My take on the Kyle/Morgan relationship hinges on the fact (is my opinion a "fact"...yes, yes it is) that Kyle is so emotionally stunted. Kyle has always presented herself with all of the maturity and emotional depth of a middle school girls locker room; she's blatantly attention seeking, but then awkward as hell once she's the center of attention, making messes everywhere she goes, and then regrets/can't explain her actions so the vocal fry and tears hit full effect as she's "done" for the zillionth time - lather, rinse, repeat. I remember being a middle school girl and becoming infatuated with different people...dressing like them, talking like them, liking the things they liked, liking the people they liked...wanting to be just like them. But then I grew up and realized I'm the bees fuckin' knees and I want to be ME. Kyle hasn't ever grown up and this whole Morgan situation was an infatuation that at 50-whatver years old Kyle STILL doesn't understand.

All right, simmer down now BQ; nowhere did I say he looked "good". 😉

I actually thought he looked better than we've seen him in a while, maybe ever. That's what giving up drinking/Dorit can do a for a person!

Banoffee Pie is the ONLY pie I like so I was thrilled with this week's Technical. I had it (several times) during a visit to the UK in the early 2000's and haven't had it since. It seems kinda/sorta/maybe easy-ish to make. I might just try it this holiday season!

I said the *exact* same thing. Why ask for a "sandwich cookie" and then take it apart and eat only part of it? I could see taking a bite of the whole cookie and then testing each element separately, but that's not what they did.

I'm obsessed with how "Slim Shady" (if you're watching, you know who I mean) cannot stay in a room for more than two minutes without running away. How did she ever think she could do this "ick-speriment"???? 😆

You and me both! I ended up fast forwarding to see if there was anything else and then moved on to the next episode. Wow, what waste of time.

Also heard frequently on these shows (and all over now)..."her and I". As in, "Her and I went to the Quiet Woman for dinner." Drives. Me. Insane. Absolute nails on chalkboard territory. And to ensure this is episode related...I don't think I laughed once. I miss when these shows had at least some levity to offset the drama. Now it's just allll fake drama and I miss the fun.

Ugh, I still miss the old crew. 😉 (see what I did there..."old"?)

I think Heather really messed this up. She could have said, at the outset, "There were ugly, untrue rumors in the press that Terry was having an affair. It was hurtful to me and to my entire family, including our children. My publicist/assistant/whomever called some papps to get photos of us at Disneyland to try and change the narrative. Hey, I'd do anything to shield our kids from hurtful lies about their father, like any good parent would." End. Of. Discussion. But she clings to being perfect and can't just admit that she was trying to change the narrative from the infidelity rumors. Ding dong. She could have stolen the "gotcha" with a morsel of truth. I don't know if it's illegal for John to film Shannon in CA, but I do know it's illegal for Gina to continue to make us look at her in that horrible talking head "look". I'm going to retain council and establish a class action lawsuit. Reach out if you, too, have been victimized by Gina's horrible fashion.

I know there's a lot to talk about with Shannon's drinking, Katie's messy entry, Emily's fakety-fake "new" ring, Tamra's record as the World's Biggest Asshole 10+ years running, and Gina's talking head "looks" that BEG for ridicule....BUT....in spite of all of that, I ask you: What *the fuck* has happened to Terry DeBrow's FACE?!?!?! I'm serious! The man is in need of his own consultation on Botched. His face is RUINED! 😲

Thanks goodness garbage cans come on wheels or even THAT would be out of my tax bracket. 😉

We watch via VPN, so we'll look for it tonight. Now it'll truly feel like summer! 😎

I lost my cool when she was upset about one of the kitchens and asked if she could get food delivered because she doesn't really cook. She was taking the piss, right? That whole episode was one big wind-up.

I loved loved loved this series and can't wait to hear what you all think when you get a chance to see it. I knew very little about the case in the beginning, but was still so touched by this retelling that I found myself actually weeping at the end. I hope you enjoy it. ❤️
