I didn't mind Tate, but I just wish they'd use the characters/actors on canvas rather then bring all these newbies in, because I for one want to see more of Viki/Clint and hate it when all their scenes are pushed into one show. Hopefully we'll be getting more of an even keel, since I do believe changes are being made, just wish we'd see them sooner. LOL.

I'm not a Chris Beetem (sp?) fan at all. I hated him on ATWT, but he seems to be a popular actor, so I have a feeling he'll win people over. Just not me. :P

I'm not feeling Starr and Cole either. I felt sorry for Cole when the kids made fun of him at assembly, but it's hard for me to buy him in this love story. He's not that good at romantic angst, imo.

I'm pretty excited to see what Spencer is up to. Todays's episode should be really good.

I could use a lot more Roxy on this show. A scene of her visiting Rex in the slammer was begging to be written.

I liked it. I haven't been a regular viewer in years so I haven't had the opportunity to be sick of anyone yet ( well, maybe John McBone) and I thought the whole will thing was quite well executed. Marcie and Star were nice together. Dorian made me laugh. I like Lindsay. Loved the reveal at the end of the will.

Oh my, I loved the dispensing of Spencer's so called gifts. They were so well suited, especially to Marty, Vangie and Dorian. I freaking loved the mirror he left to Dorian, god, that was priceless and I think the best suited. I could not stop laughing. WTG Spencer!!!

Am excited to see more of this Miles character, so hopefully they don't shove him at us like they did Spencer and make me dislike before him before he really gets started.

Still not feeling this Cole/Starr thing going on, and I can't believe that she went to Marcie, a teacher of hers and asked her to help them.

I sure hope Lindsay lets her conscience talk her out of getting in between Bo and Paige, I'd like to see him fall for her for real, in a more natural setting then being tricked, because everytime Dorian has a scheme it blows up in her face and I don't want to see Lindsay in the middle of it all.

I thought today's show was a lot better than yesterday's.

Ok Spencer rocked yesturday. I mean seriously he had the last laugh with all the gifts he gave out. I mean they fit everyone to a t. I also have to say was Spencer hinting to Vangie that he knows more to her beleiving in Todd than she realizes. Interesting in deed.

Also Todd you poor thing you see your kids blanket and cant do anything about it.

People may have thought he was hot (I didn't, but I guess that's because I'm not gay or a woman :P), but I'm sure some did.

As for BethAnn, she is five times better than he was, she is 30 times better. Mikey Jerome couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, and he looked like he was as dumb as a post.

I like BethAnn...she has been slowly introduced and NOT stuffed down our throats like so many others, and she looks pretty hot when she lets her hair down and gets to wear something other than a police uniform.

I agree with you Scotty, about Beth Ann - I like her character and like you said, she hasn't been crammed down our throats by being thrown into every s/l or by interacting with the rest of LLanview (like NuMarty was). Talia was slowly introduced to the viewers and at first, just shown in her "working" capacity/environment.

I am actually liking the show right now, because so far (knock on wood) there's been no clue to the viewers as to who the arsonist is at this point and same with Spencer's murder (I think it'll be Paige who will have done the dirty deed but I'm really hoping it's Nu-Marty). Plus, cast interaction has improved, along with more usage of the vets. And, is it just me, or has the pacing of s/l seemed to have picked up some?

Just to give everyone a heads up....this week the OLTL spoilers will not be posted until Friday evening, at around 8 or 9 pm once I return from class. Because of the heavy board traffic caused by the ABC spoilers, our message board has experienced some issues with the board going down. This has caused us to try re-arranging our ABC soap preview posting schedule...this week the GH previews will be posted on Thursday, AMC on Friday morning, and OLTL on Friday evening. That could change for the following week, but that's how we're doing it this week.

Just thought I would give everyone a heads up. :)

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • @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?
