Taoboi

Hehe. THIS. Oooo closing out the month at 100.

Good to hear it was real.

Adriana will always bring the fun. Sorry, not sorry, Marysol. Oh, well.

I hope it isn't for your sake as well. It's a beautiful day and I want to be out and about around errands so I'm leaving, but have fun!!!

HAHAHAHAHA Same. It's just great to finally have an event again after three months of nada. So plenty to talk about on this last day. And it's been a minute since this thread has hit third digits on pages.

Well, it's a too lovely day out and I'm normally not off on Thursday much anymore so I'm heading to the pier for some touching grass, maybe some writing, and of course people watching. So I'll watch later, too. No interruptions.

LOL. Oh, you!!!

In time.

The power of the childhood crush. Otherwise, totally agree.

Aww But good to see they have done interviews. But I do hate scenes that don't hold up well. But I understand the signs of the time on some things.

Good question at this point. No T, no shade.

This show is sooo good at people popping up after someone mentions them. I know of another one coming up as well.

Congrats to her.

Probably because their scenes have mostly been ridiculous meet-cute scenes and not in the adorable way of meet-cute at that. The show will be going on and then take a SHARP turn into a (bad) rom-com when they came on screen. From what I can tell, the writing has mellow on that with their scenes, but very little. At this point, I zone out when they are in scenes. Not helped by the elephant in the room that is TJ every time I see them together. The funny thing is I agree with you on salvageable Cody. I thought it was stupid when Kristina got him to try to seduce Ava. So stupid. But watching it play out...and seeing the potential for drama it could bring due to all who are involved (and people I care for)...it's a good turn for him. And it gets Cody out of that meet-cute mess into something a little bit meatier.

You ain't lying though. Sam funnily enough still had potential in light of the returns. Right now, Molly doesn't really do anything. A contrast to when it seem like her character was going somewhere.

I totally understand. I used to hate Tajh Bellow as a recast TJ. But he (and that bubble butt) grew on me. I really started to see his potential in the role during the Willow disease storyline and wished they had done an affair between the two of them then. But alas. And I didn't want the surrogacy storyline, but I liked that we did get a point of view on him. And I wished the writers had kept going on that. Again alas. I mean...the last time we saw him and Molly together, it was TJ moving out. Him being in town is just petty shade. Moreso because does Molly even mention him now? They really should be trying to work it out still. What I liked in the aftermath of Kristina's fall was that there was a widening rift between them. It appeared to be going somewhere, and it was just dropped. The rift could have been sooo used to lead into what is going on now with her and Cody. Meanwhile, TJ could be leaning on someone else...or dare I say...Lucas since Tajh and Van also had good chemistry. My bad. I saw Vanessa and Maurice looked like they did an interview on it and thought of you. Speak on it!!!

I also love that for what spoilers we do get, there's a LOT that we are not spoiled on. They really could have done it sooner. But with Bryton, I'm sure he's here for the reunion episodes which goes down Friday and Monday. I'm curious about the why, how he will be written, and who is next. From what little hints that are out there, it sounds like it will be a big deal so I definitely can't wait. lol. Everyone I see online say the same thing re: someone for Kat/Eva.

BTG is far from boring. Y&R on the other hand... Heck Devon is even dressed better over there off the promo.

RHOM How was I not warned? lol. Last week's episode was great from start to finish!!! I don't know where to begin. The fact that we got TWO events in one episode, and they were BOTH well-done. The presentation. The fashion! The looks! The glamour! I was in awe. And two weeks in a row where Adriana looked gorgeous in blue. I LIVE!! Production's camera angles and direction. And then the events at Guerdy's Celebration of Life event? I was already surprised by the flashforward. But the rollback took my breath away. I felt a way about Julia having that conversation with Russell. It was an echo of Guerdy having a conversation with Martina and it was so night and day. Martina clearly had no idea while Russell knew EVERYTHING. So I felt Julia was fishing for information and the insincerity of them talking poured off the screen. So to see that Guerdy felt the same way in the rollback and set up for her text messages to be revealed...was my kinda mess. It was low-key for me giving what Kenya's event on RHOA would have given if we were allowed to see ALL sides. No, I didn't like that most of those ladies reacted like they SHOULD have reacted when Julia threw that drink. I smh. Meanwhile, we had the subplot of Alexia vs Stephanie...and I was yasssssss!!! Alexia has been needing a rival for a minute, and they are evenly matched. So...YES, PLEASE. ALEXIA. She was giving Regina George. Not helped by Marysol and Julia (and Kiki...and Larsa) acting like minions. So I was glad that Stephanie stood up to her. We all know that Alexia was getting her lick back at Stephanie stirring the pot about Todd over the last few episodes anyway. Meanwhile, what she don't know is that Julia WAS ALSO stirring the pot with Todd tea to Marysol. And I'm not here for her backing Julia because she don't like Guerdy and therefore won't own her dislike. LARSA. I liked her little ki-ki with Stephanie and learning Stephanie is OCD. That said I didn't like she was still butthurt about Lisa, and I loved that Stephanie picked that up. So another subplot continues. smh. I will give Larsa this much though. I too zone out on getting a long message to read so she's not alone on that one. JULIA. She continued to click down for me this week. I didn't like the episode started with her. I didn't like the feeling I got seeing her around Russell because it looked false. And those little smirks during the text message reveal...smh. And then her playing victim. I loved that Adriana brought the common sense...if Guerdy was lying, all Julia had to do was show her own text messages. Fact...the messages would have been in sync and Julia would have been a liar. Better for her to keep playing victim. Anything for Alexia's favor, I guess. LISA. I hollered at her GoT reference. And I like her being there for Guerdy. And she stayed giving looks at both events. STEPHANIE. She is so growing on me. I liked the OCD reveal. I liked that she was trying to see both sides. And ooooo I love her vs Alexia. She might be just the thing that Alexia needs to not be coasting. I really liked that she was able to see another person's side, but still express her own feelings as well. And I hollered again at Lisa remembering Steph's pet peeve and getting to the event on time. Steph, the power you have!!! GUERDY. I was Team Guerdy. It seem clear that Julia is trying to have this narrative with her as a victim and Guerdy as a villain. And I like she felt a way seeing Julia around her husband. We were both suspicious. And the best way to get it over with if you are truly moving past something, MENTION...IT...ALL. Guerdy did. Julia could have easily concur or contradicted, but she didn't. If anything, I expect Julia to be spinning her narrative anew. I'm just sorry that the other ladies are not trying to see both sides. Or even listening. So this should be interesting to watch. Just don't get toxic. And now that I see Ms. Nicole on my screen, let me watch this new episode of dueling yachts.

