Ah! For all of Frank's flaws and faults...and he has several with his petty self...one thing that I don't take away from him is his ability to have a rotating amount of sets at all times. Even if some are better than others, you do get a feel that Port Charles is a city. And he still can manage to have characters go to another part of the world and it feels like another part of the world, too. And every summer, the viewers do get a pool set and we get to drool over the hotties cuz just like his former writer partner Ron Carlivati, Frank does find ways to get his male cast shirtless. I really love that after our discussion last year about redressing sets in order to cover the set issues that they have started to do just that. That said...I'm long past ready to see the university set. Hopefully with the writing shift, we get just that.

Well Jacqueline tried to do the same thing (integrate into the group), but Mia stopped her at every turn. Season 7 was a good showing for her...and Battle of the Receipts at the reunion will always live rent-free in my head...but she should have never reduced herself to Mia's lapdog afterwards. That doomed her. That said...I love me some Jassi, too. She is quick with it. She can messy. And while her attempts at moments fell flat for the most part this season, I did see how she was subtly pot stirring on AND off screen (loved that her name came up several times during the season about talking to people off screen). And she was just overall likeable...and I also want her back next season. Not even going to lie...I went ahead and bookmarked that picture on Twitter. Outside of the one who looks like RHoDubai Sara...I can't tell them apart. Hahahaha

Given how much of a factor she was from Season 7 to Season 9, I admit that I am shocked at how irrelevant Messy Mia turned out to be. And no, she was not mentioned at all. We only saw her in brief flashbacks to the reunion before her walk off and she was in the background. If you had told me this would happen, I would say nope. Now...I'm more shocked at how Candiace is not factoring at all and she was on longer. Same. The fact it's the only HW show that I'm caught up on and I stayed that way (faulty technology and all) is telling on how great it is as a show. I am hard pressed to find stuff to watch outside of soaps now...when did that happened? lol. And if I had to pick a Bravo show to watch...it honestly would be the just-returned BELOW DECK DOWN UNDER, VANDERPUMP RULES reboot...both of which have OF cast members this, and the incoming LADIES OF LONDON and SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY. Heck, I have a desire to watch Riley's show before the HW shows this past year not named RHOM. I still will...I've enjoyed slowly playing catch up on OC (I'm two seasons behind)...but it used to be a spoil of riches with the HW shows.

So I hear. I can't believe that Mariah's story is STILL going on for two years, no resolution, and no one even knows what happen...?

Well...are we we sure someone hasn't? ;)

Since GH don't want to use them, good to hear. Thank you for the tip.

That is where I am leaning as well. As has been mentioned, Jordi has good chemistry with Mrs. Jacobs. And I actually like Grayson with Ashley. Granted I think Ashley works bests in supporting, it is nice to see improvement in her love life since the writers want to make fetch happen. And...now there's a possibility of that. Heck, it has even lit Derek up some...who I also STILL think will go psycho. Honestly, part of me thinks he's lying about the committee tbh. And it's an easy thing for anyone to follow up on. Derek saying that about Grayson just make me think red herring. At least for now. Now you know you just don't love Dani. ;P She has mellowed considerably over the last 8 months from her days of Annie Get Your Gun. And while she still irks me with her need to run to Bill these days, she really does come across normal. The writers and Karla found a balance for Dani at last. Still love your opinions as always. :) hehe. Definitely better written than Mariah and Tessa on Y&R, but I think I'm coming around to what everyone else says about them. It's not that I don't like them. I especially love those brief moments when Madison's goofy flag flies because it's very Gemini-coded. But it could be written so much better and given how much I like the writing on this show...how do they keep missing the mark with them? We should have seen Madison's mother (played by a soap legend). I liked we got to see Madison dealing with Chelesa's other side...but jumping to marriage? And of course...the staple of teen shows...the long-distance relationship dilemma? I mean...it's too disjointed. Especially looking at the other couple stories going on in that age range.

Same. While I agree, it doesn't help that Frank Valentini makes creating all kinds of sets that don't feel stagnant look effortless over on GH. As the other debatably good show airing right now, it makes the set issues on BTG even more noticeable.

OMG lol.

And while I'm thinking about it...while I think Grayson will be involved in the blood ring, I don't think he's the Impaler, but per his description in articles, he will be a red herring to the identity but involved somehow.

I'm very happy that after that meh Monday, the show bounced back quickly.

Which is such a shame because the potential has been there multiple times since he has returned. I agree that I do love seeing Ric in a good place with his family. Who would have thought?

Yeah if they wanted to do something with Ric and Liz, they would have when it was him vs Lucky vs Jason at the same time 2 years back or last year when it looked like an intriguing Liz/Ric/Ava triangle could form. They both deserve more.

Hehe. YAASS

SHUT UP, EVA!!! Ted has EVERY right to air Silk Press Sheila out in front of everybody.

Hehe. Probably both.

They must be on break.

Now you know they are getting ready for that wacky reunion with Brad.

Him and Jake. It makes no sense at all. See? I wasn't regularly watching at that point and that sounds great. And it could have run for a while. Heck...Jake and Charlotte when it was started could have let back to this as well.

It's the even lying ass Mia for me. lol.

Hehe. Yeah. So the writers now trolls the audience with updates of what they are doing off-screen.

Yep. Pretty much.

Well it's not the first time this show has trolled the audience. Where are Liz's kids again?

Granny stays busy.

Oh, trust. You are not alone and I pointed that out when I posted this morning. Almost a week to get back to Anna after that great cliffhanger on a Tuesday? Tracy interrupting Jason/Britt about to have sex last month...off-screen and mentioned the next episode? Jason/Britt and him saving her. Off-screen again. It has been very disjointed. And it's VERY noticeable. I literally had to sit and think...'did I miss any episode?' for once.
