[Hollywood Houselift With Jeff Lewis - General Discussion]

Fortune is definitely also not D list celebrity. Even if she’s not mainstream, she’s made a name for herself in standup. 
 

oh, and those ARE Jeff’s natural lips. His addressed it several times. He’s pretty vocal about the work his had done (and will have done). 

[S03.E07: Strip for the Tip]

Am I the only one who forgets there is a female deckhand until they randomly show her? Then I’m like “oh, yeah- she’s there, too”. 

[S06.E06: The Morning After]

Was anyone else surprised that the Chief Officer (or whoever that was) waited until Sandy woke up the next morning to tell her that her Chef left?  Isn’t that something the Captain should know ASAP?  I found that odd. 

And, as someone who lost her dad around the same age as Lexi is now, I don’t feel sorry for her or excuse her behavior. Yes, I am sorry she lost her dad. I know how terrible that is, but if it is impacting your emotions and behavior towards others, maybe jetting off to be on a reality show isn’t the best decision. Unless you are a vial, fame seeking, attention whore with or without a dad. 
 

 

[S01.E10: Hostile Witness]

Overall I’m pleased. It was a guilty pleasure so some of the things that would normally bother me, didn’t. EXCEPT for the Dallas skyline at the end. I wish they would have edited out the things that wouldn’t have been there in the mid nineties. I don’t know why it bugged me so much, but it did. 

[S12.E17: Back on the Hump]

Ramona walking the beach with her giant hat draped over her belly... 

 

but I guess walking next to Lu, I’d be hiding my belly, too

Probably a UO, but Malia getting one little compliment and crying in front of her "boys" was not a good look.

I thought the same thing. 

[S12.E10: Something's Brewing]

I haven't made it through all the pages of comments yet, and just got to watch this morning, so forgive me if I am repeating here.  But 2 things for me stand out:

First, I have no problem with the age of the women flirting.  To me, it's just the rudeness that is shown to the other women.  It's constant with Romana.   Her level of self importance is disgusting.   She can't go into a restaurant without working a room.   She can't host guests in her home without leaving to attend a more "important" party.  She thinks herself quite the Socialite.

Second, I am not trying to defend Dorinda, but to me it seems her annoyance is with the fact that Tinsley signed up to be on a reality show yet she is trying to have 2 separate lives.  A gross, emotionally stunted, Barbie Doll behavior life and a separate personal/private one.  It's not what she signed up to do.  If Scott doesn't want to have a relationship on the show, and she wants a relationship with him, she needs to leave the show.    Yes, the girls found out about John from page 6, but Dorinda hasn't kept quiet about it.

I wonder if the vomit inducing white privilege I heard Jeff spew on Monday without even giving basic lip service to mention the murder of George Floyd was was just his sarcasm/self deprecating humor.

 I wasn’t cool with that, either. So....  

I don’t always agree and side with him. At all. But I can tell you that I listen every single day. So I still stand by the fact that I feel he is usually pretty self aware. But I think he was wrong on Monday. 
 

So I am not sure if that was a dig towards me, him, or both of us.  But since you don’t know me at all, I will assume it was only towards him. Who you do know well.

I LOOOOOOVE his talk show. I also skip the shows with Dr Donna. And thank god him and Pattie had a slight falling out (even though he says they're fine now.) i don't think she'll be back.

And I think him and Scott are back together. He keeps mentioning that they've been doing things together.  Although I'm not sure it's a great fit because Scott doesn't seem to communicate very well when he's upset about something. 

Cracks me up when people come and post a 'juicy' story about Jeff and say how terrible he is. 99% of the time it's him making fun of himself ON the talk show.  

I HATE Dr. Donna and the Patti shows.  Good riddance to Patti!  And I totally agree.  Most of the time he is being an asshole, he is being sarcastic.   I actually think he is pretty self aware and honest regarding his faults.

