Well, looking forward to seeing Will later today. Break a leg Josh Morrow's son!!

yay!!! lol

Hehe. Dreams come true.

And it's being very clear of that as I play catch-up I am afraid. The writing is no longer as 'polished.'

It has not been too long. A day or two. But I hollered when I saw people online saying he has a type.

It so was. But alas. And Robert was good in the role. Correct. May the Beast live.

Nothing, but the truth. Billy has been unbearable. Was that Ashley's last appearance? I can't remember if we saw ED on the other end of that video? Otherwise, I would say that Ashley has not appeared since she checked into her clinic in Paris, talking to Tucker one last time and apologizing to Audra on her way out. TSJ even lit up in that last scene...only to be bored in his Audra scenes. As for the Abbotts...just Victor weaving a web as it is clear that he was Audra's silent partner to get Tucker's company so he can weaponize it against Jabot as payback on Jack for helping Nikki. That he manipulated the rift between Diane and Kyle and has Kyle as a co-head with Audra to stick it to Jack has been a bonus. Interesting...it was, but it appears to be more B plot as that plot is now focusing on the return of Kyle circa 2017...the schemer that was a prick. Lashing out at Jack and Diane and having some explosive showdowns with Summer. And the A plot for the show right now is...Billy/Lily/Chelesa/Adam, What's up with Sharon, a lil Faith/Lucy...and not much else to be honest. Quite boring the last two weeks or so.

And seriously...have you seen ANY promos or tv spots for Dubai lately? Because all I see is for the show I'm not watching NJ and everyone is over it and looking forward to their yearly pause from what I can tell. Even Andy is POed that no one likes Joey/Melissa and snapped on some fan. I agree with you about Stanbury. It's part of the reason I LOVED her on LADIES OF LONDON. Yeah she was a bitca, but she was upfront about that and VERY open. No wonder everyone was drawn to her. I have no doubt that come the forthcoming reunion filming or a WWHL appearance she will be upfront about that Michael tea that Brooks and Ayan dropped. Cuz if she doesn't...it will be her first dent in her armor. The ladies on this show have always been the best kind of Housewives...authentic friendships OUTSIDE of the show. Because of that I do feel that at some point that Sara and Stanbury will talk about it on camera. If they have not already. But...will we see it? Speaking of authentic friendships and Housewives...you and @kalbir have any thoughts on Larsa's now ex's new woman?

I agree. I can't believe the overreaction. And I liked Kristina's reasoning, and thought that was just common sense. But here I am playing catch-up and there is Kristina being irrational that TJ and Molly might break up and le sigh. So crazy. But yeah, I think it's about to get soapier for sure. Not bad at all.

Well it's about time for Kristina tbf. Sad to see that number for Rebecca Herbst though. She was finally making good times and now...

I agree. So I was glad that Hope started to get hands-on in her coming on to Finn and acting like her mother. However, I don't feel the rivalry is even until they have a slapfest since they BOTH have it coming.

Coming into August...and all I can think is...REWRITE. And by rewrite, I am talking about Ava telling Wagger about Sonny and the meds. I expect Ava to move smarter than that. Or if the plot was going to go THAT way, I would still expect that if she wanted him to know, Ava would find a way for him to find out and her hands are clean...like how she figured it out without anyone, but Valentin figuring out that she knew. I'm still trying to wrap my memory around if Ava ever figured out that someone was on to her knowing or if Val even tried to approach her.

Coming into August (yay!), it does seem like the show is finding its groove and going through one of its good periods aka more than ONE storyline going on. And they are fairly balanced out as well as intriguing. This rivalry between Katie and Poppy has been...popping. Hehe. Pun intended. Just when it looked like Katie might be getting one over Poppy, Poppy went right ahead and told Bill about her past with Tom and the possibility that he could have been Luna's dad. So...your move, Katie. lol. I guess I'm missed HT in Victoria mode for a long time so it's good to see her mixed it up with another female. And that filters into the whole murder mystery. Who killed Hollis and Tom? Could it be someone from Poppy's past that we don't know about? Or is there someone on canvas that has a connection to Poppy that we don't know about? Or could Bill had already known before Poppy said anything? it does seem like Justin will be around for a while. Though I would hate to see a Barber being a killer. The Return of Brooke's Bedroom continues to be goofy fun. And KKL has been looking great. And goodness knows I have enjoyed Steffy rolling her eyes...right into losing her passport. And now...here comes Will...at last...feels like things are looking up. I would hope so since at one point she was his father's sister. lol. Respect.

