And then Ashley and Derek did too, so that balances it back down for you, I'm sure hahaha.

I've gotta say, I know Bill is a dog, but I secretly like him. The actor is good, and the character is strong, powerful, but flexible.

Naomi looks good today! Glad to see Dani have a scene with Bill and not be conflicted about any lingering feelings about him.

LOL - love this!

Natalia Cigliuti (ex-Anita Santos, AMC) and Jonathan Bennett (ex-JR Chandler, AMC) were both on tonight's Dr. Odyssey. It is a 2-part episode, so presumably they'll both be on next week's episode.

This crap will not age well when we look back. There's one thing to be subtle, but you're taking any emotion out of the storyline and scene when you have a broken character picking up a Febreeze can and reminiscing about it like it meant something. They gotta get better at this.

Ugh - on now for me too, but I don't want to watch since I missed the first 18 minutes. Now I'll just watch tonight on Paramount.

Ohhh - I didn't realize that's how it worked. So if it's fully pre-empted, they just air next day, good to know!

LOL! Yeah, I'm annoyed, but I'll just watch on Paramount Plus later, I guess.

Ohhh this is great tea - thanks for posting! I knew Drew had some stuff in there she didn't want out. I'd love to know how much she's making off RHOA.

Hahaha are you doing a '93 rewatch?? Wow - so Reva was married to the father and his two sons. I guess I can't be surprised with GL and the citizens of SF. I'm currently watching Dinah and Blake, who are both each other's stepmothers AND stepdaughters... you have Alan-Michael who date Dinah, married Blake, and then married both sisters Harley and Lucy... I could go on and go. Someone, maybe you, told me very early on that GL is very incestuous and I 100% see it now haha.

WHOA! I wasn't expecting a new housewives series! That's exciting... Love seeing Ladies of London back! Wonder if anyone from the original cast will be back. Seems like they're retooling Shahs of Sunset and moving it to The Valley franchise, which I guess makes sense, given Shahs has been off the air for so long now. I know MJ and Reza were filming the reboot. Wife Swap, now that should be interesting too, but I bet this and Love Hotel are replacing any shot of UGT coming back.

Happy to see this! I know, I'm getting the sense they expected Beaty to stay if they were going the rehabilitation route with Abby. A few weeks ago, when Michelle was dressing sexy for her date with J, she let Abby try on a dress and Rick then taught her what dating was like, and she went in and kissed him. They were clearly setting up the Abby/Rick story, but then suddenly it has pivoted to Rick falling back in love with Annie and trying to convince her not to go to Josh since he and Reva are secretly meeting at the cabin (Annie is getting unhinged here). But with Rick focused on Annie again, it would have left room for Abby to work with Brent, had Beaty stayed (at least this is what I'm assuming based on what I'm seeing). Rick is also now in Blake's orbit - they both just got in a bar fight post-Ross/Amanda kissing and Annie rejecting Rick's advances. They're together and Blake is now coming onto Rick while they drink... uh oh.

Haha - I actually think I've seen areola in one of Porsha's confessional looks.

LOL - this is a perfect description, and that's what I loved about it! May be a bit campy, but it immediately caught my attention in a good way. I'm not familiar with the Fishing Trip storyline, I'll have to look that up. I've noticed that about Josh, which has made him less attractive to me overall. He just yells a lot when he's not happy. Wow, Reva was married to HB! LOL - "Always... eventually, and again"

