I'm loving these scenes with Zarf, Di, and Aiden. The way Zarf is trying to cover and play-flirt with Aiden. Hilarious. And Di is just looking Zarf over and over with big eyes. haha Aiden is so cute too...you know he likes it ;)

So Ryan got the motorcycle? Maybe we'll all get our wish and he rides away from the show again in 2007???

And finally - we got a lesbian kiss between Bianca and Leslie! It wasn't a short little peck either...impressive. Liking how Bianca is asking her if she knows any transgendered people too. Seems realistic for her to want to understand what it is all about...

ITA about Babe/Josh. It's so repetitive and annoying today. Let's move on PLEASE.

And Zarf has me rolling too! LoL - I loved his little shake and tongue flapping he did with Di. Also when he said "Lady and GentleMAN". So appropriate. Jeffrey is a great actor and this is a perfect role for him.

I swear the only thing that is bringing this show down right now is Babe and her tirangle with J.R and Josh. It is so repetitive. How many scenes do we have to see Babr telling Josh to get the hell away from her and Josh saying no I love you. Jesus. I hate thos storyline!!!!!!!

Anyeay, other than that its a great show so far. Loving Leslie and Bianca. Make Leslie a contract player! She rocks. And I love how they are discussing the transgendered issue and Bianca is now starting to feel a little guilt for reacting the way she did, just a little.

Zoe with Di and Aidan is a real trip especially Zarf/Zoe coming on to Aidan LMFAO! And Colby and Sean are fun too. But it will end badly as always :lol: poor Colby, she is going to have a record the size of Janet Green's by the time she hits 20!

Poor Babe couldn't even get her heel on the damn thing! lol - that was a cheesy shot.

I wish Brent Weber would annunciate his words a little better...sometimes I can't understand what he is saying over his slurred speech. Anyway, I'm enjoying the Colby/Sean stuff anyway.

THANK YOU - I'm so happy that Kendall has stated that she understands now why Zach has this need to help women in need (ie. Maria, Julia, Dixie). I'm happy that was addressed - and that Kendall named the ladies. No more jealousy please!

Kendall is a little slow on the uptale but glad she finally gets it! Zach asking her if she was his shrink :lol: solid Zendall scenes. They truly have finally hit their stride. As if nothing can break them now. I love it.

Zoe owned the stage. It was pre comedy but what comedy. Great acting and signing by Jeff C. The looks on everyone's faces were like WOW!

Sean and Colby are cute together now they are actually being written like real teens.

A huge improvement over yesterday. Marla Kanelos is probably the strongest scripter on the show. We go from the hot mess that is Courtney Bugler (thanks R Sinclair, that post about her yesterday was hilarious) to Marla..

I've been trying to pay more attention to the SW for the day and I know there is a lot of love for Amanda Beall that I don't really feel but I do find Marla Kanelos very good (for AMC).

I loved Zach and Kendall today. Much of their dialogue could have been very over the top sweet and stomach turning so I have to hand it to MK and TK and AM for not making it turn out like all schmoopy. It was funny and loving at the same time. I'm glad, Zach and Kendall are not a schmoopy couple so I'm glad they don't play it like that and I'm glad MK, TK and AM get that about this couple. Zach and Kendall are finally getting the story they should have got last year. They are a very popular couple and I'm glad they have a story which does not involve them being ripped apart....again.

Annie has gone from boring me to making me outright dislike her. Kendall was willing to die for Spike 7 months ago and Zach was willing to give up everything to make sure Spike entered this world safe and now she thinks Ryan will somehow protect Spike better than Zach and Kendall? Ryan who threw himself over a cliff so he would not be a father? Do past actions mean nothing now that King Lavery has spoken? I can give Annie a tiny bit of a pass because Annie was not around for that storyline but Ryan was and today it seemed like he was more pissed off that Zach didn't tell him about his past that actually concerened about Spike. I will give a shout out to Cameron Mathison today for bringing the yay with Zach and how it's killing him that Zach did not confide in him. Ryan made me laugh for once. Real mature for Ryan to just barge in tomorrow and tell Kendall her son is not coming home. Nothing like having a mature, rational discussion about the situation. Once an ass, always an ass.

Now Babe decides that the compact needs to be returned? I would think she would realize the innappropriatenes of that gift and would have never taken it from the start but she can't help herself. A whore's got to do what a whore's got to do. Babe's just distracted by shiny things....and penises.

ETA:

It was bizarre. I laughed and then felt horribly guilty for doing so.

I'm just glad Kendall now knows everything about Zach's involvement in the murder mystery so hopefully her trust issues have been resolved.

Annie is on a par with Babe to me right now. How can a mother support keeping a child from another mother? Especially when Annie knows how easy it was for David to take Emma from under Ryan & Jonathan's nose and that she almost shot Ryan last summer. At least Zach & Kendall never came close to killing each other!

I can't take any more of Babe or Josh. They're ff material because they keep having the same conversation over and over. I was glad that she broke that stupid "You Are Loved" compact. Babe is the last person who needs reassurance that someone loves her.

