DROP DEAD DIVA

Not to be morbid, but I wonder how they'll keep Grayson's body around so it's there for him to return to.

No idea!!   

So I guess the actor who plays Gracin is not going to be on for the ending of the show.  I am bummed about that.  I kinda hate what they did.  Loved the episode though.

It was great to see Fred back again especially since Ben Feldman got such a weird write-off on "Mad Men."

I don't think that guy is going to turn out to be Grayson. Right now, it seems like he is, but I don't think so. I never saw it, but some fans are thinking it will be like "The Ghost Whisperer" where everyone else sees the other guy but Jane will see Grayson.

I hope you are right.  Though I hate that they killed off the hubby at Ghost Whisperer too    

Well, who could that guy be saying he is Grayson then ???

I haven't figured that part out yet. I'm not saying he's definitely not Grayson, I just don't think he is.

Maybe it really is him and it's about Deb/Jane being able to see who he is and fall in love with him even though he's in a different body. Kind of like how Grayson had to fall in love with Jane. Of course, the spoilers indicate that she is dating him and it's Owen and Kim who don't like him.

Looks like he is Grayson. She didn't see him as Grayson like on Ghost Whisperer. Bummer.  Not digging this storyline to be honest.  I suppose they will make it right some how.  

It was fun seeing Kitty from GLEE in that role.  Still playing bitches I see  

So I guess Stacy will not get her big wedding..... 

They have a lot to do in the next two episodes. The lawyer in Kim's case is going to be in the next two episodes so I think he may end up being involved with her in some way. I'm also wondering about whether or not Stacy will have her twins and/or marry Owen.

I didn't think that guy was Grayson at first, but then I started thinking there was no really good way that he could have known all that stuff without being him. Also, the actor tweeted that if the show gets picked up again (I think they may be trying to shop it to another network, but it's a longshot) he'll definitely be playing Grayson. Not sure what that means for Jackson Hurst. In an interview, he said the fans will be very happy about the finale.

I'm still thinking everyone gets a happy ending.

I think everyone will get a happy ending too.  But I am not happy about Jackson not being Grayson anymore.  And IF the show gets picked up by another network and Jackson doesn't get to be Grayson I will be one pissed off fan!  If it gets picked up I hope it goes the Ghost Whisperer route and at least Jane see Jackson's face as Grayson while the others see the new face.  I so wish they had not done this.

Actually, Jackson (who got married a few days ago, so congrats to him and his bride!) said the fans will be very satisfied by the finale so I'm thinking he figures into it in some way. I'm not sure if it's going to work to just have it be Jane can see him but everyone else sees Ian.

Well, it worked on Ghost Whisperer  

I guess we will see.  How many more episodes are left?

Just two more.

It's funny but some fans are saying they think Jane has much more chemistry with the new Grayson than she ever did with the old one.

Completely disagree with that one!

A young fan who is a FACEBOOK friend of mine is a huge Jane/Grayson shipper who has been waiting for this for a long time. Her attitude is that it's really about the idea that soulmates will find each other even if they're in completely different bodies than they were when they first met.

I'm expecting the next episode to look like everything is going to end in disaster. The preview shows Jane telling Owen that her private life is none of his business and then later telling Owen and Kim that she quits and then walking away.

.

I agree with your Facebook friend that that is no doubt the reason behind this storyline.  I get that and like the idea of it, just after all these years of enjoying the actor and actress chemistry I am disappointed that the end will not be the same for me as I had hoped it would be.  No idea how it all will end up.

Oh don't get me wrong, she is like the biggest fan of Jackson Hurst, she just thinks this really works in terms of what the show is supposed to be about. And really, until the credits roll on the final episode, we don't know what's going to happen.

Loved the episode last night!  Can't believe there is only one left.  If you find spoilers Badger please post them!

Last night I didn't feel sure I could trust Ian.  Can't put my finger on it.  Hope I am wrong and all is fine and ends with a perfect happily ever after!!   

God,  I am soooooo gonna miss this show........    Love it so much.  Love Brooke Elliott.  I pray she finds another wonderful series.  I pray even harder this show gets picked up somewhere else.

The one big spoiler I saw was that Teri comes back and realizes that she knew Ian in high school and he's the guy who ruined her chances at having a singing career.

Well, it is all over.......So freaking sad about that.  I will miss this show very, very much.  So glad I got to experience the joy this show brought me for the last several years.  Adore Brooke Elliott and I hope she gets another wonderful show soon.

While I thought the episode was delightful and a wonderful ending, it still was not the finale I have dreamed of all these several years.  I would have preferred the original Grayson and a beautiful wedding for the final scene.  But I understand why they did it this way and it was lovely and well done and satisfying.  I hope at some point Lifetime shows reruns during the daytime or something so I can see them all again. 

Thank You everyone involved with this unique and adorable and charming and wonderful show!  Thanks for bringing me the warm fuzzies and a laugh and a smile and some tears on so many Sunday nights.

Maybe they can do a movie later that has Ian and Jane's wedding and we can find out what happened to the other characters too.

One thing I wondered about is why Jackson Hurst was written out of the show. Was he fired for cause , did he quit, etc.? According to Josh Berman, he discussed what was going to happen to Grayson with him and he was fine with it.

I would have liked to have seen Deb's mom.

I wonder that too.  If by some chance the show comes back on another network (doubt it though) Jackson won't be able to be back with the show.  Just not happy with the decision to write out Jackson.  It wasn't necessary as there were only a handful of shows left so I can't imagine if there were issues that the actor and PTB couldn't work it out for a handful of shows.  I hope it was just for storyline purposes, even though I wish they hadn't done that either.

I think it should have been a two hour finale and more people could have been shown - like Deb's mom.

Like I said, it was satisfying enough. Just not what I had hoped for.

Jackson wasn't fired and he didn't quit:

I know a lot of people didn't like what they did with Grayson but really it made sense in that it was all about finding your soulmate and knowing who he or she is, even if they're in different bodies.

I'll miss this show.

This is so cool!  I was reading about Brooke and was so surprised to see this! When fandoms collide!!
