I haven't started the week yet so that's good to hear. I can always count on the Abbott Thanksgiving because Ashley is back and will give good bitca to Diane. So good. lol. And ugh at Summer. Those two are so one step forward, multiple steps back. He really is. I can't hate. Re: Mr. Peck. Like KS over on GH, MTS has started to dress marvelously again and I love to see it. Not wax!!!! lol. I didn't cotton to Michael's white hair at first, but now I'm used to it. Now his loss of beard on the other hand...grrrr.

Yep. James is currently in the spot old Spencer, Emma, and Violet used to be in with Frank. But at least I have learned to love James. He was definitely given more development this year versus last year when I loathed the Bebe's kids.

No, you didn't. kidding! 😜 It's not as extreme as it is on say Maurice Benard, but you do have a point that they didn't seem to care when it was unclear if Cole would be continuing so it does stand out now that he is.

I agree. Even this return, Lois has had strong principle. That's why the voice teacher storyline rang hollow. So her back with him...no. I mean if he changed...maybe. I'm surprised they didn't put her with Drew before his dark turn.

Is IT tomorrow? Because I'm considering tuning in. Well when you have dirty minds. Definitely better than Black Johnson.

lol. I knew someone would say it.

Oh, I see. Really? lol. I would say swindle myself because I just don't see Laura doing it. She was taken aback and clearly annoyed when Cyrus returned at Lulu's bedside when the Lulu Awakens storyline first started. And the show (and GF) still play a level of mistrust between Laura and Cyrus.

The only reason Carter is being featured more is because of Beyond The Gates. Yep. Pretty much. Sad, but true.

lol

Oh, yes. Eddie has been looking like a nice snack.

You mean people on the show, or people here. Because I don't think people here think that. Yes, the window fall...the gift that keeps giving. I mean...could it be a different vibe with Ted King and Rena Sofer though. I still can't think of anyone on canvas to put her with outside of Ned. I would go with a new character who has a connection to someone else on canvas in a past relationship way.

Amen.

See? Now that makes sense if true. Thanks @titan1978. lol

Now that I've caught up...OMG YES. So far, it has overall been worth the 4 year wait. AB is making the role her own in such a short time, and I feel so invested. Now...yes...where's Laura? lol

I thought those were really well-done scenes and I can see that.

11-26 YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was worth the wait, @Antoyne!!! Whoever made mention of Ric having those restaurant guest as witnesses needs to get a prize!!! This trial is making a great A story. And Ric played Kristina like a fiddle. I hollered. I clapped at my tv. And worth the wait. And the coup de grace...him with the verbatim words of Kristina and the witness reveal. That was perfection and I had to rewind. And how he laid it all out, the logic of it was well-played. Whether he winds up with Ava or Liz, can we keep Ric? Cuz Mr. Hearst sold those scenes flawlessly. Lulu's storyline was a solid B story. And you know what? Add me on to the suspicion of disbelief. It was night and she was in a hoodie so I could see Cody not immediately not recognizing her. And yes, they even have chemistry, too. I wouldn't mind a Cody/Lulu/Dante triangle though I would rather a Sam/Dante/Lulu one. It's not even the first time with Lulu given Milo and Valerie. And the dialogue with her telling half-truths to Cody was so Spencer-coded. AB sold that to the hilt for me, and I do see her as Lulu. And FINALLY!!! One of her actual immediate family members knows that she's gone. I, of course, wanted it to be Laura (at least they mentioned where Laura is right now), but I will take Lucky. And even a little misdirection with the nurse saying Cyrus was the last to see her. I like Lucky and Liz seem to be teaming up for the Sam's death storyline. As long as Liz still has a part of it. But given the above misdirection, it makes me wonder. GO 'HEAD, KS!!! She looked GOOD. Even if I don't care much for Sasha, Deception gals gotta stick together! So I didn't mind those scenes. Since those scenes are Michael-coded, it continues to be a solid C plot, too. Fingers crossed, they keep on with the building momentum.

Oh? YASSSSS, DADDY!!!

THIS. Taste.

So I finally read that SOD interview with JG. All I have to say is...poor Sally. And I'm side-eying anything with Lily.

Amen.

11-25 See? This week is off to a strong start. Darn it...go 'head Iago Michael. Working behind the scenes. I wasn't even sure if I was going to like it, but CD playing fake is exactly what I was expecting Michael to be. Watching those Michael/Drew scenes I couldn't help, but wonder if he would record the conversation. So lol well-played. He wanted his revenge and how he's going about it is making up for the abruptness of the storyline vanishing. LULU!!! I liked her escape. I continue to feel her storyline is coming across so much better for me than Lucky's return did. However, I see what everyone else was mentioning. I don't see Laura at all giving Cyrus that much authority over her daughter even if she forgave him for the bombing of the Floating Rib. Speaking of...where the frak IS Laura?? Yes, I'm side-eying. AB is making a great recast of Lulu for me so far. Suits, suits everywhere and...lol. That said...good start to the trial. I am surprised that Diane isn't going against Ric, but that's okay. This lawyer is doing good. I also noticed that flashback from Kristina's POV...and yet she is STILL going through with this? But Ric getting the coda...hehe...GET HER, RIC!!!

Very natural. And it started off like it might go that way with everyone POV, but alas.

I wish Monica was on screen, but I like she is at least referenced. I'm not sure how to handle her long-term though.

Indeed. Maybe that's what I was remembering as well. Because during the strike writing, it turned out Austin and Mason's boss was revealed to be Cyrus while he was still in jail and a total rewrite since the original hints of their boss was a woman.
