ATWT: Look for another special episode from ATWT, this time for Valentine's Day.

AMC: Several AMC cast members are skittish about their future with the show - with good reason, according to those in the know.

GL: Tom Pelphrey (Jonathan) wouldn't reveal the length of his latest GL stay, but tells Digest "I'm back for a while." As for any recent contract talks with the show, the actor says, "I will confirm or deny nothing".

OLTL: Given Tobias Truvillion's (Vincent) recent to bump recurring, fans are concerned that Tika Sumpter (Layla) may be next, but an OLTL setsider says there is plenty more story for these two NAACP Image Award nominees.

Y&R: Vincent Irizarry's future on Y&R isn't looking too bright, suggests an insider.

Well duh does any new character ever survive being involved in a nikki and victor storyline. :lol: I hope amc brings david home where he belongs.

If you aren't kendall and greenme and work for fusion your days are numbered. Aidan should of been gone years ago. I think if sydney is paired with Frankie and it works she might have a shot at staying otherwise shes gone as well. I think josh may or may not be gone. An I don't think Colby is going anywhere, she has major chemistry with dre but if Robin christopher comes back to amc she might be in trouble.

Rumor has it it's another fantasy-type episode. I suppose it's easier for the scabs to write. I don't want to hate the idea immediately, but I do. I just find them completely unnecessary. I don't mind single-focus eppys, like the one about Em's hookerdom, even though those can be just as disruptive to the flow of the show. But more fantasy? *groan* With my luck, the Valentine's Day eppy will have a blissfully happy Jack married to Katie, raising a flock of bunnies, while Carly's a-mouldering in her grave. *rme*

I like Vincent, especially since the boxing story ended. I even like Sean. Was never crazy about Layla, though. And I wish they'd remember that Vincent and Natalie are good friends. Wasn't there a hint of a possible past run-in with RJ when Vincent was first introduced?

    • It actually felt like TM-G was a bit softer in her scenes with nu-Ted that kind of matched his meeker energy as Ted on Friday. I was very curious how she’d play off him and now I have my answer.
    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in 1990, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
