  1. It's certainly possible, and Scott will be no match for the Kris spin machine. But I dont think I've seen anything pro-scott. What Scott has done is shitty - to Kourtney and his children.
  2. If you go back the end of Game On Charles, it's because there's not just one A. You have the Liars in the movie room, threatening that they want Mona back. In the meantime Charles is watching all of this on his computers. Spencer sets fire to the video reel, Aria and Hannah say "let's torch the place." The fire starts to get out of control - Emily grabs the curtains and A is standing on the other side of the glass. In the meantime the buzzers start going off that Ali has arrived at the bunkers, but the fire is raging. Then you have A, at his computers, looking from scene to scene and slam his hand down and set off the alarm/sprinklers. Meanwhile, Ezra and Caleb have Ali and they hear the alarm going off from underground and see the smoke. I might have the order of all of this mixed up, but from what I can tell, there's no way the fire would be moving that fast, A could be standing outside the window of the room and be in the control room to monitor the girls and the fire and Ali's arrival at the dollhouse. There has to be more than 1. I'll have to rewatch it tonight to clarify the sequence of events, but was one of those rewatch moments where you say "wait a minute..."
  3. Kourtney is wearing too much. And you can tell, given the amount of makeup around her eyes, that she's been crying or not sleeping. Probably both. I was beginning to question if Kim was really pregnant at all. Most women show MUCH sooner with their 2nd pregnancy, your body just sort of pops. But she looks thicker here and you can see the bump, so, okay. I do wish she'd wear something a little more comfortable. I remember a scene in Thailand, I think it was, and she had on this long loose flowy dress, and her hair was down and curly, and she just looked so natural, pretty and comfortable. Why can she look so good back then when she's not pregnant, and now she looks like if you pop a pin in her she'll explode? It is possible to dress both comfortably and fashionably.
  4. I don't know why but this whole thing bums me out. I liked Kourtney and Scott together -- when Scott wasn't being a douchecanoe. But I guess that's the equivalent of Kourtney saying "he's good, 90% of the time!" Those children are adorable and deserve more than this. And quite honestly, so does Kourtney. She and Kendall are probably my favorites of the k-clan.
  5. He dated her in 2006, during one of his "breaks" from Kourtney. If she is 25 now, that would make him 23 and her 16, at the time.
  6. Well, I was wrong. Page 6 and hte NY Daily News are reporting it as well.
  7. I actually heard the exact opposite in the NY scene. Scott and Kourtney are great, the sobriety and addiction storylines are just that - storylines, and Scott is a good guy (although full of himself) playing his role to the fullest. A new season is coming up. They need flash and drama in a big way to keep up those ratings. Especially since Caitlin is trumping all of them just by walking down the street. Kimyes kid isn't dramatic enough. Khloe has no life. Kylie can only be 30% exploited on air, we will get the playboy shoot next season,Rob has legitimate problems and won't film (at least he's made that choice), Kendall is busy keeping her family away from modeling, and who cares about Kris? That leaves Kourtney. And so they go back to the storyboard and choose the best Scott falls off the wagon storyline they had and amp it up a bit. The ONLY time I bought the Scott drama (fully) was when Kourtney found out she was pregnant with Mason and that whole season. Now I don't think Scott is a saint, but if they do break up....it will be temporary and while the crew is filming,
  8. It looks like she's lost some weight. Scroll back a few pages and you can see the difference. Maybe 10 pounds or so. You can really see it in her upper body and shoulders.
  9. I don't know, A seems pretty ruthless to me this season...
  10. Moving on from the A-team theory of mine. All of this is a delusion of Aria in the psych facility. Kind of like that Buffy episdoe. She didn't move to Iceland after Ali went missing, she lost her marbles and got admitted into Radley. All of this is in her mind. Hence why continuity, characters, etc. don't make sense. It's also why Aria is only tortured with a cute hair style and taped to a wall with packing tape, while Emily gets a car driven into her house and Spencer slowly goes insane. They keep saying it all comes back to radley. The big reveal will be the doctors finally getting her meds right and her coming out of her delusioned state. Then during the time jump, she becomes AriA for real. That way, all of the original characters that we know and like and the Alli flashbacks are real, but the storylines since day 1, and the new characters that we can't stand, which have never really made much sense after MonA anyway, are false. Clean slate for Pretty Little Liars to get out of this mess but still keeping the characters. Except for Allison. Not sure how to fix that one, unless she was never declared dead to begin with and she was found while Aria was in Radley. I guess technically it could be any of the girls having this delusion. MonA, Spencer, or Aria make the most sense to me. I have trouble getting Hannah and Emily into that picture.
