more than half empty?

That controversy aside, Coldplay had earlier featured on Ellen show too -

Saw Suits yesterday - they are building up for Mike - Harvey disagreement. This might be good coz they will have 2 different approaches to beat her in her own game. If Anita Gibbs has a solid case, why is she doing things in such an underhand fashion? She possibly has a score to settle with Harvey or Jessica the way she is going after them every way possible. I can never tire of Mike turning things around, this time for Rachel. Jack Soloff is on his way up in terms of gaining good graces. He has worked with Mike & recognizes talent, not to mention the threat he received from him. He made his intentions clear by handing over his weakness to Jessica. If she could do so much for Mike, he might have chosen well. I liked that Donna & Rachel had a heart-to-heart. Last season, Harvey told Donna that he loved her & this episode he said he loved Scottie 😕 Who does he really love?

i didnt like this episode of suits as much as I have generally liked the others of this season..something was off..it had drama and tight situations alright but it was almost like they overdid..Mike for sure did imo..I get that Gibbs went after rachael and that got him worried but he was acting on the spur..so he comes to know that he is probably a major reason for Harvey-Scotie splitting too (if not the only reason)..Add that to Jessica-Malone..wonder if he will ever be shown to feel the impact of it..awhich is why maybe his high handedness annoyed me more just as his she is love of my life chant ..we get it..dont have to say it again and again..

apart from the circumstances being revealed to Mike wrt Harvey-Scottie, i dont see why they got her back (someone else could have imparted rachael the reality check..not that she got it)

and like you I am confused too as to whom does harvey love..the makers are making an unnecessary muddle of thing I believe..just trying to over complicate stuff to drag it out to next season..we have had absolutely no resolution to Harvey's ILU to Donna or her quitting ( in terms of theur emotions and current status) and now they make it seem like Harvey is taking therapy for Scottie (when he actually dreamed of Donna with Tanner)..the makers are going wrong here

The highlight of the episode for me was without a doubt, Louis's last scene with Sheila..👏

Rachael remains underdeveloped and unexplored..for someone who is supposed to be smart, she went with Gibbs (which in itself was foolish) and continues to panic , hyperventilate and whine (she had reason for the first and third but its so overdone that i have no patience for it),,,and then when Mike got her off the hook they acted like she had never panicked

and her behavior when donna comes...she is being shown as downright selfish..

and next epi we have pics of Donna and her sitting side by side on floor..so again she will panic/breakdown..i know she is an imp character..but they are giving her way too much screen time

lastly, Mike is getting too cocky..or he always was,,but is rubbing me wrongly

Sorry for the harsh criticism..it seems i really didn't like the epi..the makers have spoiled me ..so that i don't like mediocrity which is what this episode was

Thx for all the articles u posted for me. I was only aware of the Siachen issue.

interesting read on Siachen now with the debate on whether it needs to be dimilitarized

one of the US (I think) experts had commented that India-Pakistan fighting for Siachen is like two bald men fighting for a comb..they just wont get the importance..

Congrats, an IF-Sizzlers now 👏

Deadpool was released this weekend & is poised to be a high grosser. Seems like it has everything for everyone. Saw this preview of The Night Manager, which seemed interesting (mini-series)

Tom Hiddlestone vs Hugh Laurine..wow

i loved one as Loki and other as House...seems good

Didnt know Deadpool was so famous...also didnt think Ryan Renlds was a good choice..seems like he is proving things wrong

@oscar presenters: they are def going for diversity..its obvious

what does the buzz say..Is this going to be Dicprio's year?

loved the only show not owned by Shonda quip..she is Ekta of American TV

Aziz Ansari's show on Netflix has been renewed for s2 & moi has yet to watch the first one!

i havent either as usual

Will u be watching Grammy's?

naah..not into watching grammy yet..you?

Edit - Kid saw Deadpool & he liked it.

doesnt it have an age limit there?

Awww...http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/11/travel/india-sweden-love-story-cycle/index.html

major aww...man they were destined to be together...totally sounds like a movie story

so may be reel does get its inspiration from real

Superbowl - Not sure how the organizers do it but the halftime always has a musical production, so it is possible they either let the viewers in or bring in people from outside specifically for this purpose 😕.

I don't know if the stadium was half empty considering the tics were exorbitantly high but it was possible that spectators stepped away during half time to concession stands, restrooms etc. At the end of show, the stadium had a message "Believe in Love", so I guess that part was fully seated.

Looking at the pics before, I had thought that Scottie was being brought in to represent PSL as Jessica wanted. But this was something else 😕.

