  1. Amen. Can't wait to see more of it.
  2. LOL. I can't believe that of all the Fox Force Five, Ex Soap Opera Star is the only one with her marriage completely intact. Well, people say that the fact that RHOP is having of its best seasons ever so far now that Eric isn't there while NY...which had a great freshman start IMHO...is having one of the worst season ever does make a person wonder if Eric IS the problem. Thank you! I'm growing to love the individual scenes for sure. And there...it's clear that Eric is at least smart enough to have continuing stories going on. And none of them are boring. I'm soooo in love with the Abe/Mel bromance, and I was happy to see it was not a one-off. And I do feel that is new ground for RH to explore with someone like Abe because it does happen. My old friend groups are littered with them. And I too am getting used to see Sai and Ubah around each other and Sai around Erin less. And it's bringing out so much fun in both Sai and Ubah. And yes on Rebecca. This was the first episode she truly showed her personality, but it made me wonder how much has been on the cutting room floor due to the party being a flashback. I totally understand re: to watch or not. Like I said, I want to see Ubah vs Brynn because it seems to be getting firmly established from what I can tell. Now though I'm side-eyeing.
  3. 11-7 What was I just saying about Frank finding any way to get a guy shirtless on this show? I didn't mind though. Looks like Curtis has been working out. A meh episode. First one in a bit actually. It's been funny to see Sonny just sitting with people and the focus not be on him. Wagger who? lol. But first it has been with Dante. And now he's doing it with Alexis. And just Alexis being in grief was the only thing I didn't mind in this episode. Oh...and Lucas/Ryan was the other highlight. It was nice to see them bond. So I guess if the plan is to slowly have them come back together, Carly will be the roadblock. I wouldn't mind that. Carly is overdue to act up. Shockingly Sidwell is going on me. And we know I am not living for any moment where Anna has to beg period.

  5. Well he's aging well. Hehe.
  6. Well it helped my supervisor is an old school OTH who reminded me day of. Gotta love them YT Notifications.
  7. I have said the same re: Sharon is being drugged for a while now. Moreso after Mariah revealed that Sharon has been taking her meds. It was the only thing that could make sense. So I'm assuming these two are behind it and I would like to see how and hope the reveal makes sense. I would love it if it was Daisy. And it makes sense as well. Heck, I'm surprised Sheila hasn't come looking for her other grandchild yet. And before she left, Daisy was dragging Phyllis a few times which was a bonus.
  8. I do wonder if beside Ed Scott's return having immediate impact, if I am liking it as well because Y&R have new writers in house, too. Ah!!
  9. SLC Well, I finished last week. I thought the episode was okay. A good start to this cast trip. It was nice to have the husbands around to give some humor. And watching the ladies try to be mean girls before trying to mend fences was silly, but fun silly. And I enjoyed Bob gathering Lisa all the way together. All Heather had to do was take some accountability and she would have been on the trip as well. But nooooo she's the HBIC, and can never do that. So out she was. And what was the first thing she did? She went to Lisa and Meredith and told HER version of what happened at Bob's...not the REAL version. It was just as disrespectful that Lisa even called Heather while on that trip. Well, she could have. Just do it in her room later on. I loved Angie K called out the double standard of it because it's true. If anyone of them had done it to Lisa on one of Lisa's trips, they would have never heard the end of it. So Bob gathered. Production rolled back the receipts on each and every time Bob mentioned that she's been there for Lisa. And now Lisa can't even have her old friend's back. I was with Bob when she said go with God if she thinks Heather is a better friend than Bob is because Bob is not a yes person. I really love none of Lisa's techniques worked on Bob so she had no choice, but to backpedal. Cuz Bob laid it all out. Did Lisa need a visual aid? lol. Let me get into tonight.
  10. There's a reason I do the Sweep Threads asking will be Sweeps...or Sleeps here. It's like a running joke at this point. But I agree that when JG does still have moments when things are going good. And they will be that way for a while. His writing just errs and flows too much. I would say before now...the last time the episodes had any flow that hit the whole canvas was during Ashley's storyline once everyone started to realize she had alters and hit another level of flow when a third of the cast hit Paris. And since Ashley's storyline climaxed (for now?) in Paris, the flow to the writing slowly left again. So it's good to see the momentum again. Oh? Why not if you don't mind me asking.
