Haha! That's an interesting comparison. Well, until Amber came along Katie was the babysitter. So I guess their bad blood goes back a long way.

IOU Payne, My mind went there right away, too. I would totally expect this to happen to Jack Abbott considering he has PRS. (Pussy Recognition Syndrome) Maybe Jack can come to town and he and Rick can go to a 12 step meeting together for soap opera characters with PRS. Ollie should go too. One thing that irked me when Nicole was at the shoot - she was introduced to "Oliver" and then immediately called him "Ollie". Who does that?

But Maya might not want to be so public about that part of her life. If or when it comes to this.

It seems to me that when LG got hit by that car BB must have taken the next chapter or two from the script and just ripped those pages out and thrown them away. (Or burned them in the fireplace along with Maya's note to Nicole.) So fast forward over whatever events would have transpired to organically make the changes in Rick and Maya's behaviors. Rick becoming more sane and Maya starting to get tired of his little dictator act. It would be nice if there had been an evolution to have the other characters start liking Maya before her big reveal. I tend to think that now that the cat is out of the bag to the viewers it won't be long before the characters learn the secret too. So there won't be any time for Maya to get anyone in her corner before everyone finds out. The other day when Pam was listening at the door, when Maya and Nicole were talking, I was hoping at that point that she'd overhear the secret. There are always so many ways a story can go. I just hope this one is a fun ride and not a heavy-handed after school special. Like Rick says to Maya, "I've always wanted to be a girl, too!"?

I was trying really hard not to let myself think something like that. But the article Artsda posted has assuaged my fears. And here I thought it was going to be drunk Brooke who was going to bring the zany fun, the Rat Circus as it were.

"Myron? Myron? MYRON!"

Or "mime".

I can't stop laughing at that.

Well here's something else from the headlines. Wouldn't it make a great storyline if the little dictator said some to the press, (Jarad of Eye on Fashion of course), and some celebrity mounted a boycott of FC. Just like this: http://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/mar/16/victoria-beckham-elton-john-dolce-gabbana-gay-adoption-row http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/03/16/ricky-martin-ryan-murphy-and-others-show-support-for-elton-john-dolce-gabbana/ (Elton John boycotting Dolce and Gabbana) Can't wait to see how this plays out.

I was just reading an article titled, How The Luxury Fashion Industry Became All Business. And this reminded me what's going on at FC: http://www.npr.org/2015/03/14/392788955/how-the-luxury-fashion-industry-became-all-business

It's weird and disturbing. I'll be so glad when these two part ways forever. There's so much about them that is not fun to watch. What is fun to watch is SK as an earnest Deacon. He's really bringing it. He's the reason I'm watching right now and enduring the cbs website in order to do so. BTW, thank you's to everyone posting the deleted and extra scenes here. It is usually impossible for me to watch them on the cbs site.

I'm not ready for Brooke to sober up. Keep drinking Brooke! You haven't even touched on the misery of alcoholism. C'mon, you can do it girl!

It was a very good scene. I also like that they've been showing Deacon drinking beer and always asking Quinn to pick up more beer for months. They've been building this and they are not forgetting his history. Well done all around.

I'm waiting for Brooke to do something really cringeworthy to make it all worthwhile. She's just warming up right now.

Nicole doesn't have anyone to boink in the tub.... yet. (I think mandatory boinking in the tub in front of the window is in the lease.)

The drain got clogged.

And now that quote made me think of this qoute from Justified. " If you meet an asshole in the morning he's the asshole. If you meet assholes all day you're the asshole. Funny thing, when I read that top quote it made me think of something I heard JLo say on some talk show. She basically said, if you're having a problem with someone it's not them it's YOU. YOU have to try harder. For some reason I can't get that out of my head. Brooke must have a cast iron stomach.

That's how I remember it. I thought it was established that in the beginning Eric was just a dufus playboy yet a talented designer and it was Stephanie that was the driving force behind FC. This recent blabbering from Eric about how his father didn't love him as much as he loved Dickie Smothers because he was so driven to succeed really came out of left field.

Ba-dum-bump!

Technology is not Eric's friend.

Thanks for posting that classic. Always a treat.

The best line you can use when you're talking about this show is, "When Taylor came back from the dead the second time..." As crazy as this show gets, nothing tops that one. And it's something that you need to work into at least one post you make. ;D

*music plays* Posse Posse Posse - boink!

You'd think she'd know, being such a gossip herself. All I can think when Liam talks to her is, Liam do you know what a gossip your girlfriend is? She can't keep your hostile takeover secret quiet!!! But I don't think the show is going to address that. So I just watch and shake my head.

Thanks for posting that. I really enjoyed it. I cried, but I enjoyed it.
