THIS. HAHAHA She wasn't the only one... He has aged well.

Nope. Not yet. lol. See? I feel the opposite, I live for Sheila in all of her delusions. Though I think it's time for her next step.

1-11 I seem to recall around this time last year, every story was building to Febuary Sweeps. And even if it was minor movement, it was MOVEMENT. There was a nice flow, a rhythm that was going on. From Tracy's return in December to building to the double wedding. It was fascinating to watch. I am really not feeling anything with that flow this year. This week is off to a great start as people continue to deal with Luke's death. We even got a Lucas mention. Since he's taking care of Bobbie. It would be nice to see him though since it sound like he was more in town than just transferred out of town. Especially with Brad out and about. That said...uhhhhh NO to Britt and Austin. As outcasts, I don't mind them being friends, but romantic...NO. And the writers are still trying to sell Austin and Maxie. Also no. So we are not really going to get a new reveal on Curtis's Dad until February Sweeps, are we? Le sigh. As far as what I've liked lately. THE TEENS. I thought the Curtis's Dad storyline has stalled, but this cabin storyline has stalled as well. THANKFULLY, they still have things going on. I am totally going through Sprina withdrawal, but I liked that apparently as Spencer's penance he will be working for Ava, which puts him in Trina's orbit more. And Esme stay mad on that. I also liked the writers have acknowledged the teens have been busy with college in some scenes. And speaking of Esme...FINALLY!!! They gave a hint of what makes her tick, and also smart to connect it to Cameron. This teen set definitely has legs and I wonder if the cabin storyline will be set for Febuary. And speaking of legs...yeah, I am here for the messiness of Carly/Sonny/Nina. I live for Carly vs Nina scenes and loved the ones at the Crimson office. But that was a weak slap given Carly have given much worse. And I hope next time when it happens...and there will be a next time...Nina slaps her back. Meanwhile, Sonny, Carly, and the meal was sooo him giving off Mike vibes. And I am ashamed to admit it, but his demeanor was such a puppy and he was looking kinda foine. I really did not see any of Sonny in that scene. It just seem like Mike to me. And I wish Carly wouldn't push them together. She is going to lose doing that. Laura vs Victor has so much potential. may it continue.

Yes, Keri did commit suicide if I remember correctly. Wasn't the conclusion to that 'Who Killed Vinny?' mystery on B&B recently was that Vinny killed himself and framed Liam so Thomas could have Hope?

Well, I expect Twitter will be a firestorm tonight. Meanwhile, like @Chris B I want to see how Mary vs Jeannie with the glass throw goes down or if it will be edited out now. I will probably finish out the season myself, but I see people are boycotting. Meanwhile...Meredith tweet THIS.

Sad, but true. Unless Jen just quit outright. Probably won't happen but I expect some backlash.

If this girl don't quit... Oh, lord, I hope they don't go the Brandi route. If they ain't careful, they will share the same fate as DALLAS...

Yes, I remember that Sussman interview. And she did indeed say something to that effect. And I liked that Ravi/Ashley, but I could see why she mentioned that he was a stop to her next love interest. Which I did feel like was Graham. The actor and Eileen I felt had great adversarial chemistry and it would have been nice to see where it went. But I also felt that it would have been better if he had been poisoning Dina rather than going the declining health route. But I would have like to see what she could have done if she had more time and if Mal Young had not done his coup.

I stay loving how she tries something new with each album (I found BIONIC...especially the hidden track BIRDS OF PREY...extremely underrated and ahead of its time). And her red hair has been breathtaking to behold in each new video, but it really pops here...

SMH. Mess.

Yes that backlash is going to be bad.

SLC Jen (and Meredith did as well) speaks... Also hinted that due to her speaking out, Jen might not be returning for Season 3. Meanwhile.... RHOA

Same.

Well damn. I just made it in from the bar and already know this news is going to hurt.

LOL!!! See? I remember Sami and Eric being old enough to know better. After a period of time. That is how I am feeling about those two. Especially Steffy going on and on about Taylor should save Ridge before he gets wrapped up in another of Brooke's scandals. Cassandra she may be, but Steffy still needs to shut up.

1-14 Now, Brooke, you know you want to a ride on the Deacon train. Forget Ridge. lol. That said...this week was pretty meh. I see what you all are about with Thomas and Steffy. I love seeing JMW, but no...they are grown and need to butt out of Brooke/Ridge drama. It is giving shades of Sami/Eric back in the 90s with DAYS OF OUR LIVES. So Paris's mom is a doctor. Sounds like a keeper for a while. Because a doctor is at least around LA.

I know I'm going to read that article myself eventually but I'm not looking forward to it. While I'm still a fan of the work, yeah I'm cannot believe how oblivious he is. Then again, a person who would let an article like that be released on MLK Day screams tone deaf. Especially in these times. The irony that he has become a dinosaur in today's tv culture where he was once the trendsetter is not lost on me. Oh, well...at least I still have Pierce Brown and FARSCAPE to inspire me.

@Cat yes. For all of Andy's many flaws, he genuinely liked Mama Elsa. So I have to get soft over that scene for sure. Oooooooooooo tea!!! Boring stuff perhaps (thought I'm sure Mary would have kept it interesting given some of the best SLC one on one scenes were Mary scenes with surprise family members), but would prove that she was showing her life if they were shown. Humanizing her a lot. That's shame really.

