Jaded

I read an article last night about LGBT firsts regarding characters on TV shows. This paragraph mentioned Veronica Redd and the character she played on "The Jeffersons".

Phyllis is to Y&R like Carly is to General Hospital. Neither are a good thing IMHO.

^ Hopefully that video is working now. This skit/song was mentioned elsewhere here so I figured since I looked it up I may as well post it in this thread too. One of the few things I can still tolerate Justin in. I think Lady Gaga and Andy help with that a lot. Also, RIP to Suzanne Somers since Chrissy is parodied in it.

I mentioned that skit to someone the other night in a discussion about Justin Timberlake. It's one of the few things I can still tolerate him in. Andy and Lady Gaga are a big part of that. RIP to Suzanne Somers since Chrissy is parodied in this. * * I was watching the show earlier this week when Ashley was visiting Tucker in his hotel room. I don't remember Trevor St. John being as thin as he is now. I kept thinking how much older he looks so the age difference between him and Eileen isn't noticeable at all. I hate that I let the way someone looks distract me that much. I still love him as an actor and hope his Tucker doesn't end up written into oblivion in the same vein as Ashland.

Maybe it was due to the strike?

John Stamos has a new bio out too. The former women in his life haven't been happy about what he said about them. Well Rebecca Romijn said she isn't commenting since she had no prior notice. One of the stories told that's getting the most attention is him saying he caught Teri Copley his former girlfriend of cheating on him with Tony Danza. Teri has apparently doubled down in regards to responding with that they were "very much broken up". John Stamos Says He Caught Former Girlfriend Teri Copley in Bed with Tony Danza: 'Worse Than Anything' John Stamos Admits He Was 'Shattered' After Rebecca Romijn Divorce: 'Maybe She Wasn't the Devil' This one goes into more details in regards to what he said about Rebecca including accusing her of cheating too. Why Rebecca Romijn won’t be commenting on ex John Stamos’ bombshell book claims I read that his book comes in at almost 400 pages. I wondered after finding that out how many more pages there were before being edited to that number. There are quite a few articles on People's website talking about things that were mentioned. Including this one where his son is being used to promote it. John Stamos' Son Billy Moves His Dad's Memoir to Front of Bookstore to 'Make It Easy' to Find: 'We're So Proud'

I was surprised to see Richard was 80. I would have thought early 70's maybe.

Amanda Bynes parents have did a much better job in regards to a conservatorship over her compared to what Britney went through. Even though Amanda's lasted almost 10 yrs she relapsed and had public issues more than once during those years which made it seem like at least that it was much less restrictive compared to Britney's. Amanda filed to have her conservatorship terminated last year which her parents agreed to due in part to how well she's said to be doing after a lot of help from professionals in various ways over the years to get there.

YT age restricted that video so people have to go directly to watch it. I guess the uploader could have done it too. I saw another video on the right side suggested ones from that same concert where Justify My Love was being sung with people in nude looking costumes without any age restrictions though....🤷🏼‍♀️

I agree with your whole reply especially the part where you say that Abbott should be a politician. I was glad I wasn't drinking anything when in was going on and on and on in the Variety interview about how hard CCB works and how she is at all the stuff he said she's doing there. Something about the way Abbott talks about CCB gives me the creeps outside of him creeping me out in general if that makes any sense at all.

I'd love it if this was true. I get the feeling it's a bunch of lip service though. Maybe her "opinions" and the availability are affecting ratings though. The first article mentions the second one.

JC was always my favorite out of the 5. I wouldn't mind knowing the 4 outside of Justin though.

I bumped up the Julie thread with an article from last month where she's claiming two former hosts pushed her off the show. She also mentioned details from what she says happened after the first season.

I meant to post this article quite a while ago. Was trying to close some of my open tabs (way too many) and came across this article again. While promoting her new book But first, God Julie is saying she was "pushed off" the show by two former hosts. I'd be uncomfortable working with someone defending a man who's done what Leslie has in his life. If those two hosts went to the bosses to express that I can't say I blame them. Julie also comments about what went on after the first season that saw Leah and Holly bumped off the show. Julie Chen Moonves Accuses 2 Former The Talk Cohosts of Pushing Her Off Show She never did leave Leslie instead she "found god" and is now overly religious. At one point she was sending/giving out bibles/religious masks to BB alumni, people working BTS on Big Brother and fans as described in this article which is from 2020. It also includes a makeup free pic of Julie too for anyone interested in that since most of us saw the makeup free episode of The Talk years ago.

MSNBC could be good at reporting news and having political/legal content. It would cut down on some of the repeated commentary that ends up being worded differently throughout the day. I remember before they decided to take a more political route in regards to content when they'd have pairs of people anchoring throughout the day until the evenings usually. To me things started to take a bit of a downturn after they hired then fired Michael Savage in the early 2000's.

@Cloud9Shopper sounds like she's mentally and emotionally exhausted at this point. Setting things down and taking a break until the holidays are over would give her time to regroup, refocus and as she mentioned for her Linkedin profile to start fresh. She's "gainfully employed" so it wouldn't be like she'd be going unpaid while taking a hiatus in regards to job hunting. I get trying to be encouraging at the same time people know their limits and what happens if they push themselves too far.

L&O: OC must have "interesting" behind the scenes stuff going on like Wolf's CBS show FBI: Most Wanted.

I had only seen this Queen video in 360p on their official channel before tonight. It's one of the videos they've yet to remaster that is if they ever plan to. This remastered version showed up in the list of recommendations and I let out a little squee upon seeing it. I've read the only one in the group who liked this video was Freddie and the rest went along with it. I like the video for the song due in part to it's theatrical nature. I'm still amazed at how different it looks after sharing it here.

@BlueSkies the title of that song made me think of Amy Grant's song almost by the same name which is a favorite of mine and has been since I was little. My Mom and I did stuff without my (I'll be nice here) father so when we'd be in the car around town or traveling Amy Grant's stuff would usually be playing. I had no idea that she was a Christian music singer at the time and my Mom never mentioned it. I just liked her music. This probably isn't that much of a unpopular opinion. I still can't really listen to Michael Jackson's music even though he's been dead for quite awhile now. I like to listen to online radio sometimes like AccuRadio for example and when his music comes on my first reaction is to skip to something else.
