I've only seen it once and I remember thinking that.

I don't hate Chase. But he's overdue some comeuppance for the arrogance. It's deserved. And I think everyone is enjoying it (Chase/BLQ/Michael/WIllow/Drew) because it's really the only story on this show that has actual movement and a not completely disjointed pace to it. This. Soaps have plenty of room for himbos. It's the reason I don't mind Derek on BTG. Though Josh completely outacts Ben. Same. Also same. What a difference villainy makes. And well...same. But yeah, I do wonder (hope) the writers go there.

lol. Probably. re: Chase beat to death.

Very.

lol

Well we will always have Dani and Andre. :)

Whether he did or not...sounds like he took a story that was not rushed, but stalled, turned it into a B&B storyline (as in rushed it and thus giving a viewer whiplash), and now the actor it was done for might as well be as DOA as his on screen sister.

We are going to have to agree to disagree. Love you though. ;)

It sounds like I'm going to wind up reading them when I get to this week.

Nothing I'm not used to from GH. At least it's a better paced story that I'm into vs Random WSB Guy and the Five Poppies that hasn't moved at all. And we know WHEN it's ending aka it's going to be a loooooong 2 and 1/2 months.

Oooo. Let me run on over...hehe. Thanks!

Thank you for this. As much as I wanted it this month...in hindsight today, I think I would have felt it was too rushed if they did.

Well that's fine. Perhaps she and Spin will just recur. Or she will pop in for arcs. Kinda like how Kristen on DAYS started off as when they recast with Stacy Haiduk.

Well...let him bend. It's good back there. ;P But seriously...since he and 'Nathan' are interchangeable and Frank gotta Frank...maybe they are. Time will tell. They fought again? Ooooo. Always.

So it sounds like Joss's airtime is about to increase.

RHOA Apparently the trailer is dropping tomorrow.

I think for me this week it is going to be... DAWSON CREEK SEASON 5 (yes, I broke down) THE OTHER BLACK GIRL YELLOWSTONE SEASON 5 (when it drops on Sunday) Oooo at last!

I'm happy to see the Laura thread is going to emerge again.

That's a good point as well re: Doug and his hand. I totally forgot that Joey found out quickly.

RHOP Great Part 1. It was fun for me from start to finish. It flowed by so well that I was bummed when it was over. Time just flew. The direction was great. They started with the Wendy/Eddie scene and her arrest. They teased Karen. And of course, I giggled when Gizelle found out she was NOT First Seat. AGAIN. There were so many good moments. I liked that Stacey held her own. I'm always here for Stacey vs Tia. And honestly, I liked that Gizelle, Keiarna, and Tia were given time to explain why they dislike Stacey. And it made sense. That said...Gizelle knew she was pressed. Meanwhile, Angel held her own, too. I felt she did good in Part 1 with looks. There was some interesting tension going on between her and Ashley that I loved to see. More of it. And then it ended on a nice TBC as Wendy vs Ashley started. Just all around good. So far... GIZELLE. I'm going to sit there and giggle that she thought she was getting first seat. hehe. Andy was going to be shady. And oooo she was bothered by Stacey. But the rivalry between her and Stacey has been such a subtle battle between there. There were times this part that it reminded me of Gizelle vs Karen when they are on good terms. Same energy. That said...she (and Wendy) were totally hazing Angel. ASHLEY. The most interesting thing about her was that tension between her and Angel. It made me wonder what was going on from the end of the season to the filming of the reunion. And Angel was getting her good. But she got a good dig in at Wendy at the coda. WENDY. Not the ladies picking on her mugshot hair! lol. Other than that, I thought she was pretty low-key. I loved that we both were laughing at Stacey vs Tia. It's hilarious that arrest or not, she stayed serving looks. And she defended herself from Angel cuz it was never her that started CatfishGate. She just went along with it. Let's be clear. And her vs Ashley at the end was a nice surprise. KEIARNA. I disagree with everyone saying she didn't say anything in Part 1. She did. In fact, she kept trying to have a moment, but everyone overtalked her or made her shut up. She did have a very interesting moment when Andy asked Wendy about her kids, Wendy said she didn't lie to her kids, and the cameras panned to her with a look on her face. What's the tea? STACEY. Not us starting the reunion with everyone trying to gang up on her again! But she held her own. And I really liked that the other ladies were able to explain what their issues are with Stacey. And again...always here for Stacey vs Tia. And seems like Andy, Wendy, and everyone else were as well. I just hope she listens to what Andy said. She did avoid the second season curse. But she better not get like Alexia on RHOM and let the audience love get to her. TIA. Not her sending doing Angel wrong with that running water stray! I hollered. I liked we got another round of her vs Stacey. Otherwise...nothing much this part. ANGEL. I'm so proud she started off holding her own. Toward Gizelle. I liked she had time for Ashley, too. And that 'STOP' with the bass in her voice. More of that please. She is still a little too focused on Wendy still. But not surprising given what's going on with Wendy in real life. And being called James Earl Jones. DEAD. Pun unintended. Bring on Part 2.

