The NYC taglines I actually found very strong. Leah, Ramona and Luann were all excellent and I LOVE Dorinda screaming hers for some bizarre reason lol. I'm looking forward to a fun season from them.

I muted him on Twitter to avoid seeing things like that, but it does seem dire. The irony is that republicans in the senate seem to be the ones having to quarantine and seem to be in more danger because they simply aren't taking this seriously. I worry with the Senate that things will get worse for all of them due to the lack of pre cautions being taken. Then so many people are still taking this too lightly assuming they'll get government checks. I havent' been counting on that because we know how full of it these people are. As we can see by the bill they're trying to pass, it's likely most Americans won't get anything and the businesses will be the ones saved. If that happens I can't imagine how Americans will react.

Via Youtube I've been re-watching Knots Landing and the page I use has started adding some short lived soaps so I've started on those as well. So far I've found CPW, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, 2000 Malibu Road and Savannah. SO far I've watched CPW, Palisades and just started Malibu Road. Pacific Palisades - This was the first I watched and I'd seen it before so it wasn't a surprise or anything. I will say, this was is very enjoyable in a Melrose Place meets Knots Landing sort of way, but the cast is very hit or miss. Also I find it odd that considering how amazing the writing staff is that the show wasn't better. You literally had writers from both of the best eras of Knots Landing on the show, but it was largely forgettable. I also think casting Joan Collins as an American faking her accent was silly when you had Finola Hughes on the show. Also considering Finola's character had rich parents it would've made more sense to cast Joan as her mother. All in all this was a fun watch, but understandable why it ended. Central Park West/CPW - This is one of the most iconic flops considering how high profile and expensive it was. In the end it was obviously just on the wrong network because this show was EXCELLENT. Well written and well cast. I'd love a reboot of this. Because of the lack of success they did a massive retool which including changing the name. CPW was TERRIBLE. One of the worst things I've ever seen. It was turned into a dated, disjointed copy of Dynasty down to the plot points. Raquel Welch was horrific and most of the promising young cast was wasted with the retool. 2000 Malibu Road - I've only seen the two hour premiere, but this was really interesting. It had it's own identity and I couldn't really place it in terms of similarities to any of the other primetime soaps. It's a shame CBS didn't have faith in the show because I feel it could've gone on for years. This holds up well. From what I gather this was a surprise ratings hit, but CBS had let the casts options expire (thinking it would flop) and they couldn't get everything back together to renew the show. Lisa Hartman Black is EXCELLENT here in a role very different from both of her Knots Landing roles. Tuesday Knight is another surprise as Drew Barrymore's crazy sister. Lots of familiar soap faces as well. So far I've seen Robin Strasser, Scott Bryce and Brian Bloom pop up. Next I think I will watch Paper Dolls which I haven't seen in years. I have Savannah on DVD but I remember getting bored and never finishing it so that one I will probably watch last.

This actually looks better than the trailer! Still doesn’t change the fact that we know all this stuff happens at the end of a long season.

Sutton despite being announced as a HW, filming a title and intro card and filming the *entire* season has been demoted. Overall looks watchable. You can tell it's edited within an inch of its life though and we know the Denise stuff is the end of the season so it'll be interesting to see how they make 20 episodes out of this.

With everything shut down I wonder what is even going to happen with the HWs shows that are filming. I believe you have OC which has been filming for a few weeks and New Jersey just started filming. There's no telling how long the gap will be until they resume filming. Dallas I can't see premiering until next year now because they haven't even started filming.

RHOA reunion was due to tape Thursday but according to Twitter it had been canceled for now.

Biden not reaching out to Jesse Jackson makes sense considering how Anti-Obama he was. He lost lots of respect and support in the black community over that. I don’t think he’s ever fully recovered from that.

She already turned Obama down for AG so I don’t see that happening. She’s made it clear she’s been there and done that. I’d say either VP or Secretary of State or she’ll stay in the Senate where she’s very effective.

Bravo's app is listing April 15th as RHOBH's premiere date. I'm hoping that means we get an official announcement soon. This has been so drawn out that my expectations have skyrocketed. After all this hype in the press, extended filming and a fricking cast of thousands, this better be amazing. SMH!

At this point, Bernie is 100% done in my mind and it's due to what yall are talking about, which is an arrogance that he and his followers have and a lack of desire to work with others. I've been saying you can't threaten people to vote for you. You need to reach out and ENGAGE. On Rachel Maddow last night, she had to re-direct him THREE TIMES to speak about black voters, not generalized "POC." In the end he conceded that Hillary and Obama (with Biden getting an Obama bump) were too popular with black voters so he couldn't compete with them. He knew this in 2016, so it amazes me he has not tried to reach out to the black community since then. He wouldn't even meet with Jim Clyburn to try and spread his message to black voters. I feel the media, as always, gave him a pass and reported on him and his movement in a way that made it seem like he was the sure bet. Everybody is shocked he did so poorly on Super Tuesday, but this was always obvious if the people reporting on it were more diverse. Most of the current shocks are only because the black community has largely been ignored by the media. We spent so much time on interviewing Trump supporters and focusing on the midwest and they forget their main constituency. Right now Bernie has canceled a rally in Mississippi because he has given up on trying to gain the black vote and his Castro comments have killed him in Florida. In a poll with Bloomberg, Sanders and Biden, he got 12% of the vote! He's toast. My biggest question now is when he will drop out, if Biden continues stacking up these wins. He says he'll bow out if Biden gets a majority, but that is so hard to believe given his history.

