  1. I think Billy Gardell basically plays the same "husky nice guy" in every show, lol. But what I don't understand is how Abishola could be considered such as prize either, other than the fact that Bob's obviously very lonely. She doesn't radiate any kind of warmth or pleasantness. I fall into Bob's demographic, and Abby does nothing for me. I'm into funny, quirky, friendly, interesting women. The "ah, I'll tolerate you" vibe from Abishola kind of bugs, even though she's softening to him. Amen Sister. Wish there were more women out there like you. 🙂
  2. Yeah it kinda bugs that they take the most functional character on this show and breaks her in ways that don't totally make sense. As far as her eatery is concerned, some of Gina's questionable decisions, I believe, are due to her constantly having to pull the weight for an absentee partner. In other news, Delilah and Gary were tolerable for the first time in ages. Loved that he finally stepped up and publicly made Katherine feel welcome. Time will tell if Delilah will pull her weight in the business. Also, on a shall note, I wish someone would do something about D's hair. Always looks like a messy bird''s nest, lol.
  3. It's not working. That's baby bump is showing even in scrubs and you can see the pregnancy weight gain in her face.
  4. Oh that's SO funny. Now all I can think of is Nina growling "you have brought dishonor upon my hoooouse..." In other (shallow news), Nina and Valentin made the least attractive wedding couple I have ever seen. Only on this soap could they be romantic leads. Frisco and Felicia they ain't.
  5. Speaking as an ADOS, the bias exists between many immigrants of color (such as those from the Caribbean) towards us. The general (usually incorrect) impression they have is that we ADOS often fail to take advantage of all the opportunities available here in America, making us, ah, less than admirable. Sad, but true. I've heard it myself many times.
  6. He's honoring that by not telling Nia about what her future holds (specifically) or that one of her descendants (Dream Girl) will be one of the Legion of Super Hero's founding members. Totally agree. Five years now, and we're back to freaking Guardian? A concept that never worked in the first place. He needs a regular role on one of the Big Three networks. Shallow follow-up: Melissa is a true heart commander. Unique combination of adorable and super-hot sexy. She really was rocking that pink dress without really trying. Disappointed that they're making Lena evil just for the sake of having another season-long "big bad" arc. It's not like Lena hasn't kept secrets from Kara too. Kinda meh on the pants thing, but it looks better than the cheerleader outfit.
  7. This could be wrong, but I don't think Lena has powers anymore. Didn't all of that end with her experiments last season? The device that Nia uses was created by Brainy. It channels her "dream power" into some kind of concussive force blast. The concentric circle effect kind of reminds me of Havok in the old X-Men comics, only not as cool.
  8. Seems like she's been "easing" into the work, no pun intended. According to the inter webs, she's been posting topless and semi-nude pics online since about 2014. And there's been hardcore stuff online featuring her for at least 2 years now. I think the recent articles are just meant to drive publicity for her new movie.
  9. I "liked" this post primarily because Bob represents a certain demographic in our society that probably flies under the radar. This show is getting off to a relatively slow start for a Lorre production, but I'm going to stick around to see if it finds its legs. I heart Billy Gardell, from what I read he's a really sweet, decent guy IRL. Remember him getting an unexpected standing ovation from the audience on the View a few years back. He's got John Candy-potential, IMO, and I'd like to see him get a big screen opportunity.
  10. It's interesting how this news just broke. IRRC, she's been doing porn for about three years now. Not saying how I heard....
  11. Speaking of old shows, anyone else remember the ABC drama Brothers and Sisters? That was my jam back in the day. A gifted, A-list cast (Sally Field, Rachel Griffiths, Ron Rifkin, and Matthew Rhys among others) and very plausible, entertaining story lines. It was too good to last, though, and barely got 100 episodes.
  12. Sorry, but there is absolutely no evidence that Delilah can use Google without help. 🐵
  13. Honestly, I hope Gary gets head lice. Or scabbies. Or fleas. Anything just to get him to chill the fuck out and act like a normal person every once in a while. The healthiest thing would be for her to cultivate her own circle of new friends. With everything else Katherine is dealing with, even infrequent exposure to that crew should be enough to push her over the edge.
