I am loving how Nola's fingerprints are all around everyone's drama and nobody still knows it. That kind of viewer knowing, characters don't... is a favorite storytelling technique of mine. Of course when it's done tastefully, which in this case it is.

Tuesday 

Brooke RULED today. She needed to b-tch slap that rapist! And finally someone in this effing show said - She was altered and YOU KNEW what you were doing. You were in your right mind! FINALLY. Brooke was giving me 1992-1993 era Brooke with that attitude and energy - I love her when she is not Ridge's cheerleader or the SFTV. 

And the rapist crying....- YEAH, CRY! That's the least you can do. 

And what I was saying weeks ago, Brooke said it - You didn't stop to ask her... WHY WAS SHE THERE...

I need to see THIS BROOKE back every day. 

THANK GOD it was finally said. 

@Errol Thank you! 

These ratings do look concerning.

Given that I watched knowing Margo's outcome, I wonder for you watching it the first time if the motive of primary suspect seems valid (name withheld to avoid spoilers)?

I get why that person was a suspect, but it doesn't seem like what Margo did to that person was reason enough to kill her. 

It will be interesting to see. I already think I know... but they may surprise me. 

Why did I have to look around youtube... I am now scared to sleep... really scared. I remember watching this movie in the past...

Thanks

I'm of course more worried for my friend.

He's the one I talked to you a while back. The one I went to homecoming with.

May His Soul Rest In Peace.

I am sending my condolences to you and your friend.

Did anyone see RJ today? Holy hell, what a slab of beef.

 I can't wait. Thanks for the heads up. 

I am not ready to let Margo go! I have grown to love her and the actress that plays her. SOOOO SAD.

Making him look stupid? Then the rest is the Shelia and Liam show with a non rape story but a pregnancy. I've read the spoilers.

YOU ARE FINALLY BACK! My heart can rest now... This forum was SOOOOO odd and empty without you dear! Never leave us again!  Sorry for the offtopic, but can't contain my happiness.

Monday.

I am catching up.

JMW gave a performance to LIVE for. She almost saved the bad material and really in that moment I was rooting for Steffy. Through the years JMW has improved and improved and now I can say she really is a true gem. I would love for some other writer to give her wings and make Steffy likeable and rootable. But yes - I loved her expressions and the way she was handling it with true RAW emotion - this is what an actor does.

Finn - Boy, oh, boy. What a complete waste of time... I get that some people get off on him and think his abs are hot and etc, but that little basic Ken Doll is like watching paint dry. Such uninteresting, lack of emotion, lack of expression "acting". And the scene had potential which some other actor could have played off from JMW's energy. She REALLY needs a better scene companion than this. When he stands there and makes the sour face, it's almost like Steffy is talking to a stage prop. It's almost like a monologue. Recast is BADLY needed in my opinion. He is just unbearable to watch - in the Academy I studied acting, this would not get even accepted  to... try. 

Overall I think JMW gave the strongest scene of the month so far. The other parts I find very underwhelming and going into the genre of absurd and comical, which is... not my cup of tea. I found Li and Sheila's scene... shamefully bad and really really cheap. These types of animation movie fights do no interest me.  

This is what I expect next.
