Don't feel too bad because it had already crossed my mind that Kims kind heart was not the reason, or at least the only reason, that she is caring for Monty in his final days. Didn't he come from significant money? Might he have some left and no current wife to leave it to? I know, I am awful, but I have come to view Kim in such a negative light I can't help it. At the same time, I still love my ex husband (love, most definitely not in love, I wanted the divorce but still care deeply for him, though not at all romantically ... it's complicated), and would care for him if he had no one else. So I can still accept that possibility. Just for clarification I am speculating, I sort of thought that was a big part of what we do here?

Yes to all of this. All of my dogs have been rescues and only once did anyone know the dogs previous name so I named the others. If they are actually with a rescue group the rescue usually names them. This happened with my latest rescue a Shih Tzu they named Ginger. Problem was I already have a dog named Ginger, so I changed her name to Emma. She clearly responds to Emma and not Ginger, but of course she didn't have that name long, she was only in rescue about a week before I got her. Beleive me, rescues are so happy to have their new lives, they don't mind a new name one bit.I have this on good authority!

OMG. I love it. Crop Top wedding gown. The bridesmaids dresses look amazingly normal though. Dammit, I wanted Ariana, the smug bitch, to suffer. I love this show.

As a waitress OK, but not the show. The cast of Vanderpump Rules is still too classy for Brandi. Besides I don't want the skank ruining the best little gem on BRAVO. Jax is bad enough, but other than dumping him, they just don't need to mess with this clusterfuck masterpiece. Other than dragging in side pieces from all over the country to confront the chuckleheads of course.

I'm glad i don't twitter. I don't need another reason to hate the Skank. She hates her dog? I have seen her yelling at them, and calling them assholes and thought, as Yo likes to say, "who does that"? I have also seen them all crated when she is home, (crate door closed) which I totally don't get. I had to do that to one of my dogs because he had a seriously pinched nerve in his neck and I couldn't have him playing with his two sisters on Vets orders, but it broke my heart. He didn't get why he couldn't come out and I couldn't explain it. Well, I did, but I'm pretty sure he still didn't understand. She is such a bitch.

I thought it was sweet. That is one reason I just can't quit Lisa V. She loves dogs including those with issues. That dog was clearly sweet as could be but she was overweight and, believe it or not, fat dogs and cats are discriminated against. They have a very difficult time getting adopted, but it didn't really phase Lisa. I like the scenes with Lisa and her dogs as well as Kyle and hers. But then I adore animals. Except Brandi. I usually find Yolanda's scenes with her kids boring, but I must say I was impressed with how very sweet Anwar is. Plus I got to see the Fridge, which I like way better than I like Yo. I think I have a girl crush on Eileen. I know this because I actually watched on WWHL and I hate that show. It wasn't as awful as usual because of her. However, I have to say that I did get a sinking feeling that this might be her only season. Something about the look on her face when Andy asked her how she liked it. In spite of her diplomacy, I am pretty sure the answer was "not much" in reality. Not that I could imagine what's not to like. Having wine thrown in your face, having some skank insult your home (as Yolanda loves to say, "who does that?") having some tramp behaving badly with her drunken/drugged BFF in your home. You just know Brandi wants her gone really bad and I just can't imagine that Eileen needs this clusterfuck. I am also loving Lisa R. Brandi is truly toxic. She actually said Eileen should hire a Nanny for her kid so she can curse to her hearts content? First, kid is a little old to need a Nanny or sitter when his parents are just having a few friends over. Second, it's his home. You don't like it, Leave. Or better yet don't show up. Which brings us to next week where the skank actually shows up at a party that Kyle is throwing, without being invited? Really? Because your sure she just overlooked the invite seeing as how you two are so close? This is the thing with Brandi. She seems to think that she can do and say whatever she wants no matter how offensive it is and it's no big deal. Or maybe she'll give you some BS apology that clearly indicates she is really not the least bit sorry, and everything will be fine. I don't get it. I don't know who the other guest on WHHL was, but she was pretty funny and at one point, when they brought up Brandi insulting Eileen's decor she said something about how Brandi wouldn't know because she grew up in a trailer park. I have no idea where she grew up and it doesn't matter anyway because you can't help where you came from. But Brandi definitely belongs in a trailer park now. And here is Orange County, we have some pretty fancy trailer parks, so she doesn't belong in one of those either. The woman is pure trash.

