Taoboi

I haven't sat down to watch it cuz of my busy work week, but I've seen the comments...some of which tracks when when I was watching DAYS when RC first came on. Which seems to be the wavelength I saw online as well.

8-23 Wooooow!!! It was coming for a while with Molly vs Kristina since the loss of the baby. But daaaayyyy-ummm Molly DESTROYED KRISTINA. And I felt for everybody (you go selling it, NLG), BUT Kristina. Why? Because ever since Molly started to think Kristina is why the baby is dead and Molly found those papers, it was a ticking time bomb before the explosion. That said...the funeral was great. And it built throughout. And the looks that Molly was giving (KV was a force, building through her scenes just like AL does as Summer on Y&R) because of not only what she knew, but her look said what I was saying to my tv...it's a baby's funeral and Kristina was sooooo making it about herself. And once it got it 'what did you call my daughter?' and Kristina shaded Molly ability to have a child physically....oooooo bitca...so I loved Molly tearing her apart. And the fact that everyone was still trying to coddle Kristina...KV played it so well and I STILL felt she was holding back. And then she became like ice...not leaving without TJ. Just such a great series of scenes. And RIIIIIIIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I see FV is back to product placement to get that money in. Side-eye. Why was HOME AND HEARTH there? And this Lois storyline. Ugh. It was such a circle in a square peg with all the other juicy drama going on over the last few episodes. I LOVE Lucky being back...but in true FV tradition...that intro was clunky...should have just left the whole scene until the end. I did love the Laura/Liz scene. I loved Maxie being told about Lulu returning to town...something else I've been wanting this year. LAURRA, ALLL YOUR KIDS ARE COMING HOME HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I really loved the Chase/Dante scenes...shades of PM introspective writing. Backing back a little...I love Ric already having chemistry with MV's Molly. And having her back. And awww at Joss/Trina making up. And why is it that every time LH subs for Sam, she just fits in so perfectly? And all I can do is shake my head at Sonny and Ava basically resetting to pre-PM settings. That said...Maury West has been rocking that ponytail and giving a lot more of fierce Ava. And now Wagger done upped and carried her off. Speaking of carried off...where's Scotty?

Well, you are old. 😜 He can be my Daddy though with his scruff. hehe.

Hmmmmm

8-26 Well outside of Nick FINALLY being out of that jacket and the camera trying its best to hide JM's bubble...this episode was pretty meh to me. Which is weird to me because it focused on the storylines that I'm currently interested in. Which right now is the Faith/Lucy storyline and the Sharon storyline. I liked that Faith got a clue about Sharon lying. And I loved that Sharon finally told Faith the truth about what's going on with her. So how tragic for Faith to get in a car accident. And then Faith and Lucy...I kinda want to know how the accident happened. It looked like Faith was finally talking sense to Lucy. And Lucy is just...obsessed. And loved the little scene between Jack/Kyle and Kyle/Summer/Chance. Giving nice B story. 8-26 Well outside of Nick FINALLY being out of that jacket and the camera trying its best to hide JM's bubble...this episode was pretty meh to me.

tbf, Billy ain't going to outdo an actual divo. The impression I got from the comments I saw...it's more than two and if you know how subtle blunt works...then you know.

From all the responses I saw yesterday I would say yes. It sounds like he sounded like how Anthony Geary was talking about 'the Writer' when he left GH. That's why I had to do a double take. Which the last part is also a dig.

Well that might be good for Sheila. At least for now. lol. I was just thinking that in light of the Luna relevation. Brad has to have his psycho. The only good couple we have at this point is Sinn.

Oh God, yes. People online said he was spilling all kinds of tea on RC. If true...which it seems t be...smh. The Writer strikes again!!! YES THIS. I finally saw a picture of her online and I could not tell the difference almost. Total double take. I had heard Gabi was written out and written back in, but had not seen who replaced Camila. Just wow. YES THIS. I finally saw a picture of her online and I could not tell the difference almost. Total double take. I had heard Gabi was written out and written back in, but had not seen who replaced Camila. Just wow.

You know what? I could see them doing the drugging incident just like that. We heard it here first.

Well going by online rumbling it sounds like they are placing BrookLyn where Sam should be so...

