  1. I could be reading too much into your comment, but if it's a long shot and they haven't even ordered a pilot, the script must be a real stinker. If it's a long shot that would suggest to me there won't be a pilot, which in turn means no series.
  2. I feel like Mia was fine overall. She gave us drama, an interesting backstory and those classic airheaded HWs moments. I could see her becoming more successful in future seasons as she gets the hang of it.
  3. Now I’m always open to new cities, but y’all gonna have to help me out because I DO NOT understand this for the first international series produced by Bravo… It’s rumored to be casted around Caroline Stanbury from Ladies of London and I saw on Twitter that Dawn Ward from RHOCheshire has been spotted filming with her. I just don’t get it with urge laws they have there. They could’ve done London if they wanted to go international.
  4. This is the worst I've ever seen. It's a soap and Days is a wacky soap at that, but I feel like the past year or two all Ben and Ciara do is whine about how people don't love him and forgive him. They don't HAVE to forgive him! He murdered people! The fact that Eve is still the villain to him killing her daughter is sick to me. If you wanna reform him, do it, but MOVE ON! I'm sick of listening to them whine. One of the best redemptions I've seen was the original redemption of Michael and Kevin on Y&R, I'd even include Phyllis. Around that 2003-2004 period the show had mostly redeemed these characters, but they still only existed on their side of Genoa City. They had their supporters, but their victims and victims families were allowed to dislike them and not want to be around them. It was the perfect balance I felt. Then as the writers changed it all shifted and their crimes were swept under the rug, their victims became the villains in the story and Kevin, Michael AND Phyllis were all turned into romantic heroes and heroine. The sad thing is, they were less interesting this way and there was less depth to the story after this was done.
  5. The best interview he ever did was with Rosemary Prinz. For one, it was shocking that at 90 she was so sharp, but she completely took control of that interview and made sure she got across what she wanted to say. I hope and Eileen Fulton comes stacked with a strong internet connection and similarly is able to speak freely. It's a shame because Alan gets so many great, rare people for these interviews, but he lacks basic knowledge of these actors careers, doesn't listen which prevents good follow up questions and shuts down anything that might be juicy.
  6. To be fair, this was a story that blew up from a clip of an hour long interview Nene did. She was complementary about the ladies but was asked what specifically they gave and she mentioned she thought it was weird that a bunch of the ATL ladies pitched in to get her a $200 flower set. Kandi and Marlo did send their own flowers and Marlo sent her money to get stuff that she needed for the repass. I wish Nene hadn’t said anything, but I got what she meant, u just wish she didn’t answer the question because she should’ve known they’d only show that part
  7. She actually had an interesting gossip blog/patreon. I’ve followed her for a while. She’s always ahead of the story. She was also the first to break news of Erika’s divorce before it was announced. I’ll admit the Potomac reunion does look good, but like you all, it’s difficult to get excited for a trash person like Nicki Minaj who is currently threatening the woman her husband raped. I just can’t believe Bravo went forward with it…. RHOM’s cast announcement from peacock was a total mess. No cast photo and no trailer and all anybody wanted to talk about is Adriana not being a housewife lol. What a mess! If anything, release a cast photo or trailer to distract.
  8. I think it's because Victoria really left the industry so there wasn't much room for a redemption story. With her I always took it as she was someone who went to work, clocked out and lived her life. I've heard of many actors like that and they always get viewed negatively by the cast, but isn't that what so many of us do in our real lives? There's this expectation that every cast must be a big family and close friends, but sometimes it's just a job for you. We don't know the day to day and what everybody's personalities are really like. I never have believed she's a bad person in any way, or difficult. If Larry Hagman was allowed to do the things we know he did on that set, you can't convince me that Victoria, or any other woman had any power on this show. Look how they were all discarded.
  9. We all know how the Alice recasts went on Another World, but my question is, are there any actresses from that time period who you all think could've been good in that role? I never seemed to understand what they were going for since the recasts all seem so different from what I've seen of them. I recall one even being a brunette.
  10. I liked her on Baywatch and this HBO show she had years ago with Frank Langella. Physically she looks the part so I'm going to be hopeful. Taylor needed to return ages ago so at least that wrong has been righted. I do wish it was Kristin Alfonso, but now we just have to hope Bill Bell writes the character well.
  11. This robbery seems incredibly suspect in light of what we know about the Kemsley's finances and the fact that she claimed it's happened to them before. What kind of security does she have?!
  12. Gizelle I do think is a nice woman, but you can tell she's envious of what the other women have and that leads to her making shady comments which cause them to dislike her. She also is the Producer of the show. In the Bravo BTS book that just got released the producers (and Gizelle herself) highlighted how hard she pushes for certain scenes and stories and she will NOT give up until it;'s done. Basically, she's good TV.
  13. I think Porsha's spin off looks more interesting than I expected. I also am excited for the new season of RHOA! Most of all I'm happy my Queen Marlo got her peach finally. I know many are upset about a 6 person cast, but you know RHOA always has friends. In the end I'm sure there will be 7-8 people filming regularly. Some of the Twitter insiders have even said if filming goes well we could end up with 7 peaches. That means there's more people in the mix. I'm just happy they finally took their time and have a plan for RHOA.
  14. I never understood getting rid of this in the first place. Considering how long this show lasted and how much the cast changed, I'm very curious what type of cast they will go with. Of course we will have new characters, but I'm curious of the mish mash of old characters that join them.
  15. I'm sorry, but the Eric and Donna reunion was pure camp, hilarious and classic B&B! I miss those soap moments.
  16. I just started season two yesterday and now you have me devastated lmao! I do not look forward to seeing him again.
  17. I have a feeling that picture may be a spoiler since Amelia had to delete it. That is most likely a "Welcome Home Chance" party.
  18. See I find the show much better than I'd heard from the early years, but the one part that doesn't work for me is the Logan family. Brooke is a successful character from the gate, Storm has potential if given more to do and I like the concept of Beth although the actress (I'm still on the original) is weak. Katie and Donna are complete duds for me. I don't know if either gets better, but Katie's storyline is one note and Donna hasn't made much of an impression although the actress seems better than the one playing Katie. I can't see myself missing this family based on how dull they all are. You can tell he was inspired by the Foster family, but they had a lot more going for them that this family does. Snapper and Greg had real stories and personality and so did Jill and Liz. I feel like the writing is letting the Logan's down, but mostly they were just horribly cast outside of Brooke. Beth could've been a long term viable competition for Eric, but you need someone who can stand up next to Susan Flannery and John McCook and this first actress ain't it.
  19. Now that they have more episodes uploaded at a faster pace, I’ve started binging and this is GOOD! I had heard the early years were boring, but so much has happened in the first 30 episodes or so. I feel like they had a really solid cast and background for the show. I also love how separated the Logan’s are from the Forresters which allows both worlds to be fleshed out before they mesh. One thing that disappoints me is this thing with Stephanie and Kristin hating each other which I know wasn’t used to it’s potential. The Kristin character has never seemed to go anywhere either which is a shame. Also, the original Thorne is GORGEOUS and a good actor. I don’t look forward to his exit. I never liked his replacement.
  20. Lauralee Bell and Joshua Morrow had chemistry when they tested them and NOBODY has chemistry as good as Lauralee Bell and Michelle Stafford. Those classic episodes really showed that. I feel like Phyllis has become such a joke, but putting her back in Christine’s orbit could bring her back to life.
  21. When I watched Texas, this is what confused me. IIRC, the AOL episodes started with the final 90 minute episode of Another World, where Iris left for Texas and when I watched that first week of episodes I was so confused because everything was already in progress and I was expecting to be able to see a soap from the beginning. I eventually caught on, but it was very confusing and I imagine difficult for viewers who were looking to tune into a new soap and not Another World fans.
  22. I've wanted Heather with Carter for YEARS. They have such good chemistry as friends so I knew if they went further it would be something special. I hope they go for it. His scenes yesterday with her were EXCELLENT. Heather Tom is truly a miracle worker because he definitely stepped it up in a way you have to in order to work with her.
  23. My dream is to put Christine with Nick. Nothing would infuriate Phyllis more, but that would be too exciting for Y&R and the way they like to tell stories now.
  24. Christopher Sean was basically an extra on You. I was shocked when we reached the final episode and they gave his character and wife an ending, considering they were so far in the background the entire time. I'm happy he got the role, I'm sure he got paid well, but he deserves better. It's a shame because I feel his being Asian is probably what holds him back. I see no reason why they couldn't have utilized him better.
  25. When I tell you I literally just burst out laughing reading this! Only on Josh Griffith’s Y&R would you bring back an original character to play the piano!
