negative. 8 was unnecessary. Kristen needed to be dropped as she added nothing. 7 is the max they should have and even that is too much. There isn't enough time to focus on 8 women and 1-2 will inevitable feel unnecessary and irrelevant. That's what friends are for IA on Manuela. She was the Faye of Melbourne so you know I loved her You know my counterpoint to that is that Thotsha should have been canned...lol. She and her messy friend Shathirsty Girl ... don't get me started on ShamWow. I can't stand that broad.

Well I disagree. Even though Kristen was pointless at times, she did add some drama to last season. With these women's stories decreasing more as time passes, I think 6 ain't enough anymore. Seven to nine should be mandatory on these shows. For instance, Atlanta this season. They might as well have given Marlo and Sheree peaches. Hell, even Tammy with her nutty ass. Plus with Bravo ordering more episodes, they might as well increase the casts for more drama. negative. 8 was unnecessary.

Good for her! I am glad she is back on screen too given how Antony Cotton allegedly treated her on Corrie. I liked Kelly too. I hope her Hollyoaks role pans out to be something long term for her.

8 worked well for NYC last season, so I think that's where they got the idea from. I wouldn't get rid of Gamble b/c she did drive the entire season last year even though her rivalry with Janet was stupid and petty on both parts. I do agree that Lydia should've been dropped. She should've left when Andrea got the boot. Hell, I would've kept Andrea over Lydia. At least she provided drama. But I am pretty sure that Lydia will do whatever she can be the relevant one this season b/c she knows for fact she was irrelevant last season. I am still cracking up over here having a meltdown over having to move to the end of the sofa so Manuela could have a seat. Plus, that's why she picked that fight with Gamble (too) at the reunion. They should've given Manuela Lydia's spot. Despite my dislike for her, at least she provided something last year.

Real Housewives of Melbourne season 3 airs Feb 21st on Arena. There's no word as to whether or not Bravo will air the third season yet.

That's nice of her. Kenya has always wanted to rekindle her friendship with Nene. It was always Nene, who I felt was intimidated that Kenya was trying to take her spotlight, not wanting anything to do with Kenya. ETA: Here's the photo:

That story is the main reason why I don't watch EE consistently anymore. Sad part is that Bobby will walk away with a slap on the wrist when he should be put down like a deranged mutt. I can't say I feel sorry for Sharon either as they made her keep the secret. Betcha she'll open her mouth for now on. I was praying that Bobby would off Jane's lame ass because that would make me comeback for awhile to see her meet a grizzly demise. Overall, this story had ruined the Beale family. Never have a seen the core family on a soap be decimated in a year's time like this family has on EE. Anyone in the loop about Bobby's doing is forever tarnished as a character. Especially Ian.

Damn Procter & Gamble. I hate how these episodes are wasting away b/c there are tons of episodes from the 80s I'd love to see. I hate that it is easier to find episodes from the last decade of ATWT, which are hardly ever taken down, over the older episodes when the material was good. So annoying.

I tend to put him more with David...maybe Ross, but mostly David. Rik Makarem's always been cute but he's just been stunning this time around. The snug blue sweater and tight jeans he wore a few episodes ago - it's just a sin. Oh hell. They can have an orgy (with my boo, Ross, too) and I'll be content. Yes! Rik has been looking so delicious this time around. The things I'd do to him....

And add in my hot, little Nikhil too....

Robert would obliterate Finn, both sexually and psychologically. If it let us see Joe Gill naked I'd take it though. I'd like them to bring back the hooker, Connor, for Finn. I'd pair Aaron with a new man and pair Robert with Carly. Then maybe down the line Robert and Aaron could hook up again. Oh. I'd like to watch that.

I don't care for Robron. They're hot but I think Robert deserves someone better. Aaron can be draining at times with his constant whining and judging. Sometimes I wish they would've put Robert with Finn or some new gay, male character.

My husband is so damn fine and has a great personality.

I wanted to find a nice X-Mas episode I haven't seen & thanks to @DRW50, I did. Who is this Richard character? Was he obsessed with Barbara? Is he some lackey of James coming to get revenge on Babs and Gunnar? Anyways, I found it hilarious when Gunnar came in and socked Richard in the stomach. Talk about over the top acting. Marisa Tomei still looks the same now as she did then. I found it honorable of Frannie to still be cordial to Marcy despite reading that she nearly ruined Bob with rape allegations. I like the Stewart clan but this X-mas episode felt hollow without Nancy and the Hughes being at the center. Lord! This Alice woman is brutal! I was cracking up over here telling that little boy that what he was saying is dumb. I did think it was cute that Tom and Margo helped her find a new job though. It's moments like this that make me miss this show. Was that Annie with Dee with that one scene? Was she talking about Jeff? Was this around the time he was addicted?

But Kandi would never say that to Porsha's face. Queen Kenya and all her gloriousness: I love the energy and candor between her and Garcelle.

She does have her work cut out for her. Especially with all the little rumblings and rumors in the past about drama and egos at Corrie. I hope she cleans house though. Corrie has a lot a deadweight that needs to be dropped. I hope the new EP maintains what Kate built but I get this feeling it all might come crashing down. I get nervous when new EPs (especially those from Hollyoaks) take reigns at one of the 3 main soaps. I feel like HO is a different beast from the other shows but they try fitting the older shows into the HO mold. Like Kirkwood tried doing EE.

Well the new producer needs to take Kate up on her offer. I don't want her exit to be screwed up on. Gosh, I love Kate Oates. You can genuinely feel that she loves this genre. I just hate they moved her from Emmerdale but I do hope she works wonders for Coronation Street.

I hope they go all out in addressing Edna's exit. The character and actress both deserve it.

I just heard about Shirley Stelfox's death. May she RIP.

Kenya told no lies. Pontiac needs help. One time, OK. Numerous time?! You got an issue. I don't think Oldsmobile ain't really gonna change until someone whoops that ass one good time. Then she'll sit down.

Congrats to him! It took him long enough. Now excuse me while I go in a corner and sob over the loss of one of my Emmerdale brother husbands recent nuptials.

I'm wishing they would've chose another color for Potomac other than black. I think the pink that Gizelle is wearing or the orange on the bottom half of Robin's dress should've been the colors they were all dressed in. I want Jill's messy ass back too. She at least have history with the show and will bring the drama.

But what Kandi said could be the same about her too. I just find it jarring that out of all the people to call out, she calls out Kenya. She should be directing that energy to Phaedra, who continues to make a fool out of her. ETA: Official Potomac commercial:
