I totally hear you. That's a pacing issue. I don't want to see things move at a glacial pace, but frankly, I would have much preferred a better set-up for whatever this is. They should have given a couple days of this, rather than a couple scenes. And like I said, had the time to play the emotional beats of it, as opposed to just the plot of "We want you to do this", and "Okay, I'll do it". I wish there had been more of that.

So on that, I will absolutely totally agree with you.

And yeah - I have no desire to see Daniel on the run again either. Been there, done that, saw the location shoot. But like I said, as long as this ties back to something emotional, and it's not just a bunch of day player bad guys (Hi, ATWT) and it all means something, I'm willing to overlook a rocky start.

Because he's a f*cking goldmine? SOD puts him on every other cover (and Joshua Morrow on the other half) because they SELL MAGAZINES. EB got a New York Times story. Love him or not, he is their star. Half the show's CURRENT stories are in his orbit. He's their "Lucci". Of COURSE you try to retain such a valuable asset.

Yeah, but with a few words, Brimike has helped me to see--again--this is just the START.

Yes. Honestly, I see no point being a daytime fan without patience.

Oooh. You WOUND me :)

Wicked!

If this is Hogan's or Scott Hamner's idea, then Maria needs to exercise a little executive power and just. say. (hell) no.

I know you can't Mark! And since we're going down this road - let me post my newest theory for Rafe:

Adam learns Rafe is gay. Rafe learns Adam is scheming. Rafe is torn by his beloved Aunt and his crush on Adam. Adam senses it and seduces Rafe with the condition that Rafe will do his bidding. It's perfect cause Adam would be in essence doing the same thing Jack did to him -screw him over (this time literally).

Hey, y'all are the ones who keep turning this board into QAF! I'm trying to bring a little dignity into the proceedings, you know?

The only way I'll find any satisfaction at all w/ Daniel's story is if it puts Amber, or his relationship with her, in jeopardy. Because, quite frankly, I can't stand those two. Otherwise, though, forget it.

    • Is the set for Lulu's new house an updated version of the set used for the childhood home of Luke, Bobbie and Pat Spencer?
    • I feel like AMC would be the easiest of their soaps to revive but a reboot seems cursed at this point. I wish we had more insight on what was pitched for the primetime reboot as well as these movies. That would give us a better idea of why it keeps getting shot down.
    • Mansion of the Damned sure is a "talkative" horror movie.  In the past when I've watched those episodes, I was paying attention to The Edge of Night characters and not really zeroing in on the rehearsals/blocking/filming of the actual movie.  This time I've been following the plot of Mansion of the Damned pretty closely, and all I can say is Hester Atherton and Nicholas Harriman are about the most chit-chatty Witch and Devil I've ever heard in my life!     
    • Ashley and Derek have been so isolated that I need the show to develop something, anything to justify their presence. It's not that I think Joey being her father will be the greatest story ever told but at least it would be something and connect her to more characters. I just need the show to move forward with them. Out of all the characters, these are the only two with no storyline/development. We have recurring characters who are better used with less screentime. If the show is going to keep them on contract they need to do something with them.
    • I never thought I'd say it, but SC is B&B's best male actor - by far. SK is next. Has there ever been a US soap that has so much female talent surrounding by Himbos? KKL, JMW, HT, KB, AN, RB could be/have been leading ladies on any other soap. Even the secondary females are the ones who carry their scenes. It's been rare periods when B&B actually had a few solid male cast members. JMW really did a great job in the scenes with AN. Considering everything we've witnessed the past couple of years with Steffy/Hope, I thought reveal may ring hollow. JMW proved me wrong. No doubt this is Emmy material.
    • You won't even accept a minute cameo from Ms Marcil herself so she can collect her cheque?
    • Which has also slowed down from 100 pages a day, but I digress.

          Yeah. When even I am getting annoyed with it (and still need to catch up on DAYS new team...two weeks behind now grrr) enough to take a break...and B&B holds my interest more for a show where nothing is going on...it's a BAD sign.   Seriously thinking about that break until

       Then we go from there. I just can't believe JG just went and lost all the momentum that was built up over the last month. And during May Sweeps, too? No, ma'am.
    • Works for me!!! Just the back of some brunettes head and a hug lol on the Island And also, I like how it's brand new info Mo was good at his job in the 90's.  That's pretty much the entire reason he's still on the show.
    • I recently edited an older episode to do a Denise Alexander edit but Mo was in scenes & I had forgotten that back then he was actually good at his job.  The contrast with today is well alarming.
