8-24 TAYLOR BETTER READ!!!! lol. Lord, I was so over Brooke getting all up in Thomas vs Hope and then wants to act like Taylor is just horrible for the Ridge kiss. Ridge started the kiss. I wish Taylor had thrown that in her face rather than 'we were swept up in the moment.' But she gave good and KA so did such a great job. Deacon!!! smh. But...a Deacon thing to do, taking Sheila's money. I admit that they can do comedy with them for now. But I wonder what Sheila's next move will be since everyone thinks she's dead and it's not like she is getting close to Finn any time soon. Is it wrong I rolled my eyes at Donna already making herself at home at the Forrester mansion? Such a waste of a story in way to not see Quinn give a little blowback.

RHOA First of all, I'm happy that Bravo clarified whether this coming Sunday was the finale or not. I cannot believe that they did not say it in the promo for next week. Now let's see if they advertise it. I swear...it feels like they want this season...which has been pretty good...to fail. Second of all...this episode was pretty good. Though it definitely has a feel of winding down. Kandi focusing on her family. Marlo getting hers back. Drew vs Sheree still being a fun feud. And Kenya being...Kenya. I loved her vs Sheree's Assistant. 'Confetti!' hehe. And then...that appearance by Apollo. And they actually mentioned Shady Phae Phae by name. Like @Cheap21, I also believe that a comeback is in the works. From her cameo in DUBAI, her appearance on ALL STARS 2, and now THIS?? I would not at all be shocked. In fact, it's old school soap...usually when a name is mentioned of a character who has not been seen or talked about in ages, it usually means they are on the way back. I guess we will see. KENYA. KENYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAA!!!! Not the coochie crack flashback. lol. But still...Kenya has come a loooooooooooooooong way. hehe. She definitely has been a breath of fresh air this season. And I loved that when Sheree tried to bone carry what Kenya said to Sanya and Sanya tried it again...Kenya just paid her dust. I hope...regardless of Kenya's recent comments...she gathers Sanya at the reunion. Cuz Sanya feels like she will keep coming for her. Meanwhile...Kenya vs The Assistant was EVERYTHING. I love a good recurring character and she was hilarious. KANDI. Awwwww at her with Ace. And Ace getting into acting. I found it eye opening. But he is just adorable anyway. SHEREE. Le sigh...well...if Sheree is going to do anything it is going to be bone carrying...and not paying bills. lol. It's a shame really that Kandi and Kenya have done nothing, but tried to help her get her business going, and all Sheree has given...are excuses. Or worse, she talks about them behind their back. Something ELSE to look forward to at the reunion. That said...I stay loving the fun shady feud between her and Drew. And it was more of the same...oooh how I will miss this fun shady feud. And speaking of bone carrying...her and APOLLO??? How did that scene happen? Things to make you go hmmm...? DREW. Did you all see her online versus Sheree? YES, they went at it again and this time...dare I say it...DREW WON??? Okay, Sheree still gathered. Last time, Sheree dragged her for DAYS. But this time...I would say they DRAGGED EACH OTHER??? What a difference a year makes. Drew really has come into her own...and a living reason for giving most new housewives (Note: NOT Diana on BH) two seasons. Drew came through...just like Porsha did after Season 5. If anything, Drew appears to be coming into her own quicker than Porsha did. I still have no love for Tampa Ralph on my screen. I know they are tryhards, but at least Drew has studied WELL. MARLO. I never thought I would say this. But I think I am over her. And that scene with her nephews? Hmmm...I found it telling. But was that not the problem that had them kicked out in the first place. The truth...I think Marlo's attitude is rubbing off on them, and she honestly does not see it. And the fact they appeared to all be shady toward her sister's house. Uhhhh...NO. And then there she goes coming for Kenya again about getting a door shut in her face. I low-key hollered at one of her friends clearly liking Kenya. SANYA. Ugh. I dislike her more than Marlo really. The 'bye bitca' under her breath when she hung up on Kenya after Sheree's bone carrying. She was lucky it was not me pre-coffee. She would have gotten it. She was a typical rookie this season, and still making rookie mistakes. All that said...I would like them all back. And looking forward to all the cameos next week for the finale.

Thank you for the tip. I have heard the name, but had no idea what it was about.

I bet. Her and Ice T had great chemistry from the episodes I've seen. WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love me some Scott Westerfield though I have not started that series by him...other than the first 50 pages.

He has definitely been a case of his off-screen life has affected how I see his on-screen life.

Well it is. lol.

8-18 Oh how I wanted to throw something at my TV, I loved the buildup to the verdict. And ROBERT!!!! LONG TIME NO SEE!!! But I'm looking forward to the aftermath in terms of Rory/Trina/Spencer. He finally said it aloud. Now he needs to say it to TRINA. But of course, he didn't get to Trina before her and Rory made it official. And now he wants to be a matryr. Just ugh. But I'm eating it up because I wanted to shake him for not telling her. Count me in as not liking MC's interpretation of Nickolas as of late. Just watching the scenes with him and Victor and Victor could see right through him. I just feel that Nik would put up better walls. Even MC played Nik better when he first appeared. Now here is Jordan with a search warrant and MW and CS both had on flawless game faces and played not-knowing what was going on to the hilt. Not looking guilty over fake social media or throwing people off turrets. lol. Then you look at Nik with a conflicted face. Uhhhh...no. There was a way to play that and have a game face on. I don't know what happened to MC. I do like that when (yes, when) Esme resurfaces, she will be in trouble. Well...I admit that I was impressed with how they gave Dex a backstory. And one that was similar to Sonny. And I felt the actor did a great job with the material. For the first time, I actually cared about him and wanted to see where they go with him. So...good job. Still...not feeling Cody. lol. Not shocked. The difference between him and Dex in developing a newbie is officially night and day. I actually forgot that Carly knows that Nina and Willow are related. And it surprises me that having other people roped into Willow's drama that I care about (Terry, Britt, and ESPECIALLY TJ) is making me care about Willow. A little. lol. I

