P.J., thanks for that! I hate my local station which always jumps into the soaps and never reairs the episodes. Grrr! Worst part? They waited for the commercials to finish before jumping in...

Sounds like I missed a good final segment. The only thing that bothers me is that Jade is once again going after Will and Gwen. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ What is the purpose of all this? She will NEVER have a shot with Will, so why continue ruining the character for this? Why not put her with Aaron? Or Dallas? Or Elwood? Or Dusty or Paul to play up the forgotten ties to Rose? Hell, what about Lily? I'll never understand why they gave Jade such an interesting family connection only for it to be dropped. Elena Goode deserves better.

How do you know she's not talking about Brad? :lol: Remember: Katie + Jack 4 Eva!!!!

*vomits*

BTW, I do like that Lily is off that damn ranch and has a friend. Wish they'd do the same for Holden. They write those two much older than they actually are. Hard to believe they were once one of the biggest supercouples on the show. :(

I had to strain to remember how the show finished up. Kind of boring day...and sometimes I think the previews were in the show.

Don't make me have to hurt you...I'm surprised there hasn't been some demented group of fans pushing for Barly (Brad/Carly) yet over at PGP. Ugh...can you imagine Maura hooked to Austin Peck's side in every scene? I think I'd cry.

I'm not Lily's biggest fan, but I could have kissed her the day she popped over to Carly's and didn't judge her. And I wish they'd let Holden and Jack talk again. If ANYONE could have made Jack pause over schtupping Katie, it would have been him. I kinda dig that Holden's taken over Seth's role in the family. (and for those who don't know, Seth is Holden's oldest brother. The calm, reasonable Snyder. I floved Steve Bassett.)

My local station didn't show the last segment so I missed all that. Could someone give me a rundown of what happened? Anything exciting in the clips for next week?

Chris, now that CBS is streaming the episodes, you can watch ATWT online, including the previews and real closing credits.

For the life of me, I can't understand all of the ATWT bashing. I love it. It's one of the soaps that I really feel at home watching and thoroughly enjoy the episode. The Cleo/Will/Gwen/Jade plot is definately my favorite and I don't get why it's so hated. I think it's loads of fun and I love Jennifer Landon and all of the other actors involved.

I od'd on Cleo by week three. Especially since 98% of the scenes with Cleo are with Gwen and Will. I had a glimmer of hope Carly would be pulled into the story, but that went the way of the dinosaur.

Thats the mystery of the ages for me too. I struggle to see whats so bad about the show as it is right now. It doesn't look to me like the airtime is being hogged by anytime that doesn't deserve it or is not utilizing it in a good way. And the quality of the dialouge, the acting, the SETS, the clothes. All top notch and it all comes together in such a magnificent way.

The Cleo/Will/Gwen/Jade storyline? Its great because a lot of what has happened I NEVER expected to occur. I would have thought Gwen would have been kidnapped by now and Cleo living her life. In addition I thought Jade would have been torturing Gwen while Cleo falls in love with Will and eventually gets pregnant or something. I would have thought Cleo would have snapped by now once Gwen gets free and reveals herself to Gwen.

But none of that has happened yet. And I don't think it will. Instead the writers have written an excellent story that has had a lot of twists and turns. So I'm definitely enjoying the story and I look forward to next week at Branson. It appears like Cleo loses it a bit. I hope its at Jade. Cuz the girl needs to get a life.

And I'm loving Jatie right now. Although I'm glad Carly is back I must say that I really want them to focus on the business aspect of her. The part of her that wants to be independent and sucessful. Simon taught her that she could be a strong successful woman WITHOUT a man. Especially since shes a vibrant and creative woman.

Anyways regardless of how I feel about Carly I think its a shame that ATWT gets so much grief. I think that Days is basically the only other soap that can hold a candle to it. Along with Y&R.

Why are you wasting your time trying to find out reasons to not like a show that you love right now? It shouldn't matter what other people think about it. If you enjoy it, go right on ahead and enjoy it. I know I won't hold anything against anyone who is loving the show right now. You don't have to understand *why* so many people are upset with the show. Just understand that there *are* many people upset with the show.

Did I say I was trying to understand? I'm just letting the guy know that hes NOT the ONLY one feeling the same way. I feel that its a great show too and I'm enjoying it.

