  1.  

    Abby and Ben continue to annoy with their dull and insipid romance and meaningless existence and I love how Abby is slowly becoming uninterested in Ben now that Chad's looking her way.  My, what a stellar human being she is.

     

    Abby is about as loyal and faithful as her choices. Funny how Chad doesn't seem to be the devil incarnate to her anymore. 

     

    But how did this become the central question instead of "Will Sonny forgive Will for CHEATING ON HIM?".

    Same way that Abby was the poor victim of Sami's evil unprovoked revenge plans after Abby fucks Sami's fiance. 

     

     

    Shrewena looked like she wanted to strangle Parker. She's an idiot talking about how she can't just be walking around with the diamonds. Bitch put them in your bra, your panties, or even in your vagina,

    Ah the vagine... nature's pocket (tm Broad City)

  2. That may be but she should have thought about this before her liasons with the blow up mattress felon. She was an adult, she was a freaking lawyer so yes she should have thought about this beforehand. And tried birth control at the least.

    I get being lonely, I get hearing your clock tick but holy hell Phaedra having unprotected sex with that man was a bad bad decision even if you got the cute kids. Now they have this awful father who isn't part of their lives and that will haunt them and her for decades.

     

    I have no sympathy at all for her.

     

    Phae got dictimized, but you know what? She thought she put it on him that good too! Phae thought her cookie was so damn good that it could rehab a felon and make Apollo an exception to those recidivism stats. 

     

    Why did Bravo subject me to flashbacks of that gross scene of Apollo and Phae tonguing each other down? It was fast but damn, it is still burned in my brain!

     

    I think it's boring because we know they never resolve anything. Kenya has been saying she's moved on from the Apollo drama every time she's been on camera. Only to bring it up again and again and again. Next week, her and Phaedra are going to hug. The week after that they'll be fighting again.

     

    Hell, the season is over and they're all dragging each other on Twitter.

     

    It's silly for the producers to try and keep these conflicts going. They've run this show into the ground and it used to be my favorite.

     

    Which is why for all her stupidity, Porsha was spitting some real truth bombs at the "counselling" session.  No one ever moves forward. Ever. 

     

    That table read was cringe inducing. Cynthia Ja-faking accent? Gurlll.

  3. In general this was an odd episode. I wish we got more Daryl in the woods and less Peyton Place.

     

    Well, according to urban dictionary, Sam and Rick are both crazy for cookies, although Rick's is of a differing variety shall we say

     

     

    Cookie: the female genitalia, a nicer name for a p*&ssy

     

    While watching the show last night, I was half expecting a voice over to come on and say that the part of Shane is now being played by Rick Grimes, like they used to do back in the day for soaps when an actor was replaced. I felt this way especially when he barged into her living room and mentioned her boys. Shane always used the ability to protect Lori and the boys as manipulation using Rick's inability due to his lack of pragmatism and failure to adapt to the new walker world as a foil. 

     

    I don't dislike Jessie. I just wished the show gave me more of a reason to care about her outside Rick wanting some cookie. 

     

    Shallow note: I am glad we got to keep Deanna's hotter son. 

     

    It is so jarring to watch the crew being unable to find water to drink to seeing people closing their garage doors (was that really necessary?), using baby monitors, ovens and playing cds. 

     

    Her idea of taking care of herself seems to be letting another man take care of her.  Like Lori. 

    Rick obviously has a type - albatross.

  4. I love John Black and Drake for all the wrong reasons and I don't care. His interpretation of his character for the past 20 odd years is basically a Saturday Night Live sketch of everything that is bad and over the top about soap opera style acting and it gives me life. I love everything from the perma squint that looks it may have been caused by grapefruit juice being squirted into one eye to the Batman voice. 

     

    I am underwhelmed by Chad. I still think the actor is very good and has potential but the character lost what seems to be damn near all its momentum after EJ left the canvas.  He isn't written as intelligent or even self sufficient. Just a daddy's boy that is counting on daddy Steffy to come up with all the plans not only to get even with Kate (why because I don't remember Kate doing anything in particular to him) but also Abby. Come on now. Grow a pair!!

