Anastasia and her granddaughter ate up Nicole and Samantha today.

Joey sucking up to the child of the man he had murdered was gross. Can this secret come out already. I really don’t need it waiting until year 3.

I also like Mona and adore the actress who plays her. And you're also right, we need to see Mona much more often, as we did in the show's first year. I've noticed we no longer see the little breakfast meetings of the have-nots at Orphie Jean's, which included Mona. I don't think we're seen those characters together since December or January, and we used to see them gathered around the table at least once a month -- perhaps more. Regarding the religious stuff -- I have no problem with Mona being a woman of faith but, these days, she is laying it on way too thick to be believable. In the real world, a person that obsessed with religion would have no friends, no romantic life, and likely would have driven away her family too. They are turning Mona into a joke, and it smacks of anti-religious sentiment. The writers need to tone-down Mona's religious rhetoric quickly. Why can't she just be a normal woman of faith?

Mona is exactly like a lot of bible thumpers, she's written in character. People like her are the reason why people despise structured religion. She needs to teach by example, not by lecturing nor judging.

Nicole did not read Anastacia well enough. She called her granddaughter all sorts of names and she did not have a good enough come back. Meanwhile, Samantha just Chessy walk all over her without even trying to adequately defend herself. This is where the writers should be utilizing Kat's nasty attitude instead of having her in pointless dust ups with Eva.

Vanessa overstepped prying into Heather's wearabouts, but I was glad that Joey snapped at her because she deserves everyone talking down to her.

Samantha is an ungrateful and I'm glad someone on the show talked down to this entitled brat. How someone as sweet and whimsical as June could produce such a vile individual makes me curious to know who the father is.

Vanessa is displaying all the toxic traits that people say men have, and if men can't do it. .neither can an entitled sex addict like Vanessa either. She obviously doesn't understand nor respect boundaires... because if she did, she would have done a better job honoring her marriage vows or divorcing Doug before she ventured out into the hook up world (like her bestie Nicole has done.. divorced and now just enjoying her newfound status as a free agent).

Agree re Mona. To have her turn up after so long and play the exact same scene with Randy as she did last time.

What's the point?

She isn't on often enough to have any value. Apparently she works for Nicole but we never see them together.

I get she's non contract but she's basically non existent.

😂🤣 We can always count on hearing that the Jamey Giddens breakdown is awful -- but always saved by the incredible script writer!

It’s such a slap in the face to Michele Val Jean to praise every single writer except Jamey. Michele reads, edits and approves every single breakdown. We know that this person hates Jamey for whatever reason. Jamey will never write an acceptable breakdown in that person’s opinion but somehow his breakdowns get approved by the showrunner. Imagine that. 🤣😆

it’s getting old… don’t know their backstory, don’t care.

Speaking as someone who hates Jamey Giddens just as much, I understand.

It can get very annoying when you’re constantly seeing work from someone who’s more concerned with writing everything and everyone like a big stupid joke, or ripping off The Real Housewives or ripping off another soap writer’s work and calling it an Easter egg. To me, that’s just laziness.

He did the same stuff on Days. And just like with Days, it may be funny the first time but after the 450th time, it just isn’t anymore.

As for the criticism being a slap in the face to Michele Van Jean… guess that means I was slapping the holy hell out of Ron Carlivati for 4 years 😂😂😂

I cant stand Mona's judgemental and holier than thou azz. Definitely did not miss her
