ADAM HOW COULD YOU! :lol:

I thought today's epi was not as bad. I loved the Angie/Jesse scenes, Erica/Carmen/Jack scenes, Dre/Cassandra, and I LOVED the Greenlee/Jake scenes!

I found the Kendall/Annie/Zach/Ryan scenes actually okay. I loved that little catfight. GO KENDALL! :wub:

So what's up with Cassandra/YaYa leaving anyway? Did she have a contract? Did she want out of it? Was she not liking her gig? Was she fired?

Hopefully after a couple of months back in Paris - they'll bring her back as a recast. Angie needs a daughter - we need another girl in the Hubbard family.

Greenlee/Jack scenes were great. Loved that.

I've been giving Kendall lots of hell lately - but Annie went overboard with this Spike thing today. I can't blame Kendall for acting the way she did today.

same here and based on her talk with Ritchie, I think that Annie might try and kill Kendall next. I think Kendall is wrong though in the way she attacks and eggs on a mentally ill person. She knows she's crazy, so why the constant insults and jokes about her? Does she not realize that this only makes things worse?

Yaya is going to be in rehearsals soon for an off-Broadway play. Although the show has accomodated actors doing this before (Tonya Pinkins and ex-old-new-Derek), I'm thinking the decision was mutual here. Cass was a B&E character decision, Pratt's coming on board. I'm just thankful they're not killing her off; I swear this show kills off too many people, and then asks us to buy it years later after seeing them escort people to Heaven and everything...

Again, today, different vibe, different vibe. Time will tell, but I was feeling it. Discussions actually contained character development today, with beats and glances. And we got some different pairings. Even Aidan and Greenlee were tolerable today...wait, they were only together for that last act, right? :P

Meh I was just so so on today's ep. I loved Erica manipulating and confusing the Hell out of Carmen--classic Erica (and in Erica's own mind she prob thinks she's not doing any of that). I liked the Hubbard scenes, even Annie finally being honest with her craziness and Ryan finallyr eacting in the way someone actually really would. But after feeling the show was on an upswign since Friday this was just so so for me. Oh well Pratt isn't even officially writing yet.

Oh about Jake moving out--did the old writers intend a big story there and Pratt wants none of it? Cuz it felt like he JUST moved in, we got one or two funny scenes and now he's gone...

    • I love that office set and I wish we could see more of it. I forgot the verbal exchange between Lady Whistle Tits and Colin. What was the outcome? Why was she crying? Did Colin clock her over the head and stick a mini LGBTQ flag in the middle layer of her eardrum?
    • Well, we all knew this was going to happen with Sloan/Eric/Nicole/EJ. But I like this storyline. I just wish they would slow it down. You don’t rush through a storyline when it’s good, you play it for all its worth. I hope we get another twist somewhere down the line. Plus, there’s too many Dimeras on the canvas as it is. And not enough Bradys.  Speaking of Dimeras, what was this Dimitri/Kristen marriage [!@#$%^&*]??  Thank God it seems like it’ll be over and done with after just this one episode. And judging by the way those scenes ended, I hope this doesn’t mean that Peter Porte lied in the Michael Fairman interview. Plus, I see they’re screwing up the timeline again, since 39 years ago, Megan was in Salem, completely alive and devoted to Bo.  Other than that, I would much rather have seen Chloe’s first day at the Spectator rather than just hearing about it. And I would much rather have heard about Leo crying about Colin rather than seeing it. They really need to sort out their priorities on this show. 
    •   RHOA has lost the humor that took it to the top of the RH franchises. The ones who understood comedy either got grumpy (Nene), fired (Phaedra) or left of their own accord (Porsha). Kenya and Kandi are not natural comedians. Sheree's comedy was her obliviousness. The shade is now about jabbing each other, not having a belly laugh. Editing is trying to fill the humor gap but failing. There is also no cohesion: everyone comes across as a work hire. I've been waiting for my streaming service to upload last week's AND yesterday's episode. It claims there is a 'technical issue' but has no problem uploading RHONJ, VPR and other Bravo content. I don't know what's going on, but it happened with last season's RHOA, too. It's symbolic of the way Bravo has checked out of this franchise. They need to bring back Nene, Porsha, Phaedra, Cynthia, even KZB (though I really don't like her). Just throw everything at this show, and if Kandi or Kenya are unhappy about those returns, welp...

    • 100%. Companies want to block any criticism or duck accountability with regards to delivering a service. They sent two young kids to deal with hundreds of passengers, and they just repeated the mantra "Please go onto the website and rebook your journey." Not one executive or decision-maker was visible. To compound matters, I ended up catching Covid from the melée of passengers at the station, lol. This is what I mean about being let down by tech. A more personalized, human(e) service would have been more efficient in this situation. Within an hour, most passengers could have been quickly rebooked on trains that very day. But Eurostar just wants the algorithm deal with everything, and save some $$ and avoid either training humans or having to deal with human customers. Another example: the closure of physical retail bank spaces in the UK. They want everyone to do banking 'on the app.' This is isolating a sizeable portion of older or immigrant residents who prefer dealing in cash and checks and don't know how to use computers or fancy smartphones. How to take out cash or deposit checks? Where do you go when you notice fraud in your account or on your credit card? Sit on a phone for half-an-hour and go through the motions dictated by automated voicecall? Biden also recognises the alliance aspect of shared values under threat. But I will say that the Inflation Reduction Act was not well received in the EU -- it was seen as a competitive strike to attract European green business across the Atlantic to the US. Now the EU is trying to formulate meaningful green subsidies and incentives of its own. Fear of an invasion of Taiwan is also governing this decision. Will the US back the Pacific alliance of Taiwan, Japan and South Korea? Guess that depends on who is in the WH.
    • That is interesting as it's audience share doesn't really drop much. So it seems overall that timeslot lost households. At least that's how I read it.  You can see it drop from an 8.4 to a 7.9 but it maintains a 27% share and then it falls again to 7.6 and finally drops 1% share point. So despite it's big tumble in rank, overall it was still mostly maintaing its share of the available audience.
