ATWT: Week Of June 30th

[Quent]

That scene where Paul takes two of Meg's friends out to celebrate is almost an exact duplicate of the scene where Craig took Meg and two of her friends out to celebrate. (Of course, then Craig went nuts in front of them)

[P.J.]

What freaked me out was at Fashions, I SWORE that was Barbara helping her at first.

Holden is DEAD to me. He's beyond rephrensible. He's not lying for Carly's sake, he's lying because he's a coward.

[JackPeyton]

where does Carly stand in this with you?

[Juliajms]

I liked Paul and Meg at the very beginning of their relationship, but I'm a little bored with them. Meg has dumped Paul for being Paul once to often. I'm not sure if I can be won over again.

My biggest issue with Carly/Holden is that he continues to lie to Lily. Plus, I can't believe Carly would just sell Lily out like that. She can be impulsive sometimes, but I just can't believe she would betray Lily with such little provocation.

I look forward to Jack and Janet.

[P.J.]

^^^Carly's wrong...but I love her, and I think Holden's using her. I hate that she's done this, but I know she regrets it too. I'm not really getting that vibe from Holden. I think he would have broken up with Lily in a NY minute, had Carly's reaction post-boinky not been to run for home and write it off as a ONS.

Another day another show today.

[MTSRocks]

I see the Carly/Holden ONS like the Phyllis/Nick one on Y&R, with the latter being better.

[Soapsuds]

Best show in months/years...LOL. I am loving Barbara...and James Stenbeck being mentioned??? Must be a Susan Dansby script. Nice to see Lisa too.

[Ann_SS]

Good to see Margo and Tom celebrating their anniversary. Too bad Hal can't be at their anniversary party.

Casey is so stupid and naive. These men will never learn with Emily.

Meg + Paul = Boring as hell. Haven't they had this same conversation a million times before? Sophie needs to fix those bags under her eyes.

[Soapsuds]

I agree with you. But with Barbara in the mix it is less boring to watch the Meg/Paul pairing. Tomorrow looks good too. Cant wait to see Nancy tomorrow.

[P.J.]

^^^I'll be glad to see Nancy tomorrow too.

Eh...it was an okay show. FLOVED Babs pulling out all the stops on Sophie...but a lot of it seemed like a repeat of yesterday's eppy. And I know Sophie got a lot of money from Paul...but seriously, she keeps pulling out bundles of cash like rabbits out of a magician's hat.

Loved Lisa telling Babs she'd scare ghosts from the grave..that has to be the line of the day.

Paul and Meg aren't simply boring...they are what boring is after it rots and decays. Whatever stinky mess that is.

I did love Casey standing up to his parents---I do think Tom and Margo are insufferable most of the time. Regardless of Tom "doing his job", he had some pretty good hints that Chris did misuse his position at the hospital where Ali was concerned. And Margo...OMG, the woman drives me bonkers with her self-righteous bent. (Didn't her inaction after Craig's last talk with her let him escape after bombing Paul's car??) I just wish Casey's "stand" wasn't motivated by Emily. I wish it was just standing up against the tendency of the Hughes clan to be full of themselves.

PS...I think Dansby's been promoted to breakdown writer. I hope she pulls some double duty, because I'm not real thrilled with the rest of the bunch we have.

[Soapsuds]

Today should be a great show. I think a gem compared to other ATWT eppys so far.

[brimike]

I thought there were no more breakdown writers, that JP and LL were writing all five breakdowns every week, and the whole breakdown team was moved to scripts?

[Soapsuds]

That's what Toups said.

[Sylph]

Dansby deteriorated in quality... She was very good once, but now... So-so.
