What I Watched Today

(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)

General Hospital

Curtis sees Portia at the hospital. He says he’s picking TJ up from work, so he and Jordan can get a minute of quality time with him. Portia says her parents used the same trick on her when she was in med school, and tells Curtis, it’s going to be a while before TJ is finished. He says he’ll wait, and she asks if he’d like some company. She could use a break, and her ears are still ringing from the loud music at the homecoming dance. He says, according to his recollections, she couldn’t listen to music loud enough back in the day. She says they won’t be telling Trina that, and he asks how Trina is. It couldn’t have been easy on her. The last time she went to a dance… Portia says, her father was killed.

Jordan sees Cyrus by the elevator in the parking garage. He says he’s been waiting for her.

Maxie tells Peter, it’s the best day. They’re engaged. She’s not even upset that his sister was a witness. He says Anna wants to talk to him; it sounds like something important. She asks if he wants to go over there now, but he says they’re supposed to give Mac and Felicia the good news. She suggests he go see Anna, and she’ll wait for him at The Floating Rib. She’ll stall as long as she can. He says he loves her, and can’t wait to marry her. She says she can’t wait either, and hopes Anna doesn’t have bad news. He’s sure it isn’t, but nothing is going to bring him down today.

Anna flashes back to Finn saying she should tell Peter the truth; that she doesn’t know if she or Alex is his mother. Her phone dings, and it’s a text from Peter, saying he’s on his way.

Chase goes to Finn’s office, and asks if he has plans this weekend. Finn says, it’s too early for best man plans, but Chase says he wants to have a family dinner; him, Chase, Anna… his mother…

At The Floating Rib, Jackie sits at the bar with Mac, telling him old tales about Robert. Robert comes in and says he sees Jackie has met his baby brother. She says, the fairer Scorpio by a mile. She had lunch there with Chase, and tells Mac that he really has a special place. Mac says, drinks are on the house, and Robert says Mac wouldn’t know flattery if it smacked him in the head. Mac says, maybe not, but he has more sense. How could Robert let Jackie get away? Jackie says, good question.

Miss Madigan tells Lucy that she certainly had a unique pitch. Perhaps they could revisit putting Deception in their stores at a later time. Valentin says they only buy products every six months, and Sasha asks if there’s anything they can do to change her mind. Lucy says, this is silly. Why don’t they have the actual voice of Deception give a performance? The artist is there, live and in person. Valentin says he thinks it would be an excellent idea. Behind the scenes, Amy looks panicked. Lucy tells Madigan not to let a silly flashdrive mistake stop her from hearing a song they think will be number one. Madigan says she doesn’t think a song is going to change things, and Valentin suggests rescheduling, but Lucy says, Madigan is there now. She knows Madigan will love the song. Everyone who hears it, adores it. And she knows Brook would be thrilled to sing it for her. Brook smiles.

Curtis says, it would be a shame if Taggert’s death got in the way of Trina enjoying all the things a young person should enjoy; dances and friends. Portia says there were some bumpy moments, but ultimately, she thinks Trina had a good time. It’s sweet of him to keep asking about Trina, since Trina has been less than understanding. He says he’s a grown man. He can take what she throws at him. She says, but Trina’s anger is misdirected. She’s tried to get Trina to understand, and hopes one day she sees that Curtis is the reason she made it through that night. He saved her daughter’s life and she can never repay him.

Cyrus says Jordan got his text, and she says, she’s there, isn’t she? He asks if she has what he asked for.

Finn tells Chase, the best man title can be revoked at any time, and Chase says his brother and mother haven’t been in the same zip code as him since he was a kid. He thought it would be nice. Finn says, for him, and Chase says, yes, for him, and for the whole family. Wouldn’t it be easier if Finn made nice with his parents before the wedding? Finn knows Chase means well, but his relationship with his dad and Jackie doesn’t have to be the same as Chase’s, and it isn’t Chase’s responsibility to be mending fences. Chase says, the best man has to have a more important job than just not losing the rings, and Finn says. if the wedding even happens.

Anna thanks Peter for coming. He says before she gets into what she has to tell him, he has something important to tell her first. He and Maxie are getting married.

Robert says, what Mac doesn’t understand is that he possesses a certain je ne sais quoi. He can’t help it if he possesses magnetism to women of a certain order. Jackie laughs, and Mac asks how Robert explains Felicia never falling at his feet. Maxie comes in, and Robert starts to introduce them, but Maxie says, Jackie Templeton, the journalist. Robert says Jackie’s head is big enough already, and Maxie says Lulu mentioned she was going to try and get Jackie there. She introduces herself, and asks Mac where Felicia is. Mac says she’s delivering meals to the elderly; is something wrong? Maxie says, quite the opposite. Robert says, out with it, and Maxie says she wanted to wait for Peter, but she can’t. She and Peter are getting married. Mac says, that’s great, and hugs her. Robert frowns.

Brook says, as much as she’d love to sing, she doesn’t have the music track. Lucy says it’s on her laptop, but Brook says her voice isn’t warmed up. Lucy asks Madigan to give them a teeny moment, and tells Sasha to give her some pastries and herbal tea. Sasha takes Madigan to the bar, and Lucy says she appreciates what Brook has gone through, and sympathizes, but that woman can put their product in over 250 stores across the country, not to mention they have an amazing website. They might not get the opportunity again for at least six months. Brook is sure there’s another way to get her on board. Valentin is quite the charmer. Valentin says, in the short time he’s known Brook, he recognizes her as a fighter. Don’t let Nelle steal her voice. She wants to sing in front of a live audience again, doesn’t she? Brook says, more than anything in the world, and Lucy says, all right then. It’s settled. Brook will reach deep inside herself and find a way to do it, right? Brook says yeah, some way. Amy watches.

Jordan gives Cyrus the file, and he thanks her for her promptness. She says she can’t imagine he’ll get much use out of it; the case is dead, and most of it is redacted. He says he shouldn’t have any trouble filling in the blanks. Earlier today, she was questioning Brando. Does she have him pegged as the person who sabotaged Jason’s motorcycle? She says she’s asking Brando questions about how the part was sabotaged. It’s standard procedure in an investigation. He says, not any longer. He needs her to kill the investigation.

Chase asks what Finn means, and Finn says, forget it. He was talking nonsense. Chase asks if he and Anna had a fight, but Finn says they’re fine. Chase asks if it has to do with their dad and his mom, but Finn says, for once it has nothing to do with their family. It’s Anna’s. There’s the distinct possibility Anna’s sister could end up in Port Charles. Chase says, Alex has been on the run from international authorities for years. Why would she risk getting caught coming back to Port Charles?

Anna tells Peter, that’s wonderful news, and hugs him. She asks where Maxie is, and he, says she’s already at The Floating Rib. Anna asks him to tell her everything, and they sit in the living room. He says they were at the hospital for their genetic testing appointment. They got some great news, and Maxie asked him to marry her. Anna says, it’s so typical Maxie, and he says he thought same thing. He’s wanted to pop the question for months, but his fear was holding him back, and Maxie did it for him.

Mac says, so Maxie is getting married, and she says he dragged it out of her. He says, sorry for the relentless interrogation. She says he badgered her until she spilled the beans. At least that’s the story they’re going to give Felicia. He says he’s happy for her. They’re already a family; this just makes it official. Jackie says, congratulations, and Robert asks if she’s sure this is what she really wants. Maxie says she should hope so, considering she asked Peter. Mac says he’s going to call Felicia to make sure she gets back as soon as she can. Robert tells Maxie to sit while he and Jackie rustle up some cider. Brando comes over to Maxie, and tells her that he couldn’t help overhearing – congratulations. She says, a new baby, a new career, a new husband. It seems like things are finally starting to go her way. It feels pretty good.

Lucy asks Sasha, what happened? and Sasha says she’s sorry. She had a bad day. Lucy says she’s had her share of bad days, and public disasters, but this isn’t a bad day. Something isn’t right. Sasha is scattered, and she can’t focus. Sasha says she gets it; she messed up. Message received. She stomps off.

Valentin tells Madigan, it shouldn’t be much longer. Brook wants to warm up and do the song justice. Madigan says she respects people who take pride in their work.

Brook says Amy told her she would help, and Amy says she did, but what Brook is asking now… Brook says, is nothing. All they have to do is sync Amy’s mic to the Bluetooth speakers she’s going to use. She’ll be performing, but they’ll hear Amy’s voice. She remembers the lyrics, right? It will be a piece of cake. Brook can’t let them down. They need her, and she needs Amy to be her voice.

Jordan tells Cyrus, there are lines she won’t cross. An investigation into an accident where someone was hurt is one of them. Cyrus says he’s not trying to puncture holes in the wheels of justice, but he suspects she doesn’t really believe Brando had anything to do with Jason’s accident. She’s just dotting her i’s and crossing her t’s. He’s asking her to her to leave some i’s undotted and t’s uncrossed. She flashes back to Curtis saying, Cyrus needs to believe he has them where he wants them, and her saying, that way, he won’t know what hit him when they take him down. Jordan tells Cyrus, okay, but why is he protecting Brando? He says, seeing an innocent man accused of something he didn’t do, hits close to home. They wouldn’t want Brando to suffer the same injustice he did, would they?

Finn tells Chase, if Anna knew what was going on in her sister’s mind, it would make their lives easier, but she  doesn’t. Chase says, Anna is more than capable of taking care of herself, and Finn says, physically. Chase’s phone rings, and he says, that’s strange. It’s Valentin, who says his presence is required at the MetroCourt. Chase asks if there’s a situation in progress, and Valentin says, of a criminal nature, no, but Sasha is his friend, and she could use one right now.

Lucy thanks Madigan for her patience, and says she’s in for a treat. Sasha’s phone dings, and a text from Chase asks if she’s okay. Brook puts the music on, and Amy begins to sing backstage. I’m guessing the title is, We Were Created from the Ruins, since it’s sung like, 1000 times.

Jackie tells Robert, who knew the lead singer of Riff Raff would go on to have a cosmetics mogul as a daughter? He says, Frisco’s grown up quite a bit, and she says, so has he, for the most part. He says he thought they buried the hatchet, and she says, hatchet buried; water under bridge. She’s not talking about the past, but his present. What does he have against that girl’s fiancé?

Peter tells Anna, the scariest thing on earth is to get everything you wanted, because you have everything to lose. She says, it is scary to get what you want, but she thinks it’s more tragic to push it away. Now that he has it, he has to try hard to be worthy of it. He’s says he’s doing everything in his power. It’s been a major revelation. It’s been a lot for him. The pregnancy, the genetic testing… She says, they came back good? and he says, the tests came back clean. He has nothing that could be passed on to the baby. Anna says, it must be a relief, and he says the only thing he had flagged was a marker for rheumatoid arthritis. He assumes he got that from her.

At the hospital, Jordan tells Chase that she’s reassigning some cases on the docket. He’s no longer working the Jason Morgan crash. He asks if he messed up, but she says, no; he’s one of their best detectives, but she’d rather use his talents on more pressing investigations. He asks if eliminating Jason and opening the door to a mob war isn’t serious. There’s no way it was a faulty part; someone tampered with the stabilizer. It was a murder attempt dressed up to look like an accident. She says, there’s no way of proving the stabilizer was tampered with; no way of knowing Jason was targeted. It was an egregious error on the plant’s part. He says, that’s a big coincidence. Brando did a stretch in prison, and is just the kind of guy Cyrus would use to do his dirty work. Portia and Curtis come around the corner, and Jordan says, Brando is no longer a person of interest. He says, since when, and she says they’ll talk about it tomorrow at the station. He says, yes ma’am, and leaves. Jordan says, sorry they had to see that. It’s never pleasant putting your foot down as a boss. Portia says, it isn’t, but neither is letting Taggert’s killer get away with murder, Jordan asks what she means, and Portia says, they both know Cyrus is directly responsible for Trina losing her father. Curtis says, no one is disputing that, and Portia says, she gets they don’t have evidence to tie Cyrus to Taggert’s shooting, and she can rationalize Jordan had information to set that monster free, but she has a new investigation. One that could put Cyrus back in prison where he belongs, but instead, she shut it down. Why? Jordan says, with all due respect, she doesn’t have to explain her investigations to Portia, but just so she knows, there was no direct evidence linking Cyrus to Jason’s accident. Portia says, and there won’t be now that Jordan is shelving the investigation. She never took Jordan for a coward. Jordan says, Portia has no idea what she’s been through this past year. And the hard decisions she’s had to make. She’s not a coward, and certainly doesn’t answer to Portia. Portia says, then why doesn’t she answer to Taggert. What’s it going to take for her to bring his killer to justice, especially when she dragged his name through the mud?

Cyrus knocks on Finn’s office door, and he says he’s been meaning to introduce himself. They have much to discuss.

Peter says, apparently rheumatoid arthritis is supposed to be inherited. Maxie said Nathan didn’t have it, so he assumes he didn’t get it from Faison. She says he didn’t get it from her. She had a full genetic work up when she was diagnosed with PV, and didn’t have it. He says maybe it was Faison, and the gene skipped Nathan. He can handle a little arthritis. He tells Anna, he has a fiancé to get to, and she says give Maxie a hug for her. He says, wait a minute. He came there because she wanted to tell him something, but she says, it can wait. It’s nothing compared to his spectacular news. She tells him to go, and when he leaves, she goes to her laptop.

Jackie tells Robert, that was the most tepid reaction to an engagement she’s ever seen. He couldn’t even muster a congratulations. He says she doesn’t know Maxie’s fiancé. He doesn’t trust Peter August. She says if the story she’s working on turns into anything, she’ll be working with The invader, and he says there’s no way she should be working with Peter. She says she doesn’t remember asking him for career advice. He gave up that right long ago. He says, it’s not the rant of some jealous ex. Peter’s a guy she doesn’t want to mess with. He’s genuinely dangerous.

Amy continues to sing, while Brook mouths the words. Madigan bops her head to the music. Lucy tells Valentin, it looks like something is final going right. Thank you, universe, for allowing Brook to pick up the pieces of a disaster. Sasha jets, and Chase shows up. He sees Amy, and asks what she’s doing. Amy accidently unplugs the Bluetooth connection.

Curtis tells Portia and Jordan, there’s enough pain between the three of them to fill the whole floor. Neither one of them is the enemy. Don’t forget it’s Cyrus. Portia says, he’s right. She hates this. She hates that Cyrus is allowed to walk the halls where Taggert died, but she has to assume Jordan is doing her best to do what’s right. Jordan says, she is. No one wishes Cyrus would vanish from their lives more than she does. She wishes she could make it all go away, but she can’t. She’s the Commissioner, not a ghost. She can’t off Cyrus without anyone seeing. Curtis says, a ghost? What is she talking about?

Finn says he can’t think of anything he and Cyrus have to discuss. He’s never dealt with the Chairman of the Board before, and sees no reason to start now. Cyrus says, that’s not entirely true. He believes Finn dealt with the Chairman of the Board when he was suspended for drug use. Finn says, the dugs keeping him alive. Becoming addicted to something given to ease your pain, can Cyrus believe there are people out there who take advantage of that? Who would make money from it? Cyrus says, it was awful that he was pegged for a drug kingpin, responsible for destroying people’s lives when he was innocent. Finn says if Cyrus is dangling that he might be fired for his past drug use, go for it, but Cyrus says he wasn’t dangling that. Britt would make that decision. Finn says, the Board decided to fire Monica and Bobbie, but Cyrus says Finn is a noted expert and an asset to the hospital. He looks forward to a rewarding, collaborative relationship. Finn says, he has patients, and Cyrus says, of course (🍷).

Peter arrives at The Floating Rib, and Maxie asks, how’s Anna? Is everything okay? He says he blurted out the good news, and Anna told him it could wait. It wasn’t that important. Maxie says, he told Anna. That will make her feel less guilty for blurting it out to Mac. He says he knew it, and she says she tried not to. Was Anna over the moon? He says she was ecstatic. She knows Maxie made him the happiest man alive.

Jackie says she did her due diligence when Lulu reached out. She knows about Peter’s reputation. Robert says she’s not considering working with him. Maybe she’s got an angle? She says, no, she doesn’t. She can’t believe she’s indulging his paranoid streak, and he says he genuinely believes Peter is up to no good. She says she’s not saying he’s wrong, but if she discovers something illicit at the newspaper, the public will know. He asks what she thinks that might be, and she tells him that he’ll read her article along with everyone else. She tells him that she wouldn’t risk losing family over it. Can’t he bring himself to congratulate them? Robert gets up, and goes over to Maxie and Peter’s table. He mumbles that he wanted to congratulate them before it slipped his mind, and stuff like that. Maxie asks if that was for both of them, and Jackie says, of course (🍷) it was. Mac grabs Robert, and asks him to help with something. When they’re out of earshot, Mac asks, what Robert’s problem with Peter is.   

