. The chemistry is nice. These black and brown beauties.

Clever right? Very Abby finding out Gary is the father of Val’s twins.

Episodes 3 and 4 were some really great television.

Ratings: FBI: Most Wanted Rises in Earlier Slot, Queens Hits Low Note

ABC | The Bachelorette (3.2 mil/0.6) dipped, while Queens (1.11 mil/0.2) matched and hit series lows with its fall finale.

A flop’s a flop….

This is just such soapy goodness. I was pissed that Eve's character was killed off. I lol'd at Lil Muffin suddenly deciding to become a lawyer (though they'll need one I guess).

I love how they are tackling the #MeToo injustice in the music industry. Love the idea of the record label too!

the pace needs to slow down.

I don't care about any of the characters because we haven't had time to know them yet.

[DemetriKane]

They could find a nice balance for the pacing; but the fast pace is one of the things I liked about the show.  I honestly care for a lot of the characters including Remy ma whose only been in 2 episodes. Idk if I agree about them burning through plots; most of the plots they started with are still lingering around  i.e. Jill struggles with her sexuality and the church.  I believe Eve going on leave made them change a few story directions.

Queens surprised me. It was better than "Our Kind Of People" and less trashy than "Empire". I do think the pacing needs to slow down. Modern primetime soaps move too quick, but I do understand the need to hook people by making a throw-everything-in-there pilot episode.

And I believe they're only doing 13 episodes.

Robin Givens is an awful actress.

[DemetriKane]

I didn't mind Robin here. She was pretty good imo. Well I didn't hate her like most of you did on "Ambitious ". This was one of my favorite episodes,  they slowed things down and the writing felt more focused and intimate.  Looking forward to them test results.

Episode 13 functioned as a series finale with all loose ends tied up.

[DemetriKane]

Yes, Zahir had to play it safe. Overall I enjoyed this show. Rooting for them to return for another season. That's a wrap folks........
