Except, what if the baby isn't Jack's, but Patty Jane's under the impression that it is? Man, this story's about to get good and messy. :lol:

Meanwhile, can anyone explain/interpret Sharon's dream for me? Is that MAB's way of saying Summer isn't Nick's? Do you think she's saying Sharon won't even have the baby? Bueller?

I think Lauren is being wasted.

I can't begin to understand the contract/guarantee/budget issues.

Any 'newish' viewer would have no idea that Paul and Lauren were once married and a major couple.Doug and Tracey always had good chemistry..Their divorce was borne out of bad luck/circumstance.

It would be nice to see an occasional scene where they touch base and seek each other out for advice etc.

Since both are used so sparingly,it is not a priority.

Where are the Paul/Nikki flashbacks that should be used to bolster their story?

Lauren and Paul reconnecting could be an interesting sublot to Paul/Nikki and Michael/Lauren.There is so much history there.

If Billy is the father,that makes 2 women he has impregnated in the past year or so.Not a great thing for that character.

As for Jack being the father,he already has 2 children he never sees.

That leaves Nick as a possibility.If Sharon lies about it,it could drive story for quite a while.

Wait and see....

Business stories need to be better told,than at present.

Phyllis need Nick at Restless Style?Please,the magazine runs itself!He was hardly ever there any way.

I HATE RESTLESS STYLE!!!!

Tracey Bregman is a wonderful actress, which is being criminally underused like so many others. To critique her on one little scene doesn't mean much. She was fantastic under LML (when she actually had lines), especially in the two-episode PTS arc. Some say TB has no loyalty, but where is TPTB loyalty to actors like Doug Davidson and Kristoff St. John - and to a lesser extent Bryton McClure? All three are contract actors and receive little to no story. So, I doubt if TB went on contract that she'd actually get more airtime.

Aside from that....

I LOVE everything going down on the Newman Ranch. But MAB needs to stop heavily featuring the ONE story she's interested in, while going in circles with the rest.

I'm not kidding, though! I still remember when Jack printed the gory photos of David and Sabrina's car crash, along with a story about her death. Like, for real? Who would print that in a fashion magazine? "What's next," I said, "exclusive photos of Chloe's sonogram?"

    • Vanessa told Joey that her best friend had cheated and has a surprise daughter.  Joey said the same had happened to him.  I wasn't sure if Joey was saying he has an adult out-of-wedlock child?
    • Interesting. I definitely think that it's possible that Jan could be a former lover of Joey's from back in the day, maybe back when he was still married. I won't be surprised if it comes out at some point that Jan used to be an escort or something. 
    • Quick question, How are you guys making time to watch all these soaps? I consider myself a pretty organized person, but since I have committed to watching more of the older soaps. I feel all over the place, and can not figure out a schedule that seems to work.  How are you all doing it?   Thanks. I will check that out.
    • Oh, poor Henry had to wait for the grave to finally come "out"! The whole things was McTavish plot dictated so that Hart could have money to pull off his scam of Roger later. The fortune is totally forgotten later. Which reminds me WHY did they fire Hilliard who actually could kinda pass for a midwestern farm boy..from JOISEY Grillo? AM and Lucy's wedding has got to be the weirdest wedding up to that point and really exemplified the McLaiby cheesy run. Universal Studios? And the Spauldings shut the place down for the wedding that only involves 6 people??? Its not even that weird that Bridget and David arent there...they didn't even invite AM's Mom or Grandfather...
    • TBH, I found Felicity's dialogue in those scenes where she encouraged Chad and Cat to admit their feelings for one another more offensive than Xander yelling (although both are bad).  And, I don't get why there is any question of Xander's behavior being offensive, given that he knew that Felicity deserved an apology.  A customer openly expressing anger at a service employee in public is awful, regardless of circumstance. I like giving the character more to do, because there is a value in representing a person with a congenital disorder being employed, given that the unemployment rate in that community tops 83%.  I just hope they find a voice for the character that matches her functioning ability.  As for Cat, I wonder if she is going to inherit any of Clyde's money?  And that was the reason for the phone call.  I know he's not dead, but he could have named her family as the beneficiary of some insurance policy if he were to be incapacitated.  And the call could have been an attorney trying to reach her to give her money.
    • Oh you may have been watching the Teresa/Tom storyline...or "Terry the tumor" as she was called.
    • Are these new?! Damn, he is in the prime of his life. 
    • He is a 40 year old large grown man "raising his voice" and calling a teenage girl "careless".  That's inappropriate.  I am not going to argue at the octave of his voice although I would consider it yelling.  Felicity was visibly upset.  She also has special needs, but it would be wrong to do that to anyone in general.  Xander was out of line.  He didn't immediately apologize or admit he was wrong until Princess Sarah was okay.  Idk, go find your wife's epipen instead of berating a young girl.  Or, you know, Sarah could have asked if there was any pistachio in her scone as a pre-caution.  That's how most people with allergies that severe order things. I do think this story or plot point is silly, but acting like Xander did nothing wrong is just strange.  Even if Felicity DID do something wrong was he just going to continue to go on and on while his wife was going into shock?  That's the proper reaction lol.
    • I didn't get that so far so I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever pick back up.  I must have chosen bad episodes because what I saw had some really bad Irish accents from supporting/day players. They were hard to get through and I just didn't have the patience to deal with them. I don't think these accents would be allowed to go through today. I assume these accents were ironed out as the show went on--reminded me of Deas's terrible accent on GL that was dropped because it was so bad.
