Maybe they see the field and are pretty sure most of the 2nd tier or most of the tour can’t keep it together.

What Are You Listening To?
They always do a ton of covers, but I love Broken Peach. This one is original, "Give it Up". Poppy, Rocky, New Wavy, Trash Glam....I like it. I could see this one making it mainstream. I only listen to Sirius XM so I have no idea what's on regular radio these days.

God someone shut Alexandra Stevenson up. It’s like Joann Russell has returned from the 80s. Someone like this saying things like “she probably should have….” Don’t do that. You were awful. So don’t do that.

That's why I really don't care about her. She is crazy. She's like her Mom - thinks with her jayjay.

Was it Brett Haber? He's terrible. Didn't have to be him, but sounds like it could be...he was in the DC area for awhile, sports commentator and was the worst, then somehow, some way - bam he was into the Tennis spotlight. I cannot figure it out. Practically no one can. Maybe he had dirt on someone and scraped his way to the top.

I feel like Collins somewhere has a slam in her - kind of a Mary Pierce type of player that goes for broke. But she went down hard in the tie break - when she's over it, you can see it on her face. I'm from Virginia so I'm a fan - she tends to look a little bratty at times, and a little temper, but I like her. I loved that one tournament during COVID when she yelled at her then-boyfriend.....something like - 'Do you HAVE to sit THERE? You literally have the whole stadium. MOVE." It cracked me up.

ALL: Most Memorable, Iconic Lines from Soaps
GL - I remember Alan frantically looking for Annie....rushes into the room (at the Spaulding Mansion?). Amanda and Roger sitting on the couch....I don't remember whether Annie had escaped from (mental institution, jail? which?), but Alan "Has anyone seen Annie?! Have you seen Annie?" Amanda, raising a bowl of cashews: "Nuts?"

B&B June 2023 Discussion Thread
Whose marriage gets annulled ASAP? That’s next. I have missed it since that day I posted. Honestly if they would try anything new - have Liam bang Mama Tay Tay - she be pissed at Bridge again, have her go after her rival’s baby girl man lolllll. Call it boot banging anger sex. I still think the better idea would have been the mystery person snapping pics of Liam and Steffy - could find out later it’s Quinn or Mary or whoever - don’t even have to know what you’re gonna do yet. At least something to add a little interest. Maybe it’s angry Rick that Steffy the golden child is running Forrester. Maybe it was Thomas himself as a just in case (dunno if they were in different parts of the city at that time but when does B&B care about timing). Lots of options tho. Instead it sounds like more Liam and Ridge and the women again and again.

B&B June 2023 Discussion Thread
I actually tuned in after reading stuff on here because the only reaction I really wanted to see was Liam's, in case something should happen, I tuned in about 10 minutes left. I thought Scott Clifton did great with the material. It has occurred to me for a few years though - Liam is really Ridge, Hope is really Brooke. The relationships are the same. And the characters are the same - and Steffy is Taylor -they never know who to put her with. Finn is temporary, and this story will likely prove it. Dishrag Ridge/Liam, Ho from the Valley always following her heart=Brooke/Hope. Liam and his women, Ridge and his women. Steffy and Taylor and their - men for right now. And Finn will be the latest right now. Until she decides Wyatt may not be so bad after all, and then that will be really Hope's true love again she'll decide. Until they both have to have Liam again. And on and on and on. Finn will possibly knock Liam into next week - but Finn will get angry and get crazy - just like his Mom - and may be the reason she gets out of jail. But Steffy/Hope/Liam is just like Taylor/Ridge/Brooke. Throw in Deacon as a bone but it'll always be Brooke and Ridge in the end. When there is a last show if they're all still here, the final scene no matter what will be Brooke and Ridge - and Eric just before the end, probably imagining Stephanie.

Sheila broke out of jail and somehow got to Rome and snapped a picture of Liam and Steffy kissing? I mean it was time for something like that from what I’m reading. Why not have anyone, don’t even need to show who it is - or even know who it is at this point - someone shoulda gotten pics. Tried and true blackmail, always a winner if you’re going to go down the same road repeatedly. Don’t even need to plan who the blackmailer is for now. Great way to introduce a new character too.

