Yesss! I cackled when Dr. Wilkes told Leslie to Google him (check my credentials).

What is Elon's issue with Izaiah again? Considering we are supposed to believe that Izaiah was some troubled youth, why wouldn't Elon be gald his son has seemed to mature and has a job at a great school. I get that family wounds and patterns can run deep, and somehow Joey was a paternal figure to Izaiah but Izaiah's troubles seem behind him.

Vernon was spotted by the worst person possible. Leslie is definitely going to use that to her advantage somehow.

I've watched the show faithfully since the premiere, but I've found that I've let myself fall behind the past few weeks. It sort of feels like nothing is happening again. Does anyone else feel the same way? I would think for November sweeps they'd be pulling out all the stops.

Will concede it's moving along slowly, but I am still hinged on every word every second. I refuse to miss anything. 

OTOH, I watch GH were things are moving along  little quicker, but I have to FF certain scenes because it's extremely repetitive, where I don't get that from BTG. 

[GLATWT88]

Yes! I actually started typing something up the other day but ended up not posting. It pretty much said something to the effect of the show feeling like there were a lot of balls in the air, the stories almost felt aimless. I am sure most of these will come to a head soon enough. I also wondered if it had something to do with the changes behind the scenes, but these lulls between major moments truly kill the momentum.

P.S. Just came back from a concert. Pressing play on the new episode. I hope it's goooood.

May I ask who you went to see. It wasn't an Articulette Reunion tour by chance?

GET THAT HEFFA, NOSY NURSE!!!

 

I'm sorry to see Smitty and June coming to a middle ground. It seem like that tension would be between them for at least one more story arc. A writing change?

 

I'm sorry but I love the teen unit of Ty, Samantha, and Jessica (and Rocco, Danny, Charlotte over on GH which is what today is reminding me of). I'm a sucker for soap teens. lol.

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!!!

-- 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.

Do not apologize for this.

I was thinking just today it's bringing me fond memories of when I was a teen of Angie and Jessie. Jenny and Greg, Philip and Beth. And although they were teens, Steve and Betsy. 

I like a good teen story.

Who is monitoring her spending?

Maybe the upshot is that Leslie is spending way beyond her means and she'll end up broke again. The house will be repossessed etc,

Part of her comeuppance.
