  1. Wait? Andy's still hosting WWHL? I thought Bethenny replaced him for that gig too.
  2. Had he freak out, it'd be all BS for the show because it's not like he never had a shave head. 2/3 of his portfolio here http://www.lookmodelagency.com/portfolio.aspx?nav=1&subnav=12&ltr=all&link=1&sexid=1&size=medium&modelid=796891&subid=10786&mainsubid=10786is with really little hair. (thanks to akr for posting that two weeks ago) And last year : http://www.forfashionfreeks.com/new-devin-lj-clark/?lang=fa (and already his finger on the mouth thingy).
  3. Not just you. He's really channeling Brad Pitt in Interview with the Vampire.
  4. I had nothing against Dorinda until watching this part of the reunion. I found her midly entertaining, a little cuckoo bordelining on batshit crazy but I didn't feel like judging her for being an emotional mess when she drinks. She was making sense most of the time, was funny, had a interesting backstory, so yeah, why not Dorinda on the show. Didn't care either way. But here, presumably sober.... she lost me with her nasty comments against Kristen while having nothing to say to Ramona who displayed much more disdain for her partner than Kristen ever did. Nothing. I was in disbelief after that. Bravo didn't even soften the blow for them, the clip before commenting on that began with Ramona insulting John (is John his name? I don't even know, that's how much I cared about that storyline...), then again Ramona insulting John, and only then the bit with Kristen, it was pretty straightforward for once: Ramona was the one talking shit about John first and at least twice. Come on! Dorinda had nothing to say to any other Housewives, agreeing with everything the women said about him during the reunion except for Kristen. And the poor woman didn't say anything about him that I recall, just that she felt uncomfortable at that time and chose to remove herself from the situation. And the attack about Kristen posing for topless photos, what the fuck was that? Did I miss the memo that I don't get to feel uncomfortable if a man is getting too graby for MY taste because I was sunbathing topless on a public beach ten years ago? Way to pull the rug under the fight for women to wear or do what they want without risking their safety. Dorinda is a smart cookie" said Bethenny. Yeah right. As if I'm gonna believe that now.
  5. She must have failed hard because I felt Luann threw her niece under the limousine so many times the poor girl must be part of the 5th avenue pavement right now.
  6. Methinks Kristen took a little bit too litteral "getting the claws out". *rimshot*
  7. If Brooks is faking cancer, or its seriousness, or the timeline of it and he was asymptomatic during the filming, I regret not believing in anything because I certainly hope karma will bite him in his now skinny ass or that there's indeed a Hell in which he'll rot forever. What does it say about you when everybody considers possible you're capable of doing something like that anyway?
  8. They have recast Lauren the "ex-maggot" (Nicholas Gonzalez). It's Kevin Alejandro now. I really like him, not that Gonzalez was bad or anything, so I'm happy is on board too.
  9. I really shouldn't read this topic in the morning before coffee : Bethenny's face frightens me in picture. Just in picture mind you. When she moves I'm ok but when she's still, she's like the face I don't want to see waking up in the dark, lurking at me while I sleep.
  10. Just saw the pilot and I loved it. Tom Ellis exudes charm and douchiness, Lauren German is awesome too so I'm sold on the cast. The case was whatever but the dialogues were good, I laughed a lot. Can't wait for the rest of the show! I hope this will not be another american missed opportunity for Tom Ellis.
  11. Soooooooooo now Sonja claims Madonna called after her fashion show? Did I really hear that? Full disclosure, I have a super vivid imagination so I have what my husband calls "guest stars" in my dreams: a character in it is "interpretated" by Stallone or whomever I saw on tv the day before etc. but even I know when I wake up it was just a dream : I can't fly, I didn't save a child from a vampire, I didn't really had lunch with my cousin who happens to have the face of Heidi Klum and Madonna hasn't called me after my fashion show.
