I thought Lynsy Dufour did a great job with her first script.

I know some have speculated that Dr. Sinclair would be Jake's ex-wife Carolyn, but I think she's going to wind up being related to Annie instead. I'm glad the writers have us guessing where this is going; it's more fun when you don't know what's going to happen next.

Opal reading the tea leaves made me laugh out loud. Death & destruction to Rylee can't come soon enough for me!

I loved the Bianca/Reese/Simon/Zach scenes. It was dumb of Bianca to not want to discuss past romantic relationships with Reese, but still Reese omitted details about her relationship with her parents. Imo, she has kept too many secrets for Bianca to fully trust her. I felt sorry for Simon since he was dumped with no explanation and it makes sense to me that his story would fuel Bianca's distrust of Reese. Maybe it's just me, but Zach holding Gabrielle at the end seemed like foreshadowing that he'll seek custody at some point.

I agree. A lot of people have said that because Bianca (and Zach) kept Gabrielle a secret from Kendall, Bianca is a hypocrite for distrusting Reese. I won't deny the wrongness of what Bianca did but that doesn't mean she should trust Reese. Reese's behavior with Zach is a genuine cause for concern and her lying is almost pathological. She seems willing to lie or withhold anything that would might make her less than perfect in Bianca's eyes. She's withheld crucial information that any serious couple should know about each other. The more this storylne goes on the more I distrust Reese, the more unsympathetic I find her and the less I understand who she is and what motivates her.

Not to mention who idiotic Ryan is whenever Greenlee warns him of an omen regarding their reuniting. First, he dismissed her warning him when she said that the tornado was proof they shouldn't together -- and as trees are falling and lighting is flashing and the wind is ripping through the gazebo, the ass is all like, "NO! IT'S THE HEAVENS REJOICING BECAUSE WE FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT!"

Huh?

And then the whole entire town proceeds to be destroyed.

Now, she's like "I have nightmares of seeing myself in my wedding dressed drowned in a bathtub!" and he's all "Oh, pishaw!"

What is his problem? He always seems to ignore her (he did this before when Greenlee warned him about Jonathan), and then when he does, a crapload of problems happen. Why does he want Greenlee so much if he holds absolutely no stock in what she says?

I loved the Bianca/Simon/Reece stuff too.

This Oak Haven stuff is the nuttiest depiction of a loonie bin I have EVER seen on AMC. I keep on thinking I'm watching Passions and not just cuz of the Doc. I do like the mystery elemenet, I just want them to beef up SOME of the realism. Aiden is ALWAYS outside Annie's room, they question him, after he had to be in lock down, and then they're happy just letting him remain grabbing air IN THE HALLS? The doctor is the crappest doctor of all time. SHe always comes in makes some big statement and then leaves straight away--often leavign a patient in the halls, or not locked in, etc. I could go on and on

I know. Which leads me to think, and this is just my own "could possibly be the deal behind the scenes," Bianca was made a lesbian kind of in a way to thwart off any attempts to make Erica a grandmother. Kendall was long gone back when Binks came out in 2000 and they were far from mother and daughter.

But then Culliton reintroduces Kendall. McTavish comes along, rapes and impregnates Bianca, inseminates Kendall, and voila! Erica's a grandmother two times over.

So much for that.

    • I don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.
    • Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.    
    • You've been seeing him all along. You just didn't know it was him, I guess.

    • Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.
    • Melissa Ordway announced she was moved to recurring back in November but is still credited with the contract cast members.
    • I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.  
    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows. 
    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
    • So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
