The only good thing about a Sharon/Adam pairing is that Sharon will be away from Nick. This Adam is a hero is a load crap. If this is just step one in million in redeeming Adam than that's better than saving faith "twice" is suppose to excuse him for all his horrible behavior.

It seems like they are going the way of a Tucker/Ashley/Diane triangle with Phyllis making Diane look like the anti-Christ.

Cane giving JT CPR is probably the closest thing to a gay kiss this show will have.

If I didn't hate Cane enough already, I sure do now for saving that prick.

Christel Kahlil, sit your milk chocolate ass down and stop trying to be a dramatic actress...It ain't workin hun. Time to head back to disney sitcoms.

Maura West is love. But I miss Susan Walters. Wish another soap would snatch her up.

Is it sad that Tucker looked more excited when his window exploded then while he was in bed with Diane? He was totally uninvolved in his scenes with Diane. He just doesn't have chemistry with either of the women they're pushing him toward. I think they should just make him gay and put him in a story with Phillip.

Can't wait for the Meggie/Murphy stuff tomorrow.

I am so not used to having a weekly thread....

The disaster story was low-key, to say the least. Kinda laughed at JT in that glaring white room. Of course, that's the only way to see he can grow chin hair, but I digress.

Not really thrilled with the Tucker/Diane/Ash story---no doubt the pipsqueak Naked Air-ness will end up getting the best of Diane...but I'd rather Diane slept with Tuck than Jack.

I've always thought Stephen Nichols was gay. The only time I've EVER seen him have chemistry with any woman was in his hey day with Mary Beth Evans on DAYS. The redux on GH was incredibly lackluster so it's no surprise not to see him click with any of his female co stars.

If this was a show which knew how to do passion or romance, then Stephen Nichols might have a chance. Instead Tucker seems to exist solely to fulfill the usual misogynist fantasies or certain writers and producers at the show. This is the second time they have used Tucker to get off on the idea of big manly men dumping women on the curb after using them for sex. I'm sure they will also use him again at some point for the fantasy that forced sex is hot.

Romance on this show seems to only mean how can a woman be degraded and humiliated to prove a man's worthiness? The latest being Sharon going on about her "hero", who told her her baby died from deformities.

    • Well, the whole Doug Cummings story was a bit of a reference to the Willows...(gothic, dead wife, crazy assistant, Dream's End vs. Willows.)  While I am glad he came over to ATWT, I would have loved what he could do with GL at the time.  Bea Reardon was still on the canvas but not used, so he could have brought Lisa Brown back as Nola...(though getting past the Quolas would have been hard as she should have come back alone..) and built the Reardon's back up..He would have loved writing for Alex, and maybe brought Mike back to rebuild the Bauers and also he would be on the spot to write Bert's death. He could have reignited Vanessa and woken her up from her "I'm a Lewis," coma and  I do wonder what he would have done with Reva?
    • Of all the triangles Rauch and Co. were into...I can't believe they never revisited Harley and Jarsh. Well, I know its because they have to have two women fighting over one man and one woman is evil, but would have been cool to have a no villain triangle...(and saved us from Gush...) And it would have driven the Java nuts and Pharley nuts crazy!!!
    • Totally agree. AL isn’t suited to Summer written this way (which is, truthfully, in character). HK wasn’t credible in the boss-bitch moments, which AL plays more easily.
    • Welcome back, Tripp

      I’m glad Tripp is back in Salem and I like that he’s planning on being more assertive. He doesn’t deserve to get hurt again. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if some people in the Soap Universe are gonna be mad about his lines today Hopefully, we get some scenes of Johnny/Tripp and Wendy/Chanel. There haven’t been that many lately and this storyline definitely needs them. I think weaving Talia into it would be a good idea as well. She needs a new man now that the Colin storyline is over.  Rafe is still dumb. There really are no security cameras at that hospital that could have shown that Colin didn’t take Abe?? Speaking of Abe, his storyline is total ff material. James Reynolds deserves so much better than this. 
    • I've been rewatching early SATC (am mid-season 2), and am enjoying the mid-90s indie film vibe of the show at that time. It was a bit tougher and grittier but it also showed some of the growing wealth of the city at that time. SATC was always about pecking order and jostling for a better position, but on the romantic frontlines. I also enjoyed the Bad Dating SLs LOL. I understand why it went the fairytale-ish route. Part of this mirrored the evolution of the city itself, as Manhattan became more moneyed and, dare I say, unaffordable. It was a glamorous city that many aspired to live in and conquer against the odds. Part of it was also, as the show progressed, our own growing investment in the main cast and their SLs. Hence less standalone episodes and more a continuing soapy story of romantic relationships. IMO, this was a fairly organic evolution.
