Thank youuuu! Thank you! 💗 You are sooo right about that present! Aaand thank you! 💗 It's going to be unforgettable day for all of us!

Love stories like these. ❤️

Oh my god.... I have so much to catch up to. But I'm here. I have to watch absolutely everything. I'm 30 and waiting for my late birthday present tomorrow BTG!

Just came back from a surprise trip to Paris. It was aaaaamazing. I didn't want to go back to the grey and cold Germany. That's the positive. The negative is... I hit 30 years of age yesterday and now I can't use the excuse that I'm in my 20s for some things anymore. #oldbutgold

Due to just... work and life happening - planning birthdays.... anniversaries, tralalalala, I haven't had time to binge-watch as much, but I am up to April 28th! The appalling duo of Barbara and Travis are attempting to take-over Erica's business. Jackson allowed them to do it just to SPITE Erica. I managed to finally get to the iconic - I wrote the book... comment... that I had only seen previously in a compilation clip on youtube. I LOOOOVED IT. Susan Lucci has been BRINGING it these past few episodes. She is basically saving the show for me. Keeping it dynamic and interesting and recognizable. (Since to me 1989 has been a contrast to 1988 in terms of tone, atmosphere, writing... everything, and not a good contrast I may add). People who underestimate her talents and bash her... don't know what they are talking about. The other storylines (Boring Romeo and Juliet Vs Evil Uncle, Boring Ex-wife in danger action-thriller etc) are not working for me, with the exception of Dixie/Tad/Adam/Brooke, but even that storyline is becoming too repetitive right now. We'll see if they clean it up soon. I am just tired of seeing Dixie cry and talk about God. She should have thought about God before f-cking a married man and getting pregnant by him. ccccccccccccc.mp4

Sadly I haven't had time these past few days - from working to organizing birthdays and events... I haven't had time to check the specials. Thank God I have a person who is updating me on what is going on. The soap opera has been reborn. I hope till the premiere to watch all the specials in one-go.

💗 Ah, I'm excited by your comment... hearing that there is going to be a huge cleanse. The show is so crowded right now, I'm dying for room to breathe. I am on the other side when it comes to Ross and Julie - I think their time is up. But once again - I am a newbie and my impressions are not 100 percent correct. I haven't seen the history of these characters, so it's easy for me to let go of them. I also think Niko and Cecily's time is up too. They should go. And I also don't like Jeremy's ex wife at all. Like at all. She needs to go. As soon as she arrived, she needs to disappear.

I woke to hearing that creature blame Ukraine for starting the war and I'm lost for words. This is the most disgusting this I've seen in my entire life.

Yup. They are being very stupid deliberately these days.

I get the vibe it's a scene of someone cheating or someone finding that they've been cheated on. Maybe I'm wrong. Hahhahaha.

I agree 100 percent. And I would use the same word to describe the pairing of Lanie and David and the writing for it - it's not bad per se, but bland. I actually liked it at the beginning, but... now months into it and so far... I haven't seen anything... that isn't done better in other shows I've watched. And overall they are so predictable and basic. I find the show to be sooo crowded right now. So many characters, so much talking and talking and talking. 1988 had entirely different vibe - especially the first 3-4 months. The scripts were better in my opinion. Right now they desperately need editing and cutting of the dialogue, because it's overwhelmingly busy and sloppy at times. I swear there are moments where Cecily doesn't stop talking and is bla-bla-bla-bla-bla for 4-5 minutes at a time. Maybe some people like that style of Woody Allen-movie non stop talking, but I have a point after I just... start tuning out of the constant unimportant babble. And maybe someone will say - that's the character, but I disagree - you can write someone being chatty without boring the viewers out of their mind. If you write it with wit and originality, you won't have such problems. But again, maybe I'm just tired of the youngsters and need a break from them. Who knows... the fact is I didn't have problem with the teen-storylines in 1988... but in 1989 - now I do. And Julie has been basically written out in 1989. I liked her in 1988, but in 1989 they just lost her and I preferred her written out than turning her into a basic housewife to Niko. It was kinda cringe for a moment.

LOVE IT. Very atmospheric.

Wow, she looks absolutely beautiful. And 55?!! No way. I need to have what she's having.

WTF

And that makes me so happy! 💗 Speaking of Dixie... I just read the news in the BTG topic and I'm like.... Here she comes! 🥳
