I think both kids were really funny to watch, though I'd loved to see more action from little Kelly. Also Adalind's shock about the news was great and the situations it put her and Nick in was great comedy, wouldn't wanna have missed that.

I also would have preferred if they incorporated Bree's (Rosalee) pregnancy into the show instead of sending her away to assist her sick aunt. Maybe it was too soon. They weren't married yet and I would not have chosen triplets. I do realize it would have complicated things if they had to drag around a toddler during that whole BC debacle.

It was way too soon. Rosalee was originally a five-episode character. Bree Turner was already pregnant by the time the series went into production, and by the time her first episodes were shot and the decision was made to make her a regular she had started to become very pregnant, which was why Rosalee was constantly wearing sweaters or other overclothing. Instead of a developing relationship, Monroe and Rosalee would have had to literally fall into bed within an episode or two of their first meeting, and rather carelessly at that.

I think it was a good choice to send Rosalie to her aunt, it was funny to see Monroe mess up the recipe for the medication of that Mausherz-guy. I think they should have mentioned though how he dealt with his clock repairs...did he work at the spice shop and the clock shop or is the clock shop an online business and he could do some repairs in the spice shop?

I did get the impression he worked as a watchmaker which is a funny name here in the USA for a watch repair guy. Horologist is the more proper term but hardly anyone uses it. Most refer to watchmaker even if they only repair watches instead of making them. We have also seen Monroe do house calls on some repairs. He seems to be self employed as a watchmaker working out of his home instead of a repair shop. I myself am a pocket watch collector and self taught of a somewhat amateur repair guy. I have replaced some springs and crystals and some balance wheels with some success. I probably have over 400 pocket watched in my collection. 1/3 are the hunter types. Hunter types are the pocket watches with a cover on the face and have very delicate crystals (glass face) that are hard to find/replace. The other 2/3 are the open face ones, no cover, and have much more durable and thicker crystals which are 5 or 6 times thicker than the hunter types. I also have a small collection of self winding wrist watches more of the chronograph types. I also change out movements out of cases with non running movements and replace them with good ones. Many people scrap the cases for the silver and gold contents which create many bare movements sold at flea markets cheap. Problem is with the so many sizes and subtle variations of the movements, it is hard to find the right one for the right case. One interesting item I have is a bracelet with a clamp to hold a small pocket size Zero (0) open face pocket watch which was more commonly worn by the ladies on a long chain draping their necks in the late 1800's to the early 1900's. Don't quote me on the dates, they might have occurred even earlier. I been told this was the forerunner to the creation of the wrist watch. Another is a movement with the winder is actually a small chain you pull on to wind it up. Another is a pocket watch with a 3rd large hand that tracks the day of the month. One known fake types of pocket watches are what they call "Sidewinders" which I think are just hunter types movements inserted into open faced cases. They are easy to identify. A hunter type has the winder stem at the 3 O'clock position. The open face ones have the winder at the 12 O'clock position. If you see an open face pocket watch with the winder at the 3 O'clock position? It is most likely a hunter type movements inserted into an open face casing. Hence the name, Sidewinder.

That's interesting, sounds like clocks are really complicated. I remember that somebody in my family had a cuckoo clock and as a kid I wanted to pull those strings with the pine cones on it and thought that would make the cuckoo come out. Good someone moved the hand until the cuckoo came out.

Most of the worst plot turns in the series were the result of arcs having to be revised or thrown out altogether because of real life events: Viktor being replaced by Kenneth, nick's mom being killed, Adalind's second pregnancy.

All true, but much of that I can excuse due to unexpected happenings with the actors themselves. The writers already goofed with the character of Diana. They should have learned from their mistake and left the pregnancy out of it.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
