KR, I don't watch football so that name means nothing to me. Anyway, I THOUGHT you were right, but anyone who watched today's "View" can back me up. Unless the show was playing a prank or it was an inside joke, they showed footage of Bitsy's hubby making a touchdown and yes, much to my surprise, there were black arms and legs. That means he's black. ;)

Like Bitsy would EVER have jungle fever!

I think it went along the lines of, "Bad people get cancer, and you know what happens to bad people who get cancer? They die" or something like that.

Rosie was probably losing her ever long mind.

It speaks to you being a fan of THE ROSIE O'DONNELL SHOW, *NOT* a fan of THE VIEW.

Some of us VIEW fans liked the show the way it was: not every talk show needs to look like a three-ring circus and give out prizes everyday. I still can't believe they fucked up that set so badly.

Rosie's "Queen of Nice" attitude was too much to take seriously as her show continued on. While I would hope we have celebrities out there who are sincere, as time went on, the real !@#$%^&*] in her came out.

I know she does a lot for charity, which is good. But she lacks tact, and doesn't know when to shut up. I think that's what a lot of people can't stand about her.

I'm very aware of her faults and even went through a Rosie-hating period but now I have to admire her for being so far out of the closet. The tone of The View has changed, but after Star and Meredith left, the show seemed awkward and stilted. She's brought new life to it at least for now.

That said, she's not the type of personality I get along with in real life.

I know, Toadstool. And for her to say something like that REALLY says something about how she must have felt about her mother. I mean, I hate to sound morbid but, was he pain over her mother's death a lie? Because it seems to me that someone who's MOTHER died of cancer wouldn't make generalizations like that about people with cancer because obviously, she would IMMEDIATELY think of her mother and realize she would be lumping her mother with that generalization. So it begs the question: did Ro's mo have an affair or something that would make HER a "liar?" Clearly, this was a good example of an outburst that should speak volumes about some pent up anxiety about Rosie's relationship with her mother.

JSF, it could be much simpler than that. Kids sometimes have an irrational tendency to blame the dead parent for abandoning them. When my mom had cancer (she survived it), my sister was angry at her for not getting tested earlier and "leaving us with the mess" if she were to die.

Or it could be even more simple - Rosie thought of the most painful thing she could say and to her it involved cancer.

But I see your point about the lying part and I've wondered what her mother might have lied about too.

    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
