Well, it didn't start out much better. <_<

I couldn't have been the only one a little alarmed when Aaron handed a Stewart woman a steak knife. :o

Then, even though I knew what was in store....I actually had hope when Carly gave her little "I think we fizzled" speech and sailed out the door of Holden's hotel room, not really looking that upset about it. Then Pissy reared her ugly head, gave Holden two smooth lines of dialogue, and had Carly throw any progress she'd made out the window to get laid. If Pissy ever let a woman KEEP her brain on this show, I think I'd be amazed. :rant:

First off, what was with Carly's tone towards Lily. Your the bitch who betrayed your best friend. Then because Jack went off with Janet the other day, Carly wants to hook up with Holden.

The best part was when Carly told Holden that they really didn't have anything after all. Of course it was short lived it was still good and the truth.

Mike and Lily were good with the kids. It showed a woman can date a man willing to win over her kids.

Chris and Dani are a plain old bore to me and I hate how they are going with Alison wanting Chris again in the end.

And once again Alison has showed just how alike she is to her sister Emily by jumping head first into something she isn't ready for and doesn't know if she really wants it or not.

I keep hoping for some glimmer of excitement. All I find is gag-worthy moments, like Holden's long idiotic bellowing about how Mike's temporary stay is going to "ruin" his kids' lives? REALLY?? So boinking Jack's ex-wife is a-ok, because she's always going to be a part of the "family"??? Holden is a complete liar. He heard from Sage yesterday that Mike was planning to take the kids to the car race (or whatever it was). And all the yelling could have been avoided if he'd explained he wanted to take the kids to the engagement party. But instead, he uses excuses to vent. A-hole. And on top of it, you can see Lily mooning over him and fuzzy family memories. Ugh...it makes me sick.

I was a little tickled that Aaron mustered up the balls to humiliate Chris like that. All through Ali's rant, I kept thinking, gee, Ali, is it any wonder Aaron might be a little insecure when it comes to Chris? It's not like you nearly slept with Chris just a couple of months ago or anything. Or hesitated when Aaron asked you to marry him.

Apparently, Dani's inherited the Stewart skank-gene. I'm surprised she didn't take Chris out to the alley and f*ck him right there.

Oh yeah, me too. Lily and Holden need to be finished for awhile. Really and completely ended for at least a year. Mike and Lily are pretty good together and I wish the show would go in that direction.

Well, I guess today was better than yesterday. I flove Anthony Herrera, but I don't have a lot of hope for this story. "Make me a sandwich..."??? Bitch, please.

Waaaaayyyy to much lovey-dovey Brad/Katie and Jack/Janet bull today.

Nice Henry/Carly scenes. I think it's definitely time to make them officially friends, and dump Vienna back in Sweden. I found myself liking the Bonnie/Derek scenes too.

I can't take much more. I hate them both. If only they would make Katie a bitch again maybe I could feel something for her.

I'm glad Lucinda is getting some male attention. I just hope tis guy doesn't turn out to be crazy or a gay basher.

Actually I think it would be more interesting if he was a closet case who was after one of the gay boys. He seemed a little too into having them go "mushroom," hunting with him. Kind of interesting if the blond one went after hot daddy LL (you know, typical soap opera, all the hate and hissy fits he has is because he wants him for himself.)

Okay, I really havent been watching a lot of ATWT lately, and I am sure that this has been discussed, but the two actors who play the gay couple seem to have absolutely no chemistry and the taller one is a block of wood!

I'm watching for the first time in awhile... and have they just erased Hal Munson's memory from the canvas entirely? I heard Jack being referred to as "Dad" to Parker at least four times in this episode. I know Jack legally adopted him, but wow... it's like "Hal who?"