Calm down. I've noticed that he hardly comments on ATWT and I think its a shame. I don't know why he doesn't if he truly does like/love the show but I do have some speculations. Perhaps if he knew that there are others who don't think the show is stupid or completely off base then maybe he wouldn't hesistate to post. I know I sometimes question whether or not to even post my opinion about the daily episodes since I know I'm in the minority and hardly heard.

Um, dude, you said that you were "struggling" to see what's so bad about the show.

Oh, I'm calm. I hope you didn't read my tone wrong. I mean...you do have to understand that if you are in the minority about the show's quality right now, you can't expect people to reply to you in agreement. I'm not the type who feels black or white about a show, myself, so I quote and reply to things that I both disagree with and agree with about the show. I think it was a couple of days ago that I agreed and disagreed with Chris B. like five times in the same post.

And besides, the fact that you're in the minority shouldn't be a reason not to post. You say that psychofan would post more in the ATWT threads if he realized that there were others who like the show right now......well, my friend, that's kinda where you come in.

I guess I understand that some people are hesitant to post when they see the constant criticism voiced in a thread. 'Twas a time I was "the wet blanket" in these threads, two years ago or so.

But honestly, if I didn't care, I wouldn't be complaining. I half-watch Y&R, B&B, and GL, and I rarely bother to get worked up about anything on those shows, good or bad. (If you think I think ATWT is bad....holy crap, Y&R is a rotting, putrid, unsalvagable mess, comparatively. Christ, I'd take Cleo 24/7 over Y&R's Amber.)

