Fantastic show today, really good and really balanced. The Carly and Jack scenes as always made me cry, God I have missed there great on screen chemistry, I hope they are back together very soon. I also really liked the Alison/Lance/Dusty/Emily/Susan stuff very good drama, and I am really getting into this storyline alot more. Also the Chemistry with Emily and Dusty is very good, and it would almost be interesting to see them hook-up, I know it is sick after what she did to him, but still. Also like the fact that we got to see Margo today also like the Luke and Maddie scenes near the end, I always like the show better when we have characters coming in and out throughout the whole hour it shows balance and it makes this so much better. So far I would give this week an A. Tomorrow's show looks like another winner.

I absolutely agree,this was a great show.A very well written show today.

Michael and Maura have such great chemistry together. I loved the touch of Katie seeing the family picture in Jack's desk. She has got to know she is facing a losing battle.

I am liking Maddie again. She got on my bad list during that Adam thing. The scenes with Vienna and Luke were great.

They sure are setting up Noah's entrance with Luke complaining about him showing up.

Loved the preview of Carly and the kids.

It was great seeing Jack and Carly together again. I kind of grumbled at some of the dialogue, which never allows Carly to defend herself in the least, but that's unfortunately nothing new. I did however, love the part where she said she couldn't go on pretending to be someone she wasn't (Simon's Moll du jour) and that part of her just died when she left. Oh, tomorrow, with the kids should just be heartbreaking.

I can get where they're going with Dusty/Em...but it's a little too cutesy, and a little too forced for me to believe. And I HATED Em laying the blame on Susan for her and Ali's problems. It used to be that whenever Em got herself into trouble, she'd blame Susan's drinking and her rotten childhood. Now, it's like the same thing..."we have to hide things to not upset Mom.." WTFever. Susan's been a great mom to Ali, and now they're just going to rewrite history. And what was that thing about Em knowing Ali and Aaron weren't in a good place when Ali left? Ugh...history rewrites piss me off.

Henry and Vienna were great.

Katie is a smug little bitch. Did you see that smile when she heard Jack was listing his house? DIE KATIE DIE!!!!!

The Carly and Jack scenes were great, but I don't want them back together. They were divorced and apart when she left so why would they reunite now? And she hasn't said she doesn't still love Simon. She seems to still love him, although Jack will always be a part of her life. They are going out of their way to make Simon look good in all this. I want Jack to move on with Katie. Looks like Parker is going to give her a lashing tomorrow.

Loved the Luke/Maddie scenes. And the first mention of Noah!

Don't care about Dusty/Emily/Alison. If this were more about Susan I would care more.

:huh: They had scenes together?

Today's show was better than yesterday's. Loved all of the Carly and Jack scenes. Also enjoyed Maddie and Luke. Tomorrow's show looks really good!

Oh Gawd...NO! Sorry Roger but you are wrong about this one! ;)

This will sound very unPC, but this is one time I want a HUGE, Alexis and Krystal style SMACKDOWN, with Carly getting to unload a year-plus worth's of whoop ass on Fluffy. The Fluffy praise on this show is sickening. She hasn't paided for a damn thing in years, and I hope Carly gets to put that b!tch in her place.

