K&A’s problem was that it was on CBS. I feel like the only ‘80s CBS sitcom (prior to Designing Women and Murphy Brown) with any sort of legacy is Newhart, and even that’s pushing it.

This guy from the Japanese water polo team is adorbs:

King from GA 🇺🇸

JMW has maternity leave coming up, so…

Ezza in Taiwan 🇹🇼

Dee from LA 🇺🇸

Iga, wow. She just destroyed Anett Kontaveit. It was 2-2 in the first set and Anett didn’t win another game.

B&B regularly asks us to have selective amnesia about stories they *just* told. And Taylor’s troubled recent history has been completely whitewashed so that Bradley can tell this story. It’s obvious that he thinks that complicated history would interfere with the effectiveness of the story (or simply overcomplicate things for us dummies, who need a clearer distinction between messy Brooke and sainted Taylor), but it actually makes things boring. He has zero respect for his viewers. It’s funny and predictable. Things were looking so up for a while, but B&B always goes to sh!t. Bradley was making some positive moves by shoring up the older cast with KB, SK, and KA; not going to the tired $Bill well; and moving away from the endless Hope/Liam/Steffy merry-go-round (this must be the longest stint on the back burner Scott Clifton has had in memory), but Bradley always reveals himself to be who he is. Diamond looks like she’s in physical pain every time she kisses LSV.

Leonardo from Rio 🇧🇷

Oh no. I wish her the best.

It’s some of the most uncomfortable-looking kissing I’ve ever seen.

Preach. I feel like B&B just photocopies scripts and reuses them at times. I was actually surprised to see Carter today. They did a recap of his story because he’d been off screen for so long.

LOL at his caption, which is about right.

I don’t mind Louise. Those old lady names have been in for a little while, and I think they’re cool. Bring on Ruby, Hazel, Mabel, and Hortense!

Ignacio Pérez Rey from Spain 🇪🇸

Maksim is in Kiev and has posted on Instagram about the situation:

LOL. The camera lingered on his butt in those sweatpants *twice*. They definitely wanted to draw attention to it. Haha. This characterization of Gabi is super weird and ditzy. Is there a story behind her behavior that I’m missing?

Ah, they’re ok. Not bad. IMO, Paul Telfer is the king of the pectorals. Spirtas is so nasal and affected in his delivery during this current stint.
