  1. Seeing how horrid Zanab treated Cole during the series and in the reunion, I can just imagine how the contrived Alexa birthday party will go in the next episode when they see each other.   And uggh why is Nancy even still hanging with Bartise.   Oh right....to film this contrived farce...LOL.     On to the next episode.

    I really had an intense dislike for Robyn in this mini series. Yet, I realized, she's the same flakey person she was in Best Man. 

    She's flirting with Jaha and gets mad at Harp for not jumping to buy a whole building in NYC.

    LOL

    I admit I wasn't paying full attention - but where was Harper during the NYE party? On location with his movie?

    I think it was left open for more installments, if necessary. 

    I'm wondering if they have a Season 2 if they'll say she had a brief fling with Jaha.   Robyn just came across flaky-AF throughout the whole series seemingly changing her mind moment to moment.    I believe in the premiere she whispered in Harper's ear about wanting to stay at whereever island they were at and then the subject magically disappeared until she bought up Ghana.  And why Ghana?   Did she even consider what uprooting her child who would miss seeing her Dad regularly would do?   She's selfish-AF.

     I don't remember if they said what happened to Harper but it's safe to say he probably was at his movie location.

  3. I watched this show years back via Netflix DVDs and stopped around Season 5.   I just found out Hulu has the entire series online so started watching from Season 6.   It amazed me all the creative ways Harvey, Mike, and the rest of the gang found to get themselves out of various situations.   A lot of it of course was contrived but still enjoyable.

  4. I may have missed a throwaway line but did they say what happened to Quinton's dad.   The last time I remember them talking about him was when they were cleaning his house.   Quinton's heart attacks seem to come from out of the blue too.

    And I thought Candance would have more of a reaction to Murch's MMA fighting.   I was surprised too they didn't have Murch MMA fight the professor.  I thought that was where they were going.

    As for Robyn and Harper, I was frankly surprised it lasted as long as it did.  Her "whateva, man" in Best Man certainly didn't sound like anyone that even wanted to be in a marriage.   Plus at the time it seemed like Harper only proposed so he would have "a moment" at Lance and Mia's wedding.   And way for her to make a unilateral decision to move their daughter half way around the world and everyone expects Harper to be okay with that.   Yeah sure.

    It definitely wasn't the best ending.   I did like the blooper reel though.

  5. Oooh I really felt Murch's pain with the whole "Karen" exchange and right in front of his daugthers.   It really is a lose, lose situation no matter how you handle it as they showed with the fantasy exchanges when he runs into the same Karen a second time.   But is being an MMA Fighter really the answer?   Isn't that what video games are for?   LOL

  6. LOL I too thought the Peacock was some kind of shout-out to the streaming service.    Guess they had to throw the obligatory "Bernadette from Waiting to Exhale burning up something" montage with Xiomara.   I did enjoy her character though while she lasted.

    Cool that Shelby and Q ended up being the ones married.  I could buy that feelings would start to creep up after their multiple dalliances in the sheets.

    Interesting too that Robyn wants to stay in the islands.  I guess since Harper is gonna come into a boatload of money soon, it's not out of the questions for them to get a small place as another residence.

  7. It's nice to see the gang all back in full effect.   I had rewatched both movies a week or so back to refresh my memory and it was cool they gave the quick refresher for those who didn't see the movies.    Harper's book Unfinished Business definitely is getting lots of mileage in the entire series.   Did my eyes deceive me but did they flash forward and said he was in 2024 when Harper was doing his presentation...which as he was making that long walk to the stage I kept waiting for something comedic to happen.

    And of course they would have Morris Chestnut's intro scene of him being half naked.   Not that I was complaining....*LOL*.   Guess his whole plot line will be fucking the pain away with many willing women.

    It wasn't the most exciting premiere but they're setting up the storylines so that's understandable.   And hello Nicole Ari Parker...mini Empire reunion with her and Terrence.

    What a putdown and coming from his own mother! It isn’t wrong to always want more.

     

     

    Part of the attitude was due to a cultural difference.   It's part of the caste system belief that the social standing you're born in is the social standing you must remain in.   They definitely would love TLC's hit song of Don't Go Chasing Waterfalls.   *LOL*.

    Loving the series overall but I do agree in the sentiment that the time jump is a bit jarring.   I guess with only 6 episodes they had to speed the story along.

    I felt kind of bad for Alice- all she had was her dolls, her cat, and Olivia.

    So is the cat stuck in time basically...and I guess dead?

  10. The premise is pretty interesting.  I never read the book so coming into this blind just happening to see it pop up on my Hulu feed.  Took me a minute to recognize Jason Stackhouse, I mean Ryan Kwanten.   But his voice eventually gave him away.   

    I would be freaked out being the new guy in Dana's life.   I would've been out the door after the first episode he saw.   I'm enjoying it so far.

  11. Dang Buck...you were sorta-kinda-still a little bit innocent but you done stabbed that lady who couldn't shut up about her suspicions.   Guess you're going down with the ship at the end of the season.    So it's Buck and Reba vs. the "Odd Couple".    Should be fun.

  12. I'm late to the party but definitely enjoyed the show.   I'm so bummed it didn't make a third season.   The kids were so cute in the series even the big bad Braden.   Omg...and way for Nicole to make me cry along with Braden when she shown empathy for him losing both his parents and how his Mom would've wanted him to grow up to be something great. 

  13. The secrets that these ladies keep from each other is crazy.   You'd think by now they'd just tell each other about what's happening and accept whatever fallout happens.    But then we wouldn't have a show.  I'm loving this crazy ride so far.

    It was cool to see the grief counsel crew again.  I was especially happy to see Telma Hopkins and I loved they threw in a karaoke situation to give her another opportunity to sing.   I so miss her on Half & Half and especially enjoy the episodes where she got to show her singing chops.

    Was it Ken that said they were SWV?  Really?  I liked that Robin said he didn't hear S or W or V.

    It was actually Jenny who asked guessed them and asked if they still were a thing... yes Miss Jenny they are.   They keep throwing their names out there even though yes there was no S or W or V heard.   I'm hoping they do make an appearance sometime in the future.

    I was really rooting for Alexa and Brennon, I was hoping they would be the Nick and Danielle of this season. Alexa though already seems like she's not in to the relationship at all. Her evasive responses to his compliments are very annoying ("Im so in love with you," "Are you", "You are so gorgeous", "Am I"), if I was Brennon I would be seeing major red flags. I am wondering if she is not as attracted to him as she seemed to be when they first met.

    Alexa and Brennon make me a little nervous. I think Brennon actually seems genuinely in love with her. She's definitely more put off but I'm wondering if it's an insecurity thing?

    I actually think Colleen and her fiancé, is it Matt. have the best chance of making it. I do think part of her just wants to be with someone but he seems genuinely smitten with her and they're sweet. I feel the least hesitation between them. 

    I'm just finally starting to watch Season 3.   Overall the show doesn't have the magic of Season 1 so far.   Again the show's not going to get another Lauren and Cameron.   With that said...

    I did like Alexa and Brennon the best out of all the couples.   But yeah I see Alexa's actions of not really responding to Brennon's declaration of love as suspicious.   Then again all of them have literally just met so that could be part of it.   Reality is starting to creep in.   Plus there may be some insecurity on Alexa's part that's playing into how she's acting.

    I'm also growing on Colleen and Matt as well.   Will see how that progresses.

    Andrew eye drops is not one of the best reality show moments in history. Like that guy was sketchy from the moment he opened his mouth. And then he was super racist and full of shit about Africa right in front of SK too. No water to shower for five days? Masai blankets in South Africa? He is too much and now everyone in the world knows what a snake he is.

