This episode was better than the first. It wasnt jumping all over the place and the pacing was slower which I liked. I still cant get over the blatant ignoring of continuity though

WTF, Stan and Kelly? Man she is such a ho!

Hi

This episode was a bit of a letdown. There was really no plot, just random eavesdropping on characters in rotation and then once everyone was looked in on it's time to start again. It technically isn't a serialized soap, so a one hour drama/comedy does need some focus or plot. Just looking in on the repetitive barely problems of Robin and Patrick doesn't cut it. They obviously didn't have a story this week, so why couldn't NS had devoted their time, and Maxie's and the Barret woman's to someone like the Iraqi vet or the old woman? It reminds me of Nip/Tuck in a way (not content wise but in format) only N/T does anchor each episode with a plot about a patient.

That said I loved Bradford Anderson's performance. I just wish the show would be written a little tighter. If I had to describe the plot of this to a friend who never saw it, I would be hard pressed to sell them on the show. NS cheats in that it knows we know who the characters are, but just for argument's sake if you never saw GH before could you walk away from NS knowing the names of any character?

i loved it.

so i just watch GH NS as if there is no GH... lol. thats the only way to do it cuz i watched GH Daytime right before GHNS...

anyways, It was a good eppy that had balance and humor. The only thing i didnt like was how Robin is always jelous of Patrick and the sleezy girl of the moment. Move on! give them a better issue!!

i liked the robin/jason friednship. i miss those 2 in scenes as a friendship. i also loved the scenes of maxie with the new dr. as much as i love her and coop, i also love slutty maxie. well shes still slutty, but ya know what i mean.

the stan/kelly thing was random, and i loved it!!

next week looks awsome.

I liked it.

Jason and Epiphany are funny

Jason and a mop was funny. I like that I am seeing Jason do other things.

Spinelli is such a geek but you got to love him for it.

Ahh my Jason and Robin heart was so happy. It was so great to see her share scenes with him. They are such good friends and boy what I would not give for a Sonny/Robin scene on GH. I guess beggers cant be choosers.

I actually like Lainey and Cody. More chemistry.

Stan and Kelly was WTF moment and so came out of left field.

Let me go on record saying "I DO NOT WANT THAT WOMAN TO BE BRENDA!!!!!" I am not ready for someone else to play Brenda.

I liked the episode alot. In response to the post saying the episode had no plot, I think it did. The episode was called "skin deep" and it seemed to be, for the most part, about physicality, color, and status. I thought it was very well written. Anyone notice that Michele Val Jean was credited this week?

What's up with Laila? What was that look she gave the old lady? Maybe she's trying to sabotage Regina. I think SHE was the one who inputted the wrong code..

Patient Barrett better be Vanessa Marcil as Brenda. Nuff said.

They BETTER not recast Brenda that way. I don't want that to be Brenda.

Great episode though! I was cracking up during Spinelli's "Stone Cold video game". Hilarious!!

Stan and Kelly, TOTALLY random, didn't expect that. I wonder if they'll add that on to the show and if Lainey will find out they were together.

Great episode, next week looks even better!

    • The TVC Studio 31 that they used for 38 years was only about 13,730 sq ft., according to the TVC website specs: https://televisioncityla.com/stages-offices/ Sunset Las Palmas Studios has 11 sound stages, which go up to 20,000 sq ft., though we're yet to learn which of those sound stages will house B&B. Depending on which one, the specs for it can be found here: https://www.sunsetstudios.com/los-angeles/las-palmas-studios/ Sound Stages 4, 5 and 9 are available for use starting September 1, 2025. It's unclear if either of those stages would be used by B&B since they begin production there starting Tuesday, August 19, 2025, which would be before the date shown on the website, but we shall see. Of those three sound stages, only Sound Stage 4 and 5 make sense since they are larger than the specs the show had at TVC, while 9 is quite smaller.  Sound Stage 4 would be the best option overall for B&B since it has 18,819 sq ft., the largest individual sound stage at the lot - Stage 3 and Stage 8 share space, which combined makes the space 19,900 sq ft. --- Forgot to add, unless there was an issue with storing the sets, the changes at TVC should have had no issue with production on the show, resulting in fewer set use as there has been no movement in terms of construction that would impact either show (B&B/Y&R). Of the 2-3 times I've been at the studio, the most recent for Don Diamont's 40 years at CBS, it was the most dead I had ever seen the space, but that could be due to vacations, holidays, or the preparation of the B&B move.
    • I didn't post about it in the BtG thread as I still don't watch the show (an hour runtime is just too much for me right now with a new soap I can't just mostly skip through) but I can't imagine the ego of someone who is hired as a breakdown writer and decides to [!@#$%^&*] their own name all over the show. Classless beyond belief. Any writer who cares more about masturbatory behavior than quality of work should not be hired.
    • Yeah, it would've made things more tightly woven.
    • I like Chelsea and Madison. Two very pretty black women as a potential couple. But I really wish this show would've showcased two very handsome black men as a couple instead.
    • I didn't even think of roasters from GH

      Maybe this roast will take even more than two years
    • Irna wasn't involved with ATWT at the time of Neil's death, was she? I'm imagining a situation where right after his latest doctor's appointment, he's killed.
    • The Cruise of Deception was the first thing that came to mind when I mentioned that Brady might take after that side of the family 
    • We all knew that TT is busy so if she's off screen for a bit except for phone calls and/or visits.. then it is what is. Ashley was nicely used as support... which the writers should have been doing since day 1 so that viewers could understand why exactly she's on the show LOL Chelsea/Madison.... seems too good to be true... we shall see. Shanice as a PT... if it means more airtime.. I'm good.
    • Yeah, he's a mobster with Vanessa while his wife cozies up to mobsters as the worst mayor in America. 
    • He's too busy in Maryland with a younger blonde woman.
