Last season, did Rachel tell them in the car that James raged during the holidays and body-shamed her mother? I suppose he’s thinking he dodged yet another bullet, since Ally Bally’s mother is slim. James’s rapping skillz strike again: he called their cat Mr. Bister, I believe.

So I just watched today's shitfest and, wow. Waynto go Chels and Adam making it alll about you! Thst was a master class in NPD right there folks, and nitnone but TWO parents! Lucky Connor! "It's because he thought his dad was dead. Then I came back and traumatized him!" "No! It's Meeeeeee! Its because of MEEEEEEEEE and my rooftop escapades!" Jesus H Christ on a cracker! OMG, I wanted to throw something at my TV. And that little PSA at the end? I think it's seriously inappropriate to have an underage child talking about mental health issues like that. WTFH is wrong with Josh and TIIC?!?

The Amazing “let’s work together because we can’t complete tasks on our own” Race 👎

Some of the retirements had caught me by surprise but with news of the show, I wonder if that ties in at all. Go out on a high, hated it, be free to capitalize on any opportunities that arise, etc. Or maybe not, lol.

The sperm looked like tadpoles. How many VPR viewers asked their tall male friends, “Didn’t you tell me that your favorite song is Grown Ocean?”

I'm sure Eric M submitted his scenes with Stacy and Finley (Rachel), I can see how they would score him the nomination. I'm guessing Tamara may have submitted the Bayview scenes, or the attempted rape scene. While a surprise Tamara is always good. I think Ari is 100% the snub here, but I'm not surprised. Most people don't get nominated while simultaneously suing their show ( production company). Unfortunate

I didn't listen to Jeremy because, torture. And as most of you I would find living with him even worse. But Jinger continues to impress me. She managed to start shaking off her childhood right out of the gate and hasn't stopped yet. She has taken each step with tact and diplomacy. It seems sharing her growth has nothing to do with revenge, but more to do with showing how she was able to get to a place of recognizing that the world independent of the Duggar mindset was not so scary and not so evil. Sure the Vuolos are still uber Fundy and live and play among a more wealthy community, one that Jeremy embraces to the nth degree, but the Vuolo girls are living a relatively mainstream life which is a healthier environment than their cousins.

Exactly ! I might still be standing there because of that ! 😛 Oh Angie, toughen up.

There were so many scenes backstage of the women gearing themselves up to be deliberately combative. Before the last session either Emily or Clare (can't remember which) told the other one something like "This is the last time, just keep fighting." And I thought, what or who are you fighting? And why? They very clearly were only there to fight and win some kind of perceived battle between them and the men. Just let it go already! By the end of that last session, I definitely think Lauren was starting to clue in, when she said just let them get 10 words in already. I think Emily and Clare are the main instigators of this, and Becca is just a follower, letting herself be dragged down with them. I also caught a clip from the where are they now preview of Chloe talking to Brennan and Cam (I think it was) and she says "These women do not want to heal" followed by a clip of Emily, Clare, and Becca together and Emily says something like "Sometimes it's good to have some hate". Seems like maybe Chloe tried to keep in touch with them in some way but they have no interest in letting go of their grievances, so she's out. I'm genuinely intrigued to learn more. I thought it was kind of hilarious when Cam was trying to tell the story of the "double date" situation and Clare went into (what seemed to me to be) performative crying, and Cam was like "should I continue?" Lol. And then Brennan tried to pick up the story, and Emily followed suit and it was both Clare and Emily in full-on performative histrionics. Hahaha. What a complete train wreck those two are. I don't really trust Cam, but I think what Brennan was finally allowed to get out about the "double date" story (short and sweet as he promised) was way more believable to me than whatever the women got into their head about it. Last thing, when Emily made her comment about her being an 8.5 and Brennan being a 6 who nobody would hit in on a bar or whatever, Brennan's reaction was definitely one of "here we go again". I think he must have gotten a lot of this side of Emily behind the scenes, where she just refused to acknowledge or believe anything he said to her off camera. I don't particularly like Brennan either, but after this, I would hang out with him a million times before I would spend any time with Emily.

