for some odd reason i don't think he's dead i'm looking at the last 2 mintues and it seems to me he's faking his death it took him too long for his eyes to close and he forced his eyes closed. I'm hoping one of the shooters got hit or a innocent bystander(RYAN).

Actually, I thought that part was great. Everything was melodramatic, but in a good way. If it's not nurse Gayle, then I think it's Little Adam. It'll be like when Joey shot grandma Kate. Social issue storyline: don't play with guns, kids.

What a great episode. I stopped watching AMC long ago but someone told me to check it out. I hate they killed Adam or Stuart, but I wish I knew who some of the people were. Who is the woman talking to the two kids and why does JR say Adam killed Dixie? The only problem with this mystery is the structure of it. Any of the people we saw could randomly be determined the killer thereby making the whole mystery a sort of fake mental exercise. To be a great mystery there can only be one killer possible and the solution should be really a surprise. Be it Kendell, JR or her husband, what will be the surprise when the killer is revealed?

One thing that bothered me and made me chuckle was that when Ian "died," Kendall just rushed out of the hospital. If I were her, I don't know, maybe I would allow myself to grieve for a second or two and then go kill Adam. I know that the writers were trying to advance the plot, but it just seemed ridiculous.

Also, I lost track of how many guns were actually in the mansion. It got confusing. Regardless, should be an intriguing murder mystery for the summer.

Wow - that was one intense hour of TV! Loved it all --- sure, some of it was contrived as hell (hello Zendall - worst parents ever leaving your presumed dead baby alone in the hospital....but anyway....) ---- but who cares? I was glued to my set!

Angela Tessanari is a soap directing genius! She made that episode for sure. Really loved all the exterior shots too.

Everyone put in a great performance - and I loved how all the characters were used.

Poor Stuart :( But yeah, why was he dressed up like Adam? Part of the mystery I guess -- can't wait for next week.

I'm hiping it's not nurse Gayle either... If it was Palmer I admit I migth be ok with that as it's obvious poor James can't work much longer and it would send his character out with a bang and tie into their eternal rivalry.

someone mentioned Stuart havign m,ultiple personalities--remember when he was introduced to the show he was a schizophrenic, dangerous character Adam had to keep locked in the attic--some of that could come back I guess?

Maybe it's Brooke :D

    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
