Kate Hudson Was ‘So Happy’ She Didn’t Have Her Famous Mother’s Last Name
Kate Hudson is insisting that she did not grow up as privileged as people might think, despite being the daughter of Hollywood star Goldie Hawn and musician Bill Hudson.
The actress claimed during a recent podcast appearance that her parents never handed anything to her or her brother, Oliver.
According to Kate Hudson, unlike the kids she saw in Los Angeles in her younger years, she didn’t “coast by” with parents who assisted them with “everything.”

Kate Hudson On Her ‘Privileged’ Childhood And Lessons In Hard Work With Goldie Hawn

Kate Hudson has opened up about growing up amid Hollywood privilege while being raised by parents who valued hard work over entitlement.
Though her biological father is musician Bill Hudson, who was married to Goldie Hawn from 1976 to 1982, the actress and her brother Oliver were largely raised by Hawn and her long-time partner Kurt Russell, 74. Hudson has often described Russell as the father figure in her life.
On a recent episode of the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, Hudson reflected on her upbringing, recalling how her parents were firm about one principle: nothing would be handed to her.
“I grew up in L.A., where I saw kids coast by with parents who gave them everything,” she said, per Fox News Digital. “And I had the opposite parents.”

“We were clearly privileged kids,” she admitted, “but I do think that my parents were so adamant about how none of it belonged to us, like that we didn’t earn it, that in order to get a life like the one we were living, we had to earn it ourselves.”
“That it would never be available to us unless we had the same kind of work ethic,” Hudson added.

The Actress Recalls Seeing Her Peers Get Cars From Their Parents As Kids

Returning to Los Angeles for high school after her family moved to the outskirts of Aspen, Colorado, when she was young, Hudson attended the exclusive Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences in Santa Monica.
At her school, she saw the stark contrast between her upbringing and that of some of her peers.
The actress remembered classmates receiving luxury cars and gifts, while her parents emphasized discipline and effort over material rewards.
“You grow up, and you see kids get cars that you’re like, whoa. We were the kids — and we’re privileged — and we’re like, ‘Wow, I can’t believe their parents bought them a new car,” she recalled.

Kate Hudson Says She Was Happy Her Last Name Wasn’t Hawn Or Russell

Both Hudson and Oliver eventually followed careers in acting, with the “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” actress admitting she took what her parents taught her “to heart.”
“For me, I really took that to heart. I was like, ‘No, I can’t — I will never rely on my parents,’” she said.
The actress continued, “And that was my big thing. I will never take a job because of them. I won’t. I don’t want anybody knowing they’re my parents. When I first started, I was so happy my last name was Hudson. It was really, really important to me.”
Hudson credits her parents for instilling a strong work ethic that shaped her career. “If you really want to do this, if you really want to act, you have to put in the discipline,” she reflected.

The Actress Shined On The Red Carpet At 2026 BAFTAs After An Oscar Nomination

Hudson drew attention once again as she arrived at the 2026 EE BAFTA Film Awards in London, turning heads in a stunning red silk gown.
The 46-year-old “Song Sung Blue” star radiated old Hollywood glamour in the strapless Prada ensemble, featuring a cinched waist that highlighted her slender figure. She complemented the look with delicate jewelry, including a standout diamond choker.
In high spirits on the red carpet, Hudson’s radiant smile matched the excitement of the evening. Her nomination for Best Leading Actress at the BAFTAs echoes her recent Oscar nod, marking 25 years since her first recognition in the same category.
This year, she faces competition from Jessie Buckley, Rose Byrne, Chase Infiniti, Renata Reinsve, and Emma Stone.
Kate Hudson Honored With Spotlight Award At Costume Designers Guild Awards

Earlier in February, Hudson attended the 28th Costume Designers Guild Awards at the Ebell in Los Angeles, where she was honored with the Spotlight Award.
The accolade recognizes actors whose careers reflect a lasting dedication to excellence and a strong appreciation for the art of costume design.
Speaking with Fox News Digital on the red carpet, Hudson shared what advice she might give her younger self.
“I think giving advice to my younger self would be like discounting all of the decisions that I made that were also like good decisions — even the mistakes and the ones that were challenging decisions that I made formed everything for who I am right now, so I wouldn’t go back and do anything different,” she said.

Still, reflecting on her career and her many memorable fashion moments on-screen, Hudson admitted to one small regret.
“You asked what I would do different and I was gonna say, I’d keep more clothes!” the actress joked.

