OC Now that my system has been fixed and I guess updated...I started with this first. This past week episode was more of the same. I didn't dislike it either. I didn't completely like it either. Braunwyn gave a set of interviews this past week and if she is telling the truth about what's coming with one of her sons of how this group is going to react to it...I will be VERY triggered. Because as it stands right now, Braunwyn vs everybody appears to be this season arc so far. ANOTHER gangup. And the reason for it is very petty on one hand, but very OC on the other. Because I'm definitely not here for Kelly getting married. So...with the exit of Vicki and Tamra and the advantages of this being a transitional season...it looks like the ball is about to be dropped. BRAUNWYN. I don't at all remember finding her husband attractive last season. Perhaps it's the scruff or just the pandemic, but he's been looking doable. That said...knowing what's coming up with the two of them, it's been nice to see her holding her hand as Braunwyn deals with her sobriety. Meanwhile, I am sure she will get a handle on being sober, but now she is just a mess. And since we all know that vow renewals are the kiss of death on these shows...well... But still, she was trying to make amends so I'll give her more time to get there. SHANNON. Again I am going to be like a broken record. Happy Shannon is a better Shannon to watch. I think she did say that she thought Gina's house was small. But I believe she doesn't remember saying it. She is so off in her own little world I think she really does not believe she said that. That said...I did not like that she was trying to start drama for the sake of it with 'Lemonade Boy.' Braunwyn did not realize that was her new man's son. That was that. But she was carrying on. Deflection much. EMILY. Well she is a lawyer. So I guess I should expect her to be a snake. Shame I liked nice, but firm Emily. She was funny with Kelly in the car. But her doing her bone carrier act and then trying to be sympathic to Braunwyn's flight...uhhh does make her sympathic, but fake. GINA. Surprisingly she did not bug me this episode. And she at least tried to be mature enough to hear Braunwyn out. Not sure if she can co-exist with her ex-husband. But we will see. KELLY. Other than the car scene, meh. Not here for her acting like Co-Vid is a hoax. ELIZABETH. A breath of fresh air and yet so Vicki 2.0. A hoot. After watching the Season 1 marathon...same. Some of the best housewives scenes are scenes where the history between the friends show.

Oh, he's going away. May it only be dramatic for HIM, not for US. Hehe. He's speaking the language I was speaking by way of Mariah. GTFO.

Yeah...watching now and these last few episodes, I don't see it happening now either. And I'm looking forward to Monique's receipts.

Well apparently Andy Cohen said they are not trying to change the cast for Season 6. But we know how trustworthy he can be.

As the unofficial co-worker trainer who has had to train co-workers after the manager who never appreciated my merit (8 plus years in the restaurant business) had her underqualified favorites train them, I definitely know the frustration and embarrassment when everyone around you knows your worth BUT your higher management and they do nothing. While I left that job a year ago next week, I do admit I took great pleasure showing how much weight and power I held back for years on my way out the door. Superiority has its advantage. Thank you for sharing your story, Mike. I took it to my heart. It really resonated and I wanted to reply sooner than now. Like you I had loved soaps when I was young. Grandma and Mom always sending me to nap (and me not wanting to) when Y&R or AMC or GH came on. So I remember images here and there. OLTL became my first and favorite soap...Viki and her alters (and Dorian and Joey) did me in. So as I grew older, I wanted to write for soaps. Well, I always wanted to write. And soaps was one of my interests. So I did apply for the writing programs. Back when they were around. The runaround I used to get from them was crazy. But I guess the companies knew that they would be shut down by the time I was submitting. I moved out here to California in 2005 to get my feet wet, but to also see about writing programs out here. The issue that I've always had was that did I really want to live in LA. I know one should go where the work is, but while I might thrive socially there, I was not sure if I would thrive professionally there. LA taking your soul and all that. Still...I decided to keep submitting. I am based in San Diego so if I should ever get in, then I would make a concrete decision about moving. But life took twists and turns. With this crazy year, I admit that it's been on my mind again. I have still submitted out to writing programs over the years. It was the reason I came back out to California after I left in 2010. Technology has changed. lol. But there has been a lot more of who you know and loopholes that were not out there when I first started to submit. And one of my worries has been what you were discussing. Life experiences has made me very colorblind and judging people on their merit, not where they come or their skin color. But I've become more realistic. If this year has taught me anything, it would be that not everyone sees people that way. I am still doing well, branching out to new projects and avenues this year than I have in a while, but...if I branch out to LA how hard will it be to get people to see you on your merit if they are not even willing to let you get your foot in the door due to your skin?

SLC Oooo so Lisa is LVP BH Season 1? I could be here for that. However, that does not sound good that she doesn't remember. Who to believe? Wait...Whitney and Heather are cousins?

No...he doesn't. And le sigh. Not surprised by the police chief in Arkansas AT ALL. Would love to move my mother out of there sometimes.

Sorry to hear the sad news @Juliajms. My condolences.

Same. One of these days I'm going to be able to binge the first seasons of NY and I will be shocked at how she started out because I love how she is now. SEASON 1 OF POTOMAC ON NOW!!!

Hehe YES!!!

Yeah...SNL is always good like that. And look at her!!!! Giving Olivia Pope realness!!

I saw this on my way to work and hollered. Same. Me and one of my customers were dancing at one point. My co-workers were like looord.

A good start. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As soon as I get out of work...shots for everyone!!! At home of course. PS. Love the new signature.

Someone online was just wondering where LuAnn's thoughts laid. Well timed.

OMG!!!! YES!!! That's my level of truth, joy, and petty!!! LOVE IT!!

THIS. And he found out on the GOLF COURSE???

Nice cover. Yep. I believe it.

And what a nightmare it was. Time to start waking up.

Same. And regardless of what's been going on at work, I know I'm going to be clowning and happy all d#$% day now. Where's the alcohol?

Amen. Speak on it, Cher. As for me to Trump now that I can...

Amen. Thank you. A proper mail taskmaster is DEFINITELY needed.

SLC I like her already.

YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! The real work will be ahead. But RIGHT NOW...in the moment...

Ooooh...love the sample on this song.

First of all, I am happy I saw Lizzie as well. And I don't plan on watching BH next season, but I definitely would watch Kathy going after Ex Soap Star. POTOMAC MEANWHILE...GET HER, KAREN!!! And ROBYN...I am SURPRISED at you. Go 'head.
