TPTB keep throwing him at women in hopes of making a supercouple.

Not going to happen.

We'll never know because these writers keep changing direction. They had something with Chilly, but they decided to dump them for Billy/Mac. If they'd just pick a direction and go with it, I think they could have a successful couple. The days of true supercouples are over, imo, but I think Billy could most likely have a successful pairing in Chloe, Heather or Victoria, if these writers weren't so incompetent.

It's just shocking to me how things have fallen apart over the last 12 months or so. I remember just last March/April many people were so enthusiastic about this show. There were tons of posts and now only the die hard faithful remain.

It wouldn't work.

The minute TPTB DO stick with a pairing they ruin it with substandard writing & extreme propping plus Daytime doesn't do long term couples anymore it's build up & break up.

Had TPTB gone with Billy/Heather she would have immediately lost her independence cause Maria doesn't do feminism & though Miller shares chemistry with Heinle/Hendrickson both characters have been too damaged as individual characters to work in relationships.

Maria can't pace stories or write for a balanced canvas.

Look at how horrible she handled the Braeden/MTS exit.

Had she strengthened the half of the canvas she didn't write for the Braeden/MTS transition/Tucker introduction wouldn't have been so horribly rushed.

One good thing about tomorrow's show, no Daisy. To bad the rest isn't worth discussing either.

They never made an effort to establish any actual relationship for Billy and most of these women. It's always all about how funny and goofy Billy is and what a stud he is and can he change but don't you secretly love him because he won't change? There was a lot of talk about how Billy/Chloe didn't have a chance because of Mac, but they never had a relationship even before then. He avoided her, he called her a stalker, he reluctantly married her, he used her for sex and as a babysitter while he was busy with Sharon.

They have no idea how to write for Billy or for Chloe. I don't think Liz Hendrickson is good at romantic pairings, I think she is better at comedy and being a pot-stirrer. Miller just seems to be in his own world most of the time, and having interest in the character is pointless because as the non-aftermath of the NYE episode shows, he never changes.

Patty is STILL on the show? Um why? Where can they possibly go with her. She should have been dropped when Colleen got killed

I'd say she's going to escape and either kill or kidnap Emily.

How the hell is Patty gonna get out of there and to the church in time for "the switch"? Patty and Emily both have a different hair color.

And there's no way Emily could have her hair dyed blonde before Patty left the hotel nuthouse.

This show is just BAD!

Do you think it will happen that soon? I was thinking more like May sweeps so that Emily would be further along in her pregnancy. Guess we'll see.

Jesus, I thought it would all come to a head during the wedding. That the truth would be revealed.

You mean to tell me they plan on dragging this inanity out to May sweeps?! :rolleyes:

Emily is pregnant?

She keeps hinting at this exciting gift she's going to give Jack at their wedding and she's told Chloe and Ashley about and how her dress might need to be let out.

I have no idea what the plan is. This is just idol speculation on my part. Seems like we would have heard about it if it was happening for Feb sweeps and I haven't heard anything, but I pretty much only read spoilers here.

Have we heard anything about why they were celebrating St. Patrick's Day a few days ago?

The sign said 29 days until St. Patrick's (or something like that). I was hoping that wasn't supposed to be an airport in Ireland, it looked so tacky.
