@victoria foxton awww thank you. I know I'm going to feel beside myself next Sunday when I have nothing that I feel like watching. In hindsight, slight bit of rushing aside...this was a great final season. And I LOVE the image above. They all have come such a long way...

NJ COKEHEAD STRIKES AGAIN!!! Online sounded like he would try to deflect. I had even started to watch Part 2 of the Reunion, but I was just...bored...lol. I blamed it on switching jobs and adjusting to a new schedule. So here I was watching. Yeah, I don't get it. Part 1 was a firecracker. And this past season was easily the best one COVIDwise. But Part 2...meh. Jennifer hit Marge where it hurt. And if they had kept going, no time to recover with another lie. But alas. SMH. And Couch Left did recover. And then they were sitting there trying to silence Jennifer and pick on Teresa. That must be a strong alliance for Jackie to take Marge's side knowing what Jennifer was saying. And I didn't like that little smirk Marge gave to Jen when Plumber Man tried to lie. Okay, did lie. And her being her again tried to talk over him so he did not fumble his words. And then as usual Andy Cokehead had to focus on how hot Joe Gorga is. RME. THINGS I LIKED MARGE VS TERESA. I keep on saying it. And I keep on seeing it at reunions, but I do feel Marge really does not like Teresa. And YES, I do believe Marge is behind the Evan rumor. Someone brought it to Teresa and she did run with it. Teresa yeah is not as dumb as she acts. Thus Danielle and the hairpull that she was behind. And we think a Jersey girl like Marge would not do the payback? At this point, I feel both ladies have the other's number so they are really playing a mean game of chess. Love that Teresa was FINALLY picking on Marge's for her THs. Marge used the hair pull. Teresa still threw some shade. Marge brought up that Teresa knew what allgory was with a receipt. Parry. Thrust. Back. Forth. I predict that come next reunion...the gloves might FINALLY come off and they really go into it. JACKIE VS TERESA. See a theme here? Jackie did not do much, but she brought back up the rumor. And I thought it was good. Because Jackie was the only one who was trying to keep that horse going. Even her husband wasn't doing that. He was trying to smooth things over though. Why? Because Teresa IS the show. One can only go against her so long before they fall...which is why a feud with Marge would be interesting since she is also a favorite. Basically kiss the ring. In the end, she did. But I liked they somewhat organically came to a resolution. LUIS. Awww with that cameo. THINGS I DID NOT LIKE THE DIRECTION. PERIOD. We just need a better host. Asking and focusing on the right and juicy questions. Not just the lame ones like how it feels to kiss Joey's butt. Heck we could have gone into the alleged rumors about Jennifer and Bill. BRO CODE. While I understood why Joe would lie for Marge...duh...all one would have to do is do the rollback over the scene where he said what he said. And judging from the early rumors coming out of early filming, Bill is about to suffer for not keeping quiet either. Some boys are getting as messy as their wives... Again...good Part 1. Good season. But Part 2 was uneven. Wasted potential. Filming starts today or tomorrow...and early rumors are people are icing Jennifer AND Bill out.

Oh yes, Wendy tweeted about karma hitting AATT today. I've been watching the drama that went down with the panel a few days ago...and am no longer a fan. #teamplez #teambishop My only issue will be figuring out for real which stories were real and which were fake.

