OMFG!

This Bianca/Reese/Baby/Zach/Kendull/Greenlee storyline is amazing. I loved how they toild Green the entire story. And Zach offered? I didnt see that one coming, i thought Bianca had asked him. I LOVED that greens realized he was the father. Those were the scenes of thje day IMHO. I cant wait for Reese to come and eventually kendull to wake up.

the rest of the show was good. Jacob Young sold the jr/babe scenes. The Natalia/Frankie/Angie scenes were great as well.

:rolleyes: I am NOT a Babe fan but c'mon. Don't you feel silly posting this? We all know you hate Babe--why would you think you'd find her death scenes moving?? Did you? *so confused*

I actually, despite her character, found them pretty good and sad.

I thought today was a good day--the script was the best it's been in a while (by script I mean dialogue)--who did it? I still STILL wonder why we haven't had a mention of Stuart, Jack, etc but...

I'm no fan of Babe by any stretch -- and I hated the "You made me a better man" dialogue from JR because, really, when would that have been? After Babe slept with Jamie? Passed off Bianca's baby as his in order to keep living the Chandler lifestyle? Ran off with Jamie and said baby? -- but that goodbye in the chapel had me welling up. Jacob Young is selling this material and that is really unexpected because I never saw this from him when he was on B&B or GH.

Also, when JR carried Babe through the hospital corridor, the music they had playing me reminded me of classic 80s soap music. It was almost Santa Barbaraesque.

I don't know what to make yet about the Binks/Zach baby thing yet. I can't see Kendall objecting to it if she had been asked so I don't understand why they had to make it like this big secret where Bianca couldn't possibly tell her because Kendall hates surprises. :huh:

I can't believe I'm going to say this but --

I like Greenlee in the context of the Kanes and Zach and Bianca and Kendall. For a moment there, I thought she was going to refuse to keep Zinks's baby secret! She has that naughty-little-girl face on. Pulling her out of the Ryan-Aidan toxisphere is doing wonders for her character. Now all we need is for some Jake-Greenlee interaction...

Frankie *sigh* you are so purty.

Love Adam & Erica.

Who is the actor playing Joe Martin again? He has such an authoritative presence.

SO MUCH WORD!

For the first time since right after leo died i saw the REAL greenlee. When she figured out the trusth and just flat out said your the father? and didnt let them try and talk her into thinking otherwise. It just worked. Greenlee was who Greenlee should be. And then earlier in the week her scenes with Jake and Joe were great.

They really need to pull from rylee/ailee and thorw her between jake and amanda - because jake and harley just dont work - and keep her mixed up with kendull, zach, binx, etc.

and becca budig has been beyond fab this week.

By far the best script yet! Kate Hall wrote those Babe/JR scenes beautifully.

I was tearing up like no other during the JR/Babe scenes. I am not a fan of AB, but she sold it. Props to the makeup team too - her pale face was spot on. I can only imagine the buckets of tears coming out my eyes if that were Alexa in those scenes. But kudos - one of the saddest/best death scenes in history.

I'm really going to enjoy the Jesse/Angie/Natalia storyline.

I guess its bc we have different head writers and their take on characters is different.... but it is very strange and jarring to me that Zach isn't crazed about Kendall like he was during her first coma storyline. Its such a stark difference that it feels odd to me. I'm expecting him to be at her bedside and demanding to stay with her through thick and thin. I understand his new baby has been born and he's trying to take care of Bianca, but he doesn't even seem that concerned. Sure, he checked in on her when Jake was performing surgery (which btw, if I had to walk in on my boyfriend having brain surgery during a tornado with the lights out - I'd be bawling my eyes out) --- but I don't know - its weird.

Definitely love that Greenlee has been thrown into the Bianca stuff though. Glad we're not getting more Ryan/Aiden/Greenlee aftermath drama.

Also, love that David Hayward is back!!! :)

Babe's death has been well done so far, but I know I'm going to get seriously annoyed by the Babe = Love BS that every character on this show will now be forced to spout for the next four weeks. I particularly dread what TPTB will make Bianca say.

And much as I appreciated Bobbie Eakes' acting yesterday, I am ready to mute all the "Whhhhhhhy, Gawd? Whhhhhhy did you take mah Baby Doll? Babe was the kindest, most saintliest girl that ever did live!" dialogue she will doubtless be delivering.

    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE. 
    • Also, someone knocked over the head (usually in the D Mansion) and imprisoned in the secret tunnel room or whatever it was. I swear that must have happened at least a dozen times the last few years, and each time it drove me crazy! 
    • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! And here I am rewatching and...

    • 5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.
    • The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.
    • So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???    
    • Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)
    • Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.
