Poor Starr. I was worried Todd was going to show her some Polaroids of his fun times with Tea.

This is beyond ridiculous.

Oh, wow, I completely forgot about that. Is it possible someone who is still at ABC all of these years later (is there anyone still left at ABC with that kind of power from back then? Wasn't his AMC stint even before Angela Shapiro was in charge?) keeps punishing him for that by foisting these increasingly odious scenarios on him whenever they bring him back to OLTL? The irony is he's not under contract now, so he could just walk away legally the second they say to him, "So, after you've electro-shocked your daughter, you're going to talk to God and have an epiphany, and then you're going to climb into bed with her..." but it could be that he needs the money a lot more now, after ten years of being blacklisted (for the most part). It does seem like it's a fight to bring him back - both times they seemed to be hinting at his return for a long time, and this time especially it's been years of foreshadowing that Mitch is Rex's father - and then it ended up devolving into this creepy, incestuous, sci-fi/horror mess.

I've already broken a self-imposed boycott of this show (after only missing one episode) when I read about Roxy's scenes, but in my defense I watched those scenes on YouTube and did my best to fast forward through (just about) everything else. Anyway, I did love those scenes, and I have to say I don't think it's ridiculous that they're friends. Kyle saved Roxy's grandson (without Roxy having to admit who the donor was) and she's certainly pulled enough scams herself that I don't think she'd hold a grudge for long just because he tried to blackmail her later on when he was between a rock and a hard place. Two outsiders who've made plenty of mistakes but have never raped or murdered or tortured anyone and just want to love and be loved showing some compassion for each other is the kind of thing that sometimes still happens on this show that isn't ridiculous, IMO. It's just too bad that for every scene like that we seemed doomed to get at least 10 scenes of rapist fathers bonding with/victimizing their daughters.

Did they show the ECT?

Today's show was really good, minus the Todd/Starr and John/Natalie scenes.

I was pleasantly surprised that Kelly was actually in the whole episode, because I expecting her return to be a cliffhanger.

I hate Rex. So now because Stacy isn't carrying his baby, he doesn't care that a pregnant woman is caught in a blizzard? What gives Rex the right to attack Schuyler like that??, I hope it comes out really soon that Schuyler didn't have sex with Stacy, and I hope Gigi doesn't hold it against him, because I only like Gigi when she's with Schuyler.

I loved Kim's line about the guys telling the girls to go home because their chicks. I always feel like that men on

Soaps never wants the girls to go with the guys on "adventures" and it bugs the crap out of me!

Gigi noticed something wrong with the baby so she just left in the middle of the night even though a snowstorm had just passed. The baby is premature and she took the child out in the freezing temperature when it doesnt have a coat or any clothes; just wrapped in a blanket. She is walking bc she cant drive and lets not forget she's on a mountain. Where the hell is she going to go with the baby? This makes NO sense but then again why should I be surprised?

I was thinking the same thing, but when watching Soaps I've learned to suspend my disbelief. Also, Gigi isn't the smarted woman in Landview.

Well, I thought this week was better than last week. I still has a mostly "entertaining cause it's bad" aspect. I'm interested in what happens to the guppy, I mean Sierra Rose, is about the openly thing I'm interested in. Hopefully she eventually ends up with Fish and Kyle. The rest of the show, I could really care less about.

Except, I loved seeing Kelly and Andriana today, even it was just talking over coffee about the events that happened over the last few months. Highlight of the week for me and hopefully the story is good. Kelly is the only other thing that's of interest to me this month.

I think making Mitch someone who believed his own preaching was a mistake. He was far better as a huckster. The way he is now he has too much power and too much insanity. That does not work on a day to day basis.

I think that's one of the major problems with Mitch's return this go around, he's too evil, too powerful.

I liked GiGi and Stacy's scenes this week. I'm a sucker for reconciliation stories so I liked it when they grabbed hands and I'm glad Stacy was going to confess. I just wish she had gotten the chance to go through with it.

I'm also liking Kim a lot. TPTB were smart in giving her some redeeming qualities almost from the start. Kim's loyalty and love for Stacy made her a viable character, while the Stacy character has failed because she didn't have that one person she had real, unselfish feelings for (until now).

I liked John and Natalie's scenes even though I'm not real big on McPain.

Scott Clifton was so over the top in those fight scenes. The expressions he was making had me cracking up. I like Schuyler and GiGi as a couple though.

Poor Charlie. :(

Rex is a jerk, a BIG FAT jerk!

Poor Charlie, but I am so glad that Viki heard from him that he was the one that shot Jessica, now I so cannot wait until Monday. I truly hope that Viki can forgive Charlie, I love them!

Really good scenes with Viki, Clint and Brody. I feel bad for Brody, he really does love Jessica.

I kind of feel that Kim's relationship with Stacy is unhealthy and has caused Stacy even more problems. I was hoping they would move away from this with Kim.

When Stacy dies and she goes off on people I hope they will tell her she is probably more to blame than anyone, aside from Stacy herself.

I hope Viki forgives Charlie. I'm sure she will. I would also like to see them have a decent story which isn't about peril but I know that probably won't happen.

I would love to see a more lighthearted storyline for these two, it's time that they had some happiness and fun.

Another day where I can just skip and not miss a thing..<_<

I can care less about Rachel/Greg.

I like Greg a lot but I can do without Rachel! She brings nothing to the table and is not interesting! I feel like they can and should be doing other more dynamic things with Greg WITHOUT Rachel being around. Maybe Greg can be a doctor by day and secretly work as a sexy male stripper by night. LOL!
