I read an article in Variety or the Reporter that revealed that the show was canceled by the two GUYS who head Amazon programming because it wasn't interesting enough (to them). They couldn't remember the characters names so in meetings they referred to the characters by the actors' names. And they wanted to know if it could be turned into a comedy. Hey Amazon programming GUYS - unfortunately, you just proved that the world of the working place hasn't changed nearly enough in 50 years. You're still pulling rank and pulling shit on talented, creative women, just like the men in the show (and I'm old enough to remember men like the ones in the show).

I don't see the point of wearing that, period. Ever. Under any circumstances unless you're going to a "Ugliest Xmas Costume" party.

I'm sure you're right, because in yesterday's paper I saw a story about a man who leads some kind of "church" that requires him to wear goat horns on his head (don't ask - I have no idea!). And the courts just ruled in his favor - I think he can wear them on flights now. Rolling my eyes and SMH here - whatever happened to common sense? Or dignity? I guess I'm very old-fashioned, but even though I'm a complete non-believer, I understand why people tithe to support their churches, but this is different - CO$ seems like a long con, a very extensive, long-term money grab from people who are willing to pay anything for, what? Salvation? Going to another planet? There HAS to be brainwashing involved, even though nothing like the traditional cult brainwashing methods (food and sleep deprivation, etc.) has been shown so far on this program.

Unfortunately, they would probably have twisted themselves into stammering pretzels trying to gush enough about the vibrant youthfulness of her edd-i-toe-rrrrial bananas. I was wishing sooooo hard that she would trip on those HIDEOUS platform whatever-they-were shoes/boots and land on her smug face.

I like it!

Ha! I forgot about them!

I couldn't really get a good look at what Nina was wearing last night, but it looked like a Christmas tree and it looked cheap. I think off the shoulders is fine for women of any age, and Heidi and Nina both have good shoulders and decolletage areas, but that dress in the picture above is just so badly proportioned and like you said, dated. Cold shoulder is the perfect name, not because of the design but because that is exactly the reaction it produces, in me at least. Ug-Lee. Not just ugly, but impractical, too.

I don't know if this is accurate, but I read that the cult filed over 1000 lawsuits against the IRS and individual agents, and the IRS promptly rolled over and granted them cult church status. It makes my blood boil to think that I pay taxes and these charlatans don't, but it's the IRS who deserves the blame for that. Hey, here's an idea: If everyone on this board sends $100 to my cat Blue Moon (care of me), in return for a picture of Moonie with a thought bubble that reads "Trust the Moon and You Will be Saved," can I get church status? Now all we need is a sparky name for the organization. Moonsavers? The Church of Blue?

And also, their top lips are unusually wide in proportion to their lower lips. It doesn't bother me at all - I've always thought Tierney was striking looking and an underrated actress. I think Wilson is phenomenally talented, and can look gorgeous or plain depending on the look of the role and her own interpretation of it. Even though Idris Elba is a dreamboat, it was Wilson who really pulled me into Luther.

Agree!!! What I'd really like to see as a result of this show is for the Notchurch of $$$ have its completely illegitimate church and tax-exempt status revoked. I can't believe the IRS (who audited me a billion years ago when I was waitressing and made a hot $4500 one year!) has bent over for these litigious con artists. Time for the IRS to grow some balls and get what's due from this greed-based cult.

KittyK, if you don't get it, I'm in your corner. I watched the four boring, uninspired, stale collections and kept thinking "the emperor's new clothes" and "there's no there there." I think it's all four of them and their very weak concepts - I'm rooting for Roberi, but mainly because I think he's the only one with any real ideas, although the outfits he showed last night were unimpressive. Lawrence, very cool woman but I expected so much when she was so happy about being able to work on her own collection; I thought she would produce some wild, fantastic designs but her stuff was so boring! Rik, well executed but completely uninteresting designs. And Erin, who I believe will win for no reason other than that the judges picked her name out of a hat (maybe they decided to prank their audience?) and declared her wonderfulness. Erin, like, well, like, she gets like some, um, like glue and crap and like, makes cutesy buttons and dribbles to decorate the like kid-in-a-craft-store line she is flogging. Gawd, when I saw that she had a mentor (who has nothing to do with clothing design) who talked her out of becoming a dental hygienist and into becoming a designer, I wanted to reach through the screen and strangle the mentor. Even if I could stand her special snowflake attitude and vocal fry, her own personal choices in clothing, hair and makeup would be enough to send me running in the opposite direction. What the HELL is with the denim diapers, the acid queen shoes and that fluffy yellow boa? What a crappy, forgettable season.

