It's also part of the reason Angel is failing. hehe. Part of the reason I thought about it the other day was because of Stacey and Ms. Bob (and honorable mention to NY's Raquel) who I still count as newbies since they did air at the beginning of this year I believe. I haven't got back to SLC, but I felt for the most part, Ms. Bob did good in her freshman season (and so far in her 2nd season, she's been eating Lisa up alive from where I stopped). As for Stacey...oh my God, watching her weave her way out of her mess from last season has been hilarious as heck. She has not lost any of the fans yet because she's been so entertaining. She's definitely seems in on the joke and brings the audience in with a charm that others could never. From your lips to God's ears. Not my favorite season of RHOM, but I do feel that Nicole was missed. When she did appear, things just clicked back into place. She really was the anchor and also showed how much wealth whispers, not scream. Stephanie...well...she got Alexia to work so I can give her that. But I'm not sure if I like her. And YES to the Real Housewives of London. I am going to have to find a way to watch at some point. Still mad that hater got the link blocked. YES also to the Sophomores. They are peaking and I'm loving it.

It was. 2014 just as bad that by the end of it I had stopped.

That ending was EVERYTHING...music and all. Do we have the following episode anywhere?

I do wonder re: Gizelle as anchor might have to do with Production still covering a bit for her. Especially since Monique let the cat out of the bag about how their sit-down was edited down. I wish they would just let Gizelle be, flaws and all, so the audience can have an honest opinion of her. Because I have enjoyed and actually relate to everything happening with her, her father, and the will drama. As for Karen...Gizelle did a great job of keeping Karen's presence alive that when she appears (with Andy Cohen to boot), it is going to feel like she was never gone and just on a trip. As much as I miss Candiace, it's not noticeable she's gone. But Karen? It's giving 90210 Brenda not being there and still so much story revolved around her for a minute and also how easily GH's Brenda could show up tomorrow on that show and she is still oh so connected to nearly everyone on the canvas. Karen is still too centered, but not so centered they can't move on without her which is great for the show. They can have it both ways. How interesting. I am surprised that until previous years, BravoCon was very low-key this year. What is going on over there?

Well, Christine...DAY-UMMM...WOOF with the lace and the curls. NINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg LEANNA LOVE, TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a spoil of riches!!! I am happy I'm off!!!

Speak on it!! Amen. You're right.

OMG!!! KAY VS KATHERINE!!! THE DIRECTION!! THE EXTRAS MAKING A BREAK FOR IT. THE MUSIC CUE!! YASSS!!!! What we were discussing in the Best Rivalry of All Time thread on FULL DISPLAY.

Malcolm!!! LYNNE!!! Was that a full diva body turn from Nikki with superb camera angle? YES, PLEASE!

THIS. So night and day. This music cue they just played between Victor and Christine. Shivers. The fact I'm watching live and have no desire to watch when it goes back to same ole, same ole tomorrow/next week is a testimony to how superb old school Y&R was. I could go on about the camerawork all day. And just seeing everyone that I know and love/love to hate is great. And good that you get to get a taste of it. Same. It's time.

Megan and OriginalTony!!! Is everyone is this episode??? WOOOOW

Another week done. And I continue to say the same thing that I've been saying. I love how bingeable the show is at the moment. And I also love what I mentioned before about shifting. I didn't like Korte and CVS during the first year, but they seem to have found their rhythm during Year 2. And they are shifting their main story for the week nicely. This week the drama was back on Willow and Drew with stories around it. And outside of no Laura...I liked it. I liked that Anna is back of course. And the story is getting a build. I am assuming that if that annoying Pascal is here that she is on Wyndermere (is Lucas going to find her?) and that Sidwell is again behind something. And now they are teasing that Faison might actually be alive? Hmmm. I do hope Anna beats Pascal's a$$ once she's free, but I do wonder if 'Sidwell is behind everything' is going to be a rewrite at some point. I am also shocked that after so much non-movement in Willow and her trial how they started to move again so swiftly. And I liked that it was allowed to build up throughout the week. And I actually gained some respect for the ADA who did good against Alexis. I was shocked. I loved Tracy back and having Michael's back, her reunion with BLQ, and especially her scenes with Ned. She is playing Q Matriarch to the hilt. That said...can't have the good without the bad. Just NO to Carly and Val. And the fact they are playing those scenes like some sitcom will never sit right with me. Carly can do bad all by herself thank you very much. Sidenote...I really loved the Jason/Joss scene where they compared notes though. Good to see the Five Poppies storyline hasn't been completely forgotten. Also a NO is Nathan/Lulu. Mind you, I don't mind them having a friendship. After all, Lulu IS Maxie's BFF. However, it just feels like slanted writing. And if they are willing to write for them...you know who they should be willing to and easily write for? DANTE AND LULU. I loved their scenes this week and goodness knows Dante currently needs a moment when he's not being written as a jerk. That did it. And of course, Brad has to be mentioned. It was just a matter of time when Britt came back. Now...Brad is here. And I'm already seeing that Brad/Lucas/Marco triangle coming. And Brad and Britt are already up to shenanigans.

TRICIA!!!! Just all the faces! Ryan in his finest. Neil! This was during the Diane divorce, wasn't it? Christine! Victor in his prime. Hm. Uh oh...Jill with a little pony tail!!!

Heather Tom's Victoria!!! being VICTORIA!!! hehe. The Channcellor mansion with all of this space!!!

OLIVIA!!!!

Wait! A classic from 1998??? Let me watch this live...well what I can cuz...CBS. DIVAS.

Exactly!!! If they were not reptitive, triangles could be good. And that said...fashion wars (especially with all that space at the new studio) is where it's at.

Happy New Year!!! Looking forward to more good moments with you. :)

That 6 for Rebecca felt like less. Just smh. I am happy with GF's 10 though. And overall of 2025...I never thought I would see the day that overall Number 1 was not Steve, Laura, and/or Maurice.

She did. Dani and Pamela ragged on her for it, too.

Same. B&B is at its best when the focus is on rival fashion houses.

LOL!!! I saw Katie's wig and immediately thought of you. Happy New Year!!

While I have enjoyed the season so far without her, there STILL is something missing. And I feel that something is Karen. And the fact that for the first third of the season, it feels like Karen has a storyline (thanks to Gizelle and Cookie) even though she is not there reveals that. But your questions? Ooooo yes. The very reason that unlike another inmate named Jen Shah, Karen has built-in story that will enrich the current canvas even more so even more reason for her return. It is almost perfectly timed. Will she fit in...Gizelle and Cookie ensure she will by keeping her presence this season by much present. Has she evolved? Her main storyline for next season. How will she react to Wendy? Storyline Number 2. ;) And now that Wendy has her legal problems, how will Karen react? THAT will be the REAL tea. Ooooo good. And given Stacey vs Gizelle is still a thing, another wrinkle in current dynamic. I think Karen will thrive as well. It was too perfectly timed for her return before the Wendy mess. And now it's moreso.

Ha! Fingers crossed.

That's cuz it was one of RC's ha-ha-wink moments.

That was an adorable moment, too. You would think someone would cross-promote it.
