Taoboi

I bet.

OMG...YES!!!

Yeah, I too would prefer Imani, but I do give credit where credit is due. For the reason listed here, is why I like ZS as an actress. And while I like what she is doing, my issue with Audra is the same...it's to the actress's skills, she is doing a lot of great with so little. But eventually can they give her substantial story? Well, technically, they had that by revealing she was Noah's ex and they had a baby. But they dropped that and the potential triangle with Noah and Allie. Now...if this mess with Kyle and Summer leads back around to Kyle vs Noah vs Chance...well...

But a good tease. Go, Daddy!!

Mmmmmmm Well, save a horse and ride a... That but--I mean, back! hehe.

THIS.

As appears to be my catchphrase this month...worth the wait.

Hell-HO!!! He can leave them socks ON. WOOF!!!!

Yeah...but I admit that I was liking the amount of pretezel turning Summer had to go through to keep it a secret from Kyle. But that might be because of AL's acting. I definitely been over Giggly Heffa's storyline since she revealed herself to Summer. Same. The only other thing I would have added was a Sharon/Nikki scene from that storyline.

I'll take that. lol.

Sorry for my lateness, but I agree about VR as well. And as for the bold...I just can't help, but think about the eerie coda when Sharon was writing what seem like a suicidal note back when it seem like she was being turning into a promiscuous klepto, and the ending ended making the viewers wonder if Sharon was really going to kill herself. The camera angles, the music, and the fact SC was selling it. That has always stood out for me during that whole period where Sharon was getting bad writing. Amen. I admit...when I first saw this comment...I got shivers thinking back to the end of JG's DAYS run which is when I stopped watching because it just got too dark...and I like dark, but... Which is a shame because I rarely feel like she phones it in. Like when she arrived at the ball on Adam's arm and did the oh so dramatic diva mask reveal in front of the cameras. It was a small thing since at that point she was just being so background character during the Nick/Sally/Adam storyline, but she was giving.

RHOA Now many pages back, I know you all had a bit of a discussion about this, but let me go ahead and add my pieces. Because while I have not been posting every week due to a lot going on, I have managed to make it all the way to Sunday's episode. I felt...like I just said about OC...that last season was a transitional season. I if I remember correctly, that last season was very much similar to Season 5. And I believe I hoped that this current season, now that everyone is gelling would turn up a la Season 6. So I find it funny that is totally giving light Team Pretty vs Team Beasts from Season 7. I feel it's been a slow burn, but an interesting slow burn so I'm not getting why people thought it was giving boring. I felt it was a nice build and the last few episodes have been like a domino effect as everyone was working. They should not have spared Marlo at the reunion last season. That I can blame Andy for. It does make me wonder what will happen this year since it's clear that this reunion might be Season 7's return and a good free-for-all. I'm looking forward to Kandi vs Sanya. She has been nothing, but a flip floppity bitca (c) Beyonce Knowles and I want Kandi to get her good. So...my thoughts for now... KANDI. Well, people wanted to see Kandi activated. HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I don't think she's been this much centered since Season 9. But she did not lie in interview...ShebySheree, Fake Sanya, Marlo, this Courtney chick...everyone's coming for her. And to think that I wanted a Marlo vs Kandi feud since Season 4. But this...this has the potential to get vicious when I just wanted a petty fun feud like ShebySheree vs Kenya. And just seeing Red Haired Kandi back in action has been great to watch. That means Marlo will have to do a LOT (and no, not chicken KFC) to get back into her good graces. And I know we all know Kandi can hold a mean grudge. Meanwhile, it was shocking to Hades freeze over and she called out Mama Joyce. I never thought I would see the day. MARLO. Trash. And can't even keep her story straight at all. And the episode where Production proved with receipts that all she said about Kandi not supporting her was BS...chef's kiss. She is coming across so far as being a clown and then wants to play victim. I enjoyed Kandi, Kenya, and Drew coming for her at the Gucci party. SHEBYSHEREE. Smh. I keep hoping for her. I keep enjoying her delusions. But gurrrll...as usual she's riding with the wrong team (c)Nene Leakes. That said...the growing feud with her and Kandi...well...is at least giving petty fun feud. DREW. She has not been in it much, but I love seeing her business her brand and not being so gaslit this season. So far at least. Making a video. Focusing on her music. Defending herself against Marlo...which is giving a mini-feud. And we know I will always live for her vs ShebySheree. SANYA. ...is slowly turning into the Teddi MellencampTerri DeMarco of this group. I love that slowly, but surely Kenya, Kandi, and Drew are all clocking how not on their side she truly is. Drew already knew from last season, but watching the others. I just know they are going to get her at the reunion. And she STILL has not step up her read game like Drew did after her first season and just like Porsha eventually did. Oh, well. KENYA. IS...THE...MOMENT. I know others are waiting for her to turn up...and she has started...but I have enjoyed that they have been showing more of Kenya's business side. More of Kenya's being a mother. Her only misstep...for me...has been even considering making another baby with Marc...though I do understand. And I love how she stays having Kandi's back. Kenya as supporting and STILL having presence? Who would have thought? Looking forward to watching Kandi vs ShebySheree. But so far, I like the season.

