Well, I look forward to Leah's second season curse because I'm already annoyed by her just by the promos. Agreed. I felt bad for her. That was too much and lil Joey needed to shut his trap. 100% And if there's physical assault involved, it's no wonder Leah is trying to cover her ass before it hits the airwaves.

UPDATE: "Diana" and "Carlo" are no longer together and after spending months on the road, Diana is coming home this weekend. She reached out to my hubby and they had a talk, and we're going to have dinner with her this weekend. Hubby flat out told her we thought she was in a cult, and she agreed it was a cult-like atmosphere. Sounds like she's going to make the rounds and reach out to people she's fallen out of touch with, and is apologetic and embarrassed over the whole ordeal. Of course, I'll have questions, but at the same time, I'm not going to bombard her with too much. I'm happy to give her a safe space to come to us and vent and reconnect. But yeah, lots of info to unpack from the last couple days and more to come this weekend...

With the inevitable cast purging that happens annually after a DAYS renewal (IF it gets renewed), I hope they don't turn to the usual suspects this time around (Belle, Shawn, Philip, Chloe, Lucas). I'm perplexed why they brought back Rafe in the first place. Ditto Ava. And hell, Nicole can be rested. That whole trio can go. Meanwhile, I do NOT get the appeal of Jake and his only redeeming quality in my eyes is giving Kate a storyline. And if you're insistent on saddling Brady with Kristen, then rest both characters for at least a year, and then bring Brady back without his crazy babymama.

Wow, that is ridiculous if they are bending over backwards to protect Drew and create this positive narrative to the audience. Who do they think she is? Bethenny Frankel? She made some good points, but overall it was too much. I was sensing the Joyce feeling (BH Season 4) that people just wanted to shove her off her chair and not have to put up with her chirping the rest of the night. From what you're saying of what's going on behind the scenes, sounds like Kandi is almost ready to bounce...

That was a great performance from Lecy. Another drama-filled episode from this "comedy"

Dear God! I pity the fool who greenlights this... Literally NO ONE is asking for this. Who's next? OC's Meghan King Edmonds? They look mostly good! I like the color scheme of the set.

The 2013 AMC/OLTL Hulu reboots were a wee bit ahead of its time. Yes, you had popular shows solely available through streaming, but even 8 years ago, widespread streaming wasn't as commonplace as it is now. These days, if I forget about viewing a primetime network show (think dramas like This Is Us or A Million Little Things), it's available on Hulu the very next day. Millions of people have become conditioned to streaming versus recording (or watching live, which is practically unheard of nowadays, haha). It'd be awesome if they tried to reboot a soap again with a stronger production company backing it up. Chances are, Days of Our Lives will become a Peacock or Hulu exclusive show in the next 5 years.

Lucas blurts out he's dying of a brain tumor. TF?

So they revealed the killer today? Man, DAYS has the worst luck when it comes to pre-emptions these days... Gladys and Maybelle better figure out how to work their grandkids' computers!

True dat. All four soap operas still have the potential to be something great, but it's just not gonna happen, either because the TPTB don't know how to do it in this day and age, or because they just don't want to try. Still, I'd like to see DAYS hit 60 and just hope for a fantastic 60th anniversary year with many returns and walks down memory lane (Flashbacks! With no goofy sepia lighting or sparkles or laser beams or any type of goofy graphics that muck up how it originally aired)

Ooh love the taglines! The vets look amazing in their new shots! Yes, it feels short to only have 5 castmembers, especially since RHONY was the one U.S. Housewives series to have a whopping 8 castmembers at one point, giving us an opening nearly as long as Melrose Place's. RHOA: I gave Drew leeway all season long, but boy did she show her ass at the finale. God that reeked of desperation. It was like she did a last-minute crash course study on how to stir up [!@#$%^&*] at a Dinner Party From Hell and EVERYTHING fell flat. LOL, I loved how she tried so hard to explain her reasoning and everyone was just checked out. It's like, sis, read the room and stop; you lost. I can see them giving her another season unless they grow somes stones and do a hard reboot of Atlanta next season. Hubby and I were deciphering Drew's legacy. He equated her to a Kim Fields; I said a Claudia Jordan. We'll see if she's a one and done. I'll miss seeing Ralph though...

@DaytimeFan @Cat LOL love the attention to detail! What a fall from [dis]grace...

Well-produced at-home production. A bit lengthy for something that was just teaser. Now give us the tea already!

