Grapes Of Wrath was another fantastic episode of Brothers & Sisters, and I definitely enjoyed Brothers & Sisters way more than I enjoyed Desperate Housewives this past Sunday. In fact to completely honest, I hardly paid any attention Desperate Housewives this week, but that's not the case with this Sunday's episode of Brothers & Sisters. With the exception of the commercial breaks during Brothers & Sister, my eyes were glued to the screen the whole time.
Grapes Of Wrath was such a great episode with so many wonderful things about it. The writers did an absolutely amazing job of blending both the drama and the comedy together in this episode. The scene with drunk/high Kitty was absolutely hilarious! I absolutely loved it. Calista Flockhart played the whole drunk/high thing to perfection. I also loved the scene with Kevin and Kitty when Kitty woke up the next morning with a hangover. Matthew Rhys did an excellent job in that scene.
As for the whole food fight between Nora and Holly, that was absolutely amazing. That was definitely the best scene in the entire episode. I loved how the writers wrote that scene with a perfect blend of drama and comedy. I also love that the writers haven't made the character Holly some one dimensional mistress. Holly is much more complex than that. I think that both the writers and Patricia Wettig have both done such a wonderful job of making the character Holly Harper very human. Sally Field and Patricia Wettig both did a great job in that scene.
I also really enjoyed Rachel Griffiths' performance as Sarah in this episode. The end with Julia going into labor was very sad, but the scene was very well done. Sarah Jane Morris did an outstanding job in that scene. All in all, Grapes Of Wrath was another great episode of Brothers & Sisters, and I can't wait for this Sunday's episode. Based on the previews, it looks like the episode is going to be a real tearjerker, but a very good episode as well.
