I'm so bummed that there's no more Nico.

That's just for the remainder of this season. But after season 19…? I can't help but laugh, though. I know Shonda handed over the Grey's Anatomy reigns 5+ years ago. But she always said that the show would end when Ellen is done. Well, Ellen is done. lol

I, personally, don't plan on watching. I love the original series so much and this revival is too depressing. However, I'm hoping at least a couple of brave souls around here who do watch will come back and report so that I can partake in the bitching-sans-watching. lol

I saw, thanks! If Charli wins, what very little integrity this show has will go out the window.

The judges wetting themselves over Charli is gross, especially when they completely disregard her professional dance training and act like she's just naturally good. It's just not fair, period. Every other contestant is at a disadvantage, whether they're an entertainer and quick to pick up choreography or not. The technique is what is hard to nail, and Charli never has an issue with it because she's…say it with me now…TRAINED. Mark is essentially dancing with a pro. So who are we all voting for next week to knock the ringer out? lol With Len retiring from the show after this season, I wonder if that means Derek will be the permanent third judge.

Richard should be Chief, IMO. The revolving door of leadership has gotten overly ridiculous, and I know the show has been on for nearly two decades, but I say let the man who started it all be in charge. With better planning, Miranda Bailey - who was being primed under Richard's wing since the very beginning - should've been given the promotion to Chief toward the end of the series as Richard retires...but since there hasn't been an end in sight, I guess that would be too hard to plan. Regardless, no thank you to Teddy as Chief. They really laid it on thick this episode with praising her leadership. And I laughed out loud when Owen said he wanted it. No, sir! A plane crashed under your leadership because you were trying to cut cost for the hospital budget, your services are not needed. Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but I hope we're done with the Grey House and that the fire rendered it uninhabitable. Freeloaders Amelia, Maggie and Winston can find their own places to live. If the show is going to go to the lengths to set fire to the house as Meredith makes her move to Boston, then let this be a real fresh start and cut ties with that space completely. And maybe that is tptb's intention. Or maybe the show is going to pick up in three months and the Grey House got a facelift. I say let it go. It belonged to a Grey's Anatomy that no longer exists.

I'm glad the Post-it was saved.

Probably to smooth over the fact that they (unnecessarily, IMO) killed off Derek. Little Ellis is a consolation prize. I like that Meredith is moving to Boston to work on curing Alzheimer's - it's a nice call back to when Derek had an offer from Harvard and he said he wanted to cure Alzheimer's. Things have come full circle. Zola's well being is the priority, and now she gets to thrive in a new environment and Meredith has a great opportunity. The family wins. Little Derek Bailey and Ellis will adapt. Bonus: Meredith gets to work with Jackson, April, and Koracick again. And Callie and Arizona are close by in NYC. I hope this setup for Meredith's exit sticks, though if it does, I'm curious to see what will bring her back (if Ellen decides to come back)... Unless it is as simple as Meredith making visits from time to time, but it feels like at the very least the days of Meredith Grey being present in every episode (voice overs aside) will be over. I could care less about Lucas hiding the fact that he's a Shepherd. The whole plot is dumb. All of these residents were picked from the bottom of the barrel, so it's not like his family name gave him any more favor over his peers. JMO I've always loved Addison and Miranda's friendship and I really enjoyed them working together. I don't know how much or often Kate Walsh will be available being that she basically lives in Australia now, but I hope to see more of them together in the future working on women's reproductive health. It was great to see Jackson and Tom again. Jesse Williams did a great job directing.

This is the first episode I've thoroughly enjoyed in years.

Unpopular opinion: I rather Vinny win than either of the D'Amelios. He's not very good but at least he's trying. And though he's a reality star, that's far more legit than being a social media influencer and social media influencer's mom. I agree, he should've went home already, and I would hate to see anyone else leave before him (aside from the non-star D'Amelios). I do think Wayne will make it to the final and hopefully him being a legit star can get the votes needed to overcome the ringer. ETA: It makes no sense that Len's vote is the deciding/tie breaking vote. In the event of a tie, it should come down to which dancer received the most votes. At least that would be more fair and would cut out the judges playing favorites.

Jordin's in the bottom for the first time and gets sent home. I am LIVID. This was Heidi's second time in the bottom. It was her time to go. And then there's Vinny. These judges and their little pets are so fuggin annoying.

Thank goodness this season is finally over. Gold stars for Garcelle and Sutton. And Kathy, too. The three RHOBH women who got the loudest applause at Bravo Con. Suck on that, fraud force.

So I guess no one ever finds out that Stephen was behind the wheel of the crash that killed Macy. He gets to just literally walk away and never face consequences. May a meteor drop on his head by the time this show is over.

I love Addison, it's great to see her again, but I do hope tptb don't sacrifice her Private Practice happy ending just because she's guest starring. I like that she's working so close with Miranda, they've always had a great friendship. Zola is her father's daughter. Yes, I'm giving Derek the credit. St. Meredith of the Sun gets enough praise and I don't have to give it to her. Marla Gibbs, legend and national treasure. The emotional heart of this episode. I hope the show reinstates Richard as Chief of Surgery once Meredith goes wherever she's going to go (to explain Ellen's absence for the majority of the season). It's almost ridiculous how much of a revolving door that title has been, but Richard Weber has always been Chief to me.

If Andy Cohen can't be unbiased, he needs to not host the reunions that have his Housewives faves and friends. He is incapable of holding these women accountable.

Ramona too often gets a bad rap, some of it justifiable and deserved, but I also think people see her as an easy target to slam.

What did Tony Danza do to deserve this?

Gutted that Selma has bowed out. Understandable, but she has been grace and class personified and I will miss her. The training week to week is challenging for any person on this journey, add to that her health condition, and what she's been able to accomplish is truly inspirational. She deserves all of the 10s. I barely paid attention to both tik tok and her mom. Mark probably only agreed to come back if he had someone good. It's just not all that interesting.

I don't know why Bravo couldn't just have a new series with NY women representing the city's "diversity" (because let's be honest, this is what the unnecessary reboot is really all about), something along the lines of Girlfriends of Paris, and leave the RHONY franchise alone. All RHONY had to do was ditch Leah and Eboni, who were too toxic (the former) and not a good fit (the latter). Bershan should've been given a chance because she seemed to have the RHONY vibe - which is to say she's there for a good time, eventually will get into a squabble (like she did with Sonja), but then they hug it out and get back to having a good time. That's what RHONY has always been. Leah's toxicity and Eboni's Ted Talks were not it. And, who knows, maybe the ol' gals have some friends or acquaintances who represent other races/cultures that could have been added... I'm all for diversity and different points of view, but why after one so-so season and one terrible season off of COVID does RHONY need a complete overhaul when RHOC, RHONJ and RHOA get to lack diversity? (answer: it's because firing Eboni would've been a bad look even though reasons would be valid and not because of her race) Rebooting RHONY is a scapegoat. And Twitter ruins everything. JMO

I presume the "F" means fake, and FHONY is pronounced phony.

It's a NO for me. I saw someone on Twitter refer to the reboot as FHONY. lol Fitting.

Not even half. She's only going to be in 8.

Night before BravoCon and Kathy got her conga line!

I laughed out loud when Charli said in her package that she trained in jazz as the video segued to her practicing her jazz routine for the week. The show is laughing in our faces, it's so fucking ridiculous.

Interns = first year residents.
