February Sweeps Emerges On “Days Of Our Lives!”

HOLLYWOOD—My instinct was right; I knew Stefan and Ava would ultimately hook up on “Days of Our Lives.” The tension between these two who were forced to work together to protect their loved ones, got drunk and gave into temptation, not once, but twice. Both were horrified after the deed, but Stefan even more. Why? It meant he cheated...

“The Oval” Recap: ‘No Regrets’

HOLLYWOOD—It was the episode of reckoning on “The Oval.” Betrayals erupted, but along the ways some secrets were exposed as well with this week’s episode, ‘No Regrets.’ It witnessed Simone and Bobby committing the ultimate deed where there is no turning back. Bobby realized it was a mistake, but Simone did not see it that way. Bobby resisting a beautiful...

Nikki Newman Cries For Help On “Young And Restless”

Taylor Swift Makes History At 2024 Grammy Awards

LOS ANGELES—I said I wasn’t going to watch the Grammy Awards because the previous few years have been so disappointing, the ceremony tends to go way longer than any other award show during awards season, but I’m glad I watched. I can do without Trevor Noah as host; he does a little too much. Chill with the theatrics and...

“The Oval” Recap: ‘Bed Of Lies’

HOLLYWOOD—Who is the power player? That is the question that remains on Tyler Perry’s “The Oval.” This week’s episode, ‘Bed of Lies’ continued to witness Hunter Franklin make moves to regain his power as the President of the United States. Really? Those masked people were with Sam. That is a terrible cliffhanger to say the least. Nancy was sworn to...

Drug Crisis Explodes On “Days Of Our Lives!”

HOLLYWOOD—The drug crisis is exploding in Salem on the NBC soap “Days of Our Lives.” Ava and Stefan are forced to peddle Clyde Weston’s drugs while he sits in a jail cell.

Dark Drew Emerges On “General Hospital!”

HOLLYWOOD—It is always a treat when a character veers off the deep end in the soap arena. This time around, the audience is seeing a different side of Drew Cain on “General Hospital.” This argument that Drew has an edge ever since he got out of prison is inaccurate. Drew has gained an edge after learning that it was...

“The Traitors” Kicks Off Season 2

HOLLYWOOD—It is very rare that I binge watch a TV series, it has to be something that hooks me and doesn’t let go. The U.S. version of “The Traitors” hooked me and I binge-watched the entire season in a single day, and it was juicy and fascinating to watch.  Well, a year later we have a new season with...

“The Oval” Recap: ‘Dark Secrets’

HOLLYWOOD—Big changes are taking place and I mean big changes on Tyler Perry’s “The Oval.” This week’s episode, ‘Dark Secrets’ witnessed Nancy at the mercy of Jason Franklin who held a butcher knife to her throat. This scene makes absolutely no sense whatsoever! What is the purpose here? Oh, Jason was trying to reach Sam and utilized Nancy to...