Sean/Colby are a good couple now that they're scenes actually have some depth.

I didn't find Zoe/Zarf funny in the scenes with Aiden and Di. I thought it was bizarre that he would vamp it up and act like a drag queen. In the scenes at ConFusion, Eden Riegel stole the show for me. She said more with just her eyes than most actors do with a monologue. The conversation between Bianca & Leslie was so real and I'm glad the show seemingly has done its research on transgender issues. I want more of this and less of Zoe's karaoke. I did feel a little sorry for Zoe today, though, since she seemed conflicted about whether to tell the truth before she started singing (or maybe I'm reading too much into it).

    • What a wonderful photo! It really is a shame that Peacock will not show those early years. I know I'd love to see them!
    • With the death of Days and GH actress, Denise Alexander, someone posted this in the Days thread, a '60s-era photo of some of the cast, which lists the names. In the upper left, is a young Susan Flannery, who obviously ended up playing Stephanie Forrester on B&B, who was one of a few actresses to play Dr. Laura Horton [mother to Mike and Jennifer Horton] on Days. Here is a link to the photo: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/38014-days-behind-the-scenes-articlesphotos/?do=findComment&comment=2022200

    • Sorry, there must have been a error, while creating the file. I redone it and it has audio
    • Tamara Tunie was on a local CBS affiliate in Baltimore the other day talking about a few things she had going on, BTG amongst them: "Beyond the Gates" star Tamara Tunie is in Baltimore for the Reginald F. Lewis Museum's 20th anniversary
    • Kobe/Long had their own template and pretty much gutted the cast. As soon as contracts were up established characters were dropped. They needed to free the budget for the new characters. Going back to Ann,I wonder why the Dobsons renewed her contract around 78? After her initial story she became supporting and they didn't seem to want to pursue a romance with Mike. Maybe the feedback was that viewers blamed her indirectly for Leslie's death. If Mike hadn't taken on her case etc. Did she decide not to disrupt her son's life? Seems odd after everything she didn't claim him back. 1976 continues... Joe Werner is just not bouncing back after his recovery as he should, and Sarah, concerned about his sometimes morbid-seeming depression, consults Justin Marler. They agree that Joe is becoming a “cardiac cripple,” and know this kind of overcompensation for illness and overprecaution can not only be a permanently depressed condition but can actually cause a setback for him physically.  Marler releases Joe into Sarah’s care, but it’s soon apparent that just being out of the hospital hasn’t done anything to boost Joe’s spirits about his return to a normal existence. Marler finally lays it out to Joe—the choice has to be his. He can choose to lead a normal, productive life as a doctor and as a husband to the best wife he could have, or he can choose to become an invalid and live on the outside looking in for the rest of his days, sentencing Sarah to the same fate. Realizing the selfishness of what he’s doing to —Sarah as well as the narrowness of the confinement he’s set for himself, Joe begins to see his preoccupation with his illness as the self-pity it really is and decides he’s ready to return to the hospital for a one hour shift each day. Sarah is overjoyed by his turnabout, but full happiness is hers on the day she overhears Joe telling a fearful patient that the world is beautiful and worth any. effort to get back into it. Steve and Adam are thrilled to learn that Cedars has been the recipient of the Levy Grant for expansion of hospital property. But they have learned, as they report to Ed, that the land they were hoping to build the new research facility on, the land immediately adjacent to the hospital, has been purchased by Dr. Justin Marler. Both Adam and Steve feel that Justin is expanding a power base at Cedars and the land purchase is just one more block in Justin’s power play. When Ed asks Marler why he purchased this particular parcel of land, Marler explains that he bought it with the express intention of someday building his own offices and facilities convenient to the major facilities of Cedars. When the subject of the hospital’s needing the land arises, Marler meets with Adam, and they agree that he should realize a fair profit from his property and that an unbiased assessor should be engaged to evaluate the market value of the land so they can agree on a selling price. When Sarah comments on the fact that Marler is to realize a profit on the land, he bitterly replies that no matter what he’s done since coming to Cedars to prove that he has changed. since she last knew him, she refuses to see him as anything but what he was all those years ago. Sarah insists this isn’t true. But Marler then calls Adam for a meeting and informs him that the land is not for sale at any price. As Adam begins to grow alarmed, Marler continues that the site for the new building will be his personal donation to the hospital. As Adam expresses profuse thanks and appreciation, Marler wryly notes that the tax deductions he’ll realize on this contribution to a charitable institution will benefit himself almost as much as Cedars. When Steve Jackson learns that Marler is to be elected head of the research wing that will be built on his property, he expresses the conviction that this was the exact intention of the gift. Adam, however, assures Steve that the donation wasn’t a factor in the hospital  board’s decision, they were concerned only with Dr. Marler’s reputation as a doctor. | After lengthy consultations and meetings. with the hospital  staff, Ed assured by the head nurse that her nurses performed commendably despite the added pressure of the train wreck, presents his findings to the hospital review board. Steve