Eh...it was ok I guess. I like the Erica and Annie sparring. As for Kendall being able to get free wifi ANYWHERE...that's a bit absurd.

God, they should've made it more clear that Emma's one little flashback was the real deal, with how much crap they throw around as maybes. There was no real expansion on the story except the ridiculous blackmail ending. I'm sorry, but I'm SO sick of a little, inexperienced actress leading this huge story.

For the balls I thought Ryan had sprung yesterday when he told off Granny, they clearly shriveled up back inside his body today. Egoica was right in calling Zach, my ass! Zach, doing exactly what he does, was up in there barking about using Emma as Annie bait no matter how many times Ryan said no. :rolleyes: Can Zach and Thorsten's smug portrayal PLEASE leave sooner rather than later?

Aidan is stupid. He just leaves Kendall with no warning? What if he got caught -- especially stealing a police laptop? :rolleyes: What would Kendall do then? Idiot. Aidiot.

David's all kinds of awesome, while Jake is all kinds of awful.

I couldn't agree with you more. If they insist on having Emma the Holy Grail drive this story, it would have a little more muscle to it if they had at least recast her with a stronger actress. As many Broadway Babies in New York, they couldn't find an actress with a tad bit more experience? It's like this little girl knows that this is all pretend, so she's just going through the motions because she doesn't "get it" yet. She goes to extremes. She's either into it or she's not -- and when she's into it, she screams at the top of her lungs, and when she's not, she mumbles and looks bored.

That's a big problem with this show. There's too much ambiguity. This is a soap, not high art. I hope Pratt is not thinking that he's some TV genius where "less is more" and having us interpret his crap.

For a split second, I thought Aidan was going to trick Kendall and that the cops were standing outside the church doors.

Erica/Annie were funny. I like how Annie was able to hold her own today. My favorite line was "always a bride, never a bridesmaid."

I couldn't bring myself to watch Ryan/Erica/Zach plotting today. The sooner Zach leaves, the better!

I thought the same thing regarding Aidan. He couldn't be bothered to tell her he'd be right back?

After Liza admitting that David's a human being yesterday, we went back to everyone painting him as a black-hearted villain. Jake & Amanda both need to STFU! I loved David's proposal to her at the end.

Lucy Merriam just can't handle this material. Pratt must have been drunk or high when he decided to make Emma the linchpin of this reveal!

David is one crazy mother, but I still love him, LOL! And while I think he's lost his mind with this latest "proposal" to Amanda, I think it's great that she's so stupid she'll more then likely take it. She can't get custody of the ONE kid she already has with David, what does she think is going to happen with TWO in the mix? :lol: I shouldn't take as much delight as I am at her suffering, but she's bringing it on herself.

LMAO! Because people don't make deals with each other to have children together. Single women who have sex with their male friends to get pregnant. Gay men who use their female friends as a surrogate. You're right. Sick, sick, sick! Beyond sick! Nastily sick! Amanda should have punched him right in the face for making such an unheard of, inhumane proposal! David should contemplate fatherhood the Noble Martin Men Way -- have unprotected sex with married women and impregnate them, or plot to steal babies of other men. Now that's class.

:rolleyes:

The only way he will set her free and grant her joint custody of their son is if she gives him another baby? Yeah that is sick. If he wants another baby so bad, then he needs to go have sex with a female friend (oh wait he doesnt have any) or go do it the gay way and get a surrogate (which he has money to do).

    • I’ve been enjoying the pace the show has taken recently. Things don’t languish as long as they have and if they are drawing something out, like Gio’s adoption, it’s hasn’t been as excruciating. Also, my nosey nature would appreciate less interaction with posters I have on ignore so I don’t have to click on “options”.

    • Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too. Hopefully, they locked them into four year contracts.
    • I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.
    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