  5. So the elephant had diamonds in it? HA! Maybe the writers took that storyline out of The Great Chipmunk Adventure where the Chipmunks (Alvin, Simon, Theodore) and the Chipettes were on a race around the world and exchange little chipmunk/ettes dolls. Turns out there was money and diamonds in the dolls. That is the only laugh/joy I got out of the elephant story. I wish Parker had found the secret hideaway and exchanged the diamonds for legos.

    I've never seen that movie. The only thought that came to my mind was Blood Diamonds. Serena and Eric were in war torn Congo.

     

     

     

    Republic of the Congo

    The Republic of the Congo, despite having no official diamond mining industry, the country was exporting large quantities of diamonds, the origin of which it could not detail. It was also accused of falsifying certificates of origin. 

    Gross!

  6. For you Damon fans, he is alive and kicking. He is the handsome man that Nicole runs into...Alex Kiriakis might show up soon..

     

     

    Paul Telfer posted this on his Instagram yesterday:

    This is what my ass gets for coming late into this thread. My thuggy thuggy is coming back for good to the show?!?!? Oh happy day!!! Oh happy Day!!! Now I have to record the show in HD. My stomach will hate me when Dan comes on the scream but my eyes will be in heaven when they see Paul. 

     

    When is his first air date?

  7. Ohhhh, so that's what a mysterious ceramic elephant assistant curator looks like. The cowl necked hoodie says it all! I wonder if she can tell me more about the Pier 1 Rewards Credit Card.

     

    Jen said to JJ: "If Dan calls, whatever you do, don't answer it" Words to live by. Words to live by.

     

    Words that gave me life: Brady a few episodes back laying in the hospital saying that he wasn't firing on all cylinders. Brady is a car without an engine sitting on blocks on a balding lawn. What the hell was with the whole tranquilizer stuff?!? How thuggish, heavy handed and stupid on Kristen's part? Whatever happened to elegant solutions like pumping silent knockout gas under the bedroom door while someone slept? 

     

    Why do they keep saying that Roxanne doesn't seem to be JJ's type?? Is something wrong with Roxanne that we didn't see on our screen? 

     

    JJ's type is drip dry. There is nothing wrong with Roxanne. She has a personality, is pretty, funny, makes JJ laugh and seems joyful. Things JJ obviously has no interest in if he is into Paige.  Seems the sun doesn't shine for JJ unless someone isn't telling him how flawed or how lacking he is because seriously that seems to have been the sum total of his relationship with Paige.

     

    Who died and made Sneasel Maury Povich?!? Using what he thinks he knows about Sparkles paternity (which is of course wrong) as blackmail material? How ugly! I once thought that I might warm up to Sneasel if he embraced his sneaselly ways but this is just beyond the beyond.

     

    I like Christopher Sean. He has such a beautiful smile and pretty eyes and he is a solid actor. I do not yet find the character creepy or stalkerish but I do think he comes across as incredibly entitled. The one thing that bothers me the most is more of a writing problem than a Sparkle problem. He stashed Sonny in a closet for a year and refused to come out and only did so only after his career was lost to him. I think if the show had had him recover from his surgery, go on to to play and than come out I would respect him more.

  8. So Anonymous, or at least someone claiming to be Anonymous is calling Kanye out.

     

    This will be interesting!

    Greasy bottoms?!?! LOL!!! I see a call out but I don't see much by way of threat. 

     

    I find this particularly interesting (quoted from Daily Mail and allegedly from the Anonymous video):

     

    'By approving this irresponsible behavior, you are accepting the reality that one day your daughter will face the repercussions of this photo with classmates in school. You also are condoning this to the young girls who follow Kim on Twitter and witnessed her success as she continuously rises to fame and stardom using her body

     

     

     

    It is a brave new world. I doubt Nori will face much by way of repercussions. It is not like it is back in the day and she is going to be going to school with NY blue bloods on the social registry.  Plus, aren't all the Kardashians pretty much home schooled past a certain age now? Hell by the time she is 15 the only schooling she might be enrolled in is Instragram angles: The Master Class & Liplining by Instructor Kylie and Revenue Streams for Famewhores by Pimp Grandmama. 

