Oh yeah, it was sizzling! I hope it's just a teaser for a real shower together later this season.

I loved how Pam deadpanned trying to stop Sookie from going into Eric's office and Andy's line to Jason about getting back out and screwing around (I can't recall exactly how he phrased it) had me laughing.

I'm hating Tara's mother for bringing religion into her grief process instead of just letting the girl cry and scream.

So far, this was a really good episode. I just hope the stories tie together more this season than they did last year.

I liked her better when she was an abusive drunk. At least then Tara was clear-headed enough to avoid her.

My fondest wish is that Lettie Mae die this season. My worst fear is that she'll become a vampire. I mean, IMO, she already is an emotional vampire but I mean in the technical sense.

What a great season premiere! There was a lot of (more than usual) Jessica in this episode (Jessica in her bra :wub:) - I just think DAW is awesome and I think she can become a big star (she would be great as young Jean Grey or Rogue in X-Men: First Class - make it happen Matthew Vaughn and Bryan Singer!). Jason continues to be one of the most hilarious characters on tv: "Conscience off, dick on." (so one is so going to be quotable with my friends LOL) "Of course, man, but that's a nasty way to ask." "Yeah, I know, I was looking at you but talking to her. It's what we do here in the south." "Every time I look at you, I keep seeing these big bullet holes in your heads." RK is gold at doing comedy. :lol: There was more Pam too, so yay for that. I hope she'll be on more this season. I love ERW so it's always good to see the Queen. The Bill/Sam scene was hilarious. :lol: Good ending with the warewolves - I prefer to see them than Maenads. The only downside was Tara being stupid and annoying as usual.

I got suckered in by the great promos, got HBO, watched the premiere and felt a huge let down. I can't believe that this show is produced by Alan Ball. The writing, casting, and acting is just soo mediocre. Eric, Pam, Jessica, Hoyt. Jason, Lafayette, and Andy are the characters that keep me from bailing.

Being the season premiere, the episode was naturally charged with more plot than character. I feel that, in general, it takes a few episodes to really have a more rounded experience of all the characters and their sides.

Loving the ratings.

      To me, Judith McConnell (Sophia, SB) was more poised for Beth than anyone else. Yes, she was, as Sister Beatrice.

      Is that even still possible? I thought that too at first but with Jan saying that she's never lied to Ashley about who her father is... Does Ashley even know who her dad is?

      Unfortunately I only had one or two pages from those months. I believe I posted them but it would only cover one or two shows.

      I think she would have been fine, although Beth was a thankless part. She probably was seen as aging out of the genre after AW.  I forgot she was on Sunset Beach.

      OK, I like the Cat interactions with Xander and EJ. And, I get that there are new writers. But, Clyde was shot 12/11/2024.  So, why have we not heard Xander or EJ's response to the situation for five months!  Clyde shot EJ (or he ordered him shot), shouldn't he react more to the news of his coma.  And, I've never heard EJ or Kristin mention that the woman who lived with them last summer was a fraud. Rather than giving lip service to the idea of family and community, at least it feels like everyone no longer lives in a bubble. Also, while it makes sense to use the hospital as the prize in the war between EJ and Xander.  We all have to admit that under the prior writer, at least Xander, and I think EJ, were dissuaded from buying the hospital went it started to go under in March.  I get the magic sepsis cure makes the hospital more valuable.  But, it seems like the people who are going to get rich are going to be the pharmaceutical companies.  Unless, Kayla and Sarah are going to start manufacturing prescription drugs out of the coffee machine in the lobby.  -- crud, I broke my promise to stop complaining about illogical this story can be.

      I don't know if I could have seen that from her, honestly. But I feel like, outside of GH and her original DAYS stint, American daytime really didn't pay much attention to her, even though they should have.

      Co-sign, 100% on this one. Xander was entirely in the wrong.

      I'm seeing some interesting takes on this thread regarding Dani's behavior/personality, including right now. Here's my take on her: I think that Dani relishes in lighting people up. I think that's for multiple reasons.  I feel like Dani has probably largely been like this throughout her life. And that she gets joy in dragging people whenever she feels like it's necessary. I believe she feels like this is her being herself. I think one big reason why she's particularly giddy right now is because she's able to go back to acting this way, minus the hurt she's been dealing with due to Bill's affair. She got in Bill and Hayley's faces after their affair/wedding, but she was miserable doing it due to dealing with the hurt of that situation. Nicole's situation with Ted/Eva/Leslie allows her to act this way minus her suffering like she did at the hands of Bill. I believe she does empathize/care for her sister but is also interestingly enough rejuvenated by this situation. This situation is energizing her and making her act more like old self again, minus being hurt by her own's husband's infidelity. I think Nicole's situation is also a distraction for her from dealing with her own failed marriage to Bill.
