Its really difficult posting about Gizelle. Ive just run out of words other than she has no soul. 

 

I love Ashley, especially since her sh!t is out there and she's still so messy. She takes a stand and maintains it. I do, however, think she needs to be cautious of how she chooses to remain relevant. Carrying gossip is one thing but potentially ruining a woman's reputation is a totally different ball game. 

 

Monique simply needs to take stock of everything and possibly make some changes. 

 

Robyn remains garbage and she's someone in the school yard you'd enjoy watching get jumped by about 7 girls!  Mindless trash!  

 

Karen remains dishonest and delusional. You no longer run a city in which you can't afford to live (not that you ever did run it)!  Shut up!  

 

Charisse, you're no longer in the opening credits for a reason!

Bethenny is evidence of what happens when certain personality types obtain power and/or control.  They let it go to their head and they resort to gas lighting to keep that control... sort of like a certain someone holding office right now.  If she had said to me that I was freaking her out, I'd ask if she needed to go to her safe space to collect herself.

I can't believe I am going with Carole on this. Carole is such a judgemental, mean-spirited person. I don't buy her being upset that Bethenny e-mailed Adam 'behind her back.' I think Carole had probably started disliking Bethenny for a while before then, and Bethenny felt it.

 

Having said that, when Carole asserted that Bethenny isn't used to people saying 'No' to her, I was like 'Where is the lie?'

@Soaplovers , you hit the nail on the head with Bethenny. The power she has on this show has gone to her head. She went way too far with Luann at the Berkshires, but even after that backlash, she continued calling the shots at Bravo -- nixing Luann's potential wedding special, getting Jules fired, and playing Poor Little Victim last year. Bethenny thinks she is invulnerable. But judging by this episode, the tide is turning.

 

Carole managed to come across clear and to-the-point, asking what they could do to get the friendship back on track. Bethenny talked in passive-aggressive circles to avoid answering the question. It made her look guilty. I see from the previews next week that she starts screaming like a cornered animal and playing naked wasted (Drunk Bethenny always feels v fake to me). I guess this is the 'breakdown' Bethenny has been talking about? This is the excuse meant to absolve her for whispering against her BFF. Similar to the 'I blacked out' excuse with Luann two years ago.

 

Bethenny has met her match with Carole. That's not a bad thing for this show.

 

 

lol your posted killed me especially the bit about Robyn and Charisse.

Exactly. She will be pleading guilty to a lesser charge (the misdemeanour which is not as serious as a felony), which will avoid jail time. She may do community service and pay a fine and restitution (or any combination of such).

 

It is the correct result in the circumstances. It seems the police are involved in far too many issues that are straightforward civil nuisances. 

 

All of this comes to a head on July 25, so fingers crossed for Lu.

I have grown to love this "Christmas at Dorinda's at The Berzerkshires" tradition. As a total Christmas whore, the holiday porn is total heavenly overload for me, lol.  I enjoyed the lightheartedness with Dorinda, Carole, and Ramona. First of all, I'm *finally* giving a damn about Carole. Secondly, it's funny to see her and Ramona finally getting along (Carole used to be so dismissive of loopy Pinot Singer). 

 

I concur with you all in that Bethenny has met her match in a verbal smackdown against Carole. Carole isn't getting flustered and tongue-tied as the rest of them do. She's remaining calm, standing her ground, and making her point heard. Bethenny's responses weren't even solid answers and made her look stubbon, determined to be mad at Carole for something, no matter if she pinpoints exactly why or not. 

 

Sonja getting rid of some pets is a step in the right direction, I guess. It'll help with the upkeep, or lack thereof, with her house. Her new talking head is much more flattering; she looks like she was born anatomically female again.

Just got back from the gym...give me a moment to get some food. LOL!!!

 

ETA: OOOoooooooo a new girl going after Gizelle. WOW!!!

 

In fact, all signs look like it's GIzelle's downfall to me. 

 

I can't wait for that vacation trip. It looks so beautiful.

 

And it looks like they are still keeping it real...and Charisse continues to get dragged. lol.

    • 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.
    • Thank you so much @skylark ! @Vee @vetsoapfan @Paul Raven @soapfan770 @All My Shadows @FrenchFan @Contessa Donatella @Maxim @Brent @Forever8 @Khan @MissPalmer @Chris B @SoapDope @jam6242 @slick jones @dc11786 @te. @soapfan61 @Soaplovers@Avatar610 @AMCOLTLLover
    • 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.
