Didn't know a sequel was on its way, but I'm in. I loved the first one.

Monica Calhoun looks so jacked up with that god awful weave!

Melissa DeSousa is almost unrecognizable!

Nia looks good, but short hair is her best friend!

Regina Hall - lovely as always.

Sanaa - not wild about the hair, but she looks gorgeous!

Sanaa does look gorgeous -- lol I agree with the original assessment of the cover -- no clue what is up with Monica's look.

I still have to watch Nia on Don Cheadle's SHO show and my bb Larenz was on at the same time... Love Jones reunion!

Saw this movie and I loved it.

Terrence and Melissa provided nice comic relief. I love how everyone got adequate storyline.

Chile....Morris Chestnut's body was worth the ticket price

Alone.

Loved the subtle moment when Harper cried when Q asked him if he needed money.

Expected Mia to die when I saw her looking haggard while everyone was looking young and fresh.

Eddie Cibrian's skeevy ass was actually fine in this movie and my goodness Nia Long is beautiful! Doesn't look a day over 35.

Eric, I knew Mia was ill from her very first scene. She was way too lifeless even for Monica Calhoun!

Lance Sullivan is my favorite character by default because it's Morris Chestnut, but I love Q! Terrence is perfect!

And yeah, that tear when Harper admitted that he needed money? Sigh... Had to be tough being around all of his successful friends and having to admit that he was financially strapped, especially when they all felt he looked his nose down on the rest of them at times. I was happy that he told the fellas about Mia.

Nia Long should have more work! Not just work in "black movies", more work PERIOD! I just love her.

Robin got on my last damn nerve! Good grief woman, give it a rest! This woman finds out her best friend is dying and she's playing her "you love Jordan sh!t"? Not now!

Morris walking out in what really should be a played out 3 piece suit was a sight to behold! Magnificent! Then several scenes later, he walks out in just pajama pants? Many ovaries were doing cartwheels in that theater because I could hear the roaring behind me.

The fight between Candace and Shelby was awesome!

Overall, I really enjoyed seeing their lives change but pretty much stayed the same. It was good!

I'm gonna go see it again with my daughter Wednesday.

    • I totally agree with this, as most of you seem to. Mary Carney was at least competent and reasonably likable; I just feel like she barely had anything of substance to do before she was abruptly given the hook. And I get the backstory of Kathleen Tolan having done a play with Helen Gallagher, but...at any point did they ever actually READ her before they greenlit her? Because...OOF. First time I saw her on SoapNet was right when this GODAWFUL actress named Charity Rahmer played Belle on Days of Our Lives for all of three weeks before she was mercifully recast; her line readings were straight out of a Charlie Brown special. I remember thinking Kathleen Tolan could have played her mother! In the Frank/Jill/Delia triangle, Delia WAS the one who was cheated on, so I got why she was upset and thought it was perfectly valid in theory at least, but of course it was blown up to Wagnerian proportions including falls involving staircases and tricycles. But with Pat/Faith/Delia I had no sympathy for her...especially because it was mainly with Catherine Hicks's Faith and I really liked her.
    • I was going through those episodes from 1984 and early 1985 before they were taken down. Some of the older characters, like Don and even Tom, looked a little out of place, like they were on the wrong show. But the newer characters were fun. It's too bad they lost the character of Melissa. I guess Jennifer took her long-term place on the canvas.

    • The black and white episodes of the show are very special. An atmosphere the color run loses. Dark Shadows was filmed live-on-tape. They could do a retake but it would be very expensive. I think there was a claim that if actors wanted a retake they would curse. There was also a rumor that at one point Joan Bennett accidentally said "Hollywood" instead of "Collinwood" and that necessitated a retake.

    • Loved this IG post from Ambyr about how she and Trisha work together. You can tell these ladies go above and beyond the script, and that they really trust and enjoy working together. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJpJufFPOQ2/?igsh=MXBmcWs0YzIwaXVhNA==

    • It is a shame that more characters didn't go the ATWT-Barbara route and make the ingénue into an antagonist. Sort of like they did with Liza/Hogan/Sunny, less successfully. It is a credit to ATWT's creativity that breathed life in that character for years after she was fighting off bulls in Spain.  But, a character like Liza can only have so many true loves and high jinks on the high seas.  They need another reason to be in the story. Liza's wealth, as well as her acumen to see through fraud, was fertile ground for tons of stories.  But, I feel like the business stories for Liza were always about her being easily overwhelmed, rather than exploring things like her leadership and managerial skills.
    • STFU!! Dante!!! This nonsense of blaming Gio is just ridiculous! Alexis and Lucky are becoming so unlikable. Why are the writers writing these characters so poorly?
    • Keith still comes off younger to me. I thought he wasn't that bad for his first day.
    • To be fair, they were only recently step-siblings.  Their parents married within the past few years.  And, Draper's father Ansel was not coy about the fact that he married Raven's mother, Nadine, for the money. And, Raven's sort of sticking it to April that not only can she have a baby (April has a heart condition that makes it difficult for her to carry a child to term), she could also have April's man, if she wanted him.