Yup, Louis did protect Sheila without hurting Harvey-Mike's cause. If Sheila had stayed and appeared in court, Harvey would have managed to cast aspersion on her proficiency and this way, she is out of the picture completely and not available to testify, same outcome either way.

Grammy's - At one time, I used to watch the event but not anymore.

Hmm..makes sense that people had gone out for refreshments..just that the people around the stage in centre..I didn't see any security..doesn't it become risky

Suits - I had a disconnect with this episode myself and had pinned it to other reasons. I agree, Rachel leaving with AG made no sense just coz she flashed a legal paper that their conversation wouldn't be allowed in court. She knows what Mike's stand is on this but is she hedging her bets and leaving a door open? Mike getting upset with Harvey coz Rachel willingly went with AG was not fair. I guess that's why they had Donna comment that Mike doesn't make the right decisions when he is upset.

F-16 sale - I only came to know about it by reading the article in TOI. Had no idea otherwise.

Grammy's - At one time, I used to watch the event but not anymore.

Deadpool - It is rated "R" here which means that kids under 17 have to be accompanied by an adult. A friend's parent accompanied them. Movie seems to have been a high grosser even though RR also appeared as Green Lantern hero before.

Edit - don't know if I posted this for you before on Suits

http://www.spoilersguide.com/suits/season-5-episode-15-tick-tock-photos/

e16 synopsis states as the judgment draws closer, it threatens to shatter the lives of people closest to Mike and faced with an uncertain outcome, he makes one final play 😉

@suits: what other reasons had u pinned it to?

I was distracted due to personal reasons and didn't enjoy this episode as much as the others.

Donnas explanation to Mike not making right decisions when updmset..doesn't that go contrary to what we have seen so far..when backed into a corner..he sort of comes out wih a solution..IMO that statement was a shitty attempt to justify the poor drama they tried to create..

but Mike himself or his situation not been placed in a dire situation. It has been a client. Here the stakes are high and he himself is under the gun. What he stands to lose is way more than what he had before.

both Rachael and Mike didn't end up looking good in this epi.. As much as I believe Harvey is at fault too .I felt bad for him

Harvey, with his experience, is maintaining his calm at least on the outside.

@epi 16 spoiler..I hope they make it realistic..Mike pulling a rabbit out of hat at last moment is becoming stale faster than I thought..

I am surprised Gibbsis going to go after Donna first in the trial

@make in India: sounds like a really good initiave by the govt..one of the few postives right now given how the country is embroiled in one controversy after other

The latest one with JNU is leaving a very bad taste in my mouth with the antinational flavor

That JNU incident is sad...

@deadpool: hoping to catch it now that the reviews are good

Seems to have done well in India too...

Have to catch Daredevil last few epi before I start the new one

Edit: saw the pics..so Mike will fight his own case and not Harvey

Mike and Harvey feed off of each other, so Harvey will play a very important part. Just like Harvey said when he got Mike released that they would have to go on offensive and in the next episode, Mike's strategy was the same for subpoenas. Pics do not give us a complete picture and maybe Harvey will fight the case. Did you recognize the crying woman? Was she in an episode before?

Don't think I like it..Harvey might not have faught a criminal case in ages but Mike never has..

I think I should stop over thinking coz Mike is annoying me..😆

Haha...

Yeah but that has been in the past too..I mean the situation where he is about to lose everything..I think he did cross the line

It's getting worse..and the worst part of this..people are forgetting the main issue at hand..that a handful of students did raise antinational slogans which needs to be condemned

Going for it tonight

Boys over flower is available in Netflix 😃 Would u recommend it? Any other ones?

Boys over flowers only if u want to go for fluff..there isnt much depth to it but i did like one of the 4 main boys in the show ( not either of 2 main lead guys)

there was another show i had liked..something sun..lemme remember the name

Have come across behavior like Rachel's in real life, so can understand why she behaves the way she does. It is not necessarily right but we all happen to be a product of our upbringing, experiences & environment, to name a few factors 😉.

i do get that there are people like her..but her behaviour in season 1 was totally different from the ones later...she was shown as smart professional not a wimpy girl.. her actively going after a married man was a big sore point '

I think the writers in general ( not for Suits specifically) have a hard time writing good layered female characters in general..and of the show has more than one important female characters..more often than not, they mess up

My thoughts on Suits episode are posted in the Suits forum till u watch it.

Posted my views too..u might not agree 😆

How was Deadpool? Liked it? Going to watch Neerja?

I see nothing wrong in hoisting national flag in govt. universities. Here govt. buildings, including even elementary schools (K thru 5th grade), have national flags.
