How about a promo for what's ahead?

Elizabeth Hendrickson is my new favourite actress on daytime. She just, rocks.

Monday's show was enjoyable. Without giving anything away, the Phyllis/Jack scenes were good. MS and PB are always great together. I think the best is yet to come.

I liked Devon going off on Tyra, but I wish Bryton will stop with the diva antics when acting (waving his hands), he reminds me of Lil Bow Wow when he does that. Oh, and Tyra wasn't half bad bad in that scene. Then I started to hate her again.

I missed Mary Jane, she's a hoot. Those sunglasses the other day was too much.

Raul/Mac were surprisingly enjoyable, and their story made sense.

^^Agreed on both counts. I hope they don't get rid of Mary Jane because they kept Phyllis.

Oh and Kristoff St. John may not be the most dynamic actor, but DAMN that man is FINE. However, stupid TPTB decided to give us too much shirtless Kevin instead. Blah.

Elizabeth Hendrickson has really impressed me on Y&R, I could NOT STAND her as Maggie but with a stronger character and better writing she just shines. How fun was she on Friday with the "wait for it, wait for it, it's not you!" to Billy?

Between her, Billy Miller, Stacy Haiduk and James Scott that's 4 actors AMC wasted that went on to find success on other soaps. Any future AMC actors should just consider the job a year long audition.

AMC sucks for wasting those actors, but at least they have a great casting director who found them. Why the hell does Y&R hire folks like Eva Marcille? If anything Y&R should hire way AMC's casting director. He/she obviously has an eye for talent.

I think Cornelius might be much closer to what I imagined Devon as. I guess he's a bit too old? But he can play angry-and-bitter when needed, right?

I definitely know Egan could bring more range to Mackenzie...but don't you think she's too "chirpy"...too close to Rachel Kimsey?

And no...just no...please no...to Minshew. But that is probably a personal bias. I'm still holding out for Heather Tom, though I am partial to Alvin's Tognoni idea. Tom & Tognoni already shared OLTL's Kelly...so maybe sharing Y&R's Victoria could work.

    • Christian Streaty wrote her second freelance script today on Days. Surprised they gave the first funeral episode to a newbie.  
    • And the third thing, which I have no cite for, and I may look to see if one is findable, but supposedly she said that the show had too much gay content in it. And, to be fair, that could be someone making a criticism about balance & not be bigotry but when it's added to the other, that's why it bugs people.

      The greatest tv series season finale in history.   
    • Mick Savage was sooo unbearable. And more unbearable was the reaction from the female characters to him - they were acting like he is God's gift to women and sooo irresistible. To a point of unbelievable cringe. 
    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna? 
    • This is the coldest early June in my life. It's like it's January.

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!