Danielle has turned into a little horndog, and no, I'm not slut shaming her. She just seems super uninhibited since her breakup with her fiancé. And I just want to say I don't blame balloon guy for showing more interest in her than Gabby. Gabby acts so stuck up and doesn't know how to flirt and be more engaging. It was cringeworthy seeing her interaction with him.

Which is the worst? -Sandoval’s “singing” -Sandoval’s “dancing” -Sandoval’s “crying”

I was thinking the same thing, particularly when Manny mentioned the cost of just one of his ingredients- the beef. The team needs to take into consideration that the meat and fish portions may need extra money. And, it wasn't okay for Danny to get only $75 and just say, "We'll help you out." They should have reevaluated right then and there. Hopefully, they have learned something about budget before doing additional team challenges or Restaurant Wars. I remember during the last team challenge, one team had a better plan for purchasing ingredients- they cross checked ahead of time who had duplicate ingredients and made sure only one person bought them.

I was more focused on how much of an ex-boyfriend the ex-boyfriend/father of the younger two was and whether or not he was in the picture at all, considering how she portrayed a clear division versus the three older children that weren't coming with her and the two younger ones that were.

Yes, Cal is IN! Go Bears!

So Ariana is justifiably boasting that Tom should have agreed that they both needed to sell the house back in March 2023. Ariana would have been out of the house a long time ago. But it does seem that she and her lawyer took their sweet time sending a counteroffer, no? I have no idea what interest rates were back in March, compared to August.

I pegged Fred Armisen and Eugene Mirman immediately but not Mark McKinney, which I should have since peach was essentially his Chicken Lady voice. Another horrifying story. So glad that kid with cerebral palsy got his Medicaid back but what in the ever living fuck? I'm so sick of out of touch politicians believing they get to handpick who's deserving of health care.

U of Oklahoma got knocked out in the semi-finals today--they had a really bad vault rotation and then almost as bad a beam rotation. I don't think they've lost a meet all season. The final is Saturday--LSU, U of Florida, U of Utah and I think Cal? I think it's LSU's to lose. (Shallow night--Ragan Smith needs to lay off the self-tanner. She was literally orange.)

I was actually trying to figure out who they would submit for last year other than Mo. Donnell is supporting. I guess Cameron but even Braedan could out act him among the nominees. The only person even worthy of this cast in the last several years was Jon Lindstrom for the Ryan return story. In any event, Mo did not have the material in 2023. Good for Cynthia and Finola though neither had material to compare to their previous wins in the category.

Wow. I mean ... OMG. Wow. Fantastic episode. Just so much packed into it that I have so much to say that my commenter is just jammed stuck. Everybody was awesome, every character had a moment, the writers deserve a raise and awards, Rebecca Wisocky knocked it outta the park, but everyone else was a rising tide that lifted that boat so give 'em all Emmys, but make Rebecca's bigger for this ep. This is so my favorite show.

Yep. Either she'll show up or there'll be some flashback to when he married her or something of that sort, as a compare/contrast sort of thing.

Do we think that Ann labeled all of the Ariana boxes, dotting the Is with ❤️s?

What the hell - just made the reservation at Kann! Good luck with Soo's restaurant, @buttersister

Yeah it's inconsistent. We've seen seasons where there are deckhands constantly in the kitchen, washing dishes if nothing else. Or what about BDSY, Colin was in the kitchen almost the whole season one year, not just washing dishes but doing sous-chef work, like prepping some ingredients or something. So it seems like a choice whether to help the chef or not. As someone pointed out, usually on big yachts, there's a crew of several chefs, not one trying to scramble and please every guest. We all know the preference sheets are massaged by the producers. In this charter, these are fast food people and they just put up generalities like "no seafood" and "no vegetables." A chef might find people who aren't interested in trying new things to be stifling. But on this show, they're expected to come up with dishes with florid descriptions and Bon Appetit plating. So Anthony made fancy ceviches for people who just want a Big Mac. If that's not a setup, what is?

Loving this current storyline and loving the addition of Randall. To me, this is the best of the three L&O shows and I'm gonna be super pissed if it's not renewed.

So would I. Every day.
