Oh my, where do I start.....

The entries from Albania and the Czech Republic were ok, nothing special at all but ok...

I do love the Italian language but their song feels too monotonous. There's nothing seriously wrong with it, but it is a little boring.

Australia..... singing opera in a ridiculous outfit didn't work for Estonia last year, and won't work for Australia this year.....

France.... awful voice and I'm not sold on the song either. And what's with singing lines in English when French is such a beautiful language? 

Spain... oh dear.....   

United Kingdom.... frankly it's embarrassing that a country like the UK is represented by such crap in a music competition. They clearly have no interest in this contest anymore, so why do they even bother...

Oh dear, things go from bad to worse.....

Croatia: Pretentious crap. The verse sounds like a slowed-down version of the (vastly superior) Finnish entry from 1983, "Fantasiaa"

 

Estonia: Not bad I guess, but instantly forgettable. And like some of the entries here in Sweden this year very obviously inspired by Avicii.

 

Latvia: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Montenegro: What the hell is this?! Complete and utter rubbish, with cringeworthy lyrics.

 

Slovenia: Possibly the most boring entry in the whole of Eurovision history. Boring song and boring performers (if you can even call them that).

Apparently, Maruv won the Ukrainian National Final last night, but she won't be allowed to represent the country because she has given concerts in Russia

    • I think in some ways the story could have been stronger because Wendy and Stephanie had a more nuanced mother-daughter relationship and Lisa Peluso could act, but I don't really think Louise worked as Stephanie, so the impact wouldn't have been the same.  That would be a better way to bring drama than another serial killer story. And Sarah probably would have snapped and Jo would have been held hostage again... As someone said above, I do wonder why Philip Brown didn't last longer. Then again, I'm not sure why Kevin Conroy didn't last longer either. 
    • That thought crossed my mind too but I really don't want Kate to cheat on Roman

    • Bored or just bored with story or character: Ashley Derek Pamela Vanessa Doug Joey aka Jon Lindstrom....he truly sucks in the role. The gambling set, gambling story hate and bored with a passion. Dani and Andre in bed every five seconds.....yawn! Diego the fitness guy....yawn!! Today's show, minus Kat, Eva, and Jacob/Leslie sprinkled in, was very boring!
    • Is Ashley/Derek really arguing over a damn scratch on the fridge?!  MVJ, get rid of both characters... NOW! 
    • I do think Vanessa was lesser than Reva and Alexandra in those runs, but I think Long also gave Vanessa a centerpiece on the show she never would have had otherwise, and she did bring the character back (I know Maeve had only wanted a break but if Long had not wanted her to return, she wouldn't have returned).
    • Well, Catherine Hicks did say once that the only way she'd agree to a reboot is if started with Eric's funeral. I used to love this show when I was little but I watch it now and all I do is roll my eyes. The writing was so heavy handed and honestly, the Camdens were a bunch of pretentious, judgmental snobs

    • https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/19/benjamin-netanyahu-israel-take-control-gaza-uk-france-canada-threaten-action    Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed that Israel will “take control” of all Gaza, as three key allies attacked his “egregious” escalation of the military campaign and blockade on humanitarian aid. Britain, France and Canada attacked Israel’s expansion of its war as disproportionate, described conditions in Gaza as “intolerable” and threatened a “concrete” response if Israel’s campaign continues. finance minister Bezalel Smotrich said Israel’s army would “wipe out” what remains of Palestinian Gaza.  “Now we conquer, cleanse and stay" ---------------------------- My thoughts: This is genocide, ethnic cleansing.  It's just evil and there's no excuse for it.  I'm glad Canada, France, and UK are making a statement, and I hope they back it up. There are some Israeli citizens who don't support what Netanyahu is doing, and I hope they are able to enact some positive change from within.
    • -- I'm not unhappy that Nina and Carly had a bad fight including slapping and tackling and falling down. But geez, all that insane SCREAMING was over the top. It was three minutes of shrieking, and I thought it was all too much. -- And ANOTHER day of Dante ripping Gio and Gio again discussing his sins and failures. Make it end already. -- In the previews, Gio is walking the Nurses Ball red carpet with Joss. Uh...why??? I don't know why Joss is there at all. Doesn't she have some secret agent stuff to do? -- Chase is at the end of the previews, yelling into the phone "You want me to do WHAT???"  My guess is that's another fakeout that there's something important going on, and that Chase got a call to perform at the Nurses Ball. This show....
    • Watching...   For the most part, today's show is boring and trending on fast-forwarding scenes.
    • I figured that they would take Kat in this direction with men for the time being. I like those small bits of history from Tomas, but I still have not warmed up to him yet. A Pamela/Vanessa feud could be worth the watch.
