Um, what exactly is Gemini?

I'm probably showing my age, but is the Shade Room actually a thing?

Every day that goes on, I despise Ted even more. I mean, how much more of a dumbass can he possibly get? He really believes Leslie at face value that Vernon is cheating on Anita with someone else?

Yeah, Vanessa clearly has it bad for Joey. And if her recent comments were anything to go by, she never even loved the guy, and possibly hasn't been in love with him for a very long time, and that's assuming that she was ever in love with him to begin with.

Yeah now that I think about it, he wasn't such a bad headwriter. At least he made the show interesting. I really wish he hadn't left. It definitely feels like whatever made the show compelling pretty much left with him.

Yeah, me too. At this point, Ted is basically a trash character and maybe it's time for the show to get rid of him for good.

Well this is turning out to be quite the banner week. First the voice of Sheen from Jimmy Neutron dies along with the voice of Doug Dimmedome from "Fairly Oddparents" and now Rob Reiner and Anthony Geary. People cheering over Rob Reiner dying are so horribly disgusting it pisses me off. And I really hope that whoever killed Rob and his wife gets the maximum penalty possible.

Does anybody think that Eva is actually redeemable at this point? Because I have no idea where the writers are even going with Leslie & Eva at this point and I really didn't like how Eva acted with Laura the other day. Am I a moron for wanting to believe the best in Eva? I just don't know anymore.

If this show insists on keeping Tomas around, they really have to recast him at some point. He's just plain awful.

I think it's probably because she's afraid that her whole entire scheme is going to come undone and everyone's going to find out that she tried to kill Bill.

You mean to tell me that Bill finally collapses and it's not at Winterfest? Really?

I don't understand why Sharon and Tracy are acting so shocked about Leslie being Barbara's daughter. "Oh, we would've known..." Oh really? You people were the ones that basically threw her out and you never even kept in touch with her afterwards. Miss me with that crap. Don't you dare pretend you gave a crap about her now. Maybe Barbara didn't want them to know because as far as she was concerned, she might've viewed them as being responsible for her losing her career and dreams of becoming a famous singer? Have they ever thought of that? They never even bothered to stand up for her when Dante forced her out. It's just dumb.

Okay the only thing that bothers me about this character so far is his name. Why is it spelled KIAL if it's supposed to be pronounced KYLE? Why not just spell the &%^$ name properly? It just looks weird and off-putting; I'm sorry. And this is supposed to be a guy who's in Nicole and Dani's age group.

At this point I'd rather they bring on someone new for Michael if they intend for him to be the next gen Alan type, because if he's supposed to have the type of relationship that Alan and Monica had, I just don't really see it with Willow. Willow is just basically a crazy unhinged psychopath at this point and she only has a certain amount of shelf life. I wouldn't hate the idea of bringing Serena on except that pretty much all of Scotty's kids are dead and I don't want her to be next. Zoe could probably work too. They could also bring on Lisa Yamada to play Selina Wu's daughter or something.

How convenient that Carlton is suddenly unable to accompany Nicole to Winterfest. Kind of lame if you ask me. I was looking forward to seeing them together. Is this all because this Dr. Rollins character can suddenly swoop in in his place? I have a feeling that Carlton may not be long for this show. And wow, Chelsea. Way to be supportive of your girlfriend. Hopefully Madison's mom shows up at some point because I really want to get a better picture of her and Madison's dynamic.

That's hilarious! I actually remember featuring Margarita in my fanfics, (back when I had no idea that I was actually writing fanfics, and no, I never did post those online, and thank God too, because they were pretty bad lol), and just now I decided to create an OC loosely based on her named Juanita Ramos and I'm going to debut her in a Thanksgiving-themed Beyond The Gates-centric fanfic I'm going to write. I already wrote out a whole backstory for her and everything. I even did a character model on her in Sims 4. Also I did a deep dive into Daniela Romo and apparently she had been singing long before she became an actress. I actually listened to some of her songs and they are pretty good; she's actually a very good singer. I actually have some favorites I've been obsessively listening to nonstop. I also do a video series on YouTube and I'm actually thinking of doing an episode on her soon, but not right now because this week is Thanksgiving and also this Sunday is my birthday.

So my mom used to watch this Spanish telenovela called "El Manantial" when I was a kid and I would watch some episodes with her and the other day I started watching it on YouTube out of curiosity and holy crap, is it insane! Like the mother of the female protagonist was having an affair with the father of the male protagonist and it was so messy and crazy and she ended up getting pregnant with his child, (but of course the child ended up being stillborn). And the male protagonist's mom grew very bitter and angry because of her husband cheating on her and screwing around on her and she opposes her son's relationship with the female protagonist, (and can you really blame her? I mean, her husband is a total scumbag!). By the way, the one character that I remember from that show all these years later is the male protagonist's mother Margarita, who's played by Daniela Romo. And she's an excellent villain, very layered and complex. She has these moments where she's vulnerable and then she also has these moments where she's angry and raging at everybody. I wish we had a villain like that on American soaps. I'm not sure about the state of Spanish soaps these days, but the telenovelas, (at least the ones back in the late 90's/early 2000's), were very interesting and compelling. I guess now I'm beginning to understand where my journey to soapland truly began.

It's still possible that Owen could be in cahoots with Jeremy and Jeremy might've hired him to kidnap Stephanie and hold her hostage as a desperate attempt to win her back.

Basically Ron Carlivanti and Jamey Giddens are terrible writers and they really suck. The last couple of years of Ron's tenure on Days was especially bad. I also think the whole Renee/Sarah debacle was Jamey's idea too, so I'm always giving him a massive side-eye for that. Honestly, I'm starting to understand why Ambitions only lasted one season.

Oh, wow... where can I find this interview?

I'm really liking Izaiah and Eva so far. And why can't I help but feel that something might happen to make Jessica stay in Fairmont Crest permanently?

I really hope this means that Tomas is slowly being phased out of the show and eventually by the end of the next season he gets written out altogether. I just don't think he's really needed at this point. But as much as I like Eva and Izaiah so far, I think it's way too early to call them endgame at this point. And I also hope that something interesting happens at Winterfest because if this show is devoting so much time to it, there better be some good payoff. And I hope that includes Leslie and Eva being exposed for their misdeeds and crimes.

Then what should we have then if not marriage?

I'm fine with Leslie being exposed at Winterfest at this point. A lot of people are getting really tired of Leslie constantly winning over the Duprees and them just standing there and doing absolutely nothing. Plus Leslie (and Eva to a lesser degree), are long overdue for a comeuppance. The fact that these two are practically eating screentime for days on end is really hurting the show in the long run. At least if Leslie gets exposed for what she did to Laura and receives an acceptable type of punishment, we can finally move on to other stories.

And now millions of people are able to be kicked off their health insurance because the ACA subsidies are about to expire next month. How long before the ACA completely dies off and insurance companies end up kicking off millions more people all because they have pre-existing conditions? Hell, I might end up losing my health insurance at this rate because I have numerous pre-existing conditions and so do my parents. Not to mention that now the Republicans want to push a national abortion ban in their next upcoming bill as well as a ban on hemp THC products. So yeah, screw the Republicans and Democrats.
