Today's show was very well done. I was really on the edge of my seat during the last act. Loved the way they cut back and forth between John/Marty and the Woman of the Year banquet.

And like others have posted, the Lindsay/Nora flashbacks were fab! So many hairstyles over the years! LOL! Ms. Hickland looks better now than ever!

I think it will be connected to her knowing that Tommy is Todd's (if she really did kill him); either Lindsay knew ahead of time and Spencer threaten to reveal that or Lindsay went into the room for some reason, Spencer spilled the secret, and she killed him to keep it from getting out.

She was there with Marcie, while she was going through the discovery of her not being able to have children, and at the hospital that day. She, more than anyone, know how much Marcie and Michael love Tommy. And after Jen's death, Lindsay treats Marcie like she's her daughter... so Lindsay in a sense, would do anything to protect her happiness.

I loved Nora's speech, the flashback were nice touches. I was surprised at how many of those scenes I actually remember watching. Tomorrow's episode looks interesting (at least the WOTY part does).

I've really enjoyed the show--for some reason since the special eps last week--itseems to be going ina great direction but... The whole Lindsay thing strikes me as way too forced and random--a turn around just like the whole Tate is suddenly evil thing. And the way John figured it out was SOO laughably random and odd! And then he walks around like he knwos for sure even talking to her photograph? Make it stop. I was hoping he'd have one too many beers on the roof and walk off it...

I feel the same way. Linsday being the killer is so out of left field. Before a few weeks ago there weren't any kind of hints that pointed to her, but now all of a sudden she figured out Tommy was Todd's kids months ago and that's why she killed him? I'm sorry I don't buy it. I think Paige was supposed to be the killer all along. I agree with how laughable it was John put two and two together Lindsay was the killer. GMAB.

This WOTY ceremony and curse tops Nora for me. If it wasn't for Lindsay breaking down during her speech, her talking to Marcie and crying, then talking about Marcie to everyone, and Michael confronting John, loudly... it wouldn't have had been glued to the screen. It's been a while, since I've been really interested in what's to come on Monday for the show.

Though, I'm agreeing with everyone else how left field it seem to be that Lindsay is suddenly the killer (you can kinda tell that they decided, at the last moment, it should be her a week or two ago)... I do love how it still involved Spencer and Todd mess. One of the biggest complaints that I have about soap "who did it?" mysteries like this, is that they don't connect the victim and killer with things they did on screen at all (example: Y&R and who killed Carmen Mesta).

All I have to say is that for at least the next three weeks we will begin to see the Tommy/TJ drama play out. This will means lots of Marcie, Michael, Todd, Blair, John and Lindsay; along with a sprinkling of Nora, Dorian, Bo, Rex, Adriana, and a few others. There will be other stories, but this will be the big one of course. ;)

I remember noticing Lindsay acting strange when Bo came to see her at the gallery. I don't remember when it aired (I want to say about a month or so ago) after Bo left she made an odd comment to herself. That's when they first gave hints it could be her. I think changing the killer to Lindsay (I'll keep saying it was supposed to be Paige :P ) was part of Ron's influence when he became co-head writer.

      That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

      Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.

      Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be.

      I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here.

      It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.

      Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.

      I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.

      Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis.

      Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
