Oh, I *heart* Ana Navarro! This is great news as I thought she was only doing the Friday gigs or filling in for another co-host. I didn't know much about her until I heard her screaming the 'P' word on CNN:

House of the Dragon: S01E03

Well, with Shelia's spiffy new face mask, Lauren and Shelia can finally be twinsies! It's sort of like plastic surgery ... with a twist!

They should've put Shelia in a fat suit. That would've been so awesome!

Ah! Now I'm starting to understand this Hope/Douglas/Thomas mumbo jumbo now that I'm watching earlier B&B seasons. This show flies so quickly when you watch them back to back, lol!

I used to like Jan back in the day as she was so full of sweet spirit. Now, I don't pay attention to her. Sure, I listen to her at times, but for the most part, I don't pay that girl no mind. She's a joke. If anything, she sould be grateful to not be living in that Hobby Lobby shack that Belle and Shawn have the audacity to call a home.

I *heart* watching interviews like this. Shirley MacLaine's is pretty much to the point and she doesn't mince words either. Thanks for sharing that with us. 😀

So, it is him? Or, is he trying to talk to Sonny to see if he knew what happened? Oh. He's determined to prove his innocence. Maybe he's got a multiple personality disorder or something. Haha!

1. I thought Leo spent the night because he went through the French doors in the back while talking to a picture frame of Chad and Abigail. He woke up the next morning as Thomas discovered Leo (pretending the be the tooth fairy). Thomas served him steak-n-eggs that Harold made (that was intended for someone else (I think it was Belle) in the cellar. 2. From what I recall, she called Ava and asked her for that favor Ava mentioned to her a while back when Gwyneth (Gwen) was in the notorious interrogation room. How long it actually takes to get from Statesville prison to the DiMera mansion has not been tempted (yet) on Google Maps. How Gwyneth (Gwen) knew the weather forecast or Sarah's wardrobe for rainy weather is beyond me as H&M stores close at 9:00 p.m. As far as reliable transportation, how Gwen is able to get to the local mall is quite questionable. When Gwen left the DiMera mansion, the only thing Abigail threw at her was that face mask and told Gwen that she had ONE HOUR to get her ass back to prison. So, I guess it takes an hour to get from Statesville to the DiMera mansion if anyone in Salem would like to ask Siri or Google. Going back to Gwen, she was nowhere near that gaudy jewelry box of Abigail's. She simply picked up the face mask and left the DiMera mansion. 3. Probably not. They don't seem to care. 4. Divorces are hard. Unless he's well-endowed, I don't understand this character at all unless she needs Clyde as a way to "coat" her feelings of despair, gendered ego, and/or rejection. 5. For a cheeseburger? No. This storyline doesn't center around Belle. If anything, it was probably serving to Jan's advantage as Belle was a guest in EJ's home having sex with him all the time like a mangy mutt in heat. 6. Honestly? I don't see how. Gabi and Li were not shown at all that week before Abigail's murder or the week before that. Plus, the only time we did see them was Wednesday, June 15th (S57E178). Li was on the phone with his assistant Lia and told her that she did good work on the press release (which I think was the announcement of Abigail's murder) and to send it out as soon as possible. Gabi wakes up and before Li has the chance to tell Gabi that Abigail is dead, Gabi receives a notification on her cell phone and is in total disbelief. Li told Gabi that the person who told him about Abigail's murder was EJ. Gabi still doesn't want to believe it and Li confirms that he double-checked with the Salem P.D. and the police confirmed that Abigail was dead. Even after all of that, Gabi still doesn't want to believe it and she mentions something about Andre and his evil machinations, etc. The next thing you know, we don't see them until Beyond Salem in mid-July. Three weeks/close to a month later, Li is talking to Dr. Rolf about how he likes to check-in to all the DiMera Enterprises' assets. The timing to all of this is weird because Dr. Rolf was still in prison. Who takes care of a four-year comatose patient without the patient getting bed sores? Seriously. What I do find weird is that the way Li first spoke about his father to Gabi on June 15th as Li portrays him in a different light (Yin and yang type). But, when we saw Li's father several days ago, he was a douchebag. I mean, yeah I get it, Li and Gabi shouldn't be having sex in the office. Then again, where else can they go? It's either the office or the hotel suite. Or, another hotel suite in Hong Kong. Unless Abigail found a comatose Stefan in one of the secret labs while she was looking for the tooth fairy (while Li was lurking somewhere), I still can't see Li being the killer because Jake was still alive before Abigail's death. Frankly, finding out the news that a comatose Stefan has been hooked up to breathing tubes would be more important to a journalist than ovulating.

