Source: Pacific Press / Getty 2017 has been the year of television telling stories about what’s happening in the world today. The latest hot topic to snag a series based on issues plaguing the nation is the Black Lives Matter movement. According to Deadline , AMC is developing a yet-to-be-named drama series that will focus on the movement, which protests police brutality and the poor treatment of Black people in America. The new show will be based on Washington Post reporter Wesley Lowery ’s bestselling nonfiction book They Can’t Kill Us All: Ferguson, Baltimore, and a New Era in America’s Racial Justice. The book, which was published by Little, Brown & Company in 2016, gives an in-depth look at how decades of racially biased policing in segregated neighborhoods, sub par schools, crumbling infrastructures, and scarcity of jobs, ultimately led to the explosive police brutality cases in Ferguson (Mike Brown), Cleveland (Tamir Rice), Baltimore (Freddie Gray) and the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement. But just like any other crusade in which Black people try to liberate themselves from oppression, BLM has been deemed a dangerous terrorist group by people like Donald Trump and those who support him. Thanks AMC for taking a risk to tell a story that has yet to be told. Will you be watching? [ione_media_gallery src=”https://globalgrind.cassiuslife.com” id=”4186970″ overlay=”true”]

Will Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge be able to put their beef aside and play nice for the sake of their friends? That was one of the big questions on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 12 Episode 10 , and one that seemed like it was going to be dragged on for eternity. With the ladies dodging each other practically all season long, it has become apparent that the producers must be struggling for footage to fill the episodes. When the episode got underway, Vicki was chatting with her daughter on the phone and boasting about the birthday party she was planning for herself. It’s a bit sad to be planning your own birthday party, but it’s not like Vicki has a lot of friends right now. In fact, she could probably count her loyal friends on the one hand. That’s what happens when you decide to cause trouble amongst your group. Her party idea sounded like something Vicki would come up with. She wanted to wear red while everyone else wore black and white. She also wanted to sit down for a roast and let every single person in the room air their thoughts on her. People would legit pay to watch that play out because Vicki would probably eventually go ham and run out of the event with a bottle of wine, but did this seem like a good way to put her beef aside with the ladies? Briana did not seem to think so, and Vicki questioned why. Apparently, Vicki was under the impression everyone would say nice things about her. As laughable as that is, props to Briana for thinking about her mother’s feelings. If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online , you know that Vicki has been a nightmare. When she’s not bickering with her friends, she’s finding new people to quarrel with, but that’s just who she is. We’ve watched her do it multiple times over the years, so why would she change now? Meanwhile, Lydia and Meghan went on a hiking trip and got candid about IVF treatment. Meghan revealed that it was a painful thing to go through. Lydia questioned whether it would be a good idea to freeze some of her husband’s sample in case she wanted more kids down the line. Here’s the big conundrum: Lydia’s husband is getting a vasectomy, so it would be difficult for them if they were to decide to have kids down the line. These ladies know they need to cover all bases before making a decision, so we’re thankful they know that. The talk then turned to Meghan’s feud with Kelly. Lydia revealed that she was Team Kelly in this battle because Meghan went out of her way quiz Kelly about having a boyfriend. So, Lydia’s take on it was that Meghan was the one in the wrong. “Meghan has no problem cutting down Kelly’s marriage and then she’s mad at Kelly for doing the same thing in return,” Lydia explains in her confessional. “I’m trying to just hold up a mirror to Meghan and say, ‘You know, I see Kelly’s side too.'” Naturally, Meghan flipped the eff out and revealed that Kelly was the one who was trying to cause all of the beef between them. “With what? Are you f–king kidding right now? This is so upsetting, Lydia,” Meghan screams, holding back tears. “That you would even think that’s normal for a person to attack your marriage.” “No, I feel like you attacked hers,” Lydia replied. Realizing she had upset Meghan, Lydia apologized but claimed that she still understood why Kelly lashed out and that it was not her fault. The awesome thing about Lydia is that she just says it how it is, and that shows how loyal she is. She knows she needs to be honest about things or she will end up in the center of the drama. Then, Tamra got a phone call from none other than Vicki! Yes, it was time to end the feud once and for all. Vicki did apologize for all the drama and asked if they could rebuild and move on. Tamra agreed, but stressed in a confessional that she did not know whether she was making the right decision. It’s perfectly understandable that she would be apprehensive. All of the drama with Vicki has been too much to handle for her, but it does seem like Vicki is ready to grow up. Tamra decided to call up Shannon to find out her take on it. She was not impressed. “F–k Vicki,” she said. Shannon had some drama of her own to