OMG! This woman is cray cray!!! Oops. Here comes Jacob.

 

Andre continues to be so...mature and/or chill for the show's playboy.

 

OH...a Naomi/Derek scene.

 

HAHAHAHA! Not a Nicole word! And #preach at Pamela about today's dating scene. And OMG at the kiss with Bill's reaction.

I was out of town so I just got to Monday and Tuesdays episodes. I was nervous because of the comments I read here (particularly about Monday) but I enjoyed both episodes. I didn't find Monday to be slow and although I am Derek's biggest hater, I actually didn't mind him. For one, I'm happy the story is finally moving and I feel like if they play him as a doofus it kinda works. 

Dani/Andre continue to be a highlight for me so more of them was a positive. I've also been enjoying the Vanessa/Doug storyline develop. I really don't have any complaints as far as Monday goes.

Now Tuesday was another hit. The Leslie/Laura scenes were a menacing delight. I love that Leslie seems so fearless. Of course this is going to catch up to her and blow up in her face but you cannot make that woman sweat. To live in such a world of delusion must be nice.

Looks like Thursday May 15 through Wed. May 21 (episodes 53-57) are all one "Fairmont day".  Still the same day as debut of nuTed.  Today Wednesday ends with everyone going to sleep, so I assume tomorrow Thurs. May 22 will be a new day.

Edit to add:
I guess I might watch all five episodes in a row, and hopefully the Ashley/Derek nonsense and the Joey nonsense -- will feel less annoying to me if it's only part of the long Fairmont day.  I will focus instead on Ted, Eva, Laura, Kat, Jacob, Leslie, Chelsea, and Doug/Vanessa.

How are we 50+ episodes in and Hayley has had little to no independent character development? She started off as one of the show's heavy hitters in the first couple of weeks due to storyline but has faded into the background more and more every subsequent week. They've made no effort to integrate the character into the canvas outside of being Bill's "child bride." It's really bothering me because I like the actress and I think she has potential. Can she get a friend or at least scenes without Bill?

I'm now at the point where I like Derek more than Ashley. That's how bad things have gotten with her. The actress isn't terrible but she isn't very good either and the writing for her been abysmal.

Chelsea and Dani's scene was just fantastic.  I was instantly reminded of my own coming out to my mother. Karla and RhonniRose gave me all the feels. Just wonderful.

 

Im kinda glad that the show has kept Andre and Ashley as friends and didnt take it there while she was sad about Derek.

Leslie is such a damn menace and Im eating it up. I read that the show is looking to cast her mother. I hope they cast someone as delicious as Tricia is.

Poor Chelsea... having Bill and Dani for parents has to suck.  And while the acting during the Chelsea/Dani scene was good (Karla, for once dialing it back)... I still view it as Dani making it all about her.  Narcissists like Dani will never change
