So, the Kay/bomb storyline, and Radisson's bad acting last week had me rolling my eyes. I cannot wait for this part of it to end. I tolerate it because it clearly seems short lived, and because I believe that bringing James Michael Gregary back was a gift for Jeanne Cooper. So, I'll deal. It is equal in tone to Bill Bell's original telling of this story, which leads me to tolerate it a little more. (Morey Amsterdam!?!).

Victor with the faceless lady is also campy...seems vaguely J.R. Ewing-esque to me. But, it is also damn intriguing.

Nick loving "two chicks" has destroyed the Morrow character for me, but it is also compelling classic soap. So, I'll deal. It's just that I loved Nick with Phyllis...all sexy and hot...but I also have always understood that Sharon-Nick's reunion is the ULTIMATE goal. I'll confess that all the scenes involving Nick-Sharon and Nick-Phyllis have been breathtaking.

Gloria being set free is NO surprise. This is EXACTLY what I always expected. I hate Glo/Jeff, and wish he'd leave the show (character...not so much the actor), as he is SO vile. But this is a continuation of pieces that Jack Smith and LML put into place. It is nothing "unique" fromt he current regime.

I agree here too. So, while I have some issues with the "dramatically heightened" storytelling, I find the show riveting. AND, let us remember, 12 months ago less "over the top" storytelling lost the show half a million viewers PERMANENTLY. So, if this "big" stuff keeps and regains viewers, I'll deal some more.

This is totally accurate. Morey played violin with Lil, Boohoo, and Katherine, right? And Marge kept purring about Sexy Rexy. Nah...it was all just as bad then :). I haven't missed this camp in the past two decades, but if that is what they choose to re-earth, well, they've stayed true to the concept.

For me, it is all manageable, because I believe the next arc will be [a] Jill/Kay dealing with not being related, and Billy/Mac coping with not being related. (That is just my speculation). And those are things I look forward to watching.

Love your post except I don't think we are going to see a full Nick/Sharon reunion for sometime yet!!! The show is so SOAPY right now, it is disgustingly GOOD!!! And the acting has been terrific!!