     

    I really do hope that Nori breaks the cycle but osmosis is a bitch!!

  9. The only stand up comedy routine I saw on this show last night was sitting on top of Nene's head. That was a laugh riot. I am talking Laugh out loud give it its own HBO comedy special funny. They could call it Wig: Kill it Fire, since it seems inspired by Frankenstein. Seriously, who with her alleged money wears this wig not only out in public, but on tv? 

    • Love 7
  10. What is with that terrible photo shopped pic of Mama Narita?

     

    Will was cracking me up with his hard-hitting journalist schtick.  

     

    Will 'Scoop' Brady ever the hard-hitting reporter didn't even realize it was the Salem River. Lucas made that discovery.  Secondly Scoop was too damn stupid to zoom in on his ipad and see the DiMera boathouse in the background. He needed Hope to come over and do that. Scoop stared over Hope's shoulder at the screen wondering at the marvels of technology. 

     

    I kinda had to laugh at all the Serena scenes the other day. On the way to Daniel's, Serena just had to stop in the middle of the square, open her bag and take out the decoy elephant to check and see if it was still there because I guess there are a lot of pick pocketers that jack you for your coffee table statues in Salem. Also, the actress body language and facial expression when she got caught in the process of trying to switch the elephants (I can't believe I just typed that sentence) was just comedic and not in a good way. 

     

    Sometimes Theresa comes off as bi-polar in scenes with certain people. She just goes from fragile damaged china doll to rabid & snarling in seconds. It was kinda funny how happy she was about the thought of Mel and Brady getting into a fight about her RIGHT IN FRONT OF BRADY! 

    • Love 5
  11. My biggest problem with this elephant statue thing is that Serena has been after this elephant for months now, and we still have NO idea what the stakes are. What if she fails her mission? What if she never gets the elephant? Will her bosses kill Eric? Her? Even without knowing what the elephant does, we should at least know what's at stake if she doesn't follow through. All we've gotten so far is a vague threat that doesn't exactly put Eric at risk.

     

    The fate of Pier One Imports depends on it.

  12. I watched the meet-up between Phaedra and Cynthia a couple of times and I just don't get it. Why was Cynthia so defensive off the bat, talking about she's only going to talk if Phaedra came to discuss the issue like an adult and listen. Huh? 

     

    Phaedra was like, "but you are the one who called the meeting." That was surreal. I didn't even see the point of it accept for another grab at screen time by Cynthia.

  13.  

    The British series wrapped in 3 seasons so I expected HOC to do the same. Guess they don't want to let go of their critical darling quite yet, so this season got dragged out. Placeholder season.

    I was really and seriously under the impression that the Underwoods would be getting their comeuppance this season. It must have been somewhere around episode 5 or 6  that I realized that that wasn't going to happen and that Netflix was going to try to wring another season, or 2 or 3 from this. I would love to be able to say that I ain't gonna be here for that but I would be only kidding myself. However, I will say that I am not a happy camper. All I know is the Underwoods better not win at the end of all this.

     

    I was actually happy earlier on in the season when it was reported to Doug that Rachel had died in a ditch. Not that I dislike Rachel but I knew that it was better than being alive and Doug knowing that because he would only wind up tracking her down. I actually groaned and rolled my eyes when she turned out to be alive because I knew where this was going. This was a very distasteful storyline that ate up time. I really wound up hating Gavin for giving Rachel up like that for his friend that he couldn't save anyway.

     

    I don't care what he does but Jimmi Simpsons (Gavin) will always be a Liam McPoyle to me from Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia. I keep waiting for him to don a bathrobe, grab a glass a milk and make an inappropriate incestual comment about his brother Ryan. 

     

    What did Russo do to deserve what Frank did to him? Yes he was an addict with many of an addict's compulsion but he wasn't a bad person. And Frank used his addiction and weakness as a tool and when he could no longer use him, he murdered him because Russo was a liability. This after conspiring to have the guy fall off the wagon. What about the pregnant woman Claire was happily willing to destroy. Sure she slept with a married man, that's what made her as disgusting as Frank and company because by that token, then again Rachel was no more innocent than these people either. Or what about the artist Adam whose life they almost destroyed with their lies and bullshit or hell even the President. Frank and Claire are scum as much as Doug - they are all horrible people. However while Frank and Claire are all about themselves, people like Doug pathetically try to please them. And in the end Doug will be as expendable to them as everyone else. 