deal with. It was her birthday, and she was reminiscing about how great things were a year ago. Now, her relationship with David was not in a good place and she questioned how long she could go on. David, however, felt like Shannon was the one to blame. He admitted that he lets her get on with it when she’s stressed or anything because that’s just how he is. His other issue was that Shannon was still obsessing over Vicki. The rest of the episode was all about Vicki’s birthday and it ushered in the return of Gretchen and Lizzie. But the drama was surprisingly started by Ricky. He opened up about witnessing Eddie making out with a guy. Oh, the drama. Vicki opted to keep out of it and that was the first big signal that she was ready to move on with her life as opposed to listening to rumors and adding stuff on to them. What do you think about Vicki’s new outlook? Are you on board? Hit the comments! View Slideshow: 14 Shadiest Real Housewives Hook-Ups of All-Time

On Bachelor in Paradise Season 4 Episode 9 , the fun in the sun came to an end south of the border, but were any couples left standing? What dramatic events would make or break some of the love-struck castaways as their final days in Paradise drew to a close? When the episode got underway, we quickly found out that the couples could leave separately, together or have a date with the opportunity of hitting up a fantasy suite. Watch Bachelor in Paradise Season 4 Episode 9 Online Lacey and Daniel were up first, and it became clear as day that there was something between them. Lacey wanted to spend the night with Daniel. “I’m not done with you yet. Come to your king.” Yes, he actually said that, and we at THG think he’s hilarious. He made a sordid joke about Lacey getting ready for the “Fourth of July” in his pants. Yes, she liked the joke. She’s a keeper. Jack wanted to leave Paradise with Christen hand in hand, and Christen freaked out over it. “I can’t leave here as a couple,” she says. “We are acquaintances right now!” Um, that’s not a nice way to put it, and all of a sudden we feel like these two will not stand the test of time. Jack was confused, but it proved the pair had very different stances on the relationship. “Up until this point, we’ve talked about the weather,” she says about the whole incident, before Jack leaves on his very own mobile. Yes, they are so soo over. Raven and Adam decided that the fantasy suite could be a fun way to get to know each other a little better, which is pretty great. Adam loves how “easy things are with her.” Yeah, he totally said that. Things between Dean and Danielle quickly went south. Danielle wanted to hit up the fantasy suite, but then Dean revealed that Kristina was still on his mind. Yikes. He revealed he was in love with Kristina and had to part ways with her for that reason. “I literally hate myself right now,” he says. He may have tried to be a player, but he proved he has a heart. That’s the main thing we’re getting from his actions. Dom called time on the relationship with Diggy, but never really gave much of a reason, so hopefully get an update on them later. When it came to Robby and Amanda, it seemed like everything was going well … until Amanda started crying. “Do you really see that?” she asked after he claimed they could work together out of Paradise. Robby started wailing as she let him down. Maybe she did not want to rush into things after what happened with her and Josh Murray. Either that, or she’s holding out hope to become the Bachelorette. Lacey and Daniel went on their first official date, and it was evident they were falling for each other. They decided to leave Paradise as a couple and indulged in some fun in the fantasy suite. When Taylor and Derek went on their date, she said she needed to know the sex was good before dropping the L-bomb. Dean was happy enough to show her his moves, so they made their way to the fantasy suite like it was a race. Raven and Adam questioned whether they could really be a thing and have sex, but we never got an answer straight away. Chris was joined by Jaimi, Diggy, Dominique, Emily, Haley, Jasmine, Alexis, Jack Stone, D. Lo, Christen, Dean, Danielle M., and Kristina. Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson were then brought out together. The big controversy was over, and they were able to move on with their lives. Dean revealed that it was difficult for him to see Kristina because he felt so strongly for her, but they were not together. It did seem like there was the potential for them to meet up, but we don’t know as of yet if they will. But then Danielle revealed that Dean called her ONE HOUR after leaving Paradise. Did he feel bad, or did he put on a show for the cameras? Amanda then revealed that she gave Robby a chance but, it was just not working and the twins tried to accuse him of cheating. As if that was not bad enough, Lacey revealed that Daniel said his feelings were a lie and he put on a show for the cameras. Chris played an audio recording from the morning after their final date and Daniel said some damning things. “Lacey might like me a little bit more than I like her. I could never change my Facebook status to ‘in a relationship with Lacey.’” What a snake. But Raven and Adam are still together, so there’s that. It’s been a long road for them, but at least their feelings are real. Derek then asked Taylor to marry him. So, at least we have one proposal. That’s a wrap on Bachelor in Paradise Season 4. What did you think of it? Sound off below. View Slideshow: 13 Bachelor in Paradise Headlines We Thought About Using For This Ridiculous Story
