Good for Lisa. If she returns to BH next season, I hope something like this serves as her story. At least for her new restaurant. I'd rather watch Lisa build and remodel a new restaurant than watch a witch hunt against her. Nothing kills your enemies more than them seeing you succeed.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
Phil was a total prat this entire episode. How dare he beg and plead Peggy to fight when his ass can't even fight to keep his lips from being wrapped around a liquor bottle? Glad Ronnie called him out over his attempt to bully Peggy into doing what he wants. Belinda's climax was predictable. Of course, Neville was a bad husband, Mick came to the rescue, and Belinda had to take the word of the wise sage that is Linda. When Linda went on that tangent about marriage, I gagged. I'm all for a stable marriage on this show, but not when it is force fed to us every damn episode. We get it. Linda and Mick won't engage in an affair and they are rock solid. No need to sell it to us constantly. Primary rule to storytelling is showing not telling. Clearly, DTC and his writers missed that day of Creative Writing. Just a simplistic scene like him rubbing Linda's feet, like he did, would sell me. Not them constantly having to tell us what marriage signifies. Now that Neville is out the picture (for now), I hate now how they are gonna make Belinda pursue Mick now, so Linda can once again be a victim. I would've simply preferred if Belinda had just left Neville over the CostMart deal. Walford was her home--is the home of many of her family members. Her simply leaving her husband over him gentrifying Walford would've served enough reason to place Belinda back on the Square. It would've been more entertaining for her to lead the pack alongside Buster to prevent CostMart from coming in rather than making Neville a perverted old goat--a move to depict how Mick is the ideal man and husband. Nice to see Sonja express her real reason for not wanting the mastectomy--that being that she doesn't not want to lose her breasts, which define her womanhood. Compelling piece work even though I didn't need her to go get drunk to divulge her fear.

Technically, I know it'll never be over but we won't have to watch Aaron sob for the foreseeable future. I thought Emma was a hoot tonight. I knew when he didn't cut that intercom off, Emma knew his secret. I am glad she is not going to do the cliche thing (too) and get him fake her ailment. I'm glad he's gonna just imply that he has more test he has to run on her.

I knew it! I knew Emma was gonna blackmail the doctor into lying for her. I doubt she has long as Cain is hot on the trail of who Belle was fooling around with. Diane's scenes were cute. Nice to have her rethink wanting to close this chapter in her life and start a new one. I don't blame Chas for wanting Diane to stay over Charity, who'll constantly serve as a headache. I really didn't care for Aaron's story. I am glad it wrapped up and Gordon is gone to prison. I hope this is the last time we hear about this.

The whole story is pointless. At least the Neville/Belinda portion of it, and Buster having tried to vandalize their home.

I think Misse is the only one that doesn't integrate into the group well. Seema and Stacey integrate fine as they do have preexisting relationships with many of the women. Misse can go next season when they bring Magali back. In other news, why did my shady ass tweet have to show up on TV?

Belinda and her spouse, Neville, are creepy. Make sense now why Belinda is so overtly sexual as they are swingers, and Neville is 'fluid.' but why Linda and Mick? Those would be the last 2 I'd wanna swing with. I'll give credit where it is due. I thought EE had two powerful scenes tonight. One being Ronnie looking on as Sal and Peggy hugged each other. I think that it mirrored how Ronnie and Roxy should be. The second being the last scenes where Sonia and Peggy got their results back. We saw Sonia get a new lease on life while Peggy got a death warrant. Very powerful. Good job, DTC. One of the few things you got right.

Buster and Lee going to the house of the owner of CostMart was so stupid. That wasn't going to stop the man from going ahead with plan to open a store in Walford. Plus, why does Carly have to lust after ugly ass Mick? I swear DTC is determined to make Mick the center of the universe. He's all-knowing, tough, a great 'dad' and husband, and now other women lust for him. So stupid. Good to see Peggy come back. Let's get this show on the road.

Not true, Mitch. The videos of the scattering of Alan's ashes and Lewis boys fishing are available online. Definitely different locations. The Lewises were shown fishing in a brook (likely filmed in Peapack). Alan's ashes were scattered from a beach along a lake (likely Lake Mohawk in Sparta, NJ, which was the filming location for the double weddings). Brooks like the one Guiding Light used are quite common in that area of New Jersey (my late aunt lived right next to one) and are quite popular for fishing. LOL..it looked like a good old midwestern drainage ditch to me!! Speaking of Alan's ashes...why the hell would Buzz Cooper be sticking his fat head in the scene? First he takes over the Billy Van wedding with his open maw gum chewing and then Alan's funeral. Why did they not kill Buzz off..I would have gone off happy! I never saw the cornfield opening and I don't know who half those people are!!! Shows how invested in the show I was. I totally would've been fine with Buzz being killed off. It would've been poetic justice in a sense as rumors were that Ellen Parker/Maureen was fired so they could pay for Justin Deas/Buzz. They killed the wrong Cooper (Coop) the last year of the show. When did you stop watch the show, Mitch?

