All caught up with NYC!

Season 5 saw a return to the more entertaining days of the show, versus the painful Season 4.

I'm thinking of picking up another Housewives show... Which one would you suggest? OC or Atlanta?

NJ

ATL

BH

Miami: Season 2

Really you cant go wrong with any of those. Be warned that NJ and ATL start to fall off a bit with season 4, but S1-3 are must sees. BH only has 3 seasons and they have been great. Hopefully it doesn't start to have the same drop in quality that the other franchises have with season 4. Miami; don't even bother with S1. S2 is almost a brand new show and SOOOO much better. Actually Id recommend that as season 3 is about to start in a few weeks and you could be all caught up by then.

ETA: DaytimeFan is right about Vancouver. Season 1 was really, really good

That's a shame about NJ and ATL after their third seasons. Just like what happened with NYC. I hesitate to start them because there are soooo many seasons.

OK, it seems MIAMI season 2 is the place to start, since we're close to season 3. I hope I can find it. Although I kinda hate jumping seasons.

Thanks Eric, Daytime and Cheap! happy.png

Season 4 from ATL was excellent. Classic from beginning to end. I will never accept the reports that it was a bad season. Season 5 was the crappy season IMO. Nobody had a storyline that year except Kenya and Phaedra. Season 4 had everybody shining. Cynthia was actually interesting, Kandi had her sex toys, there was Kim's new life (which has always been a draw for me), plus Marlo, Nene being the fabulous queen she is and Sheree's downfall. There was a lot to enjoy in that season.

I wouldn't recommend watching New Jersey. Even when it was "good" I walways found it repetitive since they always rely on as few storylines as possible. Season one was basically building up only to the table flip, which the promos made clear by showing it each week. I'd recommend OC or Miami.

Joe and Melissa clearly don't want to make up. Just from their private interviews and their comments to the others. And Joe crying in his room was so pathetic and fake. Grow and up and take some responsibility.

Is Tre innocent? Absolutely not. At some point she has to acknowledge that perhaps she wasn't thrilled when Joe picked Melissa as his future wife. At some point she has to admit that maybe she had reservations about her or didnt like her. She also has to own the fact that she's constantly around these people who have something negative to say about her sister in law. Just say it, apologize for not speaking up in defense of Melissa or at least not talking one on one with her about these "accusations".

Until she does that Joe and Melissa will always have a reason to go in on her. The whole thing is just so sad but only cuz of the kids.

Get ready bc Im about to SLAY them bitches.

Phaedra's body looks sloppy. I'll give her a pass bc she just had a baby BUT she should know better than to where such a tight outfit. She has Star Jones body

Kandi's hair looks nasty. Maybe she should make amends with Ms Lawrence bc he wouldn't let her go out there look a hot mess. I am laughing at that photo of her eyes closed touching her head. Its as if she just saw her reflection in a wine glass and realized just how ridiculous she looks. Im not going to say much about her except Phaedra at least had baby and well this one didn't....

Porsha...basic bitch. Why was she invited back? Everyone looks semi classy (or at classy as some of these ratchet folk can be) and she looks like she's ready for a party by the poolside. Where are her pants?

I CANT with Derek J's shoes. And do you see them painted toenails? Ewww

Nene looks fab and her wig looks better, but she has ashy feet. Kenya can emphasize with her. Maybe Nene should have asked her for some of that lotion she keeps in her purse (and Im assuming she does after she got called out about her ashy ass feet on tv)

Goddess Kenya is here biggrin.png I just needed that visual confirmation. Now her face is starting to crack. She looks about 10 years older than when we last saw her. Scratch what I just said about Ms. Lawrence bc I hope he wasn't the one that helped her with her makeup. It makes her top look even worse bc all Im thinking is, why is Grandma dressed like a hoochie?

Cynthia...I aint got sh-t to say about her bc she looks fab from head to toe. I love her weave and that color and her skin is impeccable.

Now Porsha's haircut. How cliché of her to cut her hair after getting dumped. So many women do that. I will say that that final pic of her and Cynthia looks nice but Cynthia looks better than her.

    • You're probably right. They may have just wanted edits of certain characters. Hopefully the rest is around.
    • Of course!

      I'm wondering if there were bits cut from this footage, because to me it seems that may be the case. At 11:23, Laurie tells her psychiatrist that the bar phoned and told her Mark got into a fight and needs to be picked up. It starts to fade to the next scene, you hear some different music begin and get cut off between the static, and where you'd expect to see the aftermath of the fight, we cut back to a later scene of Laurie in bed worrying about what's happening. The credits at the end also show that more than Mark, Laurie and Dr. Northcote should have been in this episode. Another character, Brody, played by Ed Setrakian, is mentioned but not shown. If this is the case, perhaps the original fan who saved this episode has the additional scenes.
    • Anyway… It’s a shame that the video that depicted Leticia’s death was removed from YT.

    • Ms. Phelps holds a BFA in directing from Carnegie Mellon University, awarded in 1972. At a time when women were underrepresented in directing programs, she was one of the few women in her graduating class. To suggest that she possessed no further talents than completely changing the style of music used on soaps seems like a vast underestimate when one reads her online biography through an objective lens. I guess that I should be more clever than to constantly blame misogyny for these misguided interpretations of her management style.  But, I'll never comprehend why fans unquestionably align their opinions even years after fact. Post-modernism, and the ability to reinterpret context through the study of history, seems to elude this conversation.

    • This is 100% correct.  It was even on the nightly news where the US Government would not let the cast and crew travel to Egypt because it was deemed not safe.  The Achille Lauro hijacking took place on October 7, 1985, when the Italian ocean liner MS Achille Lauro was hijacked by four men representing the Palestine Liberation Front off the coast of Egypt, as she was sailing from Alexandria to Ashdod, Israel. The location shoot was probably scheduled to be filmed in mid-October to air throughout November with a two week tape to air date.  Remember on the show they did some in studio scenes doubling for Egypt before shifting the action to Arizona.  It was an awkward end to a truly bizarre storyline.

      New episode from late 1973 or early 1974!
    • Coronation Street had a very good story where one of the characters befriended a man who she later learned had been involved in her husband's death - when told right it can be very powerful (not like AMC trying to make it a romance). ATWT almost had a big fire in mid-1994, so this seemed to be a "thing" with P&G at the time. I guess it fits the disaster backstage atmosphere.
    •   @jmgaw did not refer to Luke and Laura. Throughout 78 GH's ratings continued to rise as AW's fell. That turnaround was getting a lot of attention in the soap press with Scotty/Laura, Rick/Leslie/Monica etc . So the 90 min decision was a reaction to that. I guess the thinking was that 60 min expansion had worked so starting AW a half hour before might keep viewers from switching to GH at 3pm. I don't think anybody really thought it would work. The most sensible solution would have been to expand The Doctors and hope for a GH like turnaround, but for reasons unknown TD never went to an hour.
