Better games he could be playing.

Same. Never thought I would see the day.

I haven't really started last week yet, but you tell me Brooke couldn't even last one day???

You are not alone on seeing chemistry between Dex/Joss @carolineg. I have gone on record several times saying that I would rather have seen Joss/Cam/Esme than where it went (Heck, who is to say Esme/Cam won't happen once she gets out of the room), but I thought that the writers did a good job establishing Dex before they threw him at Joss. Joss ain't my favorite person, but look at her getting interesting around him. I do wonder what they are going to do with Cam though. I like Joss feels guilty. But not so guilty that she is stopping. It is giving me DAYS Austin/Carrie/Mike vibes.

Yeah part of my reasoning for my guesses was with that in mind. Since usually we find out these things online before SOD gets it in print. Usually.

I have no words. So much of who I became was when I took a year off from college to find myself and dove headfirst into rave culture. Though it was probably foreshadowed when my friend played for me GOD IS A DJ. I had always hoped they would get back together and tour but alas. This hurts.

12-20 I am literally hollering at Tucker getting caught with his pants down by Ashley. AGAIN. That's how she found out he was cheating on her with Diane. The irony. That said...I live for Jack vs Ashley scenes. ED really comes alive when she's sparring with PB and it shows. And she looked breathtaking doing it. And I have to agree with who said it above. TSJ and SC do have a bit of chemistry as they were talking about their past. I had forgotten about the wedding between them when SC was at the height of her Crazy Sharon days. Are they really about to do Adam/Chelesa/Billy? That's as bad as them putting Audra where Imani should be with Nate.

Jesus...and I'm in the middle of my workout..lol. Oh, I most definitely like my present.

Okay I'll play. 1. This one is a tough one. Hmmmmm. I would think that if they are a terror on set, but people are going out of their way to please them, it would be somebody major. So...given some of the tea here...I would go with Maurice Benard. 2. Again going back to the tea here, I would say Marcus Columa out right. He is in current story and around these parts he has been anti-vax on the sly. It not only explains their need to sub in other actors, but why he was let go. Especially after all the drama around IR and SB and their stance against NG. 3. Yeah, I would say Mark and Courtney as well. Especially after the Soap Awards this past year. 4. Sharon and Courtney. Have Alison done enough scenes for Michelle to feel threatened? 5. I figured this was Peter and Kristian out right.

SLC The most coherent they have EVER been. STILL...THE FOHs...ATE...THEM...UP!!! AKA REUNION LOOKS!!!

Why, yessir!!! You better poke.

SLC Yay for some (if little) downtime!!! I've been busy with work, finishing up the first draft on this novel, and dealing with the usual holiday blues/drama so I haven't had time to write. But like my soaps, I'm actually caught up on my viewing and goodness knows I have thoughts. Especially about these chicks. So I'm caught up on the San Diego trip to date. And it's been funny picking out the locations. Now I feel the ladies are being housed in the Point Loma location. It's kinda of the military, pier part of San Diego, but not like the BH ladies going to be in La Jolla which is the rich side of town. Of course, it IS a great location to get to just about anywhere in San Diego...and that's what I've observed here. You were in PACIFIC BEACH, Meredith, NOT Mission Beach BTW. lol. And I gasped to see the ladies in Hillcrest a BLOCK from my job. And RICH'S is one of my job's customers. And YES, I've been in the VIP section that they were in. And FLICKS is where the old men go to get the college boys, but their Sunday Funday IS something else as well. And they STILL haven't made it to my neighborhood yet at all per the midseason trailer so probably tonight. That said...I stick to what I said @Gray Bunny about the Heather takedown. I will say that I'm surprised that the second San Diego trip episode WAS about EVERYONE coming for Jen though. That was just craaaaazy. Not that Jen helped herself by being a little brat...and then not remembering that she attacked Fabulous Ice because she was having fun with Angie K. So Fabulous Ice was in her right to roast her at the dinner table. And then there was Heather spilling tea with Angie H. on HER 'friend.' I continue to see Heather setting up her role as Betrayed Friend and it's just been bad. Moreso because people are clocking her now doing it. But that dinner...Danna, Fabulous Ice, Heather...they did end up coming for Jen. And then Heather had to deflect onto Little Girl. It was mess. And then there was the third San Diego trip Episode. HOW DARE JEN WEAPONIZE SUICIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was not the first time Jen has pulled that trick (weaponizing her pain). I immediately thought about that S2 lunch date she had with Lisa when Lisa rightfully came for her and was not moving as Jen tried to verbally attack her. Seeing Lisa match her energy, Jen had to resort to crying about HER pain. It was so disgusting to watch. And it was disgusting to watch her do it to Heather and Lisa in order to get them to back up off her when they were in the right to be mad at her. Take some accountability. And then she did it again at the dinner in Hillcrest even though yes, Jen was right and Little Girl was pot stirring. Meanwhile, the beginnings of Jen vs Danna really started growing. But that episode really belonged to Heather vs Little Girl. And I am sorry, but I feel someone online said it best. Those cousins continue to act like unpopular girlfriends who get into the In Crowd and then turn on each other to get favor from the Queen Bee. Sadly...I could see both sides of those arguments. Little Girl acts like A LITTLE GIRL, BUT Heather really is not being nice when she speaks to her either. And lest we forget, this all started because Little Girl was being a little girl and being mad her cousin would not back her up on a lie. At this point...I love the chaotic mess. I wish the show could find a balance. What I liked about SLC was that it was giving slow burn soap opera its first season and then chaotic mess its second season. None of it is real, but yet its trainwreck quality was awe-strucking to watch. If only, it could balance the two and keep its momentum (cuz it should be about Jen and her coming trial and people coming for her with a petty feud here and there if anything) while being REAL. And I feel Mary managed to get them balanced into that. Now...it's just chaotic. Sometimes too much so. As for where the ladies. stand.. JEN. Wrong move. That's all she's been doing on this trip. Pouring a drink over Angie K's head. Throwing Angie's K's shoes off the boat. Attacking Lisa a la Kyle with Sutton this season of BH. It's telling that a dinner that appeared to be set up to expose Heather turned into a pile-up on her. Jen's slip is showing and it's not nice to see. HEATHER. Speaking of a slip showing, so is hers. Your own friend told on you. Though it felt like Danna was coming from a good place, it does not take away from the fact that Heather does talk out of both sides of her mouth. And for a viewer, it seems like to me, she has been more interested in setting up her exit strategy from Jen by befriending ALL the new girls as well as keeping the peace with the OGs since Jen is out the door. You cannot tell me that is not the basis of her friendship with Angie H...someone she knows Jen is not seeing in a good light. So to see that dinner at the house turn into an expose on Heather Gay was fun to see. It was just sad she was able to deflect. Then she wanted to be sour grapes at the other dinner. While she did not start with Little Girl, her stank attitude was not helping either. You would think she was over her, too. In her pursuit of Queen Bee status, I guess. But given that people are already clocking her slip showing, I do wonder if she gave herself the black eye. LISA. Flawless. I loved her giving it to Jen at the table during Dinner Number 1. And she is STILL waiting for that apology. lol. She has been a hoot this trip so far. And she must be in the right because Heather is STILL being jealous of her. Not even trying to be in too much mess. MEREDITH. Is supposed to be in charge of the fun. And there have been brief moments (that Mary flashback was hilarious), but she has kinda vanished this trip. Being the friend to Jen that Heather is supposed to be. LITTLE GIRL. Lint. If I didn't have a bday party to get ready for, I would probably watch. While I still miss Mary, it has not been boring due to its trainwreck nature. That said...they better not let anyone down with the Heather black eye reveal. Because the audience is definitely over SLC after that.

