Idenity Crisis would be a more apt name for this show!

We have Amanda-as-Emily and Emily-as-Rebcca, Tyler who wants to either be with or be Daniel, Nolan who seems to want a life like Jack's and now Ashley, who after last nights "A life like yours is what i Always wanted" to Amanda-as-Emily easily sets her up to jock on her life.

And i love it. I also love that at any point any of the above can hook up with each other and i would totally buy it.

Right and there's definitely hinted a lesbian Single White Female vibe with "Amanda" for Emily...

That was one thing in the episode I wasn't totally sold on--Jack has been shown as such an upstanding guy--would he really suddenly be into slathering sunscreen on a random, nameless, woman? I mean--it's not completely unbelieveable but...

WOW... just WOW. I was amazed at the intricacy and brillliance of this writing. First of all... Tyler is a little weasel, he effing ROLLED Nolan? So many things going on this episode, Lydia hiding the pills in her jaw and getting Conrad to bust her from the house is great. You can tell Victoria is DYING to know where Conrad is hiding her. Considering where Frank's phone was found, I see an arrest in Conrad's future. How underhanded for little Declan to take Victoria's 100,000$ and still see Charlotte. I don't think that boy knows what he's dealing with, he's WAY over his head... but other distractions for Victoria just may save his butt. Nolan was so smooth cleaning out Tyler's throat just as Ashley walked in. Briliantly played, and I loved Ashley dropping her drink. That real Emily is a triflin bitch, I hate her guts. And poor Jack, snookered by that tramp. I'm really curious as to what part the Japanese Man plays is Amanda's past, but the comment about the vipers was GOLD.

She negotiated him down to $25,000 LMAO! He should have countered for 50K, But it kind of sounded like playing her mother was Charlotte's idea. Either way, it was slightly naive on Declan and Charlotte's part.

Wow! Faux Amanda has some nerve. I can't believe Jack didn