Excellent post, in fact, I said the same thing yesterday about Khalil!

I could deal with Cane if I didn't have to suffer CK's portrayal of Lily, nauseating indeed!

I'm really liking Mac with Raul but I still hate what they've done to the Billy character by having him so suddenly sniffing after Mac like a lost puppy dog.

You gotta give the show credit for scripting Billy's WORST DAY EVER.

Raul's back and involved with Mac.

Jack RIPS HIM A NEW ONE for shagging Sharon.

he might be having another little one, and he can't even both to respond to the tears of his first one.

Then, Mac and Raul are ENGAGED.

Finally, Chloe has left him.

Miller REALLY delivered, especially in that scene with Bergman. You could see how Bergman's feeding him the moist eyes enabled Miller to feel all that hurt and disappointment and give it back. AMAZING.

My one regret in this beat of the story is that I don't feel the "guy-love" or "bro-mance" that Billy and Raul used to have. I realize that's because he came right to town and "stole" the love of Billy's life...but I would have liked to feel Billy's love for both Mac AND Raul...making this even harder for him.

In other words, "I hate that he stole my girl, but I am overjoyed that the best friend I ever had has found love".

I hope they develop this part of it. I think they should be able to script and play the duality of Billy's jealousy and his affection for his friend.

I love it as well. The show was really good today but either I missed something or the script writing/breakdown writing was choppy. The scenes didnt flow like they should have. I could have just been my imagination.

The only bad stuff was Lily and Cane. They are so boring. Can Lily be anymore annoying. Geesh

CKLily is being unfairly bashed. She was convincing as the airhead bride on her honeymoon. There is not much more to the character and that is not her fault.

I feel like the boobs police. Y&R wardrobe has got help CF pick out a properly fitted bra. MS's boobs were also flaying around. At their age, gravity is not kind to loose breasts and they should know this fact.

Raul!!! He has transformed Mackenzie. He is rainbows and sunshine and puppies!!!

When Adam was hiding under Ashley's bed, for a moment there I was afraid that Victor & Ashley were gonna get it on!!! :blink: Would have served Adam right.

Poor Jack! Stupid Billy! Just for karma's sake, I wish the baby was Billy's and he was stuck raising both kids by himself. That would be hilarious.

I agree with this. CK plays it the way the director wants her too. CK has stated in numerous interviews that she wants Lily to have more balls (her words, not mine). I think she is just as frustrated as we are.

    • Oh wow that’s pretty awesome! I wish I had  approached him but there was so many people 
    • In the current environment, while it's small, there is a crumb of good news: Apparently, San Antonio voted for a DEMOCRATIC mayor, Gina Ortiz, beating the "right-hand man" of Gov. Greg Abbott, former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5337199-gina-ortiz-jones-wins-san-antonio/
    • Love this! You are both adorable. Wow
    • I have not gone back to watch much of 1987, but from what I've seen lately, it doesn't feel like the writers or producers had any sort of plan. The show feels as if it's constantly in flux.  I will give it credit for this. It's watchable for the most part minus Lisa/Jamie which I find nearly unwatchable now.   I don't find Cheryl mousy. I think she has a lot of quiet strength, but she was saddled with the Scott romance which the writers did not invest in. She had a good friendship with Julie (also criminally underused), and her interactions with Ada were enjoyable as well. I also like Layman, but Spencer was extremely talented and when Cass returns, Schnetzer and Spencer have some wonderful scenes. Spencer also fits in with Alexander, Hogan, and Marie.  I'd forgotten just how much I missed seeing Wallingford. IT was so good to see him again. Even when they didn't have a major plot, Felicia/Cass/Wallingford/Mitch always brings a smile to my face.  
    •   Dani’s cute ass party planner. He gave me some tea but I was so drunk I don’t remember it.
    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside.
