BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

[wonderwoman1951]

redundant, tiresome, and annoying. actually muted their scenes. 

re the characters interacting: this was setting the scene for kat to find them. seems like plot-driven character unless making ted look like a naive idiot is the idea.

Really frustrating show today:

-- I agree with others that Leslie has made far too many visits to Ted's hotel room. Why would he entertain a thing she said?

-- More plot convenience: Kat walking in Ted's hotel room without knocking just so she can catch them having some contact.

-- I don't mind Jacob and Kat confronting Mona, but they'd better get to Shanice in a New York minute.

-- In no universe was Dani the victor in those scenes with Hayley and Bill. She made a complete fool of herself -- again. She had a couple good lines, but they were lost because she's already lost the plot. Breaking into someone's house will not garner sympathy for her.

-- Even if Hayley isn't pregnant, Dani will never be the winner in those scenes. Why not let the months ahead take care of that?

-- Dani pulled her "I'm a Dupree" at Uptown, and it was as obnoxious as it sounds.

-- I never thought that back room was the full casino. Regardless, it's always looked cheap and ugly.

-- Vanessa is for the streets. I'm sorry, the woman is trash.

-- Do I want to see Joey and Vanessa having sex on a poker table in a back room at a casino? I do not.

-- Actually, I don't want to see Joey and Vanessa having sex anywhere.

I haven't seen today's episode yet, but people on Facebook who have the Canadian feed have posted clips of Friday's episode, plus the video preview for next week.

I'm not a happy camper.

I really hope they fix this soon.

Dani and Doug interacted for the first time I believe. Could that be indicator that they will hookup? As wacky and drama filled as Dani is I think she'd have a lot more respect for Doug than Vanessa does and Vanessa really needs a dose of her own medicine.

[DemetriKane]

They have renewed my interest back into Hayley. I hope they keep writing her like today. She was fun and looked fabulous.

Facts on top of facts! And that is the area that I want them to deep dive into more. 

I forget what her purpose was for even visiting him at this point. Leslie had a great May but she can not do more of the same in June and July.

I became very excited to see them interact. I don't know where it is going, but it could be a joy to watch. 

[Rmodelboy]

They interacted before when Dani and Pamela were at the casino. 

[Gatecrashers]

I think Doug needs to get his own sidepiece, but not Dani. Dani is only tolerable with Andre (and her daughter Chelsea), so let's keep her there.

How about Shanice? She seems like she really cares about him as a person.

[BoldRestless]

I was cracking up at how Silk Press tried to hump Not Ted's leg as soon as Kat walked in, but her cackling at the end is getting OTT.

[ReddFoxx]

It seems like it was tested with all the concern she showed him. Obviously Dani would create a lot more conflict because her sister is Vanessa's best friend, but on the other hand Vanessa could pull the socio-economic class card on Shanice which would make for good conflict.

[Soapsuds]

That could apply to Dani too, and Leslie looking at herself in the mirror being crazy. The gambling scenes were pure fast-forward material.

 

The best part of the show was seeing Mona.

 

BTG is slowly becoming background noise when I watch it.

[Forever8]

I'm still hoping that Leslie turns out to be Sharon's daughter. As I think it could bring another dynamic to the show and the Duprees eventually will need a rival family.

I said Dorian Harewood on Twitter would be good for Dante Green too.

they're copying Sheila Carter with the laugh and it's annoying AF when Sheila does it too
