YRBB

Tyrone going after Kevin after he realizes Kevin left the pub and then reassuring him on the bench was very, very touching. Bless.

She is the only other one that could've made the show even a semblance of its past self -- and I believe she would've done better than that, barring interference and with the support of a good producer. The opportunity passed. Sadly, we shall never see that Y&R return, except maybe the final episode....

Yep. It is so bittersweet to see the utter competence. A show still alive with creativity, and capability. HNY! Are you in the US? Hoping to catch it live. And @Liberty City is working on getting it into the Vault. Only aware of those two. :)

Fabulous. One of the best moments of that year, and indeed the show.

The gasp I gasped when I saw Pat at the end of Monday's episode! And then that beautifully sad, often tender, Nigel episode. "I've let you down" - that scene brought me to tears, such wonderful acting all around. Young Phil was phenomenal. And such a classy touch bypassing the doof-doof.

Merry Christmas @soapfan770 and everyone else! Wishing you the best Holidays ever! 🎄

Thanks! She is really great (even down to the hair!). I may go back to the start of her story to check it out.

What a brilliant episode Monday's was. Very disturbing and hard to watch, but sensational. It's hard to do something unique 11,000 episodes in!

OMG, who is this fabulous psycho bitch Celia? I checked in (usually do once a year, but my interest isn't held for long) and I certainly want to watch more of this. Charity is annoying AF as always, but intrigued by this pregnancy story. I even liked Moira! Miracles can happen!

Did my yearly check-in lol Found the couple episodes I watched (albeit a small sample) quite watchable. A little less depressing than usual. I don't need that much Max but found that Kat/Zoe scene on the bench quite touching. I will keep checking in.

I'm just waiting for the 6 episodes to air so I can binge them! It's doing incredibly well on HBO Max and Crave has renewed it for season 2!

It's definitely hard to guess what the climax would've been! Perhaps there was no other way to end it BUT to blow it up lol That being said, I do think the point was the journey more than anything else. Somebody needs to find Dunne and get him to tell us where he would have taken it lol

I honestly could see the seeds of what became of Joshua from the very beginning. Perhaps it happened a bit faster than it needed to, but Dunne did not waste time with things lmao As for Empire Valley, I don't know about always, but the basics of it were definitely laid out by the last third of season 6 - seemingly a new, modern, environmentally progressive community that was hiding an international communications center. They did NOT repeat a Lotus Point story. The real mystery is, where would it have gone in Season 7? I have no doubt Peter Dunne would've done a fantastic season-long arc with it, or something that led to the next arc. Sadly, Paulsen had no clue where to go with it (although I did like Gary blowing it all up).

Absolutely NOT! She's been feeeeding us the last few years and I hope she doesn't slow down anytime soon! Delivers every. single. time.

Kylie gave us another BOP with Hot in December and is back to no. 1 with her renewed, reissued KYLIE CHRISTMAS (Fully Wrapped)! Queen is Queening!

Yeah, it was pretty decent with the Avatars as the first half arc, and then fighting Zankou (SO haaaawt!!!) in the second half. I do have to say, it became quite continuous and I slightly missed the silly self-contained stories, but enjoyed it overall. Charisma Carpenter was wonderful too. Jen/Dawson just ended. Within one episode! Yes, she was a success from the very beginning! She's very fun.

Just finished CHARMED Season 7. Despite its silliness, it remains very entertaining. Oded Fehr as the demon Zankou was TONS of sexy. He kept that second half of the season going! On to the final season soon... which I hear was a disaster. I'm surprised they're ending Jen/Dawson so quickly! I found Joey's mugging episode such a brilliant departure for the show. Busy Phillips has been a revelation. That's how you add a new character five seasons in.

Do I think it was sustainable for everyone and their mother to start their own streaming service, splitting up content and franchises? No. Was it inevitable? Yes. The obvious happened: They couldn't keep it up and then they started merging. Are we heading towards a monopoly? Or Netflix vs Apple as the final two titans? How long before Netflix says you must pay 85 a month? Or that they will start including ads whether you want them or not? Who will stop them when they are one of the only streaming services? Unless I want to have no legal streaming access, no TV/movie content at all, what choice does that give me as a consumer? Not to mention the carnage that will occur when/if they start imposing their style of entertainment on other brands like HBO...

Definitely easier and it's almost a brand new experience when you watch HD quality.

SO exciting the HD versions is up on Paramount WITH all the episodes!! I can now watch Seasons 8-10 for the first time in superior quality and without having to do the DVDs.

THE biggest mistake the show ever made, and it ruined them forever. There were occasional good times after - but the show (such as it was) was destabilized forever.

I'm impressed with the transition into the college years so far! Also, I didn't see Jen & Dawson 2.0 coming - but the chemistry is HOT and MW is acting the hell out of it (like she always does).

Yes! It's VERY polarizing

OK, I'ma get it off my chest: The whole album feels more like an exercise in marketing and branding than actual art. An empty "Showgirl" theme just so she could do the visuals and sell it. She promised great pop melodies with Folklore style lyrics. Instead we got: 1) Severe lack of catchy melodies/choruses/hooks. The Fate of Ophelia and Opalite come close. 2) Immature, corny, nonsensical, simple, borderline amateurish lyrics panned by even hardcore fans. Just cos you're dating an all-american jock doesn't mean you should dumb everything down. The occasional quote-worthy line but lots of SERIOUS missteps. "when the coke's got you brave" "dickmatized me" "key that opened my thighs" The really awful Wi$h Li$t were she mocks people for wanting fame, success, money (her, a literal BILLIONAIRE), as if SHE didn't want ALLLLLL those things too? Why not admit you wanted/got all those things too, Taylor? 3) Bringing in Max Martin and Shellback to do absolutely NOTHING. I don't know if we'll ever know the truth of this but i wonder if she had these songs and brought them in to help promote and legitimize the project. 4) CANCELLED!????? Once Blake Lively started liking Taylor's stuff, I just knew: She's referring to that fantastic disaster. 5) Most songs sound like rejected B-sides that belong to Sabrina Carpenter 6) Attempts at being playfully sexual that come off as childish 7) Honey? Ugh..... I am 100% ok with silly, "fun" lyrics... but you gotta deliver sonically. I never minded Katy Perry's outrageous lyrics because boy her music BOPPED. Ultimately, considering the 2.7 million first day sales, this doesn't matter right now ... but it's entirely possible she has made a great miscalculation in her career with this album. She has revealed herself as relatively shallow, vapid, a perpetual victim; sadly, what people have been accusing her of being. I'm still listening... but damn, Taylor!
