Yeah, Paris came on with such promise as a sort of free spirit, but the characterization has become so muddled and aimless. There’s really no reason for her to be on B&B, but if they keep screwing up and ditching/sidelining their black characters (or casting them with boring or uncharismatic actors, like Delon de Metz), they’re not going to gain traction. Paris and Carter have zero chemistry, though. It just screams “Throw the black folks in a corner.” Maybe Paris’s mom should go for $Bill. There are moments when I think they are pushing her towards Zende, which would be a massive fail.

I feel like they’re trolling us. It’s like Michelle Visage directing a RuPaul’s Drag Race maxi-challenge: “You gotta go BIGGER!”

Juilliard is so bad today.

OMG. I missed that. Yikes. She’s trying to kill her.

What did this bitch Esme put in Trina’s drink?

Iran’s national soccer team is very good-looking. 🇮🇷

Vivica A. Fox met up with Regina King over the weekend and talks about it on Cocktails with Queens (says she’s “doing ok”). Whew, this is emotional:

Oof. Same age as Regina’s son.

Worse than what we currently have, or just a different kind of pain?

Graziano from Italy 🇮🇹

Stuck in my head all day…

All that grey concrete makes the red dress pop.

Nice guys get fired every day for being sh!tty at their jobs. When they don’t get fired, time to look at the boss. Whatever JG’s doing is getting approved/supported on high or at least tolerated/ignored. I’m trying to imagine what JG’s Y&R would look like paired with Michael Malone.

Thick thighs save lives.

Where is Finn? His whole relationship with Sheila has been dropped. I’ve already mentioned Quinn not being around to watch Brooke’s unraveling and Paris/Carter.

That’s hysterical. And so spot on. Like whyyyyy? Make it make sense.

Murray Bartlett stays booked and busy.

Ok, they are playing this story in a very goofy way. So B&B.

Sometimes I feel like B&B uses one breakdown for several days and asks their daily scriptwriters to do their own interpretation of it.

Now Phyllis is talking about leaving Genoa City to take a job working with her daughter at Marchetti in Milan. C’mon, writers, don’t threaten us with a good time.
