Today was absolutely stellar. Can I say that I love Nick Bellini?! That dog will hunt when he has a scent. Oh I am so glad that he has John pegged. It just frustrates me that now Althea does not believe Nick. I guess this is where Penny might come into play. Is this scene an indicator that Nick will now be tossed into Ann's orbit going forward? Cathy was a great, complex character. I love how she delivered a fatal blow to John by taking him down before taking her fatal fall.

In my Carmel voice: "Kushy! Kushy! Shaki! Shaki!" What grown ass men would even answer to that? If I were Kush, I would've stayed hidden under the rubble until she shot up, or if I were Shaki, I would've stayed on the bus. Carmel is a f-cking embarrassment. I'm sorry but some of these actors reactions were over the top tonight. Especially, Bonnie Langford. Boy did she chew the f-ck out of the scenery alongside Lacey Turner, Emma Barton, and a few others. I get people are supposed to be hysterical but they took it to the max. You would've thought that a bomb was dropped on them. Diane Parrish was the jewel tonight for me. She didn't take it overboard with her reaction. She was restrained enough for me that I believe she was shaken by the experience. So glad that Denise recoiled when Kim came around and reminded her just what she said. Not surprised that Martin's meathead ass was trapped under the bus. I bet he'll be in favor of the stalls being moved now. I don't believe that Whitney is under the bus at all. It is an obvious red herring. It'll be Lee, which is a stupid and cheap way to send the character off. Basically, if you are a depressed young man, you're weak and will get killed by a bus is what I took from the whole ordeal. Once again, I hate how the episode ending up being about Mick instead of the others. I'm mentally prepping for the next few months to be all about Mick. Lauren & Steven ... why?! They should've brought Steven back as gay, which is what he was originally, and had him chasing after Ben or Johnny. So not only is Keegan a bully but he is a thief too? Thanks, EastEnders for further perpetuating that young Black men are nothing but hostile, crass thugs that steal and assault people. I'd've preferred Keegan be blown up in the bus instead of continuing to watch this crud.

This makes me very happy!

Exactly. We've seen tons of scenes of Ben caring for Phil, which boggles me but I digress. However, we don't the shoe on the other foot. When it comes to Sharon, I blame Letitia and the writers. Letitia has enough clout at EE/BBC that she out to file a complaint and demand Sharon gets her backbone back. I miss the old Sharon that was vampish, combative, and vengeful at times. Now she's a damn drip. I FF through her scenes as of late b/c I cannot stand to watch it. Phil becoming involved with this child is farce. He'll do this 'good deed' to get a clean conscious but in six months flat, he'll be back to the same old shenanigans. I feel like Phil should've been hit and killed by the bus if the writers had any sense.

Ugh! Why?! I felt like Denise (and Phil too) giving up that child was so much more powerful. I am not interested in seeing a power struggle between Denise & Phil over this baby with Phil emerging victorious. It is predictable and not realistic. What court would give Phil a baby when he's an alcoholic and multiple time crime offender along with Ben the murderer living under the same roof? re: Jay/Ben ... really? I'm sick of Sharon. I'm ready for her ass to croak now.

Do you think that the Jay/Billy and Shirley/Tina/Sylvie scenes just red herrings or do you think they are gonna be involved in the crash today too? I hope what you said about Keegan isn't true. Denise giving up her child is one of the most mature, honest things a soap character has done in a long time on this show. I hate how the character is getting beat down over it.

Doesn't it also play up to his obsession with the Apprentice/Celeb Apprentice too? People battling it out while working for him.

OMG. Cathy is a psycho broad! Is she about to jump? John is such a rat bastard. Does anyone find out his shenanigans with Cathy soon enough too?

This stunt was rather underwhelming. All I know is that Denise better not be f-cking dead!

This article discusses the potential job losses by state once the ACA is repealed. Am I reading this right or has anyone noticed that the states that would be greatly affected the most (minus NY and California) are states that Trump won? Georgia (my state), North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, Michigan, Florida are gonna suffer the most.

Nene speaks on her relationship w/ Phelony Parks:

Exactly! But again, when Sheree is messy, it is cute.

Did y'all see WWHL with Nene? Nene shared that she is close with Kenya, Sheree, Cynthia, and shockingly Kandi from the cast. She is no longer close to Phaedra or Porsha. She took shots at them. Here's what she said:

Sneak peek of next week: Cynthia was on point when she referred to Sheree as Ms. WikiLeaks. Once again, another person has verified that Ms. Parks is known for giving dome. Sheree is messy but it OK. Kenya does it and it is bad and she should burned at the stake for it.

