With HBS saying in an interview that Nora moves in with Asa, I have a feeling she's a victim of the arsonist. What other reason would cause her to move in there. I so can't wait to see more of Clint and Viki interacting. But it would be nice to see Bo and Nora interact if even if it's over Truman's murder or the Arson case.

What I find odd about this murder is that everyone is acting like this is first degree murder. WTH? :blink: Spencer was in the middle of attacking Blair. Whoever did it should have just admitted it right away and claimed defence of another person. I wouldn't convict if I were on the jury.

Rex and Bo were great. I loved seeing Roxie.

I bet Natalie took fibers that would have actually helped prove John (and Rex) is innocent when the police come a knockin on his door. :rolleyes: I liked her yesterday, but what a dumb move.

I just don't understand the POV some of these characters are expressing. If I ever walked in on a rape, I pray to God I would be capable of stabbing the rapist with whatever is handy. I have no idea if I could, but it's far from murder imo. The way people keep saying Rex isn't capable of murder and Todd saying "do you think I'm crazy enough to have killed Spencer?" is just so far from how I see this situation. Spencer was huge. There is no way Rex could have just pulled him off Blair. If the killer had gone for help Spencer might have killed Blair or taken her hostage ect.

I hope we get a see with Roxie visiting Rex in jail. :lol:

I have to ask, when oh when will OLTL and ABCD learn? I have come to the conclusion that they will never learn and that they don't know how good a show OLTL is.

For the past two weeks, we have seen a great mix of characters, some really good stories and something for many fans to watch. So what happens this week when sweeps begins?? OLTL returns to the same old [!@#$%^&*]. There has been one story this week and only one story. It has been who killed Spencer. Now if you don't care who killed Spencer and I don't, then why watch the show? Do I watch it for the one day a week that there is anything else?

Come on ABCD, pull you head out of your butt and recognize what works. What works is a mix of stories focusing on a lot of characters. If ABCD is incapable of doing that, then I suggest turning and watching DOOL. They seem to be doing it right now.

Well, today's show wasn't the best of the week...but it wasn't too bad.

The Marcie/Michael stuff was the best. And poor Marcie today when Michael snapped at her. Don't you be doing that to my woman big guy. :angry: But I did love it when Michael said he would do anything to protect his family.

Poor Viki....she was back to wallpaper today.

Could have done without John and Natalie.

Todd and Blair were ok...I liked Starr though.

Yea! More Lindsay!

Rex and Adriana were tolerable.

I think this 'who killed Spencer?' storyline should be a good one.

Talia is growing on me.

Antonio and Bo were boring.

Tomorrow looks a little better....Addie is on tomorrow! :)

Yeah, I guess the Spencer murder mystery will be front and center for the next few weeks. I guess it doesn't bother me that much because I love some of the people involved, especially Michael and Marcie. I can't wait to see what the next few weeks holds for them. It does seem like Vikki and Clint are getting a story too, so I look forward to that and Jess and Nash.

I am at the point where I dont care who killed Spencer just happy they did so already.

It was great to see John and Vangie. I forgot how good he is when not around Natalie.

I know I am in the few but I just love TSJ. The cops on this show are stupid why is Todd the first suspect, the list is too long to count but lets go to Todd first. I love seeing Addie back.

The show is picking up but I think I see a little Y&R feel in the show now and I am starting to enjoy it.

    • @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.
