Wow, that sounds bad. I guess they want to marginalize Jill. Why can't Jill and Kay battle as equals? Why does Jill have to be runt, the one no one loves or sides with?

They see Jill as a pathetic old bag who can exist only to make others look better by comparison. Her age makes her intolerable to the men who run this show. As they use Katherine as a tool, they use Jill the same way, only Jill is the anti-figure, the loser who has been such a burden to poor, poor Billy and Katherine and so many others. At best, they want us to pity Jill, and that's on a good day.

As for it being believable that Jill would "schtup" Nichols, I doubt that's why he was cast. He will probably be peddled with the usual bimbos among the younger cast. Sharon, Phyllis, etc.

He's pretty hot stuff. I've never watched him in action, but he's got GREAT camera presence and awesome SWAGGER.

That will come in handy, since the show is now all about empty macho posturing. But if he ever wants to be anything more than that they will cut him down to size soon enough.

Make no mistake, Nichols is a name star with a sizeable following, and obvously hot sexual presence as well as acting talent. He has been hired to keep Braeden reigned in.

I wonder how long that will last. Victor seems to be a god to many at this show.

If he really is the new Victor, then Jill truly is doomed, considering the nasty way these awful writers have Victor treat her.

Exactly.

It's shameful how badly reduced Jill has been under this writing team.

I wonder if Arthur is still supposed to be Tucker's dad as he was Jill's. I have to say my jaw dropped to floor when he fired everyone - that was a cool/cruel joke. Nichols is doing a really good job. It's fun to see everyone rallying to Kay's aid. But they have really upped the campy dialogue - everyone talks like headlines from SOD - "this unholy alliance" and " I'll destroy in a minute what you took a lifetime to build" - but I'm a sucker for cheesy dialogue so i'm not complaining.

I'm sure it's no surprise that I'm enjoying this show immensely right now. I just hope that they do something with this wretched Daisy character soon. She reminds me of a pot-head party-girl not a dangerous psycho. I would actually have preferred Crystal Hunt in this role.

This Daisy/Ryder SL is the WORST THING IN THE UNIVERSE. Now, in tomorrow's previews Hayley Erin is trying to act DRUNK and slutty? PLEASE. The Lauren/Michael fight was well acted, but it's in the middle of the stupidest SL ever! Apparently Maria is now plagarizing Esther Shapiro? WTF?!!

+1

CANE!!!!! that self-righteous SOB walks in and tells Jill, "Why didn't you tell me you were sleeping with him?" She should have shot back... "Why didn't YOU tell me my SON was still alive!" After all he's pulled, he's got alot of nerve to act all high and mighty with her like that! That BASTARD. And I'd like to know one thing, can't Rauch get SOMEONE to come in and CLEAN THE SETS?!! The glass shelves in the athletic club are COVERED in dust, and even I can see it on my 27 inch standard def TV, I can only imagine what it looks like on a big screen high def.

Cane is the most useless and out of place character EVER.

Why they continue to force this smug nobody down our throats is beyond me.

But again, poor Jill has to be the one sacrificed for these sh!tty stories. F.uck this awful writing team, seriously.

I started a reply, but I'll take it to Potpourri so that Toups doesn't have a stroke about spoilers, :lol:

Since when are speculative romances considered spoilers. The original reply might have been based on a preview but all the responses could have been openly discussed.

Because all the female viewers get moist in the bloomers over Goddard, that's why.

It's very said if that's the only reason he's still on this show, given how out of place he continues to be.

Jill and Katherine need to disown this pest, he's NOT family.

Ew.

They look SO stupid for hating Tucker but coddling him.

Not with his nasty hair.

SN was awesome today, he didn't disappoint at all. Presence and swagger - that's SN for you. And it was so great seeing him in a dark suit again! That made me smile. "I'm going to dismantle what you took a lifetime to build." Loving Stefan Tucker Cassadine and I can't wait to see more. :D
