anyone watch army wives last week?

i missed it and saw some comments about it on TNN.....no one wants to tell me what happened or talk about it............can anyone fill me in?

Yep, me too.

Is it the last episode you want to know about, the one with the hostage taking?

Ok so the female officer's solider ( who seems to be suffering from PTSD) took her husband and Claudia-Joy (I cringe whenever they say her name!!) hostage over something the wife did over in Iraq, basically chose to keep their position secret and it meant some Iraqi civilians that helped them died
In the end the guy was taken out by the red-head (surrogate)'s husband.
And still no news on the other woman's husband who is either lost or dead, they were supporting her through it but she was really angry and told all the visitors to get out, and won't talk to her son (understandably, since he hits her).
And Roxie decided to let her new hubby adopt her kids.

Did I miss anything?

Oh we also found out the red head husband is in the delta force and his wife figured out that he may be sent in to try to resuce the missing soliders who went down in the black hawk...but he can't confirm anything and won't even be able to tell her when/if he goes.

ooohhhh thanks!!! i misse4d half of it as DH started SULKING at the dum girly program lol


lol claudia joy   that name cracks me up

was so funny in eposode 2 when they were talking about naming their girly bits HHHAAAAHAHAHAHA
my dh saw that and cracked up then said " do girls really do that??"

the psychs wife told the story of why the other guy was upset with her....apparently he stayed with a family when he was injured and went back to help them with his squad but found that they had been attacked and the young girl of the family was being raped....their orders were to remain under cover and therefore they couldnt go in and help the family....she was then killed

enough i think to test anyones mental health!!! watching something like that happen, wanting to stop it but for your teams safety not being able to

in army terms the leader did the right thing...but morally?????

I know, such a hard question!


The guy who got shot was the soldier who was taking them hostage, not any of the "wives".

Does anyone else think that the drama in this is just way too OTT? I watched it and cringed through the whole thing. Seriously, it is nowhere near real life, even for American soldiers.

Nah, I'm loving it. 

If it wasn't dramatic I probably wouldn't bother watching it, I turn on the tv to enjoy a bit of fiction.

I have heaps of friends and family who are nurses and their jobs/lives are nothing like those portrayed in SS and I don't know of any hospital in NZ that has a bar across the road but that doesn't put me off watching SS either.

Well I am living on camp and it is nothing like that here (well I have only been here for a week). It is friendly here but that is about it at the moment.

I do however love the show.
