Felicity Was Here

Felicity and Noel come face-to-face with each other and their lingering romantic feelings when they are partnered for their drawing class final. Julie meets a record label exec interested in signing her, but Sean gets overprotective. Ben freaks out about his American literature essay. What do Felicity's crazy dreams mean? Will Ruby get the Palm Pilot or the bracelet? Why don't we get more Eli? Let's discuss S2E9, "Portraits."

Worlds collide for Thanksgiving as the Porters surprise Felicity in NYC for the holiday. Elena and Noel host the "meet the parents" dinner for Felicity, the Porters, David, Professor Sherman...and Meghan. Meanwhile, Ben, Sean, and Julie work a charity event at Dean & Deluca, hosted by Maggie and her husband. Hijinks ensue! Make a batch of Sherman's Thanksgiving punch and rewatch S2E8 "Family Affairs."

Let's talk about sex, baby! Felicity rescues a stray dog that prevents her and David from getting lucky. Noel and Elena try to help Felicity "score." Maggie officially asks Ben to have an affair with her. Is Lucky a metaphor? Of course! Let's discuss S2E7, "Getting Lucky."

Before the coronavirus, there was mono! Felicity wonders why David still hasn't kissed her, but after mono spreads around Kelvin, she finally gets an invite to stay overnight. Noel decides to tell Ruby that Felicity is his ex, but the conversation doesn't go as planned. Ben finds out Maggie is hiding something bigger than her muffin recipe. Get ready to catch some feelings in S2E6, "The Love Bug."

Determined to exercise the dating muscle, Felicity gets set up on a blind date with her professor's son, David. Noel and Elena get addicted to a video game. Ben samples Maggie's "muffins." We share bad B-list dating stories and cringe at Professor Sherman's indecent proposal. Relive it all with us in S2E5, "Crash."

This week, we go deep underground where the mole people live when Felicity and Julie get stuck in a subway car together. Noel and Ruby go on their first date, and Ben meets a rude caterer with a cookie crisis at Dean & Deluca. We pore over all the symbolism and mysticism in the episode as we finally find out: were Felicity and Julie ever really friends? We also throw it back to Boy Meets World, Don't Look Under the Bed, Before Sunrise, and so many more nostalgic favorites and lament that we never got to hear Julie's song. Let's dig deep on S2E4, "The Depths."

Felicity makes a dramatic change in her post-Ben, post-Noel, single era. Yes, the haircut. But she also drops pre-med for art. Noel and Felicity are forced to confront their unresolved issues after ending up in the same drawing class. Ben and Sean look for a new roommate as Julie seeks permanent housing. Felicity's advisee, Ruby, needs help and lands in the middle of the drama. We discuss just how sexist the reaction to Felicity's haircut was, Noel's character development (or lack thereof) and rejoice in the return of Sally! Rewatch S2E3, "Ancient History," with us!

As Ben gets cold feet, Felicity tries to make herself into someone he could be with. Elena coaches Noel on picking up women, and Sean lets Julie throw a party at the loft. We obsess over Felicity's high-voltage look and lament the absence of Sally. Can Felicity keep things casual? Will Julie realize Sean's feelings for her? Where can we buy Felicity's red dress?! Join us for S2E2, "The List."

New year, new Felicity! Back for her sophomore year, and this time as an RA, Felicity must face the repercussions of choosing between Ben and Noel. Tensions run high among the group, setting the stage for a drama-filled sophomore year. We also discuss the "Felicity: Summer" book and if 1999 really was peak pop culture!
