There are no new episodes of whatever it is we normally watch on Sundays on Bravo tonight. Whatever will we do with ourselves?
I may do a quickie recap of the two episodes of Teen Mom that are sitting on my DVR. I can’t ever seem to get around to watching them. Or not. I just remembered that Big Little Lies comes on tonight and I haven’t seen the first two episodes yet. So I will probably do that.
I have no idea why there are no new shows tonight. The are running a fake “new” show of Below Deck Med tonight but it’s just a rerun of the first episode with social commentary or behind the scenes clips tossed in.
Whatever the reason they have, what it means is I get the night off for my birthday. Champagne is chilling as I type this.
How will you cope with no new Bravo shows tonight?
Happy Birthday! I am planning on 90Day Fiance and Big Little Lies. Enjoy your night!
Happy happy happy birthday! You should totally watch the train wreck known as 90 day fiance. Watch without having to provide us with the recaps. It’s a hoot of a show. And you get to see other countries, some of which you have lived in, visited, etc…Especially on “90 day the other way” – where the Americans go to live overseas. That one is right after the normal 90 day. Both on TLC tonight. Enjoy, whatever you end up doing!
Happy Birthday!!!
No BRAVO muy bueno! Let’s all party ! And by party I mean read , I’m boring ! Happy Birthday enjoy yourself! I love the open forums. We are all more interesting than the dreck we get force fed & regurgitated by Bravo.
Happy Birthday! I’m going to watch two episodes of The Good Fight tonight & watch Big Little Lies in the morning while I’m getting ready for work.
Great show but man do I miss The Good Wife! Is the new season any good?? Haven’t started it yet.
Happy Birthday, lovely friend! You brighten my days with your commentary on shows I watch (and the ones I don’t watch!).
I will probably watch an old movie on YouTube from New Castle After Dark!
Happy Birthday TT!
It’s a new Naked and Afraid XL tonight!!
Happy birthday to you!!!
I thought maybe Bravo decided not to show RHOP & Southern Charm NO because of the BET awards tonight? That’s the only thing I could come up with.
Happy birthday, Tamara! I hope you can relax and have a great day off.
Well happy birthday TT! I will be watching Naked and Afraid XL. Jamestown and The Aquarium. That is a spectacular facility y’all have. I have never been. I also enjoy The Zoo. I went there many times as a kid and it brings back happy memories of camel rides, seals, penguins and ice cream. I watch these on Sunday, then read your Bravo recaps and decide if I want to watch the shrieking housewives on the DVR. I have taken a pass the last two weeks of RHOP and half-watch BH.
Happiest of Birthdays to you! I hope you and Banjo enjoy your night off and celebrate! Maybe go to bed early? (What was I thinking? The best thing is to stay up late goofing around, knowing you are beholden to no one and nothing.)
Over here, we’ll be watching Big Little Lies and Part I of the Kardashians Season Finale.
I hope the coming year is all that you wish it to be. Thank you for all the hard work that you do and enjoy your night off. 🙂
Happy Birthday, TT! Enjoy your night off!
It’s cold and rainy here so as soon as I get home I’m going to put my pajamas and find a movie or two to watch.
Net flick has a series of 8 Marie Kondo (interesting but …) and on Youtube channel assorted Brene’ Brown talks. I’ve been listening to her trying to be braver on a personal level. Absolutely worth a go see.
KQEDW has the “most awesome” program “Stories from the Stage” Last night, all night they were doing a marathon of the series. First time in a very long time I was brought to tears and a few of the stories might be life changing. KQEDW has two other shows that many of you might enjoy, POV and America Reframed.
I can’t recall the name/titles but I watched several Asian/Japanese documentary’s. Wow, great, informative and our government, in our name, has a history of cruelty, without provocation I never knew about.
TT Please indulge in a decadent cupcake, eat slowly. Happy Birthday Lady
Happy Birthday Tamara! I hope you’re having a great day and then a fun evening. Enjoy!
BET awards are on tonight on 15 different channels so I think that is why Bravo has no shows. I will be watching Keeping it up with the Kardashians. Happy Birthday.
WOW, people still watch them?!
My wish for you,is to do whatever tickles your fancy. Think world’s largest feather boa. Love and all that tree huggin’ hippie shit
Happy Birthday Tamara!! I hope your Bravo free night is everything you imagined and more ♥
P.S. The more must be good stuff only lol
Happy Birthday Tamara!
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday TT! Enjoy your champagne!