  11. WTF is up with everybody having been in Radley at some point? Is this common when you leave near a prominent psych facility? Do you tend to meet people who have been admitted? Or.... All of this is a delusion of Aria in the psych facility. Kind of like that Buffy episdoe. She didn't move to Iceland after Ali went missing, she lost her marbles and got admitted into Radley. All of this is in her mind. Hence why continuity, characters, etc. don't make sense. It's also why Aria is only tortured with a cute hair style and taped to a wall with packing tape, while Emily gets a car driven into her house and Spencer slowly goes insane. They keep saying it all comes back to radley. The big reveal will be the doctors finally getting her meds right and her coming out of her delusioned state. Then during the time jump, she becomes AriA for real. Huh. I'm going to go post that in the theories board. That way, all of the original characters that we know and like and the Alli flashbacks are real, but the storylines since day 1, and the new characters that we can't stand, which have never really made much sense after MonA anyway, are false. Clean slate for Pretty Little Liars to get out of this mess but still keeping the characters. Except for Allison. Not sure how to fix that one Or maybe it's Spencer in Radley after Toby went A and got killed. She never got out.
  12. OMG. Stop the presses. Who cares about Caitlin. Who cares about the Kardashian/Jenner kids having genuine fun together. Who cares about North still looking adorably confused. KANYE WEST IS SMILING. And I mean all of that sincerely. Oh Kanye. Hopefully somebody will tell you that when you smile, you look less like a colossal asshole and more like a human being.
  13. Let's be fair - do we really care what happened to Thalia anyway? She was ultimately just a pointless plot device anyway. I'm happy with her disappearing into the Rosewood woodwork. These girls need to just leave their cell phones at home and go tell the police about Charles DiLaurentis. Tell them they didn't say anything before because they had never heard of a charles dilaurentis before, they thought it was Andrew. Then Ali asked her dad, Andrew was released and that was that. Show the detectives one of the messages from a cell phone and be done with it. I mean come on. There's no such thing as anonymity when it comes to any form of electronic media. They can subpeona the phone company to provide the owner of the blocked cell phone. This isn't rocket science. Putting spoiler tags around this because I can't remember if it's a spoiler or theory:
  14. The fact that she was on NPR or the fact that listeners are pulling their funding? No surprise about the outraged listeners. Look at the threats to drop subscriptions when she was on Vogue. And that made more sense than NPR.
  15. I feel like I need to stand up for the 40 year olds. I'm 39. My friends and I dress better than Ali. And our hair isn't frozen in place. They are making her a 40 year old from 1986.
  16. I don't understand how/why Andrew thinks he girls are making everything up? Why the town would think they are making everything up? Why are people suspicious of them?
  17. I am so disgusted by what I just read. Kylie, if you or any of your "people" read this site - Tyga does not love you. He does not care about you. He does not RESPECT you. No respectable artist (or human being) would write such disgusting things about a woman, let alone his girlfriend. No respectable artist (or human being) would make a mockery about an issue like statutory rape. Tyga is a low life. He is not a man. You can do a million times better than him. And hell, if you want to get flat out superficial about it, he's really fucking ugly, too. I'm really concerned about Kylie. I don't see this ending well for her. I think she is incredibly insecure. I think she suffers from body dysmorphia disorder. I think she's been exploited, both by her family and now by her alleged boyfriend. She is still a teenager, her brain hasn't even fully finished maturing and won't for another 5-6 years. Her alleged "maturity" I think is on an incredibly superficial level - traveling on her own, her business deals, etc. and in reality, while she's 17 going on 18, she's actually mentally around 15 years old. Why? Because that's the age where she made that leap away from whatever "normal" existence she had. It's the age that she dropped out of school and started homeschooling. Her fashion choices started to get more and more risque.She was suddenly no longer surrounded by peers her own age who did things like cheerleading and yearbook. There were no teachers on the sidelines. There was no "grounding" element in her life, no matter how small. There was no structure and no boundries. And teens need that. They will say that they don't, and they will push against it, but any psychologist will tell you, they need it to develop properly. I think Kylie is incredibly lost. I can only imagine the things she's doing with Tyga, the things that he's asking her to do, the things that she thinks is okay. I feel like I'm slowly watching the exploitation of a child, and I seriously can't stomach it anymore. I hope to god somebody of "legitimate" authority steps in and intervenes.
