  1. Count me in with those that can't tell Leslie and Faith apart. Leslie is the one who claims she dated Prince, correct? Sure, Jan. Me too. And was Faith the one who rode in on the motorcycle? I like Ellen. I'm rooting for her. I think it's absolutely ridiculous that she's falling in love with a man she's probably had one extended conversation with but that's what we're dealing with here! Is she the one who had the best friend who passed away from cancer? Whoever called Theresa "busted up Melissa Gilbert" I bow down to you!! Ha, ha!! I'm just not picking up that Theresa is malicious. I think she's a simpering fool who talks too much. She's the type who you'll know her entire life story and she'll never ask you a single question about yourself. Which I find the highest level of rudeness and I just don't understand how people can be that way.
  2. Was I only half watching or something or was the Jade Jenks episode lacking some really basic information on who this woman was? So we know she was pretty, could haul rocks during the day and go clubbing at night and was some kind of half rent "interior designer". The only friend to appear on camera was a next door neighbor like eight years her junior. No more to the story??? Did they ever show her Mom or say where she was? When did she divorce the Step Dad? Or was she dead? I'd guess Jade manipulated her way through life with a pretty face. She was obviously lacking in the brains department. She could have killed the Step Dad in his bed and "found him" later. I imagine with very little suspicion based upon the recent hospital release and general ill health. Heck, she probably could have even done the same with her insane story of putting him in the back seat of the truck! But instead she leaves him in the driveway under a pile of garbage? Ok smarty pants.
  3. Good early detective work! She finally popped back up on Instagram and revealed a pic of him (confirmed widower) with his three children (faces blocked: older boy and two little twin girls). I believe they're getting married in November. I wish Tinsley the best. I hope she can be a wonderful Mother to these children and have the family she's always wanted. It doesn't appear they're letting much out about who the man is but now that his face has been shown, I'm sure it won't take long!
  4. I mean, sometimes you've just gotta love Patricia. "She's all about Jesus and goodness and then she's sending nude pictures and sleeping with other people's boyfriends.......sweet". Does this not sum Taylor up in a nutshell??? I've given the side eye to her demure, meek, soft spoken, bible thumping, Jesus loving smoke screen image since the day she hooked up with Shep because come on, if she was truly even one of those things she wouldn't have touched that STD laden player with a 10 foot pole. I love how aggressively awful Austen was to Olivia. Yes Austen, that's how you treat someone who's been hurt by your actions and who you claim you want to be friends with. Just continue being mean to them and berating them. What a terrible excuse for a human. What's even worse is he's got a line of ladies behind him farther than the eye can see just hoping to be his next victim.
  5. Exactly! When I think of a fashionista that I would admire, I think of a creative person, someone with style and a certain look. Sai can't carry clothes. Honestly, I can go to my local Target and see ten women who are more interesting looking than this run of the mill chick. It goes beyond clothes; I mean hair and make-up too. The whole package. She's about as basic and uninspiring as you can get. Plus her personality is stank and she doesn't seem that smart. I was one of the few who started out excited about the new cast. I gave them a real chance. Good Lord, what a terrible bunch of women. I'm over it. They don't like each other. They talk to one another only to run and tell another person and then run and tell another person about that conversation. There's not loyalty, there's no friendship. I honestly hate every one of them. My ambivalence about Jenna isn't enough to save this train wreck.
  6. I'm am so confused by Brynn and it's because I'm trying to put together all of these little crumbs she drops. Don't we all know that person who claims to have been pre-med, studied marine biology, was going to be a child psych, etc. etc.? Whatever may sound cool, exciting and automatically guarantees the assumption that the person sharing is intelligent. I've known a person who was claiming they were going to be a doctor well into their 30's and who never got beyond a smattering of community college classes. What are you going to say to such a person? "You're lying"? Nope. It just has to be accepted as fact. Not saying Brynn is lying but she's definitely taking advantage of dropping this as a non-argument that you accept of proof of her intelligence and move on. Same with these "interesting" hobbies. It's cool if she's exploring new things out of genuine interest. I have to assume there's at least a partial motivation there to present these little cutesy curiosities about herself to add to her flirting repertoire. "I'm just a lil' silly baby girl but I play chess and collect rare books"! I'm giving a side eye at her long term interest and dedication to either of those endeavors. Lastly, can we get the straight story on her childhood? Was Grannie her savior or her failure? "She did the best she could do". But it sounds like that wasn't nearly good enough in any way shape or form? According to Brynn, she was taken from her home at 3 months? 6 months? And placed with her Grandma but spent the next 3 years living in fear she would be taken away? I don't know many children under one year of age who would remember their original living situation and fear returning to it? She tried to permanently "put herself to sleep" in first grade? She has "no family" but appears to have a lovely relationship with her brother and again, a Grandma who raised her from toddlerhood? A very puzzling story indeed. Brynn has no loyalty. Girl acts like your best friend until you leave the room then she'll saddle up to whatever witches coven has assembled and join in plotting your downfall with glee.