  14. Since this show finished fairly strong in the final two or so episodes of last season (and I really want to like it) I came back for Season 2. But another couple of episodes like this and I'm out. As another poster noted, when a show-runner or head writer becomes such a focal point of conversation (unless it's someone iconic like Dick Wolf) there's a real problem going on. The Good Place is one of my favorite shows ever and it takes me three minutes to remember Show-runner Mike Schur's name. Probably the way it should be. There's just so much talent on this show - it could be light years better than it is. Grace Park is killing it - her face betrays the toll this situation is taking on her. Btw, when Katherine asked Eddie "what did she have?" (regarding the gender of Delilah's baby) did anyone else initially think she meant "what does Delilah have that I don't?" In other news, either separately or together Maggie and Gary are one of the most annoying television couples ever.
  15. Gary tries too hard to be the "edgy, madcap guy." It kinda bugs. Rome's humor is more organic and gives you real insight into how he views the world. Gary would be a much more likeable character, IMO, if he just dialed it back a few notches.
  16. Actually I get that one. I'm not big on Freud, but old Sigmund was absolutely right when he said "depression is anger turned inward." Every time Maggie or Gary go off on a rant against someone that's offended them, there's always going to be a segment of the audience that relates and cheers.
  17. Where have you gone Luke and Laura? Or Frisco and Felicia? or Robert and Anna? True action-adventure couples. Sad thing is, a few of them are still on the show, back-burnered and sacrificed at the altar of JaSam.
  18. Dear Stone Cold: Next time, go for the head. Just sayin. (MCU fans will get that one.)
  19. Actually it was very material to the whole conversation. As with many immigrants, Abishola's family is all about reaping the benefits of living in America. Right or wrong, she wants her son to become a Doctor and academic performance is key to that. She sized the other boy up based on his mother and wanted to convey the sentiment "oh that no-class idiot isn't going to hold my son back." Maybe Abishola could have handled it more skillfully, but I endorse her stance. For what it's worth, the Principal came off really badly here, especially if both students weren't suspended.
  20. Why are so many children in commercials obnoxious these days? The one that really makes me cringe is the new Raisin Bran commercial. Loving Dad is watching his tween daughter ride off on her bike. He tells her to be careful and make good choices. She snottily replies "you make good choices." If that's my daughter, the good choice I make is to take the bike away for about a week or so until she figures out how to speak to an adult respectfully.
  21. In real life, these combined companies would have no authors or investors and stockholders would be running for the hills. Also, staff would spend more time sending out resumes than actually working. The companies' senior management (outside of Diana for the most part) have a lot of personal/professional baggage that the whole world knows about; they'd almost certainly be considered laughable toxicity in the real publishing industry, even Diana for choosing to stay there. 😞
  22. The comments on this board are on fire and better than anything aired last night IMO. Yep, I pretty much said the same thing weeks ago. Only because this is a Darren Starr show has TV Land suspended their "five-years-and-done" edict for original programming. And sadly, Younger's creative crew doesn't have the chops to carry off the two additional years. Kelsey has so much growing up to do. Yes, you fucked-up girl. Own it and move on. However, she did a good job speaking at the all-girl school, so there's that. As an admittedly shallow male I can tell you why - his hormones + her rocking body. If they do any of that I'll regret any second invested in this show.
  23. When art and life intersect: https://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/ny-gabrielle-carteris-lied-to-90210-producers-about-her-age-20190816-zcw2vqzy6fhz5iearqs46cyygm-story.html
  24. Diana and Liza are so obviously contemporaries that it almost hurts, lol. So tired of Diana being used for comic relief, the actress and character deserve so much better. From a male perspective, all the female leads are stunning in their own unique ways: Liza with her long legs and fantastic figure; Kelsey with her compact, curvy thickness, Diana with her sophistication and maturity, and Maggie with her exotic beauty (those eyes!) and Reuben-esque hotness. Even her overbite is sexy, lol. ETA - Is it just me, or did Maggie seem open to another romp in the sack with Rafael until his smug "I flip lesbians" comment?