OC And speaking of catch-up...I FINALLY watched and finished last season last night. Like I said about RHOA last season, last season was such a transitional season. I'm actually sorry to have Tamra IN, Noella OUT because I am curious to see where they could have gone after that reunion. And same for that season's Jen since she was in trouble with the law AND divorcing Ryan (or however he spelt it). So having them back would have gotten some drama going. Yeah, Heather's return flopped after a strong start. And then it turned into everyone vs Shannon who I was glad really did not pay anything of them anything, but dust. Thankfully, Noella stepped it up with her rivalry with Heather, her friendship with Shannon, and her continuing to be a hot a%^ mess with everyone else. I would have love to see what she did next. But I believe I was one of her few fans here. In fact, I found the last half of the season to be very easy and breezy . And the Aspen trip. Oooo at the dinner fight where a gang up on Shannon turned into everyone vs Noella who was just having Shannon's back. That said...some quick thoughts. HEATHER. I was happy to have her back. But however, it became clear that she was running and editing herself just a little tooo much. So I loved that she was activated by her feud with who was not a pushover. SHANNON. So came out smelling like roses. Every time one of them heffas came for her, she rose above it. And just her being by herself she still gave a lot on screen to keep my interest. And I loved her growing friendship with Noella and how they had each other's backs right up to the reunion. And I loved she had Gina's number. EMILY. A necessary evil. Why? She I found was very subtle, but VERY good at her pot stirring. I'm sure I said when this was airing that I was annoyed at how her and Gina kept throwing the rock and hiding their hands. But by the end of the season, there was some relatable complexity going on in that whole Shannon/Noella/Emily/Gine dynamic that I was curious to see where it went. Especially, since Gina was clearly getting jealous of the Shannon/Noella friendship and Emily was slowly leaning in Shannon's direction. GINA. Weak sauce. I loved her glow up...only for her to turn into Heather's lapdog and trying to throw Shannnon under the bus. And then she kept trying to do anything to start mess with Shannon as if she was Marlo over on RHOA, but...more BORING. I hope it's true that Tamra is coming for her in the new season cuz over her. JEN. I will miss Shirtless Ryan. But she started to get more comfortable. But like Elizabeth the season before...alas. NOELLA. A hot a&* mess...and will be missed. I guess it was nice to hear she had some kind of a happy ending at the reunion. A good season.

RHOM Well, first of all, I'm happy that I get to FINALLY see Season 5 of it. July 5th can't get here soon enough for me. That said...I've been enjoying all the pictures and videos from their last cast trip in Mexico City. And that Adriana is BRINGING it. Ice out who? Not her. It's like the more her hair grows darker, the more in she is. I definitely am hoping that Guerdy will be okay. Hahahahaha!!!! I just posted that and fist pumped. CANNOT...WAIT!!!! Yeah, LAMDC definitely exposed those cracks in that marriage. And Carlos King defintiely tried to make use of the fallout of them leaving that show. I am sorry for her and him since I liked them.

SC has almost always been on point. If anything has let her down, it's been the writing. Same for RH as Liz over on GH. And yes...regardless of what JM thinks...she is his BEST acting partner.

