I mean given that Nina (under Michelle Stafford) started as a nutjob...it tracks.

Whhhhhhhhhhhhatttttttttttt Sounds like Dani is giving a show today!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! YES!!! Two in a row??? YASSSS!!! You have just made my day! Now that I think of it... @alwaysAMC as well. YES. His story has been an umbrella for a while. A month and a week and counting. And giving A story the way it should have from Episode 1. I definitely like when Jen plays attitude more than this Carrie Bradshaw-Lite (as in later season SATC alias the shrew) she's been doing with Ashley. So I could see her being better as a villainess vs a Mary Sue. Cuz right now, I side-eye her soooo hard now and I liked her in the beginning. I totally get that.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
I really want to say it was 8 and it did well. And it was such a big deal because Thursday was when the heavy hitter primetime tv shows were airing so it stood out that OC were maintaining solid ratings. But Bravo be liking putting shows they know are going to get low ratings at 9 PM when they should be at 8 PM. I'm still mad they put RHOM at 9 PM premiere week to just show a Scenes We Didn't See on SUMMER HOUSE of all things. WTF. Put your good shows (or other) at 8 PM and watch those ratings put some of your 'favorite' ones to shame. Sorry, rant over. lol. Yeah...when I think HW shows, I too think Sunday, Tues, and Wed as well. I remember Thursday was for TOP CHEF and PROJECT RUNWAY. Which is going to be weird to watch now that Heidi is back...but no Tim Gunn. Well, there's also the rumor that the show stole the whole idea (and title) from an up and coming black man who wanted the celebrities to be all kids of well known and well off black celebrities. And I'm not even sure if it is complete rumor since that man did come forward with the tea. Thank you for the condolences. Yesterday was really rough as well as I continue to deal with 'modern' work culture. Give me the days of people who back up what they mean with good (or lazy) work ethic rather than playing in a person's face. I'm honestly at boiling point and its to my credit as I approach my work anniversary (two years...I'm proud of that regardless come Monday) that I have not snapped under unneeded micromanaging. But bright side, I'm taken to either going and sitting in the park now and just being to ground my energy...or I go on walks. I also cherish my off days...like today...in a way that I did not before which means my perspective truly has changed. I am currently considering a bit of a misadventure...probably after BTG...because there's a lesbian latina boystore I want to explore. We'll see. As for vacationing, it's funny. I've noticed that NYC and Nashville keep popping up in random ways around me. But...due to the political climate...I'm good. lol. I have no desire to do LA. And I have been minor toying with San Fran...since I have not gone in a long while. Same for Vegas. And Denver. Due to my job, I do have a great discount, but still on the fence due to budget and schedule and work drama. So...we will see. Oh, I know you were. So I was happy to be tagged and found out that you finally took a vacation. I was so proud of you. I hope that work is doing better for you. And just how you described it...mmmmm...you make me realize how much I miss traveling. But I had the best schedule for that when I was younger in college. Work Sunday-Thursday and then I was off somewhere on the weekends or just off...lol. Good times. GOD YES!!! I'm dealing with that right now at my job. It is a blessing when you have to train one and they are just eager to learn, not entitled, and/or whiny. Those are truly the unicorns of the young'uns, and while I've mellowed, you can always tell the ones that I taught...and they listened...versus those who wanted to argue. In fact, I went on a job interview a couple of weeks ago to a high class hotel in the rich part of town...one of my favorite interviews to date and the most professional handling of a rejection in YEARS here...and who should be there working, but one of my trainees. I haven't seen him since 2019. Happy to see him. Aged well. Still doing the job and I know he's being paid so much more than what we were paid when we worked together. And like a father, I was proud to see him working there. NEXT GEN X so far...just makes me miss the crazy energy of NYC. No lie.

I see potential in that as well. Just look at how people have turned on her and like (more or less) Derek now.

Now we all know if anyone is about to steal a baby again, it's Silk Press Sheila. I'm down for Ashley having a downward spiral post being left all along...like she wanted after all.

Well I'm all for Alexis and Sonny given the rapport they have had over the last few years. But...yeah...if they won't kill off Sonny, they know he needs to beg Brenda's forgiveness when they finally write him out.

Speak on it! So true. He even makes RC's breakdown interesting and worth watching on screen. Perhaps she will fall off the wagon, too.

Right after Derek read Ashley down after she turned down his proposal. I want to say they had one more episode around each other that took place the next day. Then it was an abrupt one liner the Thursday/Friday before the week break that Ashley told Andre right before she asked him out while fishing to see if Andre was seeing anyone else. Andre, of course, said nothing about what he has going on...and with whom. tbf she DID warn Ashley a looooong time ago. 😜 I was waiting for your response cuz Andre looked deer in headlights.

So...is that the last time we are seeing Randy? Every time someone mentions Hayley has a baby coming, I giggled. Is this going to keep going on until November Sweeps? That bubble is bubbling. Hehe.

BTG: July 2025 Discussion Thread
First of all...JAZMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Second of all...whoever said that Joey is probably going to count his money and realized some was missing and thus Kenny is probably alive...DEAD ON!! Lol. I can't even look at Hayley the same now that I know about that baby lie. Why is Dani here? Meh at Andre/Ashley. I'm seriously glaring at her like I do Giggly Heffa on Y&R. Derek looking kinda good. OMFG SHANICEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I'm having a rough day and decided to finally sit down and see how Riley is doing and so far I like it. It could be because it's current NYC though...which has been on my mind lately.
