True. Like BUFFY, it might not even make it beyond the pilot. Honestly, I would say the same. As a kid, I didn't like Highway outside of the episode you don't like (don't hate me! horror fan here! heh), but Touched just hit different for a boy in the South with its own vibe. And there was Ms. Reese so :) But I agree if they are going to modernize it as they keep the feel good vibe, I would like it to be more thought-provoking well.

The ball, the ball, the ball. One of my favorite memories as a teenager. And I loved anything having to do with a masquerade ball since David Bowie and LABYRINTH. I can see her and Katherine in front of the mirror in my mind's eye. Laura talking about how different they were, but in the moment, they looked so much like sisters. Putting doubts in Katherine's head about if Stefan sees her as an equal or as someone who he could mold into a double of Laura (mind you, Katherine winded up looking like a double of Helena, but still...). And just Katherine putting up a good fight, but realizing that Laura was right. Then running to the parapet. Stefan coming out. And Katherine seeing Stefan and Laura together and stepping backwards, falling as reality hits. In a trap set for Helena, too. Just the gothic-ness of it all.

I admit I saw that and thought of you and my mother. And with you I did expect sarcasm. lol. Honestly, it was just on my mind last week along with TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL. Such a different time on tv then. I'm not sure how to tell my mother of it though. She love, love, LOVED the ground Michael London walked on from LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PARIRIE to HIGHWAY. So I'm not sure how she will feel. She appears to be interested in watching the MATLOCK reboot for example and she felt the same about original MATLOCK. I do agree about feel good shows again. For me, it's period pieces.

You were a better kid than I. lol. I vaguely remember the Ward house, but that sounds like such a beautiful scene to watch, but you know how much I love Laura. :) Before they came back, all I knew Anthony Geary from was the Fat Boys movie back in the day and he was the villain. So watching him as Luke with Genie as Laura...I didn't know who they were, but I do remember how it felt so effortless for them to return. Not jarring at all and I did find them fascinating as this kinda 'action family.' And yes...I always loved that explosion being the credits for years (and seeing Emma Samms...hehe...who my earliest memories of her WERE from her on GH with Robert before my mind associated her with DYNASTY. But I was reeeally young). God, I miss Faces of the Heart. I just loved the angle of a family that had adventures, but was still grounded enough to be a family. Luke with young Lucky. The Spencer dog. Such a nice house. How could you not be drawn to it? I liked and saw why my mother loved them.

All I remember from it was long scenes that I personally loved (but in the minority) that felt like character development, Liz getting to have a romance with Ewen, and that beautiful scene of Alexis tearing Carly apart and holding her accountable for Sonny 'killing' Jax in the plane crash.

Ooooo thank you for the tag!!! I will give it a listen when I get a chance.

The holler I just let out!

Off the top of my head (and at a glance I love that other people said the same)...the reveal of Kristen to the whoooooooooole town of what she did at Susan's Graceland wedding on DAYS. I watched that story of Kristen turning into the villainess I grew to love to hate in real time between school (shoutout to her vs Marlena in the Secret Room...so late to class that day hehe) seasons. The 'I win' Carrie punch to Sami. Marlena's reveal of the green eyes as Satan. ALSO... Y&R Victor, Jack, and the Chair. Y&R Veronica shooting Nikki. Y&R Nikki vs Diane...BOTH fights. OLTL...the reveal of Viki's alters...as a kid...frightening, but I couldn't look away either. Seeing acting in motion. And once Viki became Jean Randolph, I was spellbound. Always my favorite of her alters. OLTL...Dorian getting out of jail due to David Vickers in time for the 4th of July and Viki's face...knowing their rivalry was far from over. Y&R Katherine, Jill, and the attic. GH...Luke and Laura's return. My mother was soooooo hyped. I didn't get it since I didn't know it. But once Laura jumped out of the plane chasing her luggage...I was sold. Also THIS. So well done.

That's not a bad Top 10.

THIS. Same. Speak on it! I miss us two being able to talk about the show.

Well, I feel those of us in the Writers and Director Threads have been calling this for a while now. I just hope that JFP doesn't try to slide on in. I was not aware that Kent was gone. So good. Since that was really the only reason I felt JG has had the job this long. So...I, like @Khan , do not think he will last the year. Good. I would like the chance to come back to 'my' show.

My apologies. It has been a busy couple of weeks of work (with some self-care and dancing) so I just saw this this morning and as the first person to mention this situation in my 'Booting In and Out' Thread, I do appreciate the update on what's going on. So thank you so much Errol. I did the changing of my password again like I did last time when this was going on. So I will see if it is still working fine since it worked fine (even after I accidentally saved my password to stay in without logging in/out) after I did the password change. Which for me it's Chrome...which does update often. I think. In terms of my laptop.

THIS. They were not even invited to the Bravo Upfronts for a show that is 'on pause.' Just smh. Yeah. RHOM was put on pause indefinitely for reasons that made no sense since they had one of the best seasons this year and are STILL having plenty of juicy drama off screen like they usually do on the off seasons.

