Weak people need to be in a clique to feel safe. 

Guys, me and my husband were on a little pause in our watch from episode 1 experiment... and we've now began watching 1 to 2 hours every night in front of the TV. What is happening right now - Stephanie just found out Morgan is pregnant with Ridge's baby... August 2000 and let me say WOW, what a strong period for the show. The whole month of july and august have been amazing. So much action with Macy dying...CJ and Amber's drama, Brooke attacked, Morgan exposed... the show is addicting and for the first time I really can't wait for the day to end sit on the couch and play 4 or 5 episodes. 

Bill Bell and Irna Phillips

We all know about Stephanie and Brooke, Alexis and Krystle... What are the BIGGEST, most dramatic and most year-spanning character feuds in soap operas. Which ones are the best?

Something's up with Ru. She doesn't look the same Ru in her expressions, the energy is lacking and the eyes are empty, like she is forcing herself to smile. I agree that this is the worst premiere episode. It just felt... boring and stale.

Nearly 210 minutes of unedited Bill Bell interview.

2005 is the last somewhat good year 5/10

1993 is the last QUALITY year where everything is 10/10

I have no idea who he is, but he's gorgeous  

Looks AI.

I saw the finale yesterday and my 6th sense of Monica was right. She is disgusting.

Who is dressing these people. The wardrobe is like from 20 years ago. And the hairstyles of most characters are wrong. How much is the budget of this [!@#$%^&*]? 500 dollars?

Second chances are overrated.

Amazing. Wow. Thank you.

This is the true gem. 

Why are they making Dollar Bill this loser... This character is becoming the new Liam.

My take on SLC

1. Heather - annoying, low level secretary of the current mean girl, whoever she is. She tries to seem real or like some kind of a rebel, but she is as basic as they come.

2. Meredith - HBIC - vindictive and kinda evil, but how can you not love her. Gives me Joan Crawford vibes.

3. Lisa - narcissistic, histrionic and borderline mess... this woman is so toxic, the show would not be the same without her. I can't imagine this being in your house.

4. Monica - fake, kissy-assy to the HBIC, selling her childhood trauma and mother for pennies. Even if your mother is as disgusting as hers is... the way Monica talks to her is even more disgusting. These two women are the same, but one is younger. Crazy and bipolar. Amazing cast though - she is messy and will stir the pot for years to come.

5.Angie - I just think this woman is sad. She is actually the only one I think is completely removable from the show. With or without her, nothing will be much different. I don't like how they artificially inseminated her into the show, doesn't fit. But her husband is so cute, it's hard to believe he is not gay. 

6.Mary fu-king Cosby - the REAL HBIC - Queen Mother of the Universe - the type of person who will kill you and eat you on a desert island. Joking aside, I LOVE HER. 

Are there more... I forgot... 

OH.

7. Whitney - wanna be Regina George, but actually cheap [!@#$%^&*]-stirrer, fake as f'ck. But I love her drunk. When she is drunk she becomes Little Girl and is on fire.

P.S Mary Cosby is the gift that keeps on giving. That woman makes me laugh so much, I LOVE HER. I know she is controversial. BUT... I just can't lie. I love her.

Salt lake city is like a gold soap opera. I love it. So much drama. 

No.

I never heard of Melba Moore... but I like that name... it sounds like a 30s villain.

I don't want to shame her (re: surgery) either, but it really did change everything about her. She was one of the most stunning women in daytime and she just.... didn't see it in herself. Then she gained some weight in her face and it worked, but she did more work and it changed. The last return (as a blonde) felt like a caricature of Taylor, and it was so off-putting, and it seems her take on social media is that it wasn't what she wanted, either.

Allen REVIVED Taylor, yes. By that point I wasn't watching, but also looked for her scenes and felt she did an amazing job with some really s**t material.

She really did and she added so much characterization that I know wasn't written for her, since B-B isn't capable of it. That's why I hinted that she seemed like from another show. It felt strange to have her act out this bizarre crap Bradley was writing. But she made every bad script work and made Taylor SO likeable. I believe if she continued on, she would have gotten Emmy in a year or two. Maybe they knew that.  

Guys I've been trying to get into this show and I just can't... Is season 1 just bad or... is this the quality overall. It's just boring to me. BUT what I see from clips... the later seasons look amazing. Are they?

Hunter Tylo during her last range of stint was so unwatchable; it was almost as if she forgot about to act. And I hated that for her. Krista Allen was wonderfully cast but treated horrible.

These two have always been head-scratchers, as well as recasting Beth Logan, too.

Sadly it's true. Something happened to Hunter through the years and her acting really was becoming laughable. The hysterical hand gestures and head moving. I don't want to plastic surgery shame, since I love her and I LOVE THE OG Taylor 1990-2002... but... I think after she came back from the dead in 2005...  the dead came back with her, if you know what I mean. That face struggled to convey emotion. Krista really REVIVED Taylor back to living.

Call me crazy, but even with the new chin...
