  1. I am just too jaded for this show. When they did the package about her mother dying all I could think was it was 17 years ago. While it sounds horrible, at some point you do need to move on. Enough with the sob stories.
  2. The infiniti Q50 add makes me extra stabby. He just could not comprehend that the package van in front of him might stop? Really? Does he know lights change? People pull out of driveways? People other than him exist on the road? The car doesn't leave you free to drive. It leaves you free to be a self-centered ass. It reminds me of the old joke about the guy who got cruise control, so he climbed into the backseat to make a sandwich.
  3. Note to Gwen: Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up,shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up,shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up,shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up,shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up. What is zero? The number of fucks I give about who you think is "so cute". Shut up.
  4. Are you sure Teresa didn't write this? She is a master of the English language. Perhaps she texesed it to the publisher. The best way for Teresa to stay out of prison - take an IQ test. They could argue she's not mentally competent. Of course, she'll need someone to handle all of her affairs from now on, but wouldn't that be for the best? That is, as long as that someone is Joe.
  5. Hey now, Adam Levine suffered - SUFFERED - SUFFFFF-FERRRRRRED with acne. His confidence was destroyed by his hideous visage. He had to hide in shame for fear people would see what a freak of nature he was. It is amazing that even to this day he is willing to leave the house, let alone be the insufferable over-confident douchebag he is. Acne destroyed his entire sense of self. If only proactive was around during his formative years, his ego could overtake the entire world, crushing us all under its weight. I especially enjoy the ones who are botoxed until they can barely move any facial features. It really gives me a sense of how the product would work for me and my paralytic-free face. Makes me miss the days of soft focus and vaseline on the screen. Now if only I could find a mascara that make it look like someone glued dead hamsters to my eyes.
  6. The way I look at it these are all horrible people. Tammy Knickerbocker from the first season of RHOC had the good sense to leave the show when she realized it was hurting her children. They were dealing with a family tragedy - she chose not to make it worse. The rest of these people, women and men, have chosen fame over family. No matter how many times they want to tell us that family is the most important thing to them, by their repeated actions, it is not. Subjecting your children to this level of scrutiny is unhealthy. Whether these people are playing characters or amping up the drama for the cameras, as many now claim, they are showing their asses on a national stage. Their children pay a price for this. When you add to this the real life issues many of these families have - bankruptcies, illegal actions, fraud, extreme intrafamily conflicts, possible alcoholism, drunk driving - the choice to appear on a reality show proves what idiots they are. These things come out, now on a public stage, further humiliating their children. Additionally the children growing up on these shows aren't exactly lighting the world on fire with their ambitions. The draw of the reality TV teat is strong. They all could use two-story closets to hide their skeletons in along with years of therapy for themselves and their children. Maybe that's what they should ask for in their Bravo contracts; rather than more money, they should ask for lifetime mental health coverage for all involved persons. They could all use a little help, some a truckload of help. Yes, I watch, I snark, and I watch some more just for the snark. I try to remember it is "reality", not reality, semi-scripted fools acting the clown for our enjoyment. Drinking game for the next episode - drink every time someone says "I'm done". That should have us all on the floor about 20 minutes in. For being "done" they always come back for more.
  7. I just saw approximately 5 minutes of this. In the words of every housewife that ever was "I'm done." Thanks for the gay stereotyping Manzo kids. Of course, all gay men are into wedding dresses. And seeing a short clip that the boys bring a blow up doll into the house knowing that Caro will treat it like they are just little scamps, no thanks.
  8. When he said that I really wished for a roadblock that would have them put on coconut bras and dance or something equally silly/potentially humiliating. If you're so certain your partner is useless, bring another partner. If they can see some of what the roadblock requires it might be different if they can guess it's a swimming task, for example, they may chose the strongest swimmer, regardless of gender. All of the talk about heroes makes me think of The Simpsons episode in which Bart pretends/is trapped in a well. Lisa asks how that makes "Little Timmy" a hero. Homers answer, "Because he is!!!!!"
  9. I would have no problem with Jac being shown doing something other than being with Nick. The music therapy threw me because I am not on the spectrum, yet, when the therapist suddenly sang loudly right in Nick's face, if I were him, I would have jumped out of my skin. It certainly made sense to me that Nick would spend that time with his therapist and Jac and Chris would not need to be in the middle of it. I reacted similarly when Jac kept putting her hand and much of her arm over Nick's. Of course, that's my reaction for myself. I can accept this is okay within his therapy. Then again, I would be happiest if we did not see Jac's Easter Island face at all, whether she's with her son, hanging with Ashley/lee/leigh, or blowing Chris (assuming her mouth can still open enough for that). I remember her big crocodile tears as she left Nick to go get more plastic surgery. She's lucky he can recognize her with all of her changes. I understand the scenes with Jac and Kathy were filmed late and spliced into the season. It just leaves a mess. Not a mess on the level of the rare spottings of Danielle on RHOC, but a disjointed mess nonetheless. The lack of interaction with the "housewives" leaves production with limited choices of what to show. Unfortunately those choices are annoying.