New ‘CIA’ x ‘FBI’ Crossover Episode Goes Next-Level in Early Look at April 13 Release [Exclusive]
It’s no secret that FBI‘s latest spin-off, CIA, will more closely tie into the main series. Both are based out of New York, and the premiere episode saw none other than Jubal Valentine (Jeremy Sisto) introduce Nick Gehlfuss‘s by-the-books agent Bill Goodman into the joint operation between the two titular agencies. CBS has also worked to promote the two series as two sides of the same coin, united in their purpose to save people and stop threats before they get out of hand, but differing in their methods. For weeks now, they’ve been gearing up for their first big two-way crossover and, this coming Monday, April 13, it’s finally about to happen.
Collider is excited to share an exclusive sneak peek from CIA‘s upcoming seventh episode, “Elimination Game,” which will see Bill and his loose cannon CIA partner, Colin (Tom Ellis), on security duty at a high-profile international soccer game. However, everything quickly goes off the rails after a bomb threat, sending the pair on the trail of two missing players who are being hunted down. While they try to find the stars before it’s too late, the case continues to evolve and grow more complicated, necessitating some reinforcements from two agents with many years of experience under their belts — Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castille (Alana De La Garza) and Special Agent Maggie Bell (Missy Peregrym). From the promos, it appears Isobel will provide her expertise in the office, gathering all the intel needed, while Maggie joins the mismatched duo on the ground.
Our footage picks up in the immediate aftermath of Colin’s latest risky stunt, or, as he calls it, a “hunch,” the exact kind of reckless behavior that has made him so effective, yet so confounding to work with for Bill. This time, though, he’s not the only one there to push back on him. Maggie chews him out, knowing that his actions could’ve backfired and gotten Bill killed, but before he can get any more lecturing, an old friend pays a visit. An officer from South Korea’s National Intelligence Service recognizes that “where there’s chaos, there’s Colin,” and swings by to greet his old buddy and meet his new, much less fun partner. The two have a history dating back to their mutual friendship with Colin’s old partner, and it makes things a bit awkward for Bill, who’s still learning the ropes and not quite gelling perfectly with the CIA case officer.
‘CIA’ and ‘FBI’ Are in It Together for the Long Haul
“Elimination Game” is just one part of the CIA and FBI crossover. Back in March, Necar Zadegan, who plays the Deputy Chief of New York’s CIA office, Nikki Reynard, made her debut on the mothership series, helping Isobel when a case of smuggled goods turns out to be an international threat that requires her insight. With the spin-off series already confirmed for Season 2, it’s likely just the beginning for a long and fruitful partnership for the two shows that will give new life to the franchise on CBS. Their efforts together are designed to make the FBI world feel even bigger and thrust agents from both sides into new situations and offer new perspectives.
In an interview with TV Insider previewing the CIA side of this first link-up, Peregrym teased what Maggie’s mindset is seeing Bill and Colin’s partnership for the first time. She definitely sees where Bill’s struggles are coming from, not just from the difficulties of operating in a completely different world, but also from the trust issues he’s saddled with while on his real mission to root out the mole within the agency.
“I just see the dynamic between them and I’m like, ‘Ooh, this is a tough place to be when you can’t really trust your partner. Bill’s on our side. He’s FBI. We understand the rules, we get it. I can see what’s happening with Colin. And I’m like, ‘Oh, this guy’s off the rails a bit.’ And so I feel sorry for Bill, but I’m also like, ‘You just need to find a way to figure this out. You’ve got to find a way to work together, and it’s not going to be forever that you’re in this situation.’ But I feel bad for him. I’m just trying to support him in his situation, essentially.”
CIA Episode 7 premieres on CBS next week on April 13. Check out our exclusive sneak peek in the player above.

Only 3 HBO Shows Are Better Than ‘The Sopranos’
For the longest time, HBO has been the home for groundbreaking, hard-hitting, extraordinary dramas. With more freedom to explore darker stories and fewer limitations than network TV, HBO has served daring content, making it a destination for hits. When it comes to exceptional dramas, The Sopranos was synonymous with prestige TV, becoming the face of HBO and the poster child for the Golden Age of television. But what if there were other shows that were a bit better than The Sopranos?
For six seasons, The Sopranos enthralled audiences, but during its run and more than a decade after its debut, there were three shows that deserve as much, if not more, praise than the David Chase crime drama. One was a Western historical drama that aired concurrently, another was a mind-blowing supernatural tale, and the third was a twisted family drama. Though there certainly may be those who vehemently disagree, there is a reason why these three HBO shows top The Sopranos.
‘Deadwood’ (2004-2006)
Perhaps the most mindblowing entry on this list comes from the three-season masterpiece, Deadwood. Created by David Milch, Deadwood brought audiences back to 1870s Dakota Territory for a trip through history in the wild frontier, charting the town before and after its annexation by the Dakota Territory. The series uses historical truths and figures as well as fictional elements to document life in a swiftly shifting America. The initial narrative explores the camp’s struggle with lawlessness through the power struggle between ruthless saloon owner Al Swearengen (Ian McShane) and former lawman-turned-lawman once again, Seth Bullock (Timothy Olyphant). As new threats arrive, old rivals turn to new allies with the central goal of protecting Deadwood and its inhabitants. Deadwood is an exploration of greed, corruption, and the transition from anarchy to civilization, offering an authentic look at the stories we thought we knew through exceptional writing, standout performances, and a passion for celebrating history without sanitization. Yes, there was violence and vulgar language, but it was necessary for the world. By keeping the action stationary while individuals came and went, Deadwood established a strong atmosphere that became increasingly immersive over time, a realistic setting that may be the most honest depiction of the West.
Every actor in the cast helped to elevate the authenticity. McShane crafted a brilliant and refreshing Western character through Swearengen; there simply has never been a character quite like him. While The Sopranos focused more on the psychology of antiheroes, Deadwood focused on a deeper thematic exploration of civilization that carried across consistent arcs of quality. Deadwood made you empathize with some of the most morally grey individuals because it was an act of survival. On The Sopranos, murder was like a sport, so death had a significantly different impact on storytelling. Deadwood jumpstarted the Western boom of the 21st century. Sadly, due to high production costs, its continued journey was cut short. Had it fulfilled a completely realized run, the argument that it was better than The Sopranos would have been even stronger. Though a numerical count shouldn’t be an official determination of greatness, winning 8 Emmy Awards for its 36-episode run sure helps the case. While we did get a movie to tie a pretty bow on a historic season, Deadwood remains at the top of the heap as a show we lost too soon.
‘Succession’ (2018-2023)
By taking themes from King Lear and mixing them with the drama surrounding the Murdoch family, you get the revolutionary satirical black comedy-drama Succession. The Jesse Armstrong-created series centers on the Roy family, the owners of the global media and entertainment conglomerate Waystar RoyCo, and their fight for control of the company amid uncertainty about the health of their patriarch, Logan Roy (Brian Cox). The power struggle centers on the Roy siblings—Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), Shiv (Sarah Snook), and Connor (Alan Ruck), to an extent—as they seek to assume control, unafraid to topple anyone in their way. A deliciously juicy story of power, wealth, and deep dysfunction, Succession’s success was due to the top-notch cast, who brought fully realized, morally ambiguous characters to life, alliances shifting from conversation to conversation. With razor-sharp, often profane writing performed by a high-caliber ensemble, Succession is all-killer, no filler; moral ambiguity is the name of the game. There is not a single individual who isn’t flawed, and yet they’re so self-involved that they can’t see it.
Often, we view character growth as an individual learning something to become better. The evolution of some of these individuals went in the opposite direction until it was too late, and they lost it all. Even those on the periphery, like Tom Wambsgas (Matthew Macfadyen), Gerri Kellman (J. Smith-Camreon), Frank Vernon (Peter Friedman), and Hugo Baker (Fisher Stevens) weren’t marked safe from drinking the Roy dastardly Kool-aid from time to time. The Sopranos may, or may not, have saved its most important whack for last via a controversial blackout. Succession shocked viewers and characters alike by placing it smack dab at the front of the final season. That’s how you properly blindside an audience. At its core, Succession never strayed from its mission; it set out to be a scathing social critique of wealth inequality, corporate greed, and the ability to wield power; rarely would a storyline fall flat. There was exquisite agony through high-stakes drama paired with brief moments of levity that allowed you a smirk and a chuckle at the situation. Perhaps some credit should be given to The Sopranos, because Succession took the groundwork its predecessor laid and became the North Star every drama that follows will look toward. At the end of the day, a fantastic series needs exceptional writing and remarkable performances; in that sense, Succession ran laps around The Sopranos.
‘The Leftovers’ (2014-2017)
The heaviest exploration of loss, grief, and trauma came in the sensational supernatural drama The Leftovers. Based on Tom Perrotta‘s 2011 novel, it was one of the most emotionally heavy dramas of the 21st century, set three years after the “Sudden Departure,” a global catastrophe that left 2% of the population missing. Focusing on an array of affected people, including police chief Kevin Garvey (Justin Theroux) and his family, as well as grieving widow Nora Durst (Carrie Coon), The Leftovers tests the lines of spirituality, science, and the loss of faith as each person grapples with their new world differently. Through the lens of the psychological and emotional aftermath, The Leftovers paints a bleak picture of what such an event could bring if it were to happen to us. Intensely emotional and profoundly resonating, The Leftovers pushed a character-driven masterpiece to the forefront without ever being bogged down by the science-fiction elements surrounding it.
The Leftovers became an examination of humanity rather than a direct focus on the mystery itself. It started its journey in the small New York town, yet it was unafraid to shift locales to further the story and expand the lore and mythology. For some series, a change of location signifies desperation; for The Leftovers, it only made the story even stronger. This drama broke traditional television conventions smartly, allowing the narrative to evolve over time and crafting an engaging philosophical post-apocalyptic atmosphere. The Leftovers never made it easy for anyone — not for its characters or its viewers. With most high-concept series, should they introduce an element like the Sudden Departure, you wait with bated breath for answers; not here. The Leftovers was a character-driven masterpiece that let you see deep into the deeply flawed, broken people who remained. In some sense, it might be unfair to compare it to The Sopranos, as these shows are not cut from the same cloth. But viewing it as a complete television package, The Leftovers has the edge. The risk was well worth the reward.

