Billy Miller's good.

Not good as David Tom.

But good.

David Tom might be the slightly better actor; but visually I much rather buy him for the child of fierceness personified, Jill Foster Abbott, and John Abbott. Billy Miller and Peter Bergman are as much brothers as are Greg Rikaart and CLB.

Therefore I'm thrilled by Billy Miller and will for once say that in this case he's better to look at than David Tom and therfore my Billy of choice. LOL!

Snoretoria and BoreMeToTears are still alive? Who cares!? :P

As for MTS: Even as a "reformed" Nikki/MTS (ONLY acting-wise though, still hate that b*tch) supporter, I find her off-screen and on-screen wardrobe very hookerish.

Still waiting for much more Nikki & Paul though - that's a romance I want to see. Skip the Winters & Baldwin dramas...

If one can believe the rumors, they may not have been investing much in Paul because they didn't know how long he'd be around. Having decided, I presume, that he will be around--they can then invest in his story more.

I LOVED the Jack and Gloria scenes today. Both of them are such compulsive liars, and it's nice to see Gloria so stressed and burnt out. LOL!

Eileen Davidson looked great today. She's very stunning when her hair is straightened out.

I also LOVED those Jill and Ashley scenes at Jabot. Lot's of bitchy tension. The dialogue was fierce.

The Katherine and Murphy scenes were sweet. I really like their dynamic. Murphy's world of going to be tuned upside down when he learns that it was Marge who died.

That ring Katherine pawned is a story onto itself. We know Katherine left it to Nikki in her will, and Nikki reported it stolen and there's an investigation opened on it. I wonder where this is going to lead.

The Heather and Adam scenes were really good too.

Very good episode overall, and tomorrow looks great as well. Can't wait to see Ashley berate Gloria in prison. LOL!

The same person that shook up other actresses to start acting again probably took a shot at Vail and look at the results... ;)

Also, I know this was said many times, but Vanessa Marano is just way better than Sanders. Can you image what we would have to endure if Sanders continued playing the role during the recent scenes?

Are they planning on killing Gloria? In today's US episode there was 4 or 5 characters that said something to the effect of killing her. Isn't JC's contract up this spring? I can't imagine them letting her get away.

I just don't know what the hell they can do with Gloria anymore. To me she's become irredeemable and absolutely unsympathetic. I'd LOVE a "Who Killed Gloria?" storyline...

It sure seems that's where this is headed.

I also thought this.

I'm thinking more of a "who SHOT Gloria" storyline. Not only might we get a primo whodunit (I'm worried though...Scott Hamner is still there...), but it could (if it sufficiently devastates Gloria's life) be the start of a humility-and-redemption storyline for her.

I only hope Jeff is the perpetrator, and leaves our blessed Genoa City FOREVER, preferably in the manner akin to his brother.

Jeff and Gloria should both be gone. She gets killed, Jeff kills her and gets sent to prison.

Honestly I wouldn't care if they wrote out Kevin/Jana too... they are pointless. Then the project of Michael Baldwin's extened family can be put to rest....Kevin is Glo's little lapdog anyway. Once she is gone what is left for him? If we do get a Glo murder mystery how much do we want to bet Jack gets accused and possibly framed for it?

But light years ahead of Ryan Brown and Scott Seymour.

I actually didn't mind Ryan Brown. He just didn't strike a chord with many viewers because he came in so soon after David Tom.

Scott Seymour, on the other hand... *shudder*

Also, I know this was said many times, but Vanessa Marano is just way better than Sanders. Can you image what we would have to endure if Sanders continued playing the role during the recent scenes?

Absolutely.

I was really shocked Adam would be so cold to Heather and threaten her job. Vail just keeps getting better and better. She just can't go.

From spoilers i read today it looks like Kay

gets her memory back and no one believes she's Katherine. Jill has her arrested and Kay and Gloria end up in jail together! WOW! And this is a guess not a spoiler, but I think Kay and Jill will have a blood test and the blood test might come out that they aren't related!

Once again, I have to talk about how well produced this show is again. The intense old-school scores are great, and some of the newer scores are great and in the classical tradition.

Also, the transitions between scenes is effortless. The production values are just top notch. The directing is also really good and has gotten much tighter since Rauch arrived. Also, little things like wardrobe, hair, and make-up have all vastly improved. It's all very noticeable for a year and even 6 months ago. Latham and Griffith tried to make this show look like an ABC soap (cheap-looking as hell), not the lush and advanced aesthetic masterpiece it's supposed to look like and looks like right now. This show looks BEAUTIFUL on HDTV!
