ICAM. I was wondering where you were, MTSRocks! I have been loving Nikki lately and MTS has been hitting it out of the ballpark with this story.

Same here. My sister can't stand him, but I think he's great. :) I liked Karen's insult to Adam because it gave Nia something different to do, not because of a dislike for Adam. It gave the character a little bit of spunk and I liked the way she delivered the lines.

I was fixin to say something, but then I saw your post and thought - what's the point. Thanks for stopping me! :)

Yeah, it's time to freakin' forget about those fights. Y&rfan will never understand the stuff everyone is telling him/her, so why bother. Let's rather focus on the series and just let everyone post whatever they want. ;)

Still, this doesn't mean they'll actually do something with Karen. They'll probably drop her soon anyway.

I see karen gone again soon. But man should they keep her. Nia is amazing, and i could picture her paired with any male on this show and in just about any type of storyline. Karen could easily work with Jack, Nick, Brad, JT, etc... and cause all kinda of drama. She just doesnt work with Niel, IMHO.

Bless the Beasts and Children.

The song comes from the film of the same title, and was originally sung by Karen Carpenter. That film was also the original source of "Cotton's Theme" (which later became Nadia's Theme). Most memorably, the song was played when Snapper said his farewells to his biological son, Chuckie, to whom he had just donated a kidney. Chuckie left never knowing Snapper was his father. This scene is still available on Crackle, Sony's free "minisode" network. See below.

Recently, it was re-recorded by Michael Damian's niece (that was today's singer, I think), and played surrounding Lily's miscarriage. I didn't find it effective them...but in retrospect that is because CKLily didn't play the emotions right. I found the song was much more effective today, probably because young Jamia cried real tears. I fear she has been undervalued, in part because of all that annoying and inappropriate singing. Are these actresses coming back?

Translation: I have several opinions that some disagree with, therefore I am somehow considered inferior and "insane" and it's best just to ignore me. And if you feel the need to attack me at every opportunity, feel free to do that because after all, it is crazy old ME we're talking about.

PS. I'm a guy.

    • I wonder if less set use was preparing for the move. They probably were preparing for this for awhile now 
    • The early part of the season is decent. After that, Season 9 is probably one of the worst seasons until season 13. Season 10 is a little worse.    That would have made sense, even if it cost us one of my favorite scenes (Ben putting Lilliemae in a headlock). That's an excellent storyline and leads to the show's last strong season finale. 
    • The TVC Studio 31 that they used for 38 years was only about 13,730 sq ft., according to the TVC website specs: https://televisioncityla.com/stages-offices/ Sunset Las Palmas Studios has 11 sound stages, which go up to 20,000 sq ft., though we're yet to learn which of those sound stages will house B&B. Depending on which one, the specs for it can be found here: https://www.sunsetstudios.com/los-angeles/las-palmas-studios/ Sound Stages 4, 5 and 9 are available for use starting September 1, 2025. It's unclear if either of those stages would be used by B&B since they begin production there starting Tuesday, August 19, 2025, which would be before the date shown on the website, but we shall see. Of those three sound stages, only Sound Stage 4 and 5 make sense since they are larger than the specs the show had at TVC, while 9 is quite smaller.  Sound Stage 4 would be the best option overall for B&B since it has 18,819 sq ft., the largest individual sound stage at the lot - Stage 3 and Stage 8 share space, which combined makes the space 19,900 sq ft. --- Forgot to add, unless there was an issue with storing the sets, the changes at TVC should have had no issue with production on the show, resulting in fewer set use as there has been no movement in terms of construction that would impact either show (B&B/Y&R). Of the 2-3 times I've been at the studio, the most recent for Don Diamont's 40 years at CBS, it was the most dead I had ever seen the space, but that could be due to vacations, holidays, or the preparation of the B&B move.
    • I didn't post about it in the BtG thread as I still don't watch the show (an hour runtime is just too much for me right now with a new soap I can't just mostly skip through) but I can't imagine the ego of someone who is hired as a breakdown writer and decides to [!@#$%^&*] their own name all over the show. Classless beyond belief. Any writer who cares more about masturbatory behavior than quality of work should not be hired.
    • Yeah, it would've made things more tightly woven.
    • I like Chelsea and Madison. Two very pretty black women as a potential couple. But I really wish this show would've showcased two very handsome black men as a couple instead.
    • I didn't even think of roasters from GH

      Maybe this roast will take even more than two years
    • Irna wasn't involved with ATWT at the time of Neil's death, was she? I'm imagining a situation where right after his latest doctor's appointment, he's killed.
    • The Cruise of Deception was the first thing that came to mind when I mentioned that Brady might take after that side of the family 
    • We all knew that TT is busy so if she's off screen for a bit except for phone calls and/or visits.. then it is what is. Ashley was nicely used as support... which the writers should have been doing since day 1 so that viewers could understand why exactly she's on the show LOL Chelsea/Madison.... seems too good to be true... we shall see. Shanice as a PT... if it means more airtime.. I'm good.