  7. I'm late to the party and am still catching up on all the episodes but question: Jessel stated that she was "the" PR person for Michael Kors. I certainly don't know how PR works but is she claiming she was the absolute top leader in this role for the company? Or would she have been one of many, many PR people? I'm assuming she was one of many but she certainly dropped it as though she wanted it believed that she was running the show. I've known women in relationships like Jessel. I think she and Pavit were friends and he likely was kind of a dork and thought she was the bees knees and was in love with her. She ran out of options, wanted to get married, and so she did the big settle. Now she's irritated and bothered by him all the time. And his eyes may be open at this point to what he's saddled with. Her kids are screaming brats. Which is likely through no fault of their own.
  8. I absolutely loved this. I lived it growing up but it was interesting to revisit it and learn so much more about the time. I liked how they focused individually on each lady. Cindy was always my least favorite. She's now a combination of dull (which I always thought she was) and arrogant. Funny how they focused so much on the end about Kaia and not on Presley. What a winner with his face tattoos. Everyone loves Christy best and thinks she's the most beautiful. I'm in that camp. What a warm and wonderful person. I understand her volatile side, but I gained a bit of a new perspective on Naomi and how hard she had to fight and stand up for herself. It was very touching when they said that early on Christy and Linda wouldn't walk in shows unless they booked Naomi too. Linda still remains a bit of a mystery. I can't quite figure her out. But out of all of the ladies, she's the one who I think lived, breathed and embodied "fashion" the most. It is her entire being. She's the most legendary. Christy is the most beautiful but Linda is the queen. It was amazing to me how these ordinary teenaged girls were just put on planes alone and sent overseas to start their careers. How scary and dangerous! Christy alluded to staying in the townhome of the one scout who had all the horrible accusations against him but it didn't sound like anything happened to her. They were all so completely vulnerable. I loved the deep friendship that is still so evident between Naomi and Christy. That little polaroid picture from their first shoot. I've been reading online that there's been a falling out between Naomi and Linda but no one really seems to know the reason why. These women were so much more than clothes hangars. They were such an integral part of the artistic process that went on with the designers. Their relationships and the whole creative environment was really cool to see. The downfall/end of the supermodel was interesting. I know Kate Moss and the waif's coming on the scene changed everything. But I also thought magazines really got away from using models, and advertising completely changed to using actresses and famous women instead. I didn't remember the faceless masses of the eastern European models and that the designers were tired of the attention that the supermodels were getting (instead of them/the clothes). Overall, just an excellent program.
  9. No, sorry for any confusion. Shep does not care at all about Taylor, just like Austen and Olivia never dated.
  10. I think we need to clarify a few things before this season unfolds (because it's clear the direction this is all going) to show how absolutely stupid this whole storyline is going to be: #1 - Shep could give a rat's ass about Taylor - what she's up to, who she's sleeping with, etc. etc. #2 - Austen and Olivia NEVER dated. Proceed.
  11. I watched a super old rerun last night about Frank and Nancy Howard; where Frank put a hit on his wife using what was described as the "Hee Haw Gang" down in Texas. Nancy was shot in the face, lost her eye, but survived. OMG - I don't think Dateline has ever inspired such hate in me as it did for the two daughters. The younger just seemed like kind of an idiot but the older one? First, before you even knew the ending, she was so over-the-top, difficult to tolerate, I thought, this is the type of person who is so annoying in real life, you see them enter a room and you look for the nearest exit. Such a dramatic, theatrical way of speaking, always gesturing with her hands. I wanted to tell her to turn it down about five hundred notches and get a hold of herself. But the fact that they turned their backs on their victim Mother to side with and support their guilty as all hell Father? There was simply no explanation in the world!!! Disgusting human beings!! And Nancy, God bless her, seemed like such a wonderful and kind woman. Completely dedicated to her family and just kind of......dumbfounded by the entire unfolding of the multiple layers of this tragedy? And all that this man had done to her? It was so heartbreaking. Maybe someone else caught the rerun and would like to join in and vent. I just had to get it off my chest!
  12. And can we take a minute and really focus on this??? Austen comes from a well-to-do family, but he's not T-Rav, Whitney or Shep wealthy. He has no real career (please, let's laugh at Trop-Hop), doesn't seem particularly intelligent or super educated, we haven't been shown any talents, isn't a gifted athlete, doesn't have any hobbies/special interests, isn't a super nice person, average looking, not a great dresser.....what else??? Basically, I'm trying to uncover one area that you could give the dude credit for standing out and where ladies may be drawn to him or he may have something above and beyond to offer. I think the most anyone has ever come up with is that he is....TALL??!! Well, and for right now, he's on T.V. At some point, he's going to have to do better.
