My least favorite has to be that gloved hand blackmailer/peeping tom/ rapist/he's really Julian and Eve's shemale son storyline. Granded at first Vincent was a little creepy/scary when he was blackmailing Theresa, I could not sit through Fancy getting repeatedly raped and everyone just putting her back in her unsafe room. And then he raped Luis too and used to condom to get Luis's sperm into her. Gross! And then Vincent's obsession with Ethan as he walked around in that creepy mask. It was all too much.

I agree that the androgynous rapist story was a real low point. It was supposed to be campy; instead, it came off twisted, nasty, and sick. Nobody enjoyed that storyline. And the actor who played the character was pretty lousy too.

I think my favorite was Ivy chasing after Sam (often in her motorized scooter). I think Ivy/Sam had the best dynamic out of all the other over wrought long lost loves like Eve/Julian, Kay/Miguel, Ethan/Teresa and Sheridan/Luis. The dynamic of this rich, elitist, pampered bitch on the outs fighting for a married, average joe was fun to watch. Kim Johnston-Ulrich was fantastic in the role. She was one of the few on the show to be campy in the right places, while giving dramatic heft to the more serious stuff.

I think I am alone in liking Heidi Mueller as the final Kay. She gets a bad rap because of her reality show past, but I think she vastly improved over time.

I remember that Julian's dick nonsense it was stupid. Passions reached new levels of bad on Direct TV . Eve and Julian spent most of their time boozing and popping pills, Vincent kept telling Drunk/High Eve that she was doing the surgery right(he was the only one in the room with her) and at the finale Kay fixed it magically.

I also hated Esme and hated that they made her a contract character during Direct TV. She was one of those campy character that should've been restricted to visits only. Ug hand then she slept with Julian after sleepnig with Fox and bragged about it to Fancy.

I wasn't a fan of the Vincent raping people, but I did love him giving birth and cutting off Julian's penis and it being reattached upside down. I thought it was hilarious. I loved it so much I even made edits and put in on youtube, but sadly my channel got shut down. I still have those edits, so I might reupload them in the future.

I loved Esme! She was so funny.

    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