    Omg...somehow I missed the eye drop gate.  I'm definitely going to rewatch that.   That's hilarious.   But like Cole he definitely came across as the biggest tool.   Raven is up there too in tool-ville.

  16. Sigh.  I was really hoping Joi would pull the win.    I didn't realize that they had to get the primary question of "Who Is The Mole" correct and if they're the only one, that they automatically win.   I don't remember that being the case in the other versions.   But then again maybe that never came into play as the remaining two had no doubt who the Mole was.

    That was a cool final mission with avoiding the drones for cash.   It gave Joi and Will final opportunities to try to fool each other.   I did enjoy seeing some of the behind the scenes with Kasi but....

    I co-sign that it would've been nice to get more behind the scenes commentary from the other players.   At least go down the line from the first eliminated player to the last one and have them say who they think the Mole is and who they think won.   This should've been a 70 minute episode instead of 35.

    If they do more seasons of this, this would be on my Wishlist of changes they should implement.

    1) Bring back the introductory player bios w/ green or red stamps depending on who is still in the game and who's eliminated.

    2) Have at least two missions per episode.   They did it right on all the locations used but there needed to be an extra mission and preferably when the group was larger separate missions where not all the players get to participate in the same mission.

    3) I agree on having a more diverse cast in terms of age and physicality in particular.   Everyone does not need to look Instagram or Tik-Tok ready.

    4) Bring back "player at home" clues per episode.   They were sometimes lame but they would've given aficionados the opportunity to deep dive into each episode of find clues.

    5) Alex actually was a good host so wouldn't mind her returning.

    I'm honestly not sure if it's Kesi or Joi, and I love that. Even though I wrote Joi off because of the $25k, I rewatched some of the early episodes in preparation for this, and she does act super suspicious. I ultimately still think Kesi is the mole, but we'll see!

    I thought Avori would make it to the finals, and I was rooting for her, so I'm sad to see her go. If Will and Joi are really the last two contestants, then the two people with the biggest chips on their shoulders made it to the end, which is kind of a bummer. I like Kesi a lot, though, so I'm still happy if she's the mole.

    That's the beauty of this show.   Any one of the 3 very well could be the Mole.   I'm like 98% on the Kasi Mole train and have 1% each for the remaining 2...*LOL*.    I definitely would've preferred Avori over Will in the final 3.   I'll watch the final episode sometime this weekend.

  18. Omg...I can't believe I doubted for a minute Joi would make final 3.    I was wrong about the handsome midwestern fireman Jacob but my top suspect still lives.   Kami-Kasi indeed.    I was sorry to see Avori go.    She definitely played a great game.

    That mission was tough.   The sabotage was real with Kasi that game.   Playing it off like she wants to throw suspicion her way.  And then that last minute switching of cases with Avori to try and "throw more suspicion" and take some money (however little it was) from the pot, knowing damn well she's the Mole...so I think...*LOL*. 

    Ok I'm rooting for Joi to win at this point.

    It's got to be Kesi!  She spelled neon as neone in one of the first challenges, the she didn't notice L Dorado as a clue for Gold in a later challenge. Then she knocked down a bag of money from the train. This episode she didn't see the flock of seagulls and she voted for the non-liar.

    Not to mention she wanted to pick the wrong pigeon to go back to Avoni and was totally stalling on the rooftop.

  20. Ok so I caved and watched this last episode as well.   I feel like this may be Joi's swan song episode.    They made it a point in last episode to show that she was stirring things up and that may have got Greg eliminated.    So she stirs things up again but this time she winds up playing herself.   I still think it's between Kasi and Jacob as the Mole.    Five more days till the reveal...or will they make it a cliff hanger ending after ten and save the reveal for the reunion episode.

    To turn suspicion on someone she doesn’t think is the mole and deflect away from her pick. 

    Meanwhile Avori is secretly pissy telling Joi not to give her top pick away.

    Kesi and Jacob are still looking mighty suspicious.    But I'd love for it to be Will.   It would be extremely shocking if it wound up being him.