Hehe. Nope. I didn't say anything. Just think some of my fellow natives here in my area need to stop kidding themselves, but let me

Well color me shocked as well. I don't even recall seeing she was let go. Sad to hear since I love TB and it sounds like they are writing Ava how they should be writing her now.

Ooooo they let her take a picture. That is so cute. 😜 Oh, I saw her. But during filming, there was so many conflicting rumors over whether Jackie was demoted or full time or even showing up at all. So it's nice to have some confirmation.

Nothing wrong with a good hoe. If anything some men need to do it more, but let me mind my business. hehe. Them dirty bois. MMmmmm....YES PLEASE. Hehe. I think he just popped up on a page I go to today.

12-19 Well...well...look at that. That said...I was wondering what Twitter was all happy about last week. Now I know. LIZ IS FREE OF FINN!!! I was wondering why they kept focusing on that darn bottle. And that's not even Liz's best at telling a lie. The fact that Finn fell for it hook, line, and sinker says more about him than it does her. God, he was such a sucky person to her over his jealousy over Nik and I cannot wait to see his face once he realizes it was a lie. And look at Liz continuing to be oh so soap messy. You have to go almost back to the 'John Doe/Drew' days to get her to be this crafty. I love seeing RH working her magic and of course she is struggling with her conscience, too. I do hope the stuff with her father isn't over though. I DO like she is getting continued focus. Speaking of focus...good to be right. I said as soon as Spencer got out of jail, there would be ANOTHER obstacle thrown in his and Trina's way. And here we go with Rory's death. I was with @AbcNbc247 and wanted to see the triangle go a little more of a direction, but...I'll live. Though I did roll my eyes, but not surprised. Saddened a bit because I FINALLY saw relationship chemistry between TA and AC versus just sparring partner chemistry if that makes sense. Why is it that JS always give good scorned man heat? His scenes post-breakup (and the writers finding a way to get him shirtless...fatherhood is looking reeeeeEEEEally good on him) with Brooklyn were great, hot, and brutal all at the same time. I was literally about to ask where has Phyllis gone? So it's been good to see her pop up. And Oooooo at Crafty Carly being back in the house and manipulating things so Drew does not find out about Willow. It feels like forever since Carly has been in schemer mode and LW has been great.

Some of us STILL call her that. VERY.

12-19 Lord...Bill...Well, DD is acting his butt off...that's for sure. How can he be standing there with tears in his eyes BEGGING Katie to take him back when he did not hesitate to run to Brooke before the divorce was even done. Thankfully, Carter heard him. And I LOVE how Carter and he stay sizing each other up now every time they are in the same room. MORE please. Which is a maybe going by Bill and that sword necklace. SHEILA!!! I was wondering. lol. But I don't know where she can go from here. Except to Genoa City for Y&R's 50th. I still cannot believe that Taylor and Brooke walked out on Ridge after reading him down.

NJ Annnnnd IT'S HERE!!!!!!!!! SEVEN Housewives and no Jackie.

THIS.

OH, LOOK AT WHO IT IS!!!! *waves @AlexElizabeth*

Le sigh. Way, waaaay too young. While I know she's been in so many things and had many great moments, the moment that always stood out for me as I grew older was her in the NO DOUBT video 'Hey Baby' as the one having the shot contest with one of the members...back in my day when I was King of the Shots. Ah college days... And with some development with Epiphany going on, too. RIP

RHoDubai Sounds like Filming for Season 2 is starting soon...and someone (or two...?) might be out. The rumor at the moment is Lesa though. I hope it is not true if only because I was looking forward to her rivalry with Caroline for Queen Bee. NJ Sounds like the trailer might be dropping soon.
