YRBB

Will do! I don't know if I'd go that far lol But I do agree the show improved and became more complex, especially with Lex and Lionel, and Lois has been a wonderful addition so far. Durance and Welling also have incredible chemistry.

I'm halfway through and REALLY enjoying it. The three stones, Lionel's illness and change, the show finding every excuse to get Clark naked and acting like a bad boy (lol), Jensen Ackles, Lois' visits, Lana's tramp stamp (lol). BUT I have to say - this season has also severely exposed Kreuk's inability to act. Not that I was surprised, but she is rather effective as the doe-eyed ingenue... bad girl witch, on the other hand, is WAY beyond her abilities.

The show ended May with a shockingly good week of episodes. The Theo murder mystery (which I do not care that much for) took a backseat to the repercussions of Will's grooming for both Will and Daniel. Maggie climbing up on the scaffolding to comfort Will was very touching. Bless the actor playing Will, he's really not rising up to the challenge of the material, but it was a tearjerker nonetheless. Meanwhile, Rob Mallard as Daniel is giving the performance of a lifetime. Just gorgeous acting - he's really selling every single (often, silly) moment. Idris is intriguing - hot, interesting, and I love his flirtation with Leanne. His intro was blink and you missed it. If you didn't catch the last week of May, you'd be lost And, of course, always a joy to see Rita.

SMALLVILLE Season 4

Oh how fun! Never seen THE ROYALS and, as you know, SNOWPIERCER is on the list (maybe soon....). I remember how disappointing WESTWORLD S03 was at the time. I never got around to Season 4 and now it seems to have disappeared from streaming? And, of course, INDUSTRY will be happening!

What are you watching these days?

I think I'll eventually get to them! Next up is THE BOYS Season 4! Time to finish some shows I have in progress before starting something new. (Although I hear Season 5 was disappointing).

THE EXPANSE Season 6. A fitting, if bittersweet, ending to a great show. I guess I'll just have to read the novels to deal with the sadness and find out how it all ends!

Not that I was expecting a lot, but the April "murder week" was not as exciting as I'd hoped it'd be. Especially considering how much depended on those final scenes between George, Todd, and Theo, I felt they were so sloppily choreographed and shot. The physical action did not seem plausible at all. On the other hand, the Jodie storyline continues to be the biggest highlight. Enjoyable and interesting the entire year so far. And the reveal Sam was hallucinating Will's attack was such a great shock to me. Did not see that coming. That's why those chasing/bullying scenes have looked so janky all this time. Well played, show.

Blessed! I hope she enjoys her 6 months!

SO excited to finally have Madonna and Kylie on a song together. I listened to Love Sensation again after hearing the news and it struck me what a great choice for a Kylie song it would be And the song is still so new it doesn't matter it's a remix.

Yes! She was a purposefully annoying character, and I love her for that!

It's worth the effort tracking them down! I will definitely add THE ARK to the list and check it out.

Something different! Something new! Who knows?! Yes. It's what and how you do it.

Lots of lovely ideas, although two things we must point out: Y&R is NEVER getting rid of the vets - and it's a good thing. The reason it is holding on is because of them, regardless of quality of writing. They're not the problem. HOW they are written is. Also - this notion of Genoa City being a small midwestern city. The real Genoa City is. The TV show Genoa City has long been established as a city with skyscrapers and of a size grander than its real life counterpart (even if sometimes they try to have it both ways). That being said, we need two companies and that's it. lol