Speaking of Miami (which reunion films today, right?)...awwwww

The sad thing is...that is not the WORST of the posts she did. Good luck sweeping that under the rug. Aka. finish the deep dive. Over her. ETA: Yes, Season 3 did start filming this week. And from all the posts I saw earlier, it does sound like if anyone is itching to say something about it...it's Meredith. So can't wait until she gets permission to.

OC I guess I should get this out of the way first. I think at this point we as an audience all know that these trips are Production paid. Meaning...whether someone likes it or not...ALL the cast members are going to show up. Usually. So I couldn't help but giggle at some times and roll my eyes at other the very idea that Heather thought she had final say on who could and could not come on 'her' trip. While yes, Production was happy to have Heather back to bring some class back to OC after last season, Production also wants one thing: DRAMA. Noella...brings that in SPADES. And so it begins. The cast trip. And we are going into it with a clear theme. Heather vs Noella. Everyone else is stuck in the middle. Other than Jen being for sure Team Heather, it was interesting to see how Emily, Gina, and Shannon would scramble about since they have some form of loyalty (or agenda) with both of the about to feud Housewives. Thirsty or not, Noella is bringing it. And since Jen is not developed enough to have what started as the start of a petty feud, I can totally see Noella aiming for the Queen for yet another petty feud to keep herself relevant. Sadly for Heather, since she has nothing going on, a petty feud works for her as well. Clearly, Heather is clever enough to see this so thus we have this petty feud at the dinner table. Not as hilarious as Selfiegate, but has the makings of something to do since Nicole oh so flopped. So badly Noella AND Heather shaded her. THINGS I LIKED. A GAME OF CHESS OR JUST BAD WRITING? I think what stuck out for me that made me think about this was Gina meeting with Heather at the beginning to ask for a favor. Given all we knew about Heather, we knew she had already started to freeze Noella out. From talking to Nicole, to getting Emily and Gina in line, she thought she would put the nail in the coffin by the introduction of 'the gift to Max...which was porn?' On one hand, what parent would not grab their pearls at that. On the other hand, it was a well-played move. Until Gina was insisted on adding Noella to the trip. AKA Production is using Gina as a voice to say...she's coming...here's your loophole to make it sound like you change your mind and showed some 'forgiveness' or ELSE. And THAT you could see written all over Heather's face as she noted Gina's insistence. Again, well-played. And then later on...Noella was in her confessional, mentioning how Nicole was running around to all the girls and talking crap. Hmmm...I wonder how she could know? *cough*Production*cough* Even better, she would know since Production did that with her...TO HEATHER AT SUSHI NIGHT. The cherry on top...we as the audience saw Nicole doing just that with Emily and Jen at the start of the episode. Again...very, very well-played. Production is truly playing the Vet against the Newbie extremely well. But...who is playing who? THE POKE. I get a giggle each and every time Noella is allowed to mention She Who Shall Not Be Named. It shades her each and every time since she sooo wanted to stay on the show. THE DINNER. Nothing like a dinner to get a petty feud going. And over a shot? Really? Truly? SMH. I just felt that Heather was just looking at anything to get mad at Noella mad over. Noella, as usual, was NGAF. Meanwhile, everyone not Jen was on pens and needles. BYE, FELICIA. And the fading away of Nicole has already begun. *shrugs* Oh, well. I felt Noella nailed that when she said Nicole is only being used to iced her out. Instead, Nicole played herself. Oops. THINGS I DID NOT LIKE STAR OF THE SHOW. It's sad that...at the moment...the fun did not start until Noella got there though we as the audience were with the girls from getting on the plane to when she arrived. She has really stole Heather's thunder, hasn't she, with her thirsty self. Again...Oops. Good start to the trip.

I am reading the removed stuff right now and YES I see how bad it was. And it's been there the whole time. She clearly messed with the wrong one on this. This deep dive I've been doing has been surprising and disturbing, overshadowing OC tonight. Almost. Hot tea indeed. I wonder the same as well re: Bravo. Especially since Page Six got ahold of it. And TMZ a few hours back. Its reach is definitely growing. Oh...? Is that WHY (outside of Jen's hilarious response) none of the girls have said anything? Uh oh?

Thank you! I seem to have found the person who found out about Jeannie and about to do a deep dive of it play by play because it looks like a whole mess and I'm seeing even more of Jeannie's posts that are making me see red, but it's a LOT.

Yep. And cheering on people being run down...uuuhhh NO. And even as I type, MORE outlets are picking this up as well. I do find it odd that they (and online peeps) are taking their time exposing it though. The fact that it's PAGE SIX, and reading the article earlier it is clear, means that they did their research and came with receipts a plenty. The very idea of a smoking gun versus some of the hearsay that has been going on. And there is no way that was not posted without malice versus said in ignorance. She's done.

But...Craig and Nancy was one of my favorite scheming duo due to the talent, the writing ('what a bitca' re: Nurse Ali's mom always comes to mind), and how unconventional they were. It best be a good shocker.
