Heres the thing tho - Johnnys knows this secret is going to come out and thats going to tear him and shrewlu apart, so why not do it now? however at the same time they have eliminated his self destructive streak since he came, so i dont really buy it from him.

but maxie? yeah. she would go out and screw some guy to hurt spinelli to push him away thinking its for his own good.

thats why i love that little skank. lol.

Robin lost in the middle of suburbia is another bit of nonsense, but Kim is doing a good job with this silliness so she is keeping my attention.

Lucky and Elizabeth sudden reconnection is ridiculous. Lucky deserves to be banging hot Sam, not being Elizabeth's second choice.

Rebecca casually roams around the hospital and no one notices.

The whole thing makes me roll my eyes.

I liked the Carly/Edward scenes. I will go wash my mouth out with soap, now. :lol:

I'm so not buying the 'we need to hurt LuLu/Spin now, instead of later' nonsense with JoMax. They've wanted each other for awhile, now. It's just finally coming to surface. Hopefully, the tension will keep building. They have major chemistry.

i loved how johnny and maxie were like damn robin ur smart. take the baby into the snow to bring down her temp, then stash her ina tree during the blizard! lol.

then at the end maxie was all wait, no. the bitch has flipped her freakin lid and is crazy.

i fel bas for making fun of robin because of the storyline they are doing, but im sorry... i cant help it. and i have robin hate.

besides KMC is just not bringing it, ugh. i wish she would because this storyline would rock then. but at the same time maybe shes playing it well and true and i just dont like it.

I'd go with this one. When you hate a character is often difficult to judge the actor and story clearly. Kim is doing a good job with the PPD story. She is being careful not to go overboard with the wailing and crying a lot of soap actresses would ido n this story. Robin is getting more and more tightly wound and is withdrawing into herself as the depression envelopes her which makes sense since she has a type A personality. The PPD story started off really well, but of course, with Guza in charge it has turned into to farce with Robin lost in the suburbs, wandering through the woods, and stashing her daughter in a tree.

And what did we learn today, children?

Today we saw... an old man get pistol-whipped in a hospital chapel, an explosion, the ceiling caving in on Natalia Livingston, a man waving around stolen toxic balls, and... I think Lulu was in a scene with Sam after the explosion where she didn't mention Johnny's name.

And yes, I deliberately did not start a new thread for this week because I don't think GH ever deserves a new thread... ever again. Ever.

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • 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!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. 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. Morgan Fairchild, Barbara Rush. Developed by Rita Lakin.   
    • 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.

    • I decided this primetime soap deserved it's own thread as the Primetime soaps thread is very cluttered and why shouldn't NBC's Lorimar soap mot have a chance to shine? In doing a deeper dive into the second season ratings I was surprised to see that FR actually had an uptick in the ratings when NBC moved it to 9pm Tuesdays beginning March 82. I'd always assumed this move was a desperate one as NBC were running short of programming and had given up on the show,deciding to let the final episodes play out and be hammered by 3's Company  and CBS Movie. But the numbers paint a different story. In it's 10pm slot up against Hart to Hart, which regularly finished in the Top 20, FL premiered in 53rd place and placed in the 40's and 50's as the season continued. But come January 82 the numbers surged a little now moving into the 40's hitting #43 in Feb. Hart to Hart was #11 Then in March Bret Maverick was moved to 8pm with FR @9. First week 16th March FR #47 15.1/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Not great but #2 in it's timeslot March 23 FR #44 15.6/25 3's Company #4 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #33 So even with a stronger movie on CBS FR's numbers went up. March 30 FR #31 16.6/26 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #56 Best rating/position yet Tues April 6 pre empted Tues April 14 FR #36 16.0/26 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #11 CBS Movie #59 Maintaining previous week's numbers Tues April 21 FR #33 15.6/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Numbers down a little (reflecting general spring downturn) but best ranking of the season so far Tues April 28 FR #35 15.1/23 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #6 CBS Movie #42 Tues May 4 FR #27 15.2/24 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #4 CBS Movie #41 Season finale and highest position of the season. Looking at those numbers I wonder why NBC cancelled the show? They had very few hits and here was a show that was holding it's own and moving up in the rankings in a tougher timeslot. And being a serial, the storylines could continue to build the following season. And I'm sure the desirable W18-49 demo was good. Some might argue that CBS were shower weaker movies, but even so, soap viewers are pretty loyal. I guess Grant Tinker arrived at NBC and wanted a classier look but there was room for FR on the schedule. I mean, the following season Knight Rider,Powers of Matthew Star and the A Team arrived so there was still room for more populist fare. Flamingo could have stayed at 9pm-the replacement Gavilan bombed (surely FR would have done better} or moved back to 10pm. The following Jan NBC had a hit with A Team Tues 8pm. Had Flamingo followed it, it might have really taken off. As it was they tried Bare Essence, which flopped. Oh well,it was not to be...    
    • Always, in every way, Cass/Wally/Felicia foundational to my viewing. And, I think if we look at the aftermath of the disastrous 90 minute show that we find too many pockets of some kind of lost time at the show plus way too much of change-ups in exec & writing leadership and of course we also reach the first time it becomes notable that NBC wants to get rid of the show so they can put a new soap they own in the timeslot.