Chase says let him help, but Amy says he doesn’t understand what they’re doing. They can be heard in the other room, and Brook shuts off the music. Madigan says, will someone explain what’s going on? and Lucy says, sometimes you can pick up a private phone call. That has to be what’s going on. Amy runs in, and says she’s sorry, and Madigan says she’s the nurse who sang so beautifully at the telethon. She was the one singing? Brook tells Lucy that she’s sorry, and Madigan says, so the voice of Deception is a fraud? Did Valentin know? He says, absolutely not, but he noticed something was off. Lucy says she told Madigan about the vicious attack on Brook. It must have affected her mentally and emotionally. Madigan asks how Lucy explains her partner flailing during her presentation earlier? It’s clear to her Deception can’t manage a simple presentation, much less an entire company. She’s afraid they won’t be going into business together. Valentin stops Lucy from going after Madigan, and Lucy turns on Brook. She asks, what did Brook do to them? How could she do this? How could she lie? Brook says she didn’t want to let them down, and Lucy says, look what she’s done. The entire future company is in jeopardy. What Sasha did was pretty bad, but Brook… She’s so embarrassed. What they did was unprofessional. No, worse. Brook made them look absolutely pathetic. Brook says she’s sorry, but Lucy doesn’t want to hear it. She never wants to hear anything else from Brook again, and she doesn’t want Brook to be part of the company. She’s fired.

Sasha digs in her purse, but the baggie of coke she comes up with is empty.

At the bar, Brook tells Amy, she doesn’t think Lucy is going to forgive her for this one. Amy says, forgive them, but Brook says, no way is Amy sharing the blame. She’ll make sure. She doesn’t want to jeopardize Amy’s friendship with Lucy. She tells Amy, go before Lucy comes back, and sends some wrath her way. Call if she needs anything. Amy leaves, and Brook tells Chase, Lucy wouldn’t have fired her if the plan had worked. If they’d sealed the deal, she would have been a hero. He says, so the end justifies the means? and she says, sometimes. It’s not meant to be. It seems like nothing in her life goes well for her. In fact, everything has gone straight to hell since she made a deal with the devil. We see Valentin.

Curtis says, no one said anything about offing anyone, and Jordan says, sorry. It’s been a stressful week, so her stress has started spouting off. Taggert was her friend, her partner, and she misses him too. She says she should go, but Curtis says they’re picking up TJ. She says she can’t tonight. Tell TJ she’s sorry. She leaves, and Portia says she didn’t mean to upset Jordan. (Yes she did.) Curtis says Jordan has been under a huge strain. To go and accuse her of  covering up for the man who killed her friend… Portia says it wasn’t intentional, but Jordan’s actions regarding Cyrus are incredibly suspicious. She can’t be the only one noticing.  

Cyrus calls Brando, and says he just wanted Brando to know that the PCPD ended their investigation of him. He made sure. Isn’t Brando pleased? Brando says, he is. What exactly does Cyrus want in return?  

Mac tells Robert, Obrecht committed the crimes, and set Peter up to take the fall. It makes sense; they’re in her wheelhouse. Robert is phoning it in with Peter, and upsetting Maxie. Robert says, he can tell? and Mac says, Maxie has accepted Peter and loves him. They’re going to get married, and start a family together. Let it go, for all their sakes. Robert says, he’s right, and Mac says, what? Robert says he’s being hotheaded, but if they think Peter changed his ways, who is he to otherwise. Mac says, thank you, and Robert says, except – Mac says, here we go – if anything, and he means anything, happens to Maxie or anyone around her, and Peter is implicated, he’s going to do something really bad to him. Mac says, if something like that happens, Robert won’t be doing it on his own.  

Maxie asks what Robert and Mac are talking about; it seems serious. Mac says they’re talking how much they both love her. Robert says, and how much they take her happiness seriously.  

Peter tells Jackie, it wasn’t easy rebuilding The Invader into a serious newspaper. He knew he would lose some readers.

Finn comes home, and sees Anna on her laptop. He asks what she’s doing, and she says she asked Peter to come over. She didn’t tell him though. Finn says, because… She says she may not have to. She thinks she’s found a way to prove once and for all if she’s Peter’s mother or not.

Tomorrow, Maxie asks if it’s not enough for Spinelli, Finn thinks Peter should hear about it from Anna, and Cyrus says he could use Brando on his team.

The Real Housewives of Orange County

The first episode of the new season was kind of sweet. We’ll see how long that lasts. It opened with pictures of the casts from days gone by, and a voice over about the seasons. I wondered if it was Jeana narrating, and it was (see below), so points for me. Shannon had a new house and a new boyfriend, John, who was introduced to her by a mutual friend. He has three kids and she has three kids, but they’re not Brady Bunching yet. Kelly had just become engaged to Rick Leventhal, and she was thrilled. She said he didn’t seem like he was 60, and she felt like she was in the move Cocoon. Geez, it’s not like he’s 90, and there’s Viagra now. Jolie has turned 13, and Kelly said she hated Brian, but loves Rick.

