It'll be worth it. :)

Oh man, that was a great sequence with cutting back and forth of the the vows with Gigi/Shane/Brody! And I liked how they showed Dorian looking on as Rex/Adriana exchanged rings. Great directing and breakdown writing right there!

I just watched the last two episodes on my DVR. See, other soaps? This is how you do a soap wedding. I loved that Rex and Adriana ended up getting married. I LOVED Adriana screaming at Gigi on Monday's episode. And to top it all off, they played a FERGIE song for the wedding montage! I love this show.

Thanks, Ron Carlivati!

I FLOVED yesterday's eppy and loved today! The writing, direction and acting right now on One Life to Live is top notch.

Dorian is so evil on so many levels & such a multi tasker.lol If you think about it she has so many lies going on; BE take-over, blackmailing Charlie to keep his lie with Viki, secretly trying to stop Adriana's wedding, and now manipulating Gigi. I love Dorian but Karma is gonna bite her in the ass!

The Rex/Gigi/Adriana and now Brody storyline has so many layers to it, amazing writing going on. Loved the scenes panning from the wedding to Gigi crying in Rex's old jersey.

Jared/Nigel/David/Nora/Clint scenes were funny.

I am still not feeling the teen storyline but I do like the scenes with John/Blair.

Speaking about yesterdays eppy, did anyone else wanna tell Natalie to STFU when she started bad-mouthing Gigi? Bitch, look where you came from, and how many men have you stolen? Remember Seth, Christian, John? They were all attached when you decided to stick your nasty claws in them.

Again another good show. I am really starting to like the character of Blair. She has so many flaws yet I want to root for her. For the last couple of weeks it has been nice to see her sticking up for her kids against the jerk she is married too. Todd is not use to people telling him "no" and quite a few people told him today. I enjoyed the scenes with her and Starr where she realized how much she was responsible for what was happening.

I like the scene at the end with Cole/Starr looking at the sonogram picture. I sort of hope there isn't something that does cause her to lose the baby because I think it would an interesting story of a teen couple trying to raise a child.

Again wedding stuff was good. I still don't know if I would rather see Gigi/Rex, but this group of four could be much more interesting to watch than other love quads on television. LOL at Dorian's face when Roxy sat down next to her and toasted glasses.

Ugh, I was hoping Rex wouldnt marry that twit. LMAO at Roxy once they did get married

LOVING Blair. Love that she's no longer taking Todd's crap and taking a stand for herself. Her scenes with Starr were so sweet and heartfelt

I also liked the look Cole gave Todd and that push...lol

    • Dallas, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, and Knots Landing episodes for the week of October 24, 1983.
    • I really don't want to see some old P&G actors on the show. To me Lindstrom and McLain have brought nothing special. The show needs to find new talent, so it has it's own identity,which overall they have. Timon, Tricia, Ambyr are breakouts. Most of the others are fine .We all know the exceptions.
    • I would wager that was because it was a new character for the likes of Devon, Lily and Nate to interact with. Watching the likes of Billy fall in love again-Phyllis, Chelsea,Lily and now Sally is repetitive, especially when he is no prize. Josh doesn't really do long term couples. So every year or so they swap partners. It diminishes them as characters as they don't seem to grow or learn from the past. We know those characters so well and they've been through just about everything, so the only solution is to involve them with new characters and have them react to the newbies drama. They tried with Ashland and the Rosales but Josh dumped the latter and wrote so badly for Ashland who could have been a long term antagonist. All we got was another short lived marriage for Victoria and another accidental killing. And Josh thinks having them sit in restaraunts for the whole episode talking business, mergers, takeovers and job switching is interestring. It's not. I feel sorry for the actors who must know they are serving shite.
    • If I were to cast a Soap Opera veteran as Jan.. I would have picked Krista Allen (of Days and B & B fame) since she did move to the Atlanta area in late 2023... and knows all there is about the Soap opera way of filming.  And I could see her playing Ashley's mom.
    • Is the set for Lulu's new house an updated version of the set used for the childhood home of Luke, Bobbie and Pat Spencer?
    • I feel like AMC would be the easiest of their soaps to revive but a reboot seems cursed at this point. I wish we had more insight on what was pitched for the primetime reboot as well as these movies. That would give us a better idea of why it keeps getting shot down.
    • Mansion of the Damned sure is a "talkative" horror movie.  In the past when I've watched those episodes, I was paying attention to The Edge of Night characters and not really zeroing in on the rehearsals/blocking/filming of the actual movie.  This time I've been following the plot of Mansion of the Damned pretty closely, and all I can say is Hester Atherton and Nicholas Harriman are about the most chit-chatty Witch and Devil I've ever heard in my life!     
    • Ashley and Derek have been so isolated that I need the show to develop something, anything to justify their presence. It's not that I think Joey being her father will be the greatest story ever told but at least it would be something and connect her to more characters. I just need the show to move forward with them. Out of all the characters, these are the only two with no storyline/development. We have recurring characters who are better used with less screentime. If the show is going to keep them on contract they need to do something with them.
    • I never thought I'd say it, but SC is B&B's best male actor - by far. SK is next. Has there ever been a US soap that has so much female talent surrounding by Himbos? KKL, JMW, HT, KB, AN, RB could be/have been leading ladies on any other soap. Even the secondary females are the ones who carry their scenes. It's been rare periods when B&B actually had a few solid male cast members. JMW really did a great job in the scenes with AN. Considering everything we've witnessed the past couple of years with Steffy/Hope, I thought reveal may ring hollow. JMW proved me wrong. No doubt this is Emmy material.
    • You won't even accept a minute cameo from Ms Marcil herself so she can collect her cheque?