I'm no Alison apologist, but I have never thought she was responsible for Scotty's death. She did not push him in front of an ongoing car either intentionally or unintentionally, she shoved him away from her when he was trying to grope her in a thick fog that limited visibility, which is why the car struck him to start with. In a moment of panic that I think a lot of women can relate to, you don't see your surroundings, you only act on a primitive fight or flight reaction.

Daisy Mae is also a horrible dresser - what's with the tacky satin gym shorts? Despite not liking Erin at all, she did well tonight - athough the mealworm unconventional looked a lot like a costume Katy Perry would wear. Liked the jump suit, but big deal. Loved both of Roberi's looks and was happy he won the challenge. Lawrence gets points for finally doing something different, although it would be nice to see her do something without leather and the unconventional look really was kind of Zena warriror babe. Rik - unconventional was beautifully made but was boring and the second outfit looked like it was for juniors. Bye Cornelius, you finally got humbler but it didn't make you a better designer.

Thanks spiderpig and very simple, I'm going to have to read about Operation Snow White. I didn't even know who Leah Remini was until this (guess I missed and entire era on TV!), but even though she is a little over the top for me, if this series is even 20% accurate, maybe it will help topple this grifter/totalitarian (what a weird combo) organization.

Can someone please explain how a crackpot cult that believes in aliens got granted tax exempt church status?

I thought exactly the same thing, but it was more of a face palm than a groan. Next night I was watching Good Girls Revolt and there was another predictable femme masturbation scene and THEN I groaned thinking, oh no, now this is gonna be everywhere - next self love scene: Project Runway?

Mais oui!

Hahaha!!!!!!! Perfect!

Godawful. Barely made it through the insufferable first half - the professor is a walking cliche and didn't she say she had ALREADY read Noah's book and thought it was brave or wonderful or something? So she's actually reading that tripe a second time and is so turned on that she masturbates? Second half, fell asleep while Noah was still on the gurney, which I guess means I didn't care if it was a hallucination or not. This show has not so much run out of steam as it has dribbled out until it's empty. Wait, show, I know how to save you! Get Madame Eau de France's 22 yr old daughter to come to NY for heartbreak comfort and wind up in bed with. . . wait for it. . . Noah! And maybe her mom, too, why not? Don't even care enough to hate watch anymore, and I'm not into "not interested watch." Goodbye, Affair, you just sank back into the ocean.

Betsy McCall - LOL!!!!!

Ugh, Erin. Ugh, Erin's dress. It looked completely costume-y to me, like something Glinda would wear in a futuristic Wizard of Oz. I guess it's Erin for the win because the judges. . . uh. . . why?

I'm so disappointed in these shows that start so interestingly and then lose all their steam after the 1st or 2nd season. I've been meaning to try Rectify. I also get Acorn TV as an add-on to Amazon Prime, and I've been bingeing on all sorts of British TV series (some GREAT detective and police procedurals). I highly recommend it to anyone who like intelligent writing and real acting. All 18 seasons of Midsomer Murders (although I think you can get that on Netflix without an add-on) was what got me through the election!

Perfect assessment. I've already given up on hate watching Masters of Sex, and I think The Affair is on the short list to be next.

Blanking here, who is Iris? Erin: Well like I like I got like this pastel like puffy vision of a like, um, like a neoprene cloud kind of like, um, like walking the runway and I knew it was like perfect, so I'm not going to listen to like Tim or anyone else. Valley Girl speak (and those GODAWFUL shiny short-shorts she wore in some challenge), both circa 1985. Please Tim, let her fall on her puffy sword next time and get sent back to cartoon world.
