Having read the book, I knew the fate awaiting the fabulous Rhaenys. I was hoping the showrunners might change the story somewhat to keep Eve Best on longer, but no such luck. For a minute I thought she was going to leave and flee back to Dragonstone, until she foolishly decided to take on Vhaegar.......we will miss you Rhaenys!

S14.E07: Gifts & Receipts
Joan van Snark replied to snarts's topic in The Real Housewives Of New Jersey
Wow Melissa's decor is the epitome of tacky. It looks like an antiseptic mall store showroom. All of those shelves with those cheap gold pieces that look like TJ Maxx specials. There is absolutely nothing in that place that looks home like or that people actually live there. -
My absolute favorite character is Cousin Rhaenys Targaryen. This is primarily due to Eve Best's wonderful, regal portrayal. She is one of the few that seems to think things through before acting on impulse and she is not one to be ordered around or trifled with. I knew she looked familiar when I first saw her in Season 1 but it took me awhile to realize....OMG that's Nurse Jackie's English doctor friend!

Will the shenanigans ever end with them? Many researchers claim a marriage document could never be found for them so were they even actually married in the first place? Have they actually filed something with the courts? DERRICO is WEIRD! Have you ever heard of a wife call their husband by his last name?

S14.E04: A League of Their Own Worst Enemy
Joan van Snark replied to snarts's topic in The Real Housewives Of New Jersey
Please no more Gia! I hope they aren't grooming her to be a future housewife. I find her very smug and I can't stand the dull drone of her voice. Did the producers tell Jackie to spice things up or she won't even get 'friend' status anymore? Why is she suddenly up Tre's ass? -
S08.E01: Once Upon a Rocky Relationship
Joan van Snark replied to TwirlyGirly's topic in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After
Who selected these boring couples? It seems like Gino and Jasmine have been in the last 4 seasons aired! Rob and the English girl are boring. Mackmood and the crazy girl are boring. Kobe and the girl from Kansas are boring, although I am interested in meeting Kobe’s family and their reaction to the wife. At least Angela and Ed will bring some excitement whenever they show up. -
S13.E18: Reunion Part 1
Joan van Snark replied to QQQQ's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
As a white person of a social age (47) I can understand using words that may have a racist connotation, but 'attack' and 'yelling' are not words that have anything to do with race. I can understand the need to get rid of some old phrases that could be construed as racist, but this 'woke' trend making it to where any conceivable word uttered that has NOTHING to do with race can be used to brand you as insensitive and racist is getting to be ridiculous. It is quite obvious to anyone who watched those scenes there was nothing about race going on in those conversations. I feel all this business will only serve to push people apart. None of this is to defend Dorit. Ive always found her fake and ridiculously pretentious, and yes, she probably does like to live in her own world to a certain extent, but I think Garcelle is being ridiculous to get offended by something that was clearly not intended as racist. Just admit you don't like her and move on. I don't like her either!- 254 replies

S13.E18: Reunion Part 1
Joan van Snark replied to QQQQ's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
I usually like Garcelle, but she is really being ridiculous on this issue with Dorit. You are not allowed to say a black person is 'attacking' you? She knows damn well Dorit was not using that word to portray her and minimize her as an 'angry black woman' stereotype. She meant to say that Garcelle was attacking her with verbal digs or jabs. To try to paint Dorit as racist because of that is patently ridiculous. And then for Anne Marie to try to say Sutton was doing the same thing by saying AM was 'yelling' at her was INSANE!- 254 replies

I believe that she said a girl with dwarfism would have a much harder time than a boy with dwarfism, since girls are so judged by their 'looks'.

Wow no replies the morning after? I think there is way too many different threads for this 6 episode show. Also I am really not grasping what the big overall mystery is, besides why the guys were frozen.

Holiday Baking Championship - General Discussion
Joan van Snark replied to a topic in Holiday Baking Championship
PLEASE NO JASON SMITH!!! I don't despise Nancy as much as many others do and she DOES annoy with her insistence on red and green. People started using other colors besides those decades ago. My own tree has not a drop of red, and is mostly gold, turquoise, violet and magenta--yet I still get lots of compliments and it looks very 'holiday'. I think to even insinuate Nancy is racist because she didn't praise Sherrod enough is ridiculous and dangerous in this time of 'cancel culture'. But for the love of all that is holy, no Jason Smith please! I don't need cornpone one-liners throughout the show. -
S05.E01: Bringing Home the Bacon
Joan van Snark replied to PrincessPurrsALot's topic in 1,000-LB Sisters
I’m normally a big Amanda fan but she needed to lay off Amy a little. Sometimes you just aren’t in the mood for ribbing and I can imagine the eye thing is a sore subject and something she has no control over. Amanda should have just said I’m sorry you know it was a joke but she kept pressing on Amy. -
S05.E01: Bringing Home the Bacon
Joan van Snark replied to PrincessPurrsALot's topic in 1,000-LB Sisters
Dang no replies yet? I must say that Tammy really seems different. She seems much happier and more carefree. She also seems to have gained a good bit of confidence and self love from her success. Her goodbye and thank-yous to the clinic staff and patients seemed very heart felt and genuine. I’m happy for her. Her nastiness and meanness in earlier seasons was undoubtedly due to being depressed and in constant physical pain and discomfort. Kinda disappointed Darlene wasn’t also there to greet her. At least the siblings are a good support system for each other since it doesn’t seem like their mother is. -
S11.E03: My Big Fat Alabama Fama
Joan van Snark replied to PrincessPurrsALot's topic in My Big Fat Fabulous Life
What does Hunter do exactly? Isn't he in his 40's now since I think he is older than Whitney? How does he support himself. If I recall correctly, he was some kind of actor in New York in his younger days. Obviously that didnt work out. Now there is the constant talk of moving to Atlanta. I guess Twit doesn't have a 'real' job either besides the show. Does Dadwee support him financially?
