Lol he’s adorable. He seems your type actually! -
Casper Ruud is super cute.

“Covid-related” is such an odd, mealy-mouthed way of putting it.
-
Amanda… now only exists to tut-tut or be a talk-to for Phyllis and Imani (who has more of a story as a recurring character at the moment than her on-contract sister).

Zverev just got badly injured, looks like. Rolled his ankle in a very ugly way, screamed in pain, and started crying. Has to be taken in a wheelchair off court.

Sascha is so unclutch, it’s unbelievable.

Is every man named Colton gay? Colton Underwood, Colton Haynes…

Early projections suggest that Kate Bush will score her first U.S. top 10 hit with “Running Up That Hill,” which is resurgent 37 years after its initial release due to its prominent use in the latest season of Stranger Things.

Totally. Just in general I feel like GH goes through the motions with stories. The only energy this show has is solely from the actors and when someone isn’t pulling their weight (like Marcus Coloma), it really shows. I just don’t think the writers know who Nikolas is. They are all over the place with him. MC can’t really find his way and has been propped by the excellent actors around him (Maura, Nicholas Chavez, and Genie).

The sex montage was just such ‘90s cheese, like two horny high schoolers finally hooking in a teen movie. Just a weird tonal choice for their first fûck. For me the whole story is lame, outside of the obvious innuendo of a dad bedding his son’s girlfriend. I think they pulled their punches with Nikolas. He’s just been a total dumbass throughout this story, a brainless himbo being manipulated by a young vixen, instead of someone taking a clearer, more intentional role in this situation. Part of it is MC sucks in the role. He’s just not good. His choices are so flat.

The older Susan Walters gets, the closer her performance as Diane feels to Alex Donnelly’s. Not the unbridled rage part, but the calm knowingness to really see through someone and get under their skin. AD just happened to have it at a much younger age. As good as she could be during her initial run, SW didn’t really have the gravitas for it in her younger years. Imani finally showed some fire with Amanda. Allie, OTOH, looks ready to be played.

A sad commentary that a black actor has to be a bonafide, Primetime Emmy-winning household name for RC to give them the time of day. Then again, shame on the other soaps for barely bothering to showcase black talent.

LOL finally someone at CNN understands they overuse the “Breaking News” banner. When everything is “Breaking News,” nothing is. It’s a problem with a lot of news channels these days:
-
I also agree with this. Avery Pohl never seemed more like a junior high student than when she was romping with this middle-aged man. And that’s fine if they wanted to lean into the creepy factor (GH doesn’t have the balls to do that), but they tried to play it as this highly dated, MTV-style frenetic rush of a sex scene. It’s like they don’t actually watch their own show and see how things are playing.

I’m not sure how I feel about this franchise. It looks beautiful and expensive and it’s interesting to view Dubai through a very Black and Arab/Emirati lens (so funny to see Caroline Stanbury as this cast’s Kim Zolciak, the sole Western white woman). But that ending argument felt so boring and basic to me. Like you have this fascinating setting, and you’re gonna give us overly rehearsed, Standard Housewives Drama? To be clearer, it just didn’t make me care to see more of this particular group of women interacting. Felt kinda stale and forced in terms of the dynamics, even though it’s a very diverse group of women. I don’t feel a sense of history or layers.

DWTS’ original EP is in talks to return.

Here’s something for the Kinsey Sicks 😉

Not to scandalize the Kinsey Sixes among us, but just wanted to give Jennifer Connelly her flowers for being a hot, hot lady:

Young John Pleshette is oddly sexy. *runs and hides
