Oh, don't tease me. LOL Yes, this story would have been amazing if David were there. Imagine if he could have playe a part in saving one or both of the babies. Would Kendall have let him? Would anyone have wanted him near those kids? This could have been his way to make a mense to the Kane Women. The last time David saw one of them, Erica, he protected her and gave her an alibi, so the dynamics had shifted a little so it would have been sooooooo interesting.

Stupid AMC! :angry:

Like Thursday, the last half of today's episode - awesome! And I do really hate to say that on a CB day, it just feels like it's the wrong thing to do.

The episode was bang on from the moment Kendall almost detachedly signed those papers for Ian's heart surgery. Then that moment Kendall got confused about the babies (and even the way she corrected herself), it was like she seriously wasn't all there for a moment - dang, it was kind of heartbreaking. Really good stuff. Susan was great. Lish was great. I've never seen Erica be that motherly to Kendall, and she was so genuinely you know...scared and heartbroken. Mama bear Erica was especially jarring to see, in a good way, after months of Erica acting like a 13-year old.

Erica said the "G" word today, not about herself though, but might the "G" word about herself be near? LOL, probably not, but that's cool.

Zyrtle on the phone. Myrtle saying all the right things. Zach finally crying. Aww, the only thing that could have made it better was if EH was there. Oh also really loved the way he played the scene when he took Kendall to see the baby. Kendall insisted he tell her the baby would be alright and without much conviction (he didn't look her in the eye and he quickened the pace of his speech) he told her that and then couldn't get her out of the room fast enough - because he so wasn't sure (his optimism once again taking a dip) and he was about to crack. Sigh, good stuff.

Joe's talk to Erica. I don't pay much attention to RM/Joe scenes, so I might be somewhat "backwards" in saying that I think that one scene he had with Erica was the best scene he's done since I began watching the show again in 2003. I almost got teary eyed. I don't cry for soaps anymore (I do cry every now and again, but it's typically out of disappointment in the writing or during OLTL death scenes), so teary eyed is a big compliment. The last half of today's show had me teary eyed about 3-4 times.

The first half of Ryan's last scene (the part with Annie), I think that's the softest, most natural work I've seen him do in forever. He seemed genuinally grateful to Annie and Cam for a moment was almost perfect in delivery. At least, IMO.

Greenlee. I do blame her for the Spike stuff and I'm not giving her a free pass despite 40 minutes of subtle and slow crawling and flashbacks and all the tinkly music, but I don't hate her (but I hope they let Kendall hate her for a good long time). I don't blame Jack for standing by her so much, although I want to punch him occasionally, lol. I love that they're having Josh have a problem with what she did instead of him being ruled by his penis as usual, all the better for when/if the show decides to go there. Makes him less of a vacant male Fetus-whore and gives him and possibly Gosh more context.

I'm just glad they're using the tinkly music on someone other than Babe.

Anyway, I'm with you (and have been waiting for you to finish typing that post! Sheesh! :P ), and I don't give her a free pass. The accident is no one's fault but her own. But I don't hate her for it, either. I just hold her responsible.

Thanks!

He is breaking my heart because you can see he is having such a hard time facing the reality of what Greenlee has done and what resulted from it. When he saw that baby for the first time today it was all over his face and it just broke my heart. He always looks at Greenlee with such sadness but he shows her his love and sadly he is the one person that is in the middle of all of this and no matter what he does someone is going to be angry or hurt.

Angela, you just made me spit out my water :lol: If I have to be stuck with the fetus than I'd rather see him with Greenlee. I think CE/SS have good chemistry together.

B&E must be editing each episode heavily because despite Hayes & Bugler, that was another excellent, heartbreaking episode.

The Erica/Kendall scenes had me bawling like a baby.

I also loved Erica & Joe's scene. His speech reminded me of the good old Agnes Nixon/Wisner Washam days.

I've been feeling Ryan's pain for the past few episodes. When given meaty material, Cam does prove he can act instead of rant.

I'm with Cheap, et al. on Zach.

      I don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.

      Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.

      You've been seeing him all along. You just didn't know it was him, I guess.

      Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.

      I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.

      So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows.

      The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.

      So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
