Does anyone else want Kevin and Amber to screw? I kinda like them together. LOL!

I liked the Traci and Brad falshback used today, they've been doing that a lot lately - using old flashbacks. I like it.

And Y&R has the most realistic and beautiful outdoor sets (used in tomorrow's US episode a bit)...

Oh yeah, seeing Traci today was a surprise. She adds a certain calmness to the show and the Abbott family. I wish she had a more permanent role.

Billy Miller -- wow. I just watched his scenes with Eric Braeden. He has been the addition of 2008 to the cast and has made Billy Abbott such a multi-faceted character. I wish they'd give him more scenes with Greg Rikaart and Michael Grazadei.

Also: Ted Shackleford and Judith Chapman are just having a ball, aren't they?

Wonder if EB asked about having scenes with Miller and Chapman.

I am a huge Nikki/MTS fan. I hate to see her leave.

OLTL and Y&R have been incredibly boring this week.

I am also disappointed in the girl playing Eden.

She is/was a very adept comic actress on Lisa Kudrow's AWESOME HBO show The Comeback as well as on Gilmore Girls-

On Y&R she is no better than the chick she replaced, in fact, dare I say, slightly worse....

It was nice seeing Tracey yesterday. But the rest is a bore.

I want more Katherine/Murphy/Esther.

I love Esther as a well heeled, well off woman. It is so much fun to watch.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!

Alright. That is it. That. Is. It.

I want Nick dead. I want him to die slowly. Painfully. I'm not all that protective of the Phyllis character, but I'm so damn tired of Nick's pompous, self-righteous, nausea-inducing personality. How DARE he pin the blame on Noah and Eden's disappearance on Phyllis and Michael! As if he was model father to that child. Perhaps if he decided which woman he wanted in his life, he would be able to pay more attention to him. Perhaps if he could see how his actions are torpedo-ing his marraige NOT JUST his wife's manipulation, than maybe it could be salvaged. How any woman with half a brain would find such a horrible person attractive is truly beyond me. Not to mention that horrid Joshua Morrow couldn't act his way out of a burlap sack. He can only do angry and irritated well. In fact, he HAS NO OTHER EMOTION. RAH!

I hope Phyllis goes nuts and holds his un-dropped testicles in a Vulcan Death Grip.

:Breathes:

I'm better now. Sorry for that.

I don't think Y&R could lose MTS and still stay at number one. Especially if another soap picked her up.

As far as I'm concerned Brad is getting everything he deserves. The Newman's really don't owe him anything. He cheated on Victoria with that skank hoe Sharinit and then went on to steal information to use at Jabot. That man will screw over anyone if it suits him.

    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