Laken Snelling Appears in Court, Enters Manslaughter Plea
Former University of Kentucky competitive cheerleader Laken Snelling appeared in a Lexington courtroom on Friday, April 10, entering a not guilty plea after being indicted for the death of her newborn baby.
Snelling was dressed in a blue, floor-length dress and flanked by her two attorneys in a video captured by TMZ. She did not speak at the brief hearing.
After Snelling’s lawyers entered the not guilty plea, the former student-athlete was directly addressed by the judge.
“Ms. Snelling, you are currently out on a posted bond,” the judge said. “Continue to comply with the terms of your bond conditions. No further violations of the law.”
A pretrial conference was scheduled for May 14, with a status hearing scheduled for June 12.
Snelling was indicted on charges of first-degree manslaughter, abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence and concealing the birth of an infant on March 10.
She was taken into custody at the Fayette County Detention Center on March 12, where she took a mugshot. Snelling’s father posted a $10,000 bond and she was released.
The manslaughter charge was issued against Snelling after it was determined her baby was alive when she gave birth in August 2025 before she allegedly hid the body in a closet in her Lexington home. First-degree manslaughter is a Class B felony in Kentucky, punishable by 10 to 20 years in prison.
The infant’s cause of death was ruled to be “asphyxia by undetermined means” by the Kentucky Medical Examiner’s Office.
Snelling was not charged with murder because she acted under “extreme emotional disturbance,” according to an indictment obtained by Us Weekly in March.
The indictment said Snelling “intentionally abused the infant and thereby caused death to a person twelve (12) years of age or less, or who is physically helpless or mentally helpless.”
Snelling, a former member of the University of Kentucky’s STUNT cheerleading team, was initially arrested in August 2025 after her roommates found a “blood-soaked towel on the floor and a plastic bag containing evidence of childbirth.”
When she was questioned by authorities, Snelling “admitted to giving birth” and to “concealing the birth by cleaning any evidence, placing all cleaning items used inside of a black trash bag, including the infant, who was wrapped in a towel.”
After being arrested the first time, Snelling was released on bond and ordered to live under house arrest while wearing a GPS tracking device.

Star Trek’s Boss Tried To Make Leonard Nimoy Hate Deep Space Nine
By Chris Snellgrove
| Published

One of the most complex figures in Star Trek history is Rick Berman, the executive producer who oversaw the Golden Age of the franchise. It’s undeniable that he helped transform Trek into a modern-day cultural phenomenon, building on Gene Roddenberry’s legacy and bringing a new generation of fans into the fold. At the same time, numerous Trek actors and creatives have accused him of intense homophobia that held the otherwise progressive franchise back, and Deep Space Nine star Terry Farrell accused him of rampant misogyny that caused her to ultimately leave the show altogether.
Recently, at the Trek Talks livestream telethon, DS9 showrunner Ira Steven Behr shared a fairly wild story involving Berman. When Behr and the show’s writers were working on “Trials and Tribble-ations,” which used footage from The Original Series, Berman urged him to call Leonard Nimoy and get the Spock actor’s blessing for the use of his old footage. Berman highly implied this would be a dramatic phone call and that Nimoy would have problems with the idea. Only after discovering how friendly Nimoy was and how much he loved the concept did Behr realize something startling: Berman had set him up and tried to turn him against Star Trek’s best actor.
A Very Logical Phone Call

When Ira Steven Behr told his tale during Trek Talks, it wasn’t immediately clear whether Paramount really would have faced any legal trouble if the Spock actor objected to Deep Space Nine re-using some of his footage from The Original Series episode, “The Trouble With Tribbles.” However, executive producer Rick Berman still thought it wise to seek Leonard Nimoy’s blessing. Behr claims that “Rick had prepared me like it was going to be a very prickly phone call.” Later, he clarified that Berman never played pranks and was obviously deadly serious, saying things like “I’m not making this call. You’re making this call. Don’t be surprised if he tells you to go, you know” before trailing off.
While Behr didn’t fully complete this thought, it sounds like Berman was worried that Nimoy might quote himself from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country: “Go to hell.” Nonetheless, the showrunner steeled his nerves and gave the iconic Trek performer a call. When he mentioned the plan to merge Deep Space Nine actors with The Original Series footage, there was a long pause on the other end. Just when Behr thought the call was about to go sideways, Nimoy surprised him with his response: “What took you so long? Absolutely, yes. I’m all for it.”

After Leonard Nimoy gave such an enthusiastic response, Behr began wondering why Rick Berman had thought the call would go so poorly. “Whoa, Rick, what are you setting me up for?”, he thought. Years later, Behr and Nimoy had a three-hour lunch where they traded old Star Trek tales, and Behr admitted to the other man how that phone call made him nervous and how much he dreaded Nimoy’s response. With the incredulous grace of Mr. Spock himself, Nimoy asked, “Why would you be worried,” and asked Behr what he thought “I was going to give you a hard time about?” Lamely, Behr could simply reply, “Well, that’s what Rick said, he set me up.”
A Secret Star Trek Beef Revealed?
But why did Rick Berman think this call to Nimoy was going to be so intense in the first place? Prolific Star Trek writer and archivist Larry Nemecek was also in attendance at Trek Talks, and he offered a fairly compelling theory. When Paramount began to work on Star Trek: Generations (which was intended to pass the torch from The Original Series to the Next Generation crew), Leonard Nimoy wanted to direct the film.

After directing Star Trek III: The Search For Spock and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, Nimoy seemed like a solid choice. However, Rick Berman had already hired David Carson to direct the new film, and he was apparently worried that this would have ruffled the feathers of the otherwise unflappable Nimoy.
Fortunately, all’s well that ends well. Nimoy wasn’t offended at all, and he gave his full blessing to Deep Space Nine’s “Trials and Tribble-ations.” Later, he helped pass the torch to a new set of actors when he starred in Star Trek (2009). Until his untimely passing, it’s fair to say the Spock actor did everything he could to help Star Trek succeed.
Protecting the legacy of the franchise that made him a household name? It’s only logical, captain!

Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila’s Shocking New Romance After Split – It’s THIS Surprise Guy!
Bold and the Beautiful has Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) heartbroken because she could not convince her husband Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) to stay with her instead of running off with his sidepiece Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig).
We know that Sheila is absolutely crushed, but she told Deacon that she’s not going to do something that she would regret. So, that means that she’s got to find a way to move on.
We’re going to talk about who Sheila’s next love may be after her failed marriage to Deacon. Before we dig into it though, please hit subscribe if you’re not following us yet.
Sheila and Deacon Split Up
Now, this week, we saw Sheila confront Deacon about his affair with Taylor, and Deacon finally admitted he’s in love with Taylor, and he wants to end his marriage to Sheila. But she wasn’t going to let go easily. She begged him not to dump her, and she reminded Deacon that he made a vow when they got married, the whole till death do us part thing. And Sheila was pushing Deacon to please fight for their marriage.
But he told Sheila he can see she’s changed, you know, which was nice. And Deacon said he’s proud of her and will always want what’s best for her. However, he refused to stay with Sheila because he is in love with Taylor. So Sheila walked away.
Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila Makes a Stand
She left Il Giardino, but she vowed she’d be back and said, “This is not over.” But it is definitely over, at least for now. And as of Friday, Taylor is over at Deacon’s place with his kids, Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Deacon, and they’re talking about whether Sheila is really going to go away quietly.
However, Deacon’s kids are happy they’re together, especially if there’s no ongoing threat. As for Sheila, if she sticks around on B&B, and it looks like she will, she’s going to need a new love interest eventually, or at least a guy to help distract her from the pain of losing Deacon, and we have some ideas of who the lucky or unlucky guy might be.
Dr. James Warwick
So, the first guy to consider is a little blast from the past, Dr. James Warwick. I love Ian Buchanan. Big fan of his over from General Hospital and he was great on Bold. If you remember, he was Sheila’s psychiatrist back in the day and he was actually Taylor’s mentor and she was the one who took his v-card.
I think they were stuck in a blizzard. So, if you don’t remember, James was married to Sheila back in the late ’90s, and they have a daughter together whose name is Mary Warwick, who’s also kind of a nutter. But things got pretty rocky for Sheila and James.
Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila’s Blast from the Past
At one point, Sheila kidnapped James and she held him hostage in her basement. And Sheila nearly killed him with a fireplace poker. She has held James at gunpoint in the past. And Sheila blackmailed James when we last saw him on B&B in 2017 when he had a little return arc.
So Sheila might like to fall back with somebody familiar like James, someone that she doesn’t have to explain herself to like she would a new guy. You know, if Sheila was meeting someone on an app or picking up someone in a bar, her messy history might come up and James already knows it and he’s kind of okay with it.
Bold and the Beautiful: Jack Finnegan
So, a second guy to consider is another past fling, hunky lawyer Jack Finnegan, who she also has a child with. Back when he was married to Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda), if you remember, Jack cheated with Sheila and got her pregnant with Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan). And Sheila was crazy about Jack, but he forced her to leave Finn. And then Li adopted the kid with him. Sheila never got the life she wanted with Jack. He’s another one who got away from Sheila. The reveal of Jack and Sheila’s affair and them being Finn’s bio parents was what wrecked Jack’s marriage to Li.
So, I could see Sheila wanting or considering taking another shot at Jack. And honestly, I would love to see Ted King back to Bold and the Beautiful, somebody else I’m a huge fan of. So, I’d be down for Jack and Sheila to reunite. However, if that was to happen, I think that would end Li and Sheila’s new friendship. And of course, Li is the only friend that Sheila has, so it wouldn’t be a smart move. But I love Ted King.
Bold and the Beautiful: Mike Guthrie
Another guy to consider is Mike Guthrie. He was Sheila’s partner in crime way back in the day and then they brought him back a few years ago. Mike returned in 2022 and he helped Sheila out when she was in jail for shooting Finn and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).
And I think at that point he was a guard. If you recall, Mike was obsessed with Sheila and he helped break her out of prison. And Mike told Sheila that he had feelings for her, which is kind of shocking seeing as she was often just awful, awful to Mike. Back in the day, Sheila even sicced a vicious Doberman on him if you remember.
And after Mike helped Sheila escape from prison, Li caught Sheila, tied her up, and was going to send her back. But then Mike cracked Li over the head and let Sheila go free. And then Mike himself wound up in prison. But at least he got a kiss from Sheila. And then in 2023, Sheila was sent back to prison and Mike was also still a prisoner. He was thrilled to reunite with Sheila, but then she got out. The upside to her rebounding with Mike is that he would be totally devoted to Sheila, which might boost her ego after Deacon left her for another woman.
A Brand New Villain?
Another possibility is, of course, Bold and the Beautiful might bring in a new guy for Sheila. Could be a bad guy, a brand new villain to take her mind off Deacon. And if he’s a baddie, he might tempt Sheila back to the dark side. Right now, it does appear that she’s truly changed, but you never know what can happen. Especially if she has somebody new who’s kind of dark and they’re influencing her. That could be fresh and fun. And if this new guy’s devoted to Sheila, she might run with him while she’s still heartbroken over losing Deacon.