Hahahahahahaha

RHOM Again, Taoboi? AGAIN??? I've been so busy that I forgot to talk about RHOM again. And I'm behind again/ I should be caught up by tonight's episode. That said...I thought it was another easy, breezy episode of the show. And that's how I like my telenovela girls. I was a little bit worried about this narcissist party...mostly because well have you seen most of these ladies hahaha...but I really liked it. I liked the mirror messages. I liked a lot of the confessionals. And the clothes...Adriana looked great in blue. I hollered at Lisa's impromptu photoshoot. That said...I didn't like the gang-up that appeared to be going on with Lisa. Larsa was wrong for that mess. I did like Steph and Lisa came to an understanding (with light shade from Production). And Guerdy being a moderator later on between Larsa and Lisa was a hoot. Another highlight was the server at the restaurant calling Larsa out on yelling. It was a nice return to form from an episode that had a hint of toxic to it...which Julia did try to bring back by harping on the drama she was having with Guerdy. Drama she brought up FIRST. ALEXIA. I thought it was a good event she put together. And her friend was FOINE. Adriana and I agree. LARSA. She was sitting there and being so messy this episode. And the fact that so many people were pointing out what she was doing wrong when they would try to get her and Lisa together to talk it out was hilarious. Narcissist much? lol. And her and Lisa in the restaurant...lol. Well, I might not have liked her, but she was giving. GUERDY. GUUUUUUUUERRRRRRRDY!!!! I CAN'T with her doing commentary on Lisa and Larsa trying to talk it out at the dinner. I love that she saw what Julia was doing and went right along with it. After all we said we wouldn't talk about it, but there you go TALKING ABOUT IT. Oh, well, I guess I will talk, too. lol. And on a more serious note, I respect that Guerdy wanted to go with Russell to some couple therapy. I understand why and the foresight of it. But at the same time, I felt like Russell has been nothing but supportive of his wife...has since they were in high school. He is her ride-or-die and shows it. So I almost have to frown at the therapy scenes. I love seeing them together either way. It was bringing the real. JULIA. Respectfully at that. Her a$$ ain't slick. She said she don't even want to talk about it, yet here she went trying every moment to bring up her drama with Guerdy. Then she wanted to play victim in the Confessional. And I just zoned all the way out on her segment. To quote 50Cynt from the RHOA S10 reunion...GIRL, I'M OVER YOU. LISA. Everyone had so many good points about her. But the gang-up on her was still not nice. And moreso given what just happened with her father. No, ma'am. Not liking. I liked her and Larsa came to an understanding. I just hope that Larsa does not do anything to wreck it...again. And her photoshoot was hilarious. STEPHANIE. I liked her and Lisa came to an understanding as well this episode. Meanwhile, I'm intrigued with her life with her family that she has issues with her sisters. Hopefully, it turns out better than with Brit on RHOA. Honorable mention...Adriana (Guerdy, too) having Lisa's back like a REAL sister. Let me go watch last week's. hehe.

side note...happy belated 30th anniversary to the infamous wire scene between Sonny and Brenda @carolineg 😜

Very much all of this. But you know I was fan of TJ. And yes, the optics of it was not good when I stopped watching and continues to look bad now that I am again. Cuz the side-eye I gave when he was mentioned one episode as being in the hospital somewhere was ugh. How did Frank get P.O. that we are not even getting a line of dialogue saying he left? The shhhhade. It would work better if it was a triangle and the wariness you mentioned. But instead we are...for now...stuck with meet-cute moments as if Molly isn't legally attached to someone else.

You know what? Tween Molly TOTALLY would have done that. lol. I forgot to mention earlier how much I don't like Cody/Molly. I was open to it when TJ was around. But now that he's not...well the actor, not the character apparently...I have no use for that pairing. The only potential it has is the fact that Kristina is using Cody to get to Ava who is currently with Ric. That could be interesting.

Conned folk.
