It is not a matter of people of Italian descent from NJ or NY or anywhere else. My grandmother was from southern Italy and she was a truly terrible cook. Some of her siblings were good cooks; some were not. As you say, regardless of where people are from / their ethnicity, many people can cook good Italian food. It's not something in the blood of the chef. You lucked into a future husband who made a good traditional ragu. Even calling it gravy is not across the board in NJ or NY or elsewhere on the east coast. Calling it gravy became more widespread when it was used on the Sopranos and is common in some areas, but is not universal. In many areas the standard sauce has a much higher tomato to meat ratio. A traditional ragu or Sunday gravy is meat forward with minimal tomato. With this long aside, there are many sauce variations that can be made in a lot less time that are really good. But neither of these women are cooks which is okay. The ridiculous part is them all doing the presumption that being of Italian descent means you can and want to cook more time intensive Italian recipes and Louie from Lakeland acting like Melissa is failing by not cooking food that I am pretty damn sure his drunk mother wasn't providing.

I'm not sure if there is an issue with the survey. Mods do not take it. Currently Primetimer is a free site. Last night's outage was unexpected. The one last week was from a failed system upgrade. This is not common, but the timing has been terrible for LAL.

That was this week's greatest risk of dying from terminal eyeroll. Chance can't provide for more than his next beer, and I'm not sure how he's doing that. He is such a loser. Tayler is an idiot for having a baby with this guy. Makes it harder to scrape him off. The food thing with Melissa, Donna, and Louie gets me. The saga begins with Donna serving plain noodles when Louie was released from prison. Donna does have jarred sauce at her house. When visiting Melissa, Louie comments on her frozen meatballs. I'm guessing drunko Donna didn't exactly make her Nana's recipe from the old country when cooking for him. Again, plain noodles. Now Melissa serves plain spaghetti rather than popping open a jar and Donna has the nerve to comment on the lack of sauce and prefers angel hair pasta. They all need to either cook better or STFU about what they are served. Louie's hands seem to work. If he wants homemade sauce, he can get to it. Give Donna a six-pack of swill and set her up in the living room.

In one of Donna's scenes, there was a half used jar of Prego on the counter. Melissa may not have had time to cook up a ragu but she could have opened a jar. Did anyone tear up at Redd's goodbye to his PS5? He'll miss it so.

Bobbo didn't assault Chance but he certainly scared him. Poor widdle Chancie looked like he was going to cry. Given the way that Chance treats Tayler, it was good to see him looking scared. The man is garbage. So Melissa wants a new nose; that is, something smaller. And she's willing to pay through the nose for it. <rim shot>. Of course she does. None of these clowns could afford plastic surgery if they weren't on the show. Those sharp dollars are burning a hole in her pockets. Donna, the server of plain noodles, criticized Melissa's cooking. Simply being of Italian heritage does not make someone a good cook. You need aptitude and interest. Neither of them has shown an interest in cooking, so they both serve basic food. That high horse has no rider.

We lost another week of live chat. Dreams that were thwarted: What happened: Here's hoping we are ready to go next week.

In the beach commercial the family is simply unremarkable and boring. I don't care who gets to the beach first and gets the chairs. In the ski ad, I actively hate this family. The whining. The screaming. Two vehicles driving back to get "dad!" Leave the whiny jackass at home or, better yet, hit him with the car and knock him out so we don't have to hear him whine. I can imagine the ad execs damn near breaking their arms patting themselves on the back for what they think is the most hilarious ad campaign ever. It is so bad.

Does anyone know whether the rims on his truck were damaged? After all, he bought those rims for the girls! 😁🙄

I would love a scene of her flipping out and trashing some meth head's place while they sit outside, casually smoking a cigarette, totally non-plussed.

Original air date 2023.12.29 Bobbo's coming! While I know it will disappoint since Bobbo likely has sense enough not to assault Chance on air, we can all dream.

That whole sequence was so fake. Lindsey yet again tried to tell us what a big player she was. After all, she used to earn $20K in a weekend. 🙄 Who doesn't walk around with $500 in their pocket ready to hand over to the least scary collections squad ever? If he didn't pay up will Lindsey throw a fit? Will Syx breathe her meth head breath on him?

Folks, The site is back up. Unfortunately we missed our weekly live chat. Juju and Montana Millz did an especially tacky baby sex reveal; we learned that Sarah has a tummy tuck after her boob job and Shawn now has a tow truck; Kerok's family is almost 100% messy; Lindsey tried to act while doing her collections; Donna and Melissa did act, like children that is, while telling Louie he is not mature enough to drive from Florida to New Jersey; Joynomi cried, Redd lied, and no one was surprised. We missed out on many snark opportunities. Next week, we'll need to bring our best to make up for this week. Also, you can now talk about the episode in the episode thread. Have a great holiday weekend, bunkies!

Primetimer's article "By Devolving Into Free PR for the Monarchy, The Crown Forever Tarnished Its Legacy" shares the opinion of many posters after viewing the entire season. Note, the article does contain mild spoilers if you have not seen the series ending. They talk about the shift seen in seasons 5 and 6 from the earlier, stronger seasons.

When I think of love and light, somehow the Slatons don't come to mind.

Lindsey spent 4 years in federal prison, got out, and spent her ever so quality time with Flappy. She threw a fit while being filmed, breaking things and carving words into his desk. Flappy was unflappable, casually smoking a cigarette while sitting outside. Lindsey then got arrested for possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. She was out on bond for those charges when she got arrested again for possession of a stolen vehicle and property. There may be a fleeing arrest in there somewhere. She then went back to the federal pen for parole violation which she claims was from the Flappy incident and had to complete another 18 months. She had been out for 7 weeks. She blames Flappy for her choices. I mean, if it's not other women being jealous of her beauty, it's Flappy. Amirite? She's got out of federal prison in April 2022. So our lady of the best life choices has been out of prison having completed the time for her federal charges, on bond for two rounds of state charges (she's got charges, bruh!), and convinced that all of this should just go away because none of it was her fault and she's been good for over a year. Now she is again on camera going to pick up money owed to her. Of course, if that money is the profits from drug sales or if she threatens or assaults someone, she could get more charges. Charges are like Christmas cookies; one is never enough.

As portrayed, William and Kate are equals to watching paint dry. These characters do not carry a story.

I enjoyed how Lindsey's lawyer decided all sentences would be served consecutively to come up with 40 years. Didn't we learn from Flappy that all of Lindsey's problems are because the other women are jealous? Hers is another child I feel for. Lindsey's daughter is very old for her age. Swaee is a cutie. He is so enthusiastic and charming. I am afraid he's in for heartbreak. After having moved in Redd, Joynomi talks about how tough it will be on her son if this doesn't work out. Ya think? Would have been nice if she considered that before she brought Redd to New Mexico and told Swaee to call him Dada.
