 You will LOVE them. Vancouver Season 1 is a complete storyline from start to finish alone. But Melbourne...I heard of the awesome fabulousness of Gina loooong before I saw her due to this board. And once I saw her due to a marathon on Bravo...it was love at first sight.

100%. Every episode has been the same configuration, different locale, but even St Lucia cannot save us from the repetitiveness now. I hope the reunion is two episodes away, and not 5!. Sutton, Garcelle and Dorit are trying hard to make the rivalries work but it just feels so scripted and produced -- right down to Garcelle's Production-induced prodding of Kyle's love life.

The only positive aspect was we didn't get Kyle & Mo passive-aggressively staring each other down.

Vancouver S1 had a SL for the ages: the battle of good versus evil for the troubled soul of Ronnie Negus. Seriously, though, it was perfection. Not a wasted minute. And what a fantastic Greek chorus Christina was.

As for Melbourne, that cast you cited radiated joy, directness,  humour and self-deprecation. These women were strong in their own selves, and therefore able to laugh at themselves. Just like with classic OG RHONY, there were episodes were I literally laughed out loud.

I hope you check them out. Both seasons 1 of Melbourne and of Vancouver are short and very accessible. Vancouver is intense as only female friendships can be and chock full of drama. Melbourne is hilarious, with two clueless, wealthy HWs really thinking they were the bee's knees -- and getting exposed on camera as a result.

Ohh I like these!  I don't mind the new graphics, although the title card for each lady is giving me Asian vibes - like Chinese with all the red graphics and their outfits... which is fine of course haha, but just what it reminds me of.

I will second what the other guys said. Vancouver season 1... is the wildest reality show ride... I've been on my entire life. Imagine a Disney villain... but real-life one... and then you have the antagonist of the franchise. It starts with a huge conflict... and there is no calm and boring SECOND.

Drew's album dropped today! Ive listened to it multiple times already and think its really good. 

Please register in order to view this content

Thats my favorite track but wish it was longer bc its a bop!

Unusual also has some good vocals

Im shocked by how much Im loving Drew these days. I couldnt stand her in her debut season but she has emerged as my favorite peach (since Kenya got demoted). I do think the way she is moving in regards to Porsha to be snakelike but I find her fascinating and enjoyable. I root for her

Meh... Drew is kinda like Potomac's Wendy where I want to like her, but there's something off. Actually I think Drew ranks worse. Not only does she have a cringey wannabe personality, but her fake one-season business ventures have been so poorly done. The "drop it with Drew" mention on Sunday was a cute nod but also an example of one of her sloppily thrown together business storylines that never had any legs to begin with. 

It's pretty crazy that with this massive cast overhaul, she was the only one left standing. It's like RHONY Season 4 wiping out everyone but keeping Cindy Barshop.

Nah it makes sense. When S15 was going off the air, I felt they could have gotten rid of everyone and rebooted th show with nw younger woman around Drew and they kinda did that. She was the only one with story and ended the season with more to tell. Oh and best believe this music isnt just for a storyline. Its always been her passion and its what she started out trying to do decades ago but she didnt have the right team nor made the best decisions. Im glad to see it finally working in her favor

      Erwin Nicholson's last episode as SFT ep was 11/21. Whitesell started 11/22/85. Erwin was on board from March 8, 1985 so less than 9 months. Whitesell lasts six months (approximately) before P&G moved him to AW for two years where he primarily worked with DePriest. Whitesell was replaced on Search by no daytime experience David Lawrence who closed out the show's last six months.

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      I assume in name only?  One Stormy Night wasn't exactly steamy.  If it's a literal throwback then Stephanie's writing about sexy times her own Uncle was having lol. Since I am going to surmise it's just a throwback to the name, Night Sins and Winter Heat both sound sexier.  Just saying.  I swear Jamey (and Ron) just google things and land on the first thing they like and decide it's a good throwback to history without watching it.

      I usually don't want Tide placement in the middle of an intense sad scene, but this is an interesting point

      Y&R: Old Articles

      Thanks!   Was anyone watching during this time? Wondering how Peggy’s rape played out onscreen. It just seems cruel to subject the Brooks family to this trauma a 2nd time.   Feels like the writers have already given up on the character of Jennifer, even though she sticks around another year-plus. She should be a passionate and fierce protective mother, but instead she seems just reactionary (and not even mentioned in this recap) This was also the case in ‘73 when Chris was raped. The writers are definitely more invested Stuart as the Brooks parent.

      BTG got another SNL reference at 00:50  CONTEXT (so it isn't misconstrued) in this joke swap segment, Michael Che frequently makes his white cohost Colin Jost read racist jokes written by Che.