Hahahaha not Pizza Hut. I haven't finished this week. Yet. But yeah, Katie at least mentioned it. I want to say one of the times she did was to Bill for sure. Those scenes were between all of those scenes where Katie was talking to Deke at the restaurant and Bill's offices started to show up again. I want to say one of those scenes was the week after the Friday cliffhanger where Brooke walked in on Eric and Katie at Bill's office in terms of the dialogue timeline. Yes!!!! I can't begin to say how heated I was. I was sure that I vented about it when it happened. I was hoping it was Katie and Deke with Bill's money and Eric mentoring against the Forrester. Lol. Same. The takeover had potential. And it went nowhere.

lol

Yeah, that Karen interview was a much better look for her. And she was slooowly taking accountability. How...LuAnn. And Sherrie was not backing down at all. So I feel more on her side. Honestly, I want all the newbies back (Angel, Tia, and Keiarna...okay not newbie, but still). She at least was doing things the first half of the season and I did find her entertaining. I also think she will do better with Karen back simply because Keiarna has always had Karen's back since Karen was there for her during the Sesame Street affair. Part of the reason K was having beef with Stacey was due to her allegiance to Karen...who Stacey was turning on.

With how they are written? VERY. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa They both have and I loved that for them. And they had good writing at the time for it to truly work which I really loved. So the potential for a story with 'Nathan' might have been cool. Well...months ago at any rate. Same. I want her to find out that Sidwell more than likely was responsible for her coma as a way to dig deeper into Deception and her pull an old school Maxie scheme, but we are probably getting that stupid quad instead.

Oh, I recall. hehe. I do like that show has kept Dante...mid-burner...more than anything even if I have not always liked a lot of what they've done with him (ie: plot driven story with Gio). I do miss the days where a soap would have a character die and you got to see their significant other mourn them in real time...which was usually a year. Like Trina with Spencer, they have not done a good job with that with Dante in the writing. Don't get me started. You know where my thoughts lay on that. Just like Liz and the Three Single Love Interests...there was story potential in having all of Laura's kids in town. And it was very much on my Wishlist a couple of years back. Be careful what you wish for indeed. Watching the disdain for anything Laura on my screen over the last few years has really made me see red at times. When THERE...STORY...RIGHT...THERE. So yes...clear disdain. Outside of clear agenda for dead-end characters. coughnathancough Sadly...same. I think Alexia will. Good for Lulu, but I dread what horrible writing they will put her through out of shear spite for more organic ways to have her around. I keep forgetting about that story beat. Mostly because they have not played it at all since Maxie was on canvas if I remember correctly. Does Dante even know? Because mourning or not, I feel if he did...realistically...that would eventually draw him towards Lulu. AMEN. Hehe. You know what? THIS. And I would be here for it. Though I don't see Willow ever going back to love with Drew. Or least, not a non-twisted kind of love. The stupidity of it as a love roadblock is an insult to viewers when there are more realistic and ADULT ways to do a love roadblock coughTJcough And your reasons are valid. But...Frank is going to Frank.