RHOCheshire s3e6: I'm just gonna do an analysis of what I feel about the women on this episode: Leanne: Again, I am gradually growing a like her a bit as she's starting to think for herself. However, I am over her whining about Seema not having a seat for her on a private jet. You got there (via Ampika). Be happy. What I didn't understand was why these women even need a damn private jet to get to Paris? When I studied abroad in London, I simply took the English Channel via the Eurostar train to Paris. It was quick, comfortable, and cheap. Stacey: Messy bitch. I still like her but she is messy a f-ck. I didn't like when she implied that Ampika couldn't pay for plane on her own b/c of her occupation. How would she know? I hate when another bitch tries to count your coin. Tend to yours and leave everyone else's alone. For all we know, Marc probably pulled some strings and got the jet. Seema: Still love her. I love how she pays Leanne dust about the private jet situation. Seema gives no f-cks and who can blame her with that fine ass husband and eldest son. Yum! Dawn: Same thing, different week. I grow tired of her playing the 'woe is me' card. If she'd just accept her bitchiness and get a backbone, I might grow to like her a bit. Lauren: So unfortunate about her situation but I like how she is dealing with it with grace. Most women would smear their exes but she is choosing to take the higher road. I hope she finds peace in whatever decision she makes. Personally, I hope she reconciles with Paul as they are a perfect match. Tanya: I felt like she was old Tanya again--season one Tanya. She's so much more enjoyable when she isn't under Dawn's thumb. Misse: I can't stand this bitch. I liked her at first but she nuked any chance when she came for Ampika over some sh-t that had NOTHING to do with her. Plus, I can't stand an insecure b-tch. Girl, get over it. Men lusting over your man comes with the territory. He's a public figure and it's gonna happen until he dies. If a woman wants your man bad enough, and your man is eager enough to entertain it, it is going to happen. You can't fight it. Bye, Misse. Lame ass. Ampika: My favorite! I love how she gave Misse the business with ease. Sucks though that she's gonna allow Misse to get to her next week.

For the longest, I was who is Holly? Then I realized you meant Stacey. If Magali is open to coming back next season, I feel like they need to drop Misse. I they can keep Stacey and Seema, both who I adore, b/c they have no issue with calling Dawn on her sh-t, which never gets old with me.

I hated it. I at least want to see the world spin around and space or whatever. Only reason I loved the cornfield opening was the theme and graphics. it's too bad they never released a second version with the other characters Is it definite that they planned a second version? ATWT only had a cast of about 25-26 at that point. This version featured most of the cast, either at the forefront or in the clips in the background. I remember hearing rumblings that there was second version already filmed but I guess it never came out. Honestly, I think the show probably just filmed one opening with the characters they loved to write for (with the exception of Bob, Kim, Lucinda) and center the show around 24/7 at that time.

Damn! I guess the rumors probably came out at the reunion and Chyka put her foot down. I don't blame her. She will be missed though.

I thought it was Klein too. Oh well. I totally forgot that Monti Sharp was on ATWT for a stint too. I thought his story with Camille/Ben was absurd. I swear they used to give Ben (and those surrounding him) some of the most absurd stories minus the church fire and later the Marshall Travers story.

Nuh-uh. Maybe it felt better because a) all of the sudden GL got more publicity about it's cancellation than it had in the previous 20 years combined, or b ) it had fallen so far that the gruel EW served up looked better than the [!@#$%^&*] on a shingle she'd delivered in Peapack, But I will never forgive the WTFery of Billy and Vanessa's wedding (after most of their reunion being served up off-screen, BTW, and I know that's a fact because they'd sucker me in with spoilers and then be on for a grand total of two FREAKIN minutes while some huge non-event in Otalia's relationship played out for a majority of the eppy) being usurped by Buzz and Lillian and two non-credited Y&R homage-inspired "guests". They freakin' killed Alan and dumped his ashes three feet off a beach. I may hate, loathe and DESPISE the way Luke's dead lover ate up more than half of the last month of the show, and that Katie got more sympathy than the dead matriarch of the show---at her own funeral. Or that that bitch Janet befouled Carjack's honeymoon suite with the afterbirth of her bastard son. Still doesn't make GL's ending better. I love you dearly b/c of our love for CarJack and ATWT, but GL was better in it's final week than ATWT. I didn't care for Buzz and Lillian's insta-wedding with Billy and Vanessa but it was a nod to history as Lillian begged Maureen for forgiveness--something we never saw her do before sharing a wedding with Maureen's best friend. That was what was great about GL--they acknowledged and made nods to history. I do agree that Jeanne Cooper and Christian LeBlanc popping up was stupid as hell; however, I knew Jeanne wanted to be on GL's finale badly b/c she's always expressed (as a fan) if she wasn't on Y&R, she would've wanted to be on GL. ATWT didn't. Besides CarJack's wedding and the final scene with Bob/Kim, the final week was a dud thanks to Goutman.

I used this theme on my blog that I was doing here awhile back--do you think this version would've been suitable? SN: This YT poster has done modern version of Y&R, GL, AW, and other soap themes too. Should check them out. That probably would've been better. I did thought like the 1993 opening and it showing all the seasons. I wonder how it would've mashed up with the 1986 theme, as I hated the 89 theme of ATWT.
