    San Diegan here too! I'm single and I'll be honest: if the success rate wasn't so shitty, maybe I'd gift production with an application from my extroverted self. I'm a natural redhead and I also teach 8th grade - by choice. That tells anyone ALL they need to know about me! haha!

    Come on Bridget.... do it for US!  We need the inside scoop! 😉

    Looks like Angie ordered the "Elizabeth Perkins" when she went in for an upgrade.  She does seem like a possible new addition.  Maybe they have her in the wings now as a Jen replacement once the legal situation really gears up.  

    Yes, this is who she resembles!  I was wracking my brain thinking she was a blonde version of an actress, but couldn't place who.  I do like her and wouldn't mind her on the show.  Especially with her connection to Whitney... and that sticking in Lisa's craw!

    He didn't become a great and caring partner until she called him out on it.  Which I guess I can understand, because if his wife just let him do what he wants, he's not going to think anything of doing what he wants without checking in with his partner.

    Yes!  I was irritated with Darvil at first, thinking he was going to be one of "those" contestants who is a know it all, not listening to their partner.  Surprisingly Darvil got over himself and became a much better partner.   Lindsey spoke up and was great at providing food.  They ended up being a great team with really high PSRs.

  4. Another garage and backyard make-over and also changing the exterior color. I think they could have scheduled differently so as not to have had two such similar episodes in a row.  At least this renovation also included a storage shed for all that garage stuff that can no longer be stored.  Josh Groban seemed very genuine.

    Brett reminds me of some actress who always plays the star’s best friend but I can’t put my finger on the name. The guy she’s matched up with has zero affect and looks bored/depressed/zoned out. In any event, that’s three hours of my life I’ll never get back. 

    I think Brett looks like a cross of Toni Collette and Julia Roberts.  Ryan has very shifty eyes.  Not sure if that's due to nerves or maybe anxiety.  I agree with who said he has a whole lot of sad going on.

    Once again, my wife and I agreed with you.  We questioned her "friend's" motives.  I'm not trying shame anyone's weight.  But maybe her "friend" was a bit jealous.  Rachel was heavier and reshaped her body and is regaining her self-esteem.  Sometimes people are NOT happy when you're happy. And try to mind f**k you into remaining as miserable as they are.

    Everything she said was negative and hurtful.  And Rachel's mom never jumped in to show any support.

    Rachel's friend... wow... harsh!  What if it's Rachel who doesn't like the husband (Jose?) at the altar?  What if she wants to turn and walk away?  With that friend, you don't need enemies!

    King Protea from South Africa.  gorgeous flower but odd looking in a bouquet

    That bouquet was way. way too big for Bao. It completely overwhelmed her, though it would have been better had she held it down at waist level.  I'm not sure why brides hold them up so high and hide the front of their dresses. Bao was stunning though... just perfect.  That sparkly cape was gorgeous.  She and Johnny did seem to relax when they realized they knew each other. I have hope for this couple!

  6. It was a nice make-over, but I just kept wondering where the family would store everything that was in the garage.  No way was the closet in the living area big enough to store all the tubs they had, plus bikes, etc.  

    Does anyone else fast forward through all the over explaining the brothers do in every episode?

    I loved the episode!  But I love Gwyneth already, so it's easy!

    Did anyone notice Gwyneth's nose?  It was like there was a pimple or something they were trying to hide there.  I was fascinated by it.  I feel bad, but my TV is really big so I couldn't help but keep noticing it.

    Yes... I didn't notice it at the beginning of the show, but it was really obvious at the end during the reveal. It almost looked to me like a scrape or divot out of her nose.

  8. I really don't care for Gwyneth. I think she's pretentious and full of herself.  That said, I was pleasantly surprised with this episode.  The connection she had with her assistant seemed genuine and reciprocal. She also did actually did get in there and do several projects unlike other celebs... who are there just to get their faces on TV.  I'm looking at you Kim K.

    I'm thinking perhaps the bedroom was on the bottom level before coming up to the living room kitchen.  Even if this was just a studio apartment/townhouse, he'd have to have a full bathroom somewhere.

  9. And... season 3 is following right along with being as disappointing as the first two seasons.  I keep trying to separate the TV show from the books, but it's so difficult when so many of the changes and plot lines just make no sense whatsoever.  The heart of Virgin River is missing in the TV show and it's just a silly soap opera.  I think I'm done.

  10. I've been trying to separate the TV show from the books (I've read all 20), but it isn't easy.  This season is so so depressing and I agree with whoever said it's like a soap opera.  So much drama, so many silly plot lines (how the hell is Charmaine not showing with twins!) without any of the heart I was hoping this series would have.  It's really disappointing.

    I take my birthday off every year, because my supervisor thinks no one should have to work on their birthdays.  So... okay!

    Agreed.  Every time she's in that talking head with that pink dress/top I, first, watch for a nip slip and 2) look at the center of her chest.  It is so odd looking.  Some plastic surgeon really did her wrong. 

    In that talking head, her chest looks beyond fake and reminds me of the Halloween costumes with the plastic breasts.

  12. Thank you @NotChristine and you're right... the episode wasn't marked as new or even titled. It randomly recorded today and I was able to watch.  

    The appetizer and entrée in one hour was a really intense challenge for those chefs.  I think the additions of the new food stations add an interesting element too.  

    Glad they're back to filming in the store!

    No I saw it on regular Food Network.  The episode recorded on my DVR but it didn't list the season or episode number, which was strange.  I thought it might have been a repeat but it was actually the first episode of the new season.  I'm on Comcast, BTW.

