PSNS: Monday January 8


Recommended Posts

The theme of today's episode is clearly the deception and trust.

..................................................

What's happened to Theresa? I love that she's matured, but the character is no longer riveting.

Since Jared has entered the picture, I think Theresa has lost her pizazz. She used to be arguably the most exciting character. The Ethan/Theresa/Jared storyline is probably the least interesting to me now. Jared is boring and Ethan is not much better.

For me, it's the opposite. I am only interested in Jared/Theresa/Ethan because I despire Ethan and LOVE JARESA. Plus, Lindsey Hartley is one of the few actors on PSNS that can turn crap into gold. Yes, Theresa has lost some spark but what character wouldn't when you drag a story out past 7 years?

As for the rest of the stories, BORING!!!

Fox/Kay/Miguel is a trainwreck and I don't feel like sitting by and enjoying character destruction in that story and in the Sheridan/Luis/Fancy story and Chad/Whitney stories. I love LUCY but what they are doing to Sheridan is sickening. I like an edgy Sheridan but not one that seems to be going psychotic.

I hate what they've done to Grace and, other then Noah/Paloma and Tabitha/Endora, the show is just a mess.

I will comment on the episode when it's finished but, so far, the Ivy/Sam scenes are good but that's it. Of course, we now know that the other Crane's daughter's name is Pretty :rolleyes:

LOVED the Ivy/Sam scenes. Lots of history there and, wow some character growth for Ivy.

Why do I get the feeling Ivy is going to be pregnant since she slept with both Julian and Sam? Surprised no one has mentioned that but I can see it coming. Ivy will then get back into Sam's good graces and that will set up Grace's inevitable rise from the dead. I actually could like that story.

The rest was blah. I love how they all trust lie detectors when they aren't very reliable and can be easily fooled. I was not into my Jaresa today.

The wedding I could care less about.

Sheridan/Luis/Fancy is just a wreck. MW is doing well but I can't stand what they are doing. I love Lucy but the character destruction of Sheridan is ruining the whole story for me.

Very boring episode. 2007 so far has been decent but that isn't saying much.

How some others found today boring is beyond me, because I thought today was actually very good. I think Sheridan turning evil is pretty believable considering everything she has been through. Sheridan has been a trainwreck from the beginning, but she has been through an awful lot the last 7 1/2 years and losing two children within days of each other would most definitely change someone. I think it's a neat twist that Sheridan is turning into what she despised most about her father.

I also believe that Ivy is going to be preggers too. I'm intigued by that as well. I love Theresa and Jared. Ethan is an ass and deserves to be ALONE.

I think I want Sam and Pilar to have an affair ;)

WOW, Phoenix.

Are we watching the same show?

Um, today's episode was INCREDIBLY entertaining.

Starting with Lucy and Sheridan in Fancy's bedroom.

FINALLY. Luis didn't believe Fancy's claims against Sheridan. The truth is out about MeanSheridan and yet-- it isn't. How can you NOT be intrigued?! History has repeated itself from when Luis took "the other woman's" side when he was with Sheridan. And Sheridan wanted that all along: for Luis to believe her and not Fancy. Sheridan is undermining the Lucy pairing and, though I hate seeing Fancy hurt and Luis falling for it -- again, I am LOVING this story!!! I can't stop smiling while watching it.

I just can't wait for the inevitable reveal when Luis walks in on Sheridan during an evil deed and realizes -- as he had before, with Sheridan, ironically -- that his LOVER was telling the truth. Dang, Luis just doesn't learn! What a jerk!!!

Oh, my God. Sheridan lays it on thick for Luis. She could fool anybody! Can I just say HOW MUCH I LOVE this story?!!! THANK YOU James E. Reilly, NBC, "Passions" and Outpost Farm Productions! This IS the story of the year.

Oh, snap!

Jared sounds SO desperate! He sounds like a girl!!! 'I wanted you since the day I met you.' HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. What a girl!!!!! I can't believe I was ever a Jaresa fan. ET aaaaaaaaaaaaaaall the way.

Sam and Ivy were cute but there was a problem -- wasn't this pretty mcuh the SAME conversation that Ivy and Sam had at Sheridan and Luis' engagement party in 2001? (I believe that was the one). Or maybe it was at Ethan and Gwen's engagement party back in 2000. Because whenever these two get together, Ivy always just convinces Sam to love her. She's desperate, too! Don't get me wrong, she looked incredible (at all these parties; Ivy always does), but she just says the same thing over and over again at these parties, and the years just go by, lol. Same old, same old.

Oh, snap!

McKenzie has her demented/psycho face down pat.

Oh, crap! She really DID take the button!! You RAPE-ASSISTING WHORE!!! I love it!!! (I'm watching this "live" on tape, lol)... My GOD, what a meanie!! I LOVE THIS STORYLINE!!!!!

What a great episode. Just finished it and L-O-V-E-D it.

Again, sorry, Phoe, I'm afraid you were watching a different show and just thought you were watching "Passions."

Remember, don't mix pills with wine. Plays tricks on the mind. :P

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