    • Concluding 1976... Raymond Schafer arrives in Springfield and begins an extensive probe into Malcolm’s death, puzzling Ed, who wonders why most of Schafer’s question sessions keep turning back to Rita’s involvement with Malcolm. Ed assures the man that Rita’s only connection with Malcolm was as his nurse; he is unaware that Schafer knows a great deal more about Rita than he does. Just to protect Rita, Ed has Mike check on Schafer’s credentials, and learns that he’s a  well-respected criminal attorney. The waitress at the restaurant where Malcolm suffered his stroke tells Schafer that the woman who was with him reacted very professionally to the sudden emergency, as if she were a nurse. Realizing that her little sister has fallen hard for Tim, Rita warns him that she’s very vulnerable and innocent, but Tim tells Rita her advice isn’t necessary. But Tim then receives a plum job offer to be chief neurological resident at a prestigious Philadelphia hospital and can’t pass up the opportunity. Evie is crushed by the news and spends the next several days at home crying. Joe Werner, fully recovered, has accepted a post as a medical aide in a destitute village in India and leaves alone, with Sarah to follow him later. Justin asks Sarah to consider a partnership with him in private practice, but she explains that she thrives on the hospital atmosphere. When a call comes from India that Joe has had another massive attack, Sarah leaves on the next available flight and arrives only moments before he dies. The painful news is relayed back to Cedars at once. Sara returns from India a heartbroken woman, but the day-to-day involvement of raising T.J. and of her career seem to be her salvation. Justin shows a surprisingly compassionate and understanding side to Sara, but, ironically, Justin’s ex-wife, Jackie, arrives in Springfield with her diabetic father, who is suffering from a heart attack. In the process of consulting with Justin on her father’s condition, Jackie comes face to face with Sara for the first time since their college days. Evie’s heartbreak at Tim’s departure turns to fury and hatred when she inadvertently discovers a letter which Tim wrote to Rita just after he left. In it he concedes that Rita was right about Evie’s vulnerability where he was concerned but reminds Rita that he badly hurt her in the same way she feared Evie would suffer. Evie is now sure that Rita somehow forced Tim to leave town and is livid at the idea that Tim was Rita’s lover. She insists she’s cutting off her relationship with Rita and will pay her back for any help she’s received in the past. Ben and Hope’s wedding plans are off, as Ben, while still insisting he’s innocent, won’t explain why the robbery evidence points to him. Hope feels his unwillingness to tell her the truth makes marriage to him impossible, but confides to Ann that she is miserable without him. Ben has echoed these sentiments to Mike but won’t confide in him, either as Hope’s father or as an attorney.   Holly is trying very hard to build a life without Ed, but since she sees him virtually every day at work,she’s unable to put him out of her mind. She accepts a date with a member of the hospital administration staff but is unable to avoid making comparisons between Ed and this young man and winds up alone, sadly holding Ed’s picture and recalling how much she loves him. Believing that the hospital board’s conclusions on Grainger’s death have settled the question once and for all, Rita has regained her self-confidence, and her romance with Ed is growing daily. They admit their love for each other, and Ed confides that he intentionally  held back with Rita for fear of making another mistake. Rita then tells Ed she has never married because for her marriage must be forever. Rita’s mother realizes that Rita is truly in love when she confides in her that she doesn’t understand why she’s been so lucky in having him love her and how she wants to be the very best person she can be for him. Ed proposes marriage to Rita and gives her time to think about it before answering. Rita painfully realizes that her past could, if it rose again against her, make a life with Ed a lost dream. But Raymond Shaefer has been quietly but efficiently carrying on his investigation and has learned that Grainger argued with Rita at her apartment. He presents the evidence he’s compiled to District Attorney Eric Van Gelder, who decides the case warrants further investigation. Rita goes to Ed’s office to tell him she loves him but can’t marry him, that she doesn’t deserve him and “can’t do it to him.” As she turns from a confused Ed to leave, she finds the district attorney and a police officer outside Ed’s door, waiting to arrest her. Ed, insisting that a serious mistake has been made, calls Mike to help her as Rita, shocked and humiliated, is taken under arrest through the hallways of the hospital in which she works. Mike manages Rita’s release on bail only after she has had to submit to the degrading booking procedure. Mike sees her alone at her apartment, explaining he can help her only if she tells him the whole truth. Rita equivocates until Mike mentions Texas, indicating to Rita that he knows at least some of the story. Van Gelder has, in fact, let Mike see the bulk of evidence in the case against Rita, to convince him her arrest wasn’t a capricious whim. Rita explains to Mike that Malcolm believed she intentionally vilified him to his father, to do him out of his rightful inheritance, and then wanted his father dead to collect her money. Mike expresses his appreciation of Rita’s honesty, promising to help her. But Rita’s tormented dreams confirm that she hasn’t yet told all the truth, and after Peggy visits, expressing firm support, Rita tells Roger she has to reveal his part in the story. Roger painfully tells Rita about his being Christina’s father to show her that if Ed knew, it would end Rita’s chances with him forever. Rita, who was ready to tell Ed the whole story, now realizes how risky that would be. Adding to Rita’s pain is her forced leave of absence from the hospital until she’s cleared and the embarrassment of seeing her name in the headlines.

    • Yes, but the stories are all pretty awful Seeing Victor rehashing his hatred of the Abbotts  when he married one of them and has a daughter that is half Abbott as well as walking around with Traci's daughter's heart keeping him alive makes him look worse than he already is. And I remember he and Jack chatting amicably in the past few years. Victor interfering in Kyle/Claire is just repeat of Billy/Victoria. Sharon, Nick,Phyllis etc are around but again the stories are lacking.
    • I think Kevin's 1996 Emmy was fair enough. He barely appeared for his second. I don't think anyone else on the list is that deserving but I might have gone with Moore as he did try with the whole Keesha AIDS story. @alwaysAMC Thanks to slick jones' cast list I was able to see that Nikki Rene played Tina. Not much on her, as you mentioned. Tap and a few Broadway listings (it doesn't help that a younger actress with a similar name is in a lot of roles).

    • Thank you. That does ring a bell. I remember Theresa and Julian's drunk, giggly fake wedding (with Julian asking "Whassup?" to the minister). Was Bruce tricking the pair as a prank, or did somebody put him up to it? I especially liked Katherine recalling how dashing young Alistair was when he'd pick up Rachel for dates, and how she wished she could be her sister, then feeling guilty once Rachel had her boating accident ...
    • And Kevin Mambo beat Shemar Moore for those two Emmys. I chalk up the wins to the voters not wanting Jonathan Jackson to eventually end up with a five peat (he won 1995, 1998, 1999). These were the 1996 and 1997 Younger Actor races. 1996: Nathan Fillion, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow 1997: Steve Burton, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow
