Just show him shirtless then. No need for this story. This storyline starting with him standing half naked and looking up to the sky is just plain dumb. What is the point of this storyline??? Cameron is a [!@#$%^&*] actor. I find it funny that he hosts "You wanna be a soap star". Because the dude cant act. He is one note actor.

Welcome back Rebecca! I like having her back and she had such chemistry with the actors, especially Alicia. I finally bought Kenlee for the first time in a long time. Everyone looked like they were having fun nad it showed. I wonder if that party actually doubled as a welcome back party for RB

Ok - Rebecca IS Greenlee. She didn't miss a beat with her reactions, facial expressions, and tone. Now I see just how different Sabine was as Greenlee.... There were even glimpses of self-righteousness and bitchiness that embodies the soul of the REAL Greenlee. I loved it.

Not that I'm taking sides really - but from a business sense - what AMC has done makes sense. Rebecca's return comes BEFORE Angie/Jesse. AMC can't/won't afford 2 separate promotions to run at the same time (unless they switched them back and forth...) but it just makes sense to promote Rebecca's return first, then after her first episode, run the Angie/Jesse promotions. Jesse doesn't premiere for another week and a half - so we'll be seeing this promo for at least 2 weeks all by itself! It's not like the promo is just gonna run a couple days and disappear.

Anyway - Colby rocked it - so happy Dre took her away from Sean.

Loving the potential right now for AMC - they have started a few great things! Colby/Dre...Angie/Jesse/Quentin...a tolerable Ryan...balance... Oh and I can't wait for the Krystal/Tad wedding party tomorrow that Adam throws. And why is the entire town invited? Haha - this should be good.

Honestly - I don't even see why they're so hellbent on putting her with a man in a serious relationship. It worked with Leo - but Greenlee needs to be that mini-Erica Kane with a rougher exterior that she was destined to be at one point, before McT ruined her. Just let Greenlee be a strong female on her own for awhile, perhaps sleeping around a little, but causing trouble and being a fun bitch. I don't see why she has to be instantly paired with someone and force this overnight 'supercouple' that just won't happen.

What a letdown! See, this is what I meant about how Greenlee would be written. Those promos were COMPLETELY misleading and however they plan to write her, this was a boring return. I'm glad I didn't decide to watch the entire week in anticipation because I probably wouldn't have made it. The positive is that I do feel that Greenlee is BACK! Such a higher quality than Annie and nuawfulBabe. I always felt Sabine was too young for the role as well. Hopefully Budig can bring that mature sex appeal back to Greenlee. Sabine reminded me of a girl fresh out of college.

Real Greenlee or Not Real Greenlee, the writing still makes me roll my eyes in disgust. Insult to injury - that first Fusion scene was set to Kenlee seemingly discussing relationship boundaries for bad Kendall ... after they just finished several months of whitewashing the kidnapping (by NRG) that almost caused Kendall's two kids to die. I changed the channel after that (because I haven't had the stomach to watch the show live in weeks). Sigh.

ETA: Saw the J/A commercial while fast-forwarding through the episode - awesomeness.

    • If the shooter is Arnold, I am not going to be happy. Agreed.  Again, I really like the pace of the mystery. RonC always wrote a shocking crime, then it would be solved only through exposition at the end.  I feel like the audience is being shown some respect by them carefully closing all the loopholes.  For example, having Shawn-D call Rafe to turn in his gun was a clever device to get Gabi to confess. As much as I agree with @carolineg about the odd shift in Sophia's character, this plot is starting to make me angry.  A woman is denied an abortion and forced to raise a child?  It is gross.  The stomach pains are a hopeful foreshadowing.  But, if she fakes pregnancy, or hides his miscarriage, I am going to scream!!! Roman continues to be a mench, but I have to admit that I can never keep track of the difference between Max and Benjy.  I guess it helps that Benjy is dead.  Are Max and Benjy still related to Carly?
    • If Sally Field had been more generous about the writing I would say that her assessment is really very fair. I found Soapdish very funny. The cast is great. Delirious with John Candy and Mariel Hemingway (and Emma Samms!) came out the same year and I had expected to prefer Delirious, but Soapdish is one that I can watch repeatedly.
    • I love SOAPDISH but I think TOOTSIE is better. Generally I am quite fond of gender-benders. VICTOR, VICTORIA, most favorite. 
    • On GL we only saw young GA's Philip in very short shorts but on AMC we saw GA's Alec McIntyre in a speedo.  But, on GL, an older GA/Philip is having sex with Olivia in a hotel room where Bruce Barry was directing & he & she both end up down to nothing but black underwear & at one point his bicep is covering her entire upper body so it appears that she is naked. I think they ended up on the floor between the bed & the wall. That was when I realized that Grant's body was better than Steve Burton's. (Olivia was cheating. Her husband Alan was in the hospital.) It is notable that I can speak with any insight AT ALL about these bodies since that is not the team I play for! LOL 
    • I mentioned that last week and I am glad Tate and Sophia just realized that today lol.  I think the show is just tying up some of Ron's loose ends.   You would think Brady, Holly or even Marlena would have perhaps pointed out the age thing to Tate at some point. I am not sure I like this shift in Sophia's characterization though.  MK played Sophia as someone who always defied her mom's rules-she just didn't get caught.  She was openly trying to steal Tate from Holly with no shame, showing up at the Horton cabin in bikinis to seduce him, and blackmailing Holly to work all her shifts at the Bistro.  Once the recast started the show has acted like Sophia's lived in her room, sheltered her entire life lol.
    • I thought Dante was going to put hands on Gio
    • If Jordan never appeared again, I would absolutely not notice or miss her.  So, while Brook Kerr has her flaws, she at least appears to have a pulse and a personality as Portia.
    • That's because India, or the India MKA ended up playing, was created due to the fact that both she and Kristi Farrell were liked by TPTB, but the part they both read for didn't exactly fit either one of them so the show created two brand new characters for both actresses to play (India and Roxie) and opted not to cast the character they were intending to cast (A cousin of Beth's). I think that's why the show seemed to struggle at first with how to write both India and Roxie in their first months on the show because the characters weren't ever intended to exist.  And yes.. Grant A had a great body... but I didn't find him hot when he was playing Phillip.. only when he was playing Alec on AMC which baffles me since it was the same actor in both parts LOL  
    • I shared this on Twitter and good grief the comments. Steffy fans can be such vile real-life human beings over a fictional character lol.  
    • I remember Michael Logan interviewed L.A. actors/production staff about the movie. Susan Seaforth Hayes said she was dying to know Susan Lucci's reaction.
