@Taoboi @Chris B @Antoyne @Cheap21 @NothinButAttitude @DaytimeFan @Faulkner am I missing anyone??
M2M trailer!
I'm here for Married to Medicine now!
Count me in! Can't wait!
Side note: I swear, Bravo be doing some AI sh¡t with their new cast still shots. First with Beverly Hills, now you have the M2M women looking like other people.

We all know DAYS is notorious for reusing old actors in new roles. But the frequency of the turnover has gotten ridiculous. When you're talking Renee Jones, Judi Evans, and even the mumbling owl known as Josh Taylor, you had a good ten years in between roles. Now you can't even get ten days.
I don't watch GH, but haven't they gotten ridiculous too? With the former OLTL'ers? I haven't kept up.

Sad but Potomac is in the doldrums. Very few franchises have gone this long without major changes, and it’s due for a rethink, especially if Gizelle is simply gonna fake her way through the series. Mia is still a flop. I don’t care how much contrived drama she brings. I wouldn’t mind if Candiace moves to ATL and anchors a reboot there.
I definitely agree about Mia. In this current era of Housewives, most new castmembers don't really pop anymore. So even if they're mediocre, they get to stick around for multiple seasons (see: Potomac's Mia, and even Wendy, BH's Crystal, ATL's Sanya, etc.)
Yes, I see y'all's point about Potomac being a tired rehash versus the other returning shows. They are familiar faces but they're starting to hit their expiration dates. However, Potomac's enduring strength is that most of the core women really have known each other for years, even before the show (and I'll include Charriisse's tired ass with them), so while some rotation is needed to keep the show fresh, then we get into the alternate option of having fake friends forced to hang out for a TV series. Catch 22.
Also, much like Salt Lake City, new castmembers for Potomac have been lukewarm or duds, save for Candiace. I actually think SLC is in one of the worst shapes of all the Housewives shows because their cast is full of Basic Bettys.

DAYS at a solid #3 but more so because all the others around them have dropped so drastically. This year really saw a steady decline for the top half. Another World has managed to buck the trend so far.

Around 11/10/86... on GL, I believe this was when Reva/Kyle's wedding got interrupted by Maeve, and later Josh returned and appeared to Reva after she got hit by a truck while wandering outside (on location).

According to Lilley, O'Brien is only stepping in for those final weeks of scripts she was initially meant to film, and that the fired EP made the decision to recast three-weeks prior to Lilley's return. So, it was an ultimate set up.
That is the absolute dumbest thing they could've done.
Jeezus, where's Charity Rahmer when you need a quick pinch hitter?

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: Brought to you by Ozempic.
I'm here for The Fall of the House of Umansky. Yes, we'll get the usual "oh woe is me / pity me and my innocence" theatrics from Splits Richards, but it will still be delicious to watch unfold. Rinna who? Dang, Lips was hoping RHOBH would be a snoozefest without her. Considering it was rumored to be a ho-hum season until the Kyle/Mauricio news broke, I wonder if anything worthwhile will end up getting scrapped altogether.
Dorit's "story" is the post traumatic stress of last year's robbery. Hey kitty gurl, you may be on your 9th life with this series. [My prediction for 2024: Dorit and PK will "break up" or there will be "an affair" or something of that nature to keep her on the show]
Crystal is still there. Okay.
Sutton, who also looks thinner this year, showed up to work and continues to stir the pot and call a bitch out. Me likey. And there's always Garcelle to co-sign.
Erika mentioning Denise Richards' $7 Onlyfans bundle, yet her Las Vegas show tickets can currently be purchased for as little at $7.00. Irony! Her only redemption is her weight loss; not exactly personal character growth.
That said... I'll be watching! LOL
RHOBH's real-life dramas is what prevents this show from becoming too stale or long in the tooth. I don't think any whisperings of rebooting this franchise will pop up anytime soon.