Is there an episode of the Spanish Queen tonight? Today we started watching the series, The Queen of the South. Interesting but intense.
Hope you are having an easy weekend. Thank you for all that you do for us readers.
Cheers! 🍾
Happy happy birthday TT!! Pop that bubbly!
It was a great weather day in Maryland! No humidity! Planted 3 tomato plants and caged them with netting so the mo do deer and bunnies won’t eat them! Watered all my plants in anticipation of the hot weather to come starting tomorrow….happy birthday TT…hoping to have good news about the maters as they grow!
i planted a lavender, a geranium, & 3 carnations about my one lone tomato plant. Made a batch of deer stink and dribbled that around. better be the best tomato’s ever,
Please share your recipe for “deer stink”!
Wow is today really ur birthday?? Happy Birthday if so!! When I saw other commentators saying HB’day for some reason, I immediately wondered if having a summer or after school birthday was hard. Like were kids already on vacation? My birthday is near Thanksgiving, and I always had to have my “party” before or after. Anyway, just wondered.
Well, I think summer birthdays are great and June is perfect. It’s half a year away from Christmas! I’d hate a winter birthday. My mom would have just taken things from Christmas for my birthday.
But my childhood was a bit different than most peoples. I was raised in Tripoli Libya. The Americans would all have to leave the country for two weeks and then come back ever so often for visa purposes. So I remember birthdays in Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen and At the Milk Bar in Beirut. The Milk Bar was kind of the Lebonese version of the Moulin Rouge and not really appropriate for children, but my parents wanted to go and I quite enjoyed it despite saying inappropriate things quiet loudly when the dancers were pretty much topless.
When we were home on my birthday, I had to wear an itchy fancy dress my mother made and invite everyone. I only remembered it happening one time in Libya. My mother would make a multilayered cake and stick a barbie on the top and use the icing to make the layers a fancy dress.
I much preferred the times one of my friends would be in Beirut and somehow we were allowed to go alone to the makeup store and try on makeup. Honestly I think both sets of parent thought the other had the girls and had no idea. LOL
This concludes my birthday memories. Though do today is a pretty good one. Me and Banjo, some really gorgeous flowers, and a little something from Tiffany. Not a bad day at all.
Thanks for all the birthday well wishes. Cheers!
I have a December birthday, as did my mother, and my brother’s is January 4. Good thing that, as we’re Jewish, it didn’t conflict with Christmas in the family. I’ll be watching The Kardashians too. Guilty pleasure…even more so than the Bravo shows. Happy Birthday TT. I may not always agree with you, especially about LVP (not saying she isn’t manipulative), but I trust what you tell us and I value that. Thank you for being the cantankerous and soft bitch that you are and sharing that with us Wishing you the exact day you want.
I don’t think I’ve ever had myself described so accurately as this. ” Thank you for being the cantankerous and soft bitch that you are.” Thanks for getting me. xo ~tt
You are hereby known as “TCASB!!” Happy Birthday!! 💕
Happy Birthday dear Tamara❣🎉 🎂 Celebrating you & all my years of reading here. Wishing you & Banjo good health, continued success & happiness Always 💞
Happy Birthday! I hope you enjoy your special day!
I’ll be watching big little lies while drinking a glass of Kim Crawford and filling my online shopping carts full of thousands of dollars worth of clothing just to abandon them all because I don’t have that kind of money.
My kind of night.
It bugged me that some woman named a wine for herself. Then I read the REAL story — Kim is a man, a country boy, he says and very unlike the image the buyers of his company portray. That led me to wonder … if Tamara were a wine, what would she be? Something bubbly, for sure, maybe pink, complex. But not overly sweet. With a tag line as clever as a Thurber description of a fictional wine “you may be amused by its presumption.”
Ugh. Kim Crawford is just bad. Might as well drink Beringer White Zin. At least it’s cheap.
IDGI Who is Kim Crawford? Why does Kim Crawford have a wine? Why aren’t you drink Black Box like a normal person?
Kim has been there for me thru some tough times like the last presidential election. It might be bad, but I’ve never considered it anywhere near Beringer but I’m a wine idiot.
Never really stopped to ask who Kim is but she (he?) has a twist top which means less work to get into my wine. Always preferred. Never heard of black box.
Oh sweetie. BEHOLD THE BLACK BOX. FInd it on your grocery aisle and choose your favorite varietal. The wine industry is moving away from bottles and boxes aren’t the swill they used to be. Prices vary wildly from $17 to $25 dollars but they are always “on sale for the 16 to 18 dollar price range and there are four bottles in a box.