ATL: I thought exact same thing and came here to post the same, regarding Drew vs. LaToya as being shades of Kenya vs. Porsha Season 5: The two newbies having beef with one another while the veterans watch. This one falls flat though because they *both* look thirsty for the spotlight. I am okay with Drew overall, but she certainly isn't a breakout star as Kenya & Porsha became. I could see her lasting another season and then fade way into oblivion a la Eva. It's clear the producers are looking for the next "IT" girl and neither Drew nor LaToya fit the bill. Just my opinion. Keep your vets around (or bring 1-2 back) until you strike gold again... Was it just my imagination or was Marc's face blurred in the latest snippet of him? Beverly Hills: I echo what others say... we need to see a comeuppance of at least one of the coven members and Erottingcunt (ooh, did I go too far?) is ripe for the picking. I'm glad to see Dorit going against the grain again and calling out Erika & Tom's nefarious shenanigans. Elsewhere, I love seeing Sutton upgraded, and I predict she *won't* have a bad season; it's good to hear they upgraded her because she's so much in the thick of things.... love seeing Garcelle back... love seeing Kathy Hilton's presence; another sister casting a shadow over perpetually second-placed Kyle.... interesting how we didn't see too much of Rinna. Hmm, damage control?

Even though I wasn't a huge fan of the original Claire in general, she could definitely pull off the psycho tendencies; NuClaire certainly cannot.

I am pleasantly surprised to see how well New Jersey is bringing it this season, and Melissa is actually a big part of it, for once. Joey and Melissa's fight was very true to life and on the nose, as one of our good couple friends is literally having this same argument currently (the husband was the provider for many years while she stayed home with the kids; now the roles are reversed: he retired from the service and her career is starting to take off; the hubby can't handle her success and his newfound role as Mr. Mom). It was interesting for Joey to mention a couple times how "the first 15 years of marriage has been great, but the last year not so much." Geesh, men and their egos. Let your woman shine and f--k your pride with wanting to be the sole breadwinner. Otherwise, love the continuous fun banter between the wives and the [ex]hubbies. Dolores and Frank need to just be together and have an open marriage and let it be. They seem to be the type of couple where that would work. Jennifer instigated the fight last week re: Jen vs. Marge so it was tit for tat that Marge started something this time around.

Yeah, those Zolciak sex doll clones are so off-putting. Does the older one still get a build-up of saliva on the sides of her mouth when she speaks? +1 on Brooks Marks not deserving to be there. You know Andy just wants to bang him. That's his target age... Re: ATL I sure hope they finally put this Bolo drama to rest. To me, it was bordering on pantygate redundancy. I'm glad Kandi pointed out it shouldn't matter regardless of what did or didn't happen. It's NOT YOUR BUSINESS KENYA! Re: NJ That was a wild and crazy episode. Who'd o' thunk the episode would end with Teresa taking Instagrammable photos of Evan & Jackie on the boat. Will wonders never cease? Meanwhile, Jennifer was a messy instigator at the table. I'm still Team Margaret in the Jen vs. Marge debate. I hear Real Housewives of Beverly Hills promo is about to be released today....?!

.

Keep it up Kenya. This'll guarantee Drew a second season. :::shrug:::

I still enjoy Marge. Sue me. LOL. I don't blame her husband for denying saying anything and liked that the other husbands kept mum. They wanna stay out of the women fighting; other House-husbands should take note. Meanwhile, even though this Teresa/Jackie feud was exacerbated this season by Teresa, Jackie is the one that needs it to survive on this show, and it's.... draining. I'm going to call it early and say this will be her last season because this is her final leg to stand on. Other than that, fun episode. @Taoboi ITA on the Mean Girls analogy, and preferring the Teresa/Dolores/Jennifer car ride. And wow, those vibrators looked like bowling pins!

LOL Thaao Penghlis lets the cat out of the bag again! He also did an overseas interview back in early 2004 and revealed Marlena was the serial killer. Whoops!

I started watching The Crown about two weeks ago. Currently a couple episodes into season two. Admittedly I’m just working my way to get to Olivia Colman as the lead. Though I recently heard from a friend that season 3 is pointless and I should skip to season 4 with the intro of Diana.

Side Note: RHONY is back on Tuesdays!

Oh, this looks WONDERFUL! I love that we get a good dose of Heather back into the mix. It sounds like she won't be back ever again, but we can enjoy her while it lasts. Eboni looks to be a good fit for the Sex And the NYCity vets. Can't wait! NYC never disappoints.