  12. I chose to take "The Affair" approach about this. If people don't know it, it's a show where two points of view of the same scene are exposed. Because everybody's memory of an event is different and subjected to interpretation because of our own emotions and history, the same scene changes from one point of view to the other. Details like clothes, surroundings etc... One of the last episode had so many differences that people freaked a little about it. The author explained that the scene was seen so differently by the two characters because of what's important to them, of subconcious ways to sort out memories. So, I decided we see those scenes, where A agresses someone directly, via the PLL eyes and others A victims. To them, A is a giant, all powerful creep/murderer etc... So we see A like that, physical appearance varying because of how unreliable witnesses are. The only real scenes, scenes which can be trusted should be the final ones, just before credits, where the omniscient narrator takes over. (please note that I don't remember the 5 seasons enough to detect any plot holes in those scenes, it's just a satisfactory explanation I came up with to stay sane !) Thank you for posting those comments. Frankly, I didn't understand why all the fuss about Cece's genre. I stay on the boat with other people who think that A just happen to be crazy and transgender, not one being the cause of the other (whatever the good order is) and maybe in 10 years (or before, we can only hope...), it wouldn't be a problem to depict on tv because transgender people will be seen as part of humanity and not longer like freaks by some but I can see now how, in our time, it was truly insensitive and cruel, even unintentionally, to have the big bad wolf being one for the sake of a twist, especially for struggling youngsters who watch the show. So again, thank you. I never cease to learn from PTV forum. The diversity of the crowd here, offering every day different points of views about life is truly a gift.
  13. 3. That slayed me. This episode was super funny and that too was great : "yeah whatever Mona, stop fakecrying, your victim was a bitch, you got lucky and thank you for getting rid of her". Hop and on to the next reveal please!
  14. And lose the best part of the episode? Noooooooo! More hologram screen please! Seriously, I had to pause when the final lair appeared, it was so James Bond villain, I couldn't stop laughing. Even the sound effects were awesome. It made my day.
  15. http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-new-york-city/season/episode-720/videos?clip=2890211 A clip from the reunion titled "Does Sonja Believe Her Own BS?" Luann's dress is hurtful on the verge of offensive.
  16. I liked Bethenny's appartment, despite the white it seemed warmed. Except for "the art". I hated those especially the grey one in the bedroom. It's not art, it's glorified wallpaper. Regarding the rest of the episode, I'll quote Adam who summed it up during his first encounter with Dorinda : "All right. Yeah. Cool."
  17. Hahaha, thank you for the blast! "You writers are funny". Indeed !
  18. Oh thank you ! It's good I rewatch because obviously, there is some big blanks to fill ! I don't know why I thought he was a goner, but after all you said, probably because he was dead to me before the end! But I still love him at the moment, so I'll enjoy while it last!
  19. Hello, I'm just rewatching for the first time all the show. I had forgotten I fell in love with it first 5 minutes in! Anyway, episode 2, just after Brenda learned they didn't arrest the actor upon order from Captain Taylor, she storms off the room furious, decided to arrest him herself. Sergent Gabriel : - When you handcuff Dean Kingsley and put him in the backseat of your car, you're gonna have helicopters, news vans, and millions of television viewers, all escorting you back here to Parker Center. Brenda : - So? Gabriel : So, are you absolutely certain that you can, by yourself, drive back here without getting lost? Brenda (hope imgur hosting is working for me!) Gabriel: Thank you. Thank you. I know that was very difficult for you, but thank you. I loved it. Her face, Gabriel's intervention to help her... It reminded me how it broke my heart when Gabriel was gone* because their relationship was really awesome from the start, he was sooooooooo willing despite his team bitching at the beginning, so teacher's pet it was cute. * with that said maybe I'm not remembering that well, maybe he was an ass by the end and I forgot, it was almost 10 years ago after all!
