    Yeah, Sutton's 50 (or 51 depending on her birthday). I'm assuming her store caters to ladies of a certain age.

    But if she established her store in '71 and she herself is now 50/51 wouldn't we have seen articles like "Infant Fashion Impresario Brings Couture Diapers to Beverly Hills Boutique"? That sign just set my mind to wondering ...

    (just saw your post Zettak! In light of Suttons oddity and eccentricity I can buy she might think folks would get the joke. But I'd think only those who knew her personally would & even then maybe not 🤔. Somehow I don't think its been a Sunday picnic to be Sutton...)

  3. Lord above! Emily is flat out repulsive-- physically overall, facially repulsive, her clothing is repulsive, her personality is repulsive, her voice, her attitude, her actions toward others, the things she says- esp.  to Shannon- repugnant, ugly, repulsive!!

     We considered seeing if we could pay someone $5 to just walk. up and smack her right in that awful mouth but since she never shuts it the smack would land in her mouth and then rabies shots would be involved. But it was a happy thought for a minute there...

    I just knew I'd heard some of Elsa's last voice over before! Beth Dutton - seas.2 ep. 7

     

    I caught that when she said it too! I'm thinking that Elsa's voice overs are entries from her diary and perhaps the diary will make an appearance in a Yellowstone episode with Beth showing Rip where she got that philosophical idea she shared with him when they were on that roof...

     I am jealous that Josh and Heather have a home in LA and a home in Newport. These two have it all and they are young enough to enjoy it. They even have close knit families that all like each other. I mean, it's a fairytale, right? 

    Josh and Bobby have a beautiful life, too. They pick up and travel to Paris or other fabulous destinations on a whim (Bobby said in an interview that Josh was spontaneous like that and liked to surprise him). It's nice to see Josh working with charities and giving back to the community. I like that he said his parents raised him to know the importance of philanthropy and he follows through with that. 

    All in all both couples seem like they are grounded and decent people despite their life of luxury and wealth that few of us are afforded. 

     

    I so agree with this! I've always adored Flagg & glad I can finally like Altman-- marriage and fatherhood have been transformative. I  also appreciate that he recognizes he         "married up" 😉 Heather is gorgeous, smart, and they certainly present as tho' they truly love each other.

      What I'm curious about re: Altman is what are those weird circle things on his back? I realize they're likely some sort of tattoo-- but?  At first glance I thought he'd had a skin disease of some sort, or perhaps needed skin grafts due to an accident of some sort. Anyone know what they are/maybe where to see a close-up pic of what they actually look like?

     From his love of bright orange to that enormous creepy  metal face-wall  in his office his taste causes my synapses to curl into themselves kinda like the Witch of the East's feet curled back under Dorothy's house. So what those things on his back might be brings a sense of horrified fascination....

      Also -- that "hammock" bathtub!😲 Amazing concept-- not sure how it works tho'. Didn't think it looked deep enough for a satisfying soak &  does the dirty water drain out onto a bed of rocks?

      I thoroughly enjoyed this episode (all 4 episodes actually). The houses were great esp. the $40 mil one and the one the client purchased (I'd just live outside in that yard!)

     Really nice to see the Joshes bust out the maturity and make nice with the mutual apologies and behave like pleasant adults.

     Bravo could simply extend these 4 episodes into a season of Flagg, Altman and spouses & never look back to the messy, overpopulated, unnecessarily drama-ridden original. This viewer, at least, would rejoice.💃

    It is a good thing your 5 year old did not ask about the massive back cleavage Emily was showing off, does she not ever see the back of herself?

    Actually that's exactly what she was referring to. She thought the open back of the dress which showed Emily's bare back exposing a "jiggly" area with the "crack" formed where her too tight dress pushed the flesh on either side together was somehow her buttocks even tho' they weren't in the usual place !

     When I watched the scene again that's exactly what it looks like to me now & I can't seem to unsee it😳!

    I seem to remember she wore a dress with a similarly  placed cutout on a previous episode (maybe the same dress?) Doesn't she have a full length mirror  and at least a good hand mirror to see how she appears from the rear view? Doesn't anyone around her notice/ care enough to tell her "Hey, your clothes are ill-fitting and you appear to have an extra (unnaturally high) bare ass !"? 

