I thought Whoopi had said she used Mounjaro already? So she's not being secretive about how she lost weight. I noticed a while back how small she was when she wore a blazer one day

With Joy Reid out, I hope they move Psaki there, love her. I wanted her in a daily slot for a while now, but at the same time Ialso liked most of those personalities and wouldn't have wanted any of Maddow, Wagner, Hayes, Melber, Tur, Reid, or Wallace pushed out to make room. Now that Reid is out unfortunately, I hope they give her a slot now since Wagner will be back to her regular slot in two months anyway. I really hope they don't put that Weekend crew there... I don't mind them, but I prefer both Psaki and Wagner to them. The only other person I'll miss of those cut is Phang. I remember thinking it was a shame about Tiffany Cross getting cut a year or two back, too. I feel like Sanders-Townsend is worse than either of them... She's grown on me a tiny bit, but she's still the worse thing about The Weekend for me.

Stephen A. Smith has good points occasionally, but it's that 5 or 10% that he says that spoils the lot for me. For example, saying Democrats didn't stand for the working class despite things like Biden being the first president to join with a union on strike, or Kamala campaigning on giving some amount of money to help people buying their first home, or how during Biden's State of the Union (coincidentally since they mentioned Biden's SotU this morning, lol) he tied Republicans down to supporting Social Security by spotlighting their desire for cuts. So while it's true that Trump has a mandate, Smith's being false by saying Democrats didn't align themselves with the working class, imo. They did, it's just that it didn't matter because the winds had shifted. The same with him claiming Biden and Kamala were for open borders. Thankfully Sunny confronted him on the craziest thing he said the last time he visited, as far as calling Trump "normal." And, Good Lord, he sounded full-blown crazy in that clip Alyssa played with all the shouting in an empty room. I was hoping they would talk about the meeting with Zelensky again since Joy wasn't there on Monday. I notice there was a key detail they left out of the duscussion; I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned by Sunny if nobody else. Also, I forgot to say thst Bruce Vilanch on Monday was a delight.

I agreed with Joy that Lewinsky isn't some kind of MeToo victim--she was the pursuer in that affair. And the talk about frontal lobes is always such nonsense to me. If you're old enough at 18-24 years old to join the military, have a child, or work in the White House (!), then you are in charge of your own actions. But as per usual, the conversation around Lewinsky is what's nonsense, not really Lewinsky herself. You simply have shills like Alyssa who try to poison the conversation by attempting to conflate her with MeToo because it's politically expedient to do so, while they make excuses for politicians who've gone a hundred times further beyond cheating on their wife these days.

Jeez, Alyssa was terrible on Wednesday. She was going to make sure Sunny didn't even get to speak the one time while she speaks after every single person, not even letting Whoopi go to break without trying to speak after her. She gets her turn to speak just like everyone else, so I'm not sure why the show doesn't rein her in already. Maybe time to think about cutting her mic the way they'd considered with McCan't?

I'm not sure I'd agree that anyone on the current panel (or from the past for that matter) other than Alyssa would really work under that label. Sunny and Ana tried out with a whole host of people before being picked because of positive audience feedback. And when they tried out, it wasn't like with Alyssa, for example, where only those of one particular identity (race, political view, whatever, etc.) were considered. There were a lot of very different people who tried out at the same time as them. Bevy Smith, Sherri, Stacey London, Padma Lakshmi, Cristela, Kelly Osborne (ugh), and more whose names I don't remember.

Alyssa: I don't want anyone to ever look at me and say, 'You were a DEI hire.' I think that's been said quite a few times about her here already actually, that they only auditioned conservatives when they hired her...🫢 I know from Sunny's face she wanted to say, "You WERE!" LOL

The clue could still finish before going to the person who buzzed first though. *shrug*

That doesn't really make sense though. Everyone would still "have a chance" if you could buzz during the clue, snd contestants who buzzed early would have the risk of thinking they know the answer only for the end of the clue to hint at somethig different than they initially thought.

That's weird, I never knew that? I wouldn't have thought it would matter if they buzzed during the question being read. I wonder why they do that? Loved Joy's skepticism that Alyssa thinks the problem was Biden not dropping out sooner instead of the problem being that Biden shouldn't have given in to the criticism of people like George Clooney.

Was it Franken? For some reason, I thought she and Ana were on with Pat Sajak from Wheel of Fortun Ana and Sunny are both very smart. Almost everyone who ends up on the mainline Jeopardy is intelligent, but only one person can win every show.

That was the first time I'd seen that clip of Kamala with the man who refused to shake her hand. Vile.

Adam did a great job. Alyssa defending Project 2025 now... Shocker. Like Sunny, I believe who a person is when they show you the first time.

The woman was always far right. She was completely deranged on this show. She only feigned being a "moderate" when certain topics came up or with the occasional guest because she liked cashing in on her last name even though she's nothing like her father. There's a reason she was fired from his campaign back when--she was too extreme (and nuts).

Looking forward to Lambert and Menzel.