  13. When Taylor was quiet and soft spoken and in the background, it was so easy to think the best of her. Now that she's opened her mouth and moved into the forefront....yuck. Messy, messy. Although, I did always wonder what a sweet, innocent, Jesusy girl was doing with Shep. Obviously, all of those things are just some kind of smoke screen she throws up. When SC started, Shep really did have some kind of twinkle about him. People liked him. He had charisma. He's just like some stale old toast floating around now. His twinkle is long gone. If Bravo wasn't in the picture, Paige wouldn't be either. Sorry Craig. I haven't heard any rumors of her cheating on him though. What was that bomb Taylor tried to drop? Olivia and Austen were never a thing!! Why are we still beating that dead horse?! Madison would invite Austen to her wedding party? Sure, Jan. At least Venita and Leva were limited in their appearances. Let's keep it that way moving forward.
  14. Did anyone watch the trailer for the new season? There were faces I didn't recognize but apparently some are carryover people from Below Deck? Paige and Ciarra aren't going to be on. Danielle is. Kory is and it looks like he starts dicking around with a few of the ladies, claims that he and Samantha aren't exclusive, and then she shows up and starts laying the smackdown. Amanda and Kyle take a pregnancy test. Yawn. It just looks really, really boring. It appears he's a regular. He likes a castmate named Katie (who I don't recognize but I'm not a Below Deck watcher so she may be from there) and he can't seem to get around that being his ex-wife's name.
  15. I watched because I don't think I had ever heard Buster speak and I was curious about him. And yet, I still didn't get much of a feel for him as a person. There were a few times speaking when he showed a bit of emotion, like when he described showing up at Moselle right after the murders and his Dad giving him a hug. But it was very controlled. I don't know, he definitely gives off that uppercrust, privileged air. This was a bit surprising. Although he maintains his Dad's innocence in the murders, he does admit to all of his other wrongdoing. Nope. I feel like this is an example showing that Buster's just like the rest of the family. Even if you find Fox repugnant, I would recommend watching this. I felt like there was a lot that I hadn't seen in any of the other documentaries. It was well done.
  16. I don't mind Stassi. I follow her on Instagram. Hartford is an odd name but after awhile you don't really notice it and it just becomes.....a name. Messer is derived from a word with a negative and gross connotation: Mess. Messer made a mess in his diaper. Messer is messy. Stassi said it's an old renaissance greeting like "sir" or "signor". Whatever. Name him that then. Stupid, stupid thing to do to a child. Beau is always cheesing it up in the background, looking all unwashed and unkempt and I think to myself, really Stassi? This is your dream man? You're sticking to him for life? Interesting to see how that relationship will play out.
  17. Me too. And I especially don't trust these two any further than I could throw them so stay tuned. It sounds cold to say but I suspect any hurt feelings on Lindsay's part have more to do with being humiliated and the loss of the end goal then losing the man. The man is simply the means to an end for her: marriage and babies. It doesn't really matter who gets her there. Carl made for a nice story, that was just a bonus. I'm not too worried for her, she'll be onto the next fool who's willing to fill the shoes before you know it.
  18. I've been sick and out of boredom I went and rewatched season one. What an absolute trainwreck of modern t.v. Knowing what we know now of Kathryn and Thomas, it truly is painful to watch. Him spoonfeeding her constant lines of "you're such an old soul....you're so much wiser than me.....you carry yourself with such poise", while she just sits there nodding in complete agreement. She truly, truly believed he was going to marry her and she was going to be the lady of the manor. Her family co-signing the bizarre relationship was equally as gross. What his motivation was (beyond an heir) will forever puzzle me? What did he really expect to happen? What I had really forgotten about was how prominently featured Danni was that season. And how absolutely lovely she was! She and Shep were genuinely so close! And how she shut Thomas down! She was the true catch of the town. And it makes me sad how through subsequent seasons she just became at times so painfully thin, seemingly so less sure of herself, and delegated only to being Kathryn's constant strange defender. She always seemed too good for this bunch. I hope she's doing well today. Cameron was off the rails. No polish at all and my goodness, I never would have suspected she's has work done (she was always fresh faced pretty) but girlfriend really looks nothing like she did back then. Leva was always featured as her friend. Funny to see her be able to sit there and be a side player and keep her mouth shut. Ugh. Whitney and Jenna and her glove. It's just too much to unpack! Sorry for the trip down memory lane - I just had to!
