When is this dance going to be over? :wacko: It's dull.

Glad to see Erica hasn't completely stopped the snide remarks towards Krystal. :lol:

This show confuses me in the couplehood department. It's like the writers can't decide whether they want Krystal and Tad to be a couple or not. Same goes for Adam and Erica.

Agreed. Same goes for Zach and Kendall and Zach and Liza.

Brot and Natalia are adorable, as usual. Next to Frankie and Randi scenes, it's no contest who's a better couple.

Ryan and Erica = :ph34r:

Scott and Annie are hot. Too bad the writers are ruining their characters to put them together.

IA Scott and Annie are hot. I like Scott, but he runs the risk of being deadly boring with someone like Marissa. Annie keeps him interesting. Zack and Liza are sort of hot, but I would rather see Liza with David. Those two could raise holy hell in PV together for years to come. Tad just doesn't work for me with Crystal or Taylor. His character has become really annoying to me lately.

They had to put Ryan/Erica together for "cougar" publicity. They have to have Adam there to make sure Annie gets to take a central role in the Chandler family as Adam phased out. Seeing her in the forced scenes with Scott, who looks like a young David Canary, seems like a hint of Adam being on his way out. Everything with Annie in this story seems forced to me.

Yay, another heavy-handed Rebecca Taylor script. I believe I will tune this one out. The first two acts were enough. Let me get this straight... Adam says "Stuart" after he collapses, and Ryan immediately assumes that means Adam remembers Annie killing Stuart? :rolleyes: Where the HELL is any indication that that could be a possibility, let alone be a possibility for Ryan to make such a leap?

I'm going to take a break from watching until this boring dance marathon ends!

I have no clue why the writers want to put Tad with Krystal or Erica with Adam but I don't like either as a couple.

They really blew it with Adam/Annie. Here they had a couple with chemistry who could have grown closer as town pariahs and become Pine Valley's power couple, but they ruined it by sticking her with Scott and making Adam her fool.

It's Ryan, he stopped using logic about 10 years ago.

I was disappointed that Adam's vision of Stuart was so short. I was expecting a conversation in which Adam revealed he's playing Annie as much as she's playing him, but that's probably just wishful thinking on my part and he really is being duped by her.

Other lowlights of this episode for me: Brot being pulled into the Hubbards "evil Madison must be stopped" BS and Jake rejecting Amanda because she won't go on the run with him and the baby.

Oh, my GAWD! I watched it earlier, thinking that maybe I was throwing the baby out with the bath water. Big mistake. Should've committed. Brot being dragged into the Hubbards and their crap is really disappointing. Largely because it's yet another person to help Jesse commit crime after crime.

    • I hope this played better than it sounds, because I'm imagining two separate scenes (the attack by Arnie, and later Charles getting shot). In my mind, it should have been a fluid single sequence. I wonder if or how often "bastard" was uttered in this scene. Fare thee well, Christopher Reeve. I've said it before, but pop culture's gain was daytime's definite loss. Imagine seeing HIM day after day, year after year, decade after decade, conceivably until they stopped producing soaps in NYC.   Well, that answers my "bastard" question. Good lord, the roads of Rosehill are packed with high-strung drivers and/or pedestrians. More sequences that I hope played better than they sound.

    • I think Ben had already left while under Marland and only returned briefly to reconcile with Eve. The whole thing confuses me as I thought for a long time that Eve left the show to go be with him and that was when they reconciled, but it seems like he returned, they got back together, then he left and maybe they were still together until she left to join him? I have no idea.  It does seem like the interim writers were using some characters like Justin and Helena who were quickly dumped under Kobe/Long, which is a shame. Helena is one of those characters who likely always had a shelf life but Rose Alaio was such a vibrant screen presence, if Kobe/Long had just been patient, she likely would have fit in well in the Reva era.
    • Also, the lawsuit story was not the right story to bring Naomi and Bill into a court battle since those types of lawsuits are usually resolved via settlements.
    • I know that Sara did eventually become Carrie's therapist, but I was curious if the show had her make comments regarding Carrie's stunts of making it seem as though Justin was cheating on Jackie.  Given that Justin cheated on Sara with both Jackie and Brandy, I wondered if it was wise of her to counsel Carrie given the conflict of interest involved. @DRW50I think once Adam/Sara end up married.. Marland didn't see any reason to explore Sara's personal life after the actor playing Adam was released.  I know that Sara lasts until at least Christmas 1982 on the show.. but I don't think she ended up staying on for very long into 1983. The period between Marland quitting and Pam Long starting was the perfect time to clean house on characters that had outgrown their usefulness  (i.e. Ben, Evie, Sara, Jennifer, Morgan).. and tying up stories started by Marland that were too complex (Mona Enright, Mark/Jennifer/Amanda triangle).
    • Unpopular opinion:  The focus on the soap opera tropes over the mysteries and crimes was partly what did the show in.  Also, featuring characters not involved in the legal, police, and criminal elements also hurt the show and took away what made it unique. Featuring characters like Jody, Raven, Sky, etc hurt the show long term.  The show ABCified starting in 1976/1977 and then went through a youthification period starting in 1981.  
    • I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
    • It's been a while, but we have seen the foyer to Bill and Hayley's house as well as the exterior entrance to their house. The foyer was first seen in the premiere episode when Hayley met Vanessa at the house.
    • There's still a year or two before Larkin arrives. Joel is there already. EON does noticeably youthify, although I think they carry it off. Admittedly I haven't seen most of the Jody stories, which from what people here have said aren't great.
