THIS.

Annnnd DONE!!! So far Peter has been kidnapped, unmasked, punched, and hit in the back with a crowbar. Well...GOOD START. But that was a pretty good week. Good job double wedding. And I felt even when the other stories...to be fair there was only one other story since the other subplots were tied into the wedding...and that was Nina vs Carly. And that...why Nina should not have said that (and that last frame of CW in tears as Michael basically exiled her from Wiley's life), Carly being smug about it and Michael only kicking her out was cuz it hurt Willow....when he said he was doing what was best for Wiley...does them no favor. I looked at Carly and went BITCA. I did feel WR played Peter too much self-righteous versus broken or delusive. It would have been in his favor to do the latter. And there were hints of delusion that Anna gladly smacked down. And seeing some of Monday now and sorry...this part of the Finn/Jackie/Chase storyline (Dad finding out about the one night stand) SHOULD have played out at the wedding, too. Ewwwww I hope not.

Ewwww She could have old school Sami and drugged them to look like something happened versus that.

NINA SAID WHAT?!? Finola Hughes's tears are breaking my heart. FINALLY!!!! Someone hit Peter! DO IT AGAIN, MAC!!!!

Well...they can stay pressed.

If looks could kill...Peter would be ashes going off of Kelly Monaco's look at the Drew reveal. It does seem like they are picking up all the threads through this wedding (still waiting to see if brainwashed Dante, Franco's memory come into play since that would be the last part of the Peter reveal left to play), but I admit I am disappointed they got almost everything out BUT the Finn/Chase/Jackie secret. They really should have blown all those secrets up. I do like the moment where Maxie got her brain back. When Mac and Scorpio are NOT on your side, yeah there might be some truth to what's going on. Smart girl. Team Dr. O during this. Hopefully, coming out of this her and Anna's rivalry comes back into play. I do have to agree that given all the acting (Kathleen Gati's background action is on point), Wes Ramsey is easily the weakest link. Unfortunate given he is the center of it. Oh...and there was a moment when Ava is talking to Nina when Nina is playing catch up with her. And Nina confirms that Nelle is her daughter to her. It was a moment, but you saw it all over Ava's face...glad for her friend, then thinking about Kiki, seeing the similarity between her and Nina with dead daughters, and then the sadness, empathy, and sympathy at once. Maura West's face played that ooooh so well. LOVE.

@slick jones you have no idea how much I love seeing them together. It seem like ever since Mac became chief and Scorpio the DA that they never have scenes together when I tune in. I was so excited, I sent my BFF (a big Scorpio fan) a picture. Oh, I would kill for a 2 scenes-a-week minimum for them.

DALLAS That's a meh for me. I actually dozed off in the middle of Mama Dee's scene *gasps* Forgive me, Mama Dee!!! It's been a busy work week and constant drama (and apparently some more coming gggrrrr) with my TV system. So as I play catchup on these GH wedding episodes just in case my system goes out again, I figured I would finally write. Which brings us back to the meh... I found myself side-eyeing this episode from go due to the unscheduled skip week. Shades of BH given Brandi's news between episodes. And then Bravo's response to Brandi's news. So the episodes going forward are going to get side-eyes for shifts like the BH episodes once they came back from their 'break.' I saw a few things, but I will wait until next week to see if anything gets confirmed. Sadly though, the break also killed the momentum. Something I felt DALLAS has had so far barring the last episode. I did hope that coming back from the break that maybe it would get back. But...not quite yet. It was just uneven. And for me, that was really because I like some of the ladies and I dislike some of the ladies. And the episode was even out between that. Sadly. During the break, a picture surfaced from an old reality Texas show. And guess who was in it? MAMA DEE and she was sitting right next to TIFFANY MOON!!!!! It warmed my heart because what LeeAndra has been saying about Tiffany IS TRUE. Mama Dee really does see Tiffany as a second daughter and that picture made it so clear. In the world of reality tv, people can too easily say something like ie. Candiace/Wendy on RHOP as best friends when they really met before filming not years ago. So all scene with Tiffany and LeeAndra or them with Mama Dee ring even more true and that was nice to have that confirmed. BRANDI. I know shocking with her first. But I'm sorry, I'm not buying anything. I zoned out or ignored her outright throughout most of the episode. Like I said before, she has taken pages out of RHOP Candiace's playbook and it's soooo transparent to me. So everything from her talk with her husband to the letter to anything coming out of her mouth or attempts to shed that one tear (c) Mariah Huq rang hollow to me. When your BFF is side-eying you in a conversation...yeah you are probably wrong. Whatever, ho. STEPHANIE. Speaking of side eye, look at her calling out her BFF in TH. Now let's see if she keeps that energy. Meanwhile, it was nice to see her talking to Kary's daughter for her. KARY. Lint. KAMERON. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! GURRRRRRRRRRRRRL, THE SWIMSUIT!!!!!!!!!!! HOW DID SHE KNOW??? She was easily comic relief this time around. TIFFANY. I enjoyed everything with her. Especially her with the robot. lol. God, there was so much. It's interesting what she said in light of the recent Harry/Meghan stuff. She cannot change her race...if Brandi is uncomfortable and it is because of THAT, Brandi really really needs to go and look deep within herself and change. If she wants. Meanwhile, Tiffany is a doctor with a great family and those scenes were cute. And she has a great second family in LeeAndra and Mama Dee. And loved Mama Dee speaking true tea by saying those ladies are J-E-A-L-O-U-S. She has everything and the self-confidence they wished they had. She should stay winning. And I stay loving her friendship with LeeAndra. LEEANDRA. I also loved the tea that Stephanie spilled about LeeAndra's shaman. I stay loving Mama Dee with LeeAndra, but it is very interesting how much and how fast LeeAndra goes through money to the point that Mama Dee had to step in. Another layer to the LeeAndra/TheBrother/TheWill storyline. Perhaps she really did run through that money. I also loved Mama Dee call the ladies out...and it looks like she's doing that next week as well. Meanwhile, LeeAndra had Tiffany's back throughout and I loved that and getting the girls to see why Tiffany might have left early. So...fingers crossed the momentum is back next week.

