Lol thanks for bumping Cheap!! Loved this show!!

I LOVED Leilene! I would've rather seen her win over Saaphyri.

Exactly why I loved Bootz!

Girl should've been brought on as a season regular from the start! I was soo disappointed she only got a little guest spot. Big mistake!

Yeah you're probably right. But if they ever did a revamped season again I'd want Mo'Nique back as host and I'd like to see New York, Deelishis, Bootz, Buckeey, Pumkin, Hottie, Buckwild, Like Dat, Somethin, Nibblz, and Rain as contestants. :)

The first season of Charm School was EPIC drama. Loved every single second of it. I'm surprised I didn't post more about here when it originally aired.

"The picture incident" was one of THE most engrossing storylines I've ever seen on a reality show. The best episode of all of the Flavorverse for me was the ep when it was Mo's birthday, and all of the picture incident drama came out. Everybody was crying, the food was gross, everybody had on party hats, lmao.

Remember when Schatar gave Mo'Nique an apple from her bra? And Mo'Nique says "Nah...nah...nah what am I gon do with a titty apple?" LMAO!!

I wish they'd do with the Flavorverse like they're doing with the Real Housewives franchise and syndicate them to local stations. Just air each season of each show back-to-back.

Not getting to knock Bootz was one of Flav's biggest regrets.

Laylene was a wreck.

Bootz is evil. And it is so bizarre how they are all just lying in bed watching or trying to sleep.

The picture incident began after Schatar stole the dresses and hid them under the sink or somewhere (I can't even remember whose stuff it was...I think Crystal/Serious). She lied about it, everybody found out, they forgave her, and that was it. Well, Larissa and Shay, the delicious bitch/hoes they were, wanted to get Schatar kicked out of the house, so they stole Leilene's pictures of her mother and children and hid them under Schatar's bed. They knew that no one would consider Schatar's innocence because she was already a known thief. Mo'Nique sent Schatar home (in lieu of a regular elimination -- because it was a team elimination, Schatar's partner Darra was eliminated too), but people started getting suspicious. Schatar had denied taking the pictures up until the end, and everyone started to realize that if she really did take them, she probably would have owned up to it, but she never did. Saaphyri and some of the others started suspecting Larissa and Shay stole the pictures, and the whole thing blew up during preparations for Mo's birthday dinner. IIRC, Shay ended up coming clean about the whole thing to Mo, and then she went to Larissa and urged her to admit her part in it, too, so that maybe Mo would just forgive them for it. Larissa wasn't about to roll like that, though, so she started lying and trying to blame the entire thing on Shay, but Mo'Nique saw right through her and sent her home.

My memory on the whole thing is raw, but good god, that was some good sh!t. I might see if I can hunt those two episodes down somewhere, if not the whole season. For a while, I had a pipe dream of turning the whole thing into a Broadway musical.

As hilarious as Larissa was, IMO, SHAY was he MVP during the picture incident mess. "Nah everybody's runnin' 'round like Investor Gadget." LMAO

YES! Now I remember (particularly the way Saaphyri would say, "You took doze fukkin pikcherz!"), thanks! Good stuff. Larissa and her mom were just awful I thought, she was obviously a very hurt, angry girl and ma was enabling.

Buckwild was such a MESS through the whole thing. Larissa was trying to get everybody off her back, so she started planting the notion that Shay took the pictures, and so they sent Becky to tell Shay, and she goes up on her all weak, "So...um...word on the street is.......that...um....you took the picture..." "Oh, really?" "Yeah...uh....that's what...the word is....I was told. By....the people." "Oh. Okay. Larissa! What the hell is she talking about?!"

GOLD, I tell you. Comic. GOLD.

"Crater face ass bitch. Yes, CRATER FACE. Bitch, you got a crater face!"

I love how dismissive pretty much everybody was of Schatar :lol: "This goofy ass mother f!cker that's PLAYIN yall's ass! She don't give a f!ck about yall! And you look ugly in the dress, bitch."

