Gray Bunny

I just can't believe those numbers either. She can't be getting that much, and Phaedra can't be in her 4th season with that puny 1st season kinda salary.

Ah, thanks! I always wondered, and figured she had to have had something done during her time away :-)

Right. Melrose was slated for a 7th season but the 6th season was sinking in ratings so they held off on airing the last two months and did an early spring finale in March, keeping the last 6 or 7 to air in the summer, hoping to recapture the magic it and 90210 had in the early 90's. They group these season 6 episodes in with the season 7 DVD's and reruns, but there's a 3 month time gap and huge cast overhaul about the 7th episode in (when the actual 7th season would've began). That's when Matt is about to visit the gang but dies on the way to the restaurant, where their nonchalant reaction to the news of his death always made me laugh and roll my eyes. I remember reading in SOD around this time that the new head honcho at FOX wasn't a fan of soap-like shows. There was a Party of Five spinoff called Time Of Your Life on around this time which was also quickly yanked. One thing that was nice about FOX back in their early years was that they gave their shows time to grow, work out their kinks, and find an audience, since they were the new kid on the block with nothing to lose. I would've loved to have seen MODELS INC go a couple more years. It ended after one season in '95, but even by '97, FOX was still trying to launch more Aaron Spelling soapiness (i.e. Pacific Palisades).

The way this show goes, the professor would take a looooooooong time to cum, much to Amanda's chagrin. The rape aftermath was indeed icky. Didn't he say he has a pal that he swaps partners with? Or his pal has just one woman that he lets him occasionally do? Ick. Pilar Lopez-Fitzgerald is a nutbag! She makes all these vague accusations against Hannah, but then doesn't follow through. Honestly, after Pilar (sorry, I'm sticking with her Passions name) finally accused her of wanting Jim, I would've smacked the crap outta her.

Jacqueline has finally lost it and I love that the Bravo producers are showing it. She even looks bonkers and off kilter in her talking head comments. And the true Melissa edit is divine! Loved those side eye looks her friends were giving each other as Melissa yammered on about her book plans. Can u imagine if Jennifer and Rosie had been added as official housewives? I'll let you conjure up an image of Beast doing the proverbial turn-around and pose. What would her tagline be? Rosie and Jennifer would be the first pre-op and post-op housewives. Season 6 storyline could be Jennifer donating her old dick to Rosie. I'm mean

Chris looked embarrassed for her. Jacq is a mess. I finally liked Kathy last night because she called wacko Jacko out on her insane, childish antics.

Sounds great, can't wait! I think it would be interesting to see the Ramona & Sonja friendship sour, because I think Sonja is the delusional one. I think it'll be fun to see the 'new' girls turn on each other (though I love that Heather & Carole are bff's) cuz an unhinged Aviva is an entertaining Aviva. Oh LuAnn... Still in her own world. It's funny how both LuAnn and Sonja think they're the s.hit. There's a reason why Ramona thinks she's the Joan Collins of NYC and that's because she is. Bethenny is long gone, Jill is a thing of the past, and Ramona consistently brings the drama. She IS queen bee of this franchise. Take a sip o' Pinot and celebrate! I think this write-up of the upcoming drama sounds juicy good. I hope they deliver this season :-)

Tracey Ross! That's her name. She is one step higher than the current Veronica, but that ain't saying much. Actually, their faces, voices, and overall sucky acting are very very similar. Jasmine Guy would be faaaaaaabulous especially if they wanted to make the character more of a viper than a kitty cat.

Bahahahah! Ok fine, let the lady return just so NeNe can go a few more rounds with her. Girlfriend won't hold back!

I agree about axing any solo scenes with Veronica and Bootleg Sally. ...we gotta come up with a clever nickname for V, I find her to be the most irritating, weak actress of the bunch. At least the daughter is funny to watch. V is just tragically stiff and unnatural.

Oh this show... LOL It got annoying when both Candace and later Benny took FOREVER to break the good news to Benny and Hannah, respectively. If I had a 50K surprise, I would've busted into the room and said, "I got the money! You're not gonna be out on the street!" Instead, Candace probed Benny to see if he still believed in her, and Benny waited for his mom to moan on about nonsense before finally telling her she needn't worry anymore. It's like, I get that they're trying to establish some relationship dynamics but get to the point! Haha Question: I must admit I don't know all the specifics of breast cancer. Where is bootleg Sally Spectra bleeding from? I say vagina, hubby says breasts but that can NOT be correct.

Thanks for the heads up. Should either be a fun train wreck or a frustrating clusterfuk. Ill be watching My TiVo says its Mark Paul Gosselaar and Brecken Meyer. Did they cancel last minute and so they decided to throw on the horse faced post-op shemale instead?

A few weeks back when Danielle's handful of supporters were bombarding Andy Cohen on twitter, he said they tried to get her back but Danielle said no. Hmm...

For real. The press sure loves to kick a horse when they're down. Didn't they explain that way back in season 2 of RHOA that they filmed the ladies leaving a table from a restaurant twice? All the empty restaurants should be an indication that all these meetings are prepped and pre-planned, even for the most naive believers who think reality TV is 100% real. But then you have people who believe Teresa and Caroline's friendship ended over an Olive Garden comment in a cookbook and you realize how gullible people are (not here of course, Facebook land) :-)

3 episodes and shown less than 10 minutes... All the more reason why they should've dumped her behind and spent that time building up a newbie. She doesn't add anything dynamic that would get people to watch. She drags out her gorilla sister at every chance because that's the only thing interesting or humorous about Kathy. I'm glad NJ's number are slipping. A 3rd season of the same crap should not be rewarded.