B&B June 2023 Discussion Thread
I missed it - I was going to ask if Liam had found Hope and Thomas kissing yet, because a kiss = an annulment. And we've seen this story 10,000 times so that's what was going to happen. Along with no one knowing how to text or the phones are conveniently lost or broken. There are no divorces because it's B&B even if it's been 10 years and 8 children later. So has the annulment happened yet? Why is it taking so long? And have Liam and Steffy slept together yet? She should be pregnant by now by Liam, this show is moving too slow. Has Bill run into Ridge and Brooke yet and professed his love and the fight for Brooke's heart is back on again?

B&B June 2023 Discussion Thread
Again with that. It's always been a problem for this show. It's too much for me to look past. The whole world recognizes and knows them. Except, then no one knows them. They have 1,000,000 followers, and there's always Influencer stuff being mentioned and how many "likes" and thumbs up and all that stupid stuff. It's really glaring then when - no one knows who they are. No one knows who Sheila is. But the LA PD is chasing her by car. But no one can tip them off because.....why? No one knows who any of them are? But you have had countless stories where thousands upon thousands and millions of followers on social media....are following. Along with accidents or traffic in LA - where on this show at least, not very many people live. Lots of deserted highways, because no one lives around....Hollywood? hahahahaha.

I thought Bill was the stallion? @Jeff - who is THAT cuteness pointing in the pic? You know, when I try to watch once in a while, I think I finally understand people's hatred of my love for Josh and Reva on Guiding Light. And the endless stories of them being with someone else, yet finding their way back to each other. But I will say this - I guess I was younger then and soaps still held a magic for me. But I also think - I just liked Robert Newman, Kim Zimmer, and I LIKED the other characters for the most part on Guiding Light. I still cared because I felt like, no matter HOW bad the writing, how bad the story....Robert and Kim could sell pretty much anything and make me believe and overlook really bad errors. I bought everything they sold. Ditto Jordan Clarke, Maeve Kincaid, Grant Aleksander, Michael O'Leary, Maureen Garrett, Michael Zaslow, and keep that train of a list going. I just LOVED the people and the characters. B&B just never has had that for me. For me, they just do not. And the cast can't carry this.

Off for Juneteenth - and caught the very end. Did Thomas see that shirt in a window and just had to have it? It was only missing the rod.

Y&R June 2023 Discussion Thread
I have not watched - not even 5 minutes in the past probably - year. So I have no idea what's going on because I haven't read anything about it either I realized. But today - I tune in briefly - was this show without a Director? Sharon was being held by some guy, a girl (Faith? Aw, I like the other Faith unless this one has changed that much? Had no idea she was gone) - ANYWAY, Sharon held at gun or knifepoint with Faith got bombs strapped to her. Sharon bitin'guy to get away and successfully does. And Nick and Faith just stand there. There was no screamish, or happy that she bit him or stabbed him and got away....and he got shot. Did no one notice this? It was jarring and laughable - Nick and Faith standing there watching like....not in slow motion really, or.....I dunno? YO, NICK and FAITH can-I-get-a-reaction-outta-ya are ya thrilled Sharon is alive or not?

Should have had an indictment party - it's almost worth my sobriety. Just thought I'd say that. I love that by reports - he will be led through a tunnel. Good. Like the vermin he is.

Marco Rubio the talking asshat on CBS this morning. Going on and on about how = let the voters decide. What an utter. Complete. DUMBASS. And talking about it being "political". You know what, you dumbass? You better be GLAD it's political - because your party lost their MINDS over Hillary and it was perfectly FINE that investigation re-opened WEEKS before the election. YOU LOVED IT, YOU ASSHAT. Now, suddenly THIS one is political. Has it EVER occured to Republicans - that WHO CARES. SOMETHING IS BEING DONE FOR YOU. Because YOU did NOTHING. And he was going to WHIP YOUR ASS again. AND THEN SAID HE WOULD AGREE THAT TRUMP IS THE BETTER CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT. Someone who is about TO BE A CRIMINAL. THIS is the best the Republican party can do? What in the ACTUAL hell with this country????