  11. Ha! When Hades freezes over maybe.
  12. Same. Who knew it would turn into Must See TV. And IN November Sweeps. lol.
  13. 11-13 Loose note...YOU BETTA SING, ANA!!!! Oh, how I've missed Loren Lott!!! Where do I even start? Other than the dresses. LOL!!! I was worried when I saw pictures of Nikki's dress, but seeing it on my screen...that top works perfectly with that. And blue is clearly becoming MTS's color. Other highlights were Ana's, Audra's (YOU GO, GIRL!!!), Victoria (love the ponytail!), Ashley, Diane (I know she didn't crash hehe), and of course the wedding girl Abby. So sweeping camera angles in the openings are really going to be a thing. lol. I thought it was very interesting that they started this episode just like they started their last episode milestone episode with Abby in that room. Really funny since that last time she was marrying Chance. And how they had the ranch set up and used space was really good. And that angle when Victor interrupted Devon, Lily, Nate, Yolanda, and Ana with the camera over the table...mmmm. And to see so many of the cast was cute. I see you in that suit, Josh Morrow. 😜 I too enjoyed Jack and Ashley talking anew. It's been forever. And of course, Ashley will be there talking sense. EAT HIS ASS, VICTOR. EAT...HIS...ASS. I'm so serious. lol. Thank you for wiping that smug look off Billy's face like I expected him to. Him telling Billy to swallow his ego for his NIECE...YAASSSS!!! CHECK HIM. lol. But I loved that whole scene where Billy pulled Lily aside to warn her, Jill wants in, she and Victor exchange a look...that Billy and Lily catch...that was well-executed. Viva La Jill!!! She was still looking fierce today. And just the tale that JW was telling with her face as she was talking to Billy at Chancellor was such a masterclass of acting. You could tell Jill was so conflicted on what to say to him...that Victor had won...that Billy was fired. Even though he did everything she wanted. I didn't feel a thing for Billy, but I felt plenty for Jill in that moment. And of course, Jill would not be Jill if she didn't get into it with Esther...who also looked good. And AHA!!!!!!!!!! If Sharon lost her phone, then WHO is sending Phyllis texts? And how the episode played out it COULDN'T be Sharon. Meaning I'm probably right and someone is drugging her!!!!!!!! Which probably means that she did not kill Heather. Finally a turn in this storyline!!! And yes, I loved the Neil AND Dru mention.
  14. Hahaha!!! Just what I said about the above re: my comment to Liberty...parallels! We both agree about the hands. It's the who that I feel is the problem. In any case...I see what you mean.
  15. NY Like I said last week, I figure whether this was going to be a good season or a bad season was how they handled the bombshell from the S2 trailer. The scandal of someone being pregnant outside of who they were with. And...? In a word: backlash. This show was already on a slippery slope with OG NY fans. Not to mention fans who liked the reboot. Not to mention those fans who watch RHOP and KNOW Eric. So the very idea of a whole storyline that was and has been promoted as MAJOR for this group being a FAKE storyline? Oooooo...even Andy Cohen was pissed on WWHL afterwards. Worse on worse for me...it was all of that on top of what I said last week. The individual scenes continued to give. Jessel with her mother and talking about Pavit. The growing Abe/Mel friendship and Abe being comfortable as a straight man to discuss on camera his exploring his sexuality...I gasped cuz...I do think he's cute. I admit it. lol. But good radar. Seriously, though we even got to see Ubah walking about her life finally. And the mini-groups are really where this particular group does fine. Because the running joke of what Brynn does for a living or Sai's hunger or Erin's events having little food will never get old. But HERE'S my issue... 1) So the person pregnant who has been a non-factor since she appeared this season. It would be something if Rebecca was giving. But she hasn't. And Brynn has been trying with her since the season started. But...she gives nothing. Funny since she was FINALLY sassy this episode, but too little, too late. Add on the fact the trailer made it seem like it was one of the ACTUAL girls and everyone that cares about this show...feel cheated for even trusting the narrative. 2) The filming of a whooooooole event where this all took place that was shown AS A FLASHBACK. That's what REALLY made me livid. It looked like a fun event. Everyone was dressed to the nines. And in the narrative on the show it would have fitted because Brynn has been pot stirring with everyone. And she had been digging into Rebecca already. And Rebecca finally showing sass meant there could have finally been some conflict. But...the whole event was off camera, and the audience found out secondhand. AGAIN. So the audience feels cheated. AGAIN. 