Well, he has been spotted and most are saying he looks fat...that he put on weight.....

I forgot it was back on. I missed it. Oh well hopefully they will rerun the episode on Saturday.

Stan Wawrinka: the 2014 Open champion also hasn’t been sighted in six months as he battles a knee injury that will restrict his build-up to next week’s one- night Tie Break Tens. I had to laugh at this one. It's like Unsolved Mysteries...where is he? He is still probably pouting about Magnus Norman leaving him as his coach. I am still looking forward to it. I am sure the courts will be fast again to favor Federer but I am hoping he doesn't win either. I am sick of him and wish he'd retire.

Not a surprise about Andy and I have a feeling Novak will be next to pull out. Loving the warm up tournaments and the new Greek player who played Thiem today.

It was so nice to see Coric's match today. You can always count on moaning during his matches. I am so glad he won.

Well at least has some humor. Never cared for his game but yeah to watch him lose....LOL. I don't miss him in the tour. All that said....I think he is finished playing tennis. A hip injury was what got Gustavo and Norman off the tour. His withdrawal puts him at #18 in the world now but that won't matter considering how far it seems he is from returning to the tour.

The men went 2-2 last night/early morning. I am loving Sasha's new haircut.

What a great way to start the new year! Watching my favorite Dominic Thiem play the first day of the year and winning and wishing everyone a Happy New Year after his win. Noticed his dad and brother were in the stands watching his match. Great to have tennis once again! The American men went 1-2 last night with Ryan Harrison the only winner in 3 sets. I had to LOL at Justin Gimelstob pimping Harrison once again. And I had to LOL when he was asked if Jack Sock would remain in the top 10 this year and he didn't answer....LOL

Lawd look at this outstanding line-up. I watched it all. How I miss Sundays on CBS.

The theme song is superb! So Phillips did make it to season 9 but I think she was only on one or two episodes and then written out.

I was like WTF she already is head buyer of the boutique. The writers should've made her manager of the boutique instead for the ending. Also, both moving into the same complex for me made it seemed like they were just moving to a better ghetto. That's why I would have preferred Keith sign with an LA team and they move to the west coast while Willona was transferred as manger to a boutique in NY city. The Carl stuff was just weird. YESSSSSSSSS Mom is coming to the wedding and no mention of Carl and poof she stays after the wedding with no mention of Carl....LMAO. That sure was a fill in the blank moment.

All we saw was Florida and Willona jumping up and down and hugging when they found out they'd be neighbors again. As much as I would miss seeing them as neighbors they should have gone their separate ways. And Willona saying she had become head buyer at her boutique was ridiculous since seasons earlier she had already become head buyer at the boutique...LOL. Obviously, the writers forgot what they had written before. As for ODAAT.....did Phillips not get along with the actor who played Chuck?? Max was the male version of Ann and Barbara married herself(Mark)....LOL I thought Max was another babysitter/mother paired with Julie.

@Khan And if you look carefully in season 1....you can see the microphone hanging down next to the actors head...LOL. i thought Chuck was hot and I can see how Julie was so enthralled with him.

Did he have surgery? Some are saying he did. I thought he hadn't since Novak was afraid of surgery. It doesn't look good for him to play the Australian Open in January. I wonder about Nadal too. Will he be able to play? He's pulled out of a tournament too.

Lembeck was hot back in the day. The episode you mentioned about Max and Barbara recently aired on Logo. I thought they had a lot of chemistry. The show would've never gone there though. It would've been nice to see the fallout if something had happen. I could see why Max was attracted to Barbara. I couldn't stand Shelley Fabares character. She was such a snob. @KMan101 Several episodes of I Love Lucy in color have been released on DVD. Dick Van Dyke show has one out in color on Blu Ray and Andy Griffith Show has one in color on DVD. I was lucky enough to pick them all up. I hope more of I Love Lucy in color on DVD and Dick Van Dyke in color on blu-ray get release soon.

I bought season 1 of I Love Lucy on blu-ray to upgrade on the picture quality. To my surprise the picture quality was awful and no better than the DVDs. The price for the blu ray was so high too that it wasn't worth upgrading. Season 2 was released on Blu Ray too but I didn't bother buying it. The reviews for the Season 2 Blu Ray release were awful. Same complaints about awful picture quality. Dick Van Dyke is on blu-ray and I bought it. The picture quality for this release is outstanding. The picture is crisp, clean and clear. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. It is much better than the DVD release of the show. I would highly recommend anyone to purchase the blu-ray release of the complete series of Dick Van Dyke. I also purchased the Dick Van Dyke 2 episode in color blu-ray that came out a while back. It was a release from a special that appeared on CBS. The picture quality is outstanding and love the show in color! And I also have the entire collection of Mama's Family on DVD. I love that show and Bubba…..LOL

Thanks to Logo I was able to watch this show once again since the last time when it ran in syndication in the late 80's after Guiding Light. There were some episodes that weren't shown on Logo that I have barely seen again on the DVD release. I have Roseanne, I Love Lucy in both DVD and Blu Ray(was so disappointed in it) and MWC too and many more…LOL And yes the DVD's have lowered in price and you can get them cheaper during the holidays. As for the spin-off….Bonnie and Valerie were ready to call it quits after Season 8. Both were tired and thought it had run its course. But the spin-off idea kept Valerie and Bonnie for another year. The spin-off intrigued Valerie and Bonnie knew the end was near. I am sure Bonnie would have showed up on occasion on the spin-off too after some rest from the show.

What three days are you going? First week or second week?

There was suppose to be a spinoff after Season 9 but it didn't happen. It was suppose to be the girls and their husbands with no Ann. I think MP addiction to drugs once again during Season 8 or 9...don't recall which year squashed that idea. They couldn't count on her. I think that's why Season 8 feels so different to you @KMan101. As for Logo...yeah they took it and Alice off their schedule that's why I picked up the entire show on dvd when it was released this month and also picked up Season 6 of Alice. And I know it will surprise you but I haven't seen Season 6 of One Day AT A Time.

Alex was not cute. He was the total opposite. But every show does it. Adds a new cute one to rejuvenate the show and it never works. I also didn't care for Ron Rifkin's character. I thought the first 5 seasons of the show were great. Season 6 sucked and Season 7 improved a bit. I thought Season 8 was much better. I did love the addition of Max and Mark. I especially loved the way Julie and Max met and later got married.

I hated him on the show and found him rather fugly...LOL. I can't believe he lasted 3 seasons on the show. And even back then he was as gay as a picnic basket!

I was about to ask if you were going this year. I can't wait for the new year and the Aussie Open. @Toups would know about posting a live video from FB. I actually think you can just post a link to your video on here and posters can just click on that link.

Serena makes her grand return tomorrow morning on Tennis Channel. And more news on Joker. He might miss the Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic has pulled out of Abu Dhabi tune up! He sights continued pain in elbow. The same one he didn't get surgery on. This isn't looking good for him returning to the Australian Open. All the ones that pulled out early this year have withdrawn from upcoming tournaments including Rafa.