  20. I watched the Daily Show during those last 5 years (I'm french, I had to wait to meet my awesome husband to learn about it!) and I don't know if I'm considered a long time viewer but I loved every second of it. I bawled my eyes out when every correspondant came one by one, even those I had never heard of or never knew they began here. They were happy to be there to say thank you and good bye and it was enough for me. It was about Jon at this time, it was not about the show or the viewers so I don't care if some people didn't like it, it was the proper send off to a man who contributed to change their life, for the better it seems. The piece about behind the scene people who made sure we got a show 4 times a week was cool also (I noticed too the mostly white crew but I was happy to see so many women). It was an awesome last show, it was heartfelt, Colbert got to me hard with his simple but beautiful hommage and I'm dying to know what I'll do know to get 150 morning coffees laughs without both of those guys. You Americans went to bed with them to finish your day on a positive note even when the subjects were infuriating, I got to start mine with the Daily Show and the Colbert Report and I know no better way to wake up than with laughters. It helped me during the hard times my family got through last year and the beginning of this year, and I can't thank Stewart enough for this!
  21. Big Ang is awesome in Mob Wives, she's the only one I could hang out with. This swap just made me tvlove even more! "This is gonna be a goody!" Didn't care much for the other wife I didn't know before and will forget about her in about 5...4...3...
  22. I hate to defend Rosie but just for that part, it wasn't just to be nosy, she thought there was a link with Blanca's murder if I'm not mistaken? I was doing something else while watching but didn't the women said the man she was having an affair with could be the killer so Rosie followed her to know who he could be?
  23. It was a very solid episode for this show! Am I suffering from a severe case of Stockholm Syndrom or is this show getting better season after season? The Tucker part had me laughing hard and my love for Brad grew again ten times. Peter Porte is really something else, his faces kill me every time. Regarding Ben being an ass, I have a hard time hating on him because of Jean-Luc Bilodeau. I thought he was the weak link of the cast at the beginning (well... for two and a half season really), but his comic timing improved and now, his delivery of his douchery makes me laugh. "I'm having an argument with my conscience. Aaaaaand he's down. We're going to Vegas!".
  24. Not against you as a fellow human but I take offense with that comment. Maybe I'm reading to much into it but I will do my drama queen for a moment either way! There you go : my father died 6 months ago. He was loved. My mother-in-law, devastated, chose to scatter some ashes in the Mediterranée. My sister and I reserved some of it before we did. I scattered some two months ago in the Atlantic when I went, my sister in the Indian ocean where she lives, and I still got a little bit in a kitchen cabinet, in a tupperware (not even a real brand one, a cheap plastic box) in case I go someday in Thailand on the beach he loved and couldn't go back to because of his fucking cancer. All of that we did just to make us feel better about his death. Are we bad daughters to not keep them safely in a beautiful urn? Is my mother-in-law a bad wife? Does it means we didn't love Dad? Or my MIL married him for his money and now that he's dead, couldn't wait to get rid of it? It's just a box, it's just ashes. My dad doesn't care anymore, he's dead. I don't believe in "the soul" just in consciousness, I don't believe in God or life after death, he didn't either. For some, ashes are just that, ashes, something that looks curiously like cat litter. Those ashes aren't my father. This box isn't his final home. Had he wished to be burried, I wouldn't have gone visit his grave after his burrial. The ceremony would have been the last time I ever saw it. It's just a stone, it's just a body, my Dad isn't in it anymore, why should I care about meat I won't eat? If my mother-in-law didn't want to scatter the ashes and wanted to keep them, I wouldn't have cared not being able to scatter some myself (even if I prefer we did it that way) and I certainly wouldn't visit her mantelpiece twice a year. Why judge the love Carole had for Anthony based on what happened to his urn or that she didn't go look at it for 15 years even if she travels a lot? If you must, judge from her book, from what she said but please don't judge because of a tradition some might not adhere to or what your take on this tradition is. People honor their dead differently from burial to cannibalism, grief is an intimate thing and unique to each person. Imho, what remains of the people we love who had the nerves to die on us is our memories of them. It's what we do with those that matters.
  25. It's just aweful as if Chateau Sheree was back with a vengeance. Seriously, for that price, they could have bought a real Champagne vineyard in France, mansion included and it still would have been less pretentious that this piece of crap (and a better investment). I like Heather enough but this house is lost on me !
