Well I liked todays show. Of course there was no PEG so that could be why. Which is sad because I love Paul, just wish they would give him a decent story all ready. Anywho, I'm already liking this story for Brad/Katie/ Liberty. I think Brad as a daddy is gonna be funny and sweet. Looking forward to Liberty/Parker as well. That should be interesting with Brad's daughter and Jack's son. Good storyline potential there.

I'm also enjoying Carly and Holden also. Their friendship is great and I'm hoping it will wake up Jack. Liked that Parker called Jack on all the fighting and how Jack decided to try and have a decent dinner with the family. Also liked how when the baseball day was brought up and said how it was a great day. Carly leaving right at that time was perfect as the old Carly would have really drove that point home. Also liked how she told Jack that before he would've thought if she was calling him about the kids she had an alternative reason. However, she probably should've called him. But I myself am divorced and wouldn't have called my ex for a fall off a skateboard. Would let my son call him himself when we got home. But then I guess there's no drama there for Carly and Jack is there.... :P

It was a solid eppy...I think I was just too affected by B&B's eppy, that I got a little disappointed when Holden didn't really roast Jack's patootie after looking forward to it all weekend.

Chris is sweet...but there's no way I'd try and kiss anyone who was feverish and just vomited.

Katie deserves the hell that is Liberty.

At least in the wake of Martha's leaving Tom and Margo have been let out of the "let's listen to Katie's problems" pen. I don't like Em, but listening to her give Margo what-for always puts a smile on my face.

I don't know what to say about Carjack anymore. Oh, other than I'm tired of listening to them argue. Yeah, I know...this too shall pass...but I'm tired of feeling Kicked Around by TIIC. Yeah, Holden is cute trying to be Carly's friend. But I'm already tired of it. I've already BEEN THROUGH this story TWICE with Carjack in the past two plus years...depressed Carly/Jack finds an unlikely friendship with Simon/Katie, and tries to move on without Jack/Carly, leading to even more chaos. HOLDEN??? You know how desperate TIIC are when HOLDEN is suddenly thrown into the Carjack orbit.

And that is what I think will wreck the story. I am NOT a Carjacker, but you just get the feeling Carjackers are going to stage a huge revolt here shortly.

It isn't just that base that's being jerked around, though. There's enough torture Passanante and company are dishing out for the entire fanbase of the show.

My prediction? A writing and/or EP change takes place at ATWT before fall.

I loved sexy Casey in his boxers. I just love him and wish the show were better so I could see him more. I still can't believe people thought he was fat and ugly when he first joined the cast. That's just fine, he can be mine! :P

The scene between Emily and Margo was AWESOME as is all the extra Tom and Margo attention, but I do think it's mainly because they're losing so many favorites. Kinda like when GL started featuring Billy, Beth, Lillian, etc. after they fired all those cast members.

I've given up hope that JP will be axed. Especially if they are nominated for an emmy for best show and writing. I'm just hoping she comes to her senses soon and realizes CARJACK has to be the endgame. And for the love of god give Paul a storyline where he doesn't look like a whiny, pathetic loser.

Yes, I know...and even occassionally acknowledge that Carjack isn't the only couple being hosed on this show. Part of my disappointment is much more than "oh...Carjack's still apart". It's the level that all the stories seem to sink to...I've seen True Crime stories that were more heartwarming than this show is at times. I continue to believe that Carjack is endgame, but by that happens, everything they were will be destroyed. And when you contrast that with the perfect bow other couples get their stories wrapped in, it drives me nuts.

Yeah...unfortunately I don't see changes coming either. I get convinced everytime we hit a lull in sweeps, and it's never materialized yet. Look at how ATWT is clinging to the stats Nuke generates (like +60000) or whatever it is, even as the overall numbers tank. No one's goin' nowhere.

    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in 1990, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
    • Great thought.  I mostly forgot about Kate's cancer.
