They better put that in the next Emmy montage. Line of the year!

I'm glad the internet did its thing and ended Jill Zarin. I look forward to seeing Lu and Sonja and the other ladies on the E! show without her.

I agree - that was one of the best lines Josh Taylor has ever been given. And Roman was right…in the end…he did win. Agreed. I’ll always say yes to Kate. I liked her little monologue to Stefano’s urn. Lauren is always great.

My recollection was she said she had disease of alcoholism. You're right she did not say 'alcoholic' but I thought she did say 'alcoholism'.

That's how I feel as well. I was partly disappointed, but not completely, as Karen focused on her abuse of pills. However, I was glad that in the last segment she referred to herself as an alcoholic. I think Karen was definitely more accountable than Shannon, but less accountable than Luann, so her interview wasn't what I'd hoped it to be, but it wasn't a waste either. Luann did not try and sugar coat or wrap her issues in gauze...she just said it how it was, right down to eating a prison sandwich that still had the mustard packet in it. Shannon continues to excuse herself and flatly deny that she has a problem, when she literally drove into a house with her dog in the car too. The irony of it is Luann's crime was the least serious (drunk and disorderly, no vehicle involved, no risk to innocent parties), yet she took it more seriously than either Karen or Shannon have. My problem with the interview started when Karen talked about 'mentoring' the young women in prison...like she was already trying to cast herself in a positive light as this experienced woman full of wisdom. A truly wise person would realize she's at the very beginning of recovery and should humble herself more than she has. I think it was good that she didn't pretend everything with Ray was great. And it was also good that she didn't claim she deserved a second chance from viewers. I'm also glad she admitted to ignoring her lawyers when they gave her good advice - many clients would never do that. It was also good that she admitted Ashley's intel, while very old news (note Ashley omitted that part), was accurate. There is definitely something going on with Wendy though and I wonder if the reunion will shed light on it.

Page Six is reporting that the RHONY OGs Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, Jill Zarin, Kelly Bensimon and Ramona Singer have inked a deal for a new show on E! (which is no longer part of the NBCUniversal family and was spun off recently to a new owner): https://pagesix.com/2026/01/30/entertainment/original-rhony-cast-defects-from-bravo-with-new-show-for-rival-network/

She was brilliant in everything she did. I am so sorry to hear this news. She was a blessing and Canada was so proud of her.

"It's not proper!" had me laughing. I feel like absurd late 90s B&B is somehow back. Really enjoying the show at the moment.

I'm surprised that DAYS did not get nominated. I thought the writing for the episodes surrounding John's death was excellent.

Michael Fairman was on the red carpet and interviewed Dame Joan Collins (who was sick as a dog at the premiere but showed up), Jacob Young, Darin Brooks, Dyan Cannon, Juliette Mills & Maxwell Caulfield, and Donna Mills:

This week marks Lauren Koslow's 30th anniversary with DAYS. I'm a huge fan of hers, as most on this board will know, and hope she gets a little recognition for the consistent work she's put into the role of Kate.

This episode was wild. I loved production showing what a disorganized fool Angel is. That flying fishing lunch she had planned never made sense when you factored in the time to travel back to the airport. What a mess! I cannot imagine her returning. Karen will be welcomed back with open arms. I just hope she plays her cards right like Lu did. That has to be it because she was the exact opposite of a skilled hostess.

I think Louise as a special guest star for limited runs works perfectly for her as she's based in New York, and for the show. She gets to play real scenes and no filler. The show's filming schedule is efficient in that they can get a lot of episodes out of 1 - 2 weeks of on set time for the actor. From your lips to God's ears...they're really overdue and Lauren and Louise are terrific together.

Always great to see Vivian and the wonderful Louise Sorel.

Nah, not a smear campaign at all. I think she deserves the Emmy for the scenes involving John's death. You are absolutely right that Deidre carried the show for decades. There's no denying that. There's also no denying that she has had, and continues to have, problems with some of her colleagues and she is not good at covering her disdain for them when onscreen.