I have five sisters. It's a rule. I have never, in my life, had any kind of a physical "girl fight" like the ones that keep breaking out with alarming regularity on these shows. However, if I was concerned for one my sisters welfare and that Skank tried to block me from getting to her, trust me, Eileen would not have been suggesting neosporin. She'd have been calling the paramedics because I would have decked the bitch. Really. It's a rule.

I generally find these weddings such a snoozefest I don't watch. But trying to make a limited series out of them is just too much. The more I think about a VP wedding though. With Scheana's version of elegant and classy. That alone will be a hoot. Is she wearing hot pants? The purple eyelashes? Then add Kristen to the mix, along with copious amounts of alcohol. The very best would be seeing smug Ariana dressed like an 80's version of Madonna....... Oh yeah. I'm there.

I wouldn't say she is kicking ass. She is staying under the Radar, which for the skank is an accomplishement, but not exactly kicking ass, IMO. Of course Trump and the men like her she plays the victim card really well. The one I can't figure out, that actually seems to like her is Leeza Gibbons, but I guess it's the same way she won over Lisa V and Yolanda. Of the men the only one that seems to see through her is Ian. Excuse me EYEON. He's a horses ass, but I will give him credit for having Brandi's number. The thing on CA is that Kenya is coming across really awful. Smarter than Brandi still, but that's not exactly a high bar. However, since Kenya is acting so bad, I think Brandi looks almost well.....decent. Except she still can't get through a TH without 10 bleeps.

Yes, sadly I was one of those cheering on her "honesty" in the early days. However, now it is clear iit was just the tip of the iceberg on the horrid bitch that is Brandi. As for Claudia, I don't like her one bit, and I agree she is probably an awful person. However, that does not stop me from enjoying every second of watching her go after Nene. Nene is a horrible human being with such delusions, I just can't. Bitch carries on like she an actual actress. Bitch, please. I don't care much for Atlanta any more. There has to be at least one or two Ho's I either like or enjoy watching. New Jersey jumped that shark a couple seasons back and now it's Atlanta. However, I am feeling fairly optimistic about BH. I am loving Eileen and Lisa R. I still sort of like Lisa V, although not as much as before, but I love Giggy. I have always been 'meh" on Kyle - although I am firmly team Kyle in the current dust up. I find Yolanda a snooze, but I am in love with her house. Hell, I'm in love with her Fridge. If they would just dump Brandi the Skank, I think it might move up to my favorite.

Brandi is a liar and Trump is delusional. They always do a two hour live show so they aren't "adding" anything. The network is probably trying to spin it, buts its all BS.

Yes, I don't think Networks generally show episodes of big hits back to back. Unless it's AMC and they are showing early episodes of one of their hits like Mad Men or The Walking Dead in anticipation of a new season, but that is entirely different. This feels like "if we have to show this crap, let's just get it over with as quickly as possible". Odd though, I heard the Donald almost won an emmy. (WTF does that even mean???) On thing that seemed to happen for me on other seasons was there was a Celebrity I had always disliked that I would actually end up kind of liking by watching them on C.A. It happened with John Rich, Lisa Rinna and even La Toya Jackson ( I still think she's dumber than dirt, but actually a really sweet person). This season, not only do I not like anyone better, I now think Eye On is a douche and I can't stand Kenya where I previously could. I still don't know who the hell Sig is so no change of opinion on him and I still hate Geraldo and Brandi. Actually if I had to find one person slightly less repulsive than I previously thought it would actually have to be Kate. I still can't say I like her, but she wasn't as annoying on this as she has been on everything else I've ever seen her on. That, in itself, may indicate just how awful this season is.

Perfection. ITA with all of it.

I think next week Kenya is definitely fired. Not sure who the other person will be, but the final four listed here certainly seem more than plausible. I started this with some wierd, nostalgic affection for Ian, but he has definitely run through that. The guy does know his claim to fame was 90210 right? With Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth, Brian Austen Greene, Shannon Doherty and such? And that they were actually more popular than he was? Well, he may have been neck and neck with Tori. Which should be enough to deflate anyone's ego. Or not. Leeza is the only one I stil find tolerable.

