Hmm - Hannah is up to something! I haven't read spoilers, so I'm not sure what she does this week to Kendall - but it looks like she's about to steal something??? She leaves this week, so I can't wait to see what happens.

Colby kind of sucks at trying to play it cool...she is being way too obvious that she is hiding something. Adam should call her out on it anytime.

Good - the Rylee divorce is over and we can MOVE ON. Whew. Although I hate to admit this, but those scenes were Ryan and Annie were getting married again, and it would cut to a sad Greenlee flying alone were REALLY sad....haha. But seriously, could we please get over this stupid Dynamite Kiddo decoder ring? That sh!t is too lame for words.

Which brings me to the Fusion scenes - which are great. Kendall is fun today - I loved her "Bionic Momma' line.

Di's hair looks gorgeous today.

Nice to see Julia again. I'm confused with Jamie though - I know he's going to med school - but does that mean he's leaving Pine Valley? He just said something today that made me think he isn't going to live at Wildwind anymore, but you'd think if he were leaving Julia/Kathy, his family, and PV -- that it be made to be a bigger deal than it is right now.

Oh SNAP! Bitchlee (the Greenlee I like) just kicked Babe out of Fusion! She legally can do it too - and she told her to go waitress at BJ's! I wonder what this means for Babe. The writers are definitely giving Babe and Jamie outs...I wonder if Alexa and Justin are really close to leaving - and when will the announcement come? Anyway - loving the Fusion scenes. I actually feel bad for Babe, but this is the Greenlee I love to watch. Keep her away from Ryan and everything is ok.

GO ZACH! Haha - I loved how he just put Greenlee in her place. That was awesome.

The Adam/Colby/Sean stuff is so the Adam/Hayley/Brian remix.

Josh looked so hot sitting there on Kendall's couch, waving at Hannah. Busted! Haha - I liked that.

Nice to see Krystal in tomorrow's previews - I've been missing me some Bobbie Eakes!

Hannah's a freaking psycho bitch. Zen's gonna have to have the condo sprayed after she leaves

LOL I love how suspicious Zach is of her, that's my Zach :D:wub:

Awww ZenSpike

Colby and Adam are so cute, love their scenes.

I actually liked the sonogram scene even if Babe was in it, that was cute.

Someone needs to smack the smirk off of NotLee's face

LMAO she got owned by Zach *giggles*

I had thought that Jamie was saying that he'd be so busy with studies that he wouldn't have time to pal around with the kids any more. But he really doesn't do much on the show.

Enjoyed the show well enough today. I still think this Greenlee feels a little unhinged, but that's not necessarily a bad thing I guess. The Fusion fight was fun, especially when Zach showed up. Sean/Colby/Adam, also fun, I think I'll enjoy those two youngsters.

I'm also spoiler-free so I also don't know what's going on with Hannah ... hope her exit is with a bang.

I love Greenlee! I never really watched the when Rebecca Budig was Greenlee, but I can't see how she could be much better than this one. She's such a bitch and I love it.

I was cracking up during the Adam/Colby/Sean scenes. I really like Colby and Sean together and I hope they go that route instead of Sean and Ava.

Ohhh - you gotta watch some YouTube clips of Rebecca Budig as the original Greenlee...check out her 1999-2003 days. She defintiely was the best Bitchlee - she could hold her own against Erica Kane...and she was such a mean bitch to Bianca and Laura. This new Greenlee plays bitch ok, so far, but her higher pitch whiny scenes with Ryan irritate me.

Glad you're still enjoying the show though :) I also really like Sean/Colby, now that both characters have matured a little.

To be fair RB's Greenlee suckled a** with Ryan as well, the woman of PV can't help it if being a uselss Ryan a**-kisser one of the 10 Commandments of PV life - time has to be put in. Greenlee's long been happy to be head-cheerleader of that camp, save the off-screen time. Ugh, dynamite kiddo and green butterflies.

