Isn't it a bit weird that Noah declares his desire for Maddie ad nauseum and wants everyone to know they're dating, but avoids Luke after an awkward clench, only to kiss him at work where anyone can see them? I guess Brad and Katie's episode at the studio didn't get around to them. Maybe the guy is unconsciously throwing himself out of the closet on purpose.

The kiss was great! The only real reason I watched today! Carly getting stuck in that fake quicksand was bad. I am glad this storyline is coming to a conclusion. Oh and was nice seeing Kim on today as window dressing. :rolleyes: Katie needs to shut the [!@#$%^&*] up! I hate her!!!

I agree, so many holes in this story already, which is why I'm hardly invested in it.

I have a feeling that people are only interested in it because it involves two gay characters, so they're blind to hideous writing surrounding it. I'm sorry, you can be bias to certain characters, but don't ignore the crappy plot holes. LOL!

One more day of Katie wringing her hands and telling every passer-by about her and Jack's "engagement"...y'know, even when she's so. bleepin'. worried. about JJ and Jack. But not Carly. She just can't help but spread the happy...uhm, news. And she really crossed the line when she said she'd have to stay home to care for Jack and JJ...because they'd need her so, so, so much after their ordeal. I don't give a damn how much she cares for JJ, it ain't her job to care for him when he comes home.

I was glad to see Kim anyway, even if she did nothing but kiss Katie's ass, AGAIN.

Yeah, the quicksand was a bit much, but very dramatic. Especially after watching B&B, where I knew Brooke wasn't going to get saved, it made me feel better to see Carly kickin' ass with a wrench and takin' Silas down. Even if he's just basically a cartoon villian. And I really liked that they shot the scenes in a real basement/boiler room, whatever you want to call it. It was so much better than a hokey little set.

I actually liked the Lily/Dusty/Cheri stuff.

I like Daniel Hugh Kelly. Can we keep him? I didn't really buy the Nuke kiss...my guess is we're supposed to buy that Noah is so overwhelmed by the pressure of his deception, he's self-sabotaging.

I was hoping Kim would have given Katie the Kiddo speech. I am so fed up with Katie! Katie needs to be dropped off the canvas. I have had enought of Katie Peretti!!!

I also liked the set used with the Carly/JJ/Silas storyline.

After seeing Lily and Dusty again I wouldnt mind them revisiting their history. A possible romance to make Dumb Holden jealous again.

I think Daniel Hugh Kelly would be good love interest for either Barbara or Lucinda....heck even Susan. They could all fight with each other for his attention...LOL.

So you didnt buy the Nuke kiss? I am shocked! :lol::P

    • I hope they give him more to do than just be a prick as you say. I can see how viewers would like him because the actor is so charming despite the character being such an absolute pain.    I would agree. And there was also the undercurrent of Raven and Draper sort of flirting with each other. The actors play that attraction and it worked so well in that scene. 
    • Daniel Cosgrove is PERFECT as the sleezy politician. This might be my favorite role of his. All of these people keeping Kristina’s secret is so annoying. I really want her to pay.
    • What did happen to Beth between 86 and 89? Did she have amnesia?
    • I actually thought he came off as younger. It's so hard to buy Martin as Nicole and Ted's son unless they had him when they were 12.
    • @chrisml Isn't remarkable that, on a soap whose brand is built on twists and mysteries, that Raven's last straw was as simple as Logan saying that she was incapable of loving Jamey.  In the episode when Raven exit's and leaves Jamey with April, I can remember feeling the subtext that Raven is also trying to talk herself into leaving him behind.  There's so much in that little scene.  She's trying to stick it to Logan for saying she was a bad mother.  She's both granting April's wish, and damning her with the old adage of being careful what she wished for.  And, she's hinting to Draper that she's going to boff his father. It remains my favorite scene, and it still blows my mind that was not the end of that episode.  
    • Oh lord not Drew just figured out it was both Nina and Portia that set him up. Willow WILL never leave this man. Ric taking the case purely just to spite Sonny is [!@#$%^&*].ing hilarious.
    • And in addition to Patti being de-aged, she was no longer a nurse, divorced from Len(fair enough) and her two children were not seen and barely mentioned. So basically she was a totally new character. For newer viewers it didn't matter but any loyal viewers would have been wondering about all the changes with Patti. Sarah Whiting always puzzled me. The writers finally decide to acknowledge Jo's family and do so by making up a never mentioned adopted teen. Why not just bring in Tracey, Jo's actual grandaughter? As for Liza, perhaps it would have been wise to rest the character when Sherry left. They were big shoes to fill and her Liza was so identified with Travis. I don't recall what was going on in the story at that time but if they knew Sherry was leaving, write it so Liza would leave town to care for an ailing Janet and take a breather with the character for a few months.
    • Ahh interesting. Yeah, that's sad for A-M. I will say, he and Nick became fast friends when Susan started working at Spaulding. A-M/Lucy/Nick/Susan had a lot of double dates in those 7 months. A-M was Nick's best man at his wedding to Susan, which now that I think about it, is odd that he wouldn't have considered Fletcher. I remember those two were so close at the paper, and even living together with Ben. Once Tangie left SF, Nick left the paper, and Fletcher/Holly were rarely seen... so I guess they felt that friendship wasn't shown often enough anymore (which again, lazy writing).
    • I honestly don't think Alan-Michael ever really had a friend on the show. Maybe Cameron or Samantha, but otherwise... *Cameron was a high school friend who ended up dating teenage Dinah after she broke up with A-M. Samantha is Phillip's biological sister, who A-M treated like a sister. Interestingly enough, they were born the same week on the show in 1981, but A-M ends up being older than her when she returns to town in '89.
    • I thought he was very cute too, and a likeable presence even though on paper Cliff was a prick. I wonder if he was well-liked by viewers or someone at the show as there's a point in these episodes where he could have been written out and was not.