6-1 Poor Taggert. It's funny how the paternity test has been dragged out, but I liked how it came together to that moment. He kept such a strong stance. Then his breaking down in the elevator...my heart went out to him. I rolled my eyes at Victor's will reading...so very much like Helena's video appearance. Speaking of that since I was not around...I thought his end was anticlimactic after such a slow, but nice May Sweeps build. Now if it is leading to new story for Anna and apparently Nickolas...well...we'll see... Davis Girls Recast...I'm actually liking Molly's recast...I feel like she has HM's vibe completely. While I like Kate Mansi and she appears to be giving a bit of AL's Kristina, I feel like the writers are using the recast to change her character at the same time. And it just seems so weird to throw them both into bigger story when people still need to get used to them. I loved Holly's latest return and how Tracy's return was roped in that. I loved that we had a brief Holly/Robert/Diane triangle cuz Scorpio...lol. Speaking of Tracy's return, I love, love, LOVE how she got Brook Lyn/Chase back together cuz SAY ANYTHING...hehe. But I have loved how she has slowly wormed her way into several storylines and I don't want her to go so good to see her growing roots...and HATEESSS Carly. And what a way to start June 1!!!! I see AC has been doing HIS squats. LOL!!!! Welcome back, Swimming Pool!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6-9 I've been peeking in here and there and it sounds like the Cameron's return appears to be rushed. But...watching it...I found it's been keeping my interest. And I don't find it rushed. Perhaps it's the fact it's focused on Sharon...who needed something to do. Perhaps it was those awesome flashbacks for those who didn't see all the storyline...which I was one of them though I knew the story. I only wished they included a Nikki/Sharon flashback from their bickering days a la Katherine/Jill. In any case, I felt it's build nicely. First, the gifts. Then the reveal. Then the appearances and the town graudally finding out. Then the stalking...whether it was Sharon herself, Faith, Sally. And the creep factor build through every encounter. And finally....of course...Nick (looking puffy hot in that short sleeve shirt) vs Cameron. And now...Cameron framed Nick. Heck, it's shocking me that I'm invested in it. Something I CANNOT say for Giggly Heffa. Ugh at her arrogance. I do like the reveal of her being alive has been done gradually among the town. And I was YASSSSSSSSSSSSSS to see the return of Vengeful Christine. They can go right on back to bringing that rivalry back between the Bug and Phyllis. I have no sympathy for her no matter how they try to make one sympathize with her. I'm more Poor Daniel for having to deal with her. The only good thing about it all is how it's setting up new dynamics within the Abbott family. The unraveling of the Summer/Kyle marriage. And I've been WAITING for Kyle to realize how long Summer knew she was alive. And I was happy to see that MM did not disappoint. I knew AL would do a great job so it was awesome. Meanwhile, you have Ashley taking steps to go against Diane setting scheme team (Jack/Diane) vs scheme team (Ashley/Tucker). And I've been enjoying the comedy of errors that has been Ashley/Tucker and the 'engagement.' Still fast forwarding through Billy/Chelsea. Enjoying looking at hot Nate. But is that really Audra's endgame? Cuz rme.

6-9 I admit I was sad to see the end of the Brooke/Taylor friendship. Well, it was fun for me while it lasted. And it lasted longer than expected so I'm good. And those were some surprisingly good scenes. And I liked how they are gradually building up to the Rome remote. I expect it to be as good as the Finn/Steffy reunion in terms of the beautiful scenery. But other than that...not much going on.

LOL!!!!! But Jeff answered it. So still around.

THIS. Exactly! Which is a shame because Imani was already set (with Jill's admiration, too) to do everything that's been going on with Nate, Devon, and Elena even more than Audra was...who should have been around Noah and Allie to give them something to do. Heck, just the fallout from Devon/Amanda/Abby...if Imani was still around...she's the type that would do the payback that Amanda wouldn't do and be a thorn in Abby's side. Same.

I'm happy to have Faith back and all, but...WOW. That said...Sharon...YOU...BETTA...WERK!!!!

Well I knew my birthday week was going to be dramatic...and it has not disappointed. Sadly. But...I only wanted 3 things...to finish writing my latest novel, to dance, and to be with who I wanted to be with (with shots) on my actual birthday. I got those three. So no matter how the rest of this weekend goes (cuz I'm sadly not making it to Garbage or Janet Jackson this weekend...BUT going out dancing again hehe)...at least I can say I got my 3 things. PS. Told said person they were one of those bday things. Hopefully a semi-happy ending is in the wings given this year is the anniversary of a lost love...and reminders actually are everywhere this year.

6-5 Oh,, look!!! Hollis!!! Anyone let @Soapsuds know. I'll say this much...I'm not against Taylor being crafty. I liked KA's scheming version of Billie on DAYS so how she's playing it has shades of that which I don't mind. Though I was hoping they were finally about to go there with Deacon/Taylor rather than her playing matchmaker between Deacon and Brooke. That said...I've been keeping up and while I've over everyone attacking Hope that ISN'T Liam, the actors and actresses have been good in those scenes. I like when Liam and Hope fight cuz they be kinda vicious funnily enough. Oh, look RJ shirtless. Other than that...that's all I got. How cute!!! The same as the birthday of one of my great loves...might being 4 days after. hehe.

OC TAGLINES!!!! Tamra and Shannon for the win. I did like New Girl's and Heather, too.

Yeah, I remember it being a gradual buzz with people because it was truly a word of mouth (and in the cases of us too young...sneak a peek when the parents weren't around). Under the radar Season 1. A little bit of notice in Season 2. And by Season 3 it was hitting its stride. I liked its gritty look as well.
