Rose(Alvin)- You're just tired and blaming it on me.

Dorothy(me)- Tired!?? I'll show you who's tired! :lol:

You are so repeating yourself Alvin with the Cane stuff and Phick :lol:

Why would there need to be a Daniel doppleganger? The character isn't that important to the fabric of the show. If Billy Miller up and quit, then hell yeah, we have to get a new Billy Abbott. If MG leaves, what's the point of another Daniel? The show needs to bring on characters like Kyle or Keemo or even Ricky. I am honestly asking the question: What is point of Daniel? If anyone can answer the question, I will be very interested in what you have to say.

well I guess we can all thank the Soap Gods we don't all have the same views!! if we all liked the same thing it would be boring as hell!

I would take any PHICK day good or bad over any SHICK day! I had enough of their story, time to move on and forward instead of backwards and boring! we can not re-visit the past in the REAL world, why should we be forced to endure it in the REEL world!!

Exactly, I agree. :)

How about putting an end to both couples, and givng Phyllis someone dynamic partner to play off of, which will never be Nick? Phyllis could do MUCH BETTER.

They need some creative writers to break these coupls up and pair them all with new people.

I've never thought in terms of it is written so as one should root for this ONE couple. People will like who they like and in some cases some like neither, I don't know maybe it's a bit naive of me to think MAB gets that at this point. I mean I assume Shick is endgame but I think even in this case this works to the shows benefit

If we going to give Sharon a Abbot baby it should be Jacks, Not only he had a child by his ex step son ex wife. I'm sure the writers would think of something with Jack vs Victor on a whole different level. Then it will bring Nikki into play. Maybe she'll remember that she once was pregnant by Jack.

This is even better to have Sharon carrying Jack kid. Just to show Nikki what she would have missed out on. the nwe finally can see Jack as an hands on father. Because I'm sure Sharon won't send the child away. & She 'll to busy get back with Nick & whoever.

Not that intrigued by a Shack baby the plotlines that event will drive can and will be driven by many other important elements. From my perspective why tie the Abbotts and Newmans through bloodline anymore than they are already (ABBY)? I'll continue to buy the feud with less common relatives involved. The less the better. I'm already a bit on the fence about legacy characters Noah and Abby's relation (though many times I forget and have to be reminded), but that I get. After the fans get increasingly tired of the whole quad there goes the benefit of having a Shack baby, I might be the only one but I'm not interested....

Naturally, I disagree. Who cares about Abby? She's a teen that was SOARSED basically because Noah was and because Ashley came back to town. The writers have a good three or four years of story with a Sharon sired Abbott. There are not enough baby boys on the playing field. But then, they can make Summer and Baby Boy Abbott nearer to each other's ages in a decade for a romance that would draw the quad together again.

No I don't believe an Abbott should be the father. It would be interesting if this who's the daddy tale involved a non-Newman- non-Abbott if they didn't want to make the baby Nick's for story reasons, but I'm not interested in the Sharon/abbott offspring. I however would find it interesting if the part of the twist was the belief that baby was an Abbott, where (planned quite well/thoroughly) quite delciously the twist is that the baby is actually a Newman

    • I think Cheryl was essentially replaced by Josie, and it seems likely that Lemay wanted to bring the Frames back into the picture and for a variety of reasons that it would be McKinnons who would make way for them. Cheryl didn't really get many layers -- she was pretty and kind and sweet and faded into the background so that Scott could participate in the AIDS storyline with Dawn. Looking at the AWHP, other than (not very) shockingly being in love with her mother's adopted son Scott, Cheryl apparently went out with Sam and flirted with much-too-old-for-her John Hudson and MJ's ex-boyfriend/pimp Chad. I know MJ told Mary that she had been a prostitute, but did she tell Cheryl and did she tell anyone about Chad's pimping?   
    • I feel the same way about Melissa Reeves' Jennifer. She just makes the show feel like home by her presence alone. I am perfectly okay with them coming in every once and awhile, which probably fits Reeves' schedule better anyway. They're connections to Salem are still there: JJ, the grandkids, Jack still owning half of The Spectator ... they're perfect recurring characters.
    • Hahaha. Jean Hackney, Angelica Nero, and the Falcon Crest henchwomen were all straight out of a James Bond movie.
    • My hunch is what you've described. JFP is likely back working on transitioning the show to a new studio and embracing new technology for its production model.
    • The woman who was the co-chair of Latinas for Trump is now complaining about his targeting immigrants that she thought were "safe." I also read a puff piece from yet another "insider" journalist who lives to normalize fascists - this one with a tech bro who was venting off the record because he thought voting for Trump was cool and would show up the Democrats and maybe we'd get Greenland, but now he's getting upset.  These people still support Trump, and Republicans, they just want to make sure they get credit for being respectable. And they will get it.
    • I really do wish someone could. Just a few characters in very simple backdrops, with very real problems that are just a little larger than life, like the '50s and '60s. All the characters having a level of dignity or respect. And their inner lives are what dominate the story, even if there are outside forces at play.
    • It's a lesson to never be loyal because once your use is up, you're shown the door. MSW was the only bright spot for CBS for awhile, and once they were back on top... they promptly sabotaged the show as a repayment for all that the show had done for the network.  
    • The show made a mistake in not bringing in more McKinnon kids, specifically bringing back Ben. Kathleen was leaving, and while I like you am very fond of Sally Spencer as MJ, that didn't seem to be a common view. They also decimated the character in a truly sick storyline. So that just left Cheryl. 
    • Between Gwen and Cat, the show often seems to side with those who cause lots of cruelty to Jack and Jennifer. I am half-surprised that the show hasn't brought Peter Blake back for more of the same.  I don't really know if there is a purpose for them in Salem now, but I do feel a sense of stability and rightness when Melissa Reeves is back in the role of Jennifer and back in the Horton house, in spite of...well, a lot of offcamera stuff we all know perfectly well. 
    • I like to call her an FC-reject character