I honestly thought it was Jason so It is giving me 90s DAYS wedding vibes. I keep expecting Susan Banks to pop up to say something about it never, never, never happening this wedding. Oops! Spoke too soon. Here comes Dr. O... ...lol at Charlotte's 'uh oh.'

FINALLY!!! Watching the wedding episodes. And I at least have to say that clever twist seeing Anna/Valentin had some form of a plan after all. I figured it was all just going to be on Dr. O. But thankfully, they tried to do something. A great delay tactic and allows for the wedding to run all week...like soaps used to do with weddings. Good to see Spinelli. Also good that Felicia got a mention. Not to mention seeing Mac and Robert together. Liz, I love you, but shut up.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Well they keep being extremely coy when it comes to Bershan. I say keep manifesting. I would die if they BOTH get apples. ETA: @Faulkner yeah...early reports reported that Eboni and Ramona surprisingly got along. Not sure if it has lasted though.

Well, I do like what I remember of his OLTL run. And I don't remember his first Y&R run being too bad. But I think I was one of the few. Prehaps it was because MAB was out. And I was got the impression in his first run that he seem to care. But I loved Lauren having a story (and Carmine was hot). And I loved there was a teen scene. And it appeared they were using vets. But it's been years since I've seen it. And yeeeeah NO. I regularly watched during DAYS' 50th anniversary. So much potential. But I was OUT when Ciara got raped in the Horton house of all places. I was like...when did he get this...morbid? And his second Y&R has some moments...I've behind, but nothing to write home about. And don't get me started on the fact that some of it is recycled from his 2013 run...erasing all the good things (like characters like Kevin/Chloe gone) that happened since he was there last. And speaking of recycling...as said earlier...I don't like that when writers move to a different show that they recycle some of their plots. Or I guess I should say plots that they are known for writing (RC and his obsession with DID comes to mind). Now, writers moving to other shows and using a character as a trope that they are used to using I can understand. Just put a fresh spin on it. Or even better...try to be different while matching the tone of the show they are writing for.

Yeeeah, I'm just not liking this Cameron/Franco bond...and this scene where Franco was in trance is the reason why. Does this not just prove Jason's point of Franco still being dangerous? Just smh. About to end the month and it's funny how three stories are in this episode (2/25). I know this is leading up to the double wedding and that is totally the A story. Jason vs Cyrus over Cyrus's mom is the B story (and ties in Portia vs Jordan in a separate, but related tangent) And this Ryan story is just starting really with Ava confronting him over the roach message is a C story. Add on Franco/Cameron scenes, Liz/Finn scenes discussing the tumor story and Curtis thinking opening a club (another C story since this is the 2nd time it's been mentioned) and this episode is surprisingly busy given a double wedding is coming.

Well, binging Season 1. And I have to say...that was a pretty good pilot. And that last fight scene was really, really, good. I am also loving the mystery of Alice so far. But as a reader of ALICE IN WONDERLAND and THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, it has been interesting hearing quotes I have not really heard since I was a kid. Just chills.

Yeah I think some of those are returns. I'm fine with that. I know I'll be binging MOESHA and LIVING SINGLE as early as possible in my time.

