why did Ron have to bring back the 2 completely useless characters of Mo and Noelle back? Ugh and it looks like they are here to stay. I hate how all of Paris has been transported to Llanview. Didnt like that storyline and dont like how that stuff has lingered on

I, for one, am glad that Moe and Noelle have come to Llanview to stay. The Paris, TX story was my all-time favorite on OLTL, and to bring them back as supporting characters like Roxy and Carlotta is a great idea.

The Jessica scenes were a little hokey for my tastes but I loved Brody's reactions as he witnessed all three transformations. These two are going to be one hot couple. I don't like the psychiatrist, though, he's very flat compared to Dr. Joplin.

Shane's a little brat. I hope they capitalize on that and have him become devious (as it's been rumored). Rex and Gigi are a great couple, though. I love how they dress Gigi.

The scenes where Starr held the baby was classic soap. I can't wait for this story to unfold.

ALSO... does anyone else think that Janet may have killed Dr. Joplin?

Yesterday was great...

Vicki/Starr- I just love them. Starr is so completely destroyed by losing her baby and learning the truth about her father. I really felt for Starr- I think I would feel the same way if I were Starr. What Todd did is unforgiveable. I loved Starr/Vicki convo about Todd and the attic. I remember when Todd cared about his kids!! I really felt for Starr when she saw Todd in cuffs. Poor girl- she is so lost.

Blair/John/Marty- STFU Marty. Blair was trying to be nice and sympathize with you and you accuse her of cheating on Todd. I so wanted Blair to bitch slap Marty. She was so out of line. I am really starting to hate her. Between not coming down for thanksgivng with Cole and attcking Blair for no reason- I am just done. I get that she is mad and has been hurt, but the world doesn't revole around Marty!!!

Bess/Jess/Tess/Brody- I loved his reaction to meeting all the alters. I mean that is some crazy sh*t!!! I loved how he didn't judge her or freak out. I kinda like Brody and Jess together!! Someone listen to Tess- that is not her baby!!!

Shane is really getting on my nerves. Rex has bent over backwords for the kid and he still treats him like crap. I really don't get all the Brody love- newsflash he lied to you and so did your mom!!!

Roxy is always a treat!!!

Todd trying to run away like a coward- typical Todd!!!

I love Nora!!!!

Well it was a good 3 weeks!

Wake me when Friday's episode is OVAH!

Marty is now saddled with McBore.

This return of the two hillbillies from the diner in Texas is dumb and pointless., Why not put that money somewhere else... And the woman is an awful actress.

Illegal aliens, ect and these two lame SANTI's or whatever they are. Send them away.

Addie saying "We are awesome" was very funny though. :)

This show doesn't no s+it about how to sustain.

Cannot wait for Tea's return.

Shoot. I spoke way too soon.

#1) Susan Haskell is damn amazing.

#2)The look Dorian gave her made me LAUGH OUT LOUD. Its around 12 minutes in, Marty starts to break down and is crying and Dorian makes the most comical look I have ever seen. LOLLLLLL

Then Blair drags her out-

It was excellent!!!

I'll shut up now.

Don't tell them that! LOL. Joplin apparently committed suicide.

It's official. I hate Marty. Before I was neutral. Just meh. No slam against SH, but the character positively reeks. I have no sympathy for her and want her quickly in another Van of Doom to be sent careening off a ledge.

John's move today was low...very low. It flipped the script on Todd and John in my eyes--not that I think Todd is great and John evil, but I'm beginning to sympathize with Todd despite his actions while I think John's brand of vigilante justice is dubious and scummy. I don't imagine Marty and John will end up back together and I'm actually pulling for Todd and Marty to somehow overcome everything and be together in one hell of a mess.

Some of you are odd--you don't like Moe and Noelle? They were/are great and fill unique roles that need to be filled in Llanview. They know Shane, Gigi, Dorian, Marcie, Charlie, and Viki--they'll blend into a lot of storylines and provide a conscious or a sounding board when needed.

The Vega/Vanessa stuff is unbearable but then, other than Lola, none of them have any personality. I was beginning to warm up to Talia before the Mendorra storyline but now she's lame. With Moe and Noelle around, let's rid the canvas of the Vegas (and I include Carlotta who I've always liked but her standing as the sounding board/conscious was deconstructed years ago with the Santi storyline).

Jess and Brody will be great. I still believe we're witnessing what will become the backbone of the show with Brody/Jess/Rex/Gigi. They can swap partners, they will be friends, enemies, friends again, have happy endings and bad endings. I saw this because we know Gigi/Brody can work and I think John-Paul is a solid enough actor to bring out some of the sparkle Bree has shown in fleeting moments. Perhaps it's wishful thinking but with Natalie being backburnered (and rightfully so--we've been hit over the head with too many Natalie storylines the past few years), I think they have the new young backbone they've needed to compliment the veteran backbone.

    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna?

    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982.

    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.

      Newsom is a craven opportunist, but his comments today were exactly how better people need to handle Trump.