    Thanks for the reminder all of the heinous shit that the Underwoods have done. Throw in Freddy Hayes and I have flames licking at the side of my face. This is why I can't with Claire's sudden attack of conscience. This is why I can't with Claire's 180 from being Lady MacBeth to some basic suburban bitch complaining to her husband that he doesn't bring her flowers anymore while sipping on a pumpkin spiced latte. Heffa please!! I hate the development of Claire leaving Frank because it signals to me that she will not be sharing in the very public fall/comeuppance and dragging that they both equally earned and deserve. I am sorry but after decades of scheming, villainy, murder, mayhem and lawd knows what else, after what amounts to a few months of consciousness and smoopy feelings Claire should not get to trot off and find love and happiness and leave Francis to bear the brunt of all they have done together. Nope! 

     

    Everytime I see Kate Baldwin I am think she looks like the love child of Elisabeth Shue and Amy Adams.

    I can't say I find this website to be all that trustworthy. It ain't exactly Forbes, however, I don't have a problem believing that Kayne is worth close to or over $100 mil and I actually don't have a problem with it. He was/is a producer, he writes lyrics & he performs. He is always looking for ways to advance his artistry even though it may seem odd or even laughable to me. First and foremost he has passion. He is passionate about his music. He is passionate about fashion. He is passionate about all mediums of art really. I must admit that I admire him for that. I may not like him all that much but I have to give him that. Perhaps he shouldn't be venturing into some of the things that he is but at least the man is striving for something. Where he veers off into the absurd is with his huge ego. Humility would go a long way as he tries to breaks these barriers.

     

    The ones that make me sick are the Kardashians. Why the hell are they worth tens if not a hundred million dollars? What the hell are they passionate about? What do they do? What are they striving for? I must admit that I had more patience and a slight bit of affection for Kayne before he hooked up with Kim. I started not liking him and seeing bad ulterior motives in everything he did once he hooked up with Satan's spawn. Frankly, I blame him for making the Kardashians even bigger now and more accepted into the mainstream and I HATE THAT!!! He is the one that talked Anna into putting her/them on Vogue. Hooked Kim up with top designers. Got her big ass sitting in the front row in Paris at all the shows. Got designers sending her shit. Kendall is now a top tier model because of him no matter what she says. I blame Kayne.

  15. Well, nearish.  Dubuque, Iowa.  We had German Catholics, Irish Catholics, German Lutherans and Bohemians, Luxembourgers, Dutch, etc.  My mom was Irish, my dad a combo plate of Germanic types, both catholic, and THAT was considered a mixed marriage.  I loved my upbringing, but I didn't even know about oregano until I moved to SIN CITY, that toddlin' town of Chicago.  Everyone was convinced I'd be killed.  

     

    We did not slap each other in my home town.  Looks of Death, though, now, THOSE I remember!

     

    Bwahhh. Boes are you a Simpsons fan? One of my all time favorites scenes is when Marge goes to a fancy home store picks up a jar of oregano and says: "Or-uh-gahn-o? What the hell?" I am such a dweeb that damn near every time I reach for the oregano I utter this line.

  16. I am no fan of Robyn, and maybe I interpreted her tweet wrongly, but when I read that one about gay couples on her twitter, I thought she was meaning to speak in favor of same sex parents. As in, it's not about having a father there all the time, it's about having more than one parent being involved. So she was implying the lack of Kody could be made up for by surplus of wives parenting together (although that isn't actually happening as they've being showing us--so much for the cul-de-sac homes working wonders for them).  

     

    This reminds me of that scene from the movie Airplane, but instead of June Cleaver saying "I speak jive" we have a previously.tv poster saying "I speak Robyn."

  17. I am so glad that Abby got to read Jordan's job offer. It might be the one time she gets to see what an offer of employment looks like based on skill, ability and education and not due to nepotism.