Glad to know you are also one of his 12 listeners!!  haha

Oddly, it makes me so happy that someone else gets Jeffrey. I adore everything about him, all his moods and his ridiculous humor. I also have a thing for Chris Plante so I guess I have a type.  I would like to be in his orbit just so I could be one of the characters in his life. I am sure he would find something to either like or dislike about me and blow it all out of proportion, which would be funny as heck to me. 

I don't have a clue how to listen to his show but would love too do that on the regular. Maybe I should check his twitter and see if there is a link. 

As far as Jenni, her actions were the catalyst in breaking up that friendship. I hope they patch it up but she would need to admit that her blaming him for her lack of a career was not valid. I also hold out hope that he and Gage will one day reunite. 

I really miss seeing him on tv and wish he would be able to come up with something to get back on my screen.

Do you have Sirius XM?  I think that's the only way you can listen.  He's on 4 days a week but there is a change.org petition to go 5 days.   I unapologetically love him.  He makes me laugh out loud every day.

I have also occasionally listened to his show and find him the same self-involved narcissist he always has been.

Here's the thing, I listen every day (it's my entertainment at the gym).  Most of his narcissistic comments are usually a joke.  He makes fun of himself a lot.    He really doesn't seem to take himself too seriously.  If you are an occasional viewer or listener, it can come across as totally serious.   I actually find it refreshing that he knows his flaws and takes 100% ownership.   But again, just my opinion.  I know he gets a lot of hate which is odd to me.  If he's not your cup of tea, don't watch or listen.  For me, I look forward to most of his shows (except when Dr. Donna or that Millionaire Matchmatcher chic used to be on).

[Flipping Out - General Discussion]

I am going to speak out in support of Jeff on this one. As an avid listener to his radio show, he really seems to be more self-aware.   And it sounds like Scott was the one having a really hard time with the quarantine.   Making assumptions based on the tv show isn't fair.  In my opinion.  

[The Great - General Discussion]

You know, I really like it.  Even if it is not historically accurate.  And I like the nod to the horse rumor. I also like the reference to playing with toy soldiers.  So I am enjoying it.

[S10.E05: Let the Mouse Go!]

I can't believe I am saying this (because she has grated on my last nerve so far this season), but Sutton for the win in this episode. She did nothing wrong.  She had a thought that freaked her the fuck out, whispered it to the closest person... unfortunately, that person was Dorit.   I do not for one second believe she would have ruined anything or caused a scene.  But ponytail saw a good "in" for this episode.  I fucking hate Dorit.  

I am not sure if I can with this season.  If we are going to look for a fight, I can just focus on my own household right now ( I mean, the CHEWING!).

[S08.E16: Witches of Weho Whine]

This is officially the most checked out and uninterested I have ever been in an episode of VR.  It gave me nothing of interest. 

[Meghan King Edmonds: Third Wife's a Charm]

I came here to see if anyone else was disturbed by her TikTok videos??? 
 

I don’t get it. They’re concerning. IMHO

[Cheer - General Discussion]

Disclaimer- I worked for NCA for many years. First as an instructor then later in the corporate office. I came up with Brad (the Cheer Athletics owner featured).  I loved my time there and still treasure the friendships. I cheered at a D1 school- albeit 20 years ago. I am amazed at how the sport has progressed. I would never make the team today!  
 

I  get so frustrated with most cheer shows and was skeptical when I heard this was coming.  But man, this hit the mark. I love how so many non-cheer folks have also enjoyed it.  I especially think that if you are ANY type of coach or athlete, this can speak to you on so many levels. 
 

2 things to add: one of our seniors (I am a teacher and school cheer coach) tried out for Navarro on Monday. They are having several open tryout days, so he won’t find out for a bit. He said that all of the “cast” was there, even Gabi.  But it makes sense because they were probably running through the Ellen routine on the 3 day weekend. He said everyone was pretty talented but was surprised how many girls who “base” showed up. Navarro being coed, there’s not much chance of them making it. 
 