So...it's here. The LAST episode of POSE. After it only being seven episodes...after feeling slight hints of rushing...did it hold up? YES, This is probably going to be very scattered brained, but I loved so much about it (and the fact that it was two hours, not 90 minutes). A lot of people posted online that the talk about medical racism and how that STILL holds up right now even though that was back in 1995. It made me think of the time on LOOKING when they touched on Prep. As a black man, I never heard of it so it was news to me. I wonder why...hmmmm... Pray Tell, Pray Tell, Pray Tell. Not my favorite character, but he had a complete arc and I was along for the ride. And it was nice to see him doing well on the cocktail. It was nice to see him be there for Ricky. It was nice to see his breathtaking performance duet with Blanca to Ain't No Mountain High Enough. He was heading toward a happy ending. And it did occur to me that he was getting everything he wanted so something bad must be about to happen. So I was not surprised that he died. I WAS SURPRISED when the twist was revealed. Well it was in character because Ricky could always be naive. So of course he was happy that Pray Tell could get him on the cocktail and never questioned it. A sarcifice. And a bittersweet one because Ricky went on to be a House Father AND a backup dancer for the up and coming Destiny's Child. To be honest, Ricky really has grown over this last season and he truly was not where he was at the start of the show, but none of the characters were. Now...Blanca and the spin...YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You all know I love spins...which is why I love me sum Lulu...who got a happy ending too...it was really, really, really good to see Blanca let loose like that with the spin and drop for me. And her lip sync was great and her dancing so well like a mirror image with Pray Tell...lol...I know my Gemini is showing. MJ has always been good in her ballroom performances but she...like the looks Blanca has been showing off...has taken to a whole other level this season and that was so great. And I am also happy to say BLANCA LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So And that ending that echoes not only the first episode, but the season 2 finale when she had that Prof X vibe going on, AND to Whitney's 'My Love is Your Love?' PERFECTION. I had tears at her full circle. AND she has a hot man that loves her. You know I'm going to talk about that brunch and how meta it was. They shaded TF out of SATC and it was hilarious. And it was also very on point, given the issues that are always brought up about SATC at the same time. I wouldn't mind a SATC show with THESE girls. Not that I don't like the OTHER girls. Or a spinoff of the new ballroom kids. Not much, but they did have potential. Since I was watching old clips yesterday, I thought that it was very telling that 1998 Lemar was doing the SAME moves he was doing in the first episode this season. And it was funny because the judges said then that he can made it through the 80s with his old moves, but had updated to the 90s to stay relevant. Now in 98, those moves looked very old, dated, and worn...like Lemar did not make it out of the mid90s. Same style and everything. I would have liked to see Damon. But I'll take the mention of him happy in Chicago with a guy. I wished they had used some of the other characters more, but in hindsight, their stories were most finished a few episodes back and this was about the rest of the characters. So...good.

Wow. Someone that has beiged!!! Hell-o!!! That said... I love your comments other than Eboni, but I understand. thank you for the tea on Sonja. Puts the whole situation in a different light for sure.

I think Chris needs to stop trying to be a White Peter. From what I see online, he does just a little bit too much and that takes away from what we see of him onscreen...sometimes in not good ways.

Good straw.

LOVE.

Really? Not bad.

Well since status is not working... ...NOT unexpected, but STILL hit me where it hurts. It occurred to me, but dammmmmmmmmm..

Thank you for the spoilers tag. I'm still back on the start of this week.

@Soaplovers hopefully that means some of those 'ladies' are out.

Yeah it just feels like more and more he was trying to get on the show. And her? Just focusing on the bag. Ashley she ain't.

Cute. And Shangela was spot on...

RHOA And just as quickly as Falynn got an ad up...Simon had a response...chilllde... Oh? Ewww And I've still bugged by her behavior today so I feel that last sentence.

IS...HE...NOW? *cough*karma*cough*

RHOA Uh oh now... NY Well everyone knows I need to do a binge of NY since my first season to peek in really was Season 8 with Bethanny's return, but if you all are saying this LuAnn is SEASON 4 LUANN...not sure I want to go back. lol. Definitely seen her as a classist at times, but still feel some kinda of way about her after this week. DALLAS DEFINITELY was renewed for S6. But they are putting it on break with OC (and RHOA though that should start to film again in 3 to 5 weeks supposingly) to see about how to reboot it.