       Kinda tragic....

    Saw the guy who plays the asshole with alligator seats while fast-forwarding through a commercial break, so I rewound see what he had to say.  Just wanted to know what the guy does in real life.  Imagine my surprise when that asshole turned out to be the showrunner!  Explains so much, really...

    Uh, just a clarification--- if you're referring to the driver of the truck who chased Jimmy out due to his back brace? That's Taylor Sheridan himself. Writer, originator, director, main producer, actual horseman & rider, ranch owner, big boss, top dog & fervent believer in his own omniscience in the world of Western TV Shows.

    Sheridan is currently engaged in an internal contest between his talent and his ego which is producing too much dust right now for observers to see which is winning (altho' early indicators currently put ego slightly ahead).

     We judges are sitting on the top rail of the corral watching with narrowed eyes to see which bets will pay off.

  8. Just a word here because I watched episode 1 & 2 of 1883 at 12:03 AM today and I'm already hooked. Found myself already looking for hints of the modern day Duttons in the story.  I'll hand it to Sheridan on the writing for these premier episodes. You can tell his heart is in this one. 

    And it's a great cast. Tom Hanks has a cameo! I'm going to be happily immersed in Yellowstone past and present for the next few weeks. I've had Paramount+ since it was CBS+ (for The Good Fight) &  now my longing for Westerns  can be sated a bit, too. Worth the $9.99.

    Now to see if the original Yellowstone keeps up its standard or if my concern that Sheridan is spread too thin bears out.

    Maybe he can keep all these shows wonderful and spinning on those poles and he'll only get divorced due to overwork while the audience stays blissful 😁

    And maybe now Yellowstone won't be interrupted by ads for 1883 now that its actually airing.

  9. I truly do not get why the Project Runway designers aren't able to properly dress women of size.

     I recommend they tune into The Voice which nearly every season has large and extra large contestants and the wardrobe people manage to find/create beautiful well fitting outfits for all every single week. Sometimes multiple outfits for each person on each show. Those contestants look great in the clothes.

    And the people who put the looks together do not claim to be "designers" like Project Runways bumblers do.

    Agree with those who call for Elaine to be removed from judgeship. Brandon has some merits but he's certainly no Michael Kors-- whose humor and biting bon mots are sorely needed on this version of the show.  

    While the runway garments themselves  frequently provide (mostly unintended) humour a bit of wit from the panel would feel like fresh water in the desert!

  10. While I am looking forward to "1883", my first post re episode 1 I was already complaining about the plethora of ads for that,  & "King of Kingston" -I know that's not the true title but my ears won't accept any more--  they literally added extra time to that episode, not for Yellowstone but due to all the damn commercials for the other shows!

     I'm concerned about Sheridan branching out like this (not to mention his new show on CMT "The Last Cowboy" -- I believe that's the title -- about those million dollar fancy cutters recently featured on Yellowstone).

     Since I'm pretty terminally old and have been an avid television watcher awa having various family folk in that industry in many different occupations I can say my concern here  has been bourne  out many times over past years. When a good writer gets it right and produces a great show then for some reason -- ego, over-eagerness, pent up frustration to make some long-delayed dream project, whatever --- the good writer decides they have the talent, managerial skills, super powers to do it all & all at once. And the original great show inevitably begins to go from great, to good, to ok, to so-so, to "eh", to "Is that still on?"

     So I'm now officially starting to worry for Yellowstone.

    First sign that brings the brow furrowing:

      Did the writer forget that "wearing the brand" means a permanent place on the ranch? Teeter wears the brand. And she met Johns criteria of "mean or ugly" when hired. And she's a great hand. And she was attacked and injured on behalf of the ranch. And she participated in the murder of the attackers thus holding secrets that heretofore leave on the long black train.

      So does that brand stand as the big bad deal we've been told it does? Or does this turn of tale indicate an oversight by a distracted writer with attention spread too thin to properly attend to story details? Or worse, think viewers forgot?

    The need for some suspension of disbelief has always been a feature of Yellowstone but this sort of stumble interferes with the overall flow like an annoying pebble in your shoe. 

    One pebble is not a huge deal but if there are consistent pebbles and eventually rocks of distraction? Well, then the viewers just tell the show to kick those down the road.