  10. I am so glad someone else noticed that. I was a hand model (cue jokes from Seinfeld episode). The nails in that ad are embarrassing. Use our product when you have someone with uncontrolled spasmodic muscle movements paint your nails. They'll be as pretty as the ones we're showing you. In the zombie apocalypse I plan to hole up in one of those houses. I'll use the chair as part of my sweet blockade for the second story. What? Others aren't doing this kind of planning?
  11. Courtyard leads to full blown schizophrenia perhaps? Or causes hallucinations? Temporal shifts? Puts strong hallucinogens in their cocktails? Is a secret vortex to hell?
  12. Jinjer, if Jacqueline has a thread, "bottomless pit of neediness" should be the subtitle. I particularly enjoyed Teresa saying "I brought my tiramisu" when it was in what looked to be a supermarket bakery type container. She slaved all day to make that.
  13. What I wouldn't give to hear Teresa tell the kids she and Juicy are going to Hebrew camp.
  14. I enjoyed Patricia Arquette in this role and started to question my negative feeling about her acting. Then Is aw that death scene. It was like something out of an old soap opera or a silent movie. The scenery was filled with teeth marks.
  15. One more petty point - I do not for one second believe that Rosie had any kind of real romantic relationship with the woman they showed earlier in the season who she now supposedly broke up with. That all seemed to be for the show. It's not that I don't wish Rosie the best in finding someone. Although while we are seeing nice Rosie now, I have not forgotten the nutbag screeching at the reunion about how she was going to kill Theresa for speaking about her father. That's a level of crazy I wouldn't want anyone I know to get too close to. And I certainly wouldn't want to be around her if she was drunk and something bad/uncomfortable/controversial came up. She's a funny drunk with Joe Gi, but when she's angry she is out of control. Hopefully after seeing herself on TV she's working on that. Also she had the same tell Joe Gi had in the prior episode when shoveling the bullshit for the cameras. She was looking up to the corner of the room. She was trying so hard not to meet Kathy's eyes I'm surprised we could still see pupils. I would like to play poker with these people. None of them can bluff.
  16. It looked to me like Chris was closely monitoring Nick because he was concerned about him being pushed into a difficult state. My grandnephew is autistic. he is fortunate to have wonderful parents who have kept him in a very supportive school district. They do not have many financial resources to help him on their own however. I feel for Chris and Jac becuase they have a long road ahead of them. But I do feel that Jac likes to see at least a bit of breakdown so she can go into full fledged victim mode. Also, I hate their revisionist history that all of their financial issues are due to paying for extra treatments for Nick. I can accept that it's a corporate bankruptcy and that businesses fail, just don;t tell me you did it all for the children. Juicy and Tre could pull the same crap if they wanted to - we wanted the kids to have a better life than we had. It's BS regardless of the couple in this case. I had a friend who would suddenly decide something a friend of hers did was absolutely the worst thing ever and she would completely cut them off. My sin - I asked her if she would like to attend an event. She wasn't very interested but said she would go. I went with other people. That was it - now she absolutely hates me. Fortunately we rarely run into each other so I don;t have to worry about this. I think Jim is the same way. Once he goes after someone he has to see his issue as a major moral failing on the other person's side and then he will not let it go. There is no thought of a reasonable reaction to the perceived slight. it is all or nothing. I do think Bobby and Nicole are a couple for the show and not much of anything in real life. Who cares? As long as they're honest with each other it doesn't matter. She may have felt she wouldn't be cast without a significant other. Bobby is enough of a famewhore to jump on.
  17. Let's add to this that she has a nephew with severe developmental disabilities whose parents are in bankruptcy and therefore may not be able to continue to pay for some of his treatments, but she crying over relative strangers. Maybe should could focus on that. Also, she wouldn't be alligator chow; her various critters would. (Although the video of the cat scaring off the alligator makes me think he hairless kitties could hold their own.)
  18. The Mer/Der drama is silly. It's just like the whole not having a nanny thing. They are both surgeons earning good incomes. Derek could take the Washington job and work out a deal where he was often remote. He could also simply travel back and forth and Mer could occasionally go to DC. Heck, bring the kids for a family vacation. It can be a bit difficult to work out but people do it all the time. Dr. Muffyn and I have never lived in the same town. With their incomes and professions, they should be able to make reasonable arrangements. It's not like James heading to Alaska and leaving Florida and the kids on Good Times.
