Real Housewives in the Media
Pondlass1 replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I read somewhere that they’re maybe going to revamp the show around Leah. I guess they want to target a younger audience, but i won’t bother to watch that. They should take the word Housewives out of the title and change it to Drunks of NY. -
S05.E11: Public Displays Of Contention
Pondlass1 replied to OnceSane's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After
I agree with others that this series has become more and more ‘scripted’ as seasons have gone by. They’re not given a script of course, but bad behaviour is very much encouraged and only those segments make it to screen. But I don’t understand Michael. He comes across as a pleasant chap, intelligent and not bad looking. His life in Nigeria doesn’t seem that bad, certainly not the poverty level of Rose, and his family is apparently decent and loving. Most if them want the Green Card, and he was keen to go to the USA and meet Trump at first, but lately he’s said he’d be ok marrying and staying in Nigeria (which loudmouth Angela nixed right away). Sometimes I think he really does care for or maybe even ‘loves’ the chain smoking aging beast. I want to yell RUN! But I don’t think he ever will. Its so weird. -
S05.E11: Public Displays Of Contention
Pondlass1 replied to OnceSane's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After
TLC has gone over the top with these ridiculously manufactured storylines. I can’t get riled up because it’s all make believe. -
Well one thing we all know about Jensen... he’s not a big fan of super stardom with paparazzi around every corner. He’d never chase that. It would always be about the challenge. I didn’t realise it’s only 8 episodes per season... possibly Eric will feature Soldier Boy heavily in season three (he’s nuts if he doesn’t), but Jensen will still be left with free time to pursue other gigs. He’s aging well. He’s extremely talented and very professional. He’s got a long career ahead. I watched YouTube video recaps of season one. The Boys is not my cup of tea.. I’m not a superhero fan and they’d better not put him in a mask. But it’s exciting, isn’t it? The most exciting part is that when Jensen is filming in Toronto and looks up at the clouds... I’ll be seeing those same clouds.

S12.E19: 21st Century Sonja
Pondlass1 replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I just cannot get over how rude they are to the staff. They continue yelling at each other and flapping and waving arms about in the air while wait staff are attempting to clear the table. It’s so rude. The words ‘thank you’ once in a while would be nice. Still, at least these gals eat..... Dorit spends hours and hours getting her hair coiffured to sit down at a breakfast table, whereas Sonja shows up at her fancy dancy clothing launch with bed head. Looked like she’d just got up. Dorinda is horrible. And I don’t think it’s for the cameras or grabbing the spotlight or for a storyline. In fact I don’t think the producers of RHONY bother much with storylines, they ply them with free alcohol and let rip. There’s no hope for Dorinda, she goes off on a vicious sarcastic ridden rampage whenever she feels the least bit slighted. It’s not fun to watch. She thinks she’s entitled to behave this way I guess. -
Is the US version of Prime the same as Canadian? Anyone know? Because Canadian Netflix, for instance, offers about a quarter of US Netflix offerings but I think the price is higher. Supernatural isn’t available on 🇨🇦Netflix. 😡 YouTubers often hype movies on Netflix, but when I check none of them are on the Canadian version. I love being Canadian but we really get screwed sometimes. When season 3 begins I’ll quit Netflix and sign on for Prime. The free shipping isn’t worth it as most of the items I order don’t qualify anyway. All these burgeoning streaming services are just a cash grab. Soon we’ll be forking out for YouTube. /getting off soapbox now.

S10.E15: Sex, Lies and Text Messages
Pondlass1 replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
I guess the producers think they have ratings winner in nasty Brandi. She certainly swung a lot of power in last night’s episode. Flounces in, sits at the table, the witches lean in with hungry attention, but Brandi doesn’t know everyone... so can they leave? Mid-mouthful Teddi’s friends must remove themselves as per Brandi’s wishes. Salivating, the witches lean in again, the full spotlight on Brandi ... who apparently cannot tell a lie.🙄 I thought puppygate was beyond silly, but this season takes the cake. -

Pondlass1 replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
If Denise had shut them down with “its one of your fucking business” right at the start when first confronted .... what would the rest of the season be about? They’d have nothing. And I couldn’t care less about this storyline anyway. Just don’t bring Brandi back. She’s nasty. Kyle has the same gleeful expression when gossipy shit is hitting the fan... reminds me of Tamra Judge. -
Ariele seems suddenly lost without her mother.

