Taoboi

Exactly!!

LOL!!! He really was. But JMW was breathtaking with her shades on that balcony. And the music. And the camera angles. Brad said 'give 'em a show' and I am not complaining. Though I had to stop at Finn laying eyes on Steffy cuz...errands.

That's good to hear.

Talk shows I can understand, but I remember when they were the norm and hand-in-hand with soaps. But extra hours of news...? Yeeeah NO.

HA

DirecTV *shivers*

Ooo...did not even think of that as well.

My thought as well.

Well I definitely hope for a bigger budget at least.

So next on the show chopping block then?

7-27 I'm sorry. That coda with Victor in his chair and Michael revealing that Ashland's car was found and his body was in it. The music with the fade out on Victor's powerful image was perfection. And intriguing. Granted I should not be shocked that Victor did what he had to protect his family. But that was still a powerful image. Now...that said...now he knows better than to let them think that he was not involved in that body disappearing. Will probably just be trouble. Now this is not the first time they had Nick and Sally around each other. Would they go there? Assuming Adam stops playing games with Sally.

Same. I almost want to do a rewatch. She did such a great job between the two sisters. I definitely wanted to know more about Siobhan. Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

They really did. And it always felt organic even if it took years for them to find the right recast. It was part of why I loved it BITD as a regular viewer.

7-28 OMG! I am hollering. Li was about to beat Mike's butt! I've enjoyed the wind up to the FInn/Steffy reunion. Bill finding Li. The time it took for someone to recognize her. Finn struggling with Sheila. Ridge and Taylor on their way to Monaco (yay for location shoot!). And that talk before they got on the plane between Taylor and Deacon...already setting up the next plot. And now Finn is on Bill's private jet...all washed up...and FOINE. Yes, I'm ready.

YASSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I stumbled onto some scenes coming up for me (I'm a week behind now) and I was thinking...'why haven't Ava slapped this heffa yet?' So THANK...YOU. CAN...NOT...WAIT. Re: Scott and Elizabeth's anniversary...WOW. That is a shame nothing was done for either...even something like Scott being a father figure for her. That was a good idea to link them together.

OOooooo. She beat Shady Phae Phae to the punch.

THIS.

*falls over again*

Not even LEMONADE? *falls over* But seriously, we will have to agree to disagree.

I admit that it is building nicely. Can't wait either.

RHoDubai I thought it was a good episode. I was saddened to see Ayan defuse Brooks vs Sara, but it seems that fight is really going to take off next week. It's like a nice little subplot now...something this show needs right now. This week was also about Caroline Stansbury's wedding. It was nice. It was beautiful. There was humor in the form of the running joke about Sergio always crying. And there were LADIES OF LONDON CAMEOS!!!! I did not think Sophie (notice this week they are labeling her as Caroline's EX sister-in-law)'s hair was up to her standards last week, but she got it together quickly. And she was fabulous. She also allowed us into some of Caroline's inner life during the pregnancy talk to Sergio. And there's Juliet being Juliet...and got checked by Lesa. Annnnd LUKKKKKKKEEEE!!! OMFG!!!!...he and Ayan together are the couple that I didn't know I needed. They were great together. In fact, it was funny how Ayan got on with ALL of Caroline's friends (except Juliet of course cuz...Juliet...if you saw LoL you get it...though loved her chainmail shirt at brunch). Could you imagine if Caroline and Ayan actually got along??? Speaking of getting along, the episode ended on Brooks and her mother. And that is something that I love about this show so far. Just when you think someone is one thing, the producers show someone who allows us to get into the inner life of that castmate and see things from their point of view. Ayan came in hard, but through her scenes with Lesa, her family, and Sara, you saw the reasoning behind how she thinks. I felt the same watching Brooks with her mother. Speaking of Ayan...her in the dress for brunch gliding in...was EVERYTHING. CAROLINE. Caroline continues to pull her weight. We have the wedding. We have the LoL cameos. We have light fun with Ayan and Lesa. And I loved the continued drama with Sergio over having a baby. And the fact that he is not listening to her. Yeah, I see nothing, but drama there. The fact he was not even listening to what Sophie was trying to tell him. The last time Caroline had a baby, she almost died. It would be so much more complicated now given her age. He was not getting it. AYAN. Her and that dress at brunch. I don't think there has been any time when Ayan gone somewhere that she has not given looks. And she said as much. I don't find it fake because she's done that from what I can tell on screen AND off screen. I think she is really like this. And I cannot say that I hate it. And her walking with her son in that fashion show...I got tears. LOVE. And please...can we get more of her and Luke...I loved how he got her instantly...but I'm sure he is used to being around models. LESA. LET HER KNOW, GREG!!! lol. What do I mean? I mean her checking Juliet. Juliet thought she would come in and cause drama with Ayan and Lesa. And I love that neither of them were having it. But it was Lesa for me at brunch. Yes, Juliet has a point. Caroline has made it clear since her LoL days, that she is the star and should shine brighter than anyone else. And Lesa said she ain't letting anyone shine brighter than her; get used to it. I was here for it. Thank you! And I loved her (and Brooks) went to support Ayan at her fashion show. #friendsgoals NINA. Was going through it. But was in it very little. SARA. Ooooo at her next week!!!!!!!!! She got up and got in Brooks's face like an ATL Housewife. It will definitely make up for this week where Ayan and Lesa came in to stop her fight with Brooks. I had a moment again if Brooks is right about what she said about Sara. Have we seen the real Sara? BROOKS. Like I mentioned, Ayan became softer as the season has gone on because we saw her with other people who we sympathized with. Here we had Brooks with her mother. And it allowed me to understand Brooks a little bit better. HOWEVER...I noticed that her mother had a few side-eye moments as if she knew more than she was saying. Things to make you go hmmm. Ready for next week and Brooks vs Sara Round 2.

Yeah, I am starting to concur as well. re: Marlo. Don't get me started on OC. I still have to finish the season. And I liked Noella in all her drama. And I liked Elizabeth, too, and wanted her to have a second season.

Probably tomorrow.

Uh... Well...I'm here for Kristen having some measure of power again. I saw some of the scenes where she revealed she was in charge of Basic Black to Brady/Chloe and admit I was intrigued for the trouble she would bring their way.
