With CBS known as "the Tiffany Network," and NBC known for "Must-See TV," what else was ABC to do, lol?

Michael Strahan took a job to be more challenged he probably want to be her second banana. It's hard for me to feel sorry for Kelly when she makes 36000 in an hour on TV. She is beyond rich. Chit we actually agree on something. I feel like she chaneed from her soap days. She used to be funny cute and a joy. She's now vain, superficial, talks about herself non stop. Apparently she was screaming after declaring I am the star of this show this is my show. U know what speaks volumes about Ripa is Regis stated he hasn't spoken to her since the day he left. She didn't return his calls or texts.  I just feel an example of fame and celebrity and money changed Kelly Ripa into a different person. Isn't that sad? Plus she won't even talk about her soap past she never attends the daytime emmys. She's too good for all that now.

ABC had Aaron Spelling at that time (nicknamed Aaron's Broadcasting Company). 

 

All I have to say is, you didn't see Susan Lucci walking off the AMC set when the shocking news broke five years back...

And whatever happened to the show must go on?   She can sit in that mansion and bemoan how everyone has treated her horribly, but this whole incident reveals what a horrible diva she is.   She is an ex-soap actress who got plucked from obscurity to become a mega millionaire talk show star, and she is angry?   They should tell her to report to work or she's fired.     They could probably get Regis to take over for a month while they seek out new hosts and nobody would even notice or care.   Talk show hosts are pretty ephemeral when it comes to fame and audience affection.    Whatever became of Sally Jesse Raphael or Jenny Jones?  There have been a bunch of once famous chatters who everyone saw as being famous and needed, and then their show stopped and nobody ever gave them a second thought.    Star Jones thought she was a big shot too once upon a time.

      -- I love a good build, and the show has made me look forward to Winterfest. But some things seem so forced.  -- For example, the Vernon/Sharon meetups. GMAB. It's so obvious what this is and they're playing it too hard for too long.  I think one purpose is to make Leslie look like a fool, but it's hard to take. Is the tour over for Sharon? Does she sit in the hotel room all day long waiting for Vernon? Is he paying her bills? It's dumb.  -- Leslie is an awful human. I don't think she gives a rat's ass about Peaches. She cares more about Eva's sex life.  -- Izaiah and Eva have nice chemistry, but their conversation seemed forced to me. Didn't sound like first date dialogue and was too on the nose.  -- Shanice was great in taking down Leslie. I'm so glad the writing didn't have Leslie land the biggest smackdown. Dr. Wilkes was also great.  -- Again, Leslie is spending like she's worth a bajillion dollars. This has to be written for laughs.  -- I've done a complete turnaround on June. I now think she's a great addition.  -- Martin and Smitty are so concerned that Tyrell learn about Banneker that they call in a guy who started work there this week?

        -- Tyrell is so much more mature than Samantha. I hate the way she treats him and talks about him in front of others.  She really sat there and asked Jessica why she's even with Tyrell. Samantha is pathetic.    Screenshot time: -- If I can get Fish & Fries at Orphey Gene's for $5, why is a glass of juice $4 ? -- That Mr & Mr sign at Martin and Smitty's is beyond lame and tacky.

      So do I. Jack actually treats her like an equal partner. And he’s done far less evil things Nikki has just to ignore including to his own kids than Victor any day.

      This 11/17 episode was extremely lazy and boring. That Adam and Chelsea opening scene was so cringe and out of character for both.  Billy Flynn is being wasted and I was only interested in Claire and Holden.    Every character feels the same with no actual personality.

      Ugh...right? At least if Chris Bernau had been able to continue in the role, it would've been intriguing to watch Alan manipulate Reva.

      Yes, it was. Dinah had started to soften after Henry's heart attack in March. After Paige Turco took over the role, the attitude is turned way, way down. The thing about Vanessa was, she could be very territorial. If Dinah had gone to Lillian (who had befriended Dinah before she knew Vanessa was her mother), that would've stung a bit, but Van probably would've understood. But Dinah getting advice from Ross' new girlfriend would not have sat well with her, the same way Van later bristles anytime Nadine tries to stake some kind of role in Bill's life. @DeeVee  I know it's been brought up before, but I hadn't really connected Long breaking up Ross/Van to the fact that she'd neither created that backstory or been responsible for giving them a love child.  I wonder what she would've done had she been there when Jordan left, and had to break Billy/Van up.

      Well, she just said "ladies" on the show but she didn't specify they were fellow actresses. It could have been some of the women behind the scenes of the show. There was a lot in the interview that wasn't clear to me.

      Now would’ve been a great time to get the next A plot going, versus Bill and Katie and Steffy and Liam rehashing the same BS about Luna we have been hearing for weeks.

      I feel it could benefit from a focus on one of their three A stories or a solid B plot. But right before the turnover from Guza to Thomson, outside of all things Dani...there's nothing too A story-ish going on. Still entertaining for me, but it's noticeable that there is not a main story with other B/C stories going on. It's just...a bunch of stories going on.    I do hope the build to Winterfest and us actually seeing it THIS month will get things moving again.    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
