Sure wish I'd get more of Viki instead of the traveling foursome. Loved the short scenes with Viki and Charlie and I can't wait to see their date.

Enjoyed the stuff with Marko, Langston and Starr.

Very excited to see the Buch stuff tomorrow at the ranch.

I too, would love more of the Viki storyline and wish the Tommy/Marcie/Michael/Todd/John storyline would END already! What is up with Gigi, either she is really sweet or up to something?!!

Today the show was good, really balanced. My favorites were the TX storyline, David and Alex had some really good one liners! Even Roxy was funny with her worrying about being a grandmother. I did not even mind the teens, especially with the DEATH guy drugging Cole!! Anyone think it is Miles? He drugged Todd, why not Cole?

As for tomorrow, the previews did look promising. :)

I am hating the Paris, TX stuff. All of the characters, except for Vicki and Charlie, can go off screen tomorrow and I wouldn't miss them for a second.

I would be liking the kidnapping stuff better if we had more of the Todd/Blair/John scenes rather than Marcie staying in bars and with huricane victims.

I enjoy the Langston story with the Mannings and Dorian helping her.

Much better show than it was a few months ago, that for certian.

Clint was finally acting like a father today with Jessica and Natalie, to bad he doesn't tell Sarah to act like an adult as well. Matthew was cute when he was telling the story about the gun on the wall, I'm really liking the stuff at the ranch thus far, hope there is a lot more good stuff to come.

Really enjoyed the conversation between Starr and Dorian, and I reluctently admit that I am liking Clint and Nora. LOL.

Viki left Llanview the day of Asa's funeral after Dorian called her on not having a life of her own or making her own decisions or having any fun following another one of their fights while being locked in the wine cellar together. She went to Texas, stopped at the cafe, forged a friendship with the waitress and owner, and decided to take a part time job for some fun. It's reinvigorated her. She's friends with Gigi, and she is crushing on Charlie. Her family thinks she is in Paris, France.

I don't know about everyone else, but I am enjoying the reading of Asa's will. It's nice seeing nearly all the Buchanan's in one place for once, and getting some airtime.

And so far this month, with 7 out of 21 episodes aired so far, Nigel has been on six days, Renee four, Alex five, David four, and Nora and Viki four.....so things are starting to look up, at least for the time being anyway. :)

    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago that perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. Since we hardly know anything about Leslie's childhood background. In addition, Leslie said she grew up listening to The Articulettes….
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

    • I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980. 
    • terrible at using forums and inserting photos, but jake in another world had a drag persona named doris, anyone know the episode or year? http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/ffad19.jpg
    • Yes, I am familiar with Fred Silverman. Agree, the 90 minute AW a very poor decision by Silverman. I think Silverman was behind the decision to go with Texas.
    • Thanks -- you're doing God's work The Gio reveal was everything I hoped for and more. GH got it right. Head to toe, GM is a stunning physical specimen.