arrives at two possible explanations for the facts. Either Grainger, more active than usual due to the previously delayed medication, reached for the writing pad and inadvertently disconnected the breathing tubes, or he was in a state of extreme upset because of the delayed medication and.in the excitement a surge of adrenalin within his system caused his brain aneurism to start hemorrhaging. " Upon learning that the review board has ruled out negligence in Grainger’s death, Ed tells Rita, who takes her first free breath in a long time. But Ed hasn’t thought to tell Rita that he’s been in touch with Grainger’s attorney, Mr. Schafer, who, knowing that a woman was at the base of Grainger’s investigation, is coming to Springfield to try to find out who the woman - was who walked out on Grainger when he collapsed —in the restaurant. Peggy, learning that Rita’s “forgetting” to deliver Holly’s message was instrumental in their divorce ‘being finalized, tells Ed that Holly wanted to reach him to stop the divorce. Immediately after, Peggy is torn by doubts, wondering if she did the right thing.She confides in Barbara, who then discusses the situation with Ed. He tells her he and Holly have discovered a new closeness now that they are building their separate lives. Barbara quickly contradicts him: Holly is not building a new life. Barbara gently cautions Ed, saying, “People change, feelings change, and what seems right now may not be right a year from now. No decision is irrevocable.” Ed agrees with this. Now that Ben has declared his love for her, Hope finds herself apprehensive, fearing that she might be making a mistake, as she did a few years ago, when she was sure she was in love with her college professor. Explaining that she doesn’t want to make another mistake, she asks Ben to be patient, and he agrees. When Mike expresses his disapproval of Ben’s overstated independence, his need to be beholden to no one, Hope quickly jumps to Ben’s defense, and Mike apologizes. But Ben, surprisingly, accepts Mike’s assessment as constructive criticism. Later Hope, examining her feelings and desires, tells Ben she does love him and wants to belong to him. Later that evening, after they’ve made love, Ben asks Hope to marry him.And, delighted, she replies that she will. At Hope’s instigation, Bert has a family dinner to which Ben is invited, and Hope announces their intention to marry over glasses of wine. Mike politely offers best wishes while Bert thrills the couple with her offer to' make a Christmas wedding for them. Bert later tells Mike he must accept this engagement with good spirits for Hope, and later, seeing the joy she’s feeling, he gives his daughter his approval. But Ben finds another problem on his very own doorstep: his brother Jerry, who announces he’s left home after several bad fights with their parents. He refuses to tell Ben what they were fighting about. As Ben is showering, Jerry borrows his car and goes out for an hour. The phone rings, but Ben can’t hear it. Shortly after, two uniformed officers visit Mike at home to tell him that his late wife’s car has been involved in a delicatessen robbery earlier in the evening. Since Ben bought Leslie’s car, Mike accompanies the officers to Ben’s apartment. Ben curtly informs the police that he had nothing to do with the robbery and makes it clear that he feels they wouldn’t be there if he didn’t have a record and that his exoneration doesn’t prevent his being hassled like any ex-con,as they tell him he has to go to the police station for questioning. Hope tells Ben she called him earlier, and when he replies that he must have been in the shower, she accepts his word unhesitatingly.Jerry finally returns to Ben’s place and under questioning from Ben admits that he robbed the store,explaining that he has debts. Ben is now in a quandary,as he feels he must protect his brother but doesn’t want to be unfair to Hope. He tries to ease the situation by withdrawing $185 from the joint checking account he opened with Hope and repaying the delicatessen owner. He then sends Jerry out of town to stay with a friend. His relief at having solved the problem is short-lived, however, when Mike informs him that, despite the reparations, the robbery was a felony and the police will continue to investigate. Hope is badly upset to learn while making a deposit that Ben withdrew’a sum which Mike tells her is equal to the amount stolen. This shakes her belief that he _was really home when she called, and she goes to him, asking for an answer to put her mind at rest. Ben can’t betray Jerry and asks Hope to trust him, promising she will have the whole story eventually. But Hope can’t accept this; she needs complete honesty and openness in her relationship and without it cannot goon. She painfully tells her father that the wedding is off despite her love for Ben, and tells Bert to stop preparations. Mike goes to Ben, reminding him that half the money in the account is Hope’s and she has the right to an answer. But Ben won’t say any more and refuses Mike’s offer to represent him legally, again stating that he doesn’t need a lawyer, because he’s done nothing wrong.     
    • And not since. I recall it was quite small for a house that size. And I don't know why you would walk down a narrow corridor to get to the main living area. I hate when the sets on soaps don't have a logical layout! As for Andre his clothing is fashion forward and suitable for his character.He ain't gonna wear no blazer!
    • The last I remember seeing Ben, he was divorcing Amanda. He came to tell Evie that he still loved her, but was leaving town so that Amanda wouldn't blame Evie for his divorcing her. I'm not exactly sure when, but Evie doesn't leave town until sometime after Nola and Quint's engagement ball. I'm not sure if she leaves before or after Justin leaves in Sept(?) of '83. I grew to like Helena when she became friends with Vanessa, once she's edging her way out of Quint's life.