      I'm concerned.🤔

  11. Somehow,  I missed   the implication of the name "militia " when  Kayce  used that  during his hot spring chat with John. I took it to be his term for a general organized group of attackers & missed connecting it to the extremists hired by the Becks to kidnap Tate.

     I accepted without question that both Becks were thoroughly dead at the end of season 2. And now I've heard a theory that possibly Martin survived and organized the blitz attack on the Yellowstone & the individual Duttons.

     This is definitely interesting. If the attacks were not at the direction of Market Equities or Jamie's bio-dad & the killers were indeed the same extremists from the kidnapping then revenge replaces greed as primary motive. ME motives were wanting the power & $$$ that creating a new city/ destination for the 1% would bring.

     Jamie was willing and able to hand over the acreage due to Beth's accidental mistake in the paperwork that put the decisions in Jamie's hands & not hers as she thought.     With John out of commission Jamie  was able to go ahead and lease the land so ME could begin to "pave this place over" as the old witch stated. I'm sure Jamie made/is making a bunch of money for himself from the deal.

      Sounded like Willa was fired or at least removed from the Yellowstone project. 

       And Roarke is dead. Death by serpent for that human snake. Very apropros Rip, old boy!😁😉

     I agree with Kayce that Jamie leased & didn't sell because he's still deeply emotionally invested with the Duttons.      His whole life has been trying to live up to & be worthy of the family he's up to now believed was his blood & those feelings didn't suddenly stop just because he found out it wasn't.

     He's hurt and angry & his newly discovered parent is presenting him with the idea he is  worthy of respect and capable of manifesting power of his own. Which he has never believed himself capable of.

      Of course NewDad wants to convince Jamie of all this because NewDad sees Jamie's weakness, self-doubt,  neediness & feeling of being unloved as a shiny wide open path to a wealthy, comfortable, life of ease and power for himself with a bonus of some revenge on John Dutton. He's  just internally rubbing his hands in glee at how easy it is to manipulate this kid.

     Jamie's just inherently clueless & innocent of involvement in the attacks. He really doesn't have the stomach for the killing stuff (recall his reaction to that reporter he dispatched?).

       If the extremist militia are the active killers then the head honchos behind it might well have come from the direction that the Becks were last seen. Perhaps an unknown family member seeking retribution for the demise of Teal & Martin?

     Or the militia organized the whole thing on their own purely out of  payback for the killing and destruction of that particular cell of theirs.

  12. hate drunks!!!  Alcohol makes pigs of people. Actually it elevates swine above the drinkers. Its been responsible for the worst,  most destructive, traumatic periods and events in my life & I'd rather catch covid than be near that.

     Immediately upon these subhuman vats of anal fungus setting foot onboard I would jump overboard & I'm a mediocre swimmer who's terrified of ocean swimming.

     I made note of the names because I live in the area where these ass- pustules purport to work and intend to make absolutely sure no one of my acquaintance will ever use any one of them for anything ever! Disgusting.

      Poor Captain Lee. Many points for being able to sit thru that dinner (& even more sympathies).

      (Obviously I'm a teensy bit reactive to this subject, I realize. Now making herbal tea to chase the last bit of soothing mushroom - infused chocolate bar & prevent nightmares. )

  13.  Ok. I'm admitting I'm obsessive about this damn show. Might be due to the overlong damn pandemic induced wait between seasons. I just finished my 3rd watch of the premiere which brought some thoughts of possibility as to what may be in store. I certainly might be way off base here,, but I'm currently thinking the attacks didn't all come from a single source.

     I'm thinking Jamie didn't have anything to actually do with the attack on John. I'm going to predict it was his criminal father who decided that all on his own (and Jamie currently has no idea Daddy did this). Got his buddy from prison to put the hit together and somehow presented it to  Market Equities (Roarke / Willa) for funding. (Or maybe the money came from elsewhere). He's already playing Jamie. Sees him as a ticket to the good life for himself. Already has Jamie buying that new property -- telling him he shouldn't buy the horses he wants to because of' "dad" is planning on taking the place for himself and continuing to push Jamie to take as much from the Yellowstone as he can.

    Poor hapless Jamie. He's such a needy outcast of his own making. So emotionally imbalanced.