I live 1/2 mile from Trump National in Sterling, VA. It's been so smoky, odd smells this week with the fires and such. The latest scent though smelled kind of....back-side-related. Like all of Trump National took a big collective shi* or gave the most deadly of the farts - the Silent Murphy Fart. Fabulous.

I'm kind of sorry that it happened now for Trump. I hoped it would drag on well into the primaries so that he'd tear all of them apart. Now, there's too much recovery time for them. And I still hold to what I've always said - if we ever have a female as President, it will be Republican. A huge % of women do not really like strong women. They like stupid subservient ones. Like Palin. Like Haley.

Girl you're on it. I thought the same exact thing. Watch Saudi start tournaments for all ailing sports because - Oil. I've said for years that with electric technology in cars - they know their days are numbered. Not that if they ever paid ANY attention to their money - they'll never have to worry again - the upper crust anyway and oil families. But this is clearly their next grab - just take over the multi billion dollar sports industry - watch it happen. The PGA sucks for this but can you blame them? Look on the dude's face was regretful, sadness, and throwing in the towel. We've been beaten and you can't hide it. You can't beat money. Scary. Aside, someone remind me why the French was my favorite tournament? The days of Chrissie, Martina, Steffi and Monica - along with the people in-between that were powerhouses that spiced things up - like Capriati, Clijsters (loved her), Mary Pierce, and later the group led by the Williams sisters....it's all over. Maybe it has been and I hadn't noticed. But this has been a YAWNER. Where the hell have I been?

What I don't understand is that I hear this over and over and over from the Right. Do they believe elections have always been rigged - but only when they lose??? Republicans have lost at the ballot box many many times - it was just the electoral college that saved them. And it's the reason they fight tooth and nail against statehood for DC - because DC would then have 2 senators and at least 1 vote in the House. And they know what side the city sways. But Gore, Clinton (Hillary), Biden all WON in the number of votes/popular vote. Only on the 3rd example did Democrats actually WIN the Presidency because of the electoral college. People have blinders on and I don't know why - they don't understand that NO, every vote does NOT count under an electoral college system. If every vote counted, then those are 3 different Presidents we would have had. It's funny to me that they do NOT see the plain number of votes.

This is exactly what I do not understand. If you were a police officer wouldn't you be somewhat wary of the "ask" here?? Wouldn't you know - wait, what am I doing? What's my job here? Because I think I'm finished. But I do not think that happened. And see, this is why I'm sketchy with the police. They don't know they also have boundaries in MANY instances, and I feel like maybe he thought his status as a retired police meant - basic principles don't apply to me. Or, I don't need to worry about some basic due diligence because of who I am.

I've only read a little bit, but - I still don't exactly understand why he wouldn't be found guilty of at least harassment. (I actually don't understand most of it) - if I was working for someone, I guess it's possible to not really know who you work for? I guess if dirty money is paying you and you don't really know where the money came from? But you're happy to get paid so you wouldn't care? I guess I understand that. But what I don't understand is I've seen where he voluntarily gave advice and expertise on how to effectively harass someone, things to do to make them uncomfortable. Not any of my business but - I don't know how that make you a great investigator. There's a difference in doing an investigation and finding someone - as that's what you were tasked to do. Then once you've found the person - is that part of your job? To then harass them or basically stalk them? You found the dude or dude-ette, isn't your job done there? I feel like someone could totally see that line being crossed.

I haven't seen but - how much drama would there be that a plane is grounded in San Francisco and your destination was......LA???? That's like - 28 hours apart by plane right? So God, you could never DRIVE it. LOLLLLLL. And when I read about - any storyline with "influencers" or social media. Yawn. Admirable try but it just adds to the disbelief that you have to have to watch this show. Again, millions of followers and social media presence but.....no one knows them. It just doesn't work.
