Well don't all talk at once...

Surprise! I LOVED the EJ and Sami and Santo and Colleen stuff. Still loving the EJami bickering and fated talk and maybe this is my EJami fangurlishness but it almost seems like they are addressing the Dec. 29 ickiness in a roundabout way with some of this dialogue. I don't watch GH, missed all the Luke and Laura stuff because I'm way too young for that, but I can't help wondering if that is what they are up to in these scenes when we are hearing the word seduction just as many times as we used to hear the word rape. Hmmmmmmm. Would not be opposed to a rewrite of those events at all, but I'm sure there's many here who would be.

Call me crazy, but I liked Nick and the kids. Maybe I'm just so excited to see Nick in a scene that isn't Chelsea crapping on him OR an ex-hooker blackmailing him. Because Chelsea just kind of annoys me lately, so much so, that in today's scenes I was sort of thinking... hey... why don't they put Nick and Billie back together. Because Julie Pinson is too fun and hot to be nothing but the confidant to Nick and Phillip. BTW, that's a Panama hat? Interesting. Do you guys think that guy with the scars on his face was Dr. Rebert back for revenge but disguised? :lol:

As for Touch the Sky... ummmm meh. I sort of paid attention during the Jeremy begging Steph to run away with him and I'm glad Steph said no. Then I kind of ignored the rest until one thing Max said caught my attention when I *thought* I heard him say something to Steph about wanting to get naked. Ummmm... did I imagine that or is that what he said? Not that I really care that much. I just want some clarification.

Can't wait for tomorrow! :)

You know... I did too! So I must be as nuts as you are, IMA!

I thought this was going to look like Mr. Mom originally, but the chemistry between Nick and the kids was wonderful, and gave Blake some really nice fatherly moments, something we don't see in him... well... ever. It's been Nick-the-tortured-geek for so long, it was fun to see him enjoying himself, with that youthfulness he had when he first started that I loved so much.

Count me in with those that liked Nick and the kids. He was really natural in the scenes with them, and I also like that this story is taking an interesting and unexpected turn. And we see a mysterious man lurking....I know that's a soap cliche, but I always love it anyways. However, he bore no resemblance to Dr. Rebert so I think someone is going to be disappointed!

IMissAremid, I agree with you about the undercurrents in Sami and EJ's conversation. I got the feeling that they were dancing around what happened on 12/29, trying to re-frame it without actually addressing it. Good luck to them with this because I'm willing to have them do a re-write or clarification or whatever they want to call it--it appears they are trying to ascribe it to "destiny"--but a lot of people are going to be livid! Whatever...I loved those scenes today, and this playful, fun EJ is so appealing. And I'm with EJ--I want the old Sami back (just a more mature version).

TTS--happily, it appears to be ending. I wish they would just all go on the run and off my TV screen, never to be heard from again. Except for Chelsea, if she's written properly and not so annoying and indecisive.

Billie...please, please, please writers, give her a story worthy of JP's talent! She's so gorgeous and such a fun, lively character, and I'm tired of her being backburnered or wasted on lame stories while Jett, Jeremy and the like gobble up so much screen time.

I tuned in a bit just to see how the Y&R contingent has spiced up the show, and I need an explanation of the airplane plot. Since when have you been on a flight where the whole flight crew was 19 years old? I'd be asking if the pilot graduated high school, let alone obtained flying credentials! The guys are certainly hot...when they don't talk.

I think the airline plot is coming to a close and it was started pre-Scott.

They started the airline up on there own and it is not on the up and up and I'm not positive but I think most of their passengers knew about the illegal transporting of girls thing which is why they went. At least that is the vibe I got.

