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.

Well, Shady Phae Phae is a Scorpio, Cat. So they are big on the payback when crossed. But I don't know if I feel it was ended too soon. It really all started in Season 7 at that dinner where Kenya confronted her about Mr. Chocolate and almost got a purse in the face. That was also the beginning of Freck and Frack since Porsha started planning seeds to drive a wedge between Phaedra and Kandi then...not helped by Kandi and Todd taking Apollo side. Season 8 brought us watching that friendship slowly but surely falling apart and then we had Season 9 where it seem like they were openly at the same time subtly going after each other. That was a relatable and thus organically done arc. I agree that they have enough unfinished business that it would be interesting to bring Shady Phae Phae back. Perhaps she will appear as a friend by the end of the current season since they are still filming. But I felt that feud ending at the right time because that left people wanting MORE of it. In any case, I suspect things are about to get messy. OC My internet is acting up again so I haven't watched it completely yet but Braunwyn is being messy, but understandable as she struggles with this new her. I do feel Tamra should be around though. It is like a missing piece since she is stirring all of this BTS. BH So you hear the rumor from a blogger that Kathy is coming on because she plans to take Ex Soap Star down as payback for how she treated Kim who as we know Kathy is close to. Someone pointed out that Kathy was getting along with everyone (I hear especially Gacelle) but was not following Ex Soap Star.

Ooooooooooh @YRBB!!! I agree with you. Say Something was all right, but it didn't hit the spot complete. Magic though...mmmmm YES. I got tears of joy and excitement (and it released at the right time for me) to fall into it completely. It reminded me of Cher and BELIEVE and STRONG ENOUGH. From the moment I heard SE, it resonated and I wanted a video for it sooo bad. Though I liked BELIEVE and the video was tops with me, SE was the fave off that cd. And at 2am one morning, VH1 dropped it as I was about to go to bed...and I went to the club that weekend to dance. It was that simple. That's how I feel about Magic. The headpieces. How beautiful she looked. The slinky/sexy vibe you mentioned. The dancers posing at the end. LOVE.

Hehe. Third time's the charm. With SUPERGIRL ending with Season 6, I figured that I will finally try to work through Season Four. Given the current political climate, it definitely fits a 'liiiiiittttle' better.

And the same thing is...this could have been avoided...for BOTH of them. Just watching Candiace being a better (and independent) version of herself could have been interesting. She proved that at the start of the season with everyone attacking her. How she handled her tension with Ashley was classy versus last season where she was Ashley 2.0. She still had her temper, but she was managing it so she could still be fiery. Meanwhile, she could have been focusing on ways to be independent of her mother. She could...MAYBE...be a mentor on the pageant circuit...focused on her music like she is now...help out at Chris's...and STILL had some drama. She got a LOT of goodwill and that could have led to other things. But that girl in that after show...ugh. So over her and ready for Monique to get her together verbally. And Wendy...she could be using her platform more for sure. There have been great moments for that here. And the production well timed that WINE WITH WENDY given that we here in the U.S. are dealing with the elections. And thanks to this year, I definitely want to be focusing more on politics on the local level and look at what Wendy was discussing...THAT VERY THING. She talks about empowering women...well...MORE SHOWING, NOT TELLING. Or we could be exploring Nigerian culture, and how is it different interacting here in Potomac vs there. Dive into the 'dirty' secret of why his foine husband's family are not talking to him. Okay...too much, but ORGANIC drama. Not being transparent and going for the alpha dog. That is part of why fans do not like her. Things to make her look human. Relatable. She should have taken notes from the ladies of MARRIED TO MEDICINE honestly. They keep it real, good, bad, AND ugly. Instead...she is getting played. I agree. With the reunion coming...I am worried that maybe this group might have gotten toxic. We'll see. There have been moments where this show could have gotten dark, but they manage to turn it around. Hehe. You are making me think of that Kyle gif. Well at least with Braunwyn, she is dealing with the withdrawl so I can get why she might be coming across the way she is. She will get that in time and be able to express herself better. Well, I think the real drama starts tonight with Kelly and her Co-Vid comments. We'll see. BH I wish I could say I care about Erika. Well... And now...when was the last time two HOUSEWIVES shows aired back to back? I am thinking POTOMAC SEASON 3 with RHOA? Am I wrong? I'll give them this much...the Green Eyed Bandits definitely do it better than Kyle and her shadow.

Indeed. Moving on then. Nice to see everything nearing a conclusion of sorts, cautiously optimistic.

Yes, just checking in from time to time today, this has been greatly discouraging for sure. Hopefully when everything is said and done, we can (and will) be able to move forward.

Well, I could be shady, but you have that down for now thank you. Not all of us are minute to minute while we are surviving. You don't like it, I think you have found the block button by this point.

Same. I entered into this year wanting to progress to a different understanding of my place in the world. In wanting to do better. To maybe see people in a better life. But all I've seen now makes me think of a time when I was a young old man in the club in the restroom and overhearing someone say...knowing I was in there...that the one thing he didn't like in the clubs was all the...well, you can guess which word he used...that taking all the young white people away from them. No matter that I was liked better. No matter that I worked out and was not potbellied. No matter that he had to buy who he wanted. Buy, cuz that personality clearly was not all that. All he saw was my skin. And this year showed me that there are more people than I've ever thought were out there like that. Wow. They really hate us that much? So much to kill and then it is about all lives mattering and not wearing a mask when they should be. I cannot even go out and deal with the world and go to work without worrying about my mother, brother's new family, or my sister without seeing maskless people, parading their previlege. And I know who is encouraging them. But you can't really encourage someone if it was not already there. Yeah...the rose colored glasses are gone. Which would be karma given how many he willingly let die.

Yaaay!!! Also good to hear. I was worried about how it worked and my internet was not helping...but it was pretty easy to check. I'm more worried about the people are still getting ballots late. At my job they were still filtering in.
