Well whatever she has, keep it away from the rest of the cast. I can hardly believe that this girl has another soap under her belt, please tell me, has she improved, stabilized, or gotten worse since DOOL? I really can't take those weird ass faces she makes. It's like there's a bug on her nose and she's trying to catch it with her lips.

I'm pretty sure both Zack and Fish's "friend" from the frat (the lab guy--that actor has also been on three eps of Dollhouse now) are red herrings. I was hopign they'd bring back Powell instead--I always had a crush on him (and hated that they made him a rapist again...)

OK I complaiend about the Stacey Gigi story, everyone has complained about it but I don't get it--do they really think any of us find this story compelling to watch? We know the outcome it's just dragged. if they inverted it it actually could be clever--have Gigi and Rex scheme to make Stacey's plan backfire--that at LEAST would make the story different form the soap cliche and mor einteresting to watch. I really am disappointe din Carlivati on this.

And Brody has chemistry with EVERYONE, male and female, not just the ladies :P

I really like Rex and Gigi but I agree. Rex and Gigi pulling the double cross would be a very clever storyline. While I still think it may happen when Rex catches a clue I am disappointed RC would drag this out so much and dumb down Gigi, Rex, Roxy, and everyone for this Stacy character. The Leukemia storyline was a promising storyline without Stacy and then it turned into a joke with Stacy's character. IMO it is a slap in the face to many who are dealing with Cancer. I don't blame any of the actors, this is all RC and it is sick. There were so many other directions he could have taken this.

You people are really pushing this too far. Farah is doing a fine job in this storyline and she has improved. She received SOW's Applause applause and also is up in polls for best acting every week. If she doesn't tear up you put her down if she does they are fake tears. :rolleyes: There was an extra who blogged about these scenes about two months ago and he was witness that those were real tears. Although I doubt you will, lay off the hate already.

Thanks. I've never met the guy, and didn't find out until a year or so ago that we were related, however I always suspected it since we have the same last name, and my family lived in TN before moving to KY....but it's still pretty neat.

I agree with you though....it would be like interrupting programming for a wedding or birthday party. :lol:

Wow. Erika is once again playing Frances Reid and serving tea to Gigi and being her sounding board. Erika has been very vocal about enjoying Farah's "energy"

The six time emmy winner must regretting her words now!

I love Viki's kitchen so much though.

Oh and look! its Stacey. This girl gets the coveted fade to the opening EVERY DAY. We know who runs this show now!

I like her evil but come on, balance. balance. balance.

This is the third straight day that my OLTL viewing has been interrupted (even though today it was only for about two minutes).

Wednesday I missed about twenty minutes of the episode because the electric company was working just up the road on a telephone pole, and turned the electricity off.

Yesterday of course, was the Obama news conference, and today the two minute interruption about the Binghamton, New York shooting rampage.

Not that it's the same situation, but remember that Nathaneil Marston's picture was absent from the opening there for awhile while he was still on the show, before it returned again. Although, the couple picture with Marcie I think remained in the opening during that time.

It's just sad about the vets.....I can still remember when they refused to give poor Phil Carey a new contract the year before he died of cancer.

    • Oh wow that’s pretty awesome! I wish I had  approached him but there was so many people 
    • 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.
