Assuming that everyone on Deadly Affairs has it completely planned out in terms of wardrobe changes, hair, makeup, script, crew, etc. and everything is incredibly organized to shoot it all in one condensed block, then yes, I think it's doable, but that assumes that TPTB at Deadly Affairs are willing to cram everything into a shortened schedule for her.

LMAO at Genenieve Kane having 6 ex husbands and looking for husband #7. Great plan girl! Her relationship with Zoila remains one of the best things about this show

Devious Maids just keeps getting better and better. I love that the Who Killed Flora storyline isn't the top/overwhelming priority on the show. I think, if the ratings con't. to climb/remain steady, this could last for a long while. I'm starting to come around and enjoy all of the women and the messes they're tangled up in. Glad it found a home on Lifetime.

I have to admit, this show just reminds me so much of Desperate Housewives. The tone, the music, the characters. I can just envision Gaby spending time with Genevieve or going toe-to-toe with Perri. I know Marc Cherry/Eva Longoria are obviously very heavily involved, but the show evokes some strong, wonderful DH memories I can't help but appreciate.

So Rosie is a slut, but that ugly bitch Perri isn't?

Sorry, can't stand the character of Perri am the actress, to me she is the weakest of the show. The actress that plays her annoys me as well and makes me want to punch her in the face.

I say... YOU GO ROSIE!!

They're both skanks. Just bc I said Rosie is one, doesn't mean Perri isn't. What I hate about Rosie is how she portrays herself as the sweet religious innocent one of the group yet she's the first we see f--k around with a married man and lies about it. Can one say hypocrite? I hate people like her who are so sanctimonious and holier than thou yet they are no better than the ones they pass judgement on

I can't muster the energy to judge a character in a soap opera for having an affair. It's their bread and butter, even if she is religious. Although I do think the story would be so much better if she was shown to be really conflicted about what she had done... but that would require the show not to be a Marc Cherry show. In any case, I don't think it's hypocritical. That word gets thrown around a lot. Until she had the affair herself, it was just her belief system. Human beings are very contradictory. She stood in judgment of people having affairs and now she knows better. Now, IF she continues to judge others for affairs, while having her own, then THAT's hypocritical. Aaaaaaand OK, I'm done defending her. lol

This was the Lucci Episode, through and through. So many great lines, so much funny stuff. I bet part of La Lucci is thinking now, All My ... What?

I LOVE the secret room in Adrian and Evelyn's house. SO soapy, SO over the top. And, yet, they're not glossing over what a pervert Adrian is. Also, it's really great that Marisol was fired. It ups the ante.

Remi all coked out and Valentina... ugh, spare me.

Wow I fell behind and caught up with today's marathon. This show is great! I honestly love all the stories, there is never a dull moment. The Valentina/Remy story is a bit lacking but not too bad.

Loved the revelation about Evelyn and Adrian losing their son. I thought she was an insufferable, grating bitch but Evelyn isn't so bad. Looking forward to tonight's episode and so glad it got a Season 2.

BTW I can't STAND Perri. Ol' trifling ass trick!