I never expected Hillary to pick Tim Kaine, so anything CAN happen, but Biden has mentioned Kamala enough that it certainly isn't a long shot to think she's on his short list.

@DRW50 I keep forgetting about Bloomberg. I have no idea the impact he will have. Polls have been so wrong I don't trust them and the amount of money he has invested it's just hard to know how things will fall for him. The thing with these endorsements is I do think they would've had a big impact if they were sooner. It's hard to judge how much of an impact they'll have the day before Super Tuesday with so many people voting early. I wonder how the results will be listed considering so many people have dropped out.

I had MSNBC on as I was cooking and I was confused when Hardball went right into the opening credits instead of his usual opening quip into the credits. I turned my head and he announced it was his last show and apologized for the allegations against him. It seemed like he was going to finish the show, but they immediately went to commercial and when they came back Steve Kornacki was at a news desk damn near in tears and clearly confused. They had to go to ANOTHER commercial so he could get it together and take over the show. It was a total mess! By the end of the show Kornacki WAS crying and he had to apologize to the guests who were scheduled and on standby and couldn't appear due to all the confusion. Now I agree Chris Matthews was long overdue for an exit, but I was shocked at just how it happened. You could tell the network wasn't prepared for that. In other news, I was stunned to see Amy drop out today! I enjoyed Amy, Pete and Beto's speeches at Biden's rally. It's overdue and I hope it has an impact. I think Pete has grown throughout the campaign and has a future if he continues to grow and learns from this. Warren did a speech afterwards saying that the people who dropped out were "Washington elites" trying to convince you to vote for Biden. She has been such a disappointment and as this campaign goes on you can't tell what she truly believes. She just seems to want to win and seems very self-centered. She has less votes and delegates than Amy or Pete, yet is trying to stay until the convention for what?! Even if it was a brokered convention she wouldn't have a chance. It would obvious be between Biden and Sanders.

I’m proud of Pete for putting ego aside and doing the right thing. Considering he has more votes and delegates that Klobuchar and Warren, they should be embarrassed at this point. Warren is literally only playing for a contested convention and had no path to the nomination.

I always wondered what happened to Aubrey Dollar. I'm surrpised she hasn't had a bigger career. Definitely gonna check that show out.

I had no idea! I only paid attention when they first announced it and it was vague what it would even be. I honestly didn't think much would come of it until I saw that trailer. Now I'm all in!

This is amazing and was so unexpected! I love how much she's been working in primetime lately and a high profile film like this is a nice bonus. I never expected them to include her when this was announced, now she's one of the main reasons Twitter is going crazy over the trailer! And again it shows the value in her an actress and it's a shame that once again Daytime is stuck in the stone age not appreciating an actress as strong as her.

Honestly I feel like she should drop out. Her campaign has been a total disappointment to me. There is no reason she should be where she is right now in the campaign. Like others, she ignored black voters and I remember when asked if SC should go sooner because it's a more diverse state she said she's just a "player in the game" and ignored it just like she's ignored black voters. She's played catch up in the final weeks, but the investment really wasn't there. It was a given SC wouldn't go for Bernie, but she could've carved a path out for herself if she cared to do so. I don't have sympathy for her or Pete or Amy. They did this to themselves. I think all three need to drop out, along with Bloomberg.

The debate was a mess overall, but one big missed opportunity was when Elizabeth Warren was hitting Mike Bloomberg on being a republican and he completely bumbled the response. Why wouldn’t he mention that she was a republican until she was 50?! I couldn’t believe he got tripped up by THAT especially coming from her. Overall I though Bernie was a mess when confronted, which is why more should’ve done that and sooner. Also, Warren is clearly wasting people’s money and running for Bernie’s VP. It was incredibly obvious. Biden had a good night. I feel Pete did too, but Pete, Amy and Steyer are still wasting people’s time.

LMAO! I died when Teresa said they producers won’t expose her and Melissa is like “Nah girl, you bout to be exposed” and she goes off😭 ETA: Dallas is officially renewed and Leanne is out.

Tyler Perry uses this mysterious ratings drop as the reason he doesn't have a writing room, but the real reason is because he didn't want the writers to be in the union and didn't want to pay them. Nobody ever calls him out on it, but that is literally the only reason. His shows are horrific and it's a shame because they could be better with more people involved to execute his vision. It amazes me he has a show called SISTAS, with no black women writing.

If y’all can find Bernie’s full interview on 60 Minutes, I highly recommend it! Anderson Cooper took him to task on so much, including his piss poor record in the senate.

I can’t STAND her ass! Ugh. If she takes down Monique and Karen I’m taking to the streets!

Karen better not play any games with us! I hadn’t even heard any rumors that she had a rough season! Without her I just don’t know what would happen. She is the glue that holds that show together!