Damn. He ain't been in office a good 24 hours and he's already aged ten years. It's gradually coming to me that Trump really isn't gonna last long in this position and won't be b/c he'll be impeached. I think it'll be his health and sanity that do him in. The hatred from majority of America is gonna weigh heavily on him, and I think his health and gonna suffer at the hands of it. This man strives to be beloved and he's more hated than ever. Doesn't help that his own voters are waking up to his sh*t and are turning on him now too. These first 100 days are gonna drive him mad. He might present the evidence Russia on him his damn self to get out of office.

So asking Porsha if she's going to anger management is life or death? And let's not forget that Sheree has a history of getting gutter and bringing up unnecessary sh*t on people too. Nene's son for instance. Or bringing up Kenya's mom not wanting her. Sheree goes in the gutter too. All these women do. Sorry, but I don't pity Matt AT ALL. He's a grown ass man that keeps coming back to Kenya. If she angers him so much, walk away. Kenya ain't instructing him to punch out windows and sh-t. Same with her & Porsha. She ain't pushing Porsha to get physical. No one has power over you unless you allow it. Weak minded b*tches allow stuff like that to occur, and that is what Matt & Porsha are ... weak minded! These folks better learn to disengage like a normal person. I'd pay Kenya dust. Now looking at next week, look is stirring the pot yet again ... SHEREE.

Oh please. It was obvious this was production pushed b/c THEY had concerns. That's why Kenya brought it up. I find it odd that people are OK with the sh-t stirring when Sheree does it, but when Kenya does it, it is an issue. This comes with the territory.

That's fine, but Gamble does stay in some sh-t ... like always. If I were her, I wouldn't even care b/c Melbourne is a hit. Sydney is gonna have to do well to even get to Melbourne's status.

@Wales2004, ignore the troll. It just wants a reaction by posting that bogus Michael Moore story.

Folks are so damn hardheaded. All most people had to do was watch it on a livestream where he wouldn't get a ratings count. Oh well. At least he's still second to Obama. That'll bother him enough.

This makes me very happy. I've been watching the Women's March, and I am LOVING it. I wish I could be out there right now.

Mariah's title is just a vanity title much like Shaunie's is on BBW or LVP's on PumpRules. Just a title that lines their pockets with a bit more money. She has no pull or a lot of the women would be gone. Mariah hinted (recently) the only women she'd keep were Toya, Heavenly, Lisa, & Genise. Darren does bury himself, but I felt he should've just flat out told Lisa he isn't coming b/c he doesn't wanna be around the likes of Heavenly or Toya. That alone would've provided him with enough of an excuse to not have to attend.

I saw how disappointed Kim was when Donna didn't react the way she wanted. Kim needs to build a bridge and get over it. Again, Denise should see Kim disowning her as a blessing. I would. I just can't with Mick/Whitney. Just make them screw already so we can move on. It is obvious it is gonna occur. I agree that this show has hostility towards female characters. It is so annoying. Luke (I think that's his name) taunting Louise has me looking like. It wasn't lost on me either that he was a Black boy taunting a White girl. Seeing as I am usually one that begs for diverse characters to be more than 'the friend' or 'the talk-to,' I am finding my views slightly bending when it comes to this story. With the climate of race being super hot as of late, I am nervous when it comes to this arc. I hate that a Black boy has to be the sacrificial lamb in a story attempt to make the audience pity Louise, which I don't. Jack beating Danny was ludicrous. I hate how this show makes young, virile men get beat up by these old goats on the regular. Ain't no way a man of Danny's age would just stand there and take Jack beating on him.

Don't get me started on that Adam/Aidan/Maria sh-t story again. I don't mind Adam, but they need to play up what he is good at--being eye candy. He is not convincing at being the bad boy. He's just horrid. I agree that Hillman's story was a gradual buildup much like Alan Bradley's story. Like you said, they couldn't do the same with Pat as Anna stayed screaming his dirty past for the longest. I feel like the entire cast has been stupefied so this story can work. I hate Andy had to be a casualty and Steph by default. Steph & Andy was one of the few pairings I enjoyed the last few years of this show, and seeing them end this way saddens me. I at least wanted them to run off into the sunset together. Didn't help either that they made poor Luke inadvertently cause the death of Andy by spilling their plans to flee to Portugal.

Really, Corrie? Really? Are they really telling a poor man's version of Richard Hillman with Pat Phelan? It all makes sense now. Both men latched themselves onto single, needy women (Gail, Eileen). Both scammed people out of money. I guess Anna is the Audrey in this story as she suspects him and remains hysterical over his presence. So I guess him killing Andy with the laptop was the equivalent of Richard killing Maxine with the spanner? I like Kate Oates but she needs to do better. What's next? He plans on driving all the Grishams into a lake where he drowns? I also hate that poor Steph didn't get a happy ending. Her exit was so damn lackluster and underwhelming. I know as a writer that there is no such thing as an original story (as they've all been done), but c'mon now! If they were gonna do this, they could've at least copied it a bit better. The Michelle/Steve miscarriage is the ONLY good story at the moment. This show needs to get it together.
