NothinButAttitude

Well Lizzie stated that she chose to drop to friend status. She was offered full housewife status, but it asked for too much. I think she wants to refocus on her bikini line instead of fighting and blogging with b-tches. Plus, she could always be like Luann and become extremely popular on her 'guest star' star status that she is bumped back up s11.

Do you think that earthier characters could make it in today's soaps? Or do you think those types of characters are dead/a thing of the past?

I know that many critics have said that the Sopranos was the death of saccharine to the general TV viewing audience as they preferred gray characters, but do you think the late 80s was the shift from characters like Clarice for characters like Vicky?

I thought that was low how she brought up Kandi's brother. Now if Kandi would've gotten gutter with Nene, she would've been in the right. She didn't even need to take the dig at Kenya either as she broke down over the same issue. Nene is just a mess and I can't understand why she's getting so much sympathy. I thought last night made her look insufferable and questionable. As I said earlier, Nene got away with murder, BUT she learned that her mess and antics will no longer be acceptable because these women will pounce on her ass yet again if necessary.

I saw Melbourne and these women are nutty. I'm glad that Jackie and Gina somewhat made up off the show and they didn't really tear into each other. Watching those two go at it can be draining. Lydia coming for Gamble was pathetic. Someone is thirsty and hungry for camera time. I wish Gina would've jumped in and chin-checked her but I guess Gina had her on mute; she was practically irrelevant to her at this stage. I didn't feel bad about Gina coming for Chyka as what she said had some truth in it. There's nothing wrong about Chyka being neutral in a real life situation but a situation like this ... yeah. I get what Gina was saying. Chyka can't be 'loyal' to everyone in this situation. She has to choose a side or totally not be involved [a la Kandi], and she does not do that. Chyka has the tendency to waffle and straddle depending on who she is around. Pettifleur getting called out on her sh-t was too funny. IMO, she [along with Lydia] don't need to come back next season. She's a joke and everyone saw it at the end of part one. They were practically laughing at her b/c she's such a moron and a phony. And to think I thought I would've like Pettifleur.... Overall, it was lighthearted compared to Atlanta and BH's reunions. It's petty stuff that I can see all the women get over. Even Gamble and Janet's spat, which at this point should be dead and buried.

Ooo. I gotta watch Melbourne's reunion. Is it a three part reunion? I don't think I can endure another one of those after tonight's reunion of RHOA. RHOA: Tonight's 90 minutes was draining. Like seriously. I have to commend Kenya & Cynthia for coming to Nene's aid after all the mess she has done to them. I wouldn't've been so gracious. As I said in an earlier post, I would've been like Kandi and Claudia [more like Kandi, who didn't give a f-ck at all] and let Nene drown in her pity and tears. The last part showed how Kenya, Claudia, and Cynthia are so forgiving. Especially Cynthia. Poor woman was practically holding Nene up. Even though people are calling them fake and phonies on Twitter, I didn't get that. I saw a bunch of women that were genuinely concerned for their co-star. I still feel like Nene got away with murder tonight, but I think she caught the hint that she can no longer bulldoze over these women anymore. She's going to have to find a new tactic when addressing these women--like having an adult conversation for once. I really didn't care for Altima and CoinStar shaped heffa b/c they were just irrelevant to me. I did enjoy Kandi calling out Thotsha about her lying how the therapy session went. If you're going to tell it then tell it like it is. Oh and Porsha is such a dummy. She didn't even realize that her good buddy was throwing harsh shade at her [re: the stripper joke]. Sometimes, I believe that Porsha chooses to ignore shade from Nene b/c she knows she needs her. I'm in the minority as I feel like the six main cast members all need to return next season. Porsha doesn't. She's given all she can give at this point. If anything, ATL needs two new housewives to shake it up a la NYC. RHOC: I see they already have started releasing promos for the upcoming season and I don't like that Lizzie has been downgraded to friend of the housewives. I can also see that everyone is coming for Vicki this season in the promo.

I haven't watched in awhile but the day I did watch, I wasn't impressed with that they were giving Martin. Part of me wishes they would've just left him offscreen. And I am over Stacey and her slutty perils. I just felt that's all she did her original run. So her being opposite anyone who is in a relationship just makes me gag. Are they actually doing anything with Lee and Whitney as of late? I feel like that pairing is going to flop like all of Whit's previous ones. Whitney just needs to go.

Do they have any other story for Stacey [or any Slater woman] instead of the usual affair/mistress story? These stories usually end bad and it undoes all the character progression the character previously had. I was never big on Stacey returning as I felt that character contributed all that she could her first run. Good to see Charlie doing good. I loved him on EE. IMO, Bradley was the last decent young male to be on this show in years. All the others have been flops since.

Don't forget Ryan too. She seems to forget about him too. Jill is such a liar. She kills me how she has selective memory when it comes to her many duds over long career. She should just own and maybe we fans would stop tossing the sh-t in her face.

She is. She was EP at the time. Their's YT footage to support it. I wish her ugly ass had Twitter, so I could send the clips to her.

I love Sandy Ferguson too, but when I started watching, my Amanda was Christine Tucci. I've come across a lot of people that didn't like her Amanda but I enjoyed her. While Sandy's Amanda always seemed the total opposite of Rachel, Christine's Amanda was a spitting image of her mother. I think that both women were the best of both worlds. I love Amanda because she could be righteous at times but she was flawed too. Much like Rachel.

*sighs* My Diane Parish deserves so much better than the drivel she is getting. I feel like she and Sharon Case never catch a break and never get applauded when they turn sh-t stories into sugar.