"I let you carry our [Ryan and Greenlee's] child." Oh...so that was an act of Greenlee being giving and generous to Kendall? Such a Rylee 2004-2005 thing to say. LOL, too bad the two ladies can't get to business old-school, but what's to stop them from throwing stuff at each other?

I just can't like Babe no matter what, so I approved of Greenlee's actions. I don't think I can ever really hate anybody being mean to Babe, it's an attractive quality. It sucked they didn't let Kendall accomplish that particular feat, but Kane children must love Babe (one of those silly Commandments), I guess. I also couldn't wait to see the smirk wiped off Greenlee's face. Nice job, Zach! I even enjoyed all of the women, including Babe, enjoying Greenlee's behind getting smacked-down.

Adam/Colby. I love them, together, I love that Colby went back to her daddy. *sniffles*

Im watching right now and Greenlee just handed Babe's ass to her! LMAO. "Im sure BJs is hiring" "You BITCH!" I loved it! I know Im in hte minority but Im loving the new Greens

LMAO at Zach putting Greenlee in her place. Loved him doing the "math" for her

Im totally getting those familiar Kenlee lesbian vibes. I expected them to start kissing when they were talking alone about how they once loved each other and were planning on having a baby

Wow..... I love Bitchlee! Sabine was working magic with it today. I loved her catty response to Di's question about the trip. "How the hell do you think?" and then Babe calling her a bitch and Greenlee asking her if that was her resignation. LOL Babe working at B.J's would be hilarious.

Zach however putting Greenlee in her place was the highlight of the episode... he has a way of doing that.... so much better than Ryan ever could. He is clever about it. I loved how Kendall didn't want Zach to incriminate himself, man she wuvs him!

Hannah you psycho! I love it! She is so gonna be back down the road.

Shut up Greenlee!

Here we go she starts the sanctimonious pontificating today with Kendall and how Kendall stole her poor precious life now that she has Zach. I think this idiot has short term memory loss because she should recall Kendall telling her she had every intention of giving her the baby when it was due to raise with Super Moron Ryan...what did Greenlee expect Kendall to do on the night of the blackout? Have one of her defrosted eggs implanted into her and hope a baby can be conspired that way? News flash Greenlee-it wouldn't work out! So why not try the second best option with having Kendall use her egg but then give the baby to you once it is born. But Greenlee being the b1tch she is wants everything as one and not about to look at the second best option. God what an idiot this woman is

The Ring Ryan

Wow what a nice little Dynamite Kiddo scene that was where Greenlee shows Ryan her ring but then gives him the bad news: it is not a Dynamite Kiddo ring! Sheesh I wonder what kind of ring this could be: a PMS ring (would explain her mood lately), a Dynamite Zip Zappo ring with powers to turn a rabbit into a tadpole that looks like it had just humped a hyena and got beaten with an ugly stick in the process. But leave it to Ryan to buy just a pathetic little ring to go along with his pathetic relationship with the Green Butterfly. I wonder where he got that money to buy her the stupendous, butterflyish, cartoony, bloomey, goonie, type of ring that she has. Maybe he sold condoms at 1 dollar apiece since the world is well aware he will taint all new babies with his influence and they become dumber than a bucket of rocks like St. Ryan himself....so why watch your child go through that agony? No more procreation I tell ya! Now I wonder what kind of ring Ryan will give Annie...maybe it has powers to assassinate the president with a turd stick or it can separate Russia into Loserville on the left and BungholeVille to the right. Hasta la vista Mr. Communist nation!

Thank you Babe!

For calling Greenlee a b1tch! Finally someone is calling her what I have been calling her for a long time now and yep she deserves it. Greenlee used to be a fun b1tch but not anymore...Babe called a spade a spade and saw if the shoe fits then go with it. Way to go Babe!

I was really bored by the Annie/Ryan/Greenlee scenes, especially the wedding intercut with Greenlee crying on the plane. Who the hell cares?

