I think I screamed out loud when Kristina mentioned the center (“Corinthos-Davis House!”). At least she said “queer” and not “LGBTQIA+,” which they made poor Mansi struggle with for her first 6 months on the show. Also, why build a new tennis center in Marco’s honor if you’re not going to ask Sidwell to pay for it? I assume Sonny is bankrolling this entire operation single-handedly?

Speaking of taping schedule, it’s becoming clearer and clearer that Ezra basically exists so that Genie could block-shoot many weeks’ worth of scenes with only him (and occasionally Lulu) and then bounce.

It’s bizarre that Joss, although no longer an active WSB agent, is investigating what happened to Emma’s grandmother on her own. Make the frenemies team up begrudgingly.

Laura is going to get Ezra killed, isn’t she?

Dull episode today. So much recapping in the dialogue! I wonder if we’re nearing the end of Ezra Boyle.

Oh no, it’s Gloria Vanderbilt, out for revenge!

It also lampshades one of the show’s inherent structural flaws, which is that “the mob,” in the sense that we’re given to understand Sonny’s criminal operation, hasn’t really been a thing in the Eastern US since the 1990s.

Gio looked like he got lost on the way to audition for the YA reboot of Cruising.

Some bizarre costume choices today. Kristina’s dress made it look as though she had hair on her chest. Jacinda looked like Kim Cattrall in Mannequin. Gio’s leather shirt—come to think of it, why was just about everyone in leather?

Echoing this—I think Hansis has been a huge upgrade all the way through. Lucas seems like a real person and not just another in the stone-faced hunk brigade (apologies to Ryan Carnes).

We need to get Michael and Willow hate-[!@#$%^&*] again already.

Agree with this—I thought these scenes had spark and tension. There’s no easy way out for either Britt or Joss. (I am also the weirdo that enjoys both of these characters and performances, however.)

LMAO talk about a show that’s in a permanent lull.

Thank you for the memory refresh; I’d completely forgotten.

Wait, was that established onscreen? I thought TBTP just changed the character’s name and expected us not to notice.
