Tika did her job today! Girlfriend was ON IT!

As much as I loved Tika's acting, though, I have to slap Layla down a few pegs for the way she was treating Vincent's random honey. It was established from the get-go that old girl had no clue that Vincent was involved with Layla or anyone else, yet Layla was treating her like she was some kind of home wrecker. Way to be a hater, Layla!

I feel like I have to seriously scarf down on some crow. Layla/Vincent were the most interesting thing about today's show. It goes to show you that human drama, even if it just falls out of no-fricken-where can still be more exciting than time traveling, jewel-thieving bullshit. I really wish the Layla/Vincent thing had been played out more over the last few weeks or even months. Vincent had some valid reasons for stepping out on her...she has been spending much too much time being Adriana's bitch. I'm only sad that I missed the stuff with Layla/Brody.

I am so disappointed. I allowed myself to dream that Blair going to Todd's was going to be a part of some scheme she and John cooked up to find out about the mystery woman that John's been searching for! <_<

Thanks Ron! Revert to the same old tired and boring jealousy routine. :angry:

Pure speculation which is safe since I've proven I am always wrong. Todd's going to say something to Blair about not being able to give the mystery woman the nightie now that it's been on Blair's diseased body. It will have to be burned. Haaaate!

I loved Vikki's going away party. Todd questioningVikki about the breaks and asking Natalie if someone was trying to killer was great. He cut right to the chase, but everyone just ignored him, thinking it was just Todd being a doom and gloomer as usual. :lol: Even better was Tess trying to distract him and feeding him cheese (or whatever that was) in the background. I think Todd will realize Tess is back eventually. She isn't doing that good a job of hiding it, but no one else wants to see it. I'm glad Vikki asked Jared how Charlie was doing. :wub:

I love that Blair is trying to find out who the sick ass bastard has stashed away upstairs. Putting on a nightie does not make her a slut. I am sure Todd will have lots of horrible things to say to her that will have the audience cheering him on, even though he is a psychotic sicko making googly eyes at the woman he gang raped. I am so glad Blair is with John now, and I hope she never goes back to this dude again.

Tina and Viki ... finally. That made my day!

My 2nd fave part, though, was Tess calling Dorian a bitch!

I thought Tess feeding Todd by hand was really weird.

I loved how everyone in the room was at odds with each other until Dorian walked in and they all ganged up on her. LMAO.

I never want her to go back to Todd either. But she's not with John. And John is only marginally better than Todd IMO. I have to see where it goes, and whether or not John will be different with Blair than he was in previous relationships. If he's just going to stand by and take the path of least resistance and follow Blair's lead, then he's simply not man enough for her. Blair needs an equal, and IMO that will be hard to find. A man that is man enough to stand up to Blair without trying to dominate her. I just don't see John being that man.

It was weird, no doubt about it, but it cracked me up. It seemed like a Tess thing to do. In reality, I wonder if it was something Bree and TSJ did kidding around, not realizing the camera was on them. It was such a quick shot and they weren't the focus. Either way, it made me laugh.

    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archivedcopy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.