Will Sheila Ever Give Up On Deacon?
And speaking of him, we got to talk about him as an option because Sheila is never ever going to give up on Deacon. At least not for the foreseeable future. When she left Il Giardino this week, Sheila promised she would be back. And I don’t think she was talking about the pizza or the tiramisu cookies.
She said that she and Deacon are not over. So there is a chance that Sheila may rebound and you know she has this grief over losing her marriage and she gets involved with one of these other guys we talked about but in the back of her mind she’s still plotting a future where she could steal Deacon back from Taylor who as far as Sheila is concerned does not deserve Deacon and doesn’t truly love him.
Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila’s Heart Stuck?
But I could definitely see Sheila using one of these other guys as a temporary distraction. Sort of a band-aid over the wound on her heart. But I think her heart, as dark and bizarre as it is, is always going to belong to Deacon.
And Sheila might always pine for Deacon and hope that they will reunite one day and kind of work towards that goal if she sticks around. And it seems like Sheila might be the one peeping on Taylor and Deacon at the end of this week when they are finally together. I mean, hopefully Sheila won’t obsess and fixate and stalk them constantly, but it could happen.
So, maybe another man is just what Sheila needs to get her mind off of this mess.

Young and the Restless Next Week Spoilers: Nick Kidnapped in Dangerous Plot – Diane Brutally Called Out!
Young and the Restless spoilers for next week get into Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) getting kidnapped while he’s being way too cocky and high on drugs and Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) getting called out on the sins of her past.
We’ve got the latest Y&R spoilers for the week of April 13th for Nick, Diane. And also Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) who is worried about Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope). And we’ve got Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) dropping the hammer on somebody.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Traci Calls Out Diane
All right, first let’s talk about Diane and Traci Abbott. I am so glad to see Beth Maitland back and of course they’ve got her in some great scenes with various people. She’s had scenes with Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) recently. Then this week, Traci just gave Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) a shoulder to cry on. It’s about Malcolm Winters‘s (Shemar Moore) blood disease and how upset that Lily is that she can’t be his bone marrow donor. Because of her past cancer.
She cried to Traci that she couldn’t save Neil. And now it looks like she can’t save her bio dad Malcolm. So Traci’s there for her as Lily has a good cry. And she’s telling Traci she’s terrified that she’s going to lose Malcolm after losing both her mom and Neil, who was the best dad ever.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Holden’s Not a Match
So, after Traci reassures Lily not to lose hope, she’s going to take off to see Malcolm and there with Stephanie Simmons (Vivica A. Fox) and Holden Novak when they get the bad news that he is not a match for their dad. So, Lily immediately arranges for the twins to get tested off-screen as expected.
Now, despite Traci being sweet and supportive to Lily, next week’s Young and the Restless spoilers have Traci’s demeanor changing drastically when Diane shows up to the Abbott mansion. As she told Jack Abbott last week, Diane just can’t stop seeing him in bed with Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk).
Now, we know that Traci is a big fan of Jack and Diane. And she recently told her older brother that she’s sure that he and Diane can get past this marital crisis. And of course, Traci blames Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) for all of this. Not Jack, not at all.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Traci Fed Up
So, next week on Y&R, seems like Traci has had enough of Diane punishing Jack when honestly, he is a victim in all of this. He’s not a perpetrator. So, Traci puts Diane in her place and dredges up one of the biggest sins of her past. Honestly, the biggest sin of her past, if we’re being real.
Traci reminds Diane next week that she faked her death and let Jack and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) think she was gone forever. And in light of Jack forgiving Diane for that and falling back in love with her, Traci thinks that Diane should be giving Jack a little grace in this
situation. And I think Traci is spot on with that. Hopefully, it’s going to be a wake-up call of sorts for Diane. And I think sometimes people need to be reminded of their own screw-ups when they’re judging other people.
Is Sally Pregnant on Y&R?
And also next week on Young and the Restless, Audra heads over to the cute little house that Sally Spectra shares with Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson). And it looks like Sally may be having some sort of little crisis because Audra is asking if Sally is sure that she’s okay. So, maybe she’s feeling a little under the weather, something like that.
I think we all know where this is headed because then she asks Audra if she brought what she asked for. And I’m wondering if Sally asked Audra to pick up a pregnancy test and bring it over to the house so that she could take it so maybe she’s feeling a little queasy, a little under the weather.
Plus, we have an April Young and the Restless spoiler that says, “Billy and Sally make plans for their future.” So, it might be about a little baby bombshell.
Nick In Big Trouble on Young and the Restless
All right. Now, let’s talk about the bad things that Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) is doing in Las Vegas next week because Nick is in big, big trouble in coming days. So, he’s listening in on Riza Thompson (Tina Casciani) at the end of this week who is making out and making plans with his brother Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and she finally says that Spyder can meet her partner.
And then Riza takes off and Nick is wondering just how deep Adam is getting in with Riza while he’s playing Spyder. And Adam makes it clear he is not going to slither into Riza’s sheets. But Nick is worried that doing this is going to mess up Adam and Chelsea Newman‘s (Melissa Claire Egan) relationship, especially after Adam is dodging calls from Chelsea.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Nick’s Addiction Intensifying
So, Nick has, by the way, moved on from taking the fentanyl pills to crushing and snorting them, which is next level addiction. And after a spike of opioid-based confidence, he then tells Adam that he wants to be the one to bust into Riza’s room and he is going to snatch Matt.
Now, Adam thinks this is a bad idea. But Nick insists it has to be him. Meanwhile, Matt is in Riza’s room waiting. And as usual, looks like he is a couple of moves ahead because Matt is more than ready to deal with the Newman brothers.
And Nick tells Adam he’s got to be the one to stop Matt once and for all. He convinces him. So Adam stops bickering and says, “Okay, he’ll have Nick’s back while he goes in to take Matt down.”

