Wow. Loved the campy drama of “Paradise by the Dashboard Light,” “Total Eclipse of the Heart,” and “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now.”

Rena and Lawrence are so pretty, though. I know Bradley would botch it like he does everything else, and it doesn’t feel “in character” for Carter (whatever that means), but at least there are superficial pleasures potentially involved.

I have no idea. I know there’s a tradition of Y&R characters breaking into song, but that was painful.

As I was about to post, CBS2 just broke into Y&R for a police news conference. I figure if the Chauvin verdict happens this afternoon, we’ll see a lot of preemptions.

There’s been another mass shooting, this time at a Long Island grocery store, so the NYC area is seeing preemptions.

Probably the only good moment of the finale... And wow... ♉️

I like Gizelle too! But I also love Karen. Their banter is A+. I pretty much can find something to enjoy with everyone on Potomac (yes, even Candiace). One thing: the RHOP women are ALL skilled fighters. There’s not a shrinking violet in the bunch. Beverly Hills is (almost) the opposite for me, which is why I won’t be watching. I just don’t find these women likable. At all. It’s unpleasant as a viewer. Those first 2-3 seasons (and select later moments like Amsterdam) were brilliant, though.

The reunion was meh, but this was great.

The Advocate went in:

New No. 1 (Polo G’s “Rapstar”) and “Blinding Lights” finally exits the top 10 after a record-breaking 57 weeks:

Drew should be a one and done. Sick of her. Her family stuff isn’t compelling enough to save her.

Powerful message from the brother of Scott Rudin’s former assistant (who took his own life):

She sounded like a hoot. Love that Lauren Bacall story.

Not been a good week for hip hop: Black Rob and DMX are both on this:

Preach.