I am wondering. I am wondering.

7-29 Ugh. A complete chord. Is it wrong that I want the Adam/Chelesa fling out in the open so it can wipe the smug look off Billy's face? Because that is exactly how I feel about him at the moment. Moving around like a bull in a China shop in order to feel sooooo important. BOY...BYE. In fact, in that whole quad, I feel right now the only person I care about is Sally. So we don't even get to see the party that Faith went to? *side-eye* I did wonder if Daniel/Lucy's talk about his past with Cassie was foreshadowing. Because Cassie had such a crush on Daniel. Almost obsessive. And look at what is going on with Lucy with Faith. And this episode was the first time I cared about the Sharon storyline. I liked Sharon doubting herself. I liked to see Faith and Nick compare notes. And then Sharon/Daniel talk.

7-26 Oh, look! Friday cliffhangers are back!!! And that was a pretty decent cliffhanger, too. Everyone banding together against Wagger. So we have a new 'bad' guy. So this was the scenes you all were talking about with Kristina and Molly. Well, I'm happy to see the actress playing Molly come into her own. Because she shaded the heck out of Kristina. Though again, it goes back to them writing Kristina as the never-do-well since Kate M came on. That said, I understood her frustration with Kristina who was clearly stalling. While I don't like that Molly IS overreacting, I loved the scenes because this has been building for a while so it was nice to see it explode. And both scenes could be seen.

Cool!!!

I don't know about that. re: interest. I have found (and said) the last two weeks have been decent. Even moreso than Y&R when it's usually the reverse for the Bell shows.

7-25 Well...Carly is going to Carly. lol. After that annoying Perez episode, this one was all kinds of intriguing. No nookie for Ava then lol. But I couldn't help, but think about Carly and G-Man from ATWT watching her with Wagger. lol. And now Carly done got arrested. Well...one way to keep Jason in town. Moreso now that Carly's secret should not be hanged over his head now. And OMG!! Are they really going to go there with Willow/Drew then? I was thinking it was winding down now that Nina knew, but I was pleasantly surprised. I was VERY surprised with all the bubble butts on display, too. I don't even like CD but I enjoyed him out of that dress jacket. Same CM always had it. So... Why is that Danny always gets the short end of the stick? And ugh at Molly and TJ. But that story needed to explode so her overreacting works.

I figured you would be. That is good to hear. Can't wait to get to his arrival.

OMG yes. The fight between Brooks and Taleen appeared to get audience's interest and the ratings reflected it a little bit. And now that they are getting to the meat aka Ayan vs Lesa...A week off? WHY? Way to kill the momentum indeed. She really is firing. Sorry, Lesa. And while I am firmly Team Lesa until further notice...even I side-eyed her when she said she did not understand the message. Moreso given the clip of Sara from next episode. As far as their friendship, Lesa said on WWHL that she regreted doing that because her and Sara were just coming to a place where they were having a good friendship when they were not close beforehand. She also owned what she did in the first place on WWHL so another reason still on her messy side. I'm honestly worried that we are not going to see what happened that would cause a rift between Stanbury and Sara given Sara's interview online a few weeks ago since she said those scenes were cut. And it explains more why her and Brooks are closer if I am remembering the interview currently. Which is just making me go grrrr cuz all of what I'm talking about is OFF-SCREEN and really needs to be ON screen. lol. Yaaaay for you on Taleen. lol. To be fair...Brooks herself has been saying that about herself since Season 1. Same. And I know I'm going to the movies next Tuesday, but will be making time to watch that night.

Facts. Hehe. The shade! But...also facts. OMG! I totally forgot about that. Anna and Laura slowly, but surely were setting up for the downfall of Sonny (at last?) BTS with the added fact of Ava knowing about his meds. That could have been such a great story, but alas.

7-26 I missed the latest Kyle v Summer showdown due to a tv prob. But I actually liked this episode. And Summer pulling a fast one on Kyle. And her smirk at the end while she was hugging Harrison at Kyle was delicious. Take that, prick! I liked Devon and Lily reaching a detente. I didn't want a repeat of the last time they were at odds...which was most of THIS storyline. So I was happy she was happy for him and Abby getting married. Which I hope leads to some drama or event. Genoa City is overdue. Billy RME. To think this whole storyline was about him changing the name. And the writers are so trolling us with the Lily comment about A-C. I personally feel Chancellor-Abbot would be better.

RHOM OH?