ICAM with Angela's post about what went down at Fusion; I can never really hate anyone who puts down Babe, but I was glad when Zach showed up and put Greenlee in her place. I hope Greenlee remains a total bitch and stops the crying and whining.

I'm also spoiler free and I'm disappointed that the writers are getting rid of Hannah. Taking the psycho route with her is a bad idea since Stacy is such a great actress and has chemistry with so many of the men. Hannah could have been mixing it up with Adam instead of going after Kendall or whatever BS is coming up.

Adam/Colby/Sean was the highlight of the episode for me.

    • I think it wasn't just some of the poor casting choices that did the show in during its early days, but also the flat writing. Perhaps it was network interference? You'd think the Dobsons would have fought harder for their original vision, but after 6 months they dropped most of it. 
    • Small Bar is a better set than the casino set.
    • The show loses me once the crime stories are in overload.  Heather and Jerry's marriage doesn't excite me. It would have been tawdry, but I think there should have been more lingering in Heather and/or Greg's feelings for the other. Or at least having someone suspect that their newfound sibling relationship was more complicated. But none of their parents were around. It just feels like they burned through too much story there too quickly.  Ellen and Dale's romance definitely seems intriguing. I don't think I knew they toyed with Jill having feelings for Dale, which would have meant that Jill was once again considering going after her mother's man. That's a very interesting dynamic. With David coming home from Hong Kong, and Tom afraid of David's involvement, I think they should have given Tom and Jill a try. Tom trying to use Jill to buy respectability and maintain power at the law firm.  Vicki and Tony's affair seems like fun with Vicki just seeming to see Tony as more of a sexual object and it leading to a health crisis. There was probably some space to explore that both Tony and Ginger's fathers were criminals (Tony's bio dad). I can't remember if Harry Wilson/Ike Harding died, fled town, or went to prison. If he was alive, I think he would have been worth revisiting.  What fascinated me about "Somerset" in early 1976 is its a show of remnants, pieces of the show's different eras, and they seem to sorta work, not as well as more well defined canvas would. I do think a streamlining was needed, but I am not sure if the criminal angle was the best route to choose. 
    • Thanks for finding that about the Andrade home. I think it wasn't show in the opening weeks, but I may be wrong. With Danny in Los Angeles and Santana on her own, I don't think much space was given to Rosa and Reuben. It might have been nice to see them engaged in a healthy relationship threatened by Rosa keeping Santana's recently uncovered pregnancy from Reuben or even a visit from one of their other chidlren.  During the 1991 dinner, I think Rosa stated she would go home after work, which I took to me that she left the Capwell estate.

