I hadn't seen BBWLA from the beginning, but when I got BET+, it was free.  I saw the beginning eppies and suddenly:

 

I don't care if Chad beat the sh!t out of Evilyn.  Why is her violence ok but not his?  

 

I didn't care that Eric viciously tossed a drink in Jennifer's face AT ALL!

 

Ordinarily, these things would bother me, but I can't think of 2 women more deserving.  And I love that Gloria handed Shaunie's ass to her multiple times.  Shaunie is a bully and uses her status to get these women to do her dirty work.  

 

These women were nasty and classless from day one.  They were mean and hateful dogs and Suzie did everything she could to get back into their good graces.  Meeka being a businesswoman should be embarrassed that she tried to get into the circle.  


Tami was straight rabid.  I have to wonder what her past was like because she was way too violent.  That should have been checked long before Tami decided to change her ways.  

 

Royce was the smallest thing ever but larger than life.  She really stood up for herself and made the wolf pack uncomfortable.  I really liked her.  

 

Watching those eppies made me super happy for OG!!!!!

I remember enjoying every season of LA. It was strong from the jump and I always felt it was more balanced because you didnt' have an Executive Producer as a cast member. The only bad thing is that they bring on promising newbies and they almost always get dumped the following season.

So glad OG was given a platform to speak and boy did she let it out! She is so well-spoken and deserves the world. 

 

In other news, rumor is Shaunie is about to lose her production title. #KARMA

Shaunie really did ruin BBWLA, which I always took to. Unlike Miami, the LA show was much more lighter and funnier. I always found Miami to be dark b/c of Ev/Jenn/Shaunie alliance. The LA show did not need Shaunie to come and swamp things up. 

 

I (too) am glad that Shaunie is finally getting her comeuppance. I am going to be glad that the women can now come for her ass without worrying about being fired.

FIlming should be starting soon so we will know if this is true or not, but here are rumors.

 

- Evelyn said on Instagram yesterday that she most likely won't be back.

- Shaunie is rumored to lose her power as a producer next season, so if she returns she would be on an equal playing field with the other ladies.

- Cece and OG are back

- Feby is out

 

Naturally I'd expect Malaysia and Jackie will be back. Jen I'm not sure about and havent heard anything. Honestly if these things happen I think they could have an interesting season. It would be a nicely developed cast with built in conflicts and with Evelyn gone you wouldn't have that Bethenny like character who swallows the narrative.

Binged the first 3 seasons of LA this weekend and it was really good!  Never saw the earlier seasons and I missed the hell out of Brooke!  She was a real one.  Didn't know Bambi was on the LA franchise.

 

I also didn't realize how much of a sociopath Jackie is.  She honestly couldn't help herself and needs professional help.  

 

Brandi is possibly one of the most stunning women on the planet.  As straight as I am, I just really like looking at her.  She's just stunning!!!

 

Sundy was a vile nasty creature and really deserved that black eye from Draya.

 

Draya blossomed from the little scared stripper who took loads of crap to someone you don't [!@#$%^&*] with.  

 

On season 4 where Va'Shangela shows up so once I finish this season, I'm good.  I've seen the rest.

Lol im curious as how the new season will be like since last year was explosive, and it's soo unprofessional that shaunie never called or tried to push the idea of getting together with or to have a personal conversation about what she's being accused of.

I wonder what direction the show would have went if they kept draya while tami and evelyn or if Laura had stayed on longer to eventually run into shaunie.

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark
