They better not kill off Steph. Let the character stay offscreen and be happy (as I'd like to think). I didn't know that the actor wanted to go but still. It was so unnecessary to kill him off! He could've easily been written off to go and join Steph offscreen. Kate Oates loves shock value but kills off the wrong characters. If she wanted to entice me, killing off Sean or Fiz would be a great start to getting my attention.

So they really had Phelan kill of Luke tonight? Seriously? F*ck this sh*t. Why is Kate Oates killing off all her young adult characters when this show needs to be building up the next generation? Kylie, Andy, now Luke... Just stupid and pointless. And poor Steph. Not only was she written off stupidly, but if she were to return, she'd have no family as Luke is dead and so is Andy. I like Kate Oates but she's starting to become a mess. Relying too heavily on sensationalism when it won't pay off in the long run.

Don't forget her complex relationship with Holly too. I loved how she would be wedged in-between the two and their antics at WSPR. Gilly/Holly/Roger were the perfect trio. I enjoyed that era when they were all at WSPR. Especially, when Roger tried getting Gilly to take photos of Ross to blackmail him (when he was running for Senate), she denied Roger, YET she still found herself wedged in the matter. Good times. And Belinda was a dud on AMC. It was obvious AMC pulled a "snatch and grab" b/c they had no real story for Belinda/Amelia Marshall. While AM loved playing Liz on Passions, I couldn't fathom watching that mess a lot. I (too) get p*ssed GL cast AM/Gilly aside for Alan Michael/Lucy pairing b/c they were fearful of fans going into an uproar over an interracial pairing.

Much like Bev, Amelia Marshall was never nominated either, which is horrendous as Marshall stayed delivering strong performances. It always pissed me off how she was overlooked when Gilly was one of the most compelling characters on the canvas.

@DRW50, I'm still watching and that was cute and funny. For a second, I thought it was real that Adam's twin brother was gonna take over the role. I am gonna miss Adam, & I'm still pissed that I didn't get an Adam/Victoria baby! It broke my heart to see Victoria pleading with Adam to stay, do the time (even though he's innocent), and come home to a family. It killed me to also see Adam insist that Victoria move on without him. Might I add too, that I am glad things came full circle with Cain/Adam when Cain uttered "son" to Adam. Those 2 came a long way, and I'm glad that they ended on a good note. Adam staring at pics of him, John, Holly, Moira, and Hannah made me shed tears too. With Adam leaving is truly the end of the original Barton clan. While Moira is still there, she's more of a Dingle nowadays. Truly the end of a chapter.

Well let her hate on. And I'm with @Cat that Rinna already watched this damn show. She was watching from the start, hence why she knew to latch herself onto LVP and to point her daggers at Kim and Brandi. Rinna is so full of sh-t.

Melbourne: Caught up on the episodes. Why is Gamble so fixated on Venus? It's odd. I get that Venus isn't the easiest character to get along with, but Gamble is doing too much. It was nice to see Chyka again. I miss her. I do find Sally to be a poor man's version of Chyka. I hope Sally pans out to be something interesting instead of being a dud. I do believe Lydia that Janet talked sh-t about Jackie during that lunch. I've never bought the "closeness" between the two. I think come reunion time, Lydia is gonna spill all and will have the ammo to back it up. Picture-gate was stupid. Who cares if Venus had pics on them? What was she gonna do with them? Practically nothing. While odd, I would've laughed it off and posed so she could take another one. Also, wasn't Gamble just investigating Venus' hubby and the validity of his title? An eye for an eye. BH: Glad Dorit and Rinna have buried the hatchet for now. Erika was being a twat to Teddi tonight. As we say in the South, "she's starting to smell herself." In other words, she's letting the clout she has on the show get to her head. I pray that Teddi ends up being the housewife that finally knocks Erika's ass down to size. Dorit could've done it last season had she not had PK interfering. I think Teddi might just be the one to knock that halo off Erika's head. *fingers crossed* LVP calling out Erika was good too. Was nice to see them bond a bit even though I doubt it'll last long. Erika sees LVP as a threat to the crown and is dead set on seeing her demise. Tonight was a solid episode. I do wish that they'd give Camille talking heads. I find it insulting how she's just window draping for this show when it was Camille who put BH on the map. People (production that is) better recognize greatness when they see it.

Why was Donna opposed to it? B/c Thomasina was Black or b/c of their class differences? I'm interested to hear about this.

Based off tonight, it might seem like one of them might've survived. Which one, IDK. Honestly, I wish they would've just had the girls leave town to go live with Tanya.

I thought it was stupid and cheap thrills too. It was like they were trying to do Bradley's death all over again; however, Max will be blamed and people will say he pushed the 2 women off. I just find it stupid that a little blow of wind took them off the building. I laughed if anything b/c it was absurd. I don't like the direction they've taken Max this past year. I don't see Jake Wood lasting much longer on this show, sadly. After R&R went out as a duo last year around this time, I found it stupid EE would do the same sh-t yet again a year later. Just shows that this show is running low on fumes and its end might be near.

Very true. I think everyone can agree that many of the remaining long-time characters at the end of the show did maintain their integrity in the end for the most part, which made me somewhat happy with the end.

^ This. Greg is saying the same thing that Mariah has been spouting for years. Quad is all about image and herself. She doesn't give a damn about anyone else. Now she feels she does not need Greg, she wants to discard him, but not before presenting the image that she is the victim and Greg is the bad guy. It's the same card she played with Mariah. Same book, same strategy, different person. Again, Quad's downfall is gonna be glorious.

Oh wow. I didn't know they were entertaining Thomasina and Ben too. A lot of the old school writers were so progressive and ahead of the curve in their storytelling, but it sucks that the audience and sponsors were not.

That scene was somewhat foreshadowing (in a weird way) as she died the same way years later. But was it just me or did there seem to be some chemistry between Quinn and Gil? Were they entertaining pairing the 2 together?

Sherry Mathis is just majestic in those grieving scenes. I just wish someone would post the episodes leading to TR's kidnapping/Travis' death. I'd really like to actually see them for once.
