@Cheap21 @NothinButAttitude @Gray Bunny @Chris B @Antoyne...IT'S HEREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah now that Diane got her foot in the door and have people that audience care about giving her a chance (LOVE the recent scene of her and Tracy of all people bonding as well as talking to Allie about Abbott life), SW has been playing Diane as remorseful, but make no mistake not a pushover, channeling so much old school Diane for me. And her needling Phyllis shows so much THAT Diane. Even her catfight with Nikki before Nikki and Victora went on their trip was so much an AD Diane moment for me. I LIVE!!

Still love you all though.

I told you after a decade of waiting we might get the promise of a Kandi vs Marlo feud hinted at in the Season 4 Reunion. Because Kandi ain't speaking nothing, but facts. I remember Kandi creating that Hotlanta show but Bravo didn't want Marlo to go and get a raise. This is juicy.

Thanks forthe info. Oooooo

I am happy for her finding new things to do. But I know I miss Heather Tom on my screen something fierce.

Actually... B&B: B The leadup to Sheila being exposed as shooting Finn and Steffy and the Twist at the End of the Month were well paced for me on a show where there are episodes that are just talking episodes. And then you had Donna/Eric/Quinn starting. And then there was the mess with Grace/Carter/Paris popping in and out. So there were a few things on the side going on, too. Y&R: B Surprisingly this has probably been the most interested since Mal Young went left in his run. Diane's return has recharged everything and the writers ran with it. And I liked Teriah's wedding when I was not expecting, too. The only misstep I found that after being so heavy at the start of the month, the Ashland story vanished. And there is still too much stop start going on (Rey's death, Chance's PTSD, Imani/Nate/Elena) for my taste. GH: C Almost done and while I've enjoyed it, I can't deny that after Harmony's excitingly paced reign of terror, the momentum got lost. It just felt like the pieces were there, the potential was there, but...nothing. DAYS: N/A I'm back on March. lol.

Yeah for me it would be Y&R Glow by Jabot DAYS The Last Blast Crew GH Liz/Lucky/Nik/Emily (honorable mention to Robin/Brenda/Jagger/Karen/Jason/AJ) OLTL Star/Cole/Langston/Markko

Nice to see TJ in that top 10.

Well to be fair, Scott and Darin really took up gym-ing hard core right before the pandemic and it shows. They even did a joint interview on it. And while I'm loving it...LORD...Li is giving Sheila a run for her money in the 'coming across a little crazy' department. And yes @Faulkner. Jennifer's bod is on point. I am jealous. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, I want to say the last time Heather was on either as a talk to to Carter at the very start of the Carter/Paris story or a brief check-in scene with Brooke after Ridge moved in with Taylor and Steffy. I might be wrong though.

6-1 You know what? At this point, I'm going to need Ashland to lash out now that Kyle and Summer (and Victor) did the restraining order on him and he can't see Harrison. That is the only real father he has known and it just played wrong for me. Diane is playing Phyllis like a fiddle and I'm here for it. That Diane smirk when Phyllis lost it in time for Jack to hear her was a thing of beauty. She doesn't have to do a thing really. Phyllis will always be her own worst enemy. Yeaaah Elena's dream was funny. But...given how her and Nate got together...she should be worried.

I thought they did continuity well for the Sean tribute. Or at least they built up to the episode throughout that week. I do wonder if this episode will reveal who really targeted Luke though given the wording.

Thank you for the 54 Director's Cut tip. That said...thank you for this thread, Faulker. Birthday week and I've totally forgot about it. I am curious...especially since one of the actors is playing a gay God over on LEGACIES in a funny case of typecasting...but just haven't found the time. And oh how I miss Conrad on HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER...

You made me go look because I was really curious because I loved Kelly getting it over on Brooke back then and was sad she was not there in Season 2. But wow. Her resume and how beautiful she looks. I was just as shocked to find that Dylan grew up to get between Felicity and Ben. I was like WHHHHATTT!!!! THAT was Dylan? Cuz I HATTTTTEDDD Greg. lol.