Young and the Restless: Matt Suprises Riza
Meanwhile, back in Rizza’s room, she’s surprised that Matt let himself in and has a key to her room. So, he sends her away and tells Riza he wants to meet Spyder alone. So, she takes off after asking if he’s jealous. Nick and Adam head down to Riza’s hallway.
And looks like Nick is going to go in alone. But he has his phone on so that Adam can listen in. And he’s going to wait right outside for Nick in case his brother needs him. Riza’s door is slightly ajar and the room is dark, so Nick goes in calling out if anybody is there. Yeah, somebody is. It’s Matt. And he puts a bag over Nick’s head. That’s where we leave off this week.
Matt Kidnaps Nick
And then based on Young and the Restless spoilers for next week, you got to wonder exactly how Matt manages to get around Adam, who’s supposed to be out in the hallway because Matt has managed to get Nick all to himself.
So, somehow, Matt managed to get big old Nick out of the hotel and Matt’s got Nick tied up and it looks like they’re in a storage room, if not out of the hotel downstairs into some area where the workers convene. And then Matt yanks the bag off his head and says, “Hey, Nick, long time no see.” And as Matt is taunting him, Nick looks honestly like he is still high as a kite.
So, clearly he’s in big trouble. All his plans to take Matt down have backfired on him. And we know that Chelsea is planning to get on a plane and head to Vegas because Adam is not taking her calls. So, Chelsea may show up next week and spot him with Riza. We also got to wonder how long Matt has been on to this scheme that Adam and Nick were planning because again, he’s a couple of moves ahead.
Be sure to check out our complete weekly spoilers video for the week of April 13th through the 17th coming soon, plus our weekly prediction edition, our two-week spoilers, and lots more. And don’t miss a moment of Y&R next week to see if Sally’s pregnant, if Matt hurts Nick, and if Diane finally decides to ease up on Jack.

Kids Today Will Never Understand Network TV’s Most Powerful Hype Machine
By Robert Scucci
| Published

Sit down around the fire, my lads, and let me enlighten you on the relic of ancient media known as clip chows. Back in my day, cable TV ruled the landscape, and sitcoms ran for 22 to 26 episodes a season. Week after week, we’d go on a new adventure, wondering what kind of trouble Homer Simpson, Ross and Rachel, Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor, and Jerry and the Seinfeld gang would get themselves into. But toward the end of any given season, there wouldn’t be a new adventure. Instead, we’d get the dreaded clip show.
I call the clip show “dreaded” because most people didn’t like them. I had no strong feelings either way. The idea of reusing content under the guise of a new episode never really bugged me so long as it served a purpose. As long as the episode was framed in a way that was palatable, I was all for it. I always saw it as a greatest hits reel, and if there was a solid framing device, it was a great way to revisit some of the best moments from any given series.

But there’s more to Clip Shows than meets the eye. They were important to a series’ health in a world where DVDs weren’t yet ubiquitous, and home media consumption hadn’t exploded into what it is today. In the streaming era, the idea of a clip show is rightfully preposterous. That’s why Friends, which concluded its run in 2004, used them often, while How I Met Your Mother, which debuted in 2005, mostly avoided them outside of the occasional flashback-heavy episode.
What’s The Point Of A Clip Show?

Home Improvement had some of the best Clip Shows because they were framed around Tim Taylor’s horrible decision-making. Season 4 featured two back-to-back clip shows, “Tool Time After Dark: Parts 1 & 2.” The series had just hit its stride and quickly became appointment viewing for millions of American families. But writers get tired, cast and crew members need downtime, budgets get stretched thin, and the show must go on.
So how did Home Improvement handle it?
Tim eats too much Polish food, gets laid out on the couch, and spends both episodes wrapped in blankets, drinking antacid through a bendy straw while watching reruns of Tool Time. It’s a clip show done right. It’s essentially a bottle episode that only really required Tim Allen on set for a majority of its runtime, saving on payroll toward the end of Season 4. It’s also a clean framing device that lets casual viewers catch up on the show’s best moments.
Budget And Back-End Sales

Clip Shows served two very specific purposes: saving money and marketing.
Star Trek: The Next Generation’s first and only clip show, Season 2’s “Shades of Gray,” was famously hated by fans, but it was born out of necessity. The showrunners spent so much of the season’s budget building elaborate set pieces for episodes like “Elementary, Dear Data” and “Q Who,” that they didn’t have enough funds to properly finish the season. The result is an episode centered around William T. Riker experiencing flashbacks to earlier events in the series. It’s widely considered one of the show’s worst episodes, but those earlier episodes helped introduce the Borg into franchise canon. Sounds like a fair trade-off in the grand scheme of things
Series like Home Improvement, The Simpsons, and Friends used Clip Shows differently. This was the sitcom golden age, when serialization wasn’t required. Sure, there was continuity from season to season, but for the most part, you could jump into a random episode and follow along just fine. It was during a time when clip shows ruled the land.
Clip Shows Thrived In A Pre-DVD Era

Clip Shows offered a crash course in a series’ best moments for casual viewers. Circling back to Home Improvement in its fourth season, anyone just getting into the show had to decide whether they wanted to start from scratch with reruns through syndication. DVDs were introduced in the U.S. in 1997, but most households didn’t adopt them until the early to mid 2000s.
And why would they? After decades of collecting VHS tapes, switching to an unproven format meant dropping a significant amount of cash on something that wasn’t yet proven by the market. Early, primitive DVD players cost up to $600, and then you still had to buy the DVDs in order to watch anything on them.

