In this weeks People, there is an update of the Hills. Audrina was with her new boyfriend and Justin Bobby was hanging around. Lauren has a class with Spencer's sister Stephanie and appear to get along which has pissed off Heidi. She was overheard saying that she was. And Lauren had blown off Stephen Coletti that night, so I guess it's true that we will see him on the Hills

I'm watching too, and loving it and all its fakery. If you watch last weeks' episodes on the MTV site, you'll notice that the mirror Heidi goes to pick up from Lauren and Audrina's place in the second episode is already in her apartment in the first episode!

I keep finding myself getting caught up in this like I know them. I dont trust Stephanie one little bit, sure she's nice to Lauren but then she's also been doing a hell of a lot of stirring things up between Spencer/Heidi and now Heidi/Lauren.

I hated Stephanie before and thought she came across as such a psycho but Im liking her now. She seems genuine enough. I hope she isnt going to backstab Lauren

Oh this show definetly does come across fake but the writers are doing a good job. Adding Stephanie to hte mix is definetly spicing things up. And how convenient that Whitney leaves Teen Vogue and Lauren just so happens to get offered a position at the same place? As if its that easy. And Stephanie just so happens to go to Lauren's school and is in her class? Puh leaze

I love that Whitney is getting more airtime. The first few episodes focused on her a bit more and I liked it bc before we mainly only saw her at work with Lauren but now we are seeing solo stuff with her.

I didnt like the premiere and glad they didnt stay in Paris too long bc that was boring. I thought these episodes were going to take place there but its a good thing they arent.

I'd be surprised if it lasts much longer. Weren't there only going to be 8-10 episodes? And they've been showing 2 episodes per Monday.

And there was an episode of True Life about people in the fashion industry. It had the same Fashion Week fashion show in it that Lauren and Whitney worked.

Im watching! Im hooked on it. I dont know why Whitney is one of the main girls when she is barely featured. She isnt friends with any of them. She only gets scenes via Lauren who she happens to work for. I like Whitney but she only gets like 1 episode a season where they tend to focus on her. Theys hould just bump her and make Lo the 4th girl

That's great! I like Whitney.

I'm still watching The Hills but it's not that interesting anymore. There's way too much Audrina amd Stephanie. And I think it's more fake than usual because most of them are "popular" now and people know who they are. These reality dramas are better when they're in the 1st and 2nd seasons because they're still unknowns and can "act" more naturally. I really liked Newport Harbor and 8th & Ocean, but they never got second seasons. :(

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