RHODubai It began with Caroline Stansbury. For those who don't know or remember she was the HBIC on a little Bravo show called LADIES OF LONDON. For better or for worse, she would keep those girls jumping. Whether her business was thriving or falling apart, you could count on Caroline to still keep a stiff upper lip as she took on everyone. Fast forward to this new show...WOW. She really and truly has mellowed with time. The only sign of old Caroline I saw was at the end at the dinner when she joined in the mess with Caroline B after it had been resolved. Why? Because SHE CAN. And she does not like Ayan. Which brings me to this show. Caroline Stansbury is now a Boss Bitca...in a group of Boss Bitca. Uh oh? I thought it was a good premiere as well. They definitely felt like a group of friends...with the complications that come with it...which was a plus. We had a native to narrate us. And we had wealth. Nice unashamed wealth. And of course, the petty fighting and shade that would come with a HW show. And that made up for the slow start for sure. Because that dinner fight was hilarious. CAROLINE. Well...still all about Caroline. LOL!!! The fact that the main drama has to do with a not-invite to her Hen party lets us know that she is still about being the center of attention. And apparently recovered from her work crash. Interesting that she is technically already married, but has to do a second wedding to keep up appearance as well as be accepted in a way in Dubai society. But through it all, I just could not believe that she was so chilled. Nice even. But it was only at the end of the episode that OLD Caroline popped out by letting herself get messy with Ayan. Will she run the roost here like on LoL? Time will tell. AYAN. ICON. lol. She was off and running this episode. And I'm not bugged at all. All shows need a diva and she most definitely is one. Funnily enough not what I expected after the trailers. So I wonder at what point she will be humbled and will she lose her edge when she does. Loved all her stuff with Lesa. They were given GEB 2.0 and I'm here for that. Cuz that lunch was shady AF before Lesa called Brooks. Speaking of Brooks, I look forward to her rivalry with her because it screams fun petty drama. THE MILAN. So this is who Nuthin and Cheap has been talking about. hehe. My kind of Bougie. So far, she is just so beautiful, witty, and fun shady. Not mention messy. And like I said, I thought her and Ayan was hilarious. BROOKS. Oooooooooo childe!!! She is soooooo messy. But 'Jealous? Of you? With that stiff wig making you look like a scarecrow!' took me ALL...THE...WAY...OUT!!!! I love her. NINA. I also like her. Nice, but firm. Voice of reason? SARA. There is something that draws you in. Her eyes. Her vibe. Just something that I cannot put my finger on it. I cannot wait to see more of her. She just appears so unconventional and I love her trying to help her son get over his fear of heights and talking about Dubai old and new. Good start.

Oh...? In time. I would love to watch them now as an adult to see how I feel vs how I was as a teen.

Juat what I needed to see at the start of my bday week.

Madonna and FORBIDDEN LOVE come to mind. But seriously...money grab.

Thank you @All My Shadows and @SFK for the Tubi tip on SWAN CROSSING and recent chatter in the FIFTEEN thread.

5-24 I love that KA has grown so well in her recast role of Taylor. And this episode was just a case in point for me. We have Mom Taylor, Shrink Taylor, Damsal in Distress Taylor, etc and she has been nailing it, but we haven't seen Fierce Fighting for Herself Taylor and I loved her being defiant with Brooke even if she is not in the right. Poor Eric in between the two of them. I continue to feel that Quinn is going to find out about Eric/Donna by that ring she made. And oh, look. Grace has popped up again.

RHOM So Lenny is trying to get the courts to kick Lisa out of the manison. Just...ugh. And during filming, too.

THIS. Though I feel they have the potential for a good triangle with all three that could have legs here. Then you have been missing out, OzFrog. Because over the last months I do feel they have given that group frequent scenes to touch base. I want to say the most recent being late May. And I loved that Maxie came with Nina to the courthouse because I've felt that Maxie got with Austin and just vanished at the start of the month.

5-23 Now that I made it to the Liz reveal...you know I'm talking about it. LOL!!! From the mouths of babes. That was not what I expected. Go, Violet. Though it is funny that usually Finn figures out things (this with Liz, the paternity pickle with Chase) by a slip of the tongue. Sherlock Holmes he ain't. And I have to admit...now that it is being called sleepwalking and Liz mentioned pills...it was giving me shades of DAYS's Nighttime Hope. *shivers* I did like the acting throughout though BH was practically giving it away that she was not in her right mind 5-19 leading into the reveal episode on 5-20. So the story turns and we get to question where it is going now. I'm always going to be here for Quartermaines feuding so I'm here for Valentin managing to get under Ned's skin and now we have Ned vs Drew and Michael. And I enjoyed Ned vs Drew and throwing the fact that he's always been at ELQ in some form or other with Brooklyn as referee. I was confused though. I thought Valentin had took care of the producer for Brooklyn so why was he back, waving her songs over her again. And YES, I enjoyed Bobbie vs Nina. And rewinded quite a few times because they went in on each other and it was deliciously vicious with them throwing each other pasts (and age) at each other. Speaking of throwing...look at Brad throwing Carly and Sonny keeping Michael from AJ in Carly's face, JS. Someone over there is really keeping track of history again so

Sadly...not shocked.

Yeah, given that Jack has a history of juggling two women...Phyllis and that character Cady Mclain play recent past comes to mind...I would not at all see it as OOC for Jack. Especially when (not if) Phyllis snaps on Diane. But insane...for sure as well. That was something I noticed as well during the Nikki vs Diane scene I saw. As much as I miss AD, there has been times SW has been channeling her and God bless her for that. I was worried that since it was AD and MW's versions of Diane that really interacted with the Newmans, that that would be lost, but she has been doing great...staying haunted for the most part, but sllooowly and surely bringing out old Diane.
