I really think today's ATWT was a very good show, it had lots of drama with Margo and Tom, with Bob included loved all those scenes today along with Katie talking to Margo, totally loved the family interaction(looks like tomorrow will even be better in that respect) I even sort of was ok with the Simon/Carly/Jack/Adolpho/V scenes(thought it really needs to end) Finally I am really beginning to like Emily and Dusty in scenes together, there chemistry is really good. For some reason I am starting to like Craig again, that could be because he has not been on every single day. Also totally loved the Lily/Holden/Faith scenes. Most of all though I really enjoyed the balance today, I think we had at least 4 storylines going today, which is great and much better than the 2 a day we had been getting for a long time now.

Yes, balance it the key. My favorite part of the show was definetly Margo/Tom/Bob. Even though Katie was there it was obvious they(the writers) were pimping her to Mike. :rolleyes: I just want the Simon/Carly mess to end already. I hate Simon so much. Thursday can't come soon enough for me. I thought the Lily/Holden scenes were nicely done. At least Faith wasn't being a brat today...LOL.

I was waiting for Lisa to appear but she won't be on till tomorrow. I can't wait to see her.

The only parts that I liked were the Lily/Holden/Faith things and the Tom/Margo/Katie/Bob things. It reminds me of an episode of AMC from last week - had they edited out everything except scenes dealing with the above, it would have been a perfect show for me.

Can't wait for tomorrow with Lisa and Casey finding out about Tom's heart attack. Lisa looked like she was ready to take someone's head off...

Someone took him. Emily thinks it is Craig. Craig sold his part of the newspaper to someone else. The new partner tired to get Emily to sell her part of the newspaper. Emily refused and the partner said she would regret not selling to him.

Technically he is missing but Emily thinks that Craig had him Kidnapped as an act of revenge for what she did to him, so far we really don't know who did it though, it could be this mysterious guy named Tull. But of course in my dreams it will be James, but I am not holding my breath for that one to happen. :(

I pretty much agree with you there, the scenes were ok, to me but I am totally get sick of them and what it to end. I am really trying to figure out how they are going to redeam Carly after all this mess, she is digging her grave more and more every day. :(

And the picture of JY in soapsuds banner the center one is extremely hot.

Meh....just a so-so eppy. Actually pretty limp way to start the week off.

Good Lord...hated the magical reappearance of Mature, Compassionate, "This isn't about ME" Katie. Why can't TIIC just let her own her b*tchiness? Twenty seconds of compassion are supposed to excuse the last six hypocritical months? GMAFB...and the worst thing is Mike buys in to it, according to the previews.

And could TIIC just stop making Frasier...Simon Frasier, into a really sad clone of Bond, James Bond...???? I almost expect him to drag Carly into some futuristic lab and introduce her to Q and Moneypenny.

Why do they torture us with Jack being "this close" to helping Carly, but only after Simon's "solved" her freakin' problem (after causing the problem in the first place)? It's sooooo not fair!

Dumily....well, at least this time there's a reason Dusty is in charge of finding Daniel. All the cops Em trusts are busy. :rolleyes:

Sniffle...just caught the new Carjack promo...sniffle...

    • 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.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • 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.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
