Mystery YR return
Same. Love these!!!! I wanted to reply earlier. Thank you for the Vail Bloom shoutout. She really was good in the role for me. And you know you can tell a good tale so opinion away. I like this one for sure. The writers are slowly, but surely putting cracks in the Billy/Lily relationship and the fact MG is back for a bite...one of Lily's best relationships...is just a sign that is an external conflict for them though they have good internal conflict in Billy's need to save all his women and Lily becoming more of a woman who can save herself and won't lessen herself again like she did with He Who Shall Not Be Named. Daniel's presence is just more tension to that. And then...here comes HEATHER. Then Daniel and Heather could be dealing with their issues parallel to whatever JG has planned with Billy/Lily/Chelesa with some Adam dashed in. It could be so organic if it is allowed to breathe. And yes, it writes itself.

Yep...she could have been there, too. No lie. You are going to make me good look for the video on their chat about that. I didn't post it out of respect for the many people here at dislike her, but Ms. Quad was there, too. When I see the pictures yesterday, someone did mention in the comments that Simon has multiple businesses so he can easily pay for the wedding. HOWEVER the person also claimed he tried to do business with Simon of out of four of the businesses...one looked HIGHLY suspicious so they did not do it. Red flags.

THAT's the interesting part. The tea I saw earlier is that Porsha DID NOT HAVE THE WEDDING FILMED. So what pictures I posted (and there are a FEW out there I didn't) and other than some bad quality filming at the reception...there is not anything. Rumor is so she wanted to sell the picture rights like it looks like she did to PEOPLE. I gasped, too. I just saw the video of Porsha talking to Candiace who wanted to be there. I guess they got really close on ALL STARS 3, and Porsha said it might be uncomfortable which is why Candiace could not come. But she DID NOT say that it would be uncomfortable because MONIQUE was going to be there. Oooo...she knew!!! lol. And I love that Monique's Chris is looking weight and I admit he looks kinda FOINE in that picture. I liked Carlos's suit, too. And Gizelle...is the gift that keeps giving. I agree on the fan, too. lol.

B&B November 2022 Discussion Thread
11-23 You all have been talking about it so much I had to see for myself. That was GOOD. And extra days off, too. Classic cliffhanger Friday indeed. I loved how they did the reveal to Taylor (and JMW knows she was fierce with Thomas) realizing Thomas set her and Ridge by framing Brooke. I loved Steffy and how she handled Douglas especially and calling out Thomas over his son...I hope she keeps being that kinda of an aunt. Annd YASSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I wanted...Dollar Bill and Carter 'marking' their territory. Hehe. Bill/Katie/Carter can totally write itself off of those scenes. Add in Li of course. And we know I LOVE Heather Tom so I enjoyed her being so smart in seeing why Bill was already at the house. And she did so much with her face expression. so many shifts and her monologue was top tier. And her getting her confirmation on the stairs of what she had just said by eavesdropping on Dollar Bill vs Carter. PERFECTION.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
POTOMAC First the Burn Session and now this Miami Trip. You can say many things about Potomac, but you can't say they are not having a season where things aren't moving. Lol. And I haven't even got to the fight episode yet. I am not at all liking my work schedule (or my tv system) this year. But it's like that during Potomac season which is REALLY frustrating. Not that Messy Mia is helping matter, but I feel like what La Dame said at the Burn session is true. The GEB (especially Robyn shock of shocks) are really what has been making things toxic in this group. By holding a grudge against Wendy for rightfully dragging them last season. And trying to continue to make a storyline off of Candiace's Chris. By trying to come for La Dame through Charisse. They are working overtime. The fact that all of these stories appear to be converging in Miami is just a perfect storm of drama. I'm here for it, but it's very telling of a clip I saw of La Dame, Ashley, Candiace, and Wendy (by phone) that they looked like the Dream (and Fun) Team to be with. LOVE that clip and the sisterhood in it...and would like to see more. Meanwhile, The GEB continue to be messy...and apparently dragged all week online for the fight. Which brings me to Messy Mia. Mia, Mia, Mia. I think we know I'm a fan of hers around these parts for her brand of messiness. And I knew coming into the season she was going to be a mess due to that real life drama she is having with her BFF Jacqueline who is looking like a good fit so far. And for every ki ki (her and the wine at the burn session), she does something that I'm like TMI!!! I thought Wendy could be too much. And I haven't even gotten to the fight yet. I've seen parts, but not the full context and I already suspect that I'm not going to be the same as how I was during the Monique/Candiace fight where while I leaned one way, I saw BOTH sides and the fight was triggering due to real life work mess. And Mia is definitely doing too much online. And we still haven't gotten to the reunion and her money issues. I mean...as a fan up til now I can only say... EPISODE 5 THINGS I LIKED. WE JUST CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS, CAN WE? I have been enjoying Candiace and Ashley getting along. And Candiace wanting to be her wingman post-Michael Darby. And the shoutout to the old days of Team Young Buck from Season 3. So it was sad to see them go left during the burn session. Le sigh. MESSY MIA. THAT'S how she met G. Allegedly? And just the shear messiness of how she revealed it...that's the delusion of a housewife there. lol. But tbf, at least she owned that. But what makes it funnier for me, is watching her talk knowing what's going on in real time. So she's such an oddity. PRODUCTION IS KEY. Production continued to be on their game this episode. That meme of Ashley's Mom dancing when the divorce was leaked ALWAYS takes me out. And loved they rollbacked on Robyn and Cha Cha for lying on Wendy. And the cherry on top...flashbacking to MONIQUE. Especially knowing that it was clearly foreshadowing the fight coming up in Miami. And we knew how split viewers were then. THINGS I DID NOT LIKED. ONE BOO-BOO, PRODUCTION. There was a scene they cut out that they did by flashback with Ashley, Wendy, Jacqueline that would have given A LOT OF CONTEXT to what was happening on screen. It should have been kept in. EPISODE 6 THINGS I LIKED TEA, TEA EVERYWHERE...DROPS TO DRINK. WOW!!! at the tea that Ashley dropped. And then Candiace was throwing some on Ashley. And Robyn KNEW. It was all just chaotic and dropping back to back (along with Candiace vs Gizelle) that like Mia I needed more to drink. lol. What was fascinating about it was the fact that it seem like these secrets were OPEN secrets and everyone seem to be in the know. Things that make you go hmmm. LA DAME VS CHARISSE. They really be trying to start mess with La Dame. She don't want no Cha Cha on her bday trip. hahahaha. Just watching them try to avoid each other was a hoot. Goodness knows Charisse will do anything to get that flute back. THE FUN!!! Messy Mia being shady with the rooms. Cha Cha being Cha Cha. Ashley stealing the card so they know Wendy and Candiace are being pranked. Gizelle being a shady hoe with no sense of fashion. The start of the Miami trip was already a fun adventure. And then cameo by Patricia Thomas-Bailey!!!! (love this name for him btw)!!! I'm IN!!! THINGS I DID NOT LIKE. WHEN DID ASHLEY GET STUPID? Ashley might be many things. And I've called her many things, but stupid usually is not one of them. For years, we have watched her with Michael and she felt like a bit of a golddigger and every thing has been set for her to get a BIG settlement. So why is she dropping the bag? Was she really in love? Because she's been so crafty over the years...and motherhood mellowing her and making me a fan...I don't know what to think. She don't want to be like Lisa and Lenny over on RHOM. Be careful. CRACKS. Yeah, I'm not liking how Mia is treating Jacqueline. Is she your BFF or not? Looking forward to seeing how the fight colors my perspective.

