An actual "live" show today, lol. Gotta say, I'm so enjoying Mark, he's a natural conversationalist. Kelly, otoh, still has trouble connecting the dots. You can tell he adores her, he just sits and smiles as she tries to string a sentence together, lol.

Kellmeee is very thin, I thought the green dress looked awful on her, I'm guessing she's a size 000, lol. I have been enjoying Mark, I think he's found his groove. I just don't understand why it's so hard for Kelllmeee to speak. Even with Mark sitting next to her, it takes 10 minutes for her to spit out two sentences. What are all of her pauses for? Can she not think of her words? I just don't get it. I grin when Deja introduces them and she says ...."and MARK CONSUELOOOOS!!!!'

These two are just too much. Just when I'm starting to think things are really good (I am enjoying Mark, Kellllmeeee still can't speak) they pull their favors for friends card. In case anyone missed it, today's crap chat consisted of a full-blown commercial for good buddy, Andy Cohen's Vanderpump Rules show that airs tonight. Make no mistake, I will be watching it but for Kelllmeeee and MARK CONSUELOS!!! to go on and on ad nauseum about the show as well as Kelllmeeee's podcast, which in case anyone missed it, drops today, lol, was just too much. I'm surprised Gelman let them continue. Then MARK CONSUELOS starts the recap of the show and the whole Scandoval debacle and then we get to hear how the Consuelos kids feel about everything. And then MARK CONSUELOS, suave guy that he is, begins to give us the 3 cardinal rules of cheating men and the 'how and why' of how they get caught, much to the chagrin of Kelllmeeeee, lol. I wonder how the suits at Disney/ABC feel about the free advertisement for Bravo. I guess NBC felt pretty good about it though. These two are a hoot! P.S. You know I still abhor Kellllmeee's dancing out to her chair, cheeks puffed, lips pursed, arms in the air.....omg, enough already, lol.

Anyone else think it was strangely odd when Kellllmeee and MARK CONSUELOS!! discussed selfies and the kinds of people who take them?? I don't know how they kept a straight face. The both of them are the King and Queen of selfies and thirst traps. And guess what?? The people that take selfies are narcissists!! Can you imagine?? lol How Kellllmeeee said she rarely takes them and only takes pics of the family is beyond me! Most of their selfies are very sexual in nature or full of double entendre or they are exhibiting their fabulous bodies for everyone to admire. But no.....these two....no selfies for them! Narcissists, the both of them, straight from the horses' mouths, lol.

I have been enjoying Mark's stories too--because he is sharing their personal stories kind of like the way Reege did. I disagree that he's 'way' better than Ryan only because Ryan was very adept at story telling.....it was Kellllmee that was NOT a willing conversationalist with him, imo. With Mark, she is willing to talk and share things that she would never have even broached with Reege, Strahan or Ryan. And furthermore, when she does try and converse with Mark to add to his story, she still stammers, and stutters and says 'ahhhh' and 'ummmmm' so many times it makes me sick, lol. Mark has even filled in her blanks with the words she needs to say; I think it must be painful for him to watch his wife struggle to finish a thought and sentence. He has improved a hundred-fold, imo.

Hoping that Mr. and Mrs. Consuelos regale us with stories of the White House Correspondents Dinner they attended over the week-end. I'm getting the sense that the Mr. is more apt to share personal stories and the Mrs. is a bit hesitant. At least all of her stammering and 'ummms' and 'ahhhhs' would lead me to believe that. Then again, maybe it's a 'pre-recorded' segment as they may need an extra day to recuperate, lol.

Oh, you know Kelllmeee was definitely annoyed. She doesn't take criticism well and I really thought she'd address it on the show but maybe Gelman told her to keep her trap shut, lol. I have to hand it to them, they negotiated quite a deal....she has to work filming that awful show, Generation Gap, and her husband gets to miss work to tag along with her, lol. Why didn't he stay and host with Allie Wentworth or someone else that usually fills in for Kellllmeeee. And the crap chat has reached a new level of ridiculousness. It is so fake, so inauthentic. Every topic MARK CONSUELOS!!! brings up, Kellllmeee acts so surprised! Wait, aren't you husband and wife? Don't you two live together?? So MARK CONSUELOS!!!! shares the riveting news his allergies are non-existant and this is news to Kellllmeee?? I just can't with these two and Gelman is to blame just as much with those awful articles he places in front of them almost covering the whole desk. Here's a novel idea, why don't the both of you just 'talk' and not rely on ridiculous news articles placed in front of you. Gosh, Reege has to be doing 360's in his grave to see what 'host chat' has devolved into with these two bumblers. Pull the plug, pull the plug.....

Agree 100% about the peetering out part but she takes part of the blame as well...she's awful, they both are!

