Darn

Honest to god what is the budget on this show? A whole barn set and a real live horse for secondary characters to discuss their son’s autism (and I guess Valentin)? I’m NOT complaining but I am shocked.

Maurice Benard’s firing. I mean I pray for it but I’d still be shocked if it happened.

The two dullest actors on a show full of em.

I don't understand how anyone thought a movie length episode of television a day was at all sustainable.

By that I mean his looks bore me. I don't understand the confusion.

Brooke English was frontburner for almost 30 years. The show was extremely invested in keeping her involved in story until Julia Barr got too old and expensive. It was a real shame because Brooke one of those characters that was quietly the foundation of the show, she wasn't larger than life like Brooke or Adam or part of a supercouple like Tad and Dixie (that said Adam and Brooke are my personal favorite couple) but one of those cornerstone characters that soaps need yet take for granted.

He's so boring looking. And listen I'm not one to talk but idk why his first scene was shirtless, I don't think that did him or us any favors.

Ah okay, I didn't see the sex montage. Sounds lame. And yeah he's dull and Nik is coming across as stupid because Esme is very manipulative but not actually a very good liar. It would play better if he just WANTED to eff her and not because he feels sorry for the little psychopath.

I only saw up until they kissed, what about the blocking would have made it more sordid and dirty for you?

I wonder if this is why soaps have gotten tamer over the years. The reactions here remind me of the comments on Facebook or Youtube. It's like the soap viewers left don't want characters to do ANYTHING untoward or tantalizing.

Maxie and geriatric Todd Manning are much creepier to me than Esme and Nik.

Kelly Monaco looks so much better recently. Her face is less puffy, her lips less swollen and she doesn't sound drugged. I wonder what was going on with her.

The train doesn't even slow down at GH, does it? Chad Duell is fine. Robert Adamson is the same level of dull as him. No recast will help Michael because Michael just sucks as a character. He'll never be any better or more interesting as long as the show continues to treat Carly and Sonny the way that they do.

Susan not aging in 6 years and going by Daisy is one of the dumber decisions I've ever seen on a soap. Were they trying to keep Harley young? What was the point of keeping her a teenager?

I thought Paris was like 20.

Whatever b!tch, you got my point.

I've been watching clips from the baby switch and it really was the death kneel for this show. They had NO clue what to do once it was over other than twist the show into a pretzel in order to save Babe and Krystal. And not just that, they ruined half of the cast in the telling of that story. They treated the audience like idiots. Not just idiots but heartless idiots. We were expected to buy after 9 months of thinking her baby was dead that Bianca would be torn about whether or not to tell JR his son was alive. And before that that Tad would EVER treat Dixie's son the way he did. They worked overtime making us think that JR was this evil monster just so they could drag out dead baby secrets. I just watched a scene where Tad described to Bianca how JR bashed in Jamie's head with a pipe, what he forgot to mention is that they were KIDNAPPING his baby at the time! The way Tad tried to blame Adam and JR for Paul Kramer switching the babies because they yelled at him when they thought the babies were dead! This story ruined nearly everyone but it really did a number on Tad. He chose blood (Jamie) over love (JR) and it was disgusting to see. All that said, it was still AMC's last great story. Here's a particularly good scene between Adam and Erica: Anyway, this year if aged in real time Miranda and AJ would be able to vote.

This is an actual promo...with scenes across multiple episodes...when is the last time Y&R did that? And it features the Black Cast? And Nate and Elena got some nerve considering how their relationship started.

Are they going to behead a pregnant woman?

Shhhh...you can't question such things. Niki bought the wig. She bought it for fun. Viki never woke up in the wig because Niki didn't sleep with it on. Jean didn't have to do a fitting, Viki's worn a pantsuit once or twice in her life. Jean's glasses were purely to complement her look.

I got a super conservative vibe from his social media from jump and frankly he looks lowkey uncomfortable with Tabyana onscreen. He wrote all that nonsense because he's scrambling, his job might be on the line.

I knew something about him rubbed me the wrong way.

Ahh thank you!

I was was watching clips from the 1994 tornado earlier and suddenly realized that Erica was not there (and surprisingly, as much as I love her, was not missed). Then I read up on it and apparently she was in Seattle for an extended stay and didn't return until weeks after. Was Susan Lucci on vacation? Or filming something else?

They feel like filler. Days has a similar problem. The cast is so enormous and the stories start and stop so much that there's no sense of purpose or focus. They're just making sure they have 5 hours to fill each week. Oh. I didn't realize Rebecca Budig was on long enough to have a whole ass child.