  19. They were supposed to be so overcome by the realtors beauty that they would give them their cab or at least share. I will not miss those women. Because we were supposed to find it sexy? Unfortunately for her we found it stupid. Dentist guy looked extra creepy in his intro. He is even more baked looking and his eye brows seem to be almost on level with this eyes. Extra creepy. Line of the night goes to Amy. Realtor: “the sun sets in the east”. Amy: “oooooookay”.
  20. When he gets preachy, I call him Herr Doktor. Next time, Herr Doktor McMuffyn it is. That'll shut him down. <evil cackle>
  21. My theory is that Seattle Grace is such a terrible hospital they have a really hard time finding anyone new who is willing to work there. After all, they have bombings, shootings, stabbings, gurneys falling off roofs, doctors having sex with ghosts, all kinds of inappropriate behavior, a staff that often mirrors the typical kindergarten in behavior, . . . . The death toll at this place mounts every episode. Any smart doctors would not want to be chief of anything at this place.
  22. Wearing a onesie to a rock concert almost guarantees you'll be standing in a pool of your own urine by the end of the night. Wait in a 100+ person line for the restrooms then try to get out of that outfit in time. Fail. I don't think Char left enough room in the shorts for Depend and SAM might not be sufficient. The answer to the question, "Did producers think this through?" Regardless of the statement before that question, this season the answer always seems to be "no, they did not." Try it. Muse and makeover - no. Actresses with no fashion sense/cred as judges - no. All one-day challenges in the early part of the season leading to burn out - no. Tim still holding the good will of the viewers - no. Amanda as someone we really wanted to see more of - no. Other than more shots of Swatch, it's a lot of no.
  23. Adding to things i learned from watching GA: when you need to tell someone their husband died, have two doctors just stare at the wife for a long time without saying anything until she starts to freak out. Professional! In one of the early seasons didn't we tackle this issue with the interns needing to learn to deliver this news - be direct, professional, compassionate but not maudlin, listen, find them support (or bring hospital support with you - social worker or chaplain, as appropriate). I don't think stare intently at their face and play a game of twenty questions in which you provide no answers was the recommended method. Also, in the GA universe, yet again, phone do not exist. If a patient is trying to die because he believes his wife and daughter are dead, and you find out they are alive, don't let him know. Make him wait until they walk into the room. Wouldn't want him to stop refusing treatment or eliminate the risk of him potentially hurting himself by pulling an IV or even the possibility that he would find a way to kill himself. It's all worth it for the tear-filled reunion scene.
  24. Amanda took a woman with the slender figure and made her look like a mac truck barreling down the runway. It was like she was trying to create the before rather than the after. That dress was ill-fitting and ill-conceived. The skirt was cut at the worst place for the model’s legs. The vest was nothing special. Nothing like upholstery material to make a person feel like a couch, er, special, yeah, that’s it, special. Since Amanda’s dress made her model’s waist look thick and had the crotch arrow, maybe it was an homage to pregnancy. The dress would accentuate a baby bump and the arrow pointed to where the baby making started. The top of Sean’s dress was ugly, unflattering and extremely dated. He was lucky there was so much dreck on the runway to choose from. This is the least talented group of designers ever on PR. I would have liked to see everyone get the extra ten minutes. Not that ten minutes was going to save that shit show Alexander put out. The back of the top was taped together. So he completed a circle skirt that was the same pattern as the one he showed Tim but didn’t have the extra fugly overlay of yellow fabric on the second day. The he pieced together an ill-fitting top that he didn’t finish sewing. Goodbye Alexander. You seemed pretty much like a non-entity on this show. Finish school and think about what you could do better. I talked to a friend who sidelines as a fit model. A lot of her work is for when they are working out the details for the initial patterning. She said they often use zippers without stops on the pieces she tries on. However, the designers either sew in a stop or they simply place a safety pin an inch or so from the bottom so you can’t pull the pull off of the teeth. Since a non-model is used to a zipper stop, Char’s person probably pulled the pull right off the bottom. A professional model would have been more careful. Not an issue worth all of the drama. I am tired of verklempt Tim. He often seems half a tick away from succumbing to the vapors. Does he have hormonal issues? Is this a signal that he should be checked for a heart condition? Tone in down, Tim, it’s only fashion (TM Santino).
  25. Amanda used upholstery fabric to make a dress. Do the designers this season not know fabrics? Mood is supposed to have an incredible selection of fabrics, so she chose upholstery material. Just a bad choice right from the start. Of course the dress didn’t fall right. I kind of wish Tim hadn’t suggested Alexander scrap his first dress. I would have liked to see the judges’ reaction to the hideous color/pattern combination and the shapes he chose for the attack of the yellow and black splotches. Weirdly, when he was clearing off his table, Alexander’s mouth was finally closed. Sad Alexander doesn’t need to mouth breath. The camera was certainly willing to get up close and personal with the model's hips. Especially given that it was a real person challenge, they should have stopped zooming in.
