I can't wait for Billy to come in contact with Chloe because I think they would sizzle together.

Here's to Billy and Lizzy smoking up the screens hopefully this week...And gah Eden, talk about a totally unsympathetic shrewish character/actress...Why are the directors not telling her to try something else?

If they had a couple of episodes of it and then paused for an episode or two, it'd be great. But when the storyline is bad and they keep showing it day after day, it just plain sucks. I don't care if Michael saves River or not and Lauren doesn't seem to have much storyline except propping Eden and River.

They should invest in other characters like that. With a good storyline.

This storyline has been going for two weeks since River showed up and one week with Eden. I have no doubt what you suggested is exactly how they will be playing this. This story won't be on day after day for months like the Newmans, Gloria or in the past the quad. They were ramping up these characters and storyline and were on for a number of consecutive days but they will probably go to two or three days a week now especially that the Abbotts are back.

I think it is too early to say if this story will be good or not. I want to see the Abbotts back, but it has been good for me and other Michael and Lauren fans to see them on screen on consecutive days for the first time in ages. Is it the best storyline I could think for them? No, but it is good having them on screen. Plenty of other characters have been on screen in mediocre storylines until they work them into a decent story. I mean how long have we had to watch this lousy Restless Style story going on. Let's not even talk about the reliquary story. I do care if Michael saves River but I care more about how Lauren and Michael will deal with these changes in their family. Much more than the countdown until the quad once again changes partners and we get another two years of bickering.

Have no fear, I have no doubt Tracey and Christian will be put on back burner again soon enough and we can get five days a week of the Newmans, the reversed quad, the revitalized Abbotts, and Gloria. Michael will be back to being lawyer to everyone and covering for Gloria twice a week and Lauren will be back to her once a week appearance and they will have their interrupted love scenes two or three times a year.

Hopefully, BM and EH will have great chemistry.

TOTAL word on that one. I'm SOOO all about those two hooking up.

Interesting---I was out on the net and read some comments from the girl playing Eden--she was directed to play everything how she did. That was what the show was looking for in those first scenes.

I hope Rauch gets rid of the actress who plays Eden soon. He so won't be impressed by her. For one, her acting sucks, and she's not pretty and blonde, so he won't excuse her bad acting. Either retool the character and recast with a decent actress, or write her out and have her go back to live at the ashram.

Oh and the actress that plays Eden is proof of why Karen Rea, the former casting director, was fired. Hopefully the new casting director will be much better, and I have much more faith in her.

Two characters are coming back.

As reported after their short exit, Ana and Tyra are returning on October 15th. Tyra is still a contract character.

Just goes to show that a better actress might have been able to pull it off because this one is so repulsive, I can't watch the show live anymore.

I certainly hope this week is better than last, did Hogan go on vacation?

Tuesday without River! I wonder how long it'll take.

  • Member
now you know how some of us old timers felt when they started to show nothing but the Abbotts and TEVN and less and less finally none of the Fosters and the Brooks!!!!

But that was a conscious decision by Bill Bell based on the loss of key members of the Fosters and Brooks families. When David Hasselhoff left as Snapper and Jaime Lyn Bauer left as Lori Brooks, Bell wasn't sure how well recasts would go over, and he didn't think the remaining Brooks or Fosters, with the exception of Jill, had the staying power to drive story. So he decided to "reinvent" the show by pushing the Williams family to the forefront and beefing up the stories of the Abbotts and Victor and Nikki. Jill already was tied to Jack and John, so she continued on in the Abbott storyline, as did Katherine through her connection to Jill.

Tuesday's show was good, no misery guts.

Although nepotism reigns supreme,

Cane is asking Colleen to test as Lily's replacement as the Fresh Face of Jabot.

On a bright note, it sounds to me like Chloe is actually in love with Billy. That should make things very interesting.

Good grief! Like the fans really want to see this inept girl in yet another storyline. <_<
