Melbourne: Caught up on the episodes. Why is Gamble so fixated on Venus? It's odd. I get that Venus isn't the easiest character to get along with, but Gamble is doing too much. It was nice to see Chyka again. I miss her. I do find Sally to be a poor man's version of Chyka. I hope Sally pans out to be something interesting instead of being a dud. I do believe Lydia that Janet talked sh-t about Jackie during that lunch. I've never bought the "closeness" between the two. I think come reunion time, Lydia is gonna spill all and will have the ammo to back it up. Picture-gate was stupid. Who cares if Venus had pics on them? What was she gonna do with them? Practically nothing. While odd, I would've laughed it off and posed so she could take another one. Also, wasn't Gamble just investigating Venus' hubby and the validity of his title? An eye for an eye. BH: Glad Dorit and Rinna have buried the hatchet for now. Erika was being a twat to Teddi tonight. As we say in the South, "she's starting to smell herself." In other words, she's letting the clout she has on the show get to her head. I pray that Teddi ends up being the housewife that finally knocks Erika's ass down to size. Dorit could've done it last season had she not had PK interfering. I think Teddi might just be the one to knock that halo off Erika's head. *fingers crossed* LVP calling out Erika was good too. Was nice to see them bond a bit even though I doubt it'll last long. Erika sees LVP as a threat to the crown and is dead set on seeing her demise. Tonight was a solid episode. I do wish that they'd give Camille talking heads. I find it insulting how she's just window draping for this show when it was Camille who put BH on the map. People (production that is) better recognize greatness when they see it.

Why was Donna opposed to it? B/c Thomasina was Black or b/c of their class differences? I'm interested to hear about this.

Based off tonight, it might seem like one of them might've survived. Which one, IDK. Honestly, I wish they would've just had the girls leave town to go live with Tanya.

I thought it was stupid and cheap thrills too. It was like they were trying to do Bradley's death all over again; however, Max will be blamed and people will say he pushed the 2 women off. I just find it stupid that a little blow of wind took them off the building. I laughed if anything b/c it was absurd. I don't like the direction they've taken Max this past year. I don't see Jake Wood lasting much longer on this show, sadly. After R&R went out as a duo last year around this time, I found it stupid EE would do the same sh-t yet again a year later. Just shows that this show is running low on fumes and its end might be near.

Very true. I think everyone can agree that many of the remaining long-time characters at the end of the show did maintain their integrity in the end for the most part, which made me somewhat happy with the end.

^ This. Greg is saying the same thing that Mariah has been spouting for years. Quad is all about image and herself. She doesn't give a damn about anyone else. Now she feels she does not need Greg, she wants to discard him, but not before presenting the image that she is the victim and Greg is the bad guy. It's the same card she played with Mariah. Same book, same strategy, different person. Again, Quad's downfall is gonna be glorious.

Oh wow. I didn't know they were entertaining Thomasina and Ben too. A lot of the old school writers were so progressive and ahead of the curve in their storytelling, but it sucks that the audience and sponsors were not.

That scene was somewhat foreshadowing (in a weird way) as she died the same way years later. But was it just me or did there seem to be some chemistry between Quinn and Gil? Were they entertaining pairing the 2 together?

Sherry Mathis is just majestic in those grieving scenes. I just wish someone would post the episodes leading to TR's kidnapping/Travis' death. I'd really like to actually see them for once.

Just saw the wedding episodes of Toni/Alan, and good God Greta was one tormented child. The scenes with her trying to conjure up Mike's "spirit" was odd too. My God, she was a child that went through a lot. From what little I've seen of the character in the 80s, no wonder why she drove story and was so interesting in the last years of the show. She had one colorful history.

Child... The girls are gonna have a field day with this mess.

OK. Makes sense seeing as she was never referenced in later episodes. So what happened to her? I'm guessing either her original parents or the system came to reclaim her?

Well they can't deny that Mariah isn't an asset now b/c ratings bounced back up once she popped back up. Mariah does provide balance to this show. As she said in the video, who wants to watch people in depressing marriages during the holidays? I sure as hell don't. I want drama and messiness and Mariah provides it. Some could say Heavenly does too, but my issue with that beast is that she goes overboard; she gets too personal and has no boundaries. If someone was to say something about "Daddy" or Alaura, she'd be ready to fight. But she [Bullfrog] better leave the Huq family alone b/c that ain't what she wanna play with. Mariah, Lake, Ms. Lucy, and even Ayden seem like the type that they'll f-ck her up if push comes to shove. And I don't even care for Quad. We all know that she's a fraud and everything Mariah said about her is true. Mariah just needs to leave Quad alone b/c Quad will self destruct in due time. People like her always do. She'll crash & burn; especially, when Dr. G finally leaves her ass and she doesn't have a safety blanket anymore.

^ This. Plus, what she's doing to Dr. G is the same sh-t she's doing to Mariah. Quad is a user. Once she gets where she needs to be and is done using you, she'll cast you aside. I hope this results in her ass leaving the show for good. I'm long been over that dusty potato. SN: Mariah did another FB live with her sister, Lake, and her mother, Lucy. Boy did they go in!

Wait? Liza and Travis had another daughter? I know that TR was their adopted daughter, but who's baby girl is that? I just thought that they had Tourneur.

Should've known. Thanks for blessing me with this story. God, I miss that era of the show when the Kings were at Home Farm and constantly causing chaos in the village. Sadly, we'd shortly lose Tom, Sadie, and Matthew.