      I'm also curious to see what ,if anything, happens to Willa since I'm thinking she was behind the bomb sent to Beth.  So far no women have been shown being taken to the train station but she might be the 1st if she sent the package.

     Just so so happy this show is back!!😄💘 Even tho' 10 episodes is just plain unfairly stingy.

    Yes, you are probably absolutely correct there.  Cottonmouths/water moccasins were the only snake I knew could swim.  Until now....

    Sweet geezus, all snakes can swim?!  Nightmare fuel!!

    I know that they're doing the "tough love" thing with that kid Beth brought home, but maybe don't shove him, nearly ditch him on the side of the road, and just generally treat him like shit?  This poor kid is definitely ending up a murderer under Rip and Beth's care.  

     Outside of actual"water snakes" most avoid the water unless they're forced in by a flood or escape from a predator. So altho' they can swim they don't like it much and rattlers & copperheads etc. won't chase you into the water -usually 😁...

    Yep. The kid will turn out just like his new "parental units". Probably gonna drive someone to the train station as soon as his drivers licence is valid...

  15. Re: The roadside mom & kid from Johns attempted murder.

    I do wish there'd been some closure there but since we saw the mom gunned down and the kid didn't show up while John was lying by the roadside for what appeared to be some time I suppose we are to assume the kid was killed by a stray bullet. Or possibly ran away and might turn up later on.  Wish the writers had addressed this even in passing. But never mind I guess...

    Also I wasn't thrilled to have so much time devoted to ads for Sheridan upcoming new shows but they do look good!! 

    Particularly want to see the 1890 (?) Western! Also I believe there's another spin-off coming that's going to be connected with Jimmy and where Travis is taking him. So Jimmy is gone from Yellowstone (at least for awhile) and serving as an anchor for the new show whatever the name is (something w 6666 in the title?)

    I'd love to know where the Duttons are getting all the money for the big time rodeo team they are sponsoring when they keep whining that they can barely afford the property taxes. 

    So when Beth gets fired, she taunts that her soon to be former boss is the CO owner of all the land they acquired. Who is the other owner ? Market Equities now ?

     

     

    I believe the deal w Travis (that I love is played by Sheridan himself-- and him getting to show off some riding skills) is being based mostly on spec of a sort & pretty sure John can manage a loan from somewhere. And Travis was confident about "stacking checks on the desk as thick as a phone book".

    I believe that was a timber rattler not a cottonmouth. The venom is way more deadly and quick acting and also that snake is common in that part of the country-- cottonmouths are found mostly in lower Midwest & the South -- lower elevations and warmer climes. All snakes can swim btw. Cottonmouth are aggressive awa vicious. A million years ago I had some acreage on a river on the Ks.-Mo border and some of the kids were swimming while we checked the trotline when a cottonmouth swam towards the swimmers. They hightailed it to the overhanging trees & pulled up out of the water and that snake wound itself around a protruding root and was stretching and snapping at one terrified girl right up until one of the adults who had brought his rifle blew its head right off. Nasty Critters...

  17. Erica imitated Bette Davis to a T tonight. Every overdramatic villaness  she ever played and wound up as Baby (ericka) Jayne.

    When people are under stress their true nature shows. Some rise to a higher- even noble - aspect. Ericka drops low. The vicious (someone even dropped that word tonight) snarling, nasty,, self righteous, angry, hard bitch she manages to keep in check when things are going her way roars out in full force when real stress comes.

     She's exposed now. A low- class, poorly raised unfortunate who stumbled into a life she'd likely have done anything to get and was amazed that all she had to finally do was marry an old man. She's shown no kindness of nature nor tenderness of thought or action if she indeed has ever had those qualities.   

    Perhaps her out of proportion reaction to anyone not believing what she says might be rooted in a past investment in her portrayal of herself as being several stations above the hard core trashy piece of work she's shown herself to be on RHOBH & environs.

     Can't help but wonder how she'll behave on the show going forward. Probably won't be able to change behavior all that much tho she might try once she gets more familiar with the stress. Won't matter. She's been seen now & what social capital she may have scrounged up during the Tom Times has no doubt dried up and blown away.

    Too bad Andy isn't letting Ericka do the same.
