Melrose Place
I think I remember reading a quote in Digest around the time of Melrose's cancellation from a Fox exec saying they could pay for producing 7 pilots with Locklear's salary alone.

Melrose Place
I definitely consider those last 6 episodes a part of the 6th season. The first real episode of season 7 is an immediate reset of the show. I remember that's what their plan was. They knew they had veered off course and wanted to get back to the basics like how it started - with 9 main characters interacting with one another.

Yeah. Klobuchar's rise was unexpected. I think her own camp figured New Hampshire was their last stop. Makes me wonder what could've been for Kamala... On one hand, these debates seem so repetitive and pointless. On the other hand, these endless debates seem to harm those who've been longtime frontrunners (Biden, Warren) while giving newfound hope for those we didn't expect to go far (Buttegieg, Klobuchar). One constant, sadly, is Bernie. Now, with Bloomberg's polls on the rise, this morning as I see NBC discussing tomorrow's debate, the top 5 does not even include Elizabeth Warren. Wow. I certainly didn't think Klobuchar would be the woman on top, outlasting Kamala and soon (?) Warren. Meanwhile, how long until the official announcement that Tulsi is running 3rd party? Jill Stein will be sure to give her tips...

DAYS: Behind the Scenes, Articles/Photos
Love it! A lot of those are from their 1999 and 2009 (or 10?) soundtracks they released, but there's some added ones I've never heard in good quality, such as the 3rd one, "Racing Against Time" which was used in the scene where Rolf activates the satellite while Hope is laying in the snow during the blizzard, and she has a long series of Hope vs. Princess Gina flashbacks.

Saved By the Bell
https://tvline.com/2020/02/18/saved-by-the-bell-revival-lisa-turtle-lark-voorhies-not-returning/ Saved by the Bell's Lark Voorhies 'Slighted and Hurt' About Being Excluded From Revival — Watch Gosh, I don't know what's plaguing her besides being bipolar, but with the constant shakiness and strange pauses when she speaks, she looks so fragile. I feel bad for her. She appears on Dr. Oz tomorrow (Wednesday).

Was thinking the same thing - either way, it's going to be trainwreck TV. And at the end of the day, we will barely know any more than we already did about each candidate.... except *maybe* Bloomberg and what his stance/platform is on multiple issues, but that'll be overshadowed by Bernie screaming at him for buying his way in.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
I was coming here to ask the same thing! Whatever happened to good ol' Diana? My God, that busted up crew is probably a bunch of fans she gave a $20 to. That was weird. Gotta say, her apology tour (to quote Cynthia) fell flat. It's amazing how you can have a heart-to-heart and get all boo-hoo about it, yet not cop to anything. And when she does, it's only when it's agreed that "both parties did some stuff." Mmkay.

This! Bloomberg's ads are GREAT. I'm hoping the next one will target his non-Christian behavior and his love of money, not God. Plant seeds of doubt and chip away at those evangelicals. And what better way to ensure they hear the message than to air it on Faux News, the mecca of lies and propaganda. Bonus points if they used direct clips from Fox News' Mother Tucker Carlson or Sham Hannity in those ads.

Melrose Place
Haha! Hilarious. Sam & Billy are the worst, but their pick makes more sense since they were both long-running popular characters.

Perfectly stated. RHONY is always a breath of fresh air, and those women hang and party together whether the camera crew is there or not. Meanwhile, I'm itching for POTOMAC to return too!

In 2016, I was in a state (Illinois) that was heavily pro-Hillary but I still gladly voted (I'm ashamed to admit, it was my first time voting in a presidential election, despite being able to vote since '04). But this year? We're in the almighty important Wisconsin. And I'll be damned if I don't vote against Trump -- even if it just means cancelling out my dad's....

Looks messy good! I will admit, there's something missing with Bethenny gone, but these women still know how to throw it down! Sonja peeing in the cornfield... lawdy... at least, I *hope* it was just peeing she was doing...

Ditto. We gotta stop falling in love with our candidates and simply fall in line.

Turn around Warren & Klobuchar and it'd be perfectly ideal. That thought that used to rattle around in my head that Biden would pick Kamala as VP doesn't seem to matter much anymore, but who knows what SC, NV, and Super Tuesday will bring...

"The Conners" Discussion Thread
He did well! In fact, he got more lines in the live episode than all previous episodes combined! I kid, but not entirely... I loved the live episode! It was flawless. No mistakes. There was a few prolonged pauses as they cut between scenes or to commercial break, but nothing noteworthy.

I noticed that, too. I guess it was important in terms of people's motivations, re: Kenya, Cynthia, Cookie lady. Kenya going after Tanya is like a pitbull going after a toy chihuahua (see my tiny lil angel in my avatar). This fight just isn't necessary. Tanya may be a Patty Simcox overly positive suck-up, but she's harmless. Oy. Mama Joyce is back to hating on Todd? Ugh...

Agreed 1000% I love me some Michelle Obama, but the whole "when they go low, we go high" approach is not working! We are living in a different era now, and by going the high road in the political field, we are getting our asses raped day in and day out. It's time to fight dirty or else we'll drown.

Honey, I'm right there with ya. With Trump looking like he's high as a kite on painkillers and Bernie looking like the grim reaper is knocking at his door, God may finally prove to us he exists by ridding us of both this year. C'mon God; show us that prayers do come true.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Agreed. The ball is in her court if she can make enough noise to warrant another year. Albeit, another year at a reduced salary, no doubt. Otherwise, Bravo has set themselves up quite nicely to phase her out without it causing a huge hole in the show's overall canvas. To be honest, I don't miss her when she's not on. If she comes to the reunion with the same stank attitude as last year, she's done.

Melrose Place
Agreed! They had only one good scene with Amanda/Sydney bunking together. And, forgot this lil tidbit until now as I'm watching, but for a short while in season 4, Sydney and Kimberly are living together at Melrose! That could've been milked, but we got nary a drop.

... Yet when Hillary coughed, it was all over the news that she's dying. Here's to hoping whatever is secretly plaguing him takes him out this year. Does that make my karma rotten? So be it.

Melrose Place
I would love to see how they originally edited the season 3 finale, since the explosion was supposed to air at the very end until Oklahoma City happened in real life. I wonder what the last shot would've been before they faded/froze to black.

Melrose Place
Which, by the way, it's funny how post-explosion once the apartment is completely rebuilt, the establishing footage shown is like nothing had ever happened. Everything looks the same; same weathered look, whether it's old or new, and even the same exact plants, trees, landscaping as it was before. I guess it's like Family Guy, Simpsons, or any other cartoon where the characters wear the same clothes because it's comfortable and familiar to the audience.

Melrose Place
Haha yes, the random people in the first 1 or 2 episodes. In some of the early episodes when they show establishing shots of Melrose, you see some random stranger slowly about to make their way down the steps of Rhonda's studio (Amanda's eventual apartment). I say slowly because the shot is clearly in super slow-motion. The apartment complex building itself is a mystery. If you look at the layout, Matt's apartment simply could not exist unless it was a tiny studio. Alison's apartment/bedroom completely overlap his apartment. Meanwhile, in the first season, the luxurious steps up to one apartment (Amanda's eventually) went to Rhonda's studio. Funny that the single studio apartment would get the fancy entrance way. If you were to do a layout of Melrose, I'm sure some placements of windows wouldn't work either (i.e. Jake's bedroom next to Jane/Michael's bedroom, etc.). I am putting way too much thought into this [!@#$%^&*] lol