     

    Will and Paul. I loved Paul dragging Will ass for filth! Will deserves to be beaten roundly about the head and neck with the cold hard truth of reality. That was some gooood stuff! I almost flat out died when Paul was asking Will when he knew Paul was gay. (WARNING vulgarity ahead). I know this would never happen on daytime but I half expected Paul to taunt him that he must have finally realized this when Paul had Will's penis in his mouth. 

     

    I don't like either of Sonny's options in this purported triangle. My wish is that child rapists didn't actually kill thuggy thug Damon (who is gay) but is actually holding him hostage while he gets info on Kirikias family and operations out of him. Damon escapes and makes his way back to the K manor where Sonny has been staying since he got back from Phoenix. Storyline ensues...

     

    I'm still waiting for someone to call Will a slut, whore, ho, something.  The show is pretty liberal with using that term on woman who sleep around so what gives?

     

    The JJ/Eve sex affair reveal was some good stuff. I am no Jen but I must admit that I am with her on one thing and one thing only. If I had walked in on my barely legal son having sex with my arch nemesis I would have yanked every Farrah Fawcett feathered hair out of Eve's head too. So I don't blame Jen for losing her shit and trying to smother a bitch. However, Jen loses after that. She is so damned self-centered. You're so vain, you probably think this orgasm is about you. Girl please! Now because of her I have to deal with a JJ/Paige reunion and waiting for the other shoe to drop. And with Paige, that shoe is an orthopedic saddleshoe.

     

    Gee Melanie, maybe you would like you photo ID if you didn't show all 83 and 4 rows of your teeth when you smiled, you threw your crimping iron in the trash, ran a brush through your hair and didn't dress like an extra from the movie Pretty in Pink.

    If I heard properly, Kandi said something like I wouldn't tell you even if I did know.  {{insertobnoxioustoddlerapplause}} Which I took as her Kandi-specific way of neither denying nor acknowledging anything, but avoiding a confrontation altogether by not getting dragged into it in the first place.  I liked it.  IF I had been told about some texts (Texes is a state) and they're about my best friend, whether they were true or not, whether I'd seen em or not, whether I knew or not, you can fucking kick rocks even thinking you were entitled enough to even open your mouth to ask me to verify the information.  I was actually applauding her restraint for not telling em to pound sand.   And THEN here comes Cynthia with some we know that's your girl but if she's wrong you know you can say to her, girl I love you but you're wrong.   Yeah I can, but damned if it's gonna be for your ears to hear.

     

    ZaldamoWilder, I wish I could use all my thumbs up on this post! Kenya is steadying crowing on twitter calling Kandi a hypocrite and a liar based on last night's episode when I just don't see it.

  19. Both Kayne and Kim have admitted that he chooses her wardrobe. This is the most tragic case of dress up I have ever seen. At one point I genuinely thought he either hated her or they were both just trolling the public. After his fashion show I realized that he just genuinely has no taste. The thing that kills me is that it costs thousands upon thousands of dollars to look this damn bad and that doesn't even include hair and makeup.  

     

    Nothing will ever sway me that this is a love match. She is with Kayne for convenience and to maintain her fame level.  He likes her face and body. They (mostly she) have had chances to be together in the past when they were both single but chose to be just hookups. Plus, I really don't believe that Kayne is her type. She prefers jocks with good bodies. For now it is mutually advantageous relationship for the both of them. 

     

    What she has done to her face is a crime against nature. I actually remember when I first saw her. She was walking with Paris Hilton being photographed by the paps and I genuinely remember thinking damn! that is one gorgeous ass woman.

  20. Peter's half empty 'awards ceremony' was hilarious. The only awards Peter should be handing out is for moochers, gossips and assholes. The Award for Bitch Made Man of the Year should go to Apollo Nida. 

     

     

    I feel bad for Todd for getting involved with Kandi. He seems like a nice, cute guy despite being short and
    big-headed (TM Ratchet Prince Valiant). He deserves so much better, as does his sweet daughter. His marriage is doomed.
    I don't even lay all the blame on his monster-in-law; it's his wife who diminishes him and stands by rolling her eyes while her employees disrespect him.
     

