LOL LOL LOL

Well, that is a purpose!

But, seriously, the "Glow by Jabot" JT (or at least, that era) was a lot of fun. He was a snarky bastard, and no one else in his set was quite as direct or quite as sexual. He was a bad boy. Then, watching Lyndsy Fonseca melt him -- where the young innocent was more mature -- and melted his jaded heart and showed him a path to relationships that was not sexual -- well, that was awesome to see. I'll admit it...I was a total sucker for the theme song ("When You Say Nothing At All")...for him carrying her out of the ashes of Gina's. Those grand moments cemented him in my mind forever.

Sadly, after he was mellowed by Colleen, that has started Thad's long nightmare of being a "good boyfriend"...truly, Paul Williams 2.0...righteous and therefore boring.

I can't help but believe, though, that if his relationship with Victoria and the Newmans went bad...he might return to snarky bastard. And THAT would be fun.

And, in the end, he is one of the best built men in daytime. And that, it seems to me, is reason enough for him to persist. Yes, I'm shallow that way.

Luckinbill has an amazing body. He's also an extremely good looking guy. But more importantly, Luckinbill has grown into a nice, capable actor. JT should have never been so softened by Colleen and Mackenzie. That's why I miss Brittany. Woodland and Luckinbill had great chemistry. She was a troublemaker and JT needs to be the bad boy. Loved him calling her, "Princess". I'd love for him to become the next beefcase showcase like Don Diamont was for years but if MAB has no plans for JT(or his body), he needs to go.

I think Tammin has done great this week she has improved alot in my eyes. I think she is a very talented actress. Her accent is OK she does a good American accent considering she is Australian it does sometimes leak out but its not that noticeable.

Victor has a German accent, Cane is supposed to be Australian yet he sounds half American to me. Victor is always mumbling in that quiet voice of his i cant understand a word he is saying. To me he is a crap actor.

Leading men Material is Jack, Brad, Nick. Anyone but Victor who is plain awful and bores me to tears.

As for JT i have always loved him body, face and all he has the whole package just gorgeous! :wub: but his face is just a bit too skinny.

SHICK fans have been demanding a new SHICK sex scene...after watching "that" .... someone needs to teach SC how to do a "love" scene..or an "adultery" scene....he never touched her below the neck and she never allowed her body to touch his body.... and who wears a black bra and panties that look like that under flannel PJ's????

SHICK fans need to ask for a refund!!!! that was a joke.... a real bad joke!!!! JM could have been "performing" with an inflatable doll "it" would have looked my life like!!!

hope it was worth it, cause it don't think you will be seeing something that bad again for a long long time!!!!

    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
    • @Maxim Great to see your mini-reviews again. There are a number of clips on Youtube of Janice's slow mental breakdown, especially as we go into January 1980. Christine Jones is just superb. She played the hell out of that role. Something which isn't referenced as much later on is how Mitch pushed Janice's doubts and mental instability for his own ends...until suddenly he didn't want to anymore (I guess he caught on with the audience and the show became wary). I don't want to post a bunch of clips, but this one has a very good confrontation between Rachel and Janice.

      This has a good scene around 7 minutes in where you can see Janice struggling internally with her need to identify herself so much by the men around her, all of which helps lead to her crackup.
