I understand not posting spoilers here for those who want to watch it on Soapnet, but I don't get Soapnet. Is it permissible for someone to post what happened the last ten minutes on Spoiler Island? If so, please do so. If not, are my only options waiting to read about it after Soapnet airs it?

Ok, DAMN at Susan Haskell's body! :o:wub: Thorsten Kaye is a VERY lucky man!

That said, those scenes were absolutely disgusting. And the fact that they thought slapping a little PSA scene at the end would make it better was insulting.

I miss Tess :( Bess is annoying me for some reason.

And poor Starr and Marcie :(

:rolleyes: Exactly! People talk about the rape story being ruined, but what about Malone's 1995 DID story where, while insanely entertaining and even campy, he also finally put a realistic level and explanation to Vicki's DID. Tess getting her baby delivered by Nicki talking to her about being in Heaven is just... I dunno. Too much for me :P

Just watched Friday's. Oh I forgot one more complaint about yesterday's show--John's "hanging". No prison holding cell has benches you can kick off first of all, and they rarely even give you one small sheet at night--but you're kinda crazy to HANG yourself and just hope someone notices within 30 seconds or so so you can hope to survive it, let alone have the strength to run away...

ANyway--for today. Man. This show has just become SO weird. I didn't knwo whether to enjoy today's show with glee or justr shake my head at nearly everything. Just some randoms--why did we have John in some mysterious storage room acting liek he was going to war? He was acting kookier than Brody on the mountain. Todd sure doesn't even TRY does he? I mean he just has sex with Marty, after saying how if she gets upset by it after he'll be there for her, etc, and he can't even ACT like he enjoyed it. And then in the hospital that scene with Marcie had some of the most bizarre acting choices I've ever seen from Trevor SJ (I admit I kinda loved it). Bla bla the secret room, etc

Now onto Bess. So unlike most DID cases, and even her own moms, I assume ANY and EVERY alter Jess has will rhyme with that name? OK I already find it odd enough that the wine and glass Nicki Smith was using is still there when her image fades away, but where the HELL did Bess get those glasses from? I *loved* Jean in the 1995 DID story. But she didn't act like this--she didn't tell us EVERY other sentence that she was there to clean things up and fix things calmly--it was OBVIOUS, you don't have to tell us over and over, we get the concept of the "calm rational" alter. And why did the actress deliver every line like she was a cyborg in a bad 1970s sci fi film??

    • Leslie is an extreme liar and manipulator. I'm not sure what her point was in trying to convince Nicole she wasn't trying to hurt her. As much as Eva did help orchestrate the entire plot I feel like there was too much piling on. Eva never said she wanted to be a Dupree so Anita was extremely out of line for that comment.  
    • Thanks!

       That's positive and something to look forward to for sure, because you're right, 1996 so far isn't nearly as good as 1995. Ohh - what is Lonatrat?  Sadly you're probably right. I did feel like David was rarely seen once Marcus came on. That would have been an interesting spin, having Frank and Tina be teenage lovers and Dahlia really being his daughter. I'm getting the sense that Tina won't be seen too much anymore, as she just left Dahlia with Frank/Eleni as she's heading to jail for a while. I like the Tina actress too!  Her voice sounds a bit like Rosie Perez to me, which I love. I tried to find her online, but coming up empty. This was the only thing I could find about Tina Crede - a character snapshot video with clips and stills of her (randomly starting just before the 1:00 mark):

      That's wild that the David actor is nearly 40 here! Definitely surprises me.
    • 5-6   Meh. It already looks like a scattershot week.    5-5 was actually a good episode. Damian and Lily. Phyllis finally going on the warpath that I knew she could get on with Billy and Sally. Nate started to question Audra and Victor's alliance. And I was not even bugged by Kyle and Claire.   But then there's Cole's off-screen story. Kyle and Claire going back to being whiny. And them even wanting Adam's penthouse just sounded like trying to keep the set around. And Diane shouldn't even give a flying frak about Billy's opinion. And Tessa, Daniel, and the guitars...yeeeah no.   But hey...JM looked good in that short. And those pants.  I agree. One of Y&R's good points with fans has always been that you do at least see the vets. And IN stories. 
    • One of the things that I found unnecessary and a bit disturbing about Ambitions was that in almost every episode someone was holding or shooting a gun.  Jamey and Ron seem to have the same fetish.
    • I had thought that there was a Tommy Biddles on there, but then I realized I was thinking of Dr. Biddles on Santa Barbara. Never mind!

    • I have watched the scene where Vanessa reads the letter and it's lovely, but I'm really glad now that I never got around to watching the funeral. Henry ADORED Nola! He treated her like a daughter and Stacy like a granddaughter. That's why Vanessa couldn't stand her. He was crazy about all the Reardons. He spent a lot of time at the boarding house. He and Bea--they never explicitly said it was romantic, but they certainly were loving friends. This sounds worse than Bert's funeral. I really did not think that was possible.
    • It always bothered me from the start that Nicole just took Mona's suggestion and never checked references.  A real psychiatrist would have done more before hiring someone. ** I like that Kat's reporter/investigative type instincts caused her to be suspicious of Eva from the start, and to try to spy on Eva and catch her as weeks went by. However, I think that Kat's so focused on what Eva did wrong -- that she won't see that Leslie is the master manipulator, making some things appear different than they actually are. I hope that Shanice's natural snoopy nature will get her to figure out what actually happened to Laura, and who really caused all the problems. *** edit to add: The show never specified what Mona's job was for Nicole.  Home manager?  Office manager?  Head personal assistant?  I'm sure there would have been a title?    Mona asserted today her upset with Eva and with Leslie.  That they used her and ruined her reputation.  I just wish I knew what Mona's job was. If Mona was an official manager, then it would have made sense for Nicole to trust the recommendation, if Nicole thought Mona had done a proper hiring procedure.  But if Mona is just an informal helper, then why wouldn't Nicole order a background check?
    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE.
