Members Matt P. Posted February 18, 2008 Members Share Posted February 18, 2008 Any episode with Alexandra Spaulding is an episode that I'm willing to watch. Alex finding out that Sarah and Jonathan's alive, was priceless. I love Marj Dusay's snippy comebacks when she's paired in a scene with Ron Raines. The person I feel really bad about in this whole "Bertina" plot is Rick. The poor guy gets divorced, goes after his childhood sweet heart, thinks he's the father of her baby, but it's really not. I can't wait to see how Alan's going to take action against Cassie. It was nice to see Harley saying that the whole town of Springfield would be on her side, but would the law take that same side as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted February 18, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 18, 2008 I knew Mandy Bruno's performance was going to be campy and I was right on the dot. But, I did enjoy seeing Dinah and giving her advice to Marina. I mean, off all people, Dinah should know what that feels like when she lost Hart to Cassie the slut. That triangle still burns me up when I think about it. You're right Matt about the Alexandra scenes. Marj Dusay was hilarious today and it was just nice to see her, ya know? I feel the same whenever I see Tina Sloane. We've got ONE more week until we start seeing "Life Happens Here". But will it be a "Life" that I'll want to explore more of, or a "Life" that I choose to abandon? I guess we'll find out next Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted February 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2008 I didn't really watch that much today. The Natalia and Olivia scenes were too much to swallow down and accept. The Lizzie/Jonathan on-location scenes were rather wobbly but the park was very beautiful to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted February 20, 2008 Members Share Posted February 20, 2008 I'm so not digging Jon and Lizzie. And everytime Natalia says something like, "I'd give you my heart if I could..." I wish she'd just drop dead already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted February 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2008 ^^ LOL! That's too funny! Yeah, I caught that repetitive sentence too that's been used for awhile for Natalia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Noel Posted February 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2008 ^^ You're so full of sin, Jack! You really are! But I agree with you- this pastor thing needs to end soon and fast but I doubt it will happen since the church set is are in Ellen Wheeler's office, so I guess for something that took THAT long to build in her office boudoir she isn't letting it disappear too quickly.

Members Noel Posted February 21, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 21, 2008 Today, I was rather impressed by the show today. Not that I'm giving Ellen Wheeler a Werther's Original or anything. Some of the on-location scenes were really good like Cassie's farm and the scenes in her car and Josh's run in the park. However, the on-location scenes in Jeffrey's office were horrible not to mention the office at Will's new school. The waitress over at Company kind of reminded me of Nancy St. Alban (ex-Michelle Bauer). Not a bad show, but then again, not all that great either. I'll try to remain positive tomorrow.

Members Noel Posted February 21, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 21, 2008 To sum up the show today in one word, I can do it very easily. Sloppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted February 22, 2008 Members Share Posted February 22, 2008 I was so happy to see the message boards back up. This is my fave spot to post. Anyway, I am SO SICK of these writers changing up character traits based on the story they feel like has to be told. So far this week, Cassie has started getting crazy again (although I admit that's the only way I can watch her), Cabin Beth is re-emerging since she wants revenge on Cassie, Marina is being a vindictive shrew, Harley is continuing down the whore path....UGH. The show is sloppy. There is no rhyme nor reason why the characters turn on a dime like this. TIIC have to understand that for the audience to give a rat's ass about Springfield's residents, we have to understand their motivations for what happens on-screen. Even for long-time characters, like HoHarley, that all of a sudden want to sleep with their neice's fiances, we have to understand why that is (and I'm sorry - that lame excuse of the collasping church doesn't cut it). Right now, I don't give a crapola about anyone in that triangle. Not one bit. And Ms. Wheeler is going to HAVE to understand that it doesn't matter what the show LOOKS like. If the stories are crap, everything else doesn't matter. When are they going to get rid of that idiot DK? I have sat here and watched 3 SHOWS ditch their HWs during his regime (OLTL, AMC and YR) yet he's still f'ing here. The only reason I'm still watching is for KZ. When she leaves, I'm leaving.

Members Matt P. Posted February 22, 2008 Members Share Posted February 22, 2008 I'm actually enjoying the Marina/Cyrus/Harley love triangle only because Marina's taking charge and is trying everything in her power to get her aunt caught. It was also sweet to see Lillian tell off Dorris. This episode was full of surprising confrontations like Rick and Josh. Even though Josh had it coming, he really didn't deserve those words, it should've been given to Cassie. Any episode that features gems like Lillian, Rick, Alex, Vanessa, and Matt are pleasant episodes to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted February 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2008 This week for Guiding Light have been up and down for me. I enjoyed watching today and can't wait until next week because next week is when Guiding Light unveils its new look. Please let this be good. And yes, Greg. I do agree with you about how the writers are constantly changing the characters traits in order to tell a story. I couldn't agree with you more on that one!

Members DS0816 Posted February 23, 2008 Members Share Posted February 23, 2008 This soap is unrecognizable and unrelatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
