I watched tonight's premiere show and love it already. The pace is fast, meaningful and the characters are a complex group. I'm enthralled.

Why did she vanish twelve years ago and what are her parents covering up?

I loved the ending with the guy in the bar recognizing her as the girl he wanted to marry 12 years ago.

Was anyone else ready for a two-hour opening? I sure wanted more.

The hour just flew by! I keep seeing Brian Kinny though from QAF lol. The actor is good in the role, but it's just so read seeing him in a different role after he played BK for so many years. I have mixed feelings about the show, Iwasn't really paying attention to it but I'll give it another shot.

World Turns, FOX will encore the premiere of Vanished tonight at 9PM. :) Hope you get to see it.

This new show is very fast-paced and there is a lot twists. I love it already!

I'm glad this is taking the spot for 24 until January. It's a good fit.

And before it aired, FOX was airing a preview of the show, and TV Guide said, "Jack Bauer would be proud." :lol: Yes he would, LOL.

THere is absolutely nothing original about this show, including the title, but it works really well! I look at it as a remake of all those missing person stories we've seen before. LOVE the cast except the actress who plays the vanished woman, she sucks. Gale Harold and Ming-Na look like a good team and Rebecca Gayheart always rocks! BTW, is it just me or was her sex scene very racy for basic cable?

I like the double mystery of Sarah/Niki and liked the ending tonight. The reporter is tying it all together nicely and giving us some views different than the FBI ones. The characters are good. It was good to see the ex-wife in action, today and I'm wondering how she figures into this story.

    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