     

    I agree with this. I actually think Todd would be fine in his marriage and with Kandi if she had boundaries with her mother, didn't reward her bad behavior with cars and houses and didn't allow friends and employees to emasculate him. Kandi couldn't make herself look worse if she tried.

  21. I think I could tolerate the Rick/Jessie stuff despite my disappointment at the writers not going there with Rick/Michonne if Jessie weren't married.  I just don't have interest in that triangle.   I suppose the writers think it's interesting to have a redux of Rick/Lori/Shane with Rick as Shane, but I'm iffy about it.   I suppose it could be an exploration of how much Rick has changed to the point where he's more like Shane than the Rick he was in Season 1 but  I just have a low tolerance for triangles.  It's one of the most lazy tropes.   How much of a Shane Rick is, is something that can be explored without a stupid triangle. 

     

     

    I am all for Rick bumping uglies. As has been mentioned many times by many others there just hasn't been enough sexy times during the zombie apocalypse. However, like you I hate the fact that she is married, which spells triangle, which I hate even more. This ain't Days of Our Lives. Also, I smell another albatross. I am not saying that every woman Rick is with needs to be a bad ass like Michonne or Carol but she at least needs to be able to kill walker or man. Jessie just seems so damn sheltered and clueless to me right now. If this was just a slap and tickle one-nighter I wouldn't care, but if Rick is going to be in a serious relationship with any woman I think they need to be asked the 3 questions.

     

    Q1: "How many walkers have you killed."

    Q2: "How many people have you killed?" 

    Q3: "Why?"

     

    I know this probably isn't realistic. Rick is thinking with his peen and wanting some semblance of the life he had before but times have change and ain't no one got time to be constantly rescuing damsels in distress. Also, I don't want Rick to be in a situation where the 1st time he has to kill a person to protect her, she gets all in a huff and ridiculous talking about 'I can't be with someone like you' like Abe's wife only to leave and be eaten down to bones not 50 feet away from the door she exited. I have to admit I LMAO at that.

  22. This episode was brought to you by the letter "A." Or is that "W?" Or is it "M?"

     

    Rick's possible descent is compelling. Liked the end of the episode, especially that he was on Morgan Street.

     

    Speaking of which, where the hell is Morgan?!?! We have only 3 episodes left in the season. If this show pulls that shit of showing Morgan in the last 30 seconds of the season finale looking at letters carved in trees I'm gonna have a rage stroke!

     

     

    I kind of felt like Aaron was "grooming" Daryl.  I'm not saying for nefarious reason because I can't get a read on the guy.  Hell, maybe pre-ZA he was some sort of counselor/therapist.  But it all just felt off.  I'm not down with trusting the guy just yet.  Or anyone of the ASZers for that matter.

     

     

    Loved seeing Daryl make a new friend.  I like Aaron and have a good feeling about him.  It was interesting how Aaron still feels like a bit of an outsider because of his sexual orientation, and very realistic I think.  Even with all the time that Rick and Co. have spent with Daryl I still don't think any of them have a clue what that feels like - to feel completely alienated by society.  I didn't take Daryl not taking the gun as not believing in Rick.  I took it as they had all been asking him to give it a chance (both Carol and Rick) and he decided to do just that.

     

    I really want to trust Aaron too because I am starting to like him which is quite the turnaround, given I cheered when Rick knocked his ass out a few episodes back. There is just something slightly creepy about him that hovers around the edges. I do love what he had to say about being the outsider. What rang particularly true is him saying how people can be so casually offensive and even more so while under stress or during a crises. I find that to be amazingly true.

     

    However, I have to say that Aaron being with Eric  makes me want to like him all the more. Eric is such a special ball of sunshine. I mean he is what a smiley face sticker looks at after it has had a bad day.  

     

    I really don't see how the Alexandrians have made it as far as they have. How is it they have no livestock? Not even a damn chicken for eggs? Pigs? Nothing? Are they even farming and growing their own veggies? Have they been getting everything they eat on runs? That doesn't seem sustainable.