Another lame show. For me, it has entered a new low with these two no-talent humans. Several things stand out for me that weren't quite so blatant before: Gelman's incessant guffawing in the background when either of the Consueloses say anything; Kellllmeeee's eyes darting over to Gelman all the time to look for direction and cues, I'm sure; Kellllmeee's high pitched voice and change of accent as she tries to carry an inane story; Mark trying to tell a story and being interrupted by Kellllmeeee; Kellllmeeee's forced full blown hysterical laughing face and staring at Mark whenever they do anything (check out the end of the yoga segment). I don't think it ever occurred to Mrs. Consuelos in all the years she's been co-host that all the males have really carried the show. She basically just did hair , make-up and wardrobe and came out and posed. She may have added a comment here or there, but for the most part, her partner did all the heavy lifting on the show. With Ryan, he was quite skillful in the way he told a story, he could segue with ease, he knew how to save an awkward situation with a joke or even a look. These two bumblers don't have a clue! Their stories are so lame.....omg, Kellmeeee dyes her hair with a famous colorist and it reminds MARK CONSUELOS!!!! of his mother and father dying her hair. Really? Hmmmm....planned or unplanned? Again, just so lame. I used to always say, "Run, Regis, run....." My new mantra is "Pull the plug, pull the plug....pull..... Btw, for all intents and purposes, all media sites have panned the new show except for all the sycophants on the Live! site. I believe they block any and all negative posts. "Pull the plug!"

It seems like they are going back to a live audience, saw it somewhere, maybe on the Live! FB page? Also thought someone mentioned that only days to get tickets were Tues through Thursday...guess they're keeping their 'previously recorded' schedule? Watched Monday and Tuesday, Kelllmeeee seems particularly nervous, her high-pitched voice is a tell along with her full-on laughing about things that are only mildly funny, if that. And seriously felt bad for MARK CONSUELOS!!!! when she ripped out her phone to play ad nauseum the sound of his snoring. What's next? Farting and belching on the couch?? For a moment, the look on his face was of embarassment but then he just took her gut punch and rolled with it. Saw lots of articles on-line that called their debut 'awful' and so many viewers thought it painful to watch and how contrived and rehearsed crap chat seemed. Almost all said they wished Kelllmeee would just 'shut-up' and let her hubby finish a sentence. I think this is harder than she expected and may be having second thoughts. The internet is overflowing with articles about Kelllmeeee, guess she's paying her publicist overtime. The latest headline is Kellllmeee ready to retire....if only!!! lol

I saw an on-line article about Ryan's farewell and how it was 'pre-recorded.' It was worthy of a post at TWOP, lol. Kind of implied that it was kind of a half-hearted send-off for Ryan and was that the best they could do? Also kind of mocked Kellllmeeee's comments about Ryan and how she said that because of sitting next to her, people got to know Ryan, as if all of his years in the entertainment industry kept folks in the dark about his many talents, etc. On another note, Kelllmeeee's IG account if full of her and MARK CONSUELOS!!! filming publicity for Live!!! I'm curious to know what they negotiated for his salary and when she actually started campaigning for her immortal beloved to take the seat next to her since Ryan said he told "Kel" at least a year ago. Wonder if it was an easy sell or did she have to take a hard stand and really fight for him. Happy Sunday!

I have to agree, I think Ryan had his fill of Kelllmeeee, and while I do think he had some fun during his time there, I think he realized it was time for him to get the heck out of Dodge. He's a very smart guy, he's set goals for himself and I think he made a smart move taking the job at Live! and making his mark and then leaving when he did. I thought he was sincere, for the most part, in his farewell remarks but I think Kelllmeeee was a little less genuine; it seemed she was reading most of her farewell from the tele-prompter and I did think it was nice at the end when MARK CONSUELOS!!!!!! came out and they passed the mug. It remains to be seen how well Mr. and Mrs. Consuelos do at the helm of Live! I wonder what the dynamic will be, will Kellllmeeeee be the alpha dog or acquiesce to her hubby? I do think she'll continue to sit there like a potted plant and let Mark do all the heavy lifting just as she did with Ryan. Very disappointed that the show was recorded but as I already said, I think Ryan was ready to get the heck out of town. Did everyone see Aubrey there? She kind of resembles Ryan a little bit, lol. I will miss him, he seems like a genuinely nice guy who loves his family very much and there's something to be said about a guy that feels that way about his parents and sibling and isn't afraid to show it.

So I wonder if this week will be all pre-recorded shows again? Will their send-off for Ryan be pre-taped as well? This is just such a weird show and backstory presently. Kellllmeeee's publicity team is working overtime to put her name out there and it's mostly about her sex life or how awful she's been treated as a woman in the Live! franchise. Suck it up buttercup, for a minimally talented actress and a no-talent 'talk' show host, you've done pretty well for yourself and your family.

