Sure, I agree. But I've seen all too many times it being called a soap opera, from RTS to the Guild and so on.

More correctly, it's a serial, but this new producer that came now has re-introduced self-contained episodes so even that is a shaky classification.

Of course I like Louise - she's the hottest woman on the show! :wub: I've been making edits of her on youtube. :D

Clare :wub:

I'm glad Russ stayed but does this mean Caroline's leaving for good?

How old is Zak? And Michaela is around 16, 17?

Cindy is great!! I'm liking her with Darren.

Poor Dom. He's such a good guy. I felt bad for him when Tina booted him.

I always laugh whenever I see Ellis. Such a cute kid.

Onto this past week's episodes....it was a week of revelations...Mercedes finally knows and she beat the heck out of Malachy (which he so deserved! As if he slept with her again!)...and Newt found out about Jack.

How cute was that Amy/Josh flashback to their "antlers kiss"!! When was that scene, like 3-4 years ago?

Cindy was looking hot! :wub:

So Holly kind of takes after her mother, eh. Like the way she teased Tom about Nial being his new father (and a couple weeks ago when Tom had to go to pee really badly and she stole the bathroom away from Tom :lol:).

If you think this was a week of revelations, wait until you see what's coming up in the next two weeks. One big story that's been building for a year finally climaxes with a HUGE event. ;)

Poor Mercedes, she's finally ready to settle down in a committed relationship, and she's lied to and might be infected with HIV. I totally understood her smacking Malachy. It was soo Mercedes, she doesn't take s-hit from anyone. I do hope that she can work things out with Malachy though, I like them together, they're so alike.

I like how the McQueen's are always there for each other, even if they drive one another crazy. I like how Myra and Jacqui confronted Malachy, and Jacqui and Mercedes have always had their problems in the past. I really liked the scenes when Mercedes broke down with Jacqui, after she took the HIV test and started flirting with everyone.

Amy and Josh are meant to be, and they should've never broken up. There's so much history there, and their families HATE one another, even though Sarah (Amy's sister) and Hannah (Josh's sister) are best friends. When Sarah was dating Hannah and Josh's brother, Rhys, Rhys was having an affair with Sarah and Amy's mother, for those of you who want to know.

The next few weeks are going to be explosive! :)

I think it was 2 and half years ago.

Hmm......I'm going to guess the Niall revelation? (don't tell me) :)

I love angry Jacqui and when she was about to punch Malachy.

Yeah, they're great together and their family history makes them even more interesting.

Okay so I,m watching September 2006 right now and man I feel so bad for Nicole. That girl cannot catch a break. All those a*holes bullying her and treating terribly. :angry: Plus, I really want to know who Amy's baby daddy is! Oh yeah and Sonny Valentine NEEDS to die like yesterday. HATE HIM.

The beginning of Bryan Kirkwood's tenure as producer.

None of these characters are on the show anymore. LOL!

Things start heating up in October and November 2006. And of course there's the Christmas 2006 episode where Clare tries to kill a sick Max when they go to the cabin, and OB comes to his rescue and punches Clare. LOL!

The JP and Craig storyline also begins in late 2006, that along with Clare's reign of terror would drive major storylines in 2007, of course.

No, Amy, Sarah, and Nancy are all still with the show. If you read this thread in detail, you'd know that. :P

Nicole and Sonny are gone.

Russ Owen gets more interesting in 2007, especially with his entanglement with Mercedes and how she treats him like crap. LOL!

    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