    • Bill is about to fall out, lol. Why would Hayley even feel like she had to prove that she was pregnant to Dani? Maybe she likes this non-stop roundabout of drama or perhaps she's triggered because Dani actually was on to something. Anita really was an opportunist and now it's caught up to her. 
    • She was a natural going all the way back to her audition reel.    It's a shame that Rauch and co really amped up the more OTT aspects of Tina's character in the 2nd half of the 80s because Evans proved she could play understated and vunerable without the theatrics. It's also why she was able to slip into playing a recast Patty Williams on Y & R a few short weeks before the climax of the story with Jack Abbott.  She had natural instincts, and knew when the dial it back and when to let loose.  
    • Wow, this was some amazing acting and amazing writing.  And who came up with the idea that Anita would have memorized the letter?  That person deserves an Emmy!  I love it when soap operas do very serious storylines.  So much in the last 40 years on soaps has been done for laughs or as camp.  Its good to see BTG is not afraid to hit the serious notes.  We all knew Anita had a secret, but I never expected this kind of tragedy was behind it.  
    • Finally... the show is giving TT some material to play and I like that Anita isn't coming off as so innocent.   Although I do think so far that the story is mirroring the Supremes just a bit too much with Tracy as Mary, Sharon as Florence, Anita as Diana, and Dante (name?) as Berry.  Andre... run far away from Dani because she isn't over Bill and you're far too good to settle for being second choice.  The fact that I've read comments on other forums stating that Dani just needs the love of a good man makes me think a double standard is at play here.   If the shoe was on the other foot, viewers would be telling Dani not to settle for being second best and to find someone who would put her first.... but since the person in that position is a man, that doesn't apply.   Misandry at it's best. That said, the twist of Naomi and Hayley both witnessing Bill's latest health flare up and being on the same side was nice.   I doubt this will repair their friendship... but it would be nice if the two learned to co-exist on a civil level.   The Dani/Hayley scene was not needed and was the writers attempt to prop Dani.  MVJ certainly  learned about character propping from the Bell soaps. And I guess that Andre/Derek/Ashley is still a thing... or it was at the time this episode was being filmed.  From what I understand.. both Derek and Ashley were one of the characters featured in MVJ's story bible and I'd be curious one day to see what the write ups for both characters were in the intial character pitches (we know that Vanessa was originally named Stacy and was supposed to be AA and more level headed.... so I wonder if perhaps Derek and Ashley had a different write up/vision that changed during casting).   In the 2nd episode of the series, it was established aht Leslie knew Ashley.  She was with Jan and Eva wishing Ashley good luck on her first day nursing.. and all were chummy.
    • Yep, another good episode with a powerful and emotional ending!   I'm really enjoying learning more about Anita's storyline, as they make small reveals each episode. It's also nice not being spoiled about these reveals! It was nice seeing Leslie interact with Derek/Ashley - keep mixing these characters and building a community, it's great. I had to LOL at Derek and Ashley studying the menu though, these people eat at Orphey Gene's every day, surely they have the menu memorized by now haha. Maybe these girls will finally make Bill figure out his problem.
    • There are couple of thoughts I would like to share.  I haven't been around for a while, so it's possible that other people have already addressed these matters. 1. The other day, Michael referred to Scout as his children's 2nd cousin.  That is not right.  Drew and AJ were half-brothers.  That means that AJ's son, Michael, and Drew's daughter, Scout, are half 1st cousins.  That, in turn, means that Scout is half 1st cousins, once removed to Wiley and Amelia.   2. I wonder if the show will have Monica and Lesley die on the same day, perhaps a few hours apart.  That would be an interesting end for their characters.  
    • I tend to lean into Nigel Campbell's work and lately, Ryan Quan, as well.
    • Outside of their headwriters, GH and BTG only credit the breakdown Writer and scriptwriter for each episode. Days credits their whole team daily with their breakdown writer listed after Ryan Quan. Their scriptwriter is the last writer listed. Hope Rena Sofer ain't gone for good
    • Thank you, that makes sense.  I do pay attention to the list when I watch.  I seem to like episodes where Charlotte Gibson is on the list.