I’m up to Feb. 20, 1996, which means I’ve officially watched a little over a full year (Feb. 10, 95 - Feb. 19, 96)! 🥳 Everyone found out Nadine was the body in the lake, and what a heartbreaking scene watching Frank put the pieces together and realizing the dead body’s ring and jewelry was Nadines. He broke down and then had to tell Buzz. So sad and heartbreaking. The funeral was nice, but small; I’m curious to see if anyone else in SF hears or reacts to her death or if that funeral was basically the end of Nadine. Eleni had a really powerful episode when she found out Nadine died. She yelled into the rain alone, crying and asking God why this all happened. It was pretty powerful and the best material nuEleni has gotten in the year she’s been with the show. Nola’s son, J, just showed up to town. His father kicked him out for hitting on his 20-something girlfriend (blah). Michelle instantly locked her eyes on him at Company and she starts dressing sexier to get him to ask her on a date. They go and he takes her to the lighthouse where Brent is holding Lucy. J forces himself a little too hard on Michelle, which upsets her, and Brent sees this and gets angrier because women keep teasing men with their sexual advances. J and Michelle escape the lighthouse unscathed, but Michelle is unsure about J now. A few days later, J identifies Brent on the TV at the mall, while Brent is there, and calls him out. Brent runs and accuses J of stealing his wallet, escapes and J is brought into the police station where Nola bails him out after convincing everyone that he really saw Brent. I do enjoy how they intertwine all these characters into this larger storyline. At long last, the Brent storyline wrapped and what a wild ride the last couple weeks were at the lighthouse! I was very surprised to see Beaty come back for 2 episodes in the lighthouse, and then Wolf came back again for a few more episodes after that before Beaty finally finished it out. They must have shot some scenes out of order, which is a bit jarring, but I’m glad Beaty got to finish out the last few climactic episodes at the lighthouse and jail. There was a very romantic scene with Lucy and A-M held captive, alone, and saying their vows to each other. I’m just happy they’re finally able to be happy, free of Brent/Marian and the HIV scare. The Brent/Marian saga was very enjoyable, but I don’t think pieces of it were fully baked. It was clear they made a few things up along the way, like the mother’s mental/physical abuse and his mental illness/personality disorder. It definitely set up a potential return storyline that Beaty ultimately declined, but overall it seemed like the first 9 months was just a mad frat biz daddy who was set on revenge vs. a real mental illness that developed in the last 3 months. But yeah, I really enjoyed it overall and thought the acting was top notch amongst Frank, Sonia, Ric and the other supporting actors. This storyline was the reason I started my GL journey and it didn’t disappoint - I’m hooked on Springfield now! The Blake/Amanda feud is heating up and I’m enjoying it. Amanda is teaming up with Dinah, and their antics included framing Blake for locking Amanda up in a warehouse and almost dying from hypothermia. Blake got arrested and put into the jail cell next to Brent Lawrence, who was either pretending or really believing he’s still Marian (his last few scenes!). He introduces himself to Blake and offers her a back massage through the cell bars and she freaks out - so funny! I still need to know what secret Amanda and Matt have from their days in CA. Oh and now Amanda followed Ross to his cabin and Ross just willingly kissed Amanda, just as Blake got to the cabin and watched through the window! This should be good… Finally, the other big storyline is Reva and the fight for custody over Marah/Shane. The judge eventually awards custody of the kids to Josh, but requires Annie to leave the house and live somewhere else given the testimony given about her alcoholism. Of course I’m very sad for Annie, but I can see the crazy in her coming out more and more. The performances by Zimmer, Watros and Newman are wonderful, but I can’t help but wonder if the old Reva/Josh fans were pissed at this storyline or not. I just feel like if your wife/mother comes back from the dead years later, there would be more discussions and less fighting. They went too quickly into a nasty custody battle and everyone hating Reva like she’s this huge villain (having Alan in her ear hasn’t helped). I just wish things would have gone differently here, but I’m still curious to see where it goes…

Oh no! Did you not like the Susan character? She intrigued me from that one episode I skimmed through. What didn't you like about her?

Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison... but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha. Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.

Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick! I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.

I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too: this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped. But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.

Haha - my bad Beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace by Anita. Effective way to pull on our emotions, especially watching Nicole and Kat cuddle together on the couch.

Wait, did I miss something - didn't last Friday's episode end with Eva arriving at a man's doorstep? But here she was with Kat the full time. Oh wait, was that the previews I'm thinking of? Haha, oops. I can't believe Leslie locked Eva out of the damn house!

Ohhh Anita is not messing around. I fear a pissed off Anita.

LOL at Leslie's reactions and words to pissed off Martin. Great scenes and well-acted by all.

Not to hijack the thread, but was that character Justine? I just found this interview online with Logan and see what you're talking about - wow! http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/chat85.html