BH For something so serious...that felt so light. And I don't think that's a bad thing. Of course the episode was about two things. The most serious thing being Crystal vs Sutton. And unpopular opinion, but I feel (unlike LuAnn on this week's NY) Sutton is just ignorant. It has been established since last season that she was an odd bird and even Crystal mentioned it. Ignorant people can be taught differently and Crystal basically said it was time for Sutton to get caught up with the times. I feel that something Sutton had slllooooowwwwwly been doing by becoming friends with Garcelle. And Garcelle is definitely not the type to be close friends with someone with deep racist tendencies. I did not like Sutton trying to talk over Crystal when she was talking about her experiences as Asian. And I did like that Crystal was able to move it and their bonding over their father's passings. However, Sutton was doing too much. Yeah, that was some white fragility there, but I feel she will get over that. And she will at least apologize for her ignorance. Going forward I feel this is going to be thorny than it appears to be or turn into a goofy feud because online they seem very frenemies-ish. And then the episode was about the Fabulousness of Kathy Hilton!!! OMG!!! She is just a fun nut. How can you hate on a woman with a fan, newspaper, a bag of chips, and a Red Bull!!! The prank was HILAROUS...until Sutton ruined it. She continued to be a breath of fresh air. And she definitely keeps the fun going. And while slow paced than the first two episode, it was a pretty good episode. KYLE. She was pretty much the bun of online jokes this week. And I'm here for that. But never forget that this Crystal vs Sutton talk started because she was talking about Garcelle. EX SOAP OPERA STAR. I will give her this much. She was funny in that prank. ERIKA. Only good for reaction shots just like a good blow-up doll. DORIT. Loved that she (and Garcelle) were in on this job. She was fun thoroughout just like Kathy. GARCELLE. You know you are a queen when you have haters. And as said above, Garcelle so far has been beating that second season curse. However, it has been noticed that the Coven are coming for her online. It has also been noticed that the racism is coming out of a lot of fans for her. How...vulgar. She has been nothing but class and straightforwardness and yet Crystal is the only one allowed to call out someone. Or is that because she is calling out that nasty Coven...who have it coming btw? I can't with that. She was fun here and still straight forward by asking about the texting between Erika and Ex Soap Opera Star just in case it was about Sutton. I am afraid as well the attacks on her start next week. I am just glad that she appears to be ahead of the game and playing her cards extremely well. SUTTON. I feel like I need to go and find that Tyra Banks gif from ANTM cuz GUUUURRRRRRLLLL!!! I know I am coming at it from a different perspective. She reminds me of a close friend of mine who during lockdown wanted to talk to me about all the history she read (since she loves nonfiction) about black people in America. And once I got her to stop crying and apologizing as if she was the person responsible, we had a good talk about that and moved on. She's been a great ally back in Arkansas and that is something to admire how she went out there, educated herself, and WANTS to do what she can. In light of the fact that this week was 100th anniversary of Black Wall Street, I feel it's timely for all of these talks. BUT she was doing too much throughout the episode. Her...well Karen...popped out. Still care, but that was a bad look for her. CRYSTAL. She's growing on me. I liked a lot of what she revealed this episode. And I liked that she was over Sutton (sorry, Sutton) and kept trying to move on. I love her way with words. KATHY. Boss. There was not a moment of film that was wasted on her. So good episode.

It's pretty much a known fact that Bravo very very rarely adds any reality personality outside of another network. Might steal their thunder. But...nothing like some speculation. I do agree that doing the 'Tori Spelling' approach isn't helping Evelyn either.

LOL!!! I only said I know her rep. I didn't say I want her on Bravo. Though I doubt the BH women can handle her. Heck, Ex Soap Opera Star would have to work to keep up with some messiness to beat Evelyn.

YAY!!!! Someone posted the wedding montage from 3x05!!!

LOL!!! I just went back and saw you mentioned it, too. My bad.

@Faulkner awwww. Nice to see I am not the only one that thought that about Leah last night. I think it was the first time so far this season she was real. And to be fair about LuAnn...I thought she was pretty vicious to Sonja last week and did not like it at all. I know she has belayed Sonja before but this is the first time I thought it was quite nasty. So I was happy Eboni stepped in then. @Cat Full discourse...I...more in hindsight now than back then...loved SB's Carly. As a kid, I HATED SB's Carly so SB did her job extremely well. I think TB's Carly is the first recast on a soap (OLTL was my main soap growing up) that I gave a chance to...helped by they looked so similar to each other enough that my mind accepted it. It also helped that I am a big Bobbie fan so having her around more helped me accept her. I did drop off watching GH for a long while, but seeing old clips and watching TB take Carly and turn her into this independent woman while not losing ANY of her grit that I was used to from SB's Carly...making Carly her own and still a fighter...I cannot help but love her. And what stood out for me is how TB used every word, every syllable to get under an enemy's skin. I loved how she did it. Her elevator talk with Sam about Brenda being a stand out. Sorry off topic...lol. I meant LuAnn. I don't even watch BBW and I know she's a force. They couldn't handle her. lol. Oh...and maybe re: Erika/Tom Docu. Hulu BRITNEY SPEARS docu was pretty good. And I can't wait for the JANET JACKSON one.

I swear does Trina ever get a break? lol.
