Tyler Perry's 'Haves and Have Nots' on OWN
Yes, WHAT is that about? Has he reverted to a 10 year old as a result of his accident?

...and now, with brand new eyes! She's taken a page out of Miss Dubrow's book of beauty secrets by getting brand new eye sockets.

I am LOVING the idea of Lisa Rinna on RHOBH!!! LOVING IT!!!!! I cannot wait for her silly butt to do her thang! You are so right, it writes itself. I love it. It *is* strange, having 2 Lisas (just as NJ will have two Teresas), but what can ya do? "Lisa V" and "Lisa R" like the Kim's on Jersey?

The View
And on a separate note, it's being reported that Rosie O'Donnell is in negotiations to return to The View. I'm mixed on this. I have always loved Rosie, even when public opinion was (and is) mostly negative of her. But I'm not sure how this will work. On one hand, I think she works best alone. When she was back last month for Barbara's farewell, you could always tell that Rosie was just waiting for her chance to talk. She's not even listening to anyone else, because she's already thought in her head what she's going to say next. I like her opinions, but I don't know if there's a large audience out there for her anymore. If it were still 2002 and she was still playing up the "Queen of Nice" thing she had going on during her 1996-2002 talk show run, then I'd say, YES! But after everything that happened in the past 12 years, I don't think people care about her opinions. Sadly, it's the same thing that happened with Roseanne Barr. She is smart and has intelligent ideas, but her delivery and her interaction with other people have soured people's opinion of her. Perhaps she would do well with Whoopie and a couple other women who are intelligent (i.e. not Sherri) and not a nails-on-a-chalkboard harpie (i.e. Elizabitch). It's crazy how The Talk is actually a better show now. I always felt like they threw together a bunch of random misfits, but oddly enough, it works!

Sheree is always a hater. Still, it was nice to see that she cleaned herself up and got out of whatever car she's living in to attend the wedding. Overall, I thought the 90 minute finale was enjoyable, with nary a dull moment. I feel like we saw this venue set-up before, with the decorations and design of the room the same as NeNe's, but I could be remembering wrong. Is that a Bravo thing, where the person getting married is in the center of the room with everyone all around them? And there's long white sheets draped everywhere? I wonder what Bethenny's looked like.

Tyler Perry's 'Haves and Have Nots' on OWN
Yes that was a GREAT ending. The kind of camp that makes this dreck worth watching. I thought Gavin Houston did well throughout the episode. He doesn't get enough credit (they never gave him anything to do on GL, probably because his eyes only twinkled when Marty West's Shayne was around).

If they can bring back Adrienne, surely they can bring back Jill....

It was weird how there was actual movement in the final 10 minutes of story. I liked how they cut to the chase with Amanda and Jim barging in and telling her to move home. That thug dude. I have no words. First, with Amanda, then with Veronica. I mean...

I don't think NYC's Heather has has work done. For starters, I would think the first thing she would attack is the nose. She just doesn't have a glamorous look to her. She's like Ellen in that she looks better in pants than a dress (not implying she's gay, just sportier/butch). Note, I had to specify NYC's Heather because OC's Heather clearly has. It's like she has new eye sockets.

Ratings from the 70's
It's interesting how the numbers could fluctuate up through the late 70's, not just as No. 1, but all throughout the rankings. Thanks for posting

No surprise they're keeping Ramona. If this is true. I could see LuAnn popping in because she's a familiar face. Is it wrong that one reason why I think viewers haven't connected with the new ladies (season 5) is that none of them are very pretty? They all have... unique looks, but overall it's like we're looking at the misfits wedding reception table in the back corner. Kristen is an okay Housewife, but she doesn't fit in with this current NYC crowd. Dare I say she's too young for them? It just seems too forced that she's hanging out with them. I'm telling ya, this season has no overall arc to tie it all together, nor do most cliffhangers offer a real good reason to tune in next week. I'm guessing 1) they'll do a last-ditch effort to recapture the magic and bring back Bethenny, Jill and maybe Alex, all in some capacity. Or 2) basically a brand new show, but with Ramona and some familiar friends. They could almost promote it as a new series. Or 3) they'll end up discontinuing it. These shows can't last forever. While some like OC and Atlanta continue to evolve and thrive, others are losing their luster like BH and NJ. In a couple months we'll see which side Jersey falls into in the success/failing chart.

Melrose Place
It boggles my mind that the writers of 2.0 admit they never saw the original. I mean, how do they get that kind of writing job without ANY type of research?