    • I think it's the next day, or nothing explicitly ties this one to the prior one, unless Shawn had on the same clothes as when he called in sick? So maybe I'm wrong. Did they acknowledge that Tate's little sister and babymama seem to have the same birthday? And why wasn't Tate invited to Rachel's tea party?? Javi trained to be an EMT (I thought it was in Corpus Christi, though). He revealed this after he saved Sarah from certain death -- by reminding her that she had an EpiPen -- and Leo questioned how he knew what to do.
    • Lol. For one...that jacket was off. For another...the costume designer went for comfortable BUT form fitting at the same time. For another...I guess JM is working out again cuz he looked yummy.    That said...yep. BtG suuuuuure do.
    • Same as me. So you already know what's coming as soon as I sit down to start watching this week.  
    • 5-19   You know what? I actually didn't dislike it as much the second time around. But tbf, I didn't hate it the first time either. It's already been established so far that RC's breakdowns can be pretty hit or miss. And I would say his average so far on this show has been 50/50.   Outside of Jacob vs Silk Press Sheila, it was all B/C plots. However, I got the sense that there was plot movement...something for better or for worse, RC does know how to do. And even within those plots, I felt there were so good character development moments.   What really stood out for me was Doug and Vanessa's last scene. FINALLY, they stopped dancing around it. And we got more information on what their arrangement truly is in terms of their marriage. Given the building toward it through Vanessa's sexacapedes and Doug's gambling storyline, it felt earned. And lest we forget...he still didn't tell her about his addiction nor what's going on with Joey. Meanwhile, Dani is slowly getting clues from seeing Vanessa with Joey one episode to seeing Doug in the middle of the afternoon on this episode. I don't see it as them shoving her into a storyline unlike Carly on GH if an example is needed, but it wasn't exactly organic either. Then again, the Vanessa with Joey scene was organic. Not the gambling stuff.    I did like it though. It was a nice spotlight for the Dani/Pamela friendship. And I also liked the idea that was mentioned about a Pamela vs Vanessa feud. After all, regardless of what's written on the page, they both appear on screen to be close to Dani. And I find it relatable to see two friends have issues when they are close friends to the same person, but NOT to each other. And their scene with Diego was ripe with tension.   Just cuz...HEY, DIEGO, HEY!! lol.   I loved Jacob vs SilkPress. The web that girl stays weaving continues to be fascinating to watch. I know we have discussed at length about how long SilkPress can stay on the canvas. As soon as it's figured out what she's done with Laura and allegedly Eva/Kat, it's OVER. And such a soap find...it's fascinating to watch a crafty villainess worming her way around getting caught. Which is giving old school soap. I also love that in her worming her way out of the charges, no one is being dumbed down to keep her on the canvas. So this next turn in the story is great, refreshing, and probably should be studied by other soaps.   I enjoyed Dani and Andre. Again, it has had a build. And technically if we are going there, it's about to be three months. Usually three months is the perfect time to start having the 'what are we' conversation...whether someone is casually dating or just being a booty call. And that look Andre gave Dani when she said Bill's name...oooooo he's finally over her talking about him and showing a sign of possessiveness. It's also not lost on me that his reaction to her saying her reasons...was to leave. Big uh oh for them. Where will Dani/Andre go next?   Well...look who got comfortable enough in his role that he gave some good acting aka Tomas. I liked the scenes with Tomas and Kat on a second watch. But I don't think Kat's wrong with what she said. She's so busy and focused on Eva though, she's ignoring red signs with him I am afraid.   And speaking on comfortable...look at Derek trying to act. lol. Personally, I thought both actor and actress did good jobs. And again, it's had enough of a build, you knew it was coming. And I'm surprised to type it, but I was Team Derek for that argument. He was trying to make her feel better, and it just made things worse. And Ashley was being unsufferable. How was he to know about the curry? And of course, she runs right into Andre.    Decent cliffhanger though I'm a firm NO to Andre/Ashley versus me being open to it at the start of the show. Wow...how things have changed.
    • IMDB credited that episode to Bill Bell and Pat Falken Smith, too, so obviously way off!
    • Sonny and Carly look ridiculous with this child thats the same age as Michael’s children. Maurice literally looks like he’s babysitting a grandchild but instead she’s calling him daddy.
    • Several legends here. Like @DRW50 I grew up knowing Joe Don Baker first and best from Mitchell (and his other infamous MST3K appearance, the equally hilarious Season 10 episode Final Justice - there were funny rumors he wanted to beat up the MST gang after Mitchell, while others claimed he actually took it all in good fun). I only learned later what a great actor and personality he truly was in things like Cape Fear, The Living Daylights and the original, strange and mystical BBC miniseries Edge of Darkness, where he played a CIA operative laughing in the face of nuclear annihilation. There's nobody like him. Same goes for George Wendt. Norm speaks for himself, as does Cheers. He'll never be forgotten as long as there's still television.
    • I want SHELLE to be friends, like Belle is friends with Philip.  It will always be awkward, but they've known each other since high school (24 years ago).  And it has never worked out for them romantically. One assumes Shawn-D could've used a computer at home (or Black/Patch), to continue his investigation. So, why did he show up at the Pub after he lied to take PTO, and then lied directly to Jada's face about being sick?  Unless, of course, it was just a totally inorganic, nonsense device to run into Belle. When is Johnny's first day of work?  He got the offer, met about the offer, talked about the offer.  When's he actually going into the office?  And does he own a suit (other than the red devil one)? I liked that Chad had to rule out EJ for having Philip beaten because of what happened with Rex vis-à-vis Kate, that's a cool linkage, especially because I think everyone forgot to say goodbye to Rex. 2 Questions: Is it the next day, or do Sofia, lil'Rachel, and Ari share a birthday?  Also, I missed it, how old is Ari? Did everyone skip prom?  Because I thought Prom coincided with Sofia's birthday. And what was Javi's dream job in Florida?
    • I always had the impression that Blake turning out to be Christina was a storyline switcheroo after they decided to bring back Roger. She used to talk to someone on the phone and it sounded like it was a younger sibling. Maybe originally they were going to be Spaulding cousins, like Johnny was a Bauer cousin? I'm pretty sure in the Spaulding backstory Brandon had a brother.  LOL. Nola was established as the youngest, the name Chelsea doesn't fit in with the other Reardon sibling names, AND she had a very prominent Southern accent. Kassie would have been more believable as a Lewis or a Shayne. Plus, the character was boring as heck.
