I felt like Hayley was written as a young child in season 5. There were instances where her behavior and treatment by others, didn’t match a young adult. It’s like the writers wanted the character to be much younger.

When visiting her Dad in jail, asking repeatedly what the numbers were the inmates were being called by sounded like a child. I get it, no matter the age, it’s hard to see a parent locked up, but Haller treated it like she’s not old enough to deal with it. I also realize that there’s bullies at every age, but being bullied by classmates sounds more like a grade school thing. Then finally, sending her away for the trial…again, seems like something that would do to a child.

Just discovered about Tuff Pro Wrestling, which has shows Saturday night’s on Linden Avenue. Wondered if anyone has gone and what they thought?

Went to Rockstar Wrestling a couple of times and was a good time. Unfortunately it appears to have been a victim of Covid. Don’t know if this is similar or not.

Rome and Jason are both considered big personalities, in my opinion, that were likely expected to have a big presence through the season. Now it seems like big losses. I could be wrong, and honestly I don’t remember names, but it seems like the same thing happened last season. Some big personalities were evicted early and wondered who would step up. By finale time, the early evictees were largely forgotten. By finale, just think, Jason could be an afterthought.

In her exit interview with Jason, Julie asked why he didn’t team with the ‘Icons’ due to his history on Drag Race. Considering Angela, Dee and Devens were all brought in separately and given immunity the first week, it would have been difficult for Jason to say, “Hey, I’m an icon too.”

Granted Drag Race doesn’t have the number of viewers that Survivor and Big Brother does, and isn’t supported by CBS….things would have gone differently though if he was linked with the other ‘Icons.”

I feel like with most exit interviews, Julie is pretty distant from the former houseguests, both literally and figuratively. Ever since Covid, she barely touches…social distance. However, I felt like she made an exception with Jason. Maybe it was the banging on the pan, but felt like she was overly welcoming to him. She is clearly a fan. She has earned the name ChenBot for a reason, but was much less structured with Jason. Anyone else feel like she was more friendly than usual with Jason?

The term ‘comp beast’ has become really overused. In the first few minutes of Thursday’s episodes; Melody, Mallory and Jason are all called comp beasts. That’s in addition to Devens, Dee, Kamu, and Lyric. just to name a few who are also considered comp beasts. If Angela were to somehow win a comp she would be one too. Begs the question, what’s the requirements to be considered a comp beast? Winning one competition? Finishing second or third?

Big Brother, especially in recent seasons, has a history of dropping the theme for most of the season. The premiere and the first couple weeks are theme heavy and then it’s gets forgotten, then at the end of the season producers remember they had a theme and bring it back. Last season is a perfect example. Do you think this season will be the same way or will time travel be a constant?

Saw this on Tik Tok some familiar faces from the show and some people I don’t recognize, make some jabs at Kevin Hart.

I heard that the Brass Ass closed. Am ashamed to say I went a few times. Was always a unique experience. Any Brass Ass memories?

I’m a stay at home dad to a 9 year old and twin three year olds. My 9 year old has had play dates with a friend regularly the past couple years, and the friends dad also comes. We have become friends too.

One of the twins is a little behind In several areas so started preschool last year. I dropped him off and picked him up, every day. Through out the whole school year the other twin, a girl, made friends with a girl her age, whose older sister was in preschool. The girl’s mother brought her. Every day, the girls would play together while waiting for entrance and dismissal. Then walk to our cars together. The parking lot is a pretty good distance from the school. The mother and I would speak. I should get to the point, before summer, the daughter gave me a little note with their number on it, saying to text for a playdate. Gave it to several other people. My question, is it awkward or acceptable for parents of opposite gender to go on a play date? Would you think anything about it? I think it would be different if we had never met.

Just curious, do most people look at every notification or wait until there’s a lot? If you leave a comment that gets a lot of reactions, keeping up with the notifications can be a lot.

On Tik Tok an old match came up from shortly after The Undertaker first appeared at the Survivor Series. The match was between Dean Douglas and Brooklyn Brawler with Heenan & Gorilla on commentary. I watch the old clips just to hear the classic commentators. It wasn’t long before he was just called The Undertaker, but was originally Kane The Undertaker.

Then years later, his brother appeared, named Kane. Speaking of classic commentary, can still hear J.R saying, “That’s gotta be Kane.”

I was just wondering, I don’t remember a name ever being mentioned, but for storyline purposes, when they were little boys, was another name ever mentioned for The Undertaker? Kane and his brother….

In recent years I’ve formed mostly a love/hate relationship with AGT. I love to hate it. Why I still watch, is a fair question. I’m not really sure of the answer. Part nostalgia.
Once in awhile is a moment of enjoyment…it was funny when the dog wouldn’t sing but made out with the owner….i do enjoy the magic and variety type acts. One I genuinely enjoyed was Cesar Dias. Was pretty funny. In true AGT fashion it was over produced with the judges and audience overreacting. It was still funny though and left me in good spirits, which the show hasn’t done in awhile.

The very first act of the season, Aggy, captures much of what’s wrong with AGT. First, a bad act that the audience cheers for. It made no sense, yet Terry was acting like it was great. Plus, the second chance, which was obviously scripted. I was expecting him back an episode or two later, but not within the hour. So we are supposed to believe, he arranged the music and all, in one night? I was prepared to stop watching if they put him through. My only question, why? Why waste two segments on an act that didn’t advance. The first act of the season did not make a positive impression.