Networks wanted more eyes on their shows, and VHS tapes could only hold a handful of episodes. The Simpsons had specialty tapes like Treehouse of Horror collections, but full-season releases weren’t really a thing yet, and if they were during the VHS era, we’d all have to rent storage units to contain them. If you were tuning into Home Improvement for the first time and caught “Tool Time After Dark” by happenstance, you’d get everything you needed. Tim’s reckless habits, his ongoing dietary mishaps, and a highlight reel of Tool Time disasters.
Clip Shows were a sizzle reel. They were basically saying, “If you like any of this, there’s plenty more where that came from. Stick around.” Clip Shows were the greatest hits albums of network television, and in this context they thrived.
Changes In Consumption Habits Killed The Clip Show

Once DVDs proved they were here to stay, Clip Shows disappeared almost overnight. There was no need for them. Consumers could buy entire seasons at a reasonable price and own them forever. If you wanted to turn someone into a fan, you didn’t need a sampler platter. You could just show them a handful of great episodes from your DVD collection.
Then, in 2005, YouTube launched. Early on, it was mostly home videos and clips from shows like Family Guy that people wanted to pass around via email; it made sharing standout moments even easier.

As home media became more accessible, Clip Shows became unnecessary. Good shows marketed themselves through word of mouth. The streaming era brought us shorter, more serialized seasons, making them even less practical. They worked in an episodic format where you could mix and match, but when you’re dealing with season-long story arcs, there’s no clean way to justify them.
These days, If I want to introduce a friend to The Simpsons, which is nearing 40 years worth of episodes, I’m not throwing on “So It’s Come To This: A Simpsons Clip Show.” I’m pulling up Disney+ or digging through my physical media and making them watch “Bart on the Road,” “You Only Move Twice,” and “Duffless.”
But kids today, watching a clip show out of context on streaming, will never understand how differently we consumed media in the 90s and early 2000s, or how necessary clip shows were for getting people hooked on a series in the first place.

Netflix’s 8-Part Overlooked Drama Becomes a Late-Night Sleeper Hit Months After Its Release
While Netflix’s Top 10 streaming charts are usually filled with some major household names, some unexpected surprises often manage to find their way to the top. Currently, while the third season of XO, Kitty is reigning supreme on the platform, most of the other top TV shows on the list are smaller, less buzzed-about projects that are drawing in viewers more than anticipated. Among them is Ripple, an eight-episode drama series that’s equal parts soapy and endearing.
The series, which was initially ordered by Hallmark+ and later bought by Netflix, was first released on December 3, 2025. At the time, the series also picked up traction and rose to Netflix’s Top 10. Now, per FlixPatrol, it’s surging in streaming all over again at #8.
What Is ‘Ripple’ About?
Taking place in New York City, Ripple follows four strangers as their lives suddenly intertwine, and they become a close-knit chosen family to one another throughout the series. Among them is Nate (Ian Harding), a kind bartender who’s separated from his wife and can’t seem to kick a persistent cough. In the first episode, he connects with Kris (Julia Chan), a record executive who’s just lost her job and is looking to start a new chapter. That’s when Aria (Sydney Agudong) comes in. After giving up her music career and struggling with depression at home with her finance husband John (Robert Bazzocchi), Aria gets a second chance at her dream when Kris hears her sing, and believes in her talent more than anyone else.
The last piece of the puzzle is Walter (Frankie Faison), who, in the first episode, is giddy celebrating his 30th wedding anniversary with his wife, Brenda (Tina Lifford). When he wakes up, however, Walter suffers an unfathomable loss, and it turns his world upside down. As the series introduces these characters, it connects them through an invisible string (or, better yet, rock). After letting go of a blue pebble while looking off her balcony, Aria accidentally hits Nate on the head, who’s just passing by. The cut leads him to the ER, and uncovers a health battle he would’ve never found otherwise. The next day, after Walter picks up the pebble and releases it in Central Park, Kris trips on it, and it leads to Aria singing with her guitar. Albeit a tad cliché, Ripple suggests that these four strangers are meant to find one another, and help each other through their personal crises.
‘Ripple’ Is a Soapy Yet Bingeworthy Drama
While fans of soapy Hallmark shows and telenovelas might already be sold on the story, the series might be a change for Netflix subscribers. After all, TV shows that lean into the too-sweet, sappy side aren’t exactly Netflix’s bread and butter. With that said, however, the series, created by Michele Giannusa, has an undeniable strength in drawing viewers in through its writing and performances. By establishing their own touching stories, and showing that they’re a part of something larger, almost pre-destined, viewers of the first episode are immediately compelled to watch more and see how their personal stories unfold. So while most Netflix audiences might find the series cheesy, chances are they’ll continue watching it until the very end.
Among the highlights of the show are the performances by the main characters, including Pretty Little Liars alum Harding. In one of his most heart-wrenching roles to date, he nails being a detached business owner who suddenly has his world rocked by a health battle. It shifts him off-center, puts everything into perspective, and strips his walls more than ever. Plus, Nate’s connection with Kris is electric onscreen, with viewers tuning in just to see their chemistry. On Rotten Tomatoes, the series has scored an impressive 80% with the audience, with many drawing comparisons to the show and the six-season NBC drama This Is Us. “The characters, the stories, the backdrop, the heartache, the laughs….all make to make for a perfect series,” wrote one review. “Much like This is Us, this series intertwines the lives of strangers in NYC who become family. Like a good book, I hated for it to end.”
With all that said, while Ripple has yet to be officially renewed for a Season 2, the drama series has become a true underdog hit for Netflix. Ever since its release in December, the series has continued to draw in and captivate fans, often surging up the charts and into Netflix’s Top 10. And while the premise might lean a tad cliché and soapy, it seems to be filling a void Netflix viewers have been looking for.

