That was me! I'm really glad more Williams are on the way, although I'm not sure if this will be about Patty Jane.

I'd also like to see Steve, because you don't need a big name to play him, or pay a lot for a returning actor. Just find a good, solid actor and put him in the role.

I miss Andy too, I wish he could come back to see Paul, but I know he probably won't.

Seeing Heather Tom today with spunk (playing drunk and funny), opposite a sexy and strangely tender Don Diamont....my heart broke for all that could have been if these two had been playing Brad and Victoria together.

And seeing Heather Tom today doing a wonderful job...this picture of Amelia makes me even angrier.

It's time to make some kind of change. If they can recast Engen in a DAY...surely they can fix Victoria.

But, if they improve the Katie role on B&B...then Heather Tom can't reprise the Victoria role. In that case, I'd be inclined to support your Gina Tognoni idea.

He looks pretty good to me, so I'll be giving him a chance. If the idea is for Adam to manipulate Rafe, I think that's going to be great TV. Especially, if he's laughing at both Rafe and Heather while he manipulates them. I've loved how determined Adam is to get his revenge and if the new guy can keep that up, I'll be happy with him. I'm still hoping Adam is not written out.

Easily CF's best day. I, as many others do, hope this is a sign in the right direction. Chloe sounded like a mini Phyliss today when she was going off on Mac. I'd love a scene of the two getting drinks and lamenting about their husbands. P.s. Cause I haven't said it in a few months, I love Elizabeth Hendrickson..she's just perfect.

Loooving this Mary Jane stuff. Finally Paul's getting involved.

As far as CE and Adam go, I liked him..I didn't love him, but I liked him. Sometimes his acting choices were strange to me, but I didn't mind him and will be sad when he's gone just because I hate adjusting to recasts.

Did anybody find it weird that Chloe pulled out a condom before Chilly got it on yesterday. Her line was something about not wanting to have another baby giving them dirty diapers around there. There was no reaction from Billy but the line stayed with me. I put it in the "Billy's the daddy" column.

I remember that Muhney guy from VERONICA MARS was great playing one of those assholes whom irritated you, but you didn't want gone. I can see that fitting in perfectly for one of Victor's sons.

Definitely Victoria and Colleen. If it works, this lightning-fast Engen switch should embolden them.

That said, I think Heinle is very popular behind the scenes...which is probably the opposite of Engen. This probably explains her stay factor somewhat.

Before yesterday, I totally would agree. But did you see her on Thursday's B&B? Drunk and funny. Flirty. Not sad and weepy at all.

If they are finally going to allow her to "Heather-ize" Katie, then there will be no going back.

    • Well, Claire did rig Rick's test results, but it was to flunk. They actually managed to get his correct results back after they were thrown into Cedar's furnace...I think? Everyone knew Claire changed them and Rick passed so that rewrite never made sense.   I agree. Pratt always seems "edgy" on screen (and her Locker Room interview prooved that it came from her personality.) I liked Claire causeing trouble and love Meta ringing her beads. Its just too bad that Abby left and they kinda just forgot Claire existed. 
    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.