Ratings from the 80's
Ah, the most watched month ever Not surprising that Ryan's Hope and Edge of Night would crack the top ten, being ABC soaps. Thanks for these.

And she threw Heather RIGHT BACK under the bus while apologizing. Oh, her comeuppance will be delicious Agreed, this is a great season!

Danielle comes across as very basic and bland. I'm not surprised she didn't get an orange. Lizzie may not be heavily involved in the drama, but she's got wise things to say. Brains, beauty, and a beautiful family. Definitely the quiet voice of reason whom I hope gets louder... Shannon is messy and I like it. Soaplovers, you're so right about not hawking a product or trying to start a music/acting career. Very refreshing. I think she'll be back for another season. It seems there's a genuine friendship that can develop amongst some of the ladies, and not just a fellow castmember. That's when I think there's a good fit, casting-wise. If they actually seem like friends instead of being paid to go on trips together and have lunch without food, it's a success. Heather definitely owned that confrontation, but she was wrong to go about talking about Shannon to a bunch of non-castmembers, although it was all too convenient that Shannon's husband happened to be at the same restaurant and overheard it (that's what happened, right? Did Heather not see him in the background?) Tamra's eyes look different in her talking heads. Whatever she had done in between filming and doing Talking Head remarks, she shouldn't have done.

NYC hasn't had a 3 part reunion since season 3. Although, wasn't season 4's two 90-minute episodes? Or was just one of them 90 minutes? Either way, I just don't think they had the story or the conflict this season to stretch out 3 hours worth of reunion.

Melrose Place
Yay for some Courtney love! I always enjoyed her. I had no problem with Melrose being the Alison Parker show in the first season. I wish they could've gotten her back for the series finale, even for a cameo. She, like Heather Locklear, Laura Leighton, Josie Bissett, Marcia Cross, etc. just seem to improve with age.

I like Lizzie, but you're right, she's not well-integrated with the rest of the cast. Shannon just fell right into the mix with Tamra, Vicki, and tension with Heather. She's a bit neurotic and overdramatic, but overall I like Shannon. I'm just not feeling her struggle. I *wish* I had millions of dollars and all the time in the world to make my mansion look like a Christmas snowglobe while my husband is out making $$$$$. Dry your tears with a few $100 dollar bills. I can't wait to see her and Tamra fall out. Tamra needs to be knocked down a few pegs by the other ladies. It's long past time for her turn. Yaaaaaaay!!!!! to Queen Lisa returning to Beverly Hills! It would not be worth watching without her. I still think ATL's Marlo is best served as a Friend. Just like NYC's LuAnn getting such rave reviews this season as a heavy Friend without the official apple, more emphasis on Marlo's personal life may not suit her well. I like her best as the shi.tstirrer who stirs the pot and exits left.

Melrose Place
That character on MP 2.0 being Jake's grown son would've made PERFECT sense, given the age and timing. Not that I care about the rewritten history of 2.0, but I still don't get who Michael's baby mama was supposed to be. Certainly not Taylor! Courtney Thorne-Smith ditching the show and popping up on Ally McBeal (a show that aired literally right after MP) the next year is symbolic of melodramatic serials becoming irrelevant in favor of cheeky, satirical comedy-dramas that eventually took over in the 2000's.

I actually forgot about the leg! I hope there's a buildup to it, with tension amongst Aviva vs. whomever, and not just a random leg pull at the finale.- Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
They aired it an hour later than usual. Their lead-in was that pointless The People's Couch show. Still, there's no real hook to get people to watch. This season of NYC is a bunch of mini-plots that resolve themselves and everyone's hunky-dorey with each other again. Ramona and Kristen were already joking about throwing stuff at each other's faces on the Montana trip. Meanwhile, Aviva's fight du jour is with Kristen. I think she's gone through all 6 ladies, so it'll be back to Sonja or Ramona next. I think the season started out strong, and I was disappointed that more people weren't catching on to it. But as the episodes have progressed, it's lost its momentum. Although I'll give them credit for trying. The gossipy massage therapist is still the topic of debate next week? "A" for effort Here's to hoping an original castmember or 3 return for a blockbuster Season 7. And put it back on Mondays.- Tyler Perry's 'Haves and Have Nots' on OWN
Wow, Benny's miraculous recovery! Praise the Lord! "That's MY God!" Just Hannah's. Good for her. She prayed to the right one. How's Amanda's rapist holding up? Is he still running around the park with a knife fully lodged into his back?- Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Pec bounces are my weakness- Melrose Place