And Nanette, if I were a wine I’d be a cheap Chilean merlot. Don’t knock it till you try it. It’s full bodied and nonprentious.
Happy Birthday, TT!
We’re reading tonight. You’re our first selection of the evening.
Happy Birthday TT.
Happiest of happy birthdays TT!!! Cheers to you and enjoy your night off!
Happiest birthday to you!!
Happy Birthday! Enjoy and cheers!! ! Saddened by no Bravo
So when I tape two things at the same time I can’t watch on Demand until they are done. So now I am stuck watching WWHL before I can get back to Big Little Lies. FYI I don’t remind shit from Big Little Lies season one so I had to go back and watch the finale of season one in between episode one and two of this season and then in the middle of episode two I had to go watch my DVRED shows. (I choose the second Beirut episode of Parts Unknown because I seem to have deleted the Tripoli one when I thought I could never watch the shows again.
ANYWAY I am watching Andy interview these two guys that are podcasters???? Radio show hosts???? SUMPTHIN. Anyway the are a duo. We are three minutes in and he has already asked them TWICE how long they have been a team.
What’s he celebrating my birthday with? Coke? Booze? Pills? All of the above? He is really feeling himself because people say he was nominated for a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.
Remember when that meant something?
I heard somewhere that you can purchase a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for $13,000. Can that be true? If it is, that’s the only way that asshat Andy would ever get a star on the Walk of Fame.
Everyone who has a star has to pay for it themselves… But if I were Andy I would buy one too. But I am old and it used to mean something… I mean Donald Trump has one.,,
Sorry not trying to start a political war. I get it my financial situation is also better with Trump in office, I am also someone who is expatriating as a soon as my dog dies because he is too big for the passenger cabin. He is going to get us in a war, and perhaps not before I can leave.
Agreed but I can’t expatriate. At least the process should be easier because you’re getting ready for it. That’s exactly why I don’t get a pet-I can’t lose anyone else (although he would probably outlive me). I feel for you. He’s your sidekick. I know how much you love him. xo
It took me a while after last June to watch Parts Unknown. In the meantime, Netflix has Seasons 1-11 and CNN has all of Season 12 On Demand. So Tripoli is there when you are ready.
Excited to watch the soundtrack of Big Little Lies season 2, and I guess I’ll watch the story line too. Hoping they let that little girl dj every scene.
See, the soundtrack I find unsettling.It’s always sad music 🙁
Happy birthday. I had a feeling you were a cancer sign.
Because I am so crabby? 🙂
Happy birthday, Tamara!! I hope your day is filled with relaxation, something yummy to eat, and, of course, your faithful companion, Banjo! I, too, am a Cancer – yeah, maybe I can be a little crabby too sometimes. My birthday is technically in July, but on the 17th, so I made the Cancer cut off date apparently. I’ve done little to nothing today – woke up with a massive hip pointer pain I guess because I’m old and slept on one side all night long – who knows, I’m crabby AND old. I just watched St. Louis Cardinals baseball and watched a few things on YouTube – that’s it.
My daughter was born on New Year’s Eve, but I always made sure her birthday was completely separate from Christmas, even if a couple of her grandparents wrapped her b-day presents in leftover Christmas wrapping paper (man, that ticked me off too). Of course, all my daughter’s parents just loved my daughter’s b-day being on New Year’s Eve because as she got older, there were always slumber parties at our house, so no parents ever had to hire babysitters – they just sent their daughters to our house for the b-day slumber parties, which also meant, we were the only sober parents in town that night – ha ha.
Happy Birthday my love!!! Bravo free bday is the gift that keeps on giving 🙂 Love and hugs my friend ❤️❤️
Happy Birthday TT! I hope your enjoying it with Banjo❤❤❤ I’m sitting here watching episodes of Press Your Luck On Demand😂
This would come as a surprise to any of the PTA moms around me, although not surprising to ANY of my neighbors, but I listen almost exclusively to rap. So I love anything that takes me out of comfort zone. And I especially love a good old blues tune when I’m feeling down.
What I need is some old school Outkast, “AH HAH hush that fuss everyone move to the back of the bus” But that is not what you get on Big Little Lies..
What I get is a shit ton of first time commenters that think LVP is a saint and I am horrible. Or people telling me I talk about myself too much on this site, which um, I pay for and they don’t have to read.
But today is still my birthday for the next four minutes so, Imma do me.
