RHOSLC Loved the premiere episode. I mean love LOVE LOOOOVED it. I liked that little homage they did with the Blair Witch Project movie. It's fun. But I couldn't help but wonder... Are Bravo this desperate for ratings these days... that they HAVE to start a season with such a culmination episode? Gone are the days of the slow-burn. It's in your face drama and histrionics from the get go. Don't get me wrong. It's entertaining and I loved it, but will they be able to sustain this through the whole season? We'll see. On the housewives - Heather continues to be insufferable. She is constantly overestimating her own intelligence and thinks she's witty and the leader. Bronwyn is off this season, she is way more unnatural, like she learned some lesson the first season and has decided to play a role. I still love her, but I miss something. Still, it's only 1 episode. Lisa Barlow continues to be a trigger for drama, the bish is such a toxic character, but somehow works for this show. She is embedded in the DNA of SLC. A toned-down Jody Claman. Even when she's away, she's still there like a ghost. Speaking of villains - Meredith - I see her in her usual... wait and calculate mode. A smart shark that is waiting for the moment to attack. Mary - chile... nothing's gonna make me hate this Goddess. She's the gift that keeps on giving. I'm so grateful that she's back again this season. They need to pay her anything she wants, because she is TV GOLD. Whitney and Angie aka mean girls from the dollar store... These two are struggling to stay relevant, I'll keep Whitney and toss Angie out if you ask me. Britani - infantile, but not as stupid as she appears.

Stunning couple.

Amen.

The White House seems quite obsessed with these "has beens".

There is already a wave of meltdowns coming from the right wing profiles writing under all the videos and clips on TikTok. They are pooping themselves with anger and bitterness. They laughed way too early. Now the joke is on them.

Sure. And people were cheering his cancelation just yesterday and announcing it like they won some award. Always remember. He who laughs last, laughs best. So only time will tell where Jimmy is going to be in one year... Or two... Or five. The fact is Disney bowed down to public backlash. They were losing millions of dollars. That's what's key here. It shows us we should never take this kind of censorship lightly and we should always do whatever we can to oppose it. It's one win against dictatorship.

Yeah, sure. Mm-hmm... And you also spent them confirming the millions of cancellation requests coming your way.

This particular situation however was not about business. And we all know that. It was dictatorship in its purest form in blatant attempt to censure and silence critical opinion. The financial and ratings stuff was just smoke and mirrors. Even if he is back for 1 day... After all that backlash... It's still a win in my eyes. He will have an opportunity to respond. And it's also the fact that Disney basically admitted they did a mistake and quickly changed their mind after losing billions of dollars due to cancellations. Money talks, yes... But this time the people did the talking by pressing that cancel button. Good job, y'all.

Even with 38.0 fever (flu) this truly made my day. I feel like dancing. CHEERS, PEOPLE.

He's been bragging about this everywhere... he's gonna sh-t his pants for sure. They better prepare the diaper! Can't wait for the unhinged posts and meltdowns.

GOD I can't wait to see the orange idiot go into full meltdown. THIS GONNA BE FUNNY. Cheers everybody! WE all did this together. The backlash was sooooooooo great and everyone did what they could. CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW! WELCOME BACK, JIMMY!

https://www.businessinsider.com/jimmy-kimmel-back-on-abc-disney-after-suspension-fcc-2025-9 Jimmy Kimmel is returning to the air, Disney says Jimmy Kimmel's show is returning after ABC pulled it from the air last week. Kimmel's suspension came following pressure from the FCC and Nexstar. Disney said the show would return on Tuesday. P.S I guess the backlash truly made them sh-t their pants. Cheers, y'all. We all did our part!

