Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
But I like discovering music I haven't heard before. 😜 But seriously, I agree with you. Some people might find it slow online, but I have enjoy it without looking at the clock either. It's funny you should mention that! Re: Sara's tale. I saw it referenced online and went back and watched the episode yesterday. It so enriched the conversation between Sara and Ayan. I sat and went awwww they are kindred spirits. I love Ayan and Lesa together, but I would love to see Sara and Ayan together. I do feel she could get Ayan to soften while still being true to herself. And Sara's relationship with her son...I can relate to that. Since there are no nice men, best to raise one to know how to treat a woman. But Nina does give a little Erica Kane, no? But I get what you mean. Honestly, I like all the women so far. Though I suspect I low key consider Sara my favorite. And I also low key like Brooks as our messy queen. I can see how she might know Shady Phae Phae. Wait!!! Tjan said WHAT?? I must have been distracted by the goat. lol, I think any woman who can take on Ayan is going to do fine at Reunion. Because 'stiff wig looking like a scarecrow' STILL is taking me out 2 weeks later. And awwwww...at this rate, I hope Ayan and Kim do wind up at an event somewhere. She is suuuuch a fan and I love it. She really is. And loves waxing on about it, too. They have to meet.

@Cat I believe you are a fan of Kari as well so I would say stick with Season 8. I am behind on finishing the season but it was another good season from what I heard in spite of Covid. I think I was doing too much at the time it aired so I fell off myself. I will be binging it before the new season starts though.

@NothinButAttitude cuz she got it, she got it!!!! But seriously, I can kinda get why she's back, but it will feel weird without Mariah there. Same on Toya. I still haven't finished Season 8, but I live for her antics.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
RHOM Episode 10...wow. I cannot believe it's about to be over soon. And this episode was good and juicy. To think that Larsa was just background at the beginning of the season. And now her rivalry with Adriana has finally started to boil over. And Adriana did not back down. It was fun to watch. And I got chills when Larsa showed up at Guerdy's event after saying she was not going. And then it was Round 2 with the ladies stuck in the middle. Uh oh. And then you had the feud going with Nicole and Marysol. Nicole isn't bothered though. She just does not want to be around you, Marysol. I liked her pow-wow with the newbies at her house and them trying to get her to get along with Marysol, but alas. It will be nice to see where that is going. On a whole other note...yay for seeing where Guerdy's image at the beginning of the opening came from. I was not sure if that was her husband or not. Can I get a man like that please? lol. Things are popping. ALEXIA. She was a bit background this episode and last, but her Confessionals were still on point. And she would know about people arguing at a benefit. *cough*Karent*cough* You could see she was beside herself with Larsa vs Adriana. LISA. Oh, these scenes with her were soooooooo uncomfortable given what's playing out IRL right now. Here is Lisa with Lenny's parents and giving an update on her relationship with her Mother-In-Law. They appeared like they were in sync in the Confessional. Lenny was even smiling and laughing. But you are telling me at that time, they were seperated and he was with that model chick? I mean...WOW. He didn't at all look as checked out as he seem in the first episode or so this season. GUERDY. LOVE everything about her this episode. And I love how she can take something as simple as a hat, with white top, and black long skirt...simple colors...and looks sooooooooooo breathtaking (we know Kiki stays giving looks btw ) when she went to Nicole's pow wow. I loved her benefit and supporting local artists, seeing her relations with her dad. Seeing her husband at his foine-ness for me. And yes, she had to be the good host and get those girls to focus on what's important. I don't know....perhaps it's because it's my bday week, but seeing someone doing the job they want to and loving it is making me feel some kinda way today. JULIA. Is that some pot stirring coming from Julia? No, no...not Jules? Reminding everyone at the pow wow that Larsa picked on Nicole having kids out of wedlock. I see you. And it's always a joy to see Martina. And loved her ribbing her for drinking. NICOLE. And speaking of background for the first few episodes and turning it around, look at Nicole staging that pow wow. Is she forming a new posse to rival Alexia? Time will tell...but it did give some Season 2 Old Miami vs New Miami and I did not hate it. Meanwhile, I continue to like her vs Marysol. LARSA. WAY TO STEP IT UP!!!! While I'm more than like Team Adriana most times, I could see Larsa's point of view. Who knows what she is and is not allowed to talk about when it comes to Kim K and her family? She has to play a little coy. But...then again...she also has to bring it. And nothing brings out the best in Adriana than a good feud. More the better when it is someone who can get feisty back. And her dropping in at the event last minute...I literally gasped before commercial. The anticipation...just because Round 1 was messy. MARYSOL. Was giving good Confessionals. ADRIANA. No one backs Adriana into a cover (outside of Martina). Someone might start something...or she might...but she tends to finish it. The last thing anyone wants at a benefit is the Joanna Krupa Special. I don't know if she saw Kanye West's thang, but I wouldn't be shocked either. Adriana has always been a flirt. And what did I say about feuding...cuz she and Larsa have been from jump. In the background. Now it's in the light...and I'm here for that. Everyone loves a Queen Bee vs a Wannabe...but who is who? Can't wait until next week. Yeah, I forgot about that. So you know she can do a good Erica Kane slap. Just kidding!!! lol.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
RHoDubai I thought it was a nice aftermath episode. I knew it was coming from the trailer, but it was nice to see Ayan explain her background. It puts her in a whole new perspective. But is it too late given Caroline has already socially disowned her? Time will tell. It was interesting to see everyone go about their lives in this one with the drama from the dinner in the background of the episode. We saw them in their lives in this city, and I just found it fascinating. Lesa wanting to cook and celebrating her traditions and that market...? I was...surprised. Then I thought about it and yeah that would make sense. There is Sara struggling with being sure her kids know their traditions. Then you have the wealth on display with Nina and her jointed dinner with Sara and her lunch with Ayan. And...Nina. Interesting that three people (Ayan, Lesa, and Brooks) are side-eying her for her friendship with Caroline. Hmmm. As far as the ladies this week... CAROLINE. More of Old Caroline here. Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing. But it does give LoL that everything is revolving around her even if we see her very little so far. AYAN. Layers. Perhaps it's more telling that she was sitting there waiting for Nina and doing self-actualizations...which gives even more meaning to her sit-down with Sara at the end of the episode. She had a heartbreaking life so no wonder she is determined. As a person who came from a lower middle class family and barely that...I understand that need to be better. And just like that, Ayan...becomes human. And as I love her friendship with Lesa, I definitely love her bonding with Sara...wig and all!!! THE MILAN. I love her accent. Like Sanya over on ATL, I keep expecting it to go thick at any moment. But just hearing her speak fascinates my ears. I am really enjoying her showing her family life this episode. Just the idea of tradition and keeping it alive. It makes me think of my own family and I go awwww. And just her trip to the market was interesting to watch. And her kids. And her friendship with Ayan continues to be real and fun to watch. Cuz...THAT GOAT. Meanwhile, she is already bringing the shade in the Confessionals. BROOKS. Not enough of her. But...messy all the same. What she was hinting at about Nina (along with Ayan who has known Nina the longest and Lesa) was very interesting. I also liked that she discussed her relationship with Ayan and how they are...frenemies?? I liked that regardless of them dragging each other, that it does seem like Brooks actually care about Ayan. NINA. Hmmmm...I'm not sure if she is a snake...yet...but she definitely does have wealth. But given what the others have said...is her friendship with Caroline...our first alliance of this show? SARA. Just...there's nothing about her that I'm not finding mysterious, but fascinating all the same. Her and her son was nice to watch and I just find her being open and discussing anything having to do with culture fascinating. I could go on and on and on about her vibe. Nice episode.

