One thing I am curious about. When Keith was talking about how a friend of the family took the kids in after Scott was arrested, Keith made an aside comment that the woman was adopted as well. As well as who? It was never mentioned (at least that I heard) that Susann was adopted. Does that mean that the twins were not Susann's biologically? They made it sound like she had them through IVF, but then who was Keith referring to as being adopted?

A few responders already beat me to it with comparisons to Sean's mother. Mrs. Tommy needs a kick in the you-know-where. Maybe several. With all her 3rd person references to herself as "Mommy" this is reminiscent of "The Jimmy" from Seinfeld.

Yeah, my mom and I found that really weird as well. I could perhaps, on a general level, understand someone being so panicked in a moment like that, to where their mind goes blank on that stuff, even when they've been trained in it, but he clearly wasn't sounding panicked on the phone and seemed very calm and controlled, so ..

Being from Staten Island, do you watch the Jersey Housewives? We have relatives on Staten Island still. We all tawk the same, lol.

TLC is all about the money. They will broadcast as long as people watch and vendors will pay for commercials, tragedies notwithstanding.

I have no doubt whatsoever that the doctor murdered his wife. Nothing whatsoever to me points to a fall down the stairs. The good doctor tried to make it look like a fall, complete with putting Susann's purse and an empty pill bottle at the bottom of the stairs. But Susann had a therapeutic amount of pain killer in her system, not enough to cause her to fall. And why would she have her purse and an empty pill bottle with her? Also why would she be wearing clunky dress shoes in the middle of the night, to walk from an upstairs bedroom to downstairs? Personally I would be either barefoot, in socks or slippers. Certainly not barefoot but wearing clunky dress shoes, in the middle of the night. And certainly if I felt unsteady, I wouldn't be wearing a shoe with a heel. In the middle of the freaking night. I also think the pot at the bottom of the stairs was staged. Why would Susann have Scott's blood under her fingernails, if she fell down the stairs? Or be wearing a scarf with Scott's blood on it? Not to mention all the blood and hair in the bedroom? Also Scott wearing the beanie the whole day until he was asked to remove it for pictures. He claimed that he got the gash on his upper forehead from working on a car with his son a few days earlier. But it was obvious that the wound was fresh, and filled with dried blood. Not believable that any person, let alone a doctor, would not clean and dress a wound when it happened, not leave it for days afterwards uncleaned and undressed, and cover it with a beanie. I wish the prosecutors had asked the son, when he changed his story to not hearing his parents fight in the middle of the night, why he chose then to sleep with his sister in his parents' bedroom? (He told the police originally it was because of the noise of hearing his parents fight). Obviously he was lying, and did not care that he was under oath. So many reasons why I think the dr is guilty. I would have had no qualms about convicting him, but would have chosen second degree as well.

I'd wondered about that, too, yeah! I'd like to hear more about how the version with Nigel breaking things off might've gone. I also have to laugh at how Jones' reaction to Isaac being taken by Patience is basically, "No, yeah, that's fair, he deserves it." XD.

Intriguing that in one of the interviews with Brandon Scott Jones, he said there was more than one version of the wedding scene because they hadn't yet determined who was going to leave whom at the altar. I'd be interested to know what the writers would have thought of as Nigel's justification for calling it off. The only thing I can think of is that he'd have sensed Isaac's hesitance and wouldn't want to marry someone who wasn't as committed as he was. But I think they went the right way by having Isaac do it.

Lame but things are even lamer with Candace. That women just bugs.

I would agree with you as far as "The Gentlemen" the movie vs. the tv series goes. On the other hand, "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" has it all, as far as I am concerned...give it a try!

I got a really good laugh out of the bit during the episode where the detectives interviewed that woman who started talking with the doctor, and then they met up in the hopes of haivng a romatnci encounter, and she was going on about how he had no game. She talked at one point about how he talked about how his wife was sending photos to other people, and she was like, "I didn't think she could do that, though, she seemed like a nice woman." And I'm sitting here thinking, "....as opposed to you, I guess, a woman who's going to meet up with this doctor to have a romantci encounter?" :p. Just, her attitude about the idea of his wife having an affair while she's about to potentially start up one with him amused me :p. The story from the woman who met with him for fertility treatments that went awry was pretty unsetlling. Especially when she talked about how angry he started getting with her when she was taking issue with his treatments. Was it just me who found it a bit odd that his daughter was in the same room with him the night his wife died? My mom was struck by the way he kept going on about how he thought any noise would've just been the kids, 'cause she was like, "...except one of your kids was in the room with you that night, so you would've been aware if she'd gotten up and gone somewhere." Plus, you live with people long enough, you become familiar with their footsteps. He would've been able to tell the difference between his kids getting up and wandering around versus his wife getting up and wandering around. But yeah, agreed with everyone else on the verdict. They had a fight that, as his daughter herself noted, got pretty heated, and it ended with him killing her.

Don't forget, "You got that!"

The Curse of Risotto lives on!

I am way behind, just making my way through Dulce's week. I loved Josh describing what a jury representing NYC would consist of, and the way he and Dulce cracked up over the suggesting Trump might actually face some consequences. Also Dulce explaining all the trials this isn't, and the one it is ("This is the most complicated plot a porn star has ever been involved in"), concluding with he treats criminal charges like Pokeman, trying to catch all of them. John Leguizamo taking a break to beat the shit out of a piñata before continuing when he had to say more Latin voters support Trump than Biden was fun. Jordan doing his usual job letting the MAGA crowd talk themselves into nonsensical corners (I love the guy who said Trump can't get a fair trial in NY, it would have to take place in the Midwest or the South, immediately declaring "No" when Jordan asked if he'd then accept as valid convictions in the GA or FL trials). I left off just as Dulce was introducing the story about Black-owned wineries; good stuff so far. I am beyond thrilled to read I have a Jessica Williams appearance to look forward to; she was my favorite correspondent back in her day.

So, has James finally met his match? I sure hope not if it's Yogesh.

His mother is insane. She is killing him. A normal meal? Really? Fast food is normal?

I like Bryan. I remember when Sara hired a designer to work on their house. Then all of a sudden, she became a designer. 🙄

That was very strange.

Same in the neighborhood I grew up in on Staten Island. It started as backyard barbecues, and graduated to block parties. The fire and police departments would come with vehicles. It was fun for all ages.

Judge looked calm. He must have just said the magic word to the ump. I was shocked that he was tossed. The crowd at YS was definitely NOT happy.

I noticed that Ariana and Katie clarified that they needed to decide what Penny might merit at this location. Maybe it will be like The Agency, locations everywhere, global expansion.

Called 3rd strike.

Curious . . . what got Judge “disbarred”?
