  1. So does Sean Hannity write these episodes now? My goodness the cop-a-ganda and utter bs was astounding. I love how often L&O visits the Black Rage trope. I can't believe my once favorite show has devolved this much. I knew the show was in trouble 15 years ago when I stopped watching but ffs this is awful.
  2. Now this is quality reality TV. I like Mauricio. I thought it was weird when he was meditating on the couch in his office and Ben said he was "melting down". Dude what Mo was doing was the opposite of melting down. I like the Umansky girls for the most part. They're leaps and bounds better than the Hamlin girls. I like how they stick together, protect each other, and have sleepovers. I'm not a fan of the vocal fry but it's better than most. Was production auditioning different people to be the villain or were Melissa and Michelle really that awful? Looking forward to season 3 of this more than season eleventy-billion of RHOBH.
  3. Privilege is never having to worry that you won't make it home from a traffic stop. You don't have to acknowledge your privilege but you shouldn't diminish someone else's experience of the world. Garcelle flat out said she doesn't always enjoy Dorit's company or want to hang out with her so next season is already shaping up to be better than this one. Why do they need a 3part reunion for such a boring season? Garcelle needs a stylist. Her outfits this season have been less than flattering. However, Dorit's reunion get up makes that criticism seem harsh.
  4. omg this show is terrible. I despise the sister. why does she torment Nell? Maybe it's Fellowes writing or just the way people communicated at the time but it's maddening that someone hasn't just told Clara to chill out. If you don't know what the rift is between the brothers just stay out of it until you get more info. She's such a busybody. Ensuring all of her servants could read should have been her focus from the start. And another thing: The costumes on this show are disappointing. Bridgerton and The Gilded Age have ginormous budgets so maybe I need to temper my expectations.
  5. I didn't find the female lead likeable at all. She was nasty to Dex at every turn. I know everyone thinks sarcasm is cool but it's a coward's way of being an asshole.
  6. Just started watching...is Mel Gibson in the whole series?
  7. Was the romance with the heart surgeon known about? He was Muslim and she absolutely would have had children with him. Even if it weren't, why would Dodi have thought William would be different from his father in wanting to accept all faiths? People who are discriminated against aren't always aware of the reasons why.
  8. She's not just the mother of his children, she's the mother of the future king of England. Mou-Mou thought he'd have a relationship with the royals BECAUSE the mother of the future king of England and his son died together. He feels about the monarchy exactly the way a colonizer would want the colonized to feel. He aspired to their class, and their way of living, they in turn, shunned him for his lofty ambitions (uppity/upstart) and he was grateful they cast a glance his way. When Diana says it's easier with her gone ...where does Camilla fit in at any official ceremony if the mother of the future king is present? It's a wild conundrum for the monarchy. I didn't like ghost-Diana. I think flashbacks would have been better and less creepy. I wonder if the episodes' equal weighting of the reaction to Dodi's death and reaction to Diana's in the episode is a nod to the way he was excluded from most of the media coverage at the time. This was a technically exceptional episode of TV unfortunately the material is just too well-troded over.
  9. Lol who's definition of "calm life"? Lunch with friends like Elton John may feel calm, and normal to Diana but not HMTQ. The writers' approach is blowing my mind. What if the whole romance was blown up by the tabloids and Dodi was going to be out of the picture as soon as Diana returned to London?
  10. THIS! Are there women on the writing staff? They're going to have to steal someone from Grown-ish if they're going to continue with this storyline. Rita's! I don't know that I've ever seen Rita's in NYC but they're all over New Jersey. It's little things like that this show does so well. Creating subtle familial ties as well as major connections.
  11. How dare a woman appear in public in anything less a fully made up face? It's not like we have anything else to offer except our looks...🤦🏾‍♀️ I'm sick of that tuft of hair on Toby's head-- cut it off for chrissakes the rest of the hair won't come back to keep that hair company. I have been looking at fat men with pretty wives on TV for my entire life but Kate gets excessive vitriol and dissection. I bet Toby had to move his stomach to see his dick for years, but nobody went after him the way they go after Kate. I know Beth can't do anything right--god forbid a black woman express joy or frustration, but the dance was salsa, hence the music. Here are some moves.
  12. Jock Ewing said to JR that you have to leave a man with his dignity, you can't humiliate him because he won't have anything to lose when he strikes back. Logan Roy just learned that lesson the hard way. Excellent episode! I'm so glad Tom told Shiv how unhappy he's been. I think she'll appreciate him standing up to her and loving him, or I'm a mug [shrug].
  13. Apologies EB. For some reason the system applies the quote to where I copied it from not the original author.
  14. @JudyObscure said Tell this bullshit to Barack Obama, Kate Beckinsale, Angelina Jolie, Jay-Z, and Lebron James. It depends on the parent like everything else. Jack II's song was generic af but the point was to demonstrate he's famous/successful. I guess the showrunners didn't want to license something for a short scene. The only newbie that didn't really fit for me was the soldier.
  15. but wouldn't anyone with a moral compass feel superior to Logan Roy? I'd be smug around him because despite his money he's a piece of shit whose kids would happily push him under a train.
