You also need to know that Hot Neighbor Wade has decided he needs to get over Zoe, and one of the reasons given are her “stupid shorts.” I would like to tell HNW that he would have a lot more sympathy to build on if he hadn’t been a total jerkwad for like SIX WEEKS. You should also know that I’m worried that Lavon is never going to have a viable girlfriend option on this show despite the fact that a) he’s the mayor, b) he’s a football star, c) he’s loaded, d) he has an endless supply of pastel pants and flattering hats, e) he cooks, f) he owns a giant fantastic house, and g) HAVE YOU SEEN HIM? You ALSO need to know that Justin Hartley (who NEEDS to come back, given that you don’t just plonk him into a show and set up all kinds of interesting conflict with him and then disappear him) is apparently getting a divorce in real life, which is sad because I loved him and Theresa and also I will arm wrestle you for him. Don’t underestimate my freakish arm strength.

I must say, this episode pissed me off. The minister shouldn’t have made George run that stupid race in the first place and Lemon’s “I have enough love for the both of us” crap was annoying. So of COURSE she has to almost die for George to want her back. Stupid. Were there even any formal shorts in this episode???
Also, WHY IS THERE NO MAKING OUT??? I mean, really. Where is this cute banter: (also, more formal shorts!!!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuHpGV3bXBA You’re welcome Fug Nation.
This is the only episode of HoD I’ve ever seen in full, but the “stupid shorts” line made me burst out laughing, thanks to these recaps! Anyone else think Levon and Tansy would make a good pairing? They had cute chemistry going on.
Also, yes, re: Lavon and Tansy. I just want Lavon to be happy.
Ah, totally!
This episode was beyond frustrating! I also kind of hated Zoe that week. Stop being so selfish and pushy! geez.
I know. I got really mad at the fact that George basically wasn’t allowed to break up with Lemon. HE’S THE INJURED PARTY. IF YOU HAD SO MUCH LOVE, LEMON, MAYBE YOU WOULD NOT HAVE CHEATED.
Yeah, Tansy is actually responsible now and Lavon is, well… Lavon.
I don’t even watch this show, and I’m angry! The minister is not letting the guy cancel the wedding after his fiancee cheated? Um, no. Just no.
And thank you for my Tim Matheson fix.
INDEED!!
also, I think this was episode 20….
err- excuse me, LAVON.
I was really disappointed in Lavon’s attitude towards Zoe throughout the episode he seemed kind of judgmental for someone who had just broken up an engagement. And than he seemed really unfair to her regarding the whole Wade thing. It kind of pissed me off that he could be compassionate towards everyone else’s heartache and he could forgive Wade blowing off Tansy but he couldn’t forgive Zoe blowing off Wade. Especially since Zoe has gone out of her way to be helpful and supportive to Lavon.
Yeah…good points all around. This definitely plays into the idea that they think Zoe is better than the rest of them. Wade gets forgiven because he doesn’t know any better, but Zoe is shut out because she should know better. Also I really don’t think Zoe did all that much wrong…she didn’t know Wade’s intentions and I’m not sure what she was supposed to do once she found out. Meanwhile Wade purposefully cast aside someone he knew liked him.
THANK YOU!!!!! I was so mad at Lavon, Wade knows Tansy is in love with him, and he was married to her so everything between them is already 1000x more super charged, but he can come into the get over it party even though his ex is there and upset, but Zoe gets no love even though all she did was follow her heart and maintain the George crush that everyone knows she’s had all along!??!?!?! How is it her fault that Wade is in love with her? And how are we supposed to feel so sorry for Wade when he’s a fourth grader who can’t ask her out for real??
I find that I’m WAYYYYYYYYYYY too emotionally invested in this show, it’s pretty hilarious!
Yeah, I think the problem with Lavon’s bad attitude toward Zoe was just poor writing, unfortunately. My thinking is that they want her to feel alienated so that they can have a cliffhanger season ender with her deciding to leave Bluebell for good. So George goes back to Lemon, Lavon is mad at her, HNW has decided that he actually doesn’t like her, and even Rose gets hurt and her mom probably won’t let her see Zoe anymore. Everything’s going wrong so that Zoe will decide to give it all up and leave…so you’ll HAVE to tune in next season! Which, let’s face it, I was going to anyway because this show is just so darn cute I can’t not watch.