  19. This was what I was scratching my head over the whole episode. I don't care how often a kid comes home to visit from college, that's perfectly fine. And I understand many young people return home for a brief period after college to search for a job or save money. But the Mom seemed completely focused/convinced that they would all return home full-time to live after college and the family would be reunited to continue as it had before. Did she not want them to go out on their own into the world? It seemed kind of an odd expectation. I do have to say I judged the daughter initially and fully expected her to educate us old folks on everything we didn't know that she did. And she didn't turn out to be that way at all. They were super pleasant. I really liked the home they chose. It had great light and there was just something warm/homey about the house that came across even through the t.v.
  20. Amen. Let's up the stakes and add gray floors and a sliding barn door. My two personal favs. 🤢 I'm late to the party but I have to go back to the Dallas episode. That wife is in for a world of hurt, I'm afraid. Baby obsession is annoying enough but this gal has scripted a film of the rest of her life in her head. It's part of life that things don't go as planned. What would a person like this do? What is going to happen when she doesn't instantly get pregnant, or can't conceive at all? What if she has a girl when she really wants a boy first and then that girl is anti-social, doesn't play well with the imaginary neighborhood children, and likes dirt bikes versus TX cheerleading? What happens when the perfect husband cheats and walks out on her in ten years? Her delusion was next level. Bad enough, he seemed to buy into it too. Good luck to her neighbors. I hope they understand their roles.
  21. I just watched "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" !! I completely agree and I kept thinking that the entire time I was watching. Lara Jean was adorable but also just a really great person. So much easier to root for than Belly.
  22. In my lifetime of watching House Hunters, I've never had a featured house be one I actually knew! The St. Louis episode, oh my, I had such a hard time watching it. So many bold face untruths about the location of the homes. Why the need to lie? Unnecessary drama that didn't even matter? Chesterfield and Ballwin both are in West County (suburbs of St. Louis). There is barely a way to distinguish the two. You can be in Ballwin one second, cross an imaginary line and be in Chesterfield. There is absolutely no "commute time" to get from one to another. They bleed into each other. So the whining and complaining from Mom and Sister (and the homebuyer) that she was so tragically far away is just a total lie. Why not just say that they'd prefer she be a few blocks away and stay in Ballwin? It was just so stupid. Second, the homebuyer tried to present Chesterfield as the hipper place for a young, single woman to live! Are you kidding? Neither Chesterfield or Ballwin fit that bill. Go to Clayton or the Central West End for that. West County is a bunch of families, middle aged couples and retirees. It is the textbook definition of suburbia (which made me choke when she said at the end she wasn't ready for that. And yet that's exactly where she was). Certainly not saying that single people don't live here - plenty to do and you can seek out alternatives closer to downtown. But Chesterfield hedges out Ballwin by being the older, wealthier and stodgier of the two locations, if you really get down to it. The real reason for her preference for Chesterfield is probably trying to find a sugar Daddy. I pass the third, single family home on my way to and from work every day. My house is about 4 blocks away. It's a wonderful, safe neighborhood, only about 20 minutes to get downtown. The house they looked at is really pretty. The street kind of stinks because everyone uses it as a cut through and neighbors constantly park on the street. I remember when they had the open house and it was "under contract" the next day. Pretty typical for around here. Anyway, I thought all three women were shrews. Seemed pretty nasty and generally not a whole lot of fun. Feel bad for the Dad.
  23. Am I the only one who found Susannah kind of weird on so many levels, period??? By the end I couldn't suspend reality anymore. You have these two insanely good looking brothers and THIS is who they are fighting over and sacrificing their own relationship for? It really was almost laughable. Plus, she was raised like their sister. She's now going to have slept with both of them? i don't know, the whole thing is a bit too gross for me. Boys, go away to college, have some fun and take your pick from the gals (or guys, Jer)!!!
  24. That house was way more of a "theme" than trying to be authentic. It's like when teens now dress up in 80's costumes and it's absolutely nothing anyone actually wore at the time. This house was a costume. I agree that the living room was horribly overcrowded and cluttered but I did like the sectional. I skip over when Scott and Debra go on activities so I fast forwarded through the vinegar tasting because I could care less. But.....gross! The pizza oven also seems like a questionable choice unless you were to provide each guest with a pizza making kit. I thought it was nice that they kept the blue and green fixtures in the bathroom but the faucets they changed out to were all matte black and kind of clunky. I didn't really care for how they looked against the pastels but at the same time, I'm not sure what would be more suitable? Switching gears: it seems like it's always presented that a bunkie is a place for the kids to stay. Would anyone really let a group of kids stay in a separate building away from the house? It seems it would be much more suitable for overflow adult guests to have a private space. But this never seems to be the option given for it's focused purpose.
  25. I saw on Instagram that supposedly Shep has a new girlfriend. I think she's 23 and was or is Miss Bahamas. He'll keep getting older and the girls will keep getting younger. And the young girls will all want to get married and he won't. Wash, rinse, repeat.