The pilots, Jeremy and Jett, supposedly knew each other from their flight training days with the Air Force (or something along those lines . . . ). So I guess they are supposed to be mid 20s at least? It seems like they were trying to make Chelsea and Steph older through the drinking, etc. Who knows?? lol

    • The sad thing about SC being a great actor is that his character has never worked. Ever. And yes if I don't know what Liam is about and just focus on acting... I can appreciate him. But as soon as I connect him to Liam... I cringe.  Maybe SC should run till he is still young and find himself a role where he can shine. 
    • As I've said before I don't believe the fact that both sisters have cheating husbands (one in the past, one more recently) is a coincidence or anything random. It's pre-thought and pre-planned and the message is clear. Cheaters can be found in all shapes, forms and sizes. Some do it in the most blatant way, they are known serial cheaters and their wives know of their past hook ups (as Dani has already said... she was willing to forgive Bill for his previous mistresses... till Hayley came) and some are more masterfully disguised in the image of the perfect husband. The fact that Dani was jealous of her sister Nicole's happy marriage in the first episodes was not a coincidence. I knew it the first second I heard it. It made me wonder and think what is beneath Nicole and Ted's picture perfect life. The show painted two very different sisters and then gave them the same crisis. It was intentional and dramatically focused on how these women acted after that... How they kept or did not keep their dignity. The contrasts and the similarities are not random. They connected the two stories very well. Telling us that beyond the gates there are secrets... lies and betrayals. And sometimes the happiest ones have the biggest skeletons in their closets. Is all of this a cliche? A soap opera serial cliche? Yes. Does it still work? Yes. And did we need to start with something that is more universal and easier to stomach by the mass audience? Yes. This is only the beginning of the show in terms of stories and themes. We will have years ahead of us to explore different aspects of these people. The first couple of months it had to be a classic sex and betrayal story that makes more people hooked. It's universal. Again. Nothing so far about both husbands being cheaters is coincidental for me. It's too early for that.
    • Thanks, these are great! Joanne Curtis, another soap character punished for having an abortion

    • Yes!!! Mona feels  like one of my aunts, love the way she carries herself. Loved seeing Eva pop-up at the gambling place.  Monday was all around good soap. Can't remember the last time an entire episode held my interest.  Loving the fallout and reverberations from Ted and Shea-Butter Sheila's affair

      . Tricia Mann Grant is 90s early 2000s quality FINE. As nice as it would've been to see Anita embrace Eva, I'm glad she didn't because we can squeeze a lot more years of conflict out of Eva, Leslie and the Duprees.   Lauren & Sheila, Viki & Dorian, Katherine & Jill all gave us good conflict for decades. Hopefully this follows suit. I understand the concern. Right now there's an issue of quality of black representation on shows more so than quantity of black shows. I'd like to see more predominantly black sci-fi, legal, political, supernatural or medical dramas over the typical who is sleeping with who. However, this is a soap, and this is what happens on soaps. White soap characters do these things all the time, but have the luxury of being seen as individuals, not representations of their entire race. Husbands/fathers like Todd Manning, Victor Newman and Asa Buchanan cheat, lie and swindle all the time but aren't seen as a commentary on white men. Black characters like Ted and New Dollar Bill should be able to do the same.
    • And that area of the DMV has a high-end glamorous casino the MGM National Harbor. 
    • Even under the new writers, Jamey episodes are the shortest and the weakest A lot of people were unnecessarily clowny and bitchy today. There was a lot of fluff and filler too. And the dialogue was a little… ehhh as well. But welcome back, Kevin! It’s been a long time lol his return still seems really random but I don’t mind it. Philip’s actions make sense to me based on everything that’s happened to him lately and it could possibly set up more tension between him and Xander/Alex. And I wouldn’t mind seeing him and Kevin team up. I thought the actor did a good job too. Too bad that they couldn’t get Robert Benvenisti back though. I didn’t realize it in 2001 but he was hot

      And, we got the word that Arianna wants to come home. I’m looking forward to that, and seeing her relationships with Gabi, Marlena, etc. on display and I hope that

      As for Rachel’s birthday party… was Days hinting at something that we’ve been speculating about since EJ was shot?

    • Portugal qualifying was the only shocker. I'm really happy for Iceland. IMO, the automatic finalists – Spain, Switzerland and Italy – had the best performances. I love the studio version of Azerbaijan, but on stage, it was a disaster.
