Ambush! That red headed bitch went IN on Janet. That was the most bizarre sh-t Ive seen on this show. I think Gamble set her up.. I felt bad for Janet bc Gamble made lies about her and she KEEPS finding ways to bring this BS up.

LMAO at Pettyfleur getting annoyed by the way that Lisa kept interrupting during that conversation

Now Tempest is starting with Petty and calling her boring. Bitch!

I didnt like how Gina got involved. I really dont like her being in Gamble's corner. Janet was kind of right on calling her out on being hypocritical bc what she did with Lydia is the same as what Janet did with Gamble. LOL at Gina calling Janet boring though. Boring was the hot word this episode

I thought it was rude how Gina was making digs at Petty and talked about her accent. As a Gina fan, I didnt think she came across good this episode at all. Looks like Petty tries to come for her next week. Emphasis on try bc it looks like Gina shuts her ass down. This season started off slow but sh-t is going down. Im loving it

re: Kim/Nene potential spinoff:

It'll be short-lived. Those two can only stand each other for so long. When one feels threatened by the other, they act out. Factoring in Gregg and Kroy too, I don't see this lasting long if true.

re: The Tuckers spinoff:

It won't last. Kandi better stay her ass on housewives. Watching Momma Joyce in small doses is a good thing. Kandi would wanna feature her full-time on this spinoff and it would be a mess. Kandi would ruin her marriage by pursing this.

RHOMelbourne:

Watched the latest episode and I didn't feel bad for Janet. Sorry. I didn't. I understood Tempest's frustration with Janet because I'd feel the same way too if someone started a rumor about my sibling too. I do think that Tempest went overboard, but I am glad that she felt remorseful once Gina explained things to her.

Pettifleur is a twat. I went from liking her to quickly disliking her. She needs to go back on another hiatus and stay gone. Casting flop with this one.

Lydia is a twat too. She's another one that can exit stage left. For her to pick on Gamble at all is hilarious. Especially, when Lydia isn't the brightest crayon in the box. And for her to bring up what Gina said weeks ago was petty. That just solidifies why Gina wasn't so accepting of her apology. Lydia is a flip-flopping b-tch. One moment, she's eager for Gina's friendship. The next, she is tossing her under the bus. That's why those dishes got blown on her ass. Damn fair-weather friend.

I like Chyka but she is a snake. Her day will come when she won't be able to slither out a situation and play Switzerland.

Jackie ... meh. I don't find her to be the Greek chorus. She's just a meddlesome as Gina, who Jackie stays accusing. Jackie is thirsty and hungry for a fight--a storyline. I hope Gina does not give in.

Gina didn't need to butt into the Gamble/Janet feud but I get it. After being ganged up and lied on by these women last year, I understand why she is protective of Gamble. Had Gamble not reacted like she has these past episodes and fought back, these rumors would've gotten bigger overtime and they would've used it against her; however, I hope that after this trip, it is seriously buried. Gamble needs to let it go. I'm tired of Gamble beating Janet into a pulp. I think she's learned her lesson for once.

Good thing she was just practicing bc Nene's read of Cinderella was terrible. She got too much useless filler airtime

Phaedra got the biggest room bc she's been going through some stuff? Id have been like f--k that bitch! I do have to say I felt for her when she started getting emotional while talking to Claudia. I like those vulnerable moments bc they come across real. Usually she puts on a show, throwing shade and trying to act comical to hide her issues. Im glad Kenya called her out on how she refuses to apologize.

DEAD at Claudia's horse trot impression of Poorsha

LMAO! I know Kandi did not fall asleep and start snoring while doing yoga. LOL. She also STAY talking about food. Notice how she was first in line in McDonalds and she was eating at the register

Demetria is a cute girl but she is so irrelevant

Overall I thought that Claudia was a great hostess for this trip.

Poorsha was doing the most. I cant with her ass. Look at her stirring up trouble.

Kim gets about a good million and half viewers on her show. Because her seasons are smaller and the show is shorter, that's why they renew it. It's a cheap show.

But I don't know why they are giving Kim and Nene a spinoff consisting of them traveling across the country. That trope has been done numerous times. It's quite played out. I guess Bravo is hoping they'll rekindle their battle on the bus back in s3, but I doubt it. This show is just dumb.

I don't know why they also did spinoffs to Married to Medicine and Ladies of London. Especially in the same area. They'll be like the same show unless one consists of an all black cast and the other all white.

Bravo is going to oversaturate their brand with all these spinoffs. I agree that they should've either made one of the shows a housewife show OR they should've retooled Miami one last time.

I feel like the craze for reality TV is about to die down. Especially with scripted breakout hits like Empire and How to Get Away with Murder. I hope the genre does die down a bit because I am start to become jaded to it all. They are all starting to be similar. That's what I loved about the housewives franchise awhile back; they were different. Each show had their own groove. Now they are all starting to look similar.

