I think this would work Mark because it really did feel like Victor guaranteed those test results would show JT as the father, and now that Brad is dead, Victoria's son will be raised as a Newman and JT could be integrated back into the younger set.

As a fan of some of these ignored characters, it stinks hoping, like the actors, that MAB just might find some way to use them on the show. We hear about budget cuts and yet read about new characters being added to the canvas. These actors and their fans are just being strung along.

Wow, so someone actually took time to read it. Thanks. It's how I've been feeling all along, but I'm still hopeful for things to get better. I have no idea why I'm being such an optimist when in real life I'm always pessimistic.

Good luck with the optimism.

The flaws of this writing regime have been apparent since they took over, it was just masked with the occasional great storyline. But now, these flaws are still there and they aren't getting better or at least attempted by this writing regime to be fixed. It's disappointing and I no longer hold out any hope.

Yeah, even then we knew what we were going to have, but November sweeps took us by surprise and I've pretty much loved the show ever since. It was just something that worked at the moment and when they realized they could constantly use history to push story they decided to go through with it. I'm just sad that when it comes to new stories, they mostly all suck: Sabrina's storyline, Tyra and Ana overall, Daniel's art story, River's time in GC... all either new characters or new stories which are not working.

I read it also and thought it was spot on. Of course, I think Michael and Lauren can play a frontburner story once in awhile :D Still, I am all aboard them being used as significant supporting players if it would save them from being let go and perennial on the backburner. As for your other observations, I agreed with all of them. I would love those in charge to read your post.

I enjoy the show everyday which is why i watch it everyday. I just don't understand why you would watch a show that's horrible and spend so much time talking about how horrible it is. I see lots of good stuff, probably more than most, but I see bad stuff too and post about that too. I just don't get why it's ALL good - or it's ALL bad.

it seems like it gets all political party Dems vs. the GOP - and then it gets very talk-radio where everything is either you're for the show or against the show in its current state. it really perplexes me.

It's plot-driven madness. Victor and Ashley couldn't behave like normal thinking people because, then, Adam wouldn't live to scheme another day. And of course the writers need this sick plot to sink to even lower depths before Adam finally can see his comeuppance (they've gotta string this story out to November sweeps, naturally). It's stupid, and I've checked out.

Jeanne Cooper, Jess Walton, and Tricia Cast are riveting. Damn them! If they weren't so great, I'd have dropped this show like I did AMC.

      date: Monday, June 9 | Teresa Zimmerman, Lynn Martin | Steven Williford YAY! Caroline is back in action at the law offices. I adore Caroline! She is a woman of business, and she handles her business quite well. Could this be the chance for Tomas to move ahead at Bill Hamilton Esq.? Madison is doing the usual tests for strokes: smiling, holding out the hands, etc., but I do wonder if she'll have him touch the tip of her finger and then the tip of his nose. That one is not easy at all. Trust me, I know! It's about time Derek becomes useful: helping to take down Dana by witnessing her interrogation of Ashley at Orphey Gene's. Oh, Nicole is showing up to question Eva, re: her interactions with Laura. This will either be a bitchfest or it'll be a heartfelt one. Cantankerous? Yes, Ashley! Call it like you see it! Is Tomas working with Katherine to set up Dana? I pray he is!! Child bride needs to calm her ass down; now she's hugging Naomi as if they're besties again? This isn't your "get out of jail" card, sweetheart. The weight that I am sure is now lifted from Eva's shoulders with Nicole accepting her apology? I love that for her. And I am sure, deep down, it helps Nicole to accept and hear it, as well. Dani showing up for Bill and their children? That's love right there, and you can tell how much it not only means for Bill but might also be reminding him of why he fell in love with her. Watch out, child bride; your time might be up by mid-summer! Katherine, you are sneaky... but I do have this sneaking suspicion this is going to blow up right back into your face before you know it. The awkward face-to-face with Chelsea and Madison. Dani introducing herself as "the first wife" is hilarious. I love it. Chelsea and Madison openly flirting in the hospital by the elevator is super cute!! Notes: Trisha Mann-Grant (Dana) continues to serve up the right amount of camp for American daytime. She's almost too good for daytime. I appreciate the new viewpoint of the outside of Dana's apartment. Nice that we can get these viewpoints that other soaps wouldn't dare to explore. Tide is seen in the scene; Tide commercials air right after. Today's jacket on Alex Alegria (Tomas) fits better than the past few he's worn. Hoping this trend continues.
