Passions: Monday, April 2nd Discussion


Recommended Posts

  • Members

So, I've been taping Passions, but today is the first today in months that I got to see it live. I haven't been going back to watch my tapes, but I just had to see what's going on today. I'm just shocked at the destruction of Theresa/Jared's relationship. How did it come to this? As for Ethan, I'm sick of him. He only wants Theresa when she's not after him. Why can't he just admit he loves her and stop playing with her mind and heart? I just bursted out laughing when he had the audacity to blame Theresa for not waiting for 2 minutes! LMAO. Is he kidding me? I feel bad for Jared, but how dumb can he be? It doesn't take a rock scientist to know Theresa still wants Ethan.

As for Chad and his lover, that was gross. I feel like it's out of character for him. OldChad would never ever do this. How could he do this to the love of his life? Now, is the lover hired by Alistar or something or is he really in love with Chad? Oh and what's up with Fancy and Luis? Is Sheridan still evil? I'm really losing hope on Lancy here. BTW, what's going on with Simone? Why is she so pissed at Luis?

So far, Passions is really interesting. I think it may be because Fox, Miguel, and Kay aren't on today. I hate them with a passion now. lol

Vincent's a tabloid reporter and sleazy. I think he's the blackmailer and may be the same person as Valerie.

The stalker(s) raped Fancy a second time, and planted Luis' semen into Fancy. When it was found by a rape kit, mistrust entered the relationship. Also, Fancy awoke to find Luis holding a jar of acid, which had been splashed on her. What she did not see was an attacker in white running away from the bedroom. Sheridan has been trying to force Fancy to leave town, and Sheridan has used Marty's memory to manipulate Luis' emotions.

Simone's girlfriend, Rae, had information about who raped Fancy and sexually assaulted Luis. The person killed Rae and placed Luis' chain in Rae's dead hands. Luis is charged with Rae's murder. He's escaped 3 times.

Last week's episodes were good and so were most of March's episodes. I suggest watching those if they are recorded. Any episode without Fox, Kay, and Miguel is to be treasured. Thankfully, they did not pollute the screen as much during March.

Wow, I don't know this for sure but I'm almost POSITIVE that after all that buildup Ethan gave for the importance of seeing the walls of that apartment, come tomorrow, we'll learn the blackmailer STRIPPED ALL THE PHOTOS OFF THE WALL!! :o

So that will be bad.

But WHOA, WHOA WHOAAAA about that preview for tomorrow.

I haven't read a spoiler that said tomorrow is the big 'Chad screws guys' reveal, but it almost looks that way from the preview! I mean why else would Whit say, "NEVER in my wildest dreams!" when she sees Vinny at the no tell motel? !!

The past 3 episodes have been very good. The lack of Fox/Kay/Miguel and the focus off rape has improved the show immensely.

Jaresa is dead to me and ET is turning back into something I can root for again because of Eric and Lindsey. Eric has raised his game of late and Lindsey's acting suggests she is bored with the Jared pairing because with Eric and her other cast members she is shining. Her spark is coming back. I know the walls of the hideout are probably empty but whatever. I am still liking the show.

Also, THANK YOU JER FOR BRINGING IVY BACK INTO THERESA'S ORBIT!! She should be there. With Rebecca MIA and Gwen gone, she needs a rival. Love Julian/Ivy together too.

I like the Whitney/Chad/Vincent stuff. I know it probably isn't coming out but I can tell they are building to a big reveal later on. I was entertained though.

Emily Harper rocked today and great to see Simone active.

3 in a roll for Passions. I hope it keeps up.

Yes, good episode today, but the rest of the week's episodes seem like they will be boring except for several scenes.

Oh, well...I expect things to heat up again next week. Passions does events well, mainly due to multiple characters interacting who normally don't.

May should be awesome.

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982. Morgan Fairchild, Barbara Rush. Developed by Rita Lakin.   
    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.

    • I decided this primetime soap deserved it's own thread as the Primetime soaps thread is very cluttered and why shouldn't NBC's Lorimar soap mot have a chance to shine? In doing a deeper dive into the second season ratings I was surprised to see that FR actually had an uptick in the ratings when NBC moved it to 9pm Tuesdays beginning March 82. I'd always assumed this move was a desperate one as NBC were running short of programming and had given up on the show,deciding to let the final episodes play out and be hammered by 3's Company  and CBS Movie. But the numbers paint a different story. In it's 10pm slot up against Hart to Hart, which regularly finished in the Top 20, FL premiered in 53rd place and placed in the 40's and 50's as the season continued. But come January 82 the numbers surged a little now moving into the 40's hitting #43 in Feb. Hart to Hart was #11 Then in March Bret Maverick was moved to 8pm with FR @9. First week 16th March FR #47 15.1/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Not great but #2 in it's timeslot March 23 FR #44 15.6/25 3's Company #4 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #33 So even with a stronger movie on CBS FR's numbers went up. March 30 FR #31 16.6/26 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #56 Best rating/position yet Tues April 6 pre empted Tues April 14 FR #36 16.0/26 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #11 CBS Movie #59 Maintaining previous week's numbers Tues April 21 FR #33 15.6/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Numbers down a little (reflecting general spring downturn) but best ranking of the season so far Tues April 28 FR #35 15.1/23 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #6 CBS Movie #42 Tues May 4 FR #27 15.2/24 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #4 CBS Movie #41 Season finale and highest position of the season. Looking at those numbers I wonder why NBC cancelled the show? They had very few hits and here was a show that was holding it's own and moving up in the rankings in a tougher timeslot. And being a serial, the storylines could continue to build the following season. And I'm sure the desirable W18-49 demo was good. Some might argue that CBS were shower weaker movies, but even so, soap viewers are pretty loyal. I guess Grant Tinker arrived at NBC and wanted a classier look but there was room for FR on the schedule. I mean, the following season Knight Rider,Powers of Matthew Star and the A Team arrived so there was still room for more populist fare. Flamingo could have stayed at 9pm-the replacement Gavilan bombed (surely FR would have done better} or moved back to 10pm. The following Jan NBC had a hit with A Team Tues 8pm. Had Flamingo followed it, it might have really taken off. As it was they tried Bare Essence, which flopped. Oh well,it was not to be...    
    • Always, in every way, Cass/Wally/Felicia foundational to my viewing. And, I think if we look at the aftermath of the disastrous 90 minute show that we find too many pockets of some kind of lost time at the show plus way too much of change-ups in exec & writing leadership and of course we also reach the first time it becomes notable that NBC wants to get rid of the show so they can put a new soap they own in the timeslot.
