Please direct all general and specific discussion of the 12/30/08 episode "Two Ministers" to this thread.

Enjoy!

OMG that was such an amazingly awesome episode. Beth had a great voice, the transgendered minster was great, Taylor's baby was emotional and I can't believe they left us with such a huge cliffhanger: Eli with a bloody nose. Now we might have to wait till summer for the final five I can't believe it.

Another fantastic episode!!!!! Eli with a bloody nose!!! The black truth is dangerous!!!!! So this is it? The show is over? They aren't gonna show the last 4 episodes. They can't end it like that!!!!! That is not fair!!!! I want to know what will happen to Eli!!!!

No I do't think It's over I just heard from USAtoday.com Eli prepares for his brother's wedding as Eli Stone (ABC, 10 ET/PT) prepares to exit the schedule - at least until summer, and possibly for good. Eli wasn't a perfect series, but it was different and sometimes wonderful. A longer run would have been wonderful as well, but it's not to be. UNTIL SUMMER does that mean they'll show the remaining episodes over the summer. So I think they are goinng to either show them before or over the summer. There is still Sonoma, Mortal Combat, Tailspin, and Flight Path. I even heard there was going to be a powerful scene between Eli and his father. So don't give up. We got to petition, write to ABC. NEVER GIVE UP HOPE.

Fabulous episode. Eli Stone, along with House and The Mentalist, is my favorite show and I cannot believe they're thinking of cancelling this unique show and its excellent characters. Beth had a gorgeous voice (if indeed it was hers). But aside from the drama of the baby and the minister, what I loved about the episode was that wonderful relationship, the very deep bond between Eli and Nate. I sort of knew that *something* was going to happen when he took the step toward going into the dark side of his accupuncture. But OMG, that ending had my heart in my throat! How do others feel the next episodes will go? (I was actually quite disgusted with Nate - as much as I adore the guy - for his treatment of Eli in the end but I loved his frantic worry and tenderness with Eli at the end.)

Great episode, but really sad to think this might be it, and definitely is it for a while. As for Beth's voice, that is actually Laura Benanti singing. Not only is this something Eli Stone always seems to do (casting people who do their own singing for roles, like Victor Garber, Loretta Devine, Katie Holmes, etc.), but she is also a famous Broadway actress. She won a Tony award for Best Featured Actress for playing the title role in Gypsy in mid-2008. Back in October it was announced that she would be taking off a week or so to fly out to LA and do Eli Stone. So I'm just glad we got some resolution on that story line.

That was the most amazing cliffhanger ever. But now we have a half-year hiatus to look forward to? *sigh* well, im used to that...

from what i understood as well this was last episode and that would be one of the worst endings i've ever seen. so is there anybody out there who knows for sure wheter or not they are going to wrap the story up and give us some more episodes?

I heard from TV guide web site that 'ABC is contractually obligated to air the Pushing Daisies remaining episodes, but I've also heard that they might burn them all off in a one-night marathon. That's a lot of pie for one sitting.' If that is true for PD that could also happen with Eli Stone. What do you think?
