Did the little birdie tell you why? It seems obvious this is true especially since much of what Father Clarence (who knows all) told Dixie ("Your journey isn't over yet", etc.) and Tad (Giving him hope that things would be better and everything would be okay) makes absolutely no sense ... not that much of what he said made sense anyway even if Dixie was still alive. Why would a priest/angel encourage someone to lie about the paternity of an unborn baby in order to protect the Hobilly, her Baby Doll and Adam from being upset by spewing things about the greater good, blah blah? And I will never forgive the heartless coot for giving Kate to Julia before Dixie was even cold.

Why not? Does she have incriminating pictures of Fronsie or one of the other IIC? IMO, JHC should be the first to go followed by several script writers.

I agree and that is another reason why I have given up.

Nothing from MMT either. But remember Alexa was pimping it as a good thing and of course JHC who opened mouth and inserted feet. UGH!

It looked like he was crying. His eyes were red in those last scenes when he asked her out for a date too. It's almost like he looks more teary-eyed when he was starting to reunite with Dixie because he knew Cady had been fired than he does now after Dixie died.

I don't blame JHC for any of this. I still love her and thinks she's one of the better executive producers around. I think she is being put out there to take the blame when it really came from the higher ups (i.e. Brian Frons).

LOVED Kendall telling off Ryan! :D

I like Raymond, he's a keeper.

Was was the point of Ryan today anyways? Even Aidan knew that he wouldn't be needed, so Ryan just hangs around? :blink::rolleyes:

Preview :wub:

Cady had to have pissed someone higher up off, cause Dixie's death was so sadistic compared to Simone and Erin's and very personal, killing Dixie off with Cady's favorite food

Getting sort of "off"-topic...

Di, today. Her anxiety during the killer talk at Wildwind was abnormal. In my opinion, it wasn't just mourning anxiety either, it was shifty-eye anxiety as well (like their was a weight on her). The way the camera sort of focused on her reacting to certain elemets of the conversation was telling. Maybe it's just a red-herring.

SPOILERISH

And don't say Tz didn't warn you come Wednesday. I was surprised nobody showed up with a memorial statue of Babe when I read the previews for that week. Heh.

After today's show I have to say that if Di is not involved somehow with the murders (and I don't think she is because of the homeless *man* spoiler), Kelli Giddish needs better direction. Throughout this whole story her acting choices in scenes have made her look very guilty and suspicious and I don't think it's part of a conscious effort by TPTB to make Di a red herring...because they aren't that smart.

I won't be watching today's show but I don't see how they could even put Di in as a red-herring as last week we saw her whisper a private vow to Dixie's coffin that they were going to catch the person who did this. All these red-herrings (Kenny, Zarf, Jenkins and now Di) are really dumb.

As far as that "spoiler", it's what everyone already knew anyway - everything is All About Babe.

From the get go Di has always been in the back of my mind as a suspect and I noticed her being uneasy too. I doubt she's the killer but it would explain why she is the one most upset about Dixie's death... she meant to get Babe.

She could just be using the whole Zach thing to throw people off.

I mean Di being the killer (as much as I would hate to lose Kelli) would be a very interesting way to end this story.....

But, alas AMC writers will not be that creative. It will be someone totally random, someone the viewers will be like that's it?

I have no confidence in this story now. None.

If I had to lose Dixie, I'd want at least a somewhat interesting reveal.... not have her die at the hands of a nobody. Di accidently killing her sister WOW. What a story, but like I said won't happen.

    • 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.
