Well technically....Todd and Tess are not related, although Todd and Jessica are.

Much the same way Niki and ther other altars aren't related to Kevin (whom she tried to kill), Jessica (who was in Llanfair when Tori burned it down), and Joey.

But yeah, it is confusing and very creepy to say the least.

Technically, they are related. Relation is about DNA, not about feelings. Would you really want to see Niki and Joey going at it just because "Niki" doesn't think she is related to Joey? I don't think so because whatever psychological issues are going on these people are still related by blood and DNA. I wish that weren't true though because I think Tess ad Todd would be the hottest thing to hit Llanview in ages.

Maybe it's me, but I'm gonna remain patient about Rex and Gigi's increasing airtime. For a moment it seemed Jared and Natalie were on everyday, but can we say that now? No. I think RC is just trying to cover up all his bases before November Sweeps.

Nobody cares about his characters as much as RC. He really understands them and he wants us to understand them too.

I love everything about the show these days, but why do they have to return to Mendorra??

Todd is the most interesting character on soaps these days and TSJ is doing wonders with his material. Todd & Marty? Todd & the doctor? Todd & Tess? Perfect. And he is so sexy!

Tess and James E. Reily have taken over Jessica together and it is actually fun to watch.. lol

Marcie freaks me out. It is so obvious she has no control of the situation.

JVD is very attractive these days.

I think Blair is the sexiest woman in Llanview, not to mention the only actress who acts like a real mother on soaps. And now I think John is kind of cute too. :)

Oh I agree that blood and DNA makes them related. But an altar is like a seperate person with a completely different personality, and that's what I was referring to.......if that makes any sense. And I can remember when Viki's altars would refer to them as "her family" or "Viki's family."

And no I wouldn't want Joey to get it on with Niki....that would be sick.....much like Asa and pretty much any woman.

    • Did I ever say that? I actually don't want to, but I have no problem doing so when I feel it's truly warranted. Case in point. I'll be more respectful about how you're involving yourself in these kind of discussions when you consider doing the same. Believe me when I tell you the way you attempt to dress up this attitude has placated no one, and this is not a minority forum opinion. It is easy enough, for example, to simply say that "I think many of us have underrated JFP's skills as a woman producer in an overly misogynistic industry". It's a lot easier than spending paragraph after paragraph amusedly shaking one's head while talking down to the clueless proles of SON about their blinkered, reductive opinions. And yes, I am saying that many of us have spoken up crediting Phelps for the skills she obviously has as a technical whiz and line producer. There's nothing out of turn about acknowledging that many posters know where she excelled. Or talking about where she clearly (for many of us) didn't. You don't have to agree, but you could try listening to someone other than yourself.
    • It’s a recurring tension in Daytime: the willingness to take risks can fuel a show's longevity, but the actresses themselves often bear the long-term consequences of audience backlash.
    • I pray Eva never lets Dana back into her life, because she deserves better. Dana isn't a mother, nor is she a parent.
    • Daphnee's performance very much reminded me of Anna Holbrook's on Another World when Sharlene was dealing with John and Felicia's affair. Angry but well controlled and believable. A good start for an Emmy reel. If there is one thing an evil Black mother is going to do, it is lock you out the house. Eva shouldn't have even bothered to go home.  Leslie calling Martin "Mr. President" was interesting. How much exactly does she know about the family and has someone higher up sent her to cause trouble? Anita's speech to Leslie was dignified like Geraldine Whitney (EON) or Kim Hughes (ATWT) would have gone off on somebody.
    • Thanks for posting this, fascinating read. It's clear how ambivalent Wyndham is about Justine. IMO, it reads like she agrees that the end of the storyline was bad, but reading between the lines I think she thought she was doing good work for the meat of it....which was not the case. As bad as the writing for most of that story was, it was truly made worse by her embarrassing performance. After the story concluded she kept falling back into Justine ticks, when she wasn't phoning he scenes in. Not to play Freud, but was it to tr*ll her critics?  
    • I better hear "The Emmy goes to Ambyr Michelle" come Emmy time lol
