I wouldnt say they are dumbing Joey down bc he was pretty dumb the last time he was on contract in town. Rememebr how foolish he was with Jen? That was him being stupid falling for another slutty blonde. This writing is consistent with his writing since 2003. Too bad they arent looking to when he was a much better character

I completely agree. It's not bad all all. I don't even think Joey's been "dummed" down. Give me a break. I guess everyone knows automatically when someone is lying to them and they've never ever been misled........okay

I'm just going to wait to see how this actually plays out.

So I watched yesterday and liked the show....

It had actors I am familiar with...Zimmer, Vandorn, Bailey Smith, Nu Joey...and even awful Terri Conn

I thought Zimmer and Jerry were great. I enjoyed their scenes. The BoClint stuff was the best. I thought it was a nice cliffhanger. Terri Conn is still acting like Katie...that's all I see when I watch her on screen.

Fumero always looking great....

Nu Joey..mmmmmm..was hot shirtless the other day

And Cutter..mmmmmmm....hot chest......I like Cutter...lol

But of course Ford has to be connected to every story....lame

I agree they were very good. I liked that Echo (of all people!) was the one to appeal to Clint's conscience. The scene of Clint looking at himself in the mirror with Bo suddenly appearing in the reflection worked on so many levels. It said more than pages of dialogue could.

    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
    • The transition from Neal to Adam was very abrupt, and to be honest my theory is that the character of Neal was designed so that we think he is super shady but then it turns out that he was on the side of good all along so Neal could have seamlessly become a hero of the BCPD with no need for Adam. I don't know whether Robert Lupone was hired on a short contract or if he was fired from a longer-term contract because they decided they wanted someone who was more of a leading man type, but I can imagine a scenario where Charles Grant did both the undercover Egyptian treasure/flirt with Victoria and the straighter-arrow day to day police investigation. But in my imagined scenario the MJ prostitution plotline probably doesn't exist and instead he probably continues a relationship with Victoria. The story seems very odd to me. I assume that David Canary would have been included only because a plotline where Steve is going to Finland in which only Rachel is seen in actual Finland seems unlikely. The synopses explicitly mention that Alice can't go with Steve but would whoever was playing Alice at that time have had the kind of clout to get the remote cancelled? It also strikes me as unlikely that production would have approved the expensive location shoot and *then* cancelled it only because of jealousy. It seems more likely that they rejected it because of the expense but then the jealousy part got added to the gossip speculatively, possibly because while it was being worked out they justified not including more castmembers because of the expense.