So Denise is still miserable? I haven't watched EE in awhile. I practically gave it up again after the anniversary. And they seriously need to do something with Fatboy or get rid of him. Same with Tamwar. Are any of the younger characters driving story at this point? All I see on recaps of the show is the usual: Max boinking someone new, the Carters newest peril, and Bobby's crimes being covered up.

Why are they tying my poor bae [Ross] down with that hot ass mess, Debbie. Ugh. So hate her.

Exactly. Truces with Nene are short-term. Only way Kenya or Cynthia would remain on Nene's good side is if they left the show a la Kim. And even then it is not guaranteed; she could still hate on them like she does Sheree. Nene is fickle as f-ck. She has to be a pain to work and be around. Just draining. I seriously hope this breakdown causes her to revert back to the Nene we loved--season one Nene.

And Nene will still act like a twat towards her and Cynthia next season--the first two to jump up and the main ones to console her. I would've been like Claudia and Kandi. Nene would've had to drown in her tears. Had it been someone else, she would've not reciprocated the gesture and even you know that....

Dull ass Kristen.

Heather is such a sh-t stirrer. Was it necessary for her to go and tell Kristen what occurred between she and Bethenny? I hope Bethenny chews into her ass when the opportunity presents itself. I've never cared for this b-tch and tonight solidified it. I'll ask this till the end of time--why is Kristen still on the show? Dorinda brings more to the table than she has in two seasons. Carole is such a snake. I knew that old trick wasn't as innocent as she plays up. I'm glad Luann called her out about Carole knowing Adam beforehand and her going out with Adam, Luann, and Luann's niece. The worst kind of a friend--the one that'll play it up but be preying on your man secretly. And Sonja needs to see a therapist. She is too crazy.

Such a good episode of Another World. This episode exemplified why I loved the citizens of Bay City so much. Though Ryan could be aggravating at times, I do love that he was always consistent in being a man of honor. The exchange between Donna and Iris was hilarious. Their rivalry is something that the show should've played up for years to come. They were like the slightly older version of Vicky and Paulina. I didn't care for Amanda and Sam's scenes as I don't care for Sam regardless the actor. Sam comes off as a d-ck. I don't see what Olivia and Amanda saw in him. I did like the exchange between Amanda and Olivia though. Olivia did sum up who Amanda was at the time--a woman who could never settle on one man loving her. Was that Dennis who Olivia had that exchange with? You could see the build up between Vicky/Grant in the episode, and I loved how Donna was apprehensive when she saw them getting close. I prefer seeing Grant like this--more humanized instead of the mess he'd come post-Ryan's death. I hate that they made him into a mustache twirling baby version of Stefano from DAYS. Jake and Paulina were magical together. So sad that in later years, Jake would be paired with Vicky, which I hated, and Paulina would be stuck with chauvinistic pig, Joe Carlino.

Thanks for posting the anniversary video. Just shows how this show should still be on the air.

I love you boo, but I am going to need for you to open them eyes. I'm buying you some glasses. *shakes head in agreement*

She was totally insufferable tonight. How she kept mentioning she is over asking certain questions annoyed me. So why do WWHL if you don't wanna answer the questions?! But Andy and the other execs at Bravo have only themselves to blame. They created a monster. Instead of putting their eggs in other baskets, they invested in all in one, and Nene knows this. Nene knows that she is Bravo's cash cow, hence her attitude. They created a monster and now the monster has developed a mind of its own and is lashing out. What Nene fails to see is that she can easily be replaced. They've somewhat already done so with the likes of Kenya & Claudia, who are less demanding, more refined, and a helluva lot cheaper. Reality TV divas are a dime a dozen. Nene better cool it before she finds herself exiled. The rungs on the ladder to success are not sturdy. They always have a way of snapping and sending your ass back to rock bottom. She said that entire segment had nothing to do with her so she remained quiet, which was the smart thing to do. I think she actually has been taking fan feedback when it comes to her jumping into situations that don't concern her. Oh stop. Nene was being a class A bitch. Even her hardcore stans were calling her out about it via Twitter.

She flirted with him. It was the running joke of seasons 3 & 4. Her flirting may not have been as harsh as Kenya's but a sin is a sin. And Greg can't talk. He'll get into the drama if push comes to shove too. Don't believe that farce. I have no issue with Peter expressing his opinions. It's not like the women don't ask for it. And Phelony and real don't go in the same sentence. You showed that in your post above when you highlighted her not even coming clean about the slightest lies. I do too. Yeah, she came a little short with Phaedra, but her digs cut Phaedra deep. Especially when she brought up inability to win cases--a dig at her lawyer work and her recent loss to Angela Stanton in court. That f-cked Phaedra's head up.

What?! You actually came for Phelony!! I need to write this down and take a pic. This might not ever happen again. But I do love how Cynthia went toe to toe with Phaedra. Phaedra always tries to lord her 'career' over the other women's heads but it failed tonight when Cynthia told her to win a case. When Phaedra brought up Cynthia's weight, I burst into laughter. Cynthia is a twig compared to her. I'm glad that Cynthia told her that she makes money. Furthermore, Phaedra does not need to bring up people's court cases. Isn't her huzzzband in jail? Where is Angela Stanton? I am also glad that Kenya reminded Nene that she flirted with Peter. She did it. Own it.

Aww my two faves--Magali and Ampika! I saw them post pics on Twitter last night too. I can't wait for season two of Cheshire. I miss them.