8-26 And finally...it's said aloud. Luna IS the killer. Well...I guess the plus to that is that the actress looks like she's going to give camp. lol. On the other hand, I guess it means that Brad Bell got tired of trying to make her and RJ happen. So does that mean RJ is leaving...or is he heading for a triangle with Will now that he's been aged up? That cage in the house....lol...definitely camp. So Bill and Justin DID make up off-screen? What a waste.

OC After another horrible work day...yay I'm free from work to enjoy my Labor Day. So I'm happy to say that I got to watch my first episode of the 'Tamra Returns' season. And...I liked it. I liked the seasons without her. And I have loved how OC has slowly bounced back, starting with Heather's return the season before this one. But it was still missing...something. And here comes Tamra. So this episode was a solid start. We got an update on Tamra. We got updates on the other housewives. And Tamra is already slowly stirring the pot by coming after Shannon. I still miss Noella and Elizabeth Vargas (who I am happy to hear made an appearance in the current season?), but I felt this episode had a nice slow burn to it and that coda with the ONE WEEK LATER...hehe...she's starting... First impressions for me... TAMRA. It was nice to get the update. Just like when Kenya came back to RHOA, they gave her a whole montage. Eddie has gone back to looking FOINE, though I'm sorry about Cut Fitness. Love her or hate her, Tamra does put in the work, and she appeared to be a lot more chill here. SHANNON. Speaking of chill, I like that Shannon has been playing Tamra dust from go. I'm sure it won't stay that way. But it's rare that Shannon appears to be happy. I also know it won't last. And HAhahaha at Shannon walking in on Tamra and Dumb&Dumber Emily, and Gina talking about her. HEATHER. Giving wealth. Giving class. Giving a potential feud with Gina. EMILY. Is still being a little pot-stirrer, but will she outdo Tamra? Hm. Probably not. And look at her with Tamra during that little exercise. I couldn't help, but feel Tamra was putting her on notice. GINA. Just throwing anything at the wall to keep herself relevant. Which sadly...a feud with Heather just might do that. JEN. So far, so good. And I don't care if he's crooked (yet), but her man with the roman nose is FOINE, too. She is definitely intriguing. And how OC that all the ladies are already gossiping behind her back.

Lol. Well at least the actress is giving camp...perfect for how overdramatically fierce JMW can be as Steffy. I'm down.

OMG Same!!!! Since her days as Jana on Y&R. I never knew!!! Oooooo so this is the interview I've been hearing so much about where Billy drags the Writer.

Yep. It got moved with the quickness. Yeah, I called it at random on Luna as well. Not sure if I believe it. Well, I could believe it...especially the Hollis part...if it was just about Luna wanting a better life which Bill can provide as she would be a Spencer. On the other hand, too many plot holes in the motive for me. But I haven't finished the week yet so we will see how it goes.

Awwww sad Daddy...

Ooooh I feel that re: horrible work week. Today is my Friday, and the work politics have been extremely messy, sad, and unfortunate. So looking forward to the back-to-back days I have coming off to decompress, chill...and binge lol. I hope you are able to do the same. Until then...*HUGS* I figured I got it then, and other people explained it online better...and Brooks of course went online with texts making it seem like that whole drama was a case of Stanbury being a sniper from the side (which is why I love these games between Stanbury and Lesa), but it seem like Lesa was simply just doing an event at the venue...not unlike how Kenya does her events...it's just that Brooks is also just a spa while Lesa's launch was about a lot more than spa-ing. But how Lesa had the set-up does not sound like Brooks would have let her do up the Glass House the same way than the place Lesa chose. Otherwise, Lesa would have considered it. Brooks being the diva she is...was going to be offended either way. I wish Lesa had just given her a heads-up. Also interesting that apparently Brooks and Lesa talked (and resolved) it off screen before that brunch. So it seems like Taleen was trying to be messy for a moment. Oh, yeah. Over the last few episodes, Saba has been speaking nothing, but common sense to Sara (with a Nina cameo) and I've like that in a friend. And she's slightly goofy so I finally warmed to her. It is sad to see they fell out. But I take it you saw my video above. Interestingly enough, Sara was on the same show. So I feel the plot thickens. I also hope she comes back. Oh, tell me about it. I have friendships like that. And a lot of fallout over the past year. It definitely makes for compelling drama. THE HILLS with LC and Heidi comes to mind. Or B Davis and P Sawyer on ONE TREE HILL. And Lesa and Ayan now. As for right now and friendships breaking up...Mercury Retrograde perhaps...this particular one was about introspection and also reveals on peoples' true nature. I don't know if you believe in that kind of thing, but I'm a spiritual person and the energy has definitely been out there for it. Also part of what's been going on at my workplaces.

8-21 Hold up, hold up, hold up!!! No one told me that people were going to running around reading each other. LOL!!!! I was mentioning that I liked the scene between Jordan and Molly the other day. Part of that was the fact that they don't usually have scenes together. And alone. It was nice and unexpected and it was a versus. I'm now wondering if Cathy wrote that episode (and will probably go back in the thread to look), because this episode is ON FIRE. I didn't have Joss vs Trina on my bingo card given how they try to write Trina as a background character at times. But not only did Trina have a point of view. Not only did she read Joss down. But TA BROUGHT IT. She was having NONE of Joss's sass and I was here for it. And it is good to see the Ava/Trina friendship more or less restored since I felt it was abruptly changed. Ava will always need that Achilles heel that humanizes her, but keep her as the femme fatale. Meanwhile, Anna vs Sonny??? The fact it looked like they were about to throw Anna (well, more) on the Altar of Sonny to make him look better only for Anna to throw KAREN ON A POLE in Sonny's face. OOooooooo read, Anna...REEEEEADDDD. And then she dragged Jason away, too. I was hollering and love the history usage. I even like that the New/Old Writers acknowledged that Anna broke it off with Sonny during PM's run. The amount of grey in Anna and Jason during this episode were fascinating to watch. And now Jason is reading Anna with her WSB past as a double agent after she brings up his accident. And awww at the Anna/Jason breakup...one of my favorite pairings under PM. More, please. Speaking of Sonny, MB suuuuure is rising to the occasion. That said, Sonny is really coming across slimy to me as the episodes keep going. He was about to use Anna for bait. He doesn't give a frak about Anna. But at the same time, we are supposed to see Sonny as some hero? I am not getting grey from him as much as I am getting polarizing. I guess it is better than the indifference I normally feel when it comes to Sonny (outside of Brenda). And Kristina...aka 'deer in the headlights.' (well-played, writers with that piece of dialogue. )The bombshell of her deciding that she was going to keep the baby after all. I think we all know I am a Kristina fan, but BIIIIITCCC*H. Like father, like daughter. But it's the first time in a long while since I've disliked her. If the New/Old Writers are going for a Molly v Kristina family feud...I'm Team Molly. Moreso after I gasped when Alexis told Molly to look in her briefcase. Liking everything surrounded the funeral so far. And definitely feeling it.

Wow. You all were not kidding about Kate Mansi. WOW.

Hehe. Like I said...hit or miss when it comes to May. Awwwww. BUT...I agree. And during to their awesome break-up...like everyone else here...I just don't feel anything else, but grovelling before the happy ending will do. It will be full circle to that scene in fact. And I liked that 2013 was a step in the right direction with them getting back on good terms from the break-up. Well if Sonny can recover from AJ's murder... While I agree with this, I felt the 8-19 episode felt more like an official shift for these New/Old Writers than even that. I admit that I'm impressed with how watchable it has been been in spite of the abruptness. It has a flow again. A momentum. And while some things still bug me (Sasha/Cody interruptus silly comedy, Ava/Nina becoming friends again like before PM), it's surprisingly good binging.

I always felt it was February, November, and (depending on the writing regime) May. Cuz usually February and November Sweeps for soaps were really great soaps. May could be so hit-or-miss.

Emphasis on A LOT OF HARD WORK.

I think we were just joking and not to be taken literally. Though bitd it was February, May, and November were the big focuses with end of summer being a nice treat.

As if I won't watch that all over again after this hectic work day. lol. Not going to lie. I watched this one a week or so ago. lol. I thought it was well done if funny. I am sure it's in my FAVORITES list, too. Technically no. But I do like it when soaps go for it at end of summer anyway. Keeps us fans on our toes.