I really don't get the infatuation for Jacqueline's hubby. He's a nice, protective & patient husband, but he's always had that bloated, tired drinker look to him. To each his own

Heather Locklear was pregnant during season 6 so there isn't much to her story. When she comes back, they wrote her in a very out-of-character way. That whole ordeal with marrying that Roy guy (I think that's his name; the actor playing him just played Stefano's henchman that Sami shot on DAYS) was a big 'Huh?' like Amanda gave up on life or something. Have fun watching that first segment of season 7 when they learn that Matt died in a car accident. All their reactions are so nonchalant, it's hilarious! Amanda: "Matt's dead." (Actual dialogue) Jane: "Oh. Can I have his salad then?" (What I expected her to say, based on their non-reactions)

Yup... I agree... Good... Then you agree with me?.... Yes...

Buwahahah! Never heard someone go in on Sonja like that! She's very take-her-or-leave-her, along with LuAnn. The only correction I'd make is that Sonja came in mid-way thru season 3, the gay marriage equality event was beginning of season 4, and the butt boinking was season 5. They're filming 6 currently. Sigh. I hope they bring it this season. I'd totally welcome a last minute shocker with Jill or Alex; anything to create some buzz for my NYC ladies.

I think Hannah has some bills she's worrying about paying. :-) I think Hannah has some bills she's worrying about paying. :-)

Veronica and her acting reminds me of the woman from Passions who played Eve. Both are bad. Caught up on this thread... This show is definitely a So Bad You Have to Watch kinda show. I guess that's how Passions was to a lot of people early on. I liked the initial episode. So soapy and cliche. I'll try not to repeat what people have already said... Even though repeating things is the name of the game of this show! They need to get the rights to play Destiny's Child's "Bills, Bills, Bills" and play it whenever Hannah and Benny are onscreen. WE GET IT! You've got bills to pay!!! And the house is in Benny's name, thank God! You can rest easy knowing the house is paid off! We. Get. It. The constant recaps and the EXPOSITION!!! Holy moly, you'd think this was a 5-day-a-week daytime soap. I almost OD'ed on expository dialogue in the pilot. Amanda, you are the weakest link, goodbye! The way the role is played, you'd think Amanda was 10 years old, desperate for daddy's love. But don't upset her, because you know what happens when she gets upset (is Lou Ferrigno going to guest star as The Incredible Hulk when she finally blows her top?) I knew Gavin Houston's character was gay from the moment he sashayed on set. I just knew it. In fact, at first I thought the hunky rich son was boinking him. On last night's episode in that bedroom scene, I swear I thought Wyatt was going to kiss him. Can't deny the eye candy and love that they have light and dark to select from. Wyatt, Benny, and Gavin Houston (can't remember the character name) He needs to be next in a shamelessly shirtless scene. Sally Spectra! That's it! She's a combo of Sally Spectra and a poor man's Kathy Bates. I don't know why, but I kinda like her. I certainly think she's stronger than daughter Amanda or best friend Veronica (see that? Expository!) Veronica is weak. She hates to see other black women succeed. She knows her son is gay. That 'kiss your mother' line was weeeeird. And. The. Pauses. Between. Characters. When. They. Speak. WTF? The first scene that bugged me was in the 2nd episode when Jim and Peter Parros (p.s. ill need to see a shirtless scene for him too, just to see how he's holding up) were in the office and it progressed so slowly with so many pauses. I thought to myself, geez at least add some background music or SOMETHING to get this scene movin'! It's cute how in yesterday's episode there was a scene or two where someone was at the door and they used a green screen for the outside. I hope there's some on-location scenes coming up. They definitely resemble AMC 2.0 or current DAYS indeed, with all the claustrophobic sets. They don't even use backdrops outside any windows. Instead it's all sheer curtains with light blaring in. Ok that's all for now. I'm watching :-)

I agree those ladies have run their course. All 4 mentioned are unlikable. I used to like Gretchen, but now that I've been watching more consistently, I see how whiny and petty she is alongside the other blondies. And what the eff did she do to her face??? How old is she, and she's getting all Joan Rivers on us already? Oy... Like seriously, when we saw that profile shot of her in the limo, it was like someone was behind her, holding strings to make her face look so pulled back. Her jaw makes a 45 degree angle north towards her ears. The thing is though, Heather and Bucky Beaver aren't all that dynamic (Bucky is brand new, so to wipe her out would be like ousting NYC's Cindy), so with 4 new ladies and these 2, it would basically be a brand new show with the same title.

Ha! Gorga's got the kind of body where you don't care if a certain part of his anatomy is merely average... The man is jacked! (though he'll never hold a candle to my all-time fave, ATL's Ed Hartwell... and you KNOW *that* guy ain't merely average! lol okay I'll stop)

I think they'd be smart to make it a one or two week special. Tamra (nor any of the OC ladies) does not have enough pull to bring in viewers by herself.

New Jersey was ho-hum tonight. When Teresa and Caroline were arguing, I thought there were hints of genuine smiles towards each other, like it was in between takes and this was all for show. Speaking of mixing & changing franchises, it'd be funny if they did some sort of short-run Real Housewives All-Stars where they got all the heavy hitters from each city together on a trip and see if it'd be a giant chit show of laughs or fur flying with all the big egos. Who would the Top 6 or 7 be? And on the other spectrum of the crazy train, it'd be hilarious to see all the nutjobs stuck together on a trip like NYC's Kelly, NJ's Danielle, and ATL's Kenya.