S05.E10: Drawing The Line
Pondlass1 replied to OnceSane's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After
Everyone on this show is over the top acting out for the cameras and waiting to be mic’ed before they start stupid shit. It’s all for ratings and shock value. Coltee’s thunder thighs, Angela’s overstuffed bra and erratic rants, the Ugly Americans visit Moldova, granny gimmee the money, etc., etc. All for ratings. But it’s all not so amusing when it comes to Pole and Kariney. In fact it’s unsettling and sad. Kariney most likely has postpartum depression. She needs intervention and I’m hoping TLC has stepped up. They should not be filmed any more. I don’t follow the cast members on social media but I hope she is getting help. The marriage needs to end. Pole is scary and probably needs psychiatric help too. -
S10.E14: That's Not Amore
Pondlass1 replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
She chewed for a bit too but the camera cut before swallowing. I’d actually drifted off during yet another Denise OWN IT! take down but Rinna with food in her mouth startled me awake. 😱 -
I don’t pay close attention to some of the couples’ drama, but why did the cheese guy have to confess to the dad? Is it yet another culture thing? Brittany’s gravelly voice and constant grin drives me up the wall. Jahoon’s mother... the expression says it all, no need for translator app.

These Spoilers Suck: Bitter Speculation About SPN Spoilers
Pondlass1 replied to catrox14's topic in Supernatural
Dean Winchester will forever live in my heart. But the thrill is gone for me. It disappeared a while ago. So at least the weaning process has been easy. Thanks Dabb for being the worst showrunner of all time. I won’t be snot sobbing into my wine during the final episode... I’ll be happy that talented Jensen is finally released. -
S05.E09: Burnt Bridges And Bitter Truths

Have you seen what his doting mother feeds him? She doesn’t want him waddling away. -
S05.E09: Burnt Bridges And Bitter Truths
Pondlass1 replied to 1011101010001's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After
Mouth or cheek that was uncomfortable to watch. I had to smile, tho, at Ansuelu’s childish glee at being able to buy the best of the best because TLC was paying. I don’t know if Larissa’s dark circles are real or TLC makeup for sympathy, but she looks dreadful. The macho macho man fight at the Moldovan restaurant seemed a bit of a set up. When the family Chantal fight broke out we saw film crew and producers quickly stepping in because it was real and someone could’ve been hurt. TLC doesn’t want law suits. But last night was all drunken bluster and kind of silly. Syngin flew all that way because of his sick brother and then spent five minutes with him. Maybe big boobs and seatbelt straps don’t mesh, but the strap tucked under the arm isn’t going to protect anyone. Are Mykhul’s relatives going along with the joke for the money (are they even being paid?) because auntie must know Angela’s uterus ain’t toting anything anytime soon. I still don’t get Mykhul’s motives. He does seem to genuinely care for Angela... heaven knows why. I can see why TLC forked out for Deb’s air ticket to Brazil. She’s playing temper tantrum Jess like a fiddle. I wish there was at least one couple I could root for. It’s all soap opera drama. -
S10.E13: There's No Place Like Rome
Pondlass1 replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
There’s lots of editing and producer manipulation here. They should never film while the cast members are eating (well, pretending to eat) . Watch out for wandering empty/full glasses and dinner plates moving magically about on tables during any fraught exchange. Why doesn’t Denise just say ... it’s none of your f*king business? Cuz it ain’t. Bravo, Bravo, Bravo ... please drop Teddi. She really is boring (and dour) Kyle’s new shiny crown is slipping methinks. Why can’t we see more of Roma? 😢 -
S02.E10: Forgiven, Not Forgotten
Pondlass1 replied to OnceSane's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way
I don’t follow spoilers, but I’d imagine the majority of the female cast members are back in the US now... except maybe Jenny who’s apparently not going anywhere. -
I was just driving along and ‘He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother’ came on the radio. I turned up the volume and wondered why this song has never been used on the series (to my knowledge). Maybe too expensive? There are a few occasions it could’ve been..... like, gangbusters!! You can have your favourite brother, you can criticize Jared’s acting, but these two guys possessed that mystical magical thing called chemistry. In bucketloads. I’ve always totally bought them as brothers. You can buy a lot of things, but you can’t buy chemistry. How Supernatural wasn’t ever nominated for an Emmy is beyond me. Especially in those first years. I’m going to miss you Winchesters 😭 it’s just kinda dawning on me... the end is nigh
