More Manning family drama!!

I am glad that Blair got Todd to back down. I don't understand why Jack is sad, all his friends and family are in Llanview.

Poor Antonio- NOT!!! Bye, bye Santi money!!!

I am so on team Nora. She is really getting a raw deal. Marcie and Lindsay deserved worse.

Cole and John should be lovers- j/k- but they have great chemisty.

Langston if you are so sad about Starr leaving, maybe you should spend some time with her instead of Markko.

Go Todd- keep starr and Cole apart- they are boring together

Dorian I love you, but please stop trying to get rid of Todd. Blair is never going to leave him- until he hurts her.

I'm enjoying the Manning angst. I can't stand Todd but it's good drama. It would be great if Jack grew to resent Starr since she gets all the attention. It was stupid that the DBL was brought up and dropped in one episode. History like that should not be used as a plot point. Soras Jack a bit and have him resentful of both Todd and Starr. If done right, the Mannings will be unstoppable!

I haven't watched yet today, but I'm getting to it. All I have to say is that I hate Todd, always have, ever since Roger Howarth played him. Dorian would make me reeeeal happy if she finally kicked him and Blair out on their asses. Starr needs intensive psychological help pronto because she's already inherited her parents' ME, ME, ME!!!! mentality. Okay yes, what happened with her and Cole and Todd was horrible...but really, before that, the whole moving to Hawaii business? Bullshit. She's a whiny loser.

And if I have to hear her scream about how much she "*LOVE* COLE! I LOVE HIM!" one more time...well [!@#$%^&*], I wouldn't mind someone sticking a shank in her.

Been busy all day and just got time to relax and watch Monday's eppy and thought it was a decent set up for the rest of the week. YAY we get Viki back tomorrow :)

:lol: how do you really feel? :P

Seriously though, I am like Starr, STFU already but at the same time, I think teenagers can fall in love. Although I do remember telling my mother the same thing about a BF of mine back in the day. I look back now at how stupid I was LOL but yeah I think this is actually realistic.

Yeah, where has she been? I am starting to think RC has very specific plans for her and that is why she had many scenes under RC's pen but none so far under GT's. I guess we will know soon enough but it really would have been great to see her handle Todd during this whole ordeal.

Does anyone else think that Dorian may have some type of smallish crush on Charlie, or something similar to that? When Dorian was telling Viki how she took herself out of the equation after she found out Viki and Charlie were togther, it made me think about it more. Also I do remember Jared asking Dorian if she was falling for Charlie when she started blackmailing him.

I think Dorian does like Charlie. But she only really likes him because Viki liked him first!

I seriously got chills last week when Todd barged into the room and beat the crap out of Cole. I still get chills. As Michael Bruno would say, "good choices" LOL. I wish they did go all the way, though. What the heck is that about?

Kristen has annoyed me since she started. It's such a meaty role; something so gutsy and assertive, as Heather Tom played Victoria Newman back in the day, that it demands someone who can deliver lines without sounding like a little whiny twerp. But she originated the role and, for some reason, I can't imagine anyone else playing this role other than her. Some acting lessons wouldn't hurt.

I also think Brittany Underwood is 100xs better than all the teen actors put together; although, Brandon does have his moments. I agree, though, she has zero chemistry with Markko. When the writers were flirting with the option of Langston/Cole, I think those two had better chemistry than Cole/Starr. But it could just be because Brittany/Brandon are better actors than Kristen or Markko are.

And even though Addie was an unexpected addition and I had no idea what could possibly be interesting about a mentally ill grandmother, she added a nice levity to this show. I hope she returns soon, too.

Oh, I totally agree on Dorian only really liking Charlie because Viki liked him first.

And even though it was understandable for awhile and still is to a certain extent, Starr's screaming and whining is getting on my nerves. When she started getting onto Blair after Blair brought up a simple good point I just went "ugh". Todd went to a huge extreme here, but Starr isn't being the most reasonable person in the situation either.

Every time there's a scene where Starr whines to Blair about some decision Starr disagrees with, I feel like slapping for not putting her foot down and saying in her lovely southern accent, "Listen 'itch, you're gonna listen to your Momma, hear me?" It doesn't make sense. Blair and Todd are such headstrong people and yet they spoil Starr to no end. It'd be nice if someone put their foot down on that girl and said, no for REALS. And it doesn't even have to be as dramatic as moving to Hawaii.

Now wasn't that a table to stay away from at the Palace. The three vipers. A very ruthless combination - Dorian Lora, Mayor Lowell and Commissioner Lee Ramsey. Watch out Llanview.

I really enjoyed the scenes between Viki and Dorian, and I haven't in a long time. I've been enjoying Dorian more and more since they got her away from Clint. Cannot wait to see this Dorian/Charlie stuff tomorrow, I love that he's finally found out that Dorian and Viki are NOT long, lost friends.

I'm enjoying Todd. SO very much. Still feel nothing where Starr is concerned. Nothing.

Did anyone else notice that when Viki was at the Palace she had on a pink shirt, and burgandy jacket and her hair was cut shorter, but when she got back to Llanfair, she was in that green sweater with tan pants and her hair was back to being long? Man, someone messed up BIG time. LOL.

    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
    • Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
    •   1. 11/1/83 cast/set list:  

      Please register in order to view this content

          The "11/2/83" video you posted of Ruth Buzzi's scenes includes Roman and Hope in them, meaning the video you posted is actually 11/1/83, since Roman and Hope aren't in 11/2/83.   2. The video you posted of "11/2/83" has scenes with Roman and Hope. As you can see from my cast/set list, Roman and Hope are not in the 11/2/83 episode (see above note):   4573...11/2/83: Cast: Mickey, Julie, Doug, Maggie, Neil, Don, Marie, Alex, Liz, Andre as Tony, Gwen, Chris, Eugene, Sandy, Letitia, Charlene, Mrs. Whiting, Wanda/Guard, Dave, Delia, Saleslady # 1, Saleslady # 2, Figure in Dark, Raven/animal, Cats/animals, Birds/animals.   2.  11/3/83 :My video collection starts with 11/4/83. so I don't have the 11/1/83 or 11/3/83 video, but in addition to the cast/set list for 11/3/83, here is also the parking clearance call sheet for that day, showing Ruth was not only in the cast/set list but did work that day:     They even had hired the animal trainer and all the animals for the day, so It's sort of a certainty that her scenes were not cut that day, or it would have been a big waste of the budget. 3. As for 11/7/83, I just fast-forwarded through that whole episode myself. Letitia is in it from start to finish. It's her big final episode where she is killed. She starts the episode saying "Eugene, are you there?" In the next act, Marlena shows up and meets Letitia's lion. Later in the episode, Letitia is killed by "Eugene" (the Salem Slasher in a Eugene mask).   So, as we can see from your own post, the 11/2/83 date you have listed on that video is incorrect, since Hope and Roman are in that video but not in the 11/2/83 episode.It seems the dates you have on all your early November 1983 episodes are incorrect.   When you post videos and suggest that my data is incorrect, do you not first compare who is in the scenes and see if that matches who is in the episode? You didn't do that with the "11/2/83" episode, which based on Roman and Hope being in it means that is actually 11/1/83. Best to do something like that first before suggesting my data and research is incorrect.
    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