Love me some spottieottiedopaliscious 🙂
OutKast…now you are talking. Enjoy your birthday and let big boi take us back to the day when our taxes were one page and we didn’t have to stretch to do laundry.
I finally had my baby! A little girl. So I’m spending the night being “that mom” who photographs everything she does.
Congrats beerandy! I am thrilled by this news. Email me all the photos!
I guess I’m the only idiot who watched all the old reunion reruns this morning laying in bed after leaving the hotel at 1am-water main break. No bueno. They were good-but I did want to see Kenya getting dragged and what exactly precipitated it. Oh yeah, the wand? Saber? I dunno, been a long day!!
Nope. Not the only idiot lol. That’s what I did too. Kenya with her scepter and megaphone setting Porsha off!
Scepter and megaphone!! Thank you!!
My guess IMMEDIATELY was download ratings. My assumption is that lots of people, including me, rewatch (and buy sadly) reunions. I spent the day in Neuropathy Treatment with my 90- year old Grandma and found peace that there were HW reunions on. Sick I know.
I am so late to the well wishes on your birthday Tamara! I did get distracted by a lot of comments and made one on another post…a bit too long…and laundry.
I also completely forgot that you share a birthday with my sister! Next year? “I’ll alert the media”…favorite line from “Arthur”.
Luv you, happy birthday Tamara.
Hugs, kisses to you and Banjo. Thank goodness you do all you do for us loyal TT followers.
Sincerely,
Kipper
It’s your birthday? Kisses Banjo instead. 🙂
I have binged Series 1 of Big Little Lies over the last day. It’s an Australian book relocated to California for the TV version. They did a great job, I didn’t feel ripped off that it wasn’t Australian on TV. I’m ready for Series 2 and your recaps.
Sundays are always 90 Day Fiance for me, and if I stay awake long enough–sMothered. Both train wreck TV but I love it. Happy belated.
I watched Good Omens on Amazon. It is delightful. On your birthday TT, I had a baby deer sit in my backyard all day. Very cool. I wish you a wonderful year!
Happy Birthday TT!! Best wishes in the upcoming year. I’ve been coming here for at least six years every morning after I read the news, even on vacation although I don’t always comment. I love your re-caps and I really enjoy most of the commenters ( a rarity for me on most sites)
I’m selling my house on Friday so I’ve spent the last two months cleaning and yesterday I sat in bed all day watching old movies on TCM to recuperate. They showed one of my favorite movie of all time “All about Eve” I adore Bette Davis but everyone in that cast is smashing. I love TCM. PLUS, no commercials!
All About Eve best film ever made !
@radchick61, Good Omens was so good. For me lately Sundays mean Endeavor on PBS. 🙂
I will check out Endeavor. I love PBS shows.
Happy Birthday Tamara! So much love to you and your baby Banjo 🧡💛💚❤💜💙🖤
Happy Birthday TT!
Happy belated birthday Tamara. I hope you and Banjo had some excellent cake.
A friend with a December birthday celebrates The 12 Days of Trine’s Birthday, so why not Tamara’s Seven Days of Solstice Birthday?
I am pretty sure that the reason that there was nothing new on Bravo last night was because Andy wanted to give YOU the night off. And, thanks to you, we now know that Andy makes ALL of the Bravo decisions and is the KING SHIT of the Bravo empire! 😜 Enjoy the other six bday days. (Or not. But do enjoy.)
Sorry to hijack, TT, but I know you loved him too…
Chefs Eric Ripert and Jose Andres have designated June 25 as Anthony Boudain Day, celebrating his life on his 63rd birthday.
My dad’s 90th birthday is today, sandwiched between Tamara and Tony. He’s in good company. (In Heaven with Bourdain.)
Happy birthday. I hope you enjoyed your day
Happy Birthday, TT! Hope it was a good one.
Happiest of birthdays, TT! Your site is a bright spot in my day and I thank you so much for all your hard work! Enjoy your special day, you deserve it!
Happy Belated Birthday, TT! Sending love and light your way! <3
Why, TT, why… I started watching my DVR full of Dance Moms- you challenged me and I accepted. I’ve never watched a single episode so started at season 1 episode 1… I’m currently on season 2 episode 21.
My dogs haven’t been walked since Sunday, I’ve barely showered or brushed my teeth…. and I’ve lived on microwaved hot dogs!
LOL!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY none the less! I might finish binging by my hubbies birthday on Friday! ❤👍👏🏆
