It’s funny that both of those characters happened during Sussman’s reign. They weren’t particularly well-written but they had potential. Mal had no interest in either.

Soaps have so many opportunities to cast nonwhite actors in different roles, and they don’t take them. For example, Ashland and Tara on Y&R could have been nonwhite, even with the twist of Kyle being Tara’s baby daddy. (I realize shows need to be careful with “negative” portrayals.)

Hurkacz does move well for a bigger guy. What a run he had to the title.

LOL I’m not watching, but I’m hearing the Hurkacz/Sinner final is a mess.

It’s like they are trying to torture the audience.

Chance?

These Cam/Joss scenes are so bad. Makes me yearn for the days of Jonathan Jackson and Amber Tamblyn. LW is learning firsthand how awful her SO is.

Roberto is certainly no pushover. There’s a reason why he troubles Medvedev so much.

Sinner beats RBA.

And Bradley Whitford. Those end credits are so ‘80s it’s sickening.

Ratings were *huge last night for the SVU/OC episodes with Christopher Meloni returning. *For 2021 live viewing, that is. 1.6/1.5 in 18-49, around 7.6 million total viewers in early numbers.

Wow, Hurkacz just beat Tsitsipas. This is when things get really interesting. Stef was EASILY the favorite with Daniil out.

Just when I was singing William Lipton’s praises, today’s early scenes between Cam and Joss are a rare miss from him. Yikes.

Yeah, I changed the channel to Y&R, which shows how bad it was.

Ditto.

I am liking how smug and smirky Sally is to Phyllis. She’s so unbothered.

I hope I love anything in life as much as Bill De Blasio loves sh!tting on Andrew Cuomo in press conferences. The gleeful schadenfreude is just palpable.