HAH! Ya got that right. Careful - the Nukers might hear you. :-)

    • Nope, it was not just you, I had the same issues. Most either disagreed with me, or just ignored my comments. But, I most definitely would have liked for them to take another route, even to add sheer variety in the storytelling. It is what it is, the story is a hit with the fans...
    • You may be a casual watcher, but you got SO much right.
    • I've been eagerly awaiting Kate's first episode under the new writers, and I wasn't disappointed. I started reminiscing about all of Kate's misdeeds when she said how good of a liar she was and how she saw right through Roman's lying. I really buy this matured, but still wise Kate in 2025, and the fact that you know under the right circumstances, the more ruthless side is always there, under the surface. Hopefully, with Roman about to confess, we get the full truth about just what the hell happened with Johnny the night EJ was shot, then all the major suspects will be eliminated, just for the writers to throw in that wrench that's waiting for it's time to shine. Everytime Brady thaws even a little bit towards Kristen I immediately get concerned. I was entertained by their fight, and it was smart to mention Kirsten having no friends, let alone positive female relationships except for Lani in regards to why Rachel is such a loser. As a viewer, do you think Stacy Haiduk as Kristen was at all thinking about her former friendships with Jennifer and Billie in that moment? I wonder if she's even aware that they were, or who Billie even is. Anyway, I do wish Kristen could have also thrown in Brady's face that he's literally the biggest slut in Salem. Rachel seeing and possibly hearing about him going from woman to woman would also negatively affect Rachel's negative ideals about women, and possibly her own self-hatred. I thought Doug's favourite class being English lit was a good through line from how impressed he was with grandpa Doug's poetry book to Julie. Hearing he dropped out because no one at home cared just made me yearn for more information about Charles LeClair as a father and person. Maybe it was this time that Robert LeClair was dying so Charles was distracted and it all fell apart after that? Alex with Kristen today is the most interesting I've seen him written. He was smarmy and cold and for a quick second looked like he was enjoying playing with Kristen clearly throwing herself at him, but when she dropped her facade he became merciful, but still unwilling to budge. He would have fit in well in the more complex 70s era as a cad with a heart underneath his bravado. However, and I can't stress this enough, I absolutely despise whenever he calls Philip, 'Phil.' It just itches my brain in all the wrong ways.
    • U.S. soaps don't use calendar years. Nor do they use their debut anniversary as season markers anymore, athough they may have done so at one time long long ago. Although GH first debuted in April, Y&R and B&B in March, and Days in November, their current seasons are considered to be starting each autumn. Edit insert to clarify: the soaps still each celebrate their debut anniversary date as an anniversary, but it's not the season end/start marker anymore. --- Soap seasons on the US broadcast networks and Peacock are currently considered to start in late August, in September, or in early October. (the autumn). Tamara Tunie said on her IG today that the current season of BTG ends at the end of August.  Then Season Two begins. https://www.instagram.com/p/DJkCcNQRxBR/ So basically, for any new soap starting from now on, Season One is a partial year that ends in the autumn, and then all following seasons go twelve months starting each autumn. Edit to add: You would think that Y&R and B&B would start their seasons on the exact same day each autumn, but due to lots of news events in the past few years, B&B has had more full preemptions than Y&R, which has thrown off their season start/end dates.  So as a result, Y&R and B&B sometimes debut their new seasons in different weeks each autumn.

    • This is what happens when you write for character over actor.
    • I assume Holly is Nicole's kid, right?  If so, the casting on the actress was spot on since she totally had some of Nicole's mannerisms/aura. Kristen is being shown as human again.. which we haven't seen from the character since Eileen's 1 year return back in the early 2010s. Kate is now running the Brady Pub?  
    • I think most people's knowledge of DNA tests comes from Maury. I dont think she nor most people would even think to consider genetic markers
    • Calendar year, at least going by when the Season Numbers have changed in the past several years on GH and on DAYS it's been calendar years. What their start dates are though haven't necessarily made inherent sense to me.  Hmm, interesting point. I'm used to being for underdogs, as well, but I am very invested in the Duprees.
