Wynonna has vertigo, and has talked about it around her performances.

I agree with you about Ellen Pompeo’s face. And something weird is going on with her mouth and the way she speaks. I never found her attractive, and her acting is mediocre, so therefore, just never got her as being “it”.

Yes, she overused the phrase, "this says designer to me".

I was really bugged that the female EMT that drove one of the med units rarely wore her seat belt.

She was a judge on a Netflix series about soul food, and her critiques were more harsh than the others as well. Also, there were times she was a bit mean on that show, too, so it seems it's a pattern for her.

I think it’s a missed opportunity by the TC marketing team to not have given us some deeper background on the competing chefs. It’s a little different with the American chefs because we see them compete on their shows. But I have never seen a Top Chef Brazil, or Top Chef Canada, etc. I would have loved an opportunity to get to know them a little better.

I follow Alex on IG and she is one walking designer purchaser. Who, honestly, touts an LV bag in a pic out on the slopes? All the Lululemon and Stanley cups. It's not surprising...easy to see none of the kids ever hurt for anything. Kudos to them, but it is a bit tone deaf these days.

I saw that Alex posted several stories on her IG about how cool it was that people leave snacks/drinks for their delivery people, and then...VOILA...she does the same. It wasn't an original idea by her for sure.

This might come across as nit-picking and tacky, but here goes. Does anyone follow her daughter, Alex, on IG? She has a cute thing going on, but often posts things she buys and does affiliate links. But all of her items are so expensive - the designer stuff. And her and Mauricio live quite the life of luxury (and not saying they don't work for it)...she sure comes from a place of privilege that plays out on her own social media.

I saw today that she’s filed for divorce with her 2nd husband. I know many have been speculating, so now it’s out there.

Shawn Hatosy tweeted that Season 6 is already in the can.

“Paigey” is annoying af.

100% agree. As someone who just broke both wrists (surgery required on both) roller skating with my grands…I was so nervous watching them.

I had also read somewhere (sorry, can’t source it right now) that the actress was also sitting out due to pay/contract issues. I would say this hasn’t necessarily bode well for her character, as she’s not really missed and the show has gone on without her. Agree about Theo and his annoyance. However, that’s quite an unfair accusation about only children and parents of only children.

In the for what it’s worth category, I know him! He is a very close friend of my boss, so I see and talk to him a lot. He is such a super nice guy.

I wonder if TPTB are ever going to address the harassment issues with Gabe Erales? He was fired as Executive Chef of Comedor in Austin in December 2020. I know the show wrapped in October, but dang.

I don’t disagree with you. All I was saying is that relative to this show, it could be a factor.

I think we're never going to get away from Owen-centric as long as his brother and son are involved in the writing and directing of the show.

Joe Sasto is doing a Zoom cooking class for our company later this month. I wasn’t a huge fan of his during his season. He’s going to do homemade pasta, which I also find kinda boring, but I’m still looking forward to it. Not sure if this was his call or the woman who drives the “culture committee”.

The Brandon actor was fired for misconduct with Jerrika his costar and a show runner. Allegedly, he had multiple HR cases.

I just listened to “Behind the Billions”, the weekly recap podcast by the co-creators, Brian Koppelman and David Levine. They clearly don’t read these boards because they’re such a contrast with how this season is being perceived. Also, seems like they want more Shark Tank people on the show and had been courting Damon for some time as a guest. They also did an interview with Maggie Siff (Wendy), and they were all foaming at the mouth saying this is the first episode whereby her character had really evolved. I appreciate all the realism in the comments on this board. This season has not been that great to me.

Anybody but Kevin for the win. California - land of fruit & nuts, really?

This is 100% a great post. There is a time to grieve and a time to analyze his legacy. One of the things that strikes me about Kobe was his ability to learn from what he did wrong and try to do better. He knew he could never erase the pain and wrong-ness of his behavior, but he did more than say he was sorry and do nothing. He turned it into activisim, put his words into action, and there are not a lot of people that are able to do that these days with things that have happened. He was no saint. Nobody is. But the conversations about his death, grief, his daughters can appropriately be done now and the other side will certainly be discussed and not sugar-coated in the days ahead.

Also, I loathe the way Sherry chews and eats. She sort of chomps and keeps her mouth open. Blech. She definitely is not jiving like mentioned above.

Call me crazy, but I miss Decorating Cents.
