It looks like this week is when the tagline goes into effect? I think there are going to be some interesting moments this week and some people may get their eeeeing in.

Here's a link to the promo shown at SSW:

The quality isn't that great and you can't really hear the audio due to the audience screaming but it's enough to get the gist of what's to come.

I'm teasing of course :P

Seriously though. I am happy. I've disliked their storyline from the beginning. I thought it was half-assed agenda based writing that destroyed 3 couples just to bring one to life. However, I can still like them and hate their story. I was a Liason fan going back to the beginning. That is how I wish they would have written them. Having them re-discover their love after being hurt by those who loved them, and coming together, realizing that they were meant to be together.

Instead, we've gotten nothing but out of character writing for them. The way I consider it (and some others), what we're seeing now is Jiz. Half assed writing, etc. etc. Liason, the couple I fell in love with hasn't existed since that blonde bitch came and stole Jason from Elizabeth.

Thanks for the response. I didn't even think my post had gone through because my IE started going bonkers and I had to shut down my pc.

I didn't at all care for Courtney but she and Jason were supposed to be the ultimate couple and one of destiny....see how that worked out. They basically had to negate Jason's feelings for Elizabeth to proceed with that relationship.

I like the way you wanted the story to go and IA with you that it would have been a whole lot better than it is being told but I'm not so fazed by the way it went down though. I don't have a problem with the three couples ending because I've seen them end or derail couples to facilitate others before and I'm not altogether convinced that Ric and Alexis were ended for that purpose either because that also brought about some mother/daughter conflict and had they elected to keep Jason and Sam together the Ric/Alexis thing would have been the same.

If I thought the writers intended on leaving any of the couples in long relationships and then one day just went haywire out of the blue, then I'd find it really odd but I don't think that was the case. Even though it ended up having a trickle effect, I still see the events as also being self contained. As ugly as it looks to some people, they at least got more drama from this route as opposed to everyone realizing their relationships had reached a fork in the road. If I hadn't read online reaction to this, I wouldn't have even given it another thought except for oh so now they're finally putting Elizabeth and Jason together.

Lucky :(

Thank you for punching Saint Jasus.

Down with LIARson! I can't believe Elizabeth lied to Lucky about Jake. I always get sad whenever I watch those Lucky/Liz scenes from the 90's. But Guza is known for destorying a couple to prop up another couple. It's is M.O.

    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
    • Put me in the minority in being happy about Cat not being Abby. After the two adult recasts played tag with the role, it's time for a few years of rest. I have a huge list of things I hate about RC's writing, but that choice was not one of them. 
    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