  18. I have no idea where to put this but...lifetime is doing a 90210 behind the scenes special. I wonder if there will be anything new that we don't already know. http://www.people.com/article/lifetime-making-beverly-hills-90210-unauthorized-movie
  19. Did Khloe and Jamie get along? I seem to remember that she wasn't that fond of him, thought he was a bad influence, a hanger-on, etc.
  20. http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/kim-kardashian-shares-intimate-new-photos-of-north-wests-baptism-2015156 I'm cracking up at Kim in this picture. I get why she's wearing the veil, as orthodox churches have very strict dress guidelines, but I can't help but think that she's trying to channel Mary herself in these pictures, she's probably up there thinking "Oh blessed child of Yeezus." And Kanye. OMFG. You are in a church. In the Holy Land. For you daughter's baptism. Could you have at least put pants on that don't have a DAMN HOLE IN THEM???? For somebody constantly running his mouth about "respect" he clearly has a thing or two to learn about that, AND maturity. The pic of North asleep in Kim's arm is sweet.
  21. Yes! Scott cracks me up. That one ranks right up there with "you know what to do..." as he casually strolled out of the bridal suite on Kim's wedding day to Kanye.
  22. I hate that they see nudity as fashion. To quote Carolina Herrera, "How can you be a fashion icon if you’re not wearing clothes?" As the mother of 2 young children, including a 4 year old girl, the being naked trend concerns me and I can't help but hope that the pendulum starts to swing the other way a little bit. You know...back to tank tops and shorts, as opposed to butt cheeks and side boob. Just saying. I don't think that's too much to ask. I hate any time Khloe tries to be edge with her makeup, being dark or bright lips. It makes her look like a casting reject from Twilight.
  23. By the way, I just want to add that I thought Aria acted bizarre this episode. Strange enough to put me on the AriA bandwagon somewhat. Also, what was up with Toby and Ali? That whole "I'm glad it's over" convo was loaded with innuendos. I just don't know about what?
  24. I don't think you understand how a girls body changes in that 10 year time span. If Sasha started the show at 14, or even as young as 12, it's not a matter of her significantly gaining weight, at least not in the way that you understand it. When a woman is that young, she's still, essentially, a girl. Her body has just started to go through a maturation process that can change your entire shape, in ways that you can't predict or expect and in ways that you can't control. Troian started the show at 25. Lucy and Ashley were 21. Shay was 23. They were well past that point in their lives. As a a girl develops, they will carry their weight differently. Some will carry it in their lower body, his and legs. Others will carry it in their upper body. Some will remain naturally thin. Others just won't be able to maintain or even get back to that shape no matter what. Your statement as she's the only one to gain significant weight doesn't quite work here in that context - the female body doesn't work that way. Couple that with her statement about hormone imbalance and there's your answer right there. To characterize it as "significant" weight gain and compare it to women who were 10-12 years her senior is fundamentally unfair. In other words, you're comparing apples and oranges. I mean...even her voice is different. She is not 12/13/14 years old anymore. Look at a picture of yourself at 12. Do you look the same? Go out and look at a group of 13 or 14 year olds. They look so young, younger than you envision in your head. As others have said, the costume department is doing her no favors. It's like I'm watching Kelly Taylor turn beige all over again (showing my age here). Instead of always sleeveless, she'd be better in short sleeves. Instead crew neck, she'd be better with vneck and scoop neck. Instead of tops that add "weight" and layers - cardigans, ruffles - she should be in less busy tops. And quite honestly, the girl has awesome legs, and great height. They should be playing that up. Instead of trying to hide her. Ashley Benson killed it in this episode. I absolutely love the character of Hannah. That scene in her bedroom, telling her mother what had happened, brought me to tears. Emily at the gun range was a level of intensity that I've never seen from her. And Spencer...poor Spencer. I feel like I'm watching Spencer just slowly and painfully lose herself. A has fucked with these girls for so long, and we've watched Ashley and Emily get stronger. But Spencer has lost so much, she still has her mind, but I don't know... I think if we were to see these girls 30 years from now, it's Spencer who would be having the most trouble. If I were a Rosewood parent, I'd be moving my family out of town immediately. One other thing - did anybody besides me get the idea that A is still watching? I mean obviously s/he is. But some of the filming had the "A looking in on the girls" vibe to it. For example, after the mattress in the hallway scene, it ended from the perspective of somebody, or a camera, observing the scene from above. There was another scene with Aria, I can't remember which one, that also took on the angle of somebody observing, rather than being in the actual moment. I thought it was a nice touch.
