Amen.

But you said it all so much more perfectly than I. LOVE.

^THIS.

Not one move. And there THE WHOLE TIME.

*gasps at the tea that he's been writing as co-writer from the moment PM's exit was announced* So let's be clear...since he was announced back, Chris's been HW-ing again the whole ENTIRE time? Which means that tweet by Alley Mills was on the money?

Oh..?

Indeed. A mess.

Very. lol. While Sonny probably does not at all deserve a happy ending, chances of that (Sonny dead) happening if the show was cancelled tomorrow are slim to none. So I have no problem with him riding off into the sunset with Brenda. I just want Brenda to make him BEG for it given their last actual breakup scenes around 2011 resonated sharply. So they can't truly get back together until that is discussed I find with fans. Her return scene with Sonny in 2013 for the 50th anniversary is why I would want them back together myself. Nothing like seeing Brenda written in character which she truly wasn't IMHO in 2011...even if the rest of the storyline was RC silly (for some). I can see that. Partly. Wasn't there a rumor about a lawsuit allegedly at one point due to having them both being let go?

It doesn't. He doesn't. In fact, the stories that originated with him are STILL airing. He just now has control to finish them.

I would like to know the same though I feel it's Option 1.

Yeah. I so want the tea cuz this screams 'slap on the wrist' mixed with 'sabotage from a call coming from inside the house.'

+ 1 That picture really and truly has me feeling a way. From superb (if slow) writing to back in the trash? Really?

Sloppy is the right word. I've been feeling that way since I noticed the first time Ava was clumsy in her scheming. For months under PM she was being a crafty, cunning femme fatale again, and MW was playing that to the hilt. Now she's back to how she was under the previous writing team. Uneven and kinda stupid. Which I guess today's episode picture explains why. And I admit, it really and truly is bothering me though the acting has been great in my catching up. I think the word for me is going to be hate-watching...a word I rarely use. And since we had our theory why PM was out and who the mystery writer(s) could be...it felt apt to bring this post back. And hopefully the good that I definitely saw and found under PM's run.

Yep.

8-2 Like I just said on the Y&R thread, what was it with last week and soaps having cliffhangers on Thursdays? lol. I thought Kristina's fall was well done. Definitely well-acted (shout out to Ms. Lopez as Blaze...she has definitely grown acting-wise). I did not like how Gio reacted, but this episode went a long way to explaining his actions so also well done. He just seem so out of his depth. Thank God for Joss taking charge. But hey, it gave a nice little Gio/Trina scene so I didn't hate it. And thank you for @AbcNbc247 for the heads-up on Trina/Ava. Outside of the obvious drama going on, TA was looking DEAD DROP GORGEOUS and her presence during the fall was on point as she locked eyes with Ava/the window. But again, I don't like that they are doing such a job on the Trina/Ava friendship...but as of now, that friendship is becoming Ava's only saving grace. Meanwhile...I saw the comments about Ava making the crime scene even more complicated by moving stuff. And I wanted to pick on it, too. However, that was Wagger's stuff that Kristina fell over, and it was already established that Ava did not want anyone to know she was sleeping with Wagger so I guess I could understand why she would complicate the crime scene by getting rid of the only thing that would have set her free. Side-note...Wagger was WOOF in that towel..and NO beat-up makeup. hehe. And Chase looked nice in that suit. And it looks like someone found the right dress pants for him, too. I love it when NLG plays Mama Bear. She is absolute ferocious. And I live for it. Especially after those scenes with TJ which I found surprisingly dull though I like the actor. I also live for any moment where Scotty can stick it to Sonny. Kin Shriner plays their history oh so well. If we make it to the custody case, that is going to be delicious. So my Beast Mr. Brennan is right back where he started as the head of the WSB. How long before Carly realizes she's out because of him? Yep. Pretty much.

Oh...my heart!! Best opening for me growing up. Especially Lucy's eyebrow raise. The strings during the Puerto Rico part. And oh yes, Mac's turtleneck. My history with JY goes back to his WEREWOLF series as a kid and even now he could still get it.

Oh so many...

Hehe. I'm js. So very true. She will always have options and even her being there would give Sonny more to play...things MB would probably not even play with anyone else. I would LIVE for a reunion between Vanessa and Rena right about now. I finally saw Rena's picture in the opening with her nails and felt so nostalgic.

8-1 What is it with the soaps having good cliffhangers on Thursday? First Kristina and the fall on GH and now the ending here with Sharon on her laptop, like me, and we both stopped and looked up to see Cameron Kristen. lol. On the shallow note, @Soapsuds there's a waiter extra in some nice tight blue jeans that pops through throughout that you might like. And they FINALLY got Chance out of that suit and into his bday suit. In case, you like some CF. I am finally starting to feel invested in the Sharon storyline. Those were good intervention scenes with Sharon, Mariah, Faith, and Nick. And SC finally came to work. So well done. And the ending with Cameron was also well done. AL can read a phone book at this point and I will pay attention. Enjoyed the Summer/Daniel scene as well as sexy time for her and Chance. Oh, Victor. What are you planning? lol. I enjoyed his scenes with Devon the other day (but I always enjoy when the show touch on their history). And Devon giving Lily a heads-up. And Lily actually being a step ahead of Victor. LILY?? I thought the twist of Lily being a double agent is unnecessary, but at least her and Devon are still on good terms and it's not a complete repeat of their last fallout. Billy can go sit in the corner. If I hear about that logo one more time...

Hehe. Great minds. I just said Dan was the better over on the WRITER thread. Well, I'm sure Errol will confirm if one more writing change is coming. I hope so. Cuz this...??

It really doesn't. Because O' Connor seem the better of the two.

Given today's credit...it seem apt to bring it back up-thread...

Oh, dear...

Oh...so that picture I saw floating around an hour ago WAS true??? She will NEVER be played out.

Same. Very good news to hear.