As much as this murder mystery stinks to high heaven, I'm still trying to post "facts" from watching what I've re-watched (as nauseating as it was) - not alternative facts, okay? Let's not get this twisted. Hahaha! 😆 No, but Leo Stark squawked about how he's being framed or set up because of the $2 steak knife. There are TWO $2 steak knives: Steak Knife #1: Used by the Leo Stark (a.k.a. the "Tooth Fairy" ) for his steak-n-eggs. Claims he left the knife beside Abigail's gaudy jewelry box. Steak Knife #2: Used by Lucas when his drunk ass was attempting to cut a lemon. Maybe I need to re-watch the Lucas' hypnosis under MarDevil. I know that he claims that he saw "Sarah" coming down the stairs and dropped something. The police suspect that's the murder weapon, but then again (and this is where I perhaps need to re-watch again), there was no mentioning that the knife used at the bar was found. Moreover, no mentioning that the blood found on Steak Knife #2 matched Lucas' blood type. So, two steak knives have been running around the town of Salem until two days ago when Leo found Sonny stabbed in the back (super-spooky and frightening Halloween accessories courtesy of Party City). I don't believe it's Craig because Leo isn't worth framing a murder for and Nancy's a big girl. Unless Lucas was that inebriated and thinks he saw some skinny ass white girl go down those stairs, I'm not buying it. If that stupid face mask can also change one's genitalia or body mass index (BMI), then this is beyond the epitome of stupid. Trust me, I've got a ton of questions, but I don't feel like writing a novel unless someone wants to ask me questions. 😄

LMAO! I'm such a dorkus. I cannot believe I went to Season 21 of B&B and I was so puzzled! Not because the video quality is 480p, but because I saw Phoebe, Stephanie, and Mr. and Mrs. Logan. Then, I got REALLY confused when Katie was marrying Bill. Okay, I'm on Season 33. Hopefully, it's the right season. Looking at the thumbnails for each episode and the actor who plays Thomas is somewhat clean shaven, I think I'm getting there.

Crap-ola. I looked under the subforum for Prime Video and could not find it. From the link you gave, I've posted in that thread several weeks ago, but I believe it was posted in the general Primetime Shows forum (not the actual Netflix | Apple TV+ | Amazon Prime subforum). If it needs to be merged, then that's fine of course.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Epic drama set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth. Studio: New Line Cinema Genre: Adventure, Fantasy, Action, Drama, Sci-Fi & Fantasy S01E01

I watched today's episode (9/2) and watched the video clip above. I'm lost, lol! Did Finn think he saw Shelia or was there an all-you-can-eat buffet behind him? I like that wig color on Shelia. It makes me think of Jinkx Monsoon. ETA: Please do tell me about the Hope doll. I wasn't watching B&B around that time. I can watch on Paramount + though (I think). Which season? S21?

Steve heads over to the electrical box and opens it. Steve: "So many wires to cut! I don't know which color to cut! That bastard. He said he gave us everything we needed to know!" John (to Kayla): "Did he say anything at all that referenced colors? ANYTHING about colors!" Kayla: "He called me blue eyes! He has never done that!" John (to Steve): "Try it!" Steve: "Okay, that works for me!" (attempt at cutting the blue wire fails) Roman: "22 seconds." Kate: "Is there a white wire? Because he called you guys white knights!" Steve: "White! Got it! Oh no." (attempt at cutting the white wire fails) Roman: "14 seconds!" MarDevil: "What about .. what about black for John Black?" Steve: "Black." Roman: "6 seconds!" John: "Come on, man. Ding! Ding! Ding!

This Orpheus storyline is so supenseful. I was holding on to dear life hoping ... just hoping that John could be able to open that 4-Digit combination waterproof portable key storage lockbox.

Awww, I love that Rachel as she's cute as a little button and so sweet. She is destined to do great things. 🥰

LOL! The paints that Brooke used on Taylor seemed very color coordinated with each other. The purple paint that Taylor used on Brooke's blouse accentuated very well with the purple Brooke was already wearing. You can kind of find something like that available at Sears.

Today's episode felt like I watched yesterday's episode and the day before that. Same lines I've heard before except the silly paint fight.

Well, it centers around core families. I seriously doubt they would do a commercial that centers around antagonists.

They're all a bunch of dumbasses. I was laughing when Deacon rushed Hope out of his house because you know damn well that Hope's going to be flappin' that mouth of hers. Moreover, you know once Hope starts flappin' that mouth of hers to her mom, then Brooke's going to be all up in both Hope and Deacon's business looking for skid marks.

What is this WyNoT stuff? I don't get it.

House of the Dragon: S01E02

The weapon looks like my stainless-steel tweezers, lol! I think it's still that $2 steak knife. Both knives (the knife used at the Dimera bar and the knife that Leo used for his steak-n-eggs) both had a black handle. Don't get me wrong, the storyline is terrible as Abigail's death just kind of popped out of nowhere. Usually, murder mysteries give motive, or they give you weeks of build-up for a motive to kill someone. Kate blabbing her mouth to Lucas that Abigail knew that he kidnapped Sami wasn't a good enough reason to kill Abigail. Moreover, family is family. Sit down and talk about it. As I mentioned before when Abigail deliberately broke that hideous mug in front of Gwen's face, she did it out of pure spiteness. But, that's a childish reason to just murder someone. No, I would have taken the largest ceramic chard and jabbed Abigail's eye out with it. Why? Because Abigail was getting too big for her britches, that's why. Sassin' that damn mouth of hers. Last but not least, what was the point in Leo's hit-list? He didn't do squat. All talk and no action in my opinion. Rookie.

Ah! That's right! I do remember the mainstream media (MSM) mentioning 13 justices. How many federal judges did Trump appoint under his 4-year term? During his 4-years, it seems to me that it was working in Mitch McConnell and the GOP's favor. Sure, the GOP wants as many seats in the legislative branch, but strategizing the justices they want in the judicial branch is something that they've been trying to work on for quite sometime. Indeed, it is a crooked court. There's no "balance" in it if that makes sense.