    • Last installment of 76 Felicia is horrified to arrive in Rosehill and discover that Charles has been in a coma since the night she left. She spends every moment at his bedside and, learning that a friend had a promise to God produce favorable results in a similar crisis, vows to give Eddie up forever in exchange for Charles’s recovery. Shortly after her prayer Felicia is told that Charles has rallied and has regained consciousness. Felicia now is determined to avoid Eddie and honor her promise. Bruce explains to Lynn that he must contact her parents or he and Van could be legally charged for allowing a minor child to live with them without parental consent. Bruce doubts Lynn’s assurance that her parents could care less, and is shocked when he discovers for himself that Lynn’s mother is as unfeeling as the girl has claimed. He informs a delighted Lynn that he plans to become her legal guardian.
    • I think that worked, but not as much by the late '80s, where I think they started getting things wrong with Mack.  I do respect Kevin Dobson, who did well when he was given the material he deserved (like the story with Jason).
    • 1976 Pt 2 The Organization has retained Michael Selby to represent their hit men. The district attorney recognizes his opponent as a noted courtroom specialist and knows he has his work cut out for him. Raising technicality after technicality, Selby quickly eliminates Lieutenant Price’s testimony implicating Bailey and Jerry’s testimony about Heather’s being assaulted. ‘Then, after cutting Julian’s testimony out as common knowledge, Selby goes straight to the heart of the  prosecution’s case. He demands that Carrie be produced now, sure that she’s been taken by the Organization. To Selby’s horror and shock, the doors open and Carrie walks in, and the courtroom explodes into pandemonium. As soon as the judge can restore order, Carrie is sworn in and begins her testimony. When court recesses for the day, Steve is confronted by another Organization man, Franklin, who questions him about why he took Carrie away. Steve tells him that Carrie was so frightened by the hit man lurking around that he saw his opportunity to be alone with her and “score.” Steve then adds that she wasn’t at all cooperative or friendly—she just cried all the  time—so he dumped her. He insists he has no idea how the police got her after that. Franklin accepts his story, and Steve learns that his next test is to testify to just what he’s told Franklin, omitting, of course, the reference to the hit man. Carrie insists upon a meeting with Steve and begs him not to go underground. He tells her he can’t back out now; you can’t go through life letting somebody  else do it all the time. Steve takes this opportunity to inform Lieutenant Price that he has to dump on Carrie on the witness stand for the Organization, but he can’t stop now. Julian, irate that Selby has blocked any reference to Nurse Fellowes’s disappearance and murder, as she was the only witness who could corroborate Carrie’s testimony, confronts Selby on this evasion. Selby | coldly tells Julian that there is no concrete connection between the nurses’ death and anything else that’s happened in this case and that to bring it into this trial would be a miscarriage of law. Julian, realizing  that it all falls on Carrie’s shoulders now, warns her that Selby will be out for blood; he has to make the court believe she’s lying.  The next day the district attorney introduces Carrie’s tape recorder. The tape, burned, as is the recorder, is barely audible. Selby calls for a mistrial, claiming that his clients’ reputations have been damaged enough. As the judge calls a recess: to consider the motion before the bench, the district attorney admits that he predicted everything Selby would do to this point, but had not guessed about this motion. If it works and there’s a new trial, Carrie is in far greater danger.  Steve now tells Castor that either he’s working for  the Organization as of now or he’s going to look elsewhere for a job. Castor offers the rainy weather as an excuse to wait before contacting “him,” because “the iron in him’Il be driving him crazy.” Realizing that this is a lead, Steve starts to write it down. When he is nearly caught, he warns himself that from now on  everything he learns will have to be kept in his head.  As soon as possible, he passes the “iron” clue along to Julian. The district attorney gains a respite when the judge  turns down the mistrial motion, but the tape has been disallowed also, ruled inadmissible. So it’s Selby’s turn to cross-examine Carrie. When he forces her to admit that she never actually saw the hit man, Selby turns to the jury and informs them that this proves she’s been lying. He then suggests this has all been a plot to boost the circulation of the newspaper she works for. Selby then goes to work on Carrie’s personal morals. Since she’s admitted that she and Steve spent three days in the apartment, alone together, he asks questions and makes insinuations designed to make the jury believe this was actually a sleazy affair. To Carrie’s horror, he then calls the landlady, Mrs. Wilson who testifies that that Steve and Carrie,registered as Mr. and Mrs. Clark, spent the three days in question drinking and partying with loud music and assorted other sounds coming from their rooms until late each night. Carrie rises to her feet and screams at Mrs. Wilson, ““You’re lying!” Steve is served with a subpena.  Joe Castor visits “the man”: Fred Harrington! Castor gives Harrington his report on Steve. He thinks Steve, with his computerlike mind, could be invaluable in helping the Organization work out money-exchange problems. Harrington tells Castor he wants the trial over as soon as possible, no matter how it goes. Those men are expendable; he has a bigger problem: Julian.
    • Given the weird fantasies/out of town barn trips she does for Reva/Kyle, I can't see it either. (Not to mention Kyle's obsessive talking to paintings, or Billy's nightmares.)
