I had a feeling that was him.

LOL, me too! I knew he looked familiar! He went from playing a lead role on OLTL to being side barred? That's weird.

And IA, this episode was awesome. The interactions were great. Belle and Phillip's scene stood out too--. It's getting exciting which is when soaps are at their best IMO.

I don´t mind when characters mumbles line or two for themselves, but I hate that "now I will recap the entire plot for those dumb viewers who didn´t understand it from the conversation before and all the flashbacks." which is like trademark for Reilly, Langan and co. It´s againt that gold rule "show, don´t tell" which should be a canon for all scriptwriters.

Anyway, it´s amazing how much the show changed, not even the main plots, because we are still dealing with things planned by Reilly, but the daily execution is so different. It just show how much all the writers suffered under Reilly´s dictatorship and that they can be good too, if somebody gives them freedom to show what they can. I can´t even imagine how different have to be those writers meeting now, when they aren´t communicating with a digital version of Reilly live from New York, but with a real person who understands

and cares about the show and is actually there on daily basis.

Wow. Excellent post, Jane.

I couldn't agree with you more.

It's WAY better to have a headwriter at the meetings and who has his own office right there in the studio, rather than a headwriter who doesn't care and only makes telephone calls from NY to L.A. I never understood why Reilly never moved to L.A. Isn't PASSIONS filmed in L.A. also? If so, I think he should move there. God, does this man even care, LOL?

DaysForever, JER cared. He just was burnt out. The current crop of "Passions" episodes proves he cares. (They're great if you hadn't heard). The problem, however, was his writing two soaps.

My only gripe about yesterday's episode was Abby. Um, you can't talk about your EMPLOYER's brother that way. Get a clue, nervy !@#$%^&*]!

Damn, Max should have fired that whore ON THE SPOT.

ASS!

Anyway, what's with the negative comment about how "AW" dude 'hasn't aged well?' He looks fine for his age! I hope we're not criticizing the fact that he aged at all and got gray hair and -- gasp! -- looks old. He looked fine to me. Actually, I thought he aged WELL.

Anyway, the true star of Monday's show was Julie Pinson. Your heart just BROKE for Billie and her love for her daughter. Bo was fierce!

[!@#$%^&*] was on F-I-R-E today

Pinson was on a roll!!!

Billie: "Chelsea has built a wall around her and WE need to be the ones to break it down."

Let Hellsea choke behind the wall.

Bo's given up enough to that bitch.
