2. GIVE LUKE SOMETHING ELSE TO DO! They have successfully made Luke the Nancy Hughes of the teen set. He's a modernized Nancy though. He's not a straight housewife. He's a gay rich boy. He doesn't make coffee and invite his contemporaries over to discuss their problems. No, he takes them to Java and the Lakeview. Adam's been here for a month and he's already got two romantic inklings going on! Give Luke a romantic storyline, plain and simple. His storyline from February up to June was so great. So, so great! Keep it going!

Love your comment of Luke being the Nancy Hughes of the teen set. It is so true. But I never thought of it that way. I agree the writers are wasting him by constantly having him with Jade. And when Luke was featured in his own stroyline the ratings soared. And I dont mean him pushing Lily off the stairs either.

I can see that this Katie getting revenge is going to possibly fall flat. She may get the goods on Carly and Simon, but in the end, she'll still wind up the loser.

Does anyone nkow who wrote the script and directed Tuesday's episode?

I know that Grant Aleksander directed today's episode. For SW, I think it was Judith Donato, but I *might* be wrong (so hopefully someone can verify that)

You are correct Ms. Walsh. Judith Donato was script writer for today's show with Grant directing it.

Thanks for the help, you guys.

So Emily switched the real bullets with blanks. And now Paul is switching them back.

I must say Today's show 11-22, was the best ATWT show this month, and no I am not saying it was fantastic, but it was good. I was so glad when I saw everyone at the farm for dinner at Emma's I was getting really worried by reading spoilers, that it would not happen. I even enjoyed the Craig/Dusty/Paul stuff today, I found the switching bullet scenes to be very good, I also thought the Dusty/Gwen/Will/Barbara scenes were heartwrenching, and very well done, so props to ATWT for that. Now on to Lucy, that girl needs to leave and never come back, what a total waste of a character, and what really angered me was they wasted Luke on her today, why could Luke not have just stayed at the farm, instead we have Luke listening to the pathetic whinny Lucy for a whole scene. But I must say after today's show I am looking forward to next week, which I have not done in a while.

Also Van Hansis(Luke) looked very good with his new hairstyle

I thought that was a pretty good twist, I really found those scenes to be very good

Lucy's attempt at crying is the most pathetic thing I've ever seen on this show. Truly embarassing.

At least the show seems to be awakening from the coma it's been in the last six weeks. I'm actually interested as to what'll happen next week.

And GO Adam/Jade!!!!

Yes, today show was much better. I loved the family interaction with the Snyders. Those were great scenes. I wish we had more of those kind of scenes.

It sure was. And Luke had to suffer through it too.

I totally agree with you totally embarrassing, to us the viewers and to ATWT, those scenes were just horrible. Sorry but I think Spencer needs to go back to acting school, or start acting school, because after this week, I don't think she ever went there in the first place.

And GO Adam/Jade!!!!

I also agree with that, I think I am going to like this couple, they looked hot, in that preview

OTOH, I was so disappointed by the laziness of the entire eppy. What a trava-sham-ockery.

Ehh...it was okay. I liked the Snyder family scenes, and the scenes w/ Barbara, Will, and Gwen, but the rest was bland. Too bad ATWT couldn't give us one good holiday episode.

The only down side to the Adam/Jade pairing is that it's all about Will and Gwen; Just from that clip of Jade and Adam getting hot and heavy, only for Gwen to walk in, is simply setting up for what is automatically going to happen: Gwen becoming jealous that Adam is focusing on Jade and not her.

So tired of Lucy whining about how Dusty is "mad at her" or about Craig. It's old.

I'm really surprised that the entire Oakdale citizens don't have some serious emotional attachment to baby Johnny. He's been the primary focus since the day he was conceived.

Always love seeing Luke in scenes. To be perfectly honest, I would rather have Luke being the one questioning Holden's behavior more-so than Jade. Jade may suddenly be family, however, it would be nice that an entire storyline focused on the key players that are involved; and that's Lily and Holden.

Will might as well give it up trying to talk all tough to Iris. She can make a tasty snack out of him without batting an eyelash. Funny how he can get all tough and in folks faces when it comes to Gwen, however, when he's face to face with Gwen, he acts all whiny.

So it looked like the new Adam in the previews....I was kinda getting annoyed by the first guy - he was a good actor, but the way he played Adam was annoying...half writing, half actor.

Anyway - today was better....but still rather boring.
