Liberty City

It very much was a P&G holiday-esque episode. Reminded me a bit more of As the World Turns with the Snyder family, etc. I loved it.

RHOP fans: Gizelle and Wendy will be on Beyond the Gates next week.

date: Tuesday, November 25, 2025 | Teresa Zimmerman, Judy Tate | Michael V. Pomarico Bradley is an ass-grabber? Well, that is a new fact we did not know about! But happy to see Samantha making some kind of an effort to not be an annoying brat. The country club is popping! I did not think it would be that filled on the holiday, but it is beautiful to see. Joey using Uptown as his dinner spot with Vanessa? Why do I feel like he fully paid off the owner to ensure it was only him and Vanessa? Love seeing Ashley and Jan cooking together. Gives me memories of cooking with my mother. Dani is giving "Evil Queen" in her outfit today, and her death glare at Andre for questioning if she knew how to cook proves that point even more. It is cute seeing Eva and Ted connecting and getting to know each other. So precious. I love how organised Mona is about her Black Friday shopping. That would be me if I did shop on Black Friday. Not the con artist child bride already trying to stake a claim on her next prey once her husband is dead. Hilarious. So precious seeing the Richardson Smiths share what they are grateful for, and I love seeing June welcomed into that. That poor bird did not stand a chance with Dani cooking. It truly did not. She should stick to simpler recipes. Dana you cannot even let one day go by without resting on your way. Let it go, Elsa. Let it go. Vanessa is going to make Joey open a restaurant and then ensure it fails... right? That is where her head is going right now. I am calling it. I love that everyone pays attention to Vernon's speech at the country club on Thanksgiving. It shows how revered he is. And what a powerful speech it is. Wow. It moved me. Notes: Much like yesterday's brilliant work of Sara A. Bibel and Cheryl L. Davis, Zimmerman and Tate are paired exceptionally well as breakdown and scriptwriter, respectively. They are both underrated. Hello Cascade, and welcome to the sponsorship family! However, I do not care... RINSE BEFORE PUTTING IN THE DISHWASHER! Did we use the term "spatchcocked" on television? I love it. It is awesome that Dani's kitchen appears to be fully functioning; we do not have that on the other soaps like this. It is amazing.

The only time he was mentioned was when Skye came back in 2012 (her final visit) when Blair was on, and Carly/Skye saw Alcazar and Blair saw Tomás, and that whole abandoned storyline.

I found the wedding episodes beautiful, aside from Phillis' involvement. So grateful this is how they did the wedding, too; just wish they'd done some kind of flashback(s) when things were being talked about by Gina and Nina, etc.

Very happy to see Beyond the Gates ticking up/staying stable.

date: Monday, November 24, 2025 | Sara A. Bibel, Cheryl L. Davis | Steven Williford Dani is on the up and up of positivity. Nice seeing this from her. William Hamilton, stop eyeing your ex-wife. You made your [wrong] choice and now you must live with it. Whew... Jacob is coming on strong with his father and Marcel. That is it, Jacob: stay on Marcel's neck right now. I like that Bill is asking Tomas to step up to the plate at the law practice. After all, it could be his one day, especially since Naomi has made it known she is not interested. So, Luke Hawthorne works at Detroit P.D.? Perhaps he could come to the DMV area in 2026 and replace his father. You ARE the selfish one, you spoilt bitch. You want it all about you, and that is disgusting. Get over yourself. Marcel... what have you got up your sleeve where Dana is concerned? Sir, go home. The way in which Elon is talking about Izaiah makes me feel like there is something deeper there than Izaiah being a teen. Good on you Nicole for thinking Ted's idea is a good one. That is what I like hearing! And I would kick her out of every family dinner for good to save myself the migraine of listening to her whining. Eva and Izaiah definitely spark with chemistry. I just hope it does not blow up in either of their faces. Notes: Some great script work from Bibel and Davis; these two continue to work well together. A nice nod to the Mike Davis lawsuit in today's opener. David Lami Friebe (Izaiah) gotta go. The bobblehead is too much and is beyond ridiculous at this point.

Once again, erasure. Not surprised. 🙄

Not surprised, given her current primetime gig(s).

Was it John Ritter dedication month on set? First Amy Yasbeck at Spencer Publications, and now Amy Davidson at Forrester Creations. If Kaley Cuoco shows up, I will scream bloody murder.

Been dying to see Billy Flynn's second opening shot and finally saw it today... and it's so much better than the main one they use.

And, if that's the case, then Emily is also not a Quartermaine.

And yet, she's a ten times better character than BLQ wishes she were. But not us erasuring adoptive parents. That's a very... interesting POV and speaks a lot on one's view of things.

BLQ just gotta go. Bring on the Wards and Skye. Lmao.

Brook Lynn? A sympathetic heroine? 🤣 In her wildest dreams and highest neck-line.

The switch-up on Chase, to me, is to have Nathan be the esteemed detective, while Chase is the one who looks like a fool. Frank's favourite detective is back.