I watch the Ho's and WTF is still pretty much what I think when they are on C.A.

God, I almost choked at that ridicullous comment. Sad thing is the idiot so believes it himself he doesn't see the blatant ass kissing the rest of us have. I have to say, as a long time Howives watcher, Kenya has never bothered me as much as she has some people. Maybe because I hated the chick she got into the smack down with (Porsha) or maybe because. really, I just find the rest of the women on that show so awful that I never really got was all the fuss was about her. She seemed no worse than most of them and at least moderately intelligent, unlike several of them. That said, I am totally hating her on this show. I didn' t want to. There is not another celebrity I hate more that Brandi the Skank, so I haven't minded Kenya going after her on this show one bit. However, the rest of her behavior has really been awful. She is a pompous bitch. Or maybe I just can't that she is so sucking up to that troll Trump. Has anyone ever tested DNA on the three Trump kids? I realize there is a physical resemblance but, so far, that seems to be it. They all actually seem to be fairly decent human beings which makes it really hard to believe that the troll fathered them. Must have been Ivanka's genes. Geraldo is an idiot. I guess I have always known that, but it is just so out there now. Leeza is the only one that deserves to win. Yes, because nothing says "Party" like invoking the memory of 9/11. Geraldo is an idiot.

Schwartz was trying to be funny, right? Lord I hope so. Kudos to Scheana for proving that she can truly make anything and everything about her. Yes, Scheana, crazy ass Kristen and her lunatic pal form Miami were thinking of nothing but the Royal Wedding and this was all an evil plot to ruin it. Because, Really, It's all about you and your wedding. If Lisa fires Kristen and not Scheana she is opening herself up for a lawsuit. If you don't live in CA and are unfamiliar with our labor laws you might laugh, but that is not a joke. I can hear the arguments before the Labor Board already. Kristen, at least, was not on shift. She was visiting when she was verbally attacked by an employee of the restaurant. Said employee was on duty and made every bit as much a scene as Kristen. It's all a personal vendetta because Lisa has a bias against lunatics with short hair, because clearly she continues to employee lunatics with long hair. Whatever. It's CA. the employee is always right. I must be truly evil, even by Previously TV standards, but I felt not one ounce of sympathy for Ariana. He cheated you idiot. Stop acting so freakin' smug. Yeah, sure you can have a blissful relationship as long as you just look the other way and pretend like he loves you and would never, ever cheat. Keep believing it sister! The woman is delusional and desperate. Tom is a known cheater. What makes that stupid bitch think she is any different? Or, even worse, she knows and is willing to pretend she doesn't. I also cannot believe that three women, count them three, are actually battling over a bisexual guy with a 4 inch penis who generates more chemistry in his scenes with Schwartz and Jax than with any of the three women. Who runs away like a little girl when confronted by one of the three. Jax is a POS. This show is awesome, but I hate the scenes with him. We went Stassi free, now dump Jax and we can concentrate on the rest of the chucklefucks in relative peace. Schwartz skipping around and enjoying it way too much. Sandoval running away from the Miami nutjob. Scheana and the Royal Wedding, and crazy Kristen's next evil plan. This reunion show is going to be epic.

Yep. To all of this.

I'm just taking a wild stab here, but my guess is because she's an idiot. A drunken, stoned idiot at that.

Well if Brandi's there you know there's going to be booze. The boat is a new twist though. I suppose if she fell overboard we would have already heard about it, so no point in hoping.........