RHoDubai Meh. I thought it was just me so I had to watch it twice. But that was how I felt about the finale. I really could not put my finger on why that is. There were plenty of good moments, but it was the sum of the parts for me. I did like that the season ended with focus on culture. Ayan talking to her sister in a different language and that was its own scene with translators. Sara wanting to show the girls that one area. Lesa and the passing of Miss Goat. I also liked that the season ended on a vibe of 'what's to come.' And by that...I meant...Lesa vs Caroline. Their rivalry has been sprinkled throughout the season. And it was definitely teased here...and in the trailer for the reunion. I have heard about THE Milan. And I saw Caroline on LoL. So it will be great to see that rivalry built in Season 2. THINGS I LIKED ALAS MISS GOAT... I cannot believe that Miss Goat is gone. She was like one of the best recurring characters of this season. So awwww. She will be missed. Just seeing Lesa's family (and her foine husband) has been a joy this season. Also on display was her friendship with Ayan. They are really so close...and the girls are pressed about it. AYAN AND HER SISTER. I really loved that whole scene with her sister. Just speaking their native language. Them relating as sisters and over their experience as kids. I giggled a bit when the sister mentioned how she had been trying to get Ayan to do the therapy for years, but it took Sara to do that. hehe. Such a sibling moment. I really feel that Ayan came through as a Housewife this year by doing what a Housewife should do. She had personality AND was transparent. LESA VS CAROLINE. How Lesa handled Caroline. Was totally the icy-ness that I was used to Caroline having on LoL. Given what Brooks has been trying to say about her being the Brain to Ayan's Pinky, I'm curious to see where a showdown will go. BROOKS A GOLDDIGGER. Ha! at Brooks's son mentioning the word golddigger. And how he probably got the word from her ex-husband. Oh, how funny. SECRET TEA. Oooooooooo...so Bravo added some more to the Reunion trailer I see. So Ayan brings up Sergio might be gay. And Caroline got pressed. hehe. I expect there's a LOT they are not showing from the reunion so I am looking forward to it. I wonder if it will be like SLC's S1 reunion which was a good first time reunion as well. THINGS I DID NOT LIKE THE PREGNANCY. Well, it did come full circle. It would have been odd if Caroline did not mention how things went with Sergio. But still...I am not sure how I feel about it since she (and Sophie) mentioned the complications that would come with a pregnancy. And yet...she did it anyway. I just hope it was the right thing to do. Well, good first season. I feel like come Season 2 they will be off and running.

Well, I'm a season and a half behind. I feel you on that. YES!!! That's the scene!!! My tv was still running so I saw him storming out and rewind to see what got Daddy oh so mad. Because from my viewing it never has happened. I was shocked. He was truly over Heavenly's mess.

THE BEAR Season 1 SWEETBITTER Season 2 And of course...KUNG FU Season 2

WOW. Daddy got mad!!!!!!! I think that's the first time I've EVER seen him step (verbally) to Heavenly and over her mess.

That is just sickening. She need to ignore that. As far as Sally, I hate how this Adam/Sally breakup happened, but I have enjoyed her being on her own and hope shades of B&B Sally pop out. And I've enjoyed the tension between her and Nick.

I've been enjoying his comings and goings and he brings a different vibe that I don't dislike.

That video popped up much that I had to watch that. Yep. If Ex Soap Opera Star's days are indeed numbered...looks like she's going down fighting. Bye, bitca.

Le sigh...

Mmmmmm...Brenda... You know me well. lol.

It's been almost two weeks and it is still haunting me. Just on my mind. I even kinda sorta binged through it again last Sunday. And looked at a few past scenes with the knowledge of this season on my mind. Someone posted a picture of Rehaboom's timeline for humanity/host's end and it really hit that machine foreshadowed Season 4 where there is a collapse around the 28/30 year mark...which it did. And the last dot was 125 years in the future which goes back to the dialogue from the Season 2 post credit scene. So...well-played. Not even my favorite season, but I now feel like a rewatch on Season 3 myself. lol. Dolores-yes, s3 finale Caleb-yes/no.

Now that funnily enough sounds like an entertaining plot. Takes me back to the days of SHE SPIES.

Well I didn't hear it so *takes a breath that the bubble is still alive*

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can we keep him?

No he doesn't!!! Not the jacket on the other hand...he can get rid of that.

OMG! YES! I woke up this morning and THAT was the first thing I saw. This was me...

YAAAASSSSSSSS JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 0 That nose. Those nipples. That KitKat. Mmmmm The chest. *fans self*

See? I had that reaction to Sanya's dress at first. Then I realized she was trying to aim for Warrior Princess and got it. I suspect that it will look better as she moves on camera than in a picture. So I hate to say that, but I liked it. My faves though are Kandi and Sheree. Even Drew appears to come through. This is easily Kenya's weakest look. BUT I have seen other pictures that bring out the outfit more than above so I might change my mind on that, too. Marlo's was just meh.