OTTER!!
Cute people in mostly cute clothes, but Lemon really needs to tone down the make-up and accessories. I get stressed out just looking at her. It takes a lot of work to get that buttoned-down. As for the storyline, I though the minister was ay off base focusing on George instead of Lemon (not like it was a case of wedding jitters). Agree with others – less crushing and more kissing.
I love Zoe’s PJ’s in the first shot. In my pretend life, I have tons of adorable sleepware, in real life I look at them in the store and go “that much for bed clothes, guess I’ll stick to old t-shirts and shorts!”
What was up with the minister not letting them not get married?!?!? I mean George has a very legitimate reason for not wanting to marry her and should not be forced to do so agents his will. though I guess he could just not show up to the wedding. Now I want that to happen. I want Lemon to get left at the alter. I have never want that to even fictionally happen before.
I pretty much hated this episode. And when will Zoe and Wade finally get together? Jeez.
This show is starting to grate. THANK YOU for pointing out that Lavon is the best catch on the Eastern Seaboard yet the show treats him like he’s Bluebell’s Liz Lemon.
Also: Zoe is supposed to be a super smart and rational doctor – she acted like a complete idiot this week and was totally insensitive to HNW. However, he dress is adorable.
Viva good cheese!
SO TRUE. To me, I wonder every ep which Zoe isn’t dishing after Lavon!! SERIOUSLY. He’s hot, rich and nice.
The minister was forcing them to get married and Lavon acted like an a-hole because the writers did a particularly poor job of making the characters real people while pushing their plot.
….this is a TV show.
Timmmm rhymes with Mmmmmmm. Thank you for understanding that Tim Matheson is obligatory in a Hart of Dixie post! Feel free to put him in all posts…
Totally agree that this episode grated – I totally buy George climbing up to save Lemon, but the notion that her passive-aggressive craziness would make him realise he still loves her is NUTS. I don’t buy their relationship at all. As for HNW – he really does act like he’s entitled to have Zoe like him back and forgive him all his crap just because. Disappointing – I really liked the ep the week before.
I second that —- OTTER!!!!
I third this. And hereby volunteer to provide the TV-mandated snogging should that snogging be with Tim Matheson.
OTTER SNOGFEST 2012
(I would totally go to that)
I guess its a testament to this shows unexplainable charms that I find myself having a frustration with the characters because they manage to make me care about them and I really want them to make decisions that make them happy. For all of the shows weaknesses it really does have a charm that makes me constantly watch and to continue to like it even when it frustrates me.
Definitely. I think this pretty much sums it up. Super charming, even when it’s really frustrating.
I wanted to rip that hat off Lemon’s head – it was ridiculous! And it stayed on even when she was about to fall off the roof! UGH!
The cute is starting to wear off this show. I turned it off after I realized where the George-Lemon story line was going. Lemon is a joyless shrew, and the idea that George would ever love her to begin with, let alone take her back after so much emotional manipulation was absurd–even for this kind of silly TV dramedy.
I have no interest in seeing Zoe hook up with the manchild that is HNW (the fact that I am over the whole you-like-her-therefore-be-mean routine means I have officially become my mom).
I am now rooting for Zoe to realize she loves Lavon and take him back to NY with her so he can start his own clothing line. And once there, Justin Hartley can visit them. Preferably while shirtless.
I should add that I will continue to read the fugcaps, and they continue to be awesome.
See? Totally my train of thought as well re Zoe and Lavon. You are awesome.
And why does Lemon have no redeeming qualities? She is either an ice queen with no soul, or she’s a puddle of nothingness. Nothing in between bitch and pathetic.
Thanks for the Tim Matheson! I consider it my birthday present today, Jessica. You are so thoughtful!
Happy birthday, darling!
This episode was horrible, hated it! Except that I must have Zoe’s outfit in slide 4!
