Honey I Shrunk The Ryan

Ryan should really take up his wife's advice to go see a shrink because it certainly is in the making. I mean, anyone who raises their fist to someone, participates in a fight club, kidnaps someone to a plane to have his blood drawn, allows Fish n Chips to hang a noose around somebody, pontificates about crap he knows nothing about, is in dire need of some Dr. Phil intervention or to just see a regular psychiatrist. This guy loves to also manhandle women and thinks he is just HIGH HO to do anything he can but dare anyone else to do it and they get the bug eyed stare of their life. I would, however, feel very sorry for the shrink that has to deal with someone of the likes of Ryan. Odds are that doctor would end up in a psych ward himself for at least a month since he would be feeling suicidal over having to hear about Ryan's moaning and whining. Lord knows what else he has done in his life that needs some professional help since I am sure St. Ryan did some thing in his Con Ho days that make him a few fruit loops short of a cereal bowl. Add to making them really extreme crap and he is one Krispy Kreme short of a baker's dozen. Add to that he is missing his own sprinkles and not able to actually look somewhat sane. Insanity is something that runs high in the Lavery family and odds are Ryan has something wrong with him since mental disorders run in the family. Mom and dad had some issues themselves so maybe he got something passed down from his dearly beloved mother or father. Something tells me it is from the father whereas from the mother he got his superhero genes to go defeat villains like the One Armed Penis Envy or one called Mr. Flatulence who can knock out anyone with a whiff of a fart. Hey that is something Ryan can do! He has his superhero cape shoved up his Dynamite Kiddo butt that whipping it out (thankfully he is not whipping out "his other thing") would knock everyone dead over the smell. Superman can stop a bullet, Batman has his gadgets to stop the evil Penguin and Riddler and Joker and Catwoman, Spiderman slings with his web. What is Super Ryan Dynamite Kiddo's power? Whipping out his crack infested cape to knock down the competition! Talk about inventing a new perfume!

DAAAAMN -- Debbi Morgan was on fire during those chapel scenes, praying to Jesse to let Frankie live. :wub: I love her!

I'm pretty much enjoying everyone and everything on this show right now, except nuBabe and the JR/nuBabe/Ritchie triangle. I even like Ryan!

I loved Pam's straight weave today...she was looking good. I enjoyed the playful Erica/Pam/Val scenes :)

Balance has been so great lately.

I liked everything Angie/Jesse/Frankie.

But the other stuff was pretty blah.

What the hell was up with Erica saying "''I'm a talk show host, not an accountant!''?! This from the woman who built and saved Enchantment a hundred times over? Good job, writers -- make Erica Kane, a once shrewd businesswoman, into an airhead. Please get her away from this New Beginnings nonsense...... PLEASE!

It was a great episode, imo!

I also love the balance lately and how something happens in just about every episode. It's such a relief after months of the same characters saying the same thing every single day during the "Crash" storyline.

Leave it to Adam to give JR a bug and pretend it was an heirloom. I'm glad he knows that Krystal is behind JR moving back into the mansion and I can't wait to see what he does next.

I can't blame Richie for manipulating Emma into wanting to save his life. Annie & Ryan's resistance only makes me root for Richie all the more.

Ryan's scenes with Kendall almost made him seem human for a change; however, I hated most of the flashbacks because they reminded me of how bad Rylee were together.

Debbi Morgan gave another excellent performance. I especially was riveted when she was praying to Jesse for help.

Of course Erica wouldn't pay attention to all the minor details of her businesses; she's always been the creative force, not the accountant! It was great to see her take care of Jack and I liked how we got our first glimpse of the senator from his speech, although I had to wonder what country Pine Valley is set in where the current president would approve of a task force against the fat cats. It certainly isn't Dubya!

Exactly. Accounting is a whole different ballfield from running your own company and that is why you hire a CFO to look out for the finances. Of course, the CFO has his/her own staff working with the company as well

There is a reason why they have an exam to be an accountant....because it is something in and of itself. My mom actually used to work for a CPA firm and one of the partners there took the exam twice and failed...on the third try, he passed. Third time's the charm :)

      I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.

      So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows.

      The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.

      So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.

      It does seem cheap and lazy for this show to have just one family. Passions was heavily criticized but it was nicely structured with a total of four families.

      I think it was definitely a surprising reveal in the storyline. I had a hard time appreciating Evan because I couldn't get behind his interest in Amanda. But that's because I never thought Sandra Ferguson made her a compelling character (although to give her credit she occasionally had decent emotional scenes with Mac or Rachel).

      I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.

      I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.

      Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?
