Brot seems lonely without Natalia next to him in the opening credits.

I know they traditionally do the full year of cast members, but noticing Lee Meriwether's name in the scroll surprised me for some reason. She hasn't been on since the anniversary in January, right? I guess RM was in there too, half paying attention. And for Christmas credits they could have at least wrapped a cheesy holly wreath around the edges of the screen. :P

That kid Jake was dealing with was cute. That's Frankie and Simone's baby.

Sitting here watching, and I'm disappointed....I really like the opening, but I hate how abruptly it comes on. With the way it starts now it would be perfect if a vamp type melody lead into it again.

Grinchlee is all kinds of bitchy in this episode and I'm loving it...don't really agree with her, but I love how she's been acting lately!!

Yeah, I've said the same thing before, there are very simple, inexpensive tweaks these shows could do to enhance the viewing experience. The vamp just as much as the falling pictures became an iconic part of the AMC hour, it was a shot of adrenalinen for the viewer ("Uh-oh, here we go y'all..."). They've been doing the abrupt start for the opening for quite a while now and it's not my favorite stylistic choice. Abrupt only works for something like the blaring sax of the classic B&B opening.

    • Right. Literally for decades, soaps mesmerized their audiences with tales of romance, family conflict, class struggles, and recognizable interpersonal-relationship sagas. We didn't need relentless, heavy violence. We didn't need clones, mad scientists, extra-terrestrials and demon possessions. We didn't need gaggles of plastic himbos and bimbos pushing beloved vets off-screen. We only needed to see people whom we cared about, and the intelligent, moving progression of their lives. Flashy sets, gaudy gimmicks, and high-falutin' hairdos be damned. The characters and the words were important.
    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
