I am so happy someone remembers that Taylor's maiden name was Ashford when she came to the show! I thought I was making things up :)

Just like Maggie Forrester's name was Hannah when young Jessica first came to L.A., Bill Spencer had mentioned the name of Caroline's mother being Marianne and Melissa and from what I remember, in the eighties Stephanie's sister had been mentioned as Lauren.

Really? Oh, I missed all these continuity errors. This is fascinating.

The one (but that's pretty typical for soaps, I guess) that jars me constantly is Taylor's unexplained shift from oncology to psychiatry.

This show has gotten even stupider. At least when it was unwatchable before, you could almost tell the show knew how horrible it was and tried to quickly wrap it up. This Bill Spencer s/l looks like it was purposefully orchestrated - and it has no logic whatsoever.

- Bill Jr. still has no motive at all for hating anybody. He's "always wanted to own FC"???? DD is playing him like a cartoon.

- A friggin BLOG/webcast has brought FC to its knees? Show me one example IRL where a powerful company has been brought down by a blog/webcast.

-Watching Brooke sit there and do that insipid webcast made me want to hurl my chai latte at the screen. She really is as dumb as Stephanie thinks she is.

-But Stephanie is in good company cause her IQ has dropped like like Owen's pants in every other scene with Jackie (no complaints there). I guess in order to prop up Bill, they're sacrificing Stephanie - the only dependable character on this show for years?

- Thank God for DVR's - does anyone at all care that Nick and Bridget are back together? Anyone?

-They're the favorite to win the Best Show Emmy this year??

- And finally, WHY ON EARTH DOES BILL JR. HAVE TO BUY FC FIRST, AND THEN STEPHANIE & CO. BUY IT? Why doesn't she just buy it herself?? And doesn't Karen have ANY say on company aquisitons??

P.S. - WHY DO I STILL WATCH THIS SHOW???

A very sexy hairy cartoon.

Let's ask Chris Engen?

Yeah. But it's also kinda funny. I just think Brooke is the cutest little thing. All she has to do is crook her finger, wear her teddy or cry her tears...and I'm her boy. You said something about Vail Bloom in dmarex's avatar in the Y&R thread a few weeks ago. Well, that's also Brooke, IMO.

.

Yup. For the "Stormy Weather" episodes.

Major logical flaw. Which tells you that Bill Jr. is not going to give it up.

Brandon Beemer, Don Diamont...maybe Texas Battle or Kyle Lowder?

And Katherine Kelly Lang! Damn!

I just have to comment on how amazingly hot LAD/Jackie looked this week. Once again, she pulled off the skirt and boots very well. She looked young in her outfit and they way her make-up and hair was done. I already rewatched her scenes in Tuesday's ep a couple of times. LOL

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