Gina also moved into a new place, and she said her life for the past year had been like a soap opera. We flashed back to her arrest, and she said she was proud of herself. She also had a new boyfriend, and they also have three children each. Is there something in the water? Must be, because Braunwyn moved too. She’s now a block from Shannon, and Kelly was moving into the neighborhood. Shannon was still pissed about Kelly reaching out to Jim Bellino in the midst of him suing Shannon, but Gina thought Kelly’s anger was more toward Tamra, who, in case you didn’t know, is gone from the show, along with Vicki.  

Replacing Tamra is Elizabeth, who lives near Braunwyn. In her interview, Braunwyn described Elizabeth as fun, and doesn’t take sh*t. In Kelly’s interview, she said Elizabeth had married a billionaire, and lives an extravagant lifestyle. She has jets and mansions. She also has a divorce in the works, and a boyfriend named Jimmy, who hasn’t had sex with her yet, since she’s still married. Sadly, her billionaire had a child with another woman when he’d told her that he didn’t want kids, even though she did. Ugh.

Emily is still married to Shane (come back, Shane!), and they were celebrating 11 years. She said the last six months had been amazing, and apparently, her hip surgery was a huge help. She said when she came out, it felt like she had a whole new life, and Shane was there to share it with her. Good for her. I guess. During dinner out, she told Shane that Braunwyn drank too much to have any meaningful conversation or relationship with.

Braunwyn called her new house, the suburban dream. It was 3000 square feet, and 3 stories, and included a home theater, some kind of disco den, and an outdoor pirate ship. I’m not sure what suburb she’s referring to.

Gina and Kelly went to hot yoga, and Kelly said she’s been kicked out 3 times, but didn’t elaborate. Was she too gaseous or combative? Gina was ready to get rid of her not-so-freshman 15 she’d put on because she’s in love. I understood that, but it usually doesn’t happen until after you’re married, when you can relax. Kelly told Gina that Braunwyn had gone to Miami when they were celebrating Rick’s 60th birthday. She wasn’t judging, but Braunwyn’s drinking was on a whole other level. When Gina mentioned that Shannon was still hurt by Kelly getting involved in the lawsuit, in her interview, Kelly said Shannon was choosing that tres amigas bullsh*t.

Elizabeth checked out a property for a dog rescue. In her interview, she said she grew up dirt poor in the south. When she realized money got her out of poverty, she never stopped working. She’s the owner of Edge Music Network, a video streaming service, and said she’s ready to sell her share, but she’s waiting until after the divorce is finalized. Smart move. She told us she’d lost herself being married, and had become a bobblehead wife. She couldn’t stand it, and had missed herself.

Shannon went over to Braunwyn’s house, and Braunwyn played peacemaker, inviting Kelly to join them. They did shots, and Shannon and Kelly made up (I think).

Braunwyn visited Emily, and admitted her drinking was out of control. She’d started drinking at 14, it had never been an issue, especially since she had been sober when she was pregnant. Since they have 10 kids, that’s a pretty big chunk of time. She told Emily she had never felt anything, and she was scared of finding out who she is without alcohol. Emily promised to be supportive, and Braunwyn said she didn’t think she could ever drink again, and it scared the sh*t out of her.

This season, Shannon is excited for 2020, Covid hits, one of Braunwyn’s sons does drag, Kelly’s third wedding, Braunwyn’s mom says she’s not as fun anymore, Gina screams at Braunwyn, and Gina says, 2020 has got to be better than 2019. Yep, we were all excited and we all thought that.

🎃 You Could Do Worse For Five Bucks…

This virtually seasonal benefit sounds like a lot of fun.

😢 This Made Me Cry…

The world has lost a true comedic talent who had an illustrious career.

🕰 No Time For Prime…

I skipped Prime Day this year. Last year all I did was sign up for Prime, and I still haven’t watched Mrs. Maisel. Tomorrow, Craig, Shep, and the Toms from Vanderpump Rules watch Southern Charm’s season 4 finale. I don’t know if they would have been my choice for commentary, but we’ll see. For now, stay safe, stay scrupulous, and stay away from Kelly at hot yoga.