Y&R November 2022 Discussion Thread
tbf, he was actually rocking the dad bod there for a bit. While I felt he could bring that primal caveman lust look...especially during his amnesiac storyline which is where I felt he look his finest aka primal caveman...I never found him attractive at all during his prime frat boy days aka when he was younger. Funny since I loved the story of Nick/Sharon/Matt back in the day. For me, he's aged like fine wine lookwise. Or it's just the scruff. But like I said...from the amnesiac storyline to now, I know he's an acquired taste in the look departments. I know this cheese stands alone. It doesn't help he has a nice bubble either and a cameraman on this show that is extremely good at camera angles also does not help. I guess I can see why JM doesn't like to wear suits in real life. But I should probably stop right there before this turns into a...risque conversation. hehe. Exactly! Young Nick is sooo forgettable barring his Nikki comparison to Victoria's Victor comparison that used to go on back in the day under William Bell.

Male Charachters that Carried their Shows or Revieved Heavy Focus
I definitely remember SB being a chameleon versus how HB played him so I totally agree. And I remember how hard it was for SB to pull off with the writing, but still...he had it.

Thank you. From moment one. And even from sporadic viewing and a CarJacker, even I knew people were complete fools to try to get in-between those two. They had IT.

Male Charachters that Carried their Shows or Revieved Heavy Focus
I am definitely curious to see where this thread goes. While the IT girls are more defined, I think the IT guys are going to be elusive. Because from what was listed so far, I would say Victor...regardless of his beginnings...is (and continues to be in some parts of the world) an IT guy. From decades, men wanted to be him and women wanted to be with him in terms of fan opinion. Even now, he could post a picture on Twitter (and people have) and people immediately know him and want to be that powerful. At any moment even now, he could easily dominate any part of the canvas he chooses. Like an IT girl he is definitely connected to so many parts of the canvas that it is easily to drop him into it. And some of that is down to the writing. And some of that is down to the actor. Love him or hate him, EB does embody his character and has been there so long, no one could replace him with that kind of flavor that EB brings to Victor. Even as background, parts of the show revolve around him. I would also say the same for Roger though while I was not around for most of his story, his reputation DEFINITELY preceded him so I knew what people would be up against. And Michael definitely embodied his character as well with a charisma that that recast could not duplicate. Same.

General Hospital: November 2022 Discussion Thread
Which is what I've been saying as well. Especially since all the storylines connected to him, some of which were dropped, are all coming to a head. All we are missing is a big event to climax them on. Honestly, I was meh. lol. At first. But I've mentioned that I wanted to see Esme spinned off into Joss/Cam's orbit post Sprina drama. But now that the writers gave Dex a bit of backstory...not to mention how he's a double agent, too...I see potential in them. But I do feel for Cam. After all that buildup between him and Joss.

B&B November 2022 Discussion Thread
11-18 I thought it was a good week that got stalled by episodes playing recatch. Ugh. That said...OF COURSE, BILL WOULD MAKE THAT PLAY FOR BROOKE!!! Is anyone surprised really? I admit that I was SURPRISED that Carter overheard. Would they really let us see Carter vs Dollar Bill? I know it's been a running joke for ages with us here, but it could be fun to see them 'mark' their territory. Maybe I should take it back. For all the stalling...it has a good build. And I really want to see how it goes down. And I do wonder where Taylor goes from here. So...there is that.