As for filming and footage, it has pretty much always been the practice at NCA to not allow outside camera crews. Besides, the Daytona venue is tight. It would have been disrespectful and distracting to others competing. But I do know for a fact that the crew was given the Varsity footage but decided not to use it for some reason. 
 

 

[S01.E04: Rallying to Keep the Game Alive]

This one hit close to home for me. I am living a version of this currently, so I could relate to a lot of it. But if not for that, I can see where it fell flat for many.  Knowing the actors, I expected this episode to deliver more.  I’ll keep going with the series, but it’s not a binge-worthy one for me. 

[S01.E01: When the Doorman Is Your Main Man]

I am a bit late to the game on this. I finished “You” and was looking for something to binge before school starts again. 
 

Add me to the list of criers. And I never cry. I was so worried he was going to die before she made it back to NY.  Touching story and wonderful acting from the both of them!

I'm too thrifty--as they are all sitting around waiting for the bus for what seemed like hours, I kept looking at the two six-packs sitting out and wondering if they were just going to leave them there--can't take them on the plane unless they squeeze them into the checked baggage--maybe they were going to drink them on the long bus ride?  But they were sitting out, room temp!

 

Same!  And they were 90 Schilling which is one of my favorites to drink while in CO.  Seeing them sit there was stressing me out!

So... Wasn't Madison the one that beckoned Shep over to start the argument in the first place? She was on the couch and he was at the bar minding his business? I'm not defending the douche bag, I'm just making sure I have the sequence of events right. Then she tells him that she can out argue him which hell yea- please (someone put that asshole in his place)! Next she decides to throw Danni under the bus. Of all the things she could have said to Shep she decides that is her ammo? And then she continues to throw Danni further under the bus by calling her out on her smoking habit? I mean, WTF? How does this prove to Shep that you won't take his shit? All it does is prove Shep even more right about what an asshole you are. I wish there was one damn person on this cast who could hand Shep his ass on a platter. Why is it so damn hard?

And everything after the spa scene was weird. They came home and packed and then just sat around for hours asking if everyone was ready? Were they just going to show up at the airport whenever and catch a flight or did they have a scheduled flight? It seems like there was a lot of hours just sitting around. What a lame trip. 

This!  I came out of lurking to post just this.  I am no fan of Shep, but she called him over to her to make her laugh because she was depressed.  Knowing damn well she was starting something with him because he doesn't want the two of them together.  In my opinion, she started it.  And in no way did Danni deserve to have that information out there.  I think it showed exactly who Madisin is.  And by the way, that's not winning an argument.  There was nothing smart or intellectual about being that mean.  If she wanted to outwit Shep, she failed.

Seriously!! What was that on her neck? I didn’t hear a word she said at lunch.  All I could do was stare at that mark,cut/burn??!

1: I 100 percent believe James screws around. But....

2: who in the Hell of a right mind would find that disgusting cigarette butt attractive?

[S10.E17: Ship Happens]

That was quite the shit show.  Pun intended.  Very hard to watch.

[S13.E02: One Apology, Another Betrayal]

I believe I heard on Radio Andy (I think on Jeff Lewis' show) that the original reason Gina's husband wasn't shown or filmed was due to his employer.  

[S05.E14: Ho, Ho, Ho 2018.07.12]

This is my theory on Craig and Naomi.  He admitted that he is a liar.  He showed in his scene with Cameron that he can't stick with one thing.  He can't even commit to a pillow.  I think that he had Naomi snowed.  She loved him and believed in him.  Yes, she's shown that she can be a hella stalker and a bit crazy, but who here hasn't.  I sure as hell have had my moments where I went a bit cuckoo over an ex.  I believe that although she doesn't want to be with him, she is still having a hard time with the break up.  She spent years believing his bullshit.  Yet he is still this lovable goof to everyone.  It has to be exhausting to witness.

Or.... she's just a horrible person and I am totally wrong.