Thanks for the article, I enjoyed the read. And I agree. Now that the general audience is privy as to what goes on behind the scenes, the mystique it once had is gone.

Now everyone wants to use these shows for instant success or some form of fame. No longer does anyone want to be on there to share their story or use it as a tool to grow much like it was during the early days of the Real World. Even competition shows have become stale.

    • What a wonderful photo! It really is a shame that Peacock will not show those early years. I know I'd love to see them!
    • With the death of Days and GH actress, Denise Alexander, someone posted this in the Days thread, a '60s-era photo of some of the cast, which lists the names. In the upper left, is a young Susan Flannery, who obviously ended up playing Stephanie Forrester on B&B, who was one of a few actresses to play Dr. Laura Horton [mother to Mike and Jennifer Horton] on Days. Here is a link to the photo: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/38014-days-behind-the-scenes-articlesphotos/?do=findComment&comment=2022200

    • Sorry, there must have been a error, while creating the file. I redone it and it has audio
    • Tamara Tunie was on a local CBS affiliate in Baltimore the other day talking about a few things she had going on, BTG amongst them: "Beyond the Gates" star Tamara Tunie is in Baltimore for the Reginald F. Lewis Museum's 20th anniversary
    • Kobe/Long had their own template and pretty much gutted the cast. As soon as contracts were up established characters were dropped. They needed to free the budget for the new characters. Going back to Ann,I wonder why the Dobsons renewed her contract around 78? After her initial story she became supporting and they didn't seem to want to pursue a romance with Mike. Maybe the feedback was that viewers blamed her indirectly for Leslie's death. If Mike hadn't taken on her case etc. Did she decide not to disrupt her son's life? Seems odd after everything she didn't claim him back. 1976 continues... Joe Werner is just not bouncing back after his recovery as he should, and Sarah, concerned about his sometimes morbid-seeming depression, consults Justin Marler. They agree that Joe is becoming a “cardiac cripple,” and know this kind of overcompensation for illness and overprecaution can not only be a permanently depressed condition but can actually cause a setback for him physically.  Marler releases Joe into Sarah’s care, but it’s soon apparent that just being out of the hospital hasn’t done anything to boost Joe’s spirits about his return to a normal existence. Marler finally lays it out to Joe—the choice has to be his. He can choose to lead a normal, productive life as a doctor and as a husband to the best wife he could have, or he can choose to become an invalid and live on the outside looking in for the rest of his days, sentencing Sarah to the same fate. Realizing the selfishness of what he’s doing to —Sarah as well as the narrowness of the confinement he’s set for himself, Joe begins to see his preoccupation with his illness as the self-pity it really is and decides he’s ready to return to the hospital for a one hour shift each day. Sarah is overjoyed by his turnabout, but full happiness is hers on the day she overhears Joe telling a fearful patient that the world is beautiful and worth any. effort to get back into it. Steve and Adam are thrilled to learn that Cedars has been the recipient of the Levy Grant for expansion of hospital property. But they have learned, as they report to Ed, that the land they were hoping to build the new research facility on, the land immediately adjacent to the hospital, has been purchased by Dr. Justin Marler. Both Adam and Steve feel that Justin is expanding a power base at Cedars and the land purchase is just one more block in Justin’s power play. When Ed asks Marler why he purchased this particular parcel of land, Marler explains that he bought it with the express intention of someday building his own offices and facilities convenient to the major facilities of Cedars. When the subject of the hospital’s needing the land arises, Marler meets with Adam, and they agree that he should realize a fair profit from his property and that an unbiased assessor should be engaged to evaluate the market value of the land so they can agree on a selling price. When Sarah comments on the fact that Marler is to realize a profit on the land, he bitterly replies that no matter what he’s done since coming to Cedars to prove that he has changed. since she last knew him, she refuses to see him as anything but what he was all those years ago. Sarah insists this isn’t true. But Marler then calls Adam for a meeting and informs him that the land is not for sale at any price. As Adam begins to grow alarmed, Marler continues that the site for the new building will be his personal donation to the hospital. As Adam expresses profuse thanks and appreciation, Marler wryly notes that the tax deductions he’ll realize on this contribution to a charitable institution will benefit himself almost as much as Cedars. When Steve Jackson learns that Marler is to be elected head of the research wing that will be built on his property, he expresses the conviction that this was the exact intention of the gift. Adam, however, assures Steve that the donation wasn’t a factor in the hospital  board’s decision, they were concerned only with Dr. Marler’s reputation as a doctor. | After lengthy consultations and meetings. with the hospital  staff, Ed assured by the head nurse that her nurses performed commendably despite the added pressure of the train wreck, presents his findings to the hospital review board. Steve arrives at two possible explanations for the facts. Either Grainger, more active than usual due to the previously delayed medication, reached