Excellent. Between this and "Dance Mom's" I think Lifetime should advertise themselves as the Child Abuse Network. I quit watching Dance Moms a long time back because of that Cow's constant abuse of her "dancers". I don't watch this either although I have caught parts of it. Really Lifetime. BRAVO looks downright high brow in comparison. And they have Brandi the Skank.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention that ridiculous statement about none of us knowing why we are here. Puleeze, like coming back from the dead doesn't really put "being here" in a slightly different light. I recall Maggie making some similarly inane comment when she found out that Bellamy was one of the returned. Lame is too kind of a description. Your theory about the writers or the Network wimpingout is interesting, but I have trouble believing the writers were together enough to even have a cohesive story in mind. It could have certainly been a great way to go though. Why not explore why a suicide would come back? All the others seem to have died from disease or accident and presumably were not ready to die, but Rachel took her own life. I always thought that whole portion of the story was odd anyway. I mean, she was supposedly engaged to Tom andhe supposedly was devastated by her death. Everything they said indicated they were still a couple when she died. There was never any mention of her having some horrrible disease which might cause her to want to end her life with dignity. It was always treated like a small part of the plot but, like so many other parts of the plot, it never made sense or rang true. What, she was having a bad day so she offed herself? Pretty wierd. However if there was, in fact, some dark deed in her past, something she couldn't live with, that might make some sense. It could also explain why her baby was supposed to be some demon child, had she gone to hell for whatever awful thing she did. It actually might have made for an interesting storyline. Too bad the writers didn't have as much imagination. None of us know why we're here indeed. Show deseves to be cancelled for that line alone.

Yes to all of these reasons. For me, I do think the era is a huge piece of it. I grew up in the 60's so much of what they cover peripherally in show, Vietnam, the Civli rights movement, the womens movement, are sort of the soundtrack of my life. I watched those same newscasts. I remember distinctly the JFK assasination, as well as those of MLK and Bobby 5 years later. I also vividly remember watching the Democratic National convention in Chicago in 1968. which may be well have been the foundation of my life long distrust of the police in spite of never having had a single run in with Law Enforcement in my entire white bread, boring life. But I digress. I think it is that combination of nostalgia for my childhood and early teen years, combined with the compelling characters and storytelling. I do watch television, but I am also a dedicated reader. Generally I have a book nearby even when TV watching but I can honestly say the Mad Men was the first show that I will sit down to watch without a book, phone, tablet or any other distractions. I sit down to watch and I am always sad when the hour is up. I'm pretty sure I'll be in mourning at the end of the series. For me personally it is the best Drama series ever. Flaws and all and as much as I have come to detest Jessica Pare it is a testament to the rest of the cast and the writing that I can still say that.

So, I actually watched the very beginning, then fell asleep and woke up just in time the for the handy/dandy wrap up. That wasn't a dream right? Bellamy and Maggie are now officially a couple? Wow, at least they tied up one loose end. Unfortunately no one cared and yeah, the chemistry was non existant. Henry's comment about not being allowed to vote, brought to miind the old jokes about Chicago politics under Mayor Daly (the first, I'm old). So, we have no idea why the hordes of people resurrected but, thank heaven, we know they are not allowed to vote. Makes sense, having dead people voting could make for some really trying election days.Then you have that whole hassle of deciding if they are just dead, or dead and returned, dead, retutned and dead again, or like Bellamy and Rachel, dead, returned, dead again and then returned. Yeah, it's definitely not a good idea. Especially in Florida. They have their own bureau and Rachel the only one of the dead/returned that we know for certain actually wanted to be dead is still returned after having wrecked the life of her former boyfriend, who it seems, does not get to return even though most of the world has. I am officially finished with this type of show. Too many disappontments. All the dropped storylines that have already been enumerated here so well. At some point I may actually watch this last episode just to see the parts I missed, but I somehow have the feeling I didn't miss much. Well, How To Get Away With Murder comes back this week. Now there is a show that is almost as completely far fetched and implausable as this one, even with no supernatural overtones. Yet it manages to entertain beyond my initial expectations. Judging from the ratings, I am not alone, and it proves that given a compelling enough storyline and writing that seems to actually have a direction, a far fetched premise can still be a success. Too bad about Resurrection. It looked so promising in the beginning.

I'm guessing Kristen confessed as much after the two met each other at a meeting of Lunatics Anonymous. While my rational mind tells me that Lisa will have to fire Kristen after this, my BRAVO infested brain screams NO! For any one else who watched the first version of this show, "Melrose Place" you will probably recall that it was never the same after losing their own verison of Kristen, Kimberly Shaw. I suppose even if fired she could continue to hang around, being a Stalker and all. But still. Minor spoiler alert: God I love this show.
