Interesting...

I wonder if it has to do with Babs or Paul?

Interesting that it's July and not a 'sweeps' period.

Please No!!

Word to that. Paul and Meg are the most boring couple on daytime.

It HAS to be the Sofie/Paul rape story. I can't think of any other reason why he'd come back.

Apparently, it seems the deal that ATWT thought they had worked out for Jesse Soffer to return for two episodes has hit a snag. Now, neither side seems to know one way or the other if Soffer's return is going to happen.

Well according to the last SID they say it isn't happening.

Did this turn out not to be true?

I think so.

I'll say it again. <_<

Neither side could come to a compromise, so Soffer's brief return has been shelved until further notice.

I have no idea why Joey got his own apartment. As has been pointed out, how many people will we see visiting him there besides Vanessa?
I know some of you praised the set, but I continue to think it looks like a Wayfair special. Nothing about it looks expensive.
The location of the fireplace is actually laughable. That was done to get a shot from the other side of it when there's romance going on, and it makes no sense. Is it in the middle of the room?
None of it says Joey is a rich and powerful man. Regardless, the set wasn't needed, especially on a show with so many other needs.

I think I've identified the reason why Sisters has never become a real memorable classic, despite six seasons and 127 episodes. It's just such an odd mixture of incredibly dark and dank stories, only to completely whiplash and have extreme whimsical stories. Yet, it never seems to hit that sweet middle ground where you can point and say "yes, this is what Sisters is about".

I do agree with you on the question of whether Joey really needed an apartment but in this case, I just think it's lazy storytelling. They could have sequestered a darkened corner and stuck a sign that said "Hospital Staff Entrance" and had Ted and Shanice find the man splayed out in front of a door. Ted and Shanice are checking for a pulse as the scene goes black. That could have actually played out on a Friday and by Monday, had the man on a gurney on the main floor of the hospital and had the rest of the action play out there. As for Jacob and the informant, use of the area that looked like it was in front of an abandoned warehouse (where Jacob spotted Marcel taking a bribe from Joey) that was used in Season 1 could have sufficed for their rendezvous. As for Jacob and Smitty, they're in-laws, they could go jogging together in the park and it would be unlikely to raise much suspicion.
But yeah, building Naomi an actual office or at least a bedroom for Anita (who might actually need a bed to lay her head with her health needs) would have been a much better use of money than a place for Joey and Vanessa to get it on (especially when they have shown their preference for the craps table in the back room of the casino they normally use).
Is the fact that Leslie has such broad access to Ted's suite going to finally push this show to give Ted a proper apartment, somewhere away from Leslie? This storyline is an insult to everyone's intelligence.

Thanks, vetsoapfan, but I'm afraid there would be too few people interested in it. I think there are like ten of us in the world who would be interested enough to read it. LOL. Even in this forum, which is represents a minuscule percentage of the general population, most of the people here are interested in just the last years of the show. We're a subgroup within a subgroup within a subgroup.

Someday, someone's gonna make a horror film about a demented stamp collector...and when they do, I'll be among the first to see it.

I'll get there one day soon. 😀 I'm excited about it too. Part of me is losing a little interest in 1999, but I have to see what happens to Annie and how they redeem Holly first. Then I'm definitely going back to that era.

Not only was it sickening, it also was irresponsible. I realize False Memory Syndrome is real (and really unfortunate) in the field of psychiatry, but that storyline made psychiatrists look, at best, like charlatans; and at worst, like sexual predators. Then, to make matters worse, once Dr. Caspian discards Georgie, she comes dangerously close to becoming Winnetka's answer to Jill Bennett, stalking the man and even pounding on the window outside of a restaurant as she begs him to take her back!
Cowen/Lipman: "But we're not a soap!"
Khan: "No, you're not a soap. You're a BAD soap."
By the time Charley decides to run a sting operation in order to expose Caspian - right on the heels of Teddy and Lucky running their own sting to trap Falconer's killer - I was just ready for it all to be over.

Wow, thank you for posting! I was in college at the time and never saw this. She's such a pro and looked fabulous! It almost felt like that was Erica Kane and not Susan Lucci in some ways haha. I can't believe MIB couldn't pronounce entrepreneur haha.
