ALL: Oprah-Are You The Biggest Soap Opera Fan?

He is? Really?! That just makes me all the sadder that Travis wasn't there for Bianca's coming out and everything since. Binks has always needed her father. Not her UncleDaddy Jack (who I love) but her father. Travis would be a really good part of the Kane-Montgomery extended family. Can you imagine what kind of hell he'd be handing Jack these days?

Don't pity him. He's drug free and still alive. I intend to drop ABC a letter asking them to bring him back. It won't change anything but regardless of how coked-up he was, MN's Dimitri was a million times better than anything Frons keeps trying to train us with.

So very true - I wish he were still around. Not sure why they decided to kill him offscreen, but it was 2000 - the same year that Bianca came out. I think that played into the whole storyline (reason Bianca came back to PV for good, right?). Also, I remember he was in heaven in 2001, welcoming Gillian in... but he also reached out to Bianca and Erica. So I guess they did the best they could?

I don't think it was worth killing Travis off just to bring Bianca to PV. They could have come up with something else.

I remember the scenes where Bianca was bereft in the park and GhostTravis was looking on. That was one of those little moments which made the horrific Gillian-shot-in-head story more bearable.

LOL, I mean, to each his own, I just don't see how anyone could hate on Chaka SuLu. :lol: I feel like all of her potentially annoying qualities* are so utterly harmless and endearing.

*Only one really, for always being so "on" (and fibbing about her beauty "management" :P ), but I think most of us are tickled by that.

I totally understand how someone could hate SuLu and especially Erica. I'm beyond tired of watching Erica act like a 17-year-old trying to figure out whether she wants to go to prom with the captain of the football team or the rebel in the leather jacket. but I Love Lucci. She's one of the hardest working soap actors ever, she's a promotion machine and she's shameless in a good way. She's perfectly aware of how silly this can all seem and she uses it. Of course, a lot of her popularity is due to luck, the luck of losing out on the Emmy year after year. She turned that into an asset. (Anybody else remember her Sweet & Low commercial?). Sure, when it comes to acting I'll take Debbi Morgan over her in a hot second but when it comes to knowing your brand and making the most of it, she's a tiny white Oprah.

Mark my words, she will end up with a show on OWN.

    • I do wonder if Bill will suffer any consequences from his part in all of this.   Ambyr is such a star. I love it when actors react in the background.    Kat, this ain't about you!   Go 'head, Martin vs Ted.

    • "On a shallow note" Martin gets all the booty from his Daddy, Ted is just as stacked as his son, LOL! I had to say it.
    • Lol! If Kat is going to do one thing, it's going to be give shade.   And of course, the Duprees would get into formation and team up. Sadly, I don't think they have anything on Silk Press Sheila.    Poor Nicole.   But loving it. I know I'm invested besides I'm seriously side-eying Vanessa/Doug cuz I want to get to the meat. And I love that every single beat is getting played.    Oooo Nosy Nurse!!!   OOOOHHHH so Silk Press Sheila and Nicole were preggers at the same time. And HA!!! The lawyer WAS Bill!  The acting is superb. Silk Press Sheila even toyed with Martin a little bit.   Ooooomg! Eva revealed.   Wait! Is it food posioning for Vanessa or is she with child?
    • Well, if you add that one caveat, oddly, it disqualifies Renee. Because she is one person who was both the planner (if you will) and also the "evil" revealer. Weird but that is THE difference.  And it's the only difference. But, sure, I think those words make it unique. THE REVEALER CONVINCES HER TARGET TO HOST THE EVENT. Right?  Well, if we nitpick The Revealer used her secret agent to convince their target to do this shindig. Yes. That's it. Because Leslie/Sheila/Sherry/Dana/Leslie/Mom didn't do it by herself. She HAD to have Eva doing her part.  Okay, run with that.  And, why not discuss it here? It's topical.     
    • Hahaha!!! Not Naomi being sure Chelesa ain't filming this time!!!   At last! Kat is proven right!!!   And hey, Nicole's Doctor friend, hey!!!   So far...this is giving.
    • Leslie having the nerve to show up at the Dupree House was pure insanity. Bill being revealed to be more ruthless than anyone would have thought was a good development. I have to imagine that will change Dani's view of wanting him back. The whole reveal was well done and Trisha Mann-Grant owned those scenes. That was most definitely material for an Emmy submission reel.
    • I agree, all the Guys Tux were nice. I like how they differ from each other and all stylish in a way. Awe, same. Can not believe I actually have enjoying a current daytime soap. Rewatching these episodes over the weekend as a jump back into Ryan's Hope and Santa Barbara. Agreed! Exciting times.

       And it was pretty dope we didn't know that tidbit before the reveal.
