I disagree, FF has been great on OLTL in dramatic emotional scenes, when Shane was kidnapped, on the roof top, and in the restroom with Shane/Rex. Today Farah did just fine, It was obvious from her body language, and facial expressions that she was nervous, hurting, and struggling to tell Rex the truth. Yes, a face full of tears would have been more emotional but I don't neccessarly thin they were necc. in todays scene.

Ok so as for todays show, yeah it was very good.....I even enjoyed the Talia/John/Antonio scenes. And yes, I still think Natalie is on to Jared....I guess we will find out tomorrow! I do not think Adriana heard Gigi's confession, if anything she just caught the end of it but she will be suspicious.

Starr is such a little bitch. So because you're having a tiff with your dad, you now want Marcie to take back your brother? The brother that she (Marcie) kidnapped? I feel no sympathy for this character. Out of ALL the things Todd has done, now she "sees him as that rapist." GMAFB Starr. God I can't wait until Ron Carlivati comes back and fixes the mess Tomlin has created.

I can't believe you are picking on the Sanctimonious St. Starr of the Uptight Ego. Didn't you know, Ryan, that she can pontificate all around town, be a spoiled little brat to everyone, and also do all the duties necessary like boinking your boyfriend any time you wish? We should all strive to be like Starr...after all, she is a Manning and we know how perfect they are ;)

WOW, that was f--ked up of Starr. She may be mad at Todd but now she's messing with her brother's life and Marcie's as well. Not cool. He doesnt deserve to be shuffled YET again. She isnt thinking about his well being. Marcie was crazy and lost her mind and Starr is bringing her back to that dark place when she is trying to move on. I wish she had gotten back at Todd another way besides using an innocent baby for revenge. But I guess she is taking after her parents since thats all they did with her growing up

My Starr hate has surpassed my hatred for ANY OTHER soap character. Her accusing telling Marcie that Todd physically abused Sam/Tommy is low, and just proves that she IS JUST LIKE HER FATHER. She will lie and ruin other peoples' lives if it gets her what she wants.

I totally agree!!!!!! The writers are fast on the way of making Starr a 'hated' character!!!! It is a shame really. Plus, KA cannot handle these truly adult storylines yet--- She has the promise, but her acting is still quite amateurish & tell tale. It is often painful to watch the eppys ladden with lots of Starr Marko Langston, & especially Cole.

She learned from the best or worst. Whenever Blair would get mad at Todd, she knew the best way to hurt him was to take away his kids and she had no problems hurting and using those kids to do it. Todd did the same thing. Starr grew up with that and now that she's mad, she knows the best way to get revenge is to make him lose a kid since thats how she's watched her parents handle being mad at each other

^^^^^ I agree with both of you, Starr is definately ALL Manning! I was LMAO that Starr's little scheme backfired. As Dorian would say, you are just an amateur....a PUNK! :lol:

Speaking of Dorian, Adriana was definitely acting like her talking [!@#$%^&*] about Gigi's clothes and job. I cannot wait for the day until Gigi bitch slaps her.

Good show today. I cannot believe how much I have been enjoying John lately, maybe because he is smiling more? I liked his scenes with Natalie/Jared and Gigi.

I must repeat..........Natalie has to know what was on the tape!! I know she erased it today after the bullshit Jared told her about him confessing his feelings to her on it but Natalie definitely rewound that tape and listened from beginning to end. She has to be playing with his mind and heart now, IMO that is why she will be so hurt to see him kiss Gigi tomorrow (Wed.) I dunno, I am usually wrong at these things but we will see........

That line and scene was funny but damn put some meat on Justis Bolding. I really like Blair and Christian's friendship, it comes across natural and not forced.

      I found the reference in the AWHP synopses -- it was 1995 but not directly related to the loanshark.

      One of the dumbest situations (Lando) ever. What audience member is going to invest in a storyline with a recast they don't like and a triangle where one character is short-term? It bombed as it should have done. So much of JFP's tenure just reeks of desperation. I don't get how someone could produce SB (which did have flaws but was often brilliant) but make so many terrible mistakes at GL.   I still think JFP would have worked better as a director and music supervisor. Her music work at SB was top notch.  It just seems that Rea was minimized during JFP's tenure because I can't imagine her okaying so many of these casting choices.

      We see the same with GH, where Mark Teschner, the casting director, reportedly has less say since Frank Valentini took over. Some producers want to take over every aspect of their shows.  I think Lando may have been a CBS push.

      No idea but she won Emmys & she was the Casting Director at the same time for both ATWT & GL. She hired Lisa Brown with no job for her. Then Marland made Brown his muse so he created both Iva & Nola for her. But, I think we know that Jill does what Jill wants.

      I did notice a decline in the quality of the performers being cast once Betty R vacated/retired from her position. We would have been spared from the nightmares of some of the castings that dominated the show in the last decade or so of the soap. JFP was an example of someone, no matter the gender, who had no business being in the position they were in.

      If Betty Rea was the casting director, why was so much of GL during JFP's reign cast by her? Walker, Deas, Crampton, Lando, etc. JFP takes credit for Dusay as well. What is the point of having a casting director, if you don't let her do her job? What happened when Rea left?

      So much on here slips my mind but this is the first I remember hearing of Peterson's passing. Very sad. Nell was a thankless role, clearly set up for a cheating storyline with Frank, but Peterson did her best.  Betty Rea Rea was the casting director for the soap opera “Guiding Light” from 1970 to 1996 and simultaneously the casting director for “As the World Turns” from 1979 to 1983.
