LOL@ your summary... "nosy a** Holden"...

So much for Lily not caring about Sierra's feelings. Good to see she's not completely self absorbed as it relates to Sierra.

LOLOLOL what the hell was that silent whimpering going on at the door when Sierra walked in on Lucinda and Craig?! The overacting--I can't. But I love it! Lol.

And when they zoomed into Craig's face when Lily told him Sierra knew about him and Lucinda.

Then Liliy's dramatic exit--- LOLOL! I'm weak.

"Why did I ever let you near her?!" Lol dude. Is Sierra a person or a car that just got scratched? Maybe keep your peen in your pants? Then there would be nothing to tell.

ATWT is one of the closest soaps to a telenovela. Love. It.

So Holden goes back to being invisible....until Lily needs a punching bag. Lawd. I like that he stands up to her.

As an aside, what's with this "Miss Sierra" and "Miss Lily" nonsense? Geeze. I'm lost for words with the dynamics they are trying to portray. But whatever...

rofl I think anything involving Lucinda becomes very telenovela because she is so over dramatic that it rubs off on everyone else around her

I also read in an interview that the actress that played Lucinda was one of the only actors on the show allowed to improvise some of their lines, and I think that also raises some of the theatrics of others involved with her lol

Douglas is digging himself deeper and deeper into the Hughes family. The duo of Douglas and Marsha becomes increasingly more creepy. Margo questions Tom about Barbara being at his hotel room at 1 in the morning. Did Barbara's plan to make it look like she and Tom slept together work to split up Tom and Margo? Is Kevin onto Douglas?

Oh lawd. Makes her wrongness all the more tragic lol. I still like her.

"How simple, his Simply Barbara really is" the 1986 version of "you a basic b*tch" lol.

The lines, the low key and high key shade. Love it. She would have rather had her husband put his peen in a call girl instead of "someone like you". Hmph.

Maybe it's because it's Scorp season, but that whole scene between Margo, Tom and Barbara felt like a Scorpio experience. The interrogation style , the 20 million years later revenge plot *geeze Barbara*, the back and forth exchange, even the incorrect conclusion Margo came to because she was all worked up (well Tom can be partially blamed for that) lol d*mn....

Why didn't Tom just say "no, we didn't sleep together"? Smh...ATWT.

Right?

Sun - completely dismisses the fact that she did the same thing to Barbara---this is about my pain right now.

Moon - Barbara epically long revenge plan. She has the endurance of the gods.

Merc - Margo waiting for the right time to ask Tom about cheating and the thing she made note of before asking to "catch him" in a lie

Mars - goes into fight mode when she's really hurt, ultimately "hearing" what she wants to hear--which was never in fact admitted to. She's hurt so she doesn't need to hear anything else. Ready to burn sh*t up.


Hey, that's why we are loved.


By very few lol.
the Venus would have rallied the rest to just killed them both, so we'll say it's a Sag for now. We're very much "you f*cked up, you're loss---hmmm he's cute."

Who talks that loudly about escaping from a psychopath? They were practically calling Doulas to come eavesdrop lol.

Same with "Mama" Snyder (don't know her name lol) and Iva...why is everyone talking so loud?

Also, maybe my Scorp senses are too sensitive, but that look that Iva gave when Mama Snyder made that comment about abandoning a child....what's up with that? Same look Lucinda made quite a few episodes ago, but that was about Sierra. Iva's got a secreeeeeet...

I think the storyline was that there was some sort of rebellion or civil war going on in Montega

I actually have also seen season 1 of Misfits and thought it was pretty good. For some reason I never watched beyond that. I think it was because they took it off of Hulu