Whoever cast Angie K. needs to be stoned. She is painful to watch. Never have I seen someone so eager to assimilate into the show by fighting in my life. Dare I say it but had Meredith bussed her in the mouth, she would've been right. If someone keeps telling you to get out of their space and stop talking to them, you should do so. She and Whitney totally disrespected Meredith last night. Meredith handled it better than most.
Agreed; she is awful, obnoxious, thirsty, worst of all, she really thinks she's "someone." I'll gladly take newbie Monica over plastic microwaved Sarah Paulson.
And yes, Little Girl is just as bad. The desperation at stirring up conflict and trying to call out hypocrisy is so obvious it's cringeworthy.
Now that we know a little more about what Meredith is referring to, I can understand her going from zero to 180 in a split second. Because last week, when she randomly burst out about how there are children who will be disabled forever because of an argument with Angie, I was laughing hysterically. Her rant was so out of left field.
Lisa and the glam... Lawd... Monica is correct about her being tone deaf, but it's still funny how Lisa's in her own bubbly world of fabulosity.
Miserable Mary refusing to go to any event is hilarious. Hey, she's not a castmember; she's obliged to do NADA. Go on and get your Mickey D's. We'll sit back and enjoy listening to you talk to yourself.
I still like Heather. Sue me
Side note: Trixie Mattel wouldn't be my first choice drag star to judge a make-up competition, I'm just sayin'...

Just outta curiosity, when did the infamous Henderson flood of Search for Tomorrow air? Around February/March? If so, it didn't do much for them.

"Dubai, BH, Potomac, NJ, and Miami are all going to pop up November/December"
---- Wait, what? All 5 shows screening at the same time?? That's too much! My sweet spot is 3 at a time, in case one of the shows is a dud.
How can I choose between BH, Potomac, Miami?? I'm intrigued by Dubai's sophomore season for sure. (NJ if it weren't for the fact that I am now completely exhausted by the Gorga family dynamics).
It would be nice if Potomac were starting about now, leading into a December start for BH and Miami. I feel like Potomac and BH wrapped up filming some time ago. Dubai too.
Agreed; it's too bad Potomac wasn't ready to fire off right after Atlanta ended.
@NothinButAttitude Besides NuNYC and SLC, we also still have OC! It's currently just SLC & OC in my house. I actually just happened to watch the most recent NuNYC and I still can't warm to this group. The flirty drunk reminds me of Molly Burnett from her DAYS days.

Way overdue or way too late? The Killing Pool was the last classic story of the 90’s and I loved Edmund and Susan at the time, but their story ended with ED leaving of course. I didn’t think we’d ever seen Edmund again.
Yeah, I would've thought he'd pop up around 2014... I think that's when ED's Susan first returned after a 15+ year absence.

Nice healthy numbers sustained through February.
It seems there would be many times at least through the end of the 90's that we'd see higher numbers for most of the soaps in January and February, due to massive snow storms, particularly on the east coast that meant lots of people staying home from work and school.