General Hospital: Jordan’s Tragic Car Crash – Who’s REALLY Guilty Behind the Wheel?
General Hospital puts Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) fighting for her life after her horrific car crash. And we still don’t know exactly who caused the wreck. And there’s just details that are lacking. There are several people who were on the road and may have played a role in causing this accident.
We’re going to talk about who may be at fault for sending Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) and Jordan off the road and into that guard rail. Alright, let’s dive into who is at fault for this terrible wreck.
Jordan and Curtis’ Horrific Crash on General Hospital
All right. So, this week we saw Jordan and Curtis Ashford headed out for a romantic evening when things took a scary turn and they wound up in the same lane as an oncoming car and Jordan yanked the wheel and then they ran into the guardrail and sparks were flying and it was catastrophic. Airbags, all that stuff. Along with Jordan and Curtis, there were three other cars on the road that night that we know of and possibly more than that. And any of them could have played a role in this crash.
So, if you’re keeping track, Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) was on the road heading to Charlie’s to see Gio. Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) was on the way to Lulu Spencer‘s (Alexa Havins) house to see Rocco Falconeri and loved up cousins Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) and Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) were out for a teen joy ride.
So far, it’s unclear who was the other car that was involved in Jordan and Curtis’s crash, and there might have been more than two cars at play. The worst part is, no matter who is at fault, no other cars stopped and checked to see if Jordan and Curtis were all right. They just kept driving for whatever reason until, of course, Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) and Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) rolled up on the wreck.
Was Brook Lynn Involved on GH?
And right now, Brook Lynn and Isaiah are both looking a little sketchy. But one person in particular who stands out to many fans is Brook Lynn. Before she drove, she and Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) were having a glass of wine at the Quartermaine Mansion. They were catching up on Sidwell (Carlo Rota) chatter. And then Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) called to tell Brook Lynn that their son Gio was playing guitar at the Charlie’s reopening. And Dante said Brook Lynn should hurry and get down there to see Gio. So Brook Lynn put down her wine glass and rushed out.
Now, when Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) was looking at the bottle later, there was about half of it left. So, she and Lucy each had about a glass of wine each. That’s not a terrible amount of alcohol, but it is enough to impair judgment and slow reaction time while you’re driving, but that’s not what really stands out about Brook Lynn to fans. It was her behavior at Charlie’s after that that had people wondering because Brook Lynn seemed off. Dante noticed it and certainly viewers noticed it.
BLQ Looks Guilty on General Hospital
Brook Lynn was giving off what many are calling guilty vibes. And of course, she’s a good person, and you’d think that she would stop if she had caused Jordan’s car accident, but maybe Brook Lynn panicked. Plus, she was in a rush, and she desperately wanted to see Gio and maybe didn’t realize how bad the accident was.
But regardless, if Brook Lynn caused the wreck or she witnessed it, obviously, she should have stopped. And we know now that Jordan is certainly not okay. She is in really rough shape. She has one kidney anyway, which isn’t, you know, as many as you need.
And that one is bleeding. And she is now in emergency surgery. Things look dire. So, it is possible that BLQ could be the other driver involved and is responsible, at least in part, for this terrible thing that has happened to Jordan.
Could Isaiah Be At Fault on GH?
But there are other possible culprits to talk about. Next, let’s talk about Isaiah. So, he was on his way over to Lulu’s to check on Rocco Falconeri’s infected hand that was bad. It was a staph infection. You know, it looked bad and he had a fever.
And of course, Lulu didn’t want to take Rocco to GH because Lulu doesn’t want anybody to see the wound or they may realize it is from a gun. So, Isaiah was rushing to get to Rocco and Lulu so he could hurry back to pregnant Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) who was waiting at the cabin.
And when Isaiah did get back to Portia at the cabin, she asked where he was because she called GH and he wasn’t there and he said it was a private client and still it seemed like he was gone maybe a little longer than he should have been. And then Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) called Portia to tell her about the accident.
And she told Isaiah that things don’t look good for Jordan. And Portia mentioned that car accidents can be unpredictable. So, it could easily have been him. He was right there along that same stretch of road. And Isaiah kind of had this reaction. He was staring off into space. And honestly, he seemed a little rattled.

Isaiah Seems Shook on General Hospital
So, we had Brook Lynn looking dodgy on one episode and then we had Isaiah seeming a little rattled on another. So, it’s possible he was the other car involved with Jordan’s. Now, Isaiah is a doctor. He is also a good person and of course wouldn’t leave the scene of an accident knowingly, but maybe he was distracted because he was in a rush and he didn’t realize the other car ran into the guardrail and it was so serious.
Now, I don’t think Isaiah would have driven by if he realized there was a car crash, whether he was involved with Jordan’s wreck or not. And of course, things turn near fatal with the gas leak and Curtis struggling to get her door pried open. So, we have to say Isaiah is a possible other culprit.
Charlotte and Danny Suspicious
Next, of course, we got Charlotte and Danny. Those two seem suspicious from the start because they lied when they called Carly and said they had car trouble. I mean, I guess smashing your car is a form of trouble. That is definitely suspicious. And Danny said he was driving, but maybe that was to protect Charlotte on General Hospital.
If you remember, she told Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) the other day that she’s a really safe driver. But if Charlotte and Danny were playing loud music or they were flirting, they might have been distracted. And Carly flat out asked if they caused the accident Jordan was in, but really didn’t get an answer to that.
Did Sidwell Order The Hit on GH?
So, if it was BLQ or Isaiah or Danny and Charlotte, the crash obviously wasn’t intentional. But there’s a couple of other things to consider. One is that Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) might have sent somebody out to run Jordan off the road. If he found out she was planning to use his grief over Marco Rios‘s (Adrian Anchondo) death as an opportunity to take him down, Sidwell might have had her run off the road.
Plus, he threatened Jordan the other day about Marco’s investigation, and he might have had her followed, and then somebody overheard her talking and Sidwell may have realized that she’s been disloyal this whole time. That would definitely get her marked for death.
Jordan Shares Some Blame Too
And one last thing to consider is this. Jordan herself was clearly a contributor to this car crash. She was not driving carefully. She and Curtis were flirting, gazing at each other, and smooching. That is not good driving. Your eyes belong on the road.
Yet, Jordan kept glancing over at Curtis and he was being very distracting. So, he’s got some culpability, too. He was playing with her thigh and then both thought it was a good idea to kiss while she’s driving down this windy road. So, I do think Jordan and Curtis share some blame out of sheer carelessness.
Things do not look good for Jordan. So, we’ll see if she survives this ordeal. We may not find out until next week if Curtis’ lovely lady lives or dies. And I’m guessing the identity of the other driver stays hidden until later this month, closer to May sweeps, but we’ll see.
