I am so touched by the stories of these vets living with disabilities.

I am equally touched by this glimpse of Agnes Nixon's All My Children. Never a PSA, always a relatable slice of life.

A kid I went to college with appeared on the ep where Zarf/Zoe attended a support group for transgendered people. I think that was the last time we saw something quite like this.

I thought that today's show was pretty good.

I though that the scenes with the real life Iraq war veterans were very touching. :)

Jake and Taylor watching the telenovela: :lol: I thought that Jake's comments about the soap were funny. IMO, he was entertaining in those scenes.

I also liked the scenes with David and JR and JR and Krystal.

Erica: Reese is actually Bianca's fiance.

Adam (with frozen smile): Fascinating!

LMFAO! Looks like somebody is a Star Trek fan. "Fascinating" was Spock's response to anything he found unusual. And, trust me it works in real life social situations too. I can't tell you how many times I've used it. It's completely noncommittal and the listener interprets it anyway they want.

Judging from the way Erica treated Randi, Pratt has decided to turn Fusion into "Mode" and Erica into Wilhemina Slater. I guess this makes Amanda "Betty" and Randi "Marc."

I still love Bianca and Reese. It was great to see Reese acting like a professional.

The scene at the VA hospital was so real and so moving. I'm torn between being grateful that a soap could still do this and wondering if such...depth is wasted on the genre. I really, truly hope that everyone involved writes a story worthy of the incredible REAL people we saw today. Pardon my French but don't [!@#$%^&*] this up Frons. And to the vets on and off this show...THANK YOU.

    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.

    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  Also, did Reva ever sleep with Phillip? They always had some "closeness" thing, but I don't know if they ever actually did the deed. If they did, then Reva's the clear winner, with TWO families covered, lol!  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.  
    • Jenn was a huge part of the success of Days back in the day, and that contribution shouldn't be dismissed.  With that said, I do think her and Jack's time on the show should remain as occasional visits/drop ins. When Missy returns to play Jenn, Jenn is back to being Jenn.   Jenn in her glory days was head strong, fiesty, and was a live wire.... and her scenes with Jack on Friday was classic Jenn with Jack being the voice of reason.   It was the foundation of their relationship back in the day.