    • This opened my eyes and appeals to my logic. But, don't you also think that the fact that they are so ill-suited means that, by soap-opera-laws, they aren't a long term item?  I like how Belle is written now, so I appreciate the fact that she is in this story.  But, I don't believe anything will become of it, and I think EJ is going to mess it up very soon.
    • Kristen also raped John post-Paris with a Magic Mirror.  Her pregnancy was "delicate" and they couldn't be intimate.  She had already lost the baby, needed to get pregnant immediately again and set a Stefano tricked out Magic Mirror to hypnotize John and John thought he was  having sex with Marlena.  John woke up the next day and thought it was a dream.
    • The show is only a few months in and still finding it's footing. I'm hoping MVJ has years of story in place for these characters and will pretty much stick to that plan (obviously with tweaking along the way) I do have some issues with the initial structure. Making the Duprees the centerpiece and not having a male with that name. Making Martin Vernon and Anita's would have solved that and made the age of the character more appropriate. I agree about not having a young couple in the beginnings of a romance. And having too many married couples. Jacob and Naomi could be just living together. That makes the possibility of other relationships more viable than within a marriage. Same with Smitty/Martin. Having them married with kids limits the story especially in terms of them as a gay couple.  The white characters existing in another universe is also a problem. That ties in with the workplace/job issues. I don't think they needed the hospital-instead the police station/real estate office or Martin's workplace could have utilized and have Derek/Ashley/Vanessa/Smitty/Shanice etc working and interacting there. ATM too many characters are meeting up in cafes etc-we're not seeing them at work. We needed to see more of how various characters interact eg Jacob/Bill, Ted/Bill. There were a lot of extended family scenes but there should be more one on one to get a sense of character and family dynamics. Leslie is a great character but her bag of tricks is getting over exposed. I would hate that she is kept on and other character's made to look like idiots by accepting her presence. They'll need some good writing and twists to keep her around. We can only hope some of the lesser actors improve as I don't want too many recasts or writeouts. So it's early days and I look forward to seeing the show evolve. And give the Duprees some staff!
    • Thanks. I barely remember any of the backstory there, just his ties to her parents. It was all so convoluted, everything with Tangie.
    • 81 and 82 were rather bad, with the infamous invasion of the Kirkland family. But sometime in late 82 or early 83, Claire Labine was rehired as head-writer and immediately put the focus back on the Ryan's. This time Labine's tenure was short, but she did great work. The entire show was compelling again -- especially the Charlotte Greer storyline (one of the best plots of the entire series).  But Labine was fired, yet again, and Ryan's Bar was bombed, resulting in most of the action being transferred to Greenberg's Deli, and a focus on younger characters with little connection to the Ryan family. So that is what you are probably seeing from 84.   
    • It wasn't that altruistic. He made Tangie a substitute for Blake and was apparently so creepy about it that Tangie spent the years in between getting away from him and running into him in Springfield believing that he had purchased her to be his child bride. It was only when she got to know Blake that she realized that she realized his feelings for her were paternal and suddenly she and Roger became friends.
    • When I watched 1999 Daytime Emmys in real time, I was like "Daytime Emmys will never top this" and that's exactly what happened (at least IMO).
    • Yes in Sami's case lots of people took issue with her being with Dumbell Austin outside of the Carrie issue, cause she drugged him and raped him by pretending to be Carrie. Austin didn't consent & well Ejami fans have used that as a smokescreen against the backlash of Sami & EJ being paired. It's also not so much as being paired with someone period, but paired with his victim & his victim sister. That's a line that should never be crossed by Belle/EJ esp Belle cause Sami isn't the only person in her family that EJ has terrorized. For all points and purposes since she was aged to a teen, Belle has been a daddy's girl so on top of the betrayal when it comes to Sami it's also with John. He ran him down & murdered him after raping her sister. On top of all the other evil [!@#$%^&*] he has done. "Good dick", ONS with a monster one time is one thing we all have lapses of judgements, it's whole different thing to be a whole bird who throws her self respect out the window for a roll in the hay relationship with a monster & act like you have selective amnesia about his many crimes towards your family. While getting on your self righteous hoiler than thou horse about others. No there wouldn't be as much as outrage if he was paired with someone like his equally rapey Black family terrorizing sister, or Ava, Gabi or even Nicole. So it's not as much as about him being paired with someone period, it's more of who he should never be paired with his rape victim, her sister's or anyone in the family of the man he viciously ran down. I don't expect much of anything from EJ but I expect a lot more from Belle. As far as Kristen goes Brady has been called everything but the word of God rightfully so for being with his rapist, his brothers rapist, the psycho who terrorized his parents for decades, family, the woman he claimed to love after she violated her by using a mask of her face

      to pretend to be her so he would sleep with her. Drugging his sister ie,: Sami. If Kristen was paired with someone that wasn't her victim or victims like Alex, Xander, [!@#$%^&*] even Ben no one would really care for the most part. So I hope this gives you a little insight and I hope you know I wasn't trying to be rude.
    • Speaking of Emily, I really wish that Marie Masters could do a Locher Room. I haven’t seen anything about her in years!
    • 1980/81 Dallas was a killer show. 18/23 episodes finished #1 and the remaining five finished 2nd.
