It's not that he bashes Marissa but his comments are the opposite of what AMC is trying to convey. For example that JR is no longer in love with Marissa and that the best person for JR is Annie. That JR connects with women through sex and physical desire (two traits that JR and Marissa has never been about). This was in SID.

In SOD a couple of weeks ago JY said that he hated Annie's ending and he went to the writers asking for scenes (complete with flashbacks)showing JR's torment and guilt over what happened with Annie and unless that is shown onscreen, JR would never be able to move past it.

He's selling JR and Annie and not JR and Marissa while SG is doing the exact opposite in her interviews.

JY has also unofficially told people (on events etc) that he's not very fond of the JR and Marissa pairing and that he didn't like how AMC had JR act so passive when Marissa went for full custody of AJ.

That still bothers me. I realize that he was sick and scared and zen and all but bringing Marissa into AJ's life like that is no better than the women who we bash for meeting guys online and moving them in with their children two months later. It just looks "lovelier" here. Yes, Marissa is Babe's sister, but she might as well be a stranger, she wasn't raised with these people. No reason why she couldn't have had a healthy aunt relationship with this kid, it was just too much too soon with the rushed creation of a parent/child relationship.

Meanwhile, I was sure Marissa and Bianca were going to kiss rolling around in the snow. Are there set in stone spoilers about their relationship or are we going to get the

rug pulled out from under this?

Here's the thing and I agree, unfortunately the wounds that will be licked by Amanda are gonna be b/c of Marissa b/c they are setting up Marissa/Binx by having her broken by JR failing her again. Whatevs. ...anyway while this is going on Cara gets in danger w/ Ricky b/c he's Zach's killer, Jake gets protective, ignores Amanda who's working for JR, who will have an ONS.

To people that like Marissa/Bianca, really? I feel sorry for CBL and JY.

Ex. JR stood next to Amanda, JY wasn't even trying and you could feel some sexual tension between the characters when she asked if he wanted her to bid on him. On the other hand we have Snatchalie pt. deux, who is written woman that he ~wants back. Not one bit of chemistry. Nothing, remember that sexual fantasy Annie dreamed up, not even there. She has no sex appeal whatsoever, and that's what makes a lesbian pairing intriguing, and they are attempting to do it w/ that character? the sex appeal of a stiff board. Opal would be more sexy than her. These Careys, how are they this important to be ruining couples and ruining Kanes & Chandlers.:lol:

Marley we have to thank Cath for talking to JY. I love that man even more than before, the fact MCE is gone and he still defends her character and loves her as a person. My future husband. :wub:

I doubt it. From what I gather they are pissed that Reese is getting trashed in this. I'll say they'll have a few cute scenes and then just fade out. CBL is just happy she has a s/l but even this is not appealing. Sucks Shannon Kane left and is temp. back and fourth via Brot.

The only time I can stand Bianca or Marissa is when they're together.

Kendall and Griffin are adorable.

Erica is clearly not walking out of the auction with Jackson. :lol: Between her over confidence, and her saying she'd be a little "late" for the auction, someone is clearly going to outbid her. Likely Krystal. Or maybe liza.

lol @ JR not being able to pronounce Cara's name right. "Car-uh". I think that might've been ad-libbed by Jacob Young, I noticed when JR was like "is it care-uh or car-uh?", he glanced over to the outside of the set. When CS/Amanda corrected him he said something like "whatever". LMAO

I loved the JR/Amanda scenes, but earlier in the ep when he was with Marissa? A complete travesty and I loathed JR so much in those scenes.

I enjoyed them today to! Finally the writers are giving Kendall more Kendall-like things to do. I love her "fact-finding" mission! lol. She's scheming and lying (not exactly in a malicious or sneaky way) to get what she wants and I love it. I'm looking forward to her and Griffin's date as well.

I'm glad the show added in that scene with Kendall at the piano thinking about Zach. These last two episodes, you'd think Kendall didn't have a husband who died a few months ago LOL because she's been acting so different and not thinking/talking about him at all, which I think is a GREAT thing but it's also good & necessary to have scenes of her thinking about Zach every so often I think. Finally AMC's starting to find balance with that. Kendall's slowly moving on but she'll never forget Zach.

    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
    • Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.