    Well heck... I can't find the new episodes!  One was supposed to be on last night and the other tonight.  I see them on the Food Network website too, but they aren't showing in the guide and upcoming programs for DirecTV.  I have all new episodes set to record.  

    GGG got me through the pandemic, especially the start when everything was so uncertain.  I've seen almost all the back episodes and put up with the delivery games shows and now want to see them back in the Flavortown Market.  Damn it! 

    And thanks YEAH NO!

  14. I agree with you @biakbiak. The new episode with the Jenner/Kardashian friend was so so over the top.  The homeowner had a ton of outdoor space, but even with extended family, what does one person do with all that? Now if she was planning on flipping the house, that would make sense.  

    It was so hard for me to look at Kim's face with all that spackled on make-up.  She was startling in the natural outside lighting... so fake and plastic looking. Of course she wasn't going to do anything on the renovation; she was only there to be seen.  At least Kylie (is that her name? I don't follow those people) and Kris did the "work" segment that's always featured.  

    I do generally enjoy this show and am glad it's back.

    LOL.    Well she did graduate law school so I'm guessing not too bad!

    And passed the bar... 😉 Wonder if Shane will give it a go again?

    So glad Braunwyn is gone.  It chaps my hide that she really wasn't ever held accountable for abusing her husband and still wanted everyone's sympathy for her struggles.  So thirsty. 

    Not surprised that Kelly is gone if Heather is coming back.  Didn't Heather say she'd never film with Kelly again? 

    Add Elizabeth to the one and done list.  

    According to Page 6 two newcomers will be added to the cast.

  16. Kam's hair and make up were beautiful. It's too bad she tried too hard to "bring it" and ended up looking like a fool. 

    The chicken foot... geez o Pete.  I can't believe this was made into something that attacks someone's culture.  I wouldn't have eaten it...  or offal, or puffer fish, or marmite, or any live foods, etc. if those were put in front of me. I don't have anything against cultures where those types of foods originate,  just don't shame or force someone to try something they've said they would not eat.  That's just asshole behavior.  I was glad to hear that Tiffany seemed to realize this and about the crickets too.  

    Nothing was ever said about Jen, who she was and why she disappeared.  That was just weird.  Were we not supposed to see her and realize she was suddenly gone? 

    I would be really surprised if Brandi and Stephanie are back next season.  Stephanie didn't even have a video package of her time this season and she barely said anything on the reunion.   I really won't miss Brandi, especially after this year, but I will miss Stephanie.  She really does seems very kind and genuine. She and Brandi have a real friendship and Stephanie has said she couldn't imagine doing the show without Brandi... so...? 

    If this franchise even comes back, I bet it will have a reboot and a few new housewives.

    I spent the first few minutes wondering what the hell was going on with Amber’s eyebrows. They are way too dark and harsh for the hair color she has. Looks like caterpillars. 

    I’m Shocked they paired Lacey with 2 guys, considering she has said many times in the past she doesn’t work well with other women. You’d think they’d want to Capitalize on that for drama. 

    Hated Suzanne in her previous seasons, so far I. feel the same.  All she does is Nag, Nag and Nag.  She just gives off “i hate every guy” vibes. Constantly cutting EJ off to discredit his opinions & inserting her own. I’m not a big EJ fan, but so far he’s actually being respectful and implementing her suggestions , Meanwhile she has something negative to say about all of his. 

    Amber's eyebrows look like some heavy duty microblading with shading. I agree they are way way too dark for her hair. 

    I thought the guys with Suzanne were the issues on her other challenges.  Now... not so much. She would've annoyed the hell out of me with her continuous direction. Who takes 3 days to build a shelter?!

    I don't remember him yelling like that on his individual challenges, but he was paired up with Jeff on an XL and probably learned it from him.

    The yelling is just so stupid.  We know you're an alpha male and now all the game in the area does too, so... good luck with hunting!

  18. I could barely watch and FFD through a lot of the most recent episode.  I love Aarti Sequeira, but her husband's antics were so distracting and beyond annoying.  Then add in Chris Petroni and his schtick and it was more of a "look at me, look at me" competition, rather than a cooking challenge.

  19. I hope this is okay to post here because it's a media thread... 

    From Stephanie and Brandi's podcast, Kary and Brandi flew out to NY on the same plane.  Kary sat next to Brandi and even held the baby.  They were tested before the flight and Kary was negative.  Then they were tested after the flight and before the reunion and Kary came up positive. She had to quarantine in NY as did Brandi and her baby, staying there well after the reunion. They both appear virtually at the reunion also. Brandi continued to test negative as of the last podcast.  

    Kary was in the middle seat on the plane, so I really hope contact tracing was done and others around them were notified... but I kind of doubt this was done.

    I don’t mind Hunter either.  Give him a bit of a break please.  The kid is probably afraid to let his personality out.  
     

    Can’t you hear Guy saying ‘Just follow my lead’ or ‘just do what I do’. 

    Is 24 years old still a kid? This isn't Hunter's first time on a TV show where he'd deserve to be cut some slack. He's been on many, many episodes of Guy's other shows and his delivery or presence is the same on all of them. Maybe he just doesn't have the personality for TV?  Just my opinion... 

    • Love 7
  21. What was up with Guy's voice on the first two shows?  He was really hoarse.  Not sure if he mentioned something and I missed it.  

    Please... no more Hunter.  He is wooden beyond belief with zero personality.  Everything he says is like he's reading from a 2nd grade primer.
