They wanted the Carey clan to be suffer a bit and have their happy ending then fine, but they did NOT have to demonize Adam in the process. He is teh victim here just like anyone else yet he gets trashed for feeling any type of pain after the love of his life (AMC's trash, not mine) tore his heart out and stomped over it with her trailer park payless shoes and everoyone else verbally and mentally beating up on him. Of course he hasnt been completely innocent, but they really went overboard to show he is an SOB to justify what Krystal and company did and to make him teh villian when he is probably the one that deserves teh most sympathy

<smallvoice> I kind of do. I remember similar feelings when Days went through its transition last summer -- awkward so-called redemptions and pacing, albiet countered by nice balance and character moments. The comparison might not be worth much, just thought I'd offer it up.

I also loved the Janet/Tad and Amanda/Adam scenes.

My favorite part yesterday was Adam turning the tables on JR, who imo is betraying his father by choosing Tad & the Careys over him. Adam's heart attack could have given JR the chance to make amends and instead he tried to trick his father into a confession.

Erica is the perfect choice to catch Sean & Ava since she was a teen temptress, too. I like her mother/son scenes with Sean and I think she'll probably end up helping Colby land him this summer.

I hate to judge an actress this early, but I have to agree that Sabine is not Greenlee. She lacks the smug snobbishness that Rebecca brought to the part, which made sense since Greenlee was raised to think the Smythes were superior to everyone else. Alicia did her best to salvage the scenes, but even her tears didn't make me believe this was Greenlee with Kendall.

I also agree that Jenny's kidnapping felt truncated. I feel torn about that. On the one hand, I wish Krystal had gone 10 months without her child for the sake of karma, on the other hand, at least McT's drawn-out storytelling style is over, which makes the entire show more entertaining.

IMO Tad and KWAK haven't suffered enough. When they go 9 moths believing their child is dead, while off with Janet or someone who will actually love her and raise her right, then I might say they've suffered enough.

Right now they got off easy once again. I only wish Bianca could have gotten Miranda back that fast :angry:

That is what I have been thinking recently as well.

Yesterday's episode was another great episode I love that AMC is heading in this direction. I loved practically every scene yesterday. Especially the Tad/Janet scenes and any scene with Amanda.

It's still kind of hard to watch Sabine's Greenlee. I want to give her a chance and I am hope that she will grow on me.

My problem with not Greens is not that she is not Rebecca's Greens because Bex is a tough act to follow. I'm not saying that Bex is a tremendous actress, but Greens was a unique character, and Rebecca put her stamp on the role. It would be tough for anyone. Sabine is ok in the acting department, but I think she needs to bring it down a notch for 2 reasons:

First being - it's annoying! notGreens and Ken together would bug the hell out of me.

And secondly but more important, why in the sam hell is this girl so perky anyway? She should not have returned as if nothing happened. She should still be angry and her wanting "Kenlee" back is just stupid! The writing for notGreens is all wrong, so there is really nothing to look forward to.

As for Ryan and Annie... They would be a nice couple if I could only tolerate Cameron (I'm so passed being annoyed with him), and I don't think the show did enough with Annie to make us root for her and Jughead. She went from Annie on the run to Annie/Ryan. Exactly who is this person as an individual? The character was not developed enough and then to chain her to that moron Lavery. Nothing to root for.

I totally agree. These days this show is too busy trying to pair off people, make instant couples, instead of letting the audience get a little insight as to who these people are, what they're about, decide whether or not we like them and THEN start testing the waters.

It's like Simone. For the longest time, we've been wanting her paired up with somebody because viewers cared about Simone and wanted to see her in a relationship. When it finally happens, they date off screen, and then get engaged out of the blue?! Two months later, Ethan's dead, and we're supposed to believe Simone is incredibly torn up over losing this guy... when we've seen NOTHING of their relationship because it all happened off screen. I feel the same way about Annie/Ryan. They went on, like, one date, find out that Emma's Ryan's biological daughter, and next we know Annie's in love and they're planning to get married?!? :blink:

Does Annie have any parents? What's Annie's maiden name? Why hasn't the show even given Annie ANY last name in the closing credits? It's only MCE as Annie. No McDermott? No Schmidt? No nothin'?

Greenlee has to hate Kendall. I mean Kendall now has everything she wanted and had. Greenlee had a successful company, a loving husband and desperately wanted a baby of her own. Kendall heads Fusion, has a great marriage with Zach and the baby with Ryan that was supposed to be for Greenlee. She also has to resent Ryan bc him not wanting kids pretty much ruined their marriage. His demons from his childhood haunted him and caused all types of problems. Now Ryan has 2 kids whom he loves and he's planning on having more. He's perfectly find with his past and has moved on. Why couldnt all of this happen when she was married to him? Greenlee is a very jealous, selfish and self centered person. Its in her nature to resent those 2 especially since she had so much hate in her before and after she left. This sudden change is too drastic. She better be fooling Kendall but I think she's genuine

    • I'm not intrigued by Cat.  I find her annoying.  I just ... no.

      RIP Chris Robinson- his Jason Frame was one of AW’s better villains.  Jason’s murder mystery was one of AW’s best- practically the entire cast was a suspect!

    • She might be using Anita like she planned to do before. If so, I suspect Tracy is not in on it. I'm not sure if this was revealed yet - I didn't watch 6/11 yet.

    • I feel like they have already been rested as it is. I've rarely seen a cancer story for a major character treated as casually as it was with Alfie. I would probably write him out and have Kat on her own as they seem to have no ability to write for a serious Alfie or to rein Shane in.
    • I hate to say it: but, at this point, I'd marry off Alfie and Kat, and then rest them off-canvas for a period of time.
    • Oh, I hear what you're saying. People these days will follow anyone whether they have substance or not. 
    • @Liberty City @MichaelGL I could believe the possible spoiler about another landlady as Kat seems likely temporary/placeholder to me.  I don't hate the idea of Kat being in the Vic, especially as the overhyped drag parody that is Elaine (even if they have belatedly tried to humanize her) and dullard George and his dull children do nothing for me. I just wish Kat was in a stronger place. They have shown so little of her in the last few years in stories that should have been stronger than they are, and it's not just because of Jessie's suspensions or injury breaks.
    • Yep, when Kim was bonked over the head during the harrowing tornado, she was in love with that grinning, happy, big-haired Dan who looked as though he belonged on The Brady Bunch.  (Reilly) By the time she finally regained her memory fully and shook herself free of John Dixon (didn't she get pregnant with Andy during all of this?), she was stuck with that sad-eyed, grouchier Dan who'd been Dan several years earlier (Colenback).  The Bolivia trip was probably the switchover.   
    • I'm clinging to the fact that it was Jill in charge when GV last got "treatment" from GH. Praying he has no reason to blame Frank. Love2Hate Drew seems multiple choice: redemption or discovery of his not-Drewness which means they've got Drew tucked somewhere, probably where NotBritt has been kept. I have only one thing to say about JJ. Clearly he has a future in PR or politics. Who knew he could tell a tale so well?
