I thought something was shiesty about the teacher. I thought when Maxine checked out her credentials she was going find something on her.

I became suspect when she said she wanted PRIVATE sessions.

IMO, I see why the teacher asked for Private Sessions because the teacher was speaking with Kelly and before the poor child could answer, Maxine was answering the questions and I don't feel the teacher could properly evaluate the child with Maxine butting in everytime she asked Kelly a question.

I think the teacher is a bit extreme with only offering the full scholarship for these two semesters and basically forcing Kenny and Maxine to make a rush and haste decision. If the teacher is really interested in helping Kelly then IMO, I believe the scholarship should be open or at least give them more than 24 hours to think it over......because that is their daughter and as parents you hate to let go.....

I did NOT appreciate Bird and Terri's attitude about Max's locs. Although many people do share their opinions but it's not as if Max lets her hair go wild. I mean she has manicured locs

Terri better have been dreaming about that mailman especially cos he's not cute AND especially because she cannot go out like that. She needs to get it together.

About the teacher, they need to watch her. That was so shady how she said the scholarship was available but next semester they have to apply and alllllll that extra stuff. If she truly wanted to help Kelly, she'd have it available when they were ready for her to attend.

I don't trust the teacher either. I don't think Max and Kenny should've let Kelly (po' Kelly) go.

I'm also not feeling:
1) the delivery guy. NO! He's not cute.
2) Terri--what's up w/her and her hair? I, too, was hoping it was a dream she was having.
3) Lem's bare face----ughhhhhh!

This season, to me, is just ok. Hopefully it will end w/a bang.

[StrangeFruit]

The teacher: I thought her proposal was a little shady. Hopefully Max and Lenny made the right decision. I did think however, that Max was showing a bit of jealousy, but that his her baby and she can do that.

Lem: Grow a back the beard and the hair. I'm still trippin over that pre-show party from last week where he sounded like he was a switch hitter.
Oh and he needs to tell "Old Blood" what's going on b/c he'll kill him and family.

Bird: Her character is irritating to me. I didn't like what she said about Max's locs. But as a sistah with a head full of locs (and I don't think they're dreadful either) I've been insulted time and time again.


Terri: I hope it was a dream; otherwise, she is treading on the hoe road.

The delivery man: I thought he had a funny shaped head, but was aight looking-not androidish.

All I can say is that Lem's new look has left him looking like a monkey. I was expecting someone to toss him a banana at the Going Away Dinner for Kelly.

Terri is tripping really hard.....Therapy....Fast Quick and in a Hurry...pls. do not delay.

LMAO what Bird said about Loomis on accident. Not so appropriate but that was her opinion. I also wasn't feeling how the beautician in Bird's shop was talking to her....had that been someone at my beauticians shop talking to my beautican like that......ummm well it wouldn't be too pretty. BTW, gotta go....need to make my hair appt. for Saturday

I couldn't quite figure out who Lem reminded me of until I read your post #1 Leading Lady, but you hit the nail on the head with the monkey thing. I think he looks awful this season.

Dat dayum Kenny know he can hold a grudge. . .just because your mama only had custody of one child does not mean you don't have to not see her for 20 years. All this time I thought his mom was dead. . .


And Damon's birth mama showing up. . .thought she was dead too. What is with these coming out of the dark mamas. Next thing you know Lynette will come back.

[stardusttwin]

Cut Kenny some slack, he was left with the abusive parent, and mom moved to another city. Its hard to be rational when you're the one that's left behind. I'd be a little angry too.

Its cool how Ahmad was able to get Kenny to see things differently. But I'm tired of Ahmad being in 9th grade (if he's so dang smart why he keep repeating the same class)!

I don't understand why Lem just didn't tell Baron from the beginning that the FBI was trying to sqeeze him - Baron would have taken care of it...now his behind is in deep and Lem is going to be in trouble.

Can't wait to see next week, Terry and Damon's mom-looks like its on with the popcorn! Ding, ding, ding! [From what I remember they never said that she was dead, just that she was a chronic alcoholic and spent a lot of time in a sanitarium]

Ok, I saw the show last night, but of course you know I can't stand Lem and his hairless lip, but last night I got fixated on his upper lip. It looked as if it had dry skin there or some razor bumps. I was like this is not good at all.

As for Kenny, I thought his mom was dead as well. Also did anyone see the credits when the show came on? It listed Hill harper as F. Hill Harper..... I'm like where did the F come from.

1. I wanted to go get him some cocoa butter or something for that lip.

2. I peeped the F too and thought maybe it would be a different actor. . . ummm I never even knew Kenny had a brother.

You thought the same thing I thought. I thought it was going to be a differnt Hill Harper. So now I'm wondering who is the other Hill Harper. I didn't know Kenny had a brother either, you would have thought that he was an only child. Something else I don't get is why has Max never met his mom. I mean I understand that Kenny has issues with abandonment by her, but Max was sending all thouse pics of the family through the years. I don't understand why the mother didnt reach out. I mean she had those pics displayed all proudly.

I guess he is the only Hill Harper.
I tripped off of the mom never meeting Max as well. My boyfriend tried to explain it to me but I wasn't hearing it.

When are the reruns again? I missed the ep. last night.

[stardusttwin]

I'm so proud of Terri-she was the bigger woman and gave the ring back and didn't answer the phone when Damon (finally) called. His mother had some nerve though-D could have sent a "dear john" letter,email, txt message - sending your mom to retrieve your ring?? punk move. For some reason I don't think this is the last we've heard of Damon. But I'm sick about how they've turned Damon so trifling just to write him out of the series...the writers should have done him better (and did a new opening instead of just slicing him out).


Does anyone know the name of the song/artist that was playing tonite when Kenny and Maxine were together (at the end)??

Girl I clapped when she did not answer. I have BEEEN THERE!!! I know right? WUSS!!! Sent his mama to get his ring back. He should have asked for it when he pissed in her plant. Yeah but I do hate how they had to make him seem low down and trifling this season.

I can't even watch the opening because it looks STOOOOPID.

I was wondering about the song as well.

I like that Jully Black song. I might have to check her out.

Re: Max's speech. I damn near fell off the couch when she did not even say Kelly's name. Now here is my thing, she is at boarding school but that does not mean we have forgotten her. SHe was just on 2 weeks ago. Her not saying Kenny's name as well bothered me. I know he was not there but she knows how her husband is.

Oh and her boss is a cutie but I can sense a LILA in the air. . .

The Muslim woman I really wanted Terri to be able to help her. How sad.

I was thinking the same thing about Max not saying Kelly's name. When she looked over and saw teh empty chair where Kenny should have been was sad........but like you Soror...I see something ugly going down with Max and Malik....and yes the brother does look good.

That's her name...LILA, I couldn't think her name last night for nothing.
