Now, I'm really intrigued by who murdered Dr. Chappelle! I just don't see Adam going so far as to have his henchmen do it.

David fixing the valve in surgery was a nice twist. How long before he uses that info against the Chandlers?

Opal's going to really freak out now that Annie is actually in the window. I can't wait for Monday!

His acting is very John Callahan-y to me. And that's not good.

Pratt is someone who could care less about acting ability (watch an episode of Models Inc for proof). I truly believe that Randi/Denise Vasi would not have lasted a full year had Pratt not come on board. But she's a pretty face so he will keep her around. Same with Brianne Moncrief's Colby; Pratt actually said that Brianne Moncrief has real untapped talent and that it was one of his primary goals to give her more to do.

Then there's Brittany Allen (Marissa), whose range seems to consist of smiling and laughing.

I'm actually starting to really enjoy Marissa/Brittany Allen. She is definitely likeable and has shown some natural talent (unlike Brianne Moncrief's stiff take). Plus she's been introduced to the majority of the cast already and has great chemistry with everyone so far (I was surprised by the Aiden scene today - that was a nice touch).

Annie looked great! They should have worked those bangs 6 months ago when the bang style was back in...but it still looks great on her. Loved the ending with Opal.

Really enjoing AMC - just caught up on this week's and it was definitely a 'set up' week for all the crazy shiz that's about to go down...but it was fun to watch. Maybe a little too much RyZendall, but oh well - I like how the heart valved story has included a lot of the cast. I just hate how Zach calls the shots with everyone - and everyone just backs down and cowers down to him.

Oh - I loved the Erica/Mona/Opal scene on Thursday. Susan Lucci nailed it - probably her best acted scene in a long time. She even produced a few tears which is amazing for her. ;)

WOW! I totally forgot about Samuel Woods (and Mario Van Peebles)!

Yeah, it's time to update the AMC opening. I'd almost swear I still see Eden Riegel there, even though, I know that can't be.

That's the thing that irritates me about this actress and bleeds into my feelings about the character. That damn smile.

"Your child was alone on the beach! :D "

"My parents died in a car crash, leaving me with no money! :D "

"I'm leaving because I seem to be getting in the way! :D "

"What did you say? I need to have an emergency hysterectomy? :D "

Amazing? Miraculous is more like it. It's a miracle since she probably had her tear ducts sewed shut during that horrid facelift of 2004. Remember? She was in Las Vegas, crying over Eric Kane's coffin -- but her face couldn't move and no tears were produced? I KNOW those things were either sewn up or removed for that latest facelift!

    • I wouldn't call Tomas' cuts a modern cut. They appear to be a slim/extreme slim cut⏤cut slimmer down the sides, with a higher armhole, which pulls up/out, depending on the fit of the person's body. Again, I feel like Ms Featherstone is buying to fit the wrong parts of the body; instead of buying to fit their widest parts (shoulders), she's buying things to fit their middle/waist (which is the easiest to ultimately fix without a complete re-cut), and it shows in the finished product. And the only reason it irks me is because I worked in suit sales for nearly ten years, and I notice these things immediately. The fashion(s) on this soap are miles ahead of three of the four others (I like the fashions from Y&R), but the tailoring is a choice, especially where the men are concerned.
    • There probably would have been a good chance they knew of him, especially with his ties to Spaulding and his being involved in so much scandal (meaning there would be plenty of photos and articles around they both would have seen), but I agree the mask was silly, clearly just a TV moment.

    • I think all the suits are fit too tight, except for Jon Lindstrom's. DC lawyers/doctors are not all LA fashion elites. Yes, maybe Tomas would have a more modern cut to his suit, but an established guy like Bill wouldn't go around looking like that lonely button on his jacket was ready to explode constantly.
    • I do think there's room for optimism, especially with Amazon making enough new episodes to last until December. There's still time for the various players to get their ducks in a row. Guess we'll know soon enough! 
    • I do agree it's better to just have people pop back into town. I never understood why Roger needed a mask on an island, when neither Fletcher or Alex would've known who he was. And the vine...sigh. Couldn't he have just been sent crashing through a window or something?
    • When the announcement was first made, I did wonder if other plans were in the works. I guess we can always keep hoping, especially as the show has a small core cast.
    • @chrismlAbout Lisa, agree to disagree. Actually at the time she was the only thing my partner & I disagreed about. Naturally she was Team Vicky while I was steadfast as Team Lisa.  About John & twin paternity, I think that like the 3 pillows was a transitory idea someone had that no one else agreed with. More of the attempt to accommodate Philece. About MJ, co-sign, 100% agree, if there were more degrees I would claim them. About Wally & Felicia, always a fan. Mitch? Eh, take or leave. Although I do agree that WGE is a really striking man. Who have I left out? I don't know so that's all I got.

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