for the writing pad and inadvertently disconnected the breathing tubes, or he was in a state of extreme upset because of the delayed medication and.in the excitement a surge of adrenalin within his system caused his brain aneurism to start hemorrhaging. " Upon learning that the review board has ruled out negligence in Grainger’s death, Ed tells Rita, who takes her first free breath in a long time. But Ed hasn’t thought to tell Rita that he’s been in touch with Grainger’s attorney, Mr. Schafer, who, knowing that a woman was at the base of Grainger’s investigation, is coming to Springfield to try to find out who the woman - was who walked out on Grainger when he collapsed —in the restaurant. Peggy, learning that Rita’s “forgetting” to deliver Holly’s message was instrumental in their divorce ‘being finalized, tells Ed that Holly wanted to reach him to stop the divorce. Immediately after, Peggy is torn by doubts, wondering if she did the right thing.She confides in Barbara, who then discusses the situation with Ed. He tells her he and Holly have discovered a new closeness now that they are building their separate lives. Barbara quickly contradicts him: Holly is not building a new life. Barbara gently cautions Ed, saying, “People change, feelings change, and what seems right now may not be right a year from now. No decision is irrevocable.” Ed agrees with this. Now that Ben has declared his love for her, Hope finds herself apprehensive, fearing that she might be making a mistake, as she did a few years ago, when she was sure she was in love with her college professor. Explaining that she doesn’t want to make another mistake, she asks Ben to be patient, and he agrees. When Mike expresses his disapproval of Ben’s overstated independence, his need to be beholden to no one, Hope quickly jumps to Ben’s defense, and Mike apologizes. But Ben, surprisingly, accepts Mike’s assessment as constructive criticism. Later Hope, examining her feelings and desires, tells Ben she does love him and wants to belong to him. Later that evening, after they’ve made love, Ben asks Hope to marry him.And, delighted, she replies that she will. At Hope’s instigation, Bert has a family dinner to which Ben is invited, and Hope announces their intention to marry over glasses of wine. Mike politely offers best wishes while Bert thrills the couple with her offer to' make a Christmas wedding for them. Bert later tells Mike he must accept this engagement with good spirits for Hope, and later, seeing the joy she’s feeling, he gives his daughter his approval. But Ben finds another problem on his very own doorstep: his brother Jerry, who announces he’s left home after several bad fights with their parents. He refuses to tell Ben what they were fighting about. As Ben is showering, Jerry borrows his car and goes out for an hour. The phone rings, but Ben can’t hear it. Shortly after, two uniformed officers visit Mike at home to tell him that his late wife’s car has been involved in a delicatessen robbery earlier in the evening. Since Ben bought Leslie’s car, Mike accompanies the officers to Ben’s apartment. Ben curtly informs the police that he had nothing to do with the robbery and makes it clear that he feels they wouldn’t be there if he didn’t have a record and that his exoneration doesn’t prevent his being hassled like any ex-con,as they tell him he has to go to the police station for questioning. Hope tells Ben she called him earlier, and when he replies that he must have been in the shower, she accepts his word unhesitatingly.Jerry finally returns to Ben’s place and under questioning from Ben admits that he robbed the store,explaining that he has debts. Ben is now in a quandary,as he feels he must protect his brother but doesn’t want to be unfair to Hope. He tries to ease the situation by withdrawing $185 from the joint checking account he opened with Hope and repaying the delicatessen owner. He then sends Jerry out of town to stay with a friend. His relief at having solved the problem is short-lived, however, when Mike informs him that, despite the reparations, the robbery was a felony and the police will continue to investigate. Hope is badly upset to learn while making a deposit that Ben withdrew’a sum which Mike tells her is equal to the amount stolen. This shakes her belief that he _was really home when she called, and she goes to him, asking for an answer to put her mind at rest. Ben can’t betray Jerry and asks Hope to trust him, promising she will have the whole story eventually. But Hope can’t accept this; she needs complete honesty and openness in her relationship and without it cannot goon. She painfully tells her father that the wedding is off despite her love for Ben, and tells Bert to stop preparations. Mike goes to Ben, reminding him that half the money in the account is Hope’s and she has the right to an answer. But Ben won’t say any more and refuses Mike’s offer to represent him legally, again stating that he doesn’t need a lawyer, because he’s done nothing wrong.     
    • And not since. I recall it was quite small for a house that size. And I don't know why you would walk down a narrow corridor to get to the main living area. I hate when the sets on soaps don't have a logical layout! As for Andre his clothing is fashion forward and suitable for his character.He ain't gonna wear no blazer!
    • The last I remember seeing Ben, he was divorcing Amanda. He came to tell Evie that he still loved her, but was leaving town so that Amanda wouldn't blame Evie for his divorcing her. I'm not exactly sure when, but Evie doesn't leave town until sometime after Nola and Quint's engagement ball. I'm not sure if she leaves before or after Justin leaves in Sept(?) of '83. I grew to like Helena when she became friends with Vanessa, once she's edging her way out of Quint's life.
