The Madonna Thread
I don't think this exists, so there you go. Her brand new single/video was just released: I wasn't sure, but it does stick with you. Sounds very radio friendly. Also, loving the album cover.

Pat's last scene at the Vic still makes me cry. Her goodbye episode was very touching.

Revenge: Discussion Thread
Victoria's lie that David raped her was epic. It provided a great reason for Emily to return to her revenge and might be useful for the divorce fight. Oh, Daniel... the guy's hot but he's not a great actor. Bless him. The proposal scene was very iconic; I loved it. And Conrad calling Victoria a "pathetic, washed up bitch" (or something like that) was hilarious.

Yes, the last good one they did was with Diane and Victor. And I seem to recall Victor and Nikki's, under Hack Bitch from Hell LML, took forever and then, suddenly, was resolved within two episodes. BTW, random thought, but I've been wondering if ABC will be tempted to move REVENGE to Sundays once HOUSEWIVES is over. It seems like a good spot for soaps but I don't know if they want to move a show that actually found its audience and not have something for Wednesday night, which they have been struggling with.

I, for one, didn't see the Charlotte twist coming. I guess it's not hard to figure out if you purposefully sit down and think about it, though. Emily gave Amanda her diary (or notebook) so that Amanda could fake the persona adequately, did she not? So, in that light, we don't really need countless scenes of Amanda almost being caught in the lie. And, if I remember correctly, she has told numerous people that she doesn't remember much from her childhood and doesn't like to talk about it, which I guess settles it. Although, I agree, Jack/Amanda are mostly a plot point and I am fine with that. It's a great point. Meanwhile, Daniel continues to be one of the hottest McHotties ever. Just Wow. The fight for Conrad and Victoria's divorce is incredibly juicy. This has the prospect of becoming a huge, wonderfully soapy story. I hope it's drawn out and nasty as hell.

Tyler himself basically said on the show he isn't bi, just ambitious. He doesn't care if he has to sleep with men or women, he's an equal opportunist lol

I finally caught up! Fortunately, all this ^^ wasn't what it was at all. LOL Nolan has been the perfect ally for Emily all along--two complicated characters in a very complicated relationship which cannot be fully displayed in one episode. It was never sugary sweet and he opposed--or gave her a hard time for--a lot of the things she did, as well as enjoyed a lot of the things she did. He wasn't horrified because she did something bad, he was horrified because he had come to see her as his ally, if not also a friend, and she destroyed something with someone he was (unwittingly) falling for. It was more his heartbreak at what he perceived as a betrayal. Such a great moment! I loved the twist with Ryan Huntley. Have to catch up with this week's episode lol

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
I'm having difficulty with Season 3 of NYC. I was hooked for Seasons 1 and 2 but I'm starting to really not like most of the Housewives. It's just kinda boring... THAT'S LIFE! I loved that show! Especially Debi Mazar.

These casting news are just perfect. Includes SPOILERS, so beware. http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/12/13/revenge-william-devane-edward-grayson-exclusive/ Really pissed at the Knot's typo, though. Sigh.

I fully expect her to clean house--and not undeservedly.

I don't think Ralph/Amanda was a bad idea at all; it was pretty much a given that one or both of them would eventually show up and cause drama. It was just fulfilling of storyline potential. There was a lot to be milked between Mac and Amanda's dynamic, even without Ralph's presence. Of course, one has to wonder how absolutely great it would be if Ash Bash got to play this. As she should have.

More brilliance. I saw most of the twists coming, but that didn't take away from any of the pleasure. Loved that Nolan referenced the Kinsley scale and then they had sex. Nolan was hiding a pretty mean set of abs btw lol. Emily and Daniel are awesomeness together. I'm still hoping he won't end up dead. Declan and Charlotte were a little bit better but they have to do more with them. The one who really took a great turn was Ashley. You can tell there's exciting things ahead for her. Loved what they did with Frank and the real Emily Thorne. There is just so much potential and we are seeing it fulfilled. This is exactly the benefit of long-term planning on soaps; they have a goal and they're working towards it, instead of making [!@#$%^&*] up as they go. Victoria is becoming very sympathetic, without losing any of her bitchy touch. The writers recognize that she can be sympathetic and a horrible bitch at the same time. It's called having many dimensions. As for Tyler being gay: He did make it clear that's not exactly the case. But, hey, he's a gay hustler instead of a straight one Loving that such a pivotal role is given to a "gay" character and that they have made the distinction very clear: The men he has been with have done so in their own accord. Well, except Daniel, but I have a feeling there's a lot more to that story. BUT I will say this: Kinda lame they didn't show the kiss. I thought primetime was beyond that. WTF? No episode till Nov. 16? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!

That's one of the awesome things about MTS as an actress: She is not afraid to play many, many different sides of her character and is comfortable in all of her dimensions. When she turns bitchy, boy does she ever. I really enjoyed Veronica hiding under Nikki and Josh's nose. Everything with the shooting and after was just gold, since it generated MONTHS (if not years) of story. Josh on the other hand...

Yes! The little that they gave us with Emily vs Tyler was great, so I hope there is a full-blown rivalry. I wonder if they'll ever go as far as having Daniel actually have sex with Tyler. It's not strictly necessary for the story but would be, to say the least, shocking. Can't wait to see Tyler get crazier and crazier.
