I speak from personal family experience when I say that it's not even remotely unheard of for a man to claim, or have contact/relationships with some of his children and zero with others. I have cousins in their forties who I'm just getting to know via Facebook, while I had close relationships with their half-siblings all of my life.

Great show!

First things first...someone please tell me when did praying get to be so damn sexy! Andre and his therapist were blazing. I was hoping that she was about to give him some physical therapy. And so did he by the look on his face when she said pray after he started to go in for a kiss. I don't like to be foiled like that. Not one bit! I am going to need that [!@#$%^&*] to happen. ASAP! Writings wise it make sense for Andre to want to leave Rhonda since he has given her his proxy. That will be a nice little fight there for next season. Besides, I can't get with Rhonda. She's just not my kind of bitch. I did try hard to like her because I love a social climber/gold digger. Moving on. I was hoping this would be more about Andre but I see that they couldn't spare the airtime. Had to show Hakeem and Jamal sanging. *side eye*

Lola. How dare this show tempt my ovaries with such a cutie and snatch her away. I can't decide whether Lucious is the father or not. I am going to say that he is. And i will assume that he is letting her go with her mother because his little fantasy that he cooked up with Cookie isn't going to happen. Or because he doesn't necessarily want her around reminding everyone of his nefarious deed. Or maybe he is just being kind to the mother and the child who obviously missed her mother.

It was amusing to watch Lucious catering to Cookie's whims trying to satisfy her. I like this turn about of him wanting her with her not wanting him. He is going to kill Malcolm when he finds out that Cookie has slept with him.

I am also going to need Jamal to stop sticking his forehead to guns like he has a death wish. I really do wish Lola was his. I am not sure that he and his new boyfriend are equally yolked either. Although Lola isn't his, Jamal will probably want kids one day. New boyfriend doesn't seem like he would. Too bad cause they are so pretty and sexy together.

Vernon is has a drug problem. I always wondered about the to which he is shown randomly talking to in the park. I just assumed a friend but now I believe that is his sponsor.

I am not mad at Lucious for getting rid of Camilla. Am I to believe that she was genuine in her feelings for Hakeem? Spare me. I will never believe it! Never!

Where's all the discussion, people? Last week we had like 10 pages by this point, lol. Jamal with hair? OMG, bad hair department day. Andre and Jennifer Hudson. Hello!!!

"Pray with me!" never was hotter. Those prayers consisted of eye fucks. LMFAO!

Who cares about Camilla, Hakeem? Cougar lady can just be gone.

Raven looking like a hot mess. Yikes!

See now, I don't even think Lucious was lyin'. That baby is definitely his.

    • I absolutely loved the last few episodes—devoured them! If Trisha and Ambyr’s performances aren’t Emmy-worthy, I don’t know what is. I wasn’t bothered by the lawyer girl not being at the gala from the start, or the grandkids being absent, or Vanessa being MIA. It just goes to show how unnecessarily huge the Dupree family is. And like Toups said, you can’t cram the entire cast into a single episode. Oh and the cue when Leslie was having that fantasy was epic, very DAYS-like. They should keep it and develop it   Minor nitpicks: Yeah, Ted seriously needs a recast—been saying that since day one. I still don’t know where he stands, and he just comes off as a generic nice guy. Not having Ted and Bill share a single scene since the show started? Huge missed opportunity. And not having Leslie get anywhere near Bill in one of her wigs? Another big miss. It really weakened the impact of her big reveal about Bill’s involvement. Now it just feels a bit like fan fiction. I’m totally confused by Vanessa and Doug’s “arrangement.” One moment it seems like they’re in an open relationship, and the next Vanessa acts completely shocked when Doug so much as hints at her “distractions.” Huh? Can anyone explain what’s going on there?
    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