3) Did I mention that this episode was a big prank...unless next week continues from this week's TBC and reveals it was a set-up to expose Brynn as the pot-stirrer she is. And revealing that it was a potential prank with the quick cut at the end??? After all this maneuvering throughout the episode...yeeeeah NO. NOW if this was Erin's way of exposing Brynn...a good theory since Production clearly did not have her back this episode with all the rollbacks they did on her lying...then that might be the ONLY saving grace and sets up Ubah vs Brynn. But sadly, this episode successfully destroyed ANY grace the audience was giving these new girls by these games. I mean...people are actually LIVID. And it does not at all seem like it's in a controversial fun-got people talking-gossipy good way. ERIN. Well, I guess announcing you're pregnant ahead of the episode where your husband is going to lay it all out on his sexuality is a shrewd move indeed. I shouldn't be shocked, but I was still shocked he was so candid about that because that does happen when you are in your 20s and in college. And I really love how Abe and Mel are bonding which allowed Erin and Raquel to bond as well. I found it cute. Now as for her stirring the pot by her telling Rebecca's 'business'...that's the thing. It does not surprise me coming from her. She's been doing this. So Rebecca yelling at her was accurate. But if it was all another one of her pranks...poor taste. UBAH. They are going to wind up proving Ubah right about pigeons. Because look at this whole episode. No wonder she did not feel like being a part of the game and stayed on the sidelines cuz why? Outside of that, it was good to see her out and about. JESSEL. One of the only people giving us a storyline. Her and her mother are always fascinating to watch. And now those signs of issues with Pavit last week appear to have started to grow. I did not like she believed Brynn's lie about Jenna though. Hopefully, the slight rift between her and Jenna now is a fixable one. SAI. Still giving me all the comic relief that I could ever need. I did not like that someone Eric took the rumor drama between seasons when Sai did the interview where she called Rebecca boring and condensed it down to two minutes of dialogue. But at that point if I remember the interview correctly, she had said that no one was doing anything on film that was anythng. This episode being a case in point. Now that I think about it...could this being cut out and the party with Rebecca vs Brynn being cut out be because of Rebecca's status as a Scientologist? Hmmm. RAQUEL. I loved watching her and Mel's rapport with Erin and Abe. And I would love to try one of those slutty punches. lol. JENNA. I'm so disappointed in her. I'm going to need her to let her other Gemini out and check Brynn. Granted, she does not know what Brynn said yet, but when she does, check her. Brynn is making her out to be a bad friend. And that's just not cool in this group that already have a bad case of Telephone. And then Brynn threw a ball at Jenna's face. NO, MA'AM. I know it's a game, but she totally did that purposely. BRYNN. BITCH. lol. The telling Jessel that Jenna called her a basic bitca (and Production proving she did not). Her running around telling Rebecca's 'tea.' Her starting stuff with Rebecca period. Her and the spit. She was all kinds of disgusting. Second season curse has struck her, and I don't think she's ever coming out of it. Those are my thoughts. I actually am not sure if I want to continue to watch next week though I still want to see the catalyst of Brynn vs Ubah...in case this was not the catalyst. Just...ugh.
  16. Hehe. You know I watched the trailer as soon as it dropped cuz...OTH...hehe.
  17. Yeah...Bravo DID heavily limit where it would show...but by now I want to say it's been shared enough on Twitter that you might be able to find out that is not limited by location. My apologies. Yeah...Bravo DID heavily limit where it would show...but by now I want to say it's been shared enough on Twitter that you might be able to find out that is not limited by location.

  18. Ha!!! I can think the name RAY WISE and not think of my beloved SAVANNAH.
  19. That's very interesting tea to have given where Aidan's story has gone since then and what we know about cut scenes with Aidan. Hands? The hard reset came with the New/Old Writers coming in. I'm just making an observation. And with said observation, I gave a loose theory which I made sure to emphasis is a LOOSE theory. Because beside the obvious petty in Kelly M's exit storyline to date, it does seem some stories are having bizarre turns when these New/Old Writers were originally perfectly fine with either YAY for having stories they were originally attached to them before they were fired or just having stories...that were elevated by PM or introduced by him...vanished. Again...just my opinion from what I'm seeing. No. They were in a scene with Liz and Jason together at the hospital and it was so weird to see. I want to say that it was the first of Sam's last scenes with Jason but I could be wrong. But their past was not acknowledged, though there was tension in that foursome. Same.
  20. *gasps* Now hold up one minute...who sent that? Watching now and I completely agree.
  21. Taoboi replied to YRBB's topic in Off Topic Lounge
