Rick looks exhausted and sick.

Best Michonne episode. She really is nice person albeit damaged like the rest of them.

I hope that Morgan finds them one day when he is better.

Oh no, the poor guy was eaten alive. They coldly stop to take his backpack. Wow, talk about harsh!

Wow, next week, Rick and Phillip finally meet.

I loved this episode lots of character development for Michonne and Morgan.

Really good eppy, especially for Michonne!

I'm with you, Ann. I hope Morgan finds his way to the group one day.

The Hart of Dixie guy has the same thought that I did that Rick was talking about himself when he said you have to come back.

Aisha just commented on Lenny's acting. He is so awesome!

Yep, Aisha got that right about Lennie's acting. He is a major talent. He has a series coming up on either FX, I think.

I cannot believe that Chris Hardwick is making some deep points. He is so right that the moment where they were driving away and saw Morgan burning the bodies was very beautiful and poignant.

LOL! This Hart of Dixie guy is so funny. He is clearly a real fan. He is right to be worry about Michonne dying since she was opening up.

Awww, farewell to Backpack guy!

Chit, funny, but cold. I cannot believe that guy could not find a car somewhere.

Who is this Hart of Dixie guy? He is really deep, I am impressed. His name is Scott.

Aisha is really great tonight. I love her thoughts.

This is one of the best episodes of Talking Dead!

Lennie James!

Andy!

I did like Michonne telling Rick that she knows that he sees things and that she saw her dead fiancee.

Carl's apology to Morgan was cool.

Ann, is it a spoiler to say that Morgan will be in another eppy? Not sure which, but I was looking him up on IMDB and he was listed for another eppy this season.

Yep, it is a spoiler, but a good one unless he ends up dead. I am watching the previews and short clips on Talking Dead so I am not completely spoiler free, just not going any further looking for more spoilers.

Right, Aisha is Lana from Archer! I love Archer.

Eeee, they finally meet! Kill him, Rick!

I'm spoiler free as well, and I never expected to see it when reading up on LJ.

Really good guests tonight!

Scott Porter and Aisha Tyler along with Yvette Brown were the best guests yet on Talking Dead. Tonight's episode was really good. I kind of want to re-watch TWD now, but I already hyper as hell.

One of the best shows of TWD! So glad Morgan returned and sad about his son.

As for the hitchhiker, can't trust anyone.

The guy that plays Morgan is a very busy actor, they tried to get him on last season, but couldn't work it out. I bet u see him once more.

Another impressive Chris Hardwick moment from Talking Dead, is when they came back from Lennie's interview and Chris said that some people were surprised that he was British. Chris, then, went on to praise Lenny's work, mentioning his excellent performance in Snatch. I had no idea that Chris had that kind of depth. Gave me a new perspective on him.

Girl, check out his Nerdist podcast.

CH is amazing. He knows so much and his interviews are always amazing.

ITA!

I also loved Retta.

I have tickets to the finale talking dead but am having a hard time finding someone to go with me! Hopefully I can get it off work though.

DAYS: December 2025 Discussion Thread

God, do I agree with this. Stephanie just doesn't cut it as a lead carrying this much story.
DAYS has all the elements to being good, but the truth is, it's not. Cwikly and Ford are better than Ron C, but that doesn't mean much when they're still not what I'd call solid. They aren't giving me anything to be excited about, and it feels like everything is on low simmer.

R.I.P.: Anthony Geary has passed away

Awful news. I've certainly said my fair share about Luke and the Eckerts on here over the years, but when he was on and committed, there was never anybody better. He was a huge part of growing up watching GH in the 90s and 2000s.
His relationships with Laura, Bobbie, Robert, and Lucky will get most of the attention, but I want to mention how good he was with a lot of the rest of the cast in that era. His relationships with Tony, Lucy, Felicia, Tiffany, Sonny, Carly, Nikolas, Alexis, Tracy- all so different, unique, and you really felt the connections.
Monica, Luke, Robert, Rick, and Lesley in one year is so much loss. Add in Bobbie, Alan, Nikolas, Sean, and Epiphany in the past couple of years and it's almost unfathomable.

R.I.P.: Anthony Geary has passed away

I agree with this. You can see it in her shows, there is always movement. Those talking head scenes were walking around the nurses station, stopping at the counter at Kelly’s, etc. Scenes in the Webber home often begin or end with someone coming down the stairs, or headed to the door. I am sure Geary had run into plenty of issues where staging in a more traditional way hindered what he wanted to do and could seem stifling. Monty allowed improvisation, and spontaneity to be encouraged in rehearsals.
As a kid I always noticed that the ABC soaps of that era just felt more modern. When I watch old episodes now, the ABC shows still stand out that way. They took risks. Now I am not saying I think everything they did was fantastic- they had plenty of flops and bad ideas.

R.I.P.: Anthony Geary has passed away

Her statement did not disappoint. They both spoke about that deep connection, that they didn’t share with anybody else. Even when Tony was fully committed to not ever playing Luke & Laura again, he still spoke about that connection as performers with some reverence.
I am not shocked they didn’t speak because that was their way even before his final exit. When they met to discuss returning in 1993 they had only seen each other a couple of times since their earlier run. That return was one of the handful of soap icon returns after being gone for a long time that fully worked. I have said this before but Monty, Marland, and PFS, with Geary and Francis of course, made such grounded characters with real internal lives that they could go and save the world, and also still fit in closer to reality in grittier material later under Labine, Guza, and Riche.
We saw Luke slowly morphed into a bitter and cynical man who eschewed connection with others. I had no problem with what Geary did with Luke’s characterization. Luke after Laura probably would self destruct. What I had issue with was Geary’s insistence that this was always the Luke he played. It very much was not, we saw it as it aired, the good and the bad before his revisionist history.
Almost every soap I watched had an iconoclastic character who challenged the other people in their communities. Soaps are so bland now and don’t really do these types of characters anymore.
Thanks everybody who has been posting tributes, I don’t use Twitter anymore so this is the only place I will see them!

Why not? Tamara Tunie would play the hell out of that story AND maybe land BTG their first major Emmy nomination in the process.

Obviously, we'll never know exactly what Geary meant, but I think what Gloria Monty hated was the fact that most soaps at that time seem confined to "talking heads" regurgitating the same exposition over coffee inside various living rooms and kitchens. Monty wanted soaps to be more active, arguing that housewives and other viewers would be forced to put down their laundry or whatever and actually pay attention.

LOL!!
In the past, I've speculated that Empire Valley was supposed to be a story about phony real estate developers bilking people, before it got changed into what made it on air.
I would LOVE for someone to interview Peter Dunne - not just about Empire Valley, but about his time on KL (and DALLAS) in general. I feel like he would have a ton of great writing advice to share.

in total agreement! over the years, i’ve written thousands of words going into all the gory details — particularly regarding ‘as the world turns.’
always wished i could have asked him about the ‘i hate soap opera’ comments. was he being funny, sarcastic, ironic? would have loved to heard the specifics of what he — and gloria monty — hated. and what did he think about the impact on the soap genre.