SLC
A whole A$$ mess. BUT...a FUN mess.
Lord, I can't believe that the SLC ladies are going three-for-three on good episodes. The animosity toward Angie K is really fueling this first set of episodes and Production has been on point with the funny.
And speaking of funny...MARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I've hollered so many times during this episode. And most of it was because of her. Her comments. Her facial reactions (like when Monica interrupted the 'boring' game to spill her affair tea). And she was keeping everyone straight...INCLUDING her friend Meredith. And we all know good and well I LIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE for ANY moment that Mary drags Little Girl. And I fell out when Heather gave the sh*t-faced drunk assist a la 'Is Jamal coming' style. Thank God, she's back. Honorable mention: 'I'm not talking to you.' and Mary/Monica shopping...more of that dynamic please.
As for the rest...
MEREDITH. Wooooow. Well, I keep saying that an engaged Meredith is a DANGEROUS Meredith. And she continues to prove me right!!! Even Fabulous Ice looked scared when Meredith started dropping tea on Angie K's husband. Uh oh now. But see? The rivalry between Meredith and Angie K continues to give more and more. Moreso than a rivalry between Meredith and Fabulous Ice actually. I want to see where it will go.
LISA. Speaking of seeing where a rivalry goes, YES to Fabulous Ice vs Monica. Just the brief moment of it at the dinner...THAT'S how it's done. Monica was coming from a good place, but it was clear that Lisa was getting offended and defensive about it. And you just know that it might continue to stay left because as Monica said in the first episode...Fabulous Ice is all about Fabulous Ice. That said...thank you, Production, for the rollback on the multiple times Fabulous Ice mentioned that ring.
HEATHER. I had mixed feelings on her this week. She is just soooo jealous over clear high school/college kid trauma. First with Fabulous Ice. Even with Little Girl at times. And now with Angie K. I was just rme at her for her clear jealousy. On the other hand, Heather was actual a fun hot mess this week and I was loving it. Her giggle during Meredith vs Angie K....GUUURL ME!!! Her commentary was just as funny as Mary (her 'oh, s^it' at the beginning of the episode was ALSO ME). And her assist in Mary's dragging of Little Girl was Chef's kiss. God, she was fun. Except for the vomit, of course.
ANGIE K. Over her being victim this week. You can't sit there and throw out quips over the host ignoring you when you WERE NOT INVITED IN THE FIRST PLACE, TRICK!!!! And then she KEPT throwing potshots. And THEN she started mess with Meredith at dinner and wondered why Meredith got into it with her after spending the day paying her dust for the most part. Whatever, girl. At least she gave good Confessional looks, I guess.
MONICA. Looooooooooove her. She continues to be a fun addition. From her commentary to her standing up for herself with Angie K (who WAS talking behind her back...some friend) to her dynamic with Mary (more please!!!) to her vs Fabulous Ice. Monica just keeps giving. And her totally derailing the 'boring' game with her affair tea was great.
LITTLE GIRL.
DRAG HER AGAIN, MARY!!! DRAG HER FOR ME!!! AH!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
Little Girl has gotten away for too long without anyone holding her accountable. And you know who used to do that...MARY. So to see Mary drag her transparent a$$ again was a thing of beauty. And still hollering over S&it Faced Heather with the assist. It is so clear what
WHitLittle Girl is doing that it's shocking no one sees it. But I guess I can give her soooome credit...she's slowly turning into the Ashley Darby of this branch of Housewives. But how much is she an Ashley? I guess we will find out next week when she does the unthinkable...comes for MARY.Overall...that was a great episode and I cannot believe how good this show has been after that lackluster last season. See what happens when Production doesn't play favorites?
Not at all. They need to do something different.
Little Girl does not have the wit nor charm of my darling Ashley Darby. Nuh-uh, no way.
Whitney's hand at getting this all started up (Angie going for Meredith) was so obvious, as was her smirk at the table. She's sloppy at throwing the brick and hiding the hand, though. I'd sooner compare her to Gizelle.
I cannot stand this Angie girl. First of all, I think they can drop the "K". The other shaky voiced Angie H(arrington) isn't coming back. Secondly, talk about a thirsty performance to cause trouble, become relevant, and secure a snowflake. The confessional look is a low budget Britney Spears ripoff that even Ramona Singer could pull off better. And the botched up face? Gurl, get a refund.
Meanwhile, Mary continues to be the kooky unfiltered Greek chorus, calling out mess left and right. Get 'er Mare! (Her being Little Girl).
I'm liking Monica a lot and I like that she instantly called out Angie's B.S. with being a lousy friend and doing too much. She's a keeper, I think. To be continued...

As for Guiding Light, Pamela Long departs as HW and there's numerous changes to the writing team, thus the drop. I don't believe GL was in cancel territory in 1986 though.
Me either. Capitol was still CBS's lowest rated show and B&B hadn't premiered yet, nor taken off, so the idea of having 3 Bell soaps wasn't an idea... yet.

(I think RC's one and only true all-cast event was Chad & Abby and Sonny & Paul's double wedding, and I have no idea how that got green-lit as recent as 2017).
The Rex & Chloe scenes (which really worked) I guess were also meant to mirror Alex & Ciara's with the actor swaps I'm assuming.
I think the last big event, which involved St. Luke's as we knew it coming to an end, was the explosion in summer 2020 which was supposed to be the cliffhanger before the 2 week break for the Olympics that didn't happen.
I'd still take Kyle Lowder back as Brady any day. There, I said it. I don't care how unpopular or popular he is.

Absolutely. I really found Courtney hard to stomach.
The BravBros podcast has a theory about Courtney and Ralph: they hooked up. I can see it.
Also, Drew's dress had to be the least flattering thing I've seen a housewife wear in a long time. Her singing *at* him was cringe and hilarious and tough to watch and just...all of it. They should absolutely divorce because it's an unhealthy marriage that will never, ever, recover.
The cringe factor was of epic proportions, sure to go down in Housewives history. It was hilariously weird.
I feel like we could learn a lot more about the whole situation if Drew's

I remember Eileen Davidson explaining once that she got her base pay as Kristen, but then received additional pay (not necessarily double, but an additional amount) per extra character (Susan, then Mary Moira, then Thomas, then Penelope)
