Today's episode was really good IMO b/c I got to see lots of Rex & Gigi. I LOVE Rex and Gigi. I was little annoyed that they blew over Todd's holding Gigi and her son hostage. The Todd/Gigi scenes: seems a little seductive-- like he was coming on to her. I could be wrong, of course.

I am loving Vicky and Charlie-- loved Vicky's reaction when she found out he wasn't proposing- cute!

This Nash/Sarah thing seems so contrived. It just came out of nowhere-- the way he's always complimenting her appearance and--blowing off Jess-- when they barely shared a scene before. And Cristian and Jess are supposed to be kinda jealous. It doesn't make sense. They could've done a better job leading up to this quadrangle. Maybe they're trying to show Nash thinking he's a big shot with his financial backers or something, who knows.

Today's show was really good.

Rex and Gigi were adorable as always and the continuation of that flashback was perfect. Too bad the strike had to prolong this pairing because I want to see how HOT the two would be together. Right now they are cute, the history is there, we just need Adriana gone!! Damn writers strike!!

Todd and Gigi scenes were hot but in a non romantic way.....there is like this love/hate, sexual tension between the two that might be explored someday.

I was happy to fnally get some Todd/Viki scenes and was just as surprised as Viki that Todd asked her to confirm the story before he published it.

It was also good to see Natalie and Jessica's sister talk, that was cute.

Nash/Sarah...blech!

I soo loved seeing more of that 4th of July flashback! Rex and Gigi would be awesome together. I could totally see Todd coming between them later, though- because of the chemistry that Gigi/Todd had in their scenes yesterday. Reminds me of the the time that Ramsey and Todd cornered Gigi during the kidnapping SL: Todd was standing behind her and he had this little smile on his face and he was smelling her hair. FF has chemistry with a good number of guys on the show. Lots of options for pairings and triangles and such. Good stuff. Now if we could just get rid of Adriana....

^^^^ OMG Layla was bad today, wasn't she? First she is in Antonio/Talia's business, then she was in John's business, then to top it off she talks more S.H.I.T about Gigi to Natalie. Poor Tika to have to be the blabber mouth of the soap but my props for Layla looking out for her friends. To bad the friend she should have been worried more about was in NAPA with Nash...WTF was that all about??Those scenes were horrible!! lol The whole show today was a bit off...reeking of scab work. <_<

Tommorrow or today since I am posting so late or is it early, ANYWAY yeah next eppy seems promising.......................

Layla is soooooooooo annoying, I would love for someone to slap her just to shut her up. The girl apparently has no life of her own and no family left in Llanview (hell, even her boyfriend is on recurring status now, and her roommate is on the other side of the country). What else does she have to do to keep herself busy, other than stick her nose into everyone else's business.

I have to admit that I thought the Rex/Gigi 4th of July flashback was hot, hot, hot. Farah Fath does overalls really well btw. ;)

And, man Adriana is really turning into quite the ice queen isnt' she? She sounds and acts like Dorian more and more every day now.

Well I thought it was made clear today that the John/Talia/Antonio storyline is a set up but I do not know who is in on it or who is not. Is it bad acting/bad writing or is it good writing/good acting because I really figure it out. The best part about this storyline will be John getting his @ss kicked by Antonio & Cristian.

Gigi/Rex = heartbreaking s/l

Adriana was pretty harsh to her future stepson (Shane)

Marcie/Michael= heading towards a divorce

Cole is plain stupid to confront Todd especially after his beat down.....good luck to him.lol

This Tonio/Talia/John story is horrible. It makes NO sense. Antonio all of a sudden turning back into an angry caveman and being jealous over John and Talia? That came out of nowhere and they've given him no reason to. And this sex in a motel is so unlike both of them. I was wondering if this was a setup bc its the only thing that could save it but I cant even see a reasoning behind that.

Adriana is an insufferable jealous bitch. Cant stand her. Loving Gigi and Rex , though he is getting way too attached to Shane and should back off since thats what Gigi wants

    • I'm not sure I agree with Bernstein's children on that. Bernstein's life and activism here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Bernstein#Social_activism_and_humanitarian_efforts
    • Thursday & Friday's episodes were excellent. The build-up was most definitely worth the wait (2 months). TMG, I can't give her enough accolades. AM, was also absolutely incredible. I think the fallout is going to have a ripple effect. The little clues that have been dropped,  hopefully, will weave seamlessly to reveal even bigger bombshells for the Dupree's and Martin.
    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews.   
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archived copy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
