Am I the only one on this board that want to see April and Jackson make their relationship and family work. I like them and I liked their story line as a couple.

I thought it was a good ending for Riggs and Megan. Owen and Mer would be to ickk because he and Christina still love each other. I could however see Alex and Mer together if they built the tension up slowly kind of like they did with Owen and Christina with her reading Ellis's diary and her and Owen progressing along those lines. With a touch or a glance here or there. There was none of that with Owen and Amelia or with Riggs and Mer. I also desperately want to see Avery and April get there happily ever after. I think Andrew and Jo would be a good pair.

I want Jackson and April back together. I hate that nobody stays together anymore. I love that April is a Christian but is also very human. So far I am pretty happy with this season.

Just a quick question. I have had a lot of tragic things going on over the past couple of years so haven't been keeping up. I keep seeing posts about Bethenny bad mouthing Jason publicly. Could someone please point me to the interviews, articles or quotes where she has done this. I am a huge RH fan and also followed her spin off with Jason. I always felt that they both could use some work with a good therapist. From what I saw she likes to be in control and is very anxious if she feels she's not. She also seems to be a workaholic, and does not have a healthy background from which to draw. He seems manipulative and demeaning towards her. He also seems to be ( understandably, to an extent) an unyielding mama and papa's boy. Like most parents they both could benefit, and especially Bryn would benefit from good parenting classes.

I thought this was a solid episode. I don't understand why Amelia gets so much hate. Personally I think she does a good job with what she is given. I didn't really feel any sympathy for Maggie I mean she is a grown arse woman and she and Riggs never even went out did they? Meredith was more likeable in the last episode and even more so in this one than she has been of late. A bit off topic but I wasn't really getting the whole Mer/Alex thing until I recently re-watched the episode where Mer was attacked by a patient and couldn't hear. Alex crying at her pain and the scene of her crying and him crawling in bed with her to comfort her, I was sold. If they are going to go in that direction they better start building on it a bit. As for the previews of next week, couldn't the Dr. take the parents to court for denying their child life saving surgery? What it appears Alex does and the elevator surgery that Ben did that pizzed Baily of so bad was no worse than Baily injecting a kid with de-activated HIV. JMO Ok think I am done spouting of unless I think of more later.

Personally I loved that she kicked the shnit out of him with her bare hands instead of shooting him. I just wish she would have done more damage to him. I also think it would be nice to see some follow up in the future with Kono maybe doing some volunteer work at that haven. Danny would have been good in this one having a daughter of his own and how he tends to react with that sort of thing. JMO

I have been such a fan of scandal. It was always one of my go to shows. What worries me is it kind of looks like Shonda is tanking her own show on purpose. Don't any of TPTB read these boards? Don't any of them have a creative thought like ever? It was such a good show and it still could be with just tiny bit of effort. My son passed away 7 months ago and the only thing that takes me out of that is my tv shows. I really don't want to lose another one Damn it! Somebody do something PLEASE. Oy yea I can't stand Olivia anymore she isn't even remotely likeable or human. I liked it when OPA was like a family. Good scandal of the week and some personal stories explored was a good formula can't we please just have that back.

I have watched since season 1. LVP and Kyle were my favorites and still are. I was a bit disappointed with Kyle in season 2 but she seems to have seen herself and self corrected. I think they are great together and I love how down to earth Kyle is. LVP is beautiful but it wouldn't hurt for her to consult a fashion consultant. I agree with several other posters that she looks her best in minimal make up and relaxed clothing. Then again I think most women benefit from a less is more sense of make up and fashion. I loved Rinna before RHoBH now I can't stand her. I liked Eileen her first season not at all now. Could take or leave EG. Not fond of either of the new ladies. Of course we need some drama to keep our interest but I could sure go for more house porn and life styles of the rich and famous of each of the cast. JMO

I thought, after the season 5 finale, that Liv had once again played right into Papa Pope's hands by making Jake Mellie's VP pick. I still kind of think that. Which would be why I think Papa Pope had Vargas killed. .Because I think Pope thought Fitz would name Mellie then he would just have her to destroy to make his boy Jake President. Or maybe he hoped Fitz would name Olivia so his actual daughter could finally really have the oval. Anyway what do I know I am just a fan, though last season nearly did me in with all of Liv's evilness. I would have loved to see Fitz name Susan Ross president. How novel would that be an actual decent person as president? Anyway still watching.

I don't think Kyle should have been the one to go. Burke should have IMO. I also don't think Kyle's previous concepts should have been a factor at all in this decision especially since her last concept wasn't even followed. I too watch housewives and I enjoy the kind of ordinariness of Kyle. It is true she is not confrontational but she could have got shots with a couple other guys and just chose one of them. The concept was a bit vanilla and definitely estrogen heavy. I thought the shot with her and Lisa would have been better if it were her (a small housewife) vs. a huge biker guy. A family shot, a beauty queen and then a shot of a business man would have been more everybody to me. Even though I love Kyle I do think the guys deserved the win. For me anyway Arnold is also vanilla. Not sure this show will last for another season. I like Matt, Boy George, Carson and Laila so far but I was watching for Kyle.

I am so torked! Why couldn't they just let David be a decent man with integrity? No of course he has to go and be hot for the witch. I had naively hoped maybe they were going to put the only two truly good characters we've been shown together. Heck no guess the VP isn't sexy and evil enough. Dog gone it now I don't like David either and I did until tonight. I have been cooling towards Liv but tonight I think ice ran through my veins toward her. The show is all twisty and curvy which is usually is a good thing but tonight I found myself mad. Oh well will have to see what next week brings.

I don't post much because I am pretty much in the minority but I have been reading since twop. I rather liked this and last episode. I liked Liv realizing she is tired of feeling ashamed and hiding. I like Jake because he does not seem to be all about sex with Liv where as I feel like that is all that Fitz wants her for. I love Abby but I must admit I don't get why she would team up with Lizzybear. I also like Huck and Quinn but I do wish they could be at least a bit rehabilitated. I Adore the VP and love that she confronted the Pres head on. I love that she is not a political machine but rather a straight shooter really looking out for the people I hope they keep her that way. I don't miss b613 like at all. I happen to feel like b613 is too close to reality. I loved Abby and Rosen together and hope they end up back together. Since Liv answered yes at the end I hope she decides to stand in the light of the truth come what may. I think she changed her mind because Fitz for once was loving her enough to know this could all be tough on her and not wanting her to have to go through it. I think that was the kind of selfless love that she has been looking for. All unpopular opinions but there you have. That is it for now.

I liked the original Huck and Quinn but their off the rails versions not so much. I too am bored with B613. Here's hoping for a good finale and redemption next season.

I was just rewatching some episodes and came across something I found interesting. In season 3 x3 Mrs. Smith Goes to Washington when Olivia survives the bomb scare Fitz finds Mellie drunk on hooch and thinks she is sad Liv survived. Instead she says she is celebrating because if Liv had died she (Mellie) would have lost but since Liv lives Liv is still Fitz's achilles heal which makes her mellie's weapon. She says if need be Liv is the tool that she can use to make her puppet Fitz dance. Could they still be planning to make Mellie the brains behind this whole kidnapping to go to war arc? Just a thought.
