I think TPTB really blew this sweeps/non-sweeps with the special effects stuff (toxic gass releases, fires, helicopter rescues - they're basically ripping off their own prior sweeps periods).

If you get past all of that and look just at the human interaction, this 'sweeps/non-sweeps' was all about human interaction and reconciliations of all sorts.

My fondest wish is that Ethan will be Luke's 'comeuppance'. Ethan should be that side of Luke that he's come to accept, but should actually despise about himself. Ethan may end up doing to Luke what Luke has done to so many others, most especially the people who've loved him. (I say that as someone who loves Luke)

Luke reconciles with his history (again)?

Robin and Emma?

Tracy with Edward?

Carly with Edward (twice now)?

Liz and Lucky?

I wrote about this in detail in my blog

Minus the crappy and pricey special effects, some pretty interesting stuff, with long term consequences, took place.

Johnny and Maxie can't end well (they're betraying Lulu, Guza's #1 heroine), but I want this to end Spinelli and Maxie. All she does now is talk about how perfect he is. They have no friendship, no relationship. She exists to reinforce all his flaws.

I don't understand why they won't let Spinelli mature or grow in any shape or form. Muscle wise, speech wise, confidence wise...nothing at all. He's still the same guy. He's smart and cute in the sorta endearing way but he's not your typical soaphunk and the writers give him way too many flaws that make any relationship sorta unrealistic to me.

November 17th Review

The Sweeps was a bit too much with the effects (as much) but storywise it was pretty good.With Trevor jumping off a balcony and Guza calls that a death though was crap and Sam acting as though she can do whatever she wants and no one has objections,which seems to be the case.Jason just lets her run into a burning building and shoot him in the arm (which was dumb).Seriously Sam should just go somewhere which only exists in her own mind.How long did it take for Jason and Sam to hear Spinelli.BTW Not bad Explosion at the end.

Carly and Jax.. how adorable were they in the elevator? i loved that the show ended that way today too.

I can't stand what they're doing to Kate's character.. snooping around Sonny's, plotting revenge, not having her tell him about Claudia being a part of Michael's shooting. The writing's on the wall for Ms. Howard =(

Sadly, it seems so. I'll miss Kate(if she does go) because Megan Ward is a terrific actress. She doesn't cower is scenes with Benard like other actresses tended to do and she can be a force when needed.

I can't really blame Kate for not revealing Claudia's secret because I read an interview that Sarah Brown gave where she basically said that as long as she's on the show, she doesn't want that revealed to Sonny. She didn't like that the writers went there with Claudia in the first place.

    • In the current environment, while it's small, there is a crumb of good news: Apparently, San Antonio voted for a DEMOCRATIC mayor, Gina Ortiz, beating the "right-hand man" of Gov. Greg Abbott, former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5337199-gina-ortiz-jones-wins-san-antonio/
    • Love this! You are both adorable. Wow
    • I have not gone back to watch much of 1987, but from what I've seen lately, it doesn't feel like the writers or producers had any sort of plan. The show feels as if it's constantly in flux.  I will give it credit for this. It's watchable for the most part minus Lisa/Jamie which I find nearly unwatchable now.   I don't find Cheryl mousy. I think she has a lot of quiet strength, but she was saddled with the Scott romance which the writers did not invest in. She had a good friendship with Julie (also criminally underused), and her interactions with Ada were enjoyable as well. I also like Layman, but Spencer was extremely talented and when Cass returns, Schnetzer and Spencer have some wonderful scenes. Spencer also fits in with Alexander, Hogan, and Marie.  I'd forgotten just how much I missed seeing Wallingford. IT was so good to see him again. Even when they didn't have a major plot, Felicia/Cass/Wallingford/Mitch always brings a smile to my face.  
    •   Dani’s cute ass party planner. He gave me some tea but I was so drunk I don’t remember it.
    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside. 
    • Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.