Very. Teenager stuff or not, some people actually care about Cameron. Or just have experienced that in life. Or both. So seeing it on screeen will make one think of Joss in a non-flattering life. And of course stay that way. Not helped by Joss at the time being all over the screen. It is what it is. And having that opinion is also not that serious. So shrugs Yep. Just MUTE. Perhaps if they acted like an adult relationship rather than slapsticky humor consistently, I might like them. And also not helped by the overall agenda of the show with them. No hatred meant to the actors. That said...I peeked at that cliffhanger. And agree. heehee.

Well given that the NEXT WEEK synopsis does not at all mention it and as I've said in the monthly thread...not everyone comes over here for spoilers which is why I try to keep comments vague for things from articles about storyline there...it's good to see this. Thank you, Dragonflies, for doing God's work for those of us TIRED of waiting on the only B plot this year that had legs before it was abruptly stalled.

Okay, I will give Jacqueta her due. I do find that the actress and Kate McM DO have some good hate chemistry and I enjoyed the 'hooker' reading Willow all the way down. I even rewinded...it was good. Still don't want or need her with Michael, but she gets that little crumb from me. They do and they don't even deserve the amount of story that they get though I've liked the little crumbs they have gotten that I actually like (ADA with anyone NOT Sonny, Jac and the Willow read). But I understand your dislike of MW though I'm saddened at us having one thing not in common. :( IKR!!!! I was really loving the Lucas/Carly cooking scenes that I just watched until I realized that the topic was Val and then MUTE. smh. Same for Cody/Molly again. Sadly.

Well she was long overdue an attempt by them to overexpose Joss in story again. A shame because I have slowly come around to liking her somewhat. Who knew? That she has to you. lol.

I hope not! Then again, this is the show that cast Wes Ramsey (mind you, I liked him on GL and loooved him on CHARMED and LATTER DAYS) out of the parking lot.

HEY, MAX EVANS, HEY!!! LOL. So...two episodes in a row with those two? Chemistry test. Laura deserves better. Ethan is going to figure out Cassius, ain't he?

Well at least she's not the ADA or Jackarta. :)

Very. Maury West got to play it to the hilt and there was nuances again. The fact that Ava/Sonny actually became a potential avenue for Sonny again and the storyline was making it plausible was unexpected. Nina vs Ava. Ava still showing compassion for Kristina/Blaze even as she was the one to destroy Natalia...which really started when Natalia moved into HER potential spot at Sonny's side at the Chase/BLQ wedding (I think it was their wedding). I know, I know. Ava is evil, but Maury was playing those layers like it was nothing. So many little moments in that brief time. And now...she's like how Nina was once PM left...an afterthought.

I still think he's a good actor, but I've been over Billy since he had that podcast. And outside of Billy vs Adam where one or both of them punches the other (cuz both characters do be needing to be hit), Billy has done nothing, but manpain this, manpain that. And once they made his biggest story at one point how he was bound and determined to change the name of Katherine's company so he can feel relevant...not his mother, but HIM...in order for that character to have a story...yeeeeah rest his butt. JT still has his moments...but MM for this win on that. That's sad to hear because I'm holding off on starting this week. Sounds like they lost momentum again. Le sigh.

I mean...I can understand that. The last time she was truly relevant was when PM brought her back to her roots.

There are only two versions of Y&R Billy I had any mind to be attracted to...the current one is not one of them. Talk about a character who needs to be rested...

4-24 I would say that it was another good week. Even if I sadly was too tired from work to see all of Ivy's exposure. That said...I continue to feel that B&B has done a good job with pivoting from the popular (for me) Taylor/Deacon/Sheila storyline. And the other stories are now doing their turns, which is kinda cool. When Ivy comes back, I just feel she will be coming back to get payback on Daphne. So either scheming to destroy Daphne/Carter's marriage. Or dare I say it...a Daphne/Carter/Ivy triangle? In any case, I hope Ms. That's-Not-Proper comes back soon. Sorry, I was side-eying Electra. All of this exposure of Ivy's manipulations and she's still getting kissy-face with RJ. It almost makes it not worth the mess. On one hand. On the other hand, I found it juicy and messy. And I forgot to say the other day, but the new story with Dylan is intriguing. It was great to see more of Logan vs Forrester and the launch of Logan. The whole time though I was saying SHUT UP, ERIC! Over there whining like a baby. And Brooke I just kept saying BITCA every time she opened her mouth. After all, I thought she wanted to have WAR with Katie? What happened with that?? In any case, I did start to wonder what Logan's next move will be because I feel the next move should be a real fashion showdown. And I see the NEXT WEEK promo had that beat being played. So...fingers crossed. I still can't believe how enjoyable B&B continues to be. So many plotlines going on and rotating between them mostly nicely as of late.
