Absolutely no worries. I love Jared and Natalie, and totally get that not everyone does and I don't take it personally. My thing is Tess right now, and I can't figure out whether it's Bree's acting choices or the intention of the writers and directors. It's no secret I have never been a Jessica fan under ET or BW. She's just not my thing. But I've always said I think Bree is one of the more talented actresses on the canvas. Unfortunately, it's not showing at the moment. I think both ET and BW brought very different nuances to the character, but none has made me like her any more (although I did like Tess and Nash in the beginning).

The Tess story is just getting on my nerves, and I think part of it's because it's so campy and OTT (like many of the other stories on the show right now) and part of it is because I am disappointed that it's not more about the Buchanan FAMILY dynamics that I think are so out of kilter. It's all about creepy Tess, twirling her knives. It's just not very deep. Perhaps one of the reasons you're still bent out of shape about the Jared reveal and everything else is that there's really been no movement or transition since the BE board meeting that would make you feel any differently. No body has done anything. All that has pretty much been dropped except for the occasional run in with Clint and the rare interaction with Jared and Viki. How is the family ever supposed to heal (with or without Jared) if they're not even scratching the surface?

I am also really annoyed that Natalie and Jared aren't doing anything to try to recover BE.

Aww....that was a nice Addie/David montage. :lol: They were hilarious together. I'm gonna miss them.

I'm surprised Cole is giving up his baby! :o I thought there was going to be custody battle. This seem to come out of nowhere. I'm finding that suspicious. <_<

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
    • Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be. 
    • I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here. 
    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
    • Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