Up to September 24th, 1992. ⭐ "A new face has arrived on the scene." 🔷 Here we go again, Llanview lovers! Today I'll be brief, because I'm sporting a fever (battling some disgusting flu). But I don't want to go ahead in the story without making some notes. And I plan to binge watch all through my flu... so I need to write some things down, so I don't forget. 🔷 Kevin has a new angel on his side. The "other Victoria" as I like to call her - Rachel Gannon. She is the voice of reason, whispering in his ear, trying to make him forgive Leanne and give his son what he desperately needs - a mother. On the other end of the spectrum, we have the devilish Asa, who is exhibiting incredibly sadistic traits these past few episodes. One of these moments... I'll clip and put in the Scene of the day section. He was basically threatening Leanne and kicking her while she was down. I've only seen Stephanie Forrester do things like this to Brooke when she was weak. But to dangle (metaphorically speaking) a woman's baby in front of her and bait her like this... is a new level of sadism. 🔷 The Suede-Tina-Max stuff is kind of boring me. Now we have a cop who is looking for him and little by little they are heading into this crime-novel storyline. It's one of the least interesting things going on right now... but I think Marty will spice it up. I'm not sure about the guy... he is too similar to Max in certain ways and the way they always yell and scream at each other just irks me. I don't like people who constantly raise their voice to each-other. It screams primitive to me. But hey... that's the type of guy he is, right? I guess if I was some sex-starved housewife who liked reading novels about radio hosts and their dangerous-but-hot admirers... I may dig it... But I'm far from it. 🔷 Blair and Tina finally resolved their little conflict and Blair got her birth control pills back. Can I say couple of words about the humiliating position Blair has allowed herself to be in. She is basically treated like a high-level-escort-incubator for babies. Asa is threatening to put her mother in a madhouse if she refuses to have sex with him. It's beyond disgusting. Not that these situations don't exist... don't get me wrong - it's working for the dramatic effect, but it's still so wrong. The way he yells to her "Come upstairs NOW" like she is some kind of dog... and then we see her take her pill in a panicked state. Quite disturbing. You could call this sexual abuse and you won't be lying. 🔷 And now let's get to the most interesting part - we have a brand new character on the scene... but she is not yet IN TOWN. We saw a glimpse of Rachel's mother - Nora. I've been told by fans to anticipate her arrival, so I gasped when I saw her. FINALLY! First impression - quite neurotic, like a character you could see on a show like Ally McBeal, very primetime vibe to her. We'll see if she is a good girl... or a troublemaker pretty soon. But I'm excited. Overall - 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clip of the day Asa torments Leanne in a very sadistic manner. videoplayback (1).mp4

Thank you for providing the name! Now I'll have to research her filmography. She is truly a gem. I have a special fondness for characters like this. About Carlo - it definitely feels to me like they tried to correct course after killing him off. It's almost like something changed behind the scenes... that's how it feels to me, but it's only speculation. I personally think the whole thing created a mess... something they are still trying to clean-up with turning him into Carlo. The entire comedy-aspect of it is also pretty tasteless. It's one of the show's weak spots. Malone doesn't do comedy well. That's just my take. Maybe in the future I'll be proven wrong, but I usually don't laugh or smile when the show tries to be funny. Maybe it's not my type of humor, but it seems like a bad Woody Allen movie remake. The dramatic-dark tones however... they KNOW how to do perfectly.

I agree. My peak is Brooke getting pregnant from Eric and keeping it a secret (Stephanie finding out who the other woman is... continues to be one of my favorite scenes ever) to Brooke taking over. It all went downhill from there.

She looks amazing. I hope GH does her justice.

Yes... and they came at just the right moments storyline wise too. LOL. KKL-Brooke was so cute when she had the baby-weight cheeks. Adorable.

I loved OG Taylor's chemistry with James Warwick and think they should have done more with it. I mean... she did cheat on Ridge with him back in the day... in the Big Bear cabin, even though they played it like a life and death situation. It was still cheating. Bring back James.

Thanks @DRW50 I love the catchy soapy music in these promos. Makes me feel nostalgic.

Someone needs to give this woman acting lessons. I haven't cringed this much in years. She is struggling to hold her laugh and smile. And the way she is forcing herself to cry by making these sour faces, honey that's not how it's done. Invest in a good acting coach!
