I can see why some of the cast said this season is a slow burn. You can see there is some reconciliation happening and by the end of the season Sandoval is going to have a few allies.

Ariana and Katie misjudged the audience. They thought they could impose ultimatums on the cast and sit high in judgment. That doesn't work in the long run because it makes them look smug and that grates on the audience.

Ariana would have been far better off being cool with Sandoval and let him continue making a fool of himself.

I think after the 3 part finale the word on the street is that VPR is going on pause.

 

And there is also something being hidden that comes out during the reunion going on that NO ONE has seen. 


Speaking of REUNION TRAILER ANYONE...?

The ratings suggest otherwise. It was another major ratings grabber and it's Peacock ratings were also through the roof.

I do agree that the season itself was a flop and the last 3 minutes could easily be a series finale. What production has to grapple with is Ariana and Katie are never going to film with the group the way production needs. And there is a huge audience that supports them, so they have to retool somehow.

That's how I feel as well.

 

I didn't watch cuz we know I usually do in order...lol...but I do know the ratings fell only a little from last season so they maintained their audience for the most part due to everyone wanting to see the true fallout. 

 

It's also why I find it so odd what is going around about Bravo putting it on pause. I could get it if the ratings weren't there. But...it is still there. Wonder what's up.

They also didn't really pause much between the last reunion and picking up the cameras for this season, right? Some of it could just be to take a damn break, which I'm sure the cast is asking for, too.

They have some creative stuff to figure out, as well, but I'm not convinced the pause is any kind of catastrophe.

    • Yes. I don't know if Lenore was ever asked. Then it became a nun. Thanks. I didn't realize it was in 1987. That timeline doesn't make a lot of sense even if she would have had Ed to interact with. If they didn't ask her back in 1989 and she was willing, what a stupid error.
    • Wasn't there talk of them bringing back Rita as Gus' mother at one point? Or something?
    • I think they are a part of the same family, although Carla was never really scheming for the same reasons, and once her double life was exposed, she stopped. 
    • Rachel/Ada, Mona/Erica, a mother/daughter at LOVING, these are all examples of the Agnes Nixon "troublesome daughter/put upon mother" trope. Are Carla/Sadie by any chance one of the pairs that make up this trope? Another thing that these 2 shows might have in common. OLTL had a very strong thematic approach to socioeconomic differences between groups of people. Class differences. AW at an earlier point had this too but to be clear it was not as much as OLTL. So that is a similarity but marginal.  Besides that, I see no other comparable things. Paul Rauch was a very different EP at different shows. Oh, I've thought of one more thing. Using actors from the Broadway stage.  But, realistically that was something all of the NY shows had in common. So I don't think it has any uniqueness between AW & OLTL.  
    • When you look at the period between Sweeps, it's as if they tried to maintain a kind of pace where they had a lot of plates spinning in the air & on their fingertips & the whole goal was nothing but to not drop any of those plates. A version of spinning one's wheels. They're not getting anywhere but they give the appearance of a whole lot of activity. I believe it's all about this appearance. At moments they accidentally hit a chord & something resonates but it is a false event.

    • I’m not speculating anything, but I admit, I’m getting a little worried about James Reynolds. 
    • I feel like this is what they're doing by creating lots of storylines but their biggest weakness for years is the inability to properly pace these stories and give resolution. A good example now would be the Gio story which has been simmering for months with very little movement. I went from not caring to being invested to not caring again because of how long it's taking for the secret to be revealed. One story like that would be fine but it seems like everything moves at this snails pace on GH. They need to do a better job of rotating the stories so everything isn't in that same treading water phase.
    • However, those of us who watch DAYS have been spoiled. On Peacock there are no preemptions. Not for anything & not in or about any show.  I read somewhere that we Baby Boomers in a way invented instant gratification but then we realized that it was not fast enough.
