An another thing, why do saul and the kids handle nora with kid gloves. They didn't want to tell her about their fathers affair with holly because it would hurt her and they don't want to tell her about their fathers bad business deals because it will hurt her. To me at least Nora seems stronger than all of them, they don't give her any credit. I hope that when she learns about their latest secret they are keeping from her that she blast every last one of them(the ones that know at least) for handling her with kids gloves.

I really like this show...I agree with how her kids are handling Nora with kid glooves. She lived through the death of the man she loved, i think she can handle the affair and the secret that her beloved husband made some huge mistakes. And I feel bad for Justin, who the hell gave Tom the right to treat his brother like that. Like he has lived such a perfect life, i hope he messes up and when he needs his brothers and sisters they all give him the cold shoulder!

I agree that tonight's episode wasn't quite as good as the others - but it was still enjoyable. I can just sit and watch that family watch TV and not help but get this warm family feeling inside. I can't explain it...perfect cast.

I'm wondering if the guy who plays Kevin is gay too? Anyway - he gets cuter to me every episode - I mean he still has this sad look to his face - but he's got a cute little personality and I like him.

The older brother really needs to get established and not just always be angry - I'm really not liking him much. I loved how he got Paige to get in the water last episode - but that was about it. Oh and he has a girlfriend we've not been introduced to yet. Let's get on with that...

The girl who plays Tyler is really cute - I hope she is on for awhile. There is potential for her to be the good girl who saves the little brother.

Next week looks good - I want Kitty to be with Warren.

Actually -- he's married to that blonde who's always around. Has she even spoken? LOL. If so ... I hardly notice her.

I'm loving this show -- and it was picked up for a FULL SEASON!

I'm just hoping ratings start remaining consistent. They can't keep dropping.

My favourite new show of the season next to Ugly Betty. I love the deep character development and interraction this show possesses. Its not flashy over the top, its true down to earth drama and man the cast is just brilliant. Sally Field is just amazing as is Calista and Rachel. Love it love it! I hope it has a long and prosperous future and lots of emmy consideration come next fall.

They almost seem not to know what to do with this brother, his wife just stands around with nothing to say. Maybe they do have a girlfriend in the wings for him (assuming, not a spoiler) and he might have a storyline. Like father like son after all.

He also played opposite Calista Flockhart before. He was on the last season of Ally McBeal and played a similar character...

I'm finally up to date with this show. I must say I love the cast (not surprising) and the look. But so far the writing leaves so much potential unused. I really hope for Greg Berlanti (who's done brilliant work on Everwood) to get his hands fully on the show so that the actors get more chances to shine.

I enjoyed every episode so far but I'm not gripped by the storylines and characters as much as wished it to be. The so-called character development is so far poorly done. They need to fix this and THEN we'd have a fabulous show overall.

Last week I loved the family portrait havoc. It was a riot! The diabetes story meanwhile was predictable beyond the meaning of the word.

Wow that kiss between scotty and kevin was terrible, you couldn't see anything over scotty's shoulder. :lol: Abc is horrible at at having gay relationships on their network. I'm lovin Justin tonight. When did jonathan and kitty make up? I thought he dumped her. I wish kitty would pick Warren, I hate jonathan. Nora and her hot date, she better not blow it. Saul on a date with the skank was disgusting.

    • Sonny, a week or two after having open heart surgery, walking around with his shirt unbuttoned to a V neck,  showing no signs of stitches or even a scar..
    • Not hugely surprising, but still another awful blow for GH and soap history in general. Denise was a pioneer on several shows. Others have said everything far more eloquently than me, so I'm just echoing them here. I do wish more of her DAYS work was available - I always wanted to see them honor her again - but I am glad so much of her GH run is.
    • RIP Denise!!

        I’m sadly not as familiar with her work as most on here are, but I always hate seeing another icon leave us! 
    • I'm thinking he's much older than the age he's playing and botoxed the hell out if his face - that's why it doesn't move. Source: I saw him in a 2012 episode of CSI. Not only was he already in his 20s, but his face moved back then.
    • I didn’t even think of that OMG Tomas not even pretty enough to make taking his “acting” palpable. And his two potential love interests are played by these genuinely charismatic actresses

      . I think Martin’s flying off the handle so much is intentional and plays into the secret. The family seems to know theres some rage issues there.
    • I see a pattern here.

    • I liked when Felicia was over the top and was more Felicia the writer than Felicia the mother figure. Personal taste as always. For me, Felicia was AW to me. She was one of the few constants on a show that was constantly changing.  RIP Denise Alexander. I always liked her on the show despite her storyline never reaching its full potential. The sad thing is I would watch that storyline in a second over so much of what happened on AW from 1986 onwards. Strangely, youtube recommended a AW episode to me last night that involved Mary comforting Scott about Dawn. I really do wish they had found a way to make those two characters work long term.

    • Yes, I like him too. He is a good actor, and I agree with your comments about his personality. I also want to add, I think that he comes across as realistic and IMO sane. Yeah, he's done some bad things, but he seems pretty in control for the most part and not the least bit crazy. I appreciate that type of behavior in someone who can behave like a villain. And I continue to buy that he really does love his daughters. Unlike Leslie who seems to only use and mistreat Eva, I have seen Bill soften when it comes to his daughters. And I do believe he would do what he felt he had to do to protect them. His love for his children, helps make him more layered as a character. I really enjoyed his scenes with Dani today. I enjoyed the show today. I thought that the scenes with Nicole being comforted by both her parents including them switching out to comfort her were sweet and cute. I particularly enjoyed her scenes with Vernon. I love her relationship with her parents. I also liked Tomas/Eva scenes. He genuinely seems to care about her, and I am interested in seeing how things will play out between them and him and Kat.
    • Dani really got on my nerves. Her own life is a total disaster, yet she interferes with everyone else's. What could she possibly say to Ted that will change anything? That will help anyone? And as you said, while she bashes Bill, she wants him back -- all the while knowing who he is and who he's been for years. None of these scenes are pushing me to appreciate Dani. -- OTOH, Bill got some very good shots in at Dani. He won that face-off. -- June is just a ball of cliches and stereotypes to this point. I hope this goes somewhere. -- Martin flies off the handle much too easily, but I did appreciate that he grew calm and subdued, and even sad, with Ted. -- I'm glad Tomas is pretty, because damn, that acting. -- I'm glad Derek looks so good in tight jeans, because damn, that acting. -- LMAO at Leslie gaining entrance to Nicole's house because Nicole wanted the front door ajar so Door Dash could leave her takeout.