Yeah it does remind me that I still need to finish last season. But I am behind on a lot of Bravo shows. I tried to get you and Cheap ready for her return. *runs* *comes back* Was Scott even in the promo? And people are saying OMAROSA is. *gasps* I wasn't sure if you did, but still shocked. That was a great scene.

RHOA Oh, lord!!! These peaches. I agree with a lot of you. So there is nothing major going on. But there is a lot going on at the same time. Last season was a bad look for the peaches. And this season is purely transitional. It is rescimiscent of the fun older seasons and it does feel like...for better or worse...we are seeing the girls' lives again with no one being favored. And the shade has been fun. Except for Drew. But who cares about Drew? Now ShebySheree though...WOW. It was painful to watch. From being cocky and on top of the world at the start of the episode. And then to be left alone like that at the restaurant and finding out from a producer he ain't coming. After TWO HOURS??? ON TV???? And it should say something that all of SM was gunning for Tyrone after that versus we were just shaking our heads at Drew being clowned on national TV. The difference was night and day. I liked how light it was. Easy and breezy. And the image of Marlo on the bike in fashionable red will always be stuck in my head. KENYA. Easily so far her best season. All she has to do is be pretty, shady, and open. I know it is about to go left, but I love the trio of her/Sheree/Marlo because they are giving us fun shade and genuine moments at the same time. And Kenya really was being Big Shoulder to Cry for everyone. And we get a flash of her life by her coparenting with Marc. Can't believe he almost did not want to see Brooklyn. Really? MARLO. Lord...she was lethal with her shade at Drew, wasn't she? Cuz...Facebook Group? lol. She was being funny this episode. And it was nice to see a hidden scene from the scene when Marlo and Kandi talked at the studio. Who knew that Marlo had an black ex? And again...her on a bike. SHEREE. So this must be when Tyrone started to be messy. Le sigh. I know he changes his mind, but I don't see how Sheree can stay with him since he just clowned her on national tv. But...love makes one do crazy things. KANDI. It was nice to keep seeing her business side, but she sure was being a bit freaky. DREW. Stays getting clowned. But that said, I could see why she was right. If Sanya was her friend, that was a talk to have to the side with her and not in front of the others...who are sure to clown her on that, too. SANYA. Side-eying. Looks like next week will really start the feud. Prehaps those haters will shut up because show has been good.

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!!

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.

Rate the Soaps
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.

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.

GH: Stand alone episode
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...