Yes, I absolutely remember watching these new 30 Minute Meal episodes because they were so cringe-worthy, imo. She looked so messed up, dirty, sloppy, messy and her husband looked even worse than her and I could not believe how she cut him down and belittled him any moment she could. It was must-see TV much like SLOP was back in the day, lol.

Wow! Kellllmeeee pulling out all the stops and going balls to the wall with her new podcast. In the preview, which is all over the internet, she calls out her immortal beloved MARK CONSUELOS!!!!! for his insane jealousy during their marriage saying how difficult it was being married to him. I guess maybe she's thinking any publicity is good publicity for their new venture together with Live! Not Live!?? Yikes! And, as I figured, she gets to drop the F bomb at will, lol.

My gut reaction is that it's Kelllmeee's doing, making anyone in the studio wear a mask because of her aversion to germs, etc. I'm trying to recall if the crew are wearing masks when we see them on camera? I don't get it but then I don't have to get it, I'm not one of the Executive Producers of Live! Not Live! but Kellllmeeee is, lol.

I'm not sure but I personally think they are just a bunch of either execs, interns, friends of execs....not their typical studio audience. And sorry, not sorry, they are seriously all sitting there in masks?

Monday and another pre-recorded show? Why even bother anymore?

So it seems she's returning to her roots, a "30 Minute Meals" project. I wonder how she'll make it new and fresh; I'm hoping it doesn't mean she'll include dirty and unkempt hubby sitting at the counter. She's been looking a bit rough around the edges herself and I apologize if it's due to a health issue. If it's just laziness, ewwww.

What an odd show today. Can someone remind me why Ryan has never been behind the scenes with Kelllmeee at the Oscars? Was it because he was with American Idol? They seemed to continue making the point that this was Ryan's first time backstage with Kellmeeee greeting the stars. Which, btw, all the 'stars' seemed to be engaging with Ryan rather than Kelllmeee. Also thought it was ridiculous that Mark was there huckstering himself as the new co-host of Live!!!! I know he always accompanies his lovely wife to these events but now I'm sure he's on the tab of ABC for his room, his clothing and everything else that goes along with being Mr. Ripa. As far as the fashion goes, I thought Kellmeee looked beautiful last night even though her gown was see-through and lots of folks criticized her for her choice. I thought she looked great; however, today's outfit and hair and make-up made her look like a drag-queen (my apologies to drag queens.) She couldn't move her neck, it looked like she had a neck brace on and her make-up made her look years older than her 52.....I guess maybe last night all her pics did have a filter, lol. Also her arms look like she could be one of the wrestlers on Quino's team, yikes! Way too muscular for the outfit she wore today, imo.

The difference is like day and night. When I watch her now, which is very rarely, I can't even believe it's her, she is so different, not only her appearance but the way she acts. There are times, especially as she is signing off, that she seems absolutely miserable and has such disdain for her in-house audience as well as those watching. She's just so odd now, imo, and her husband too; who, btw, she loves to ridicule and put down as much as she can.

What happened to Jenna Ortega? Wasn't she supposed to be on today's show? Was there any announcement that she wouldn't be appearing and instead Katie Holmes?

I would tend to agree with this statement. I think from a very young age, Ryan had aspirations of greatness. His role models and mentors were Merv Griffin and Dick Clark who were involved in so many things in the industry seen and unseen. I think he's set goals for himself and it's not so much about the money but accomplishments. The LA setting is something that I think would intrigue him and also the fact that he would have a partner that could conceivably string some nouns, verbs and adjectives together to form a cohesive sentence unlike Kelllmeee, who still struggles with speaking even after all these years. Who knows what he'll do but I'm kind of hoping he does take it to see what kind of temper tantrum Kelllmeee will throw this time and if her new co-host, MARK CONSUELOS!!!! follows her lead.

Anyone else see the articles saying ABC execs are eyeing Ryan to take over Robach's and Holmes' vacant spot on GMA3? Surely that can't be true! Our girl Kelllmeeee would go into a tailspin!!!

And won't that be refreshing! This current version of Live! has turned into a reading of the most inane news clippings and discussion of same ad nauseum. This trend began when Kellllmeee came on board because she was incapable of carrying on a conversation with Regis so Gelman changed the whole format and placed printed sheets of clippings all over the host desk. It will be interesting to see if Kelllmeeee and her 'immortal beloved' discuss topics other than "Kelly, what's the best day of the week to replace your lightbulbs? Well, this article says most people......blah, blah, blah" Happy for Ryan; Kelllmeee and Live! needed him certainly more than he needed them. He's managed to bank a tidy sum for his tenure at Live! but at what cost? It had to be draining to sit there and listen to her drone on trying to spit out a few cohesive thoughts. Run Ryan, run! lol