RHOA Well...apparently I need to find time after I go through the two tabs in Monique's binder to see Kandi's latest SPEAK ON IT where Kenya spilled A LOOOOOOOOT of tea that apparently explained a lot of why some of the drama has been going on that makes no sense since production CUT the scenes that would explain some things going on. Right now as is...well...intrigued here. I think it is clear that Production probably leaked Strippergate. Since the season was dry before allegedly. But if I had to throw it out there, who is to say that Cynthia did not do it? At the time, Cynthia wanted her wedding filmed. And she was been extra thirsty to get attention. Is it far-fetched to think she would leak it. After all, this was the woman that was secretly behind (and she admitted she was behind) the Cookie Lady drama last season. However I agree with @Cheap21. I saw it a little while back, yes on Drew. She is being as messy as her husband. When did Latoya stop being the tryhard and Drew snatched her crown? She was doing a lot to start drama with Kenya. And it seem so obvious. Like her husband. On one hand, I get it. Who has not used Kenya to get storyline? On the other hand, she better be on ready...cuz Kenya will get that a$$ at the reunion...which appears to be getting filmed soon. That said...I cannot say that I didn't love that Drew vs Kenya scene at the restaurant. I hollered and rewinded and hollered some more. I thought this episode was the right amount of fun, drama, humor (I was DEAD at Porsha in Narnia), and I didn't hate any of the solo scenes....other than Amber and Jim...I mean Drew and Ralph. KENYA. Gotta come for that queen. That said...for all her drama, it was nice to see things humanizing Kenya. From her father to the therapy session to her trying to be a friend to Cynthia about the wedding, it has been needed given she has been a bitca on wheels for the last few episodes. And drama was needed and she must have felt good having Tanya run for the mountains in Canada (Girl, bye!!! Even Shamea shaded you on the way out!), but all evil, all the time. No bueno. What I also found interesting was that she really was not paying Porsha any mind...unlike Drew. If anything I felt she was just playing with Drew. For now. CYNTHIA. hAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You would think she would have followed the signs that maybe she should not have the wedding. I'm still curious how they are going to do this. Will it be like how they did LuAnn's wedding to Tom with a before and after? I do love that she has calm the frak down since the start of the season. This felt more like how I would expect Cynthia to be versus how out of character and thirsty she was at the start. I also loved Production picking on her. KANDI. Nothing really. She was just being Greek Chorus this time around. I did see a clip from the SPEAK ON IT where she was reminding me of Candiace when she was making sounds when Wendy was trying to drag La Dame. She had more presence there. PORSHA. I loved that she was bringing so much humor being lost (Two outlet malls and Oz and Narnia...HAHAHAHA) and her holy ghost moment with Drew and Shamea at the clothing store was hilarious. But sorry, I do feel that Porsha being mad at Kenya is darkening her a little bit. She spent waaaay more time talking about Kenya versus Kenya talking about her for example. I want her to keep taking the high road. But she came across extremely pressed. Kinda like... DREW. ...THE MOST PRESSED OF ALL. Kenya was right. They sat there for minutes upon minutes upon minutes and Drew kept bringing their talk at the dinner back to what they were arguing about. It was either squat or it was not. And clearly, it was not. After some time, it was just clear Drew was looking for a moment. And it was a funny moment. But She need to be using that energy on her husband vanishing when he felt like for days on end. Then she was there fanning them flames between Porsha and Kenya AND Porsha and Marlo. I am looking forward to Latoya coming for her in the next few episodes. If she is trying to stay relevant, Drew could start with upping her wig game. Cuz that first wig...not the mention the last one...NO. LATOYA. Meanwhile, this episode, Latoya STEPPED UP her wig game. And she was giving look after look after look. Her with jet-black straight hair was great. The TH was good. And there was another look she had I believe. Her now versus at the start of the season was night and day. Drew, take note. SHAMEA. That shade at Tanya was LOVE. MARLO. I know we are not coming for Marlo? Uh...no. I liked the episode. The momentum has definitely picked up. And it looks like this will continue.

While I have yet to sit down and watch it yet...but have enjoyed today's commentary here travelling between jobs...I figured that given some of today's talk I should add this...early thanks for the links above...

Chad suuuure does look FOINE in that picture with those arms. And Eli...YUM.

Hahahaha!!! Gotta keep them guessing.

My system was down. Anyone watch the premiere?

LOL!!! My bad. The BTS has to do with SLIDERS.

I never got around to watching it to be honest. Iol. I was interested, but never found the time.

I was just thinking of COVEN last week. lol. Great minds. THE WEEK FOR ME... BATWOMAN SEASON 1 WESTWORLD SEASON 2 MERLIN SEASON 5...if my system gets fixed. WASTELAND (only one season and I never got to see it from Kevin Williamson of SCREAM/DAWSON'S CREEK)

Close. Miranda's 'fake an O' boyfriend. As much as I loathe him now, I have to give him credit where it's due. It was pretty consistent. From MY SECRET IDENTITY which was popular to SLIDERS (my uber sci fi show) which has not aged well, but has stood the test of time given how many shoutouts it gets at the randomist of places while he was on for 4 years until BTS drama to CROSSING JORDAN. And let's not forget being Neve Campbell's bf in SCREAM 2. That is a good run. But...no matter how much he cuddles up to Andy Cohen...'fetch' STILL ain't happening with him.

One hand it does look interesting. On the other hand, did it have to be THAT man?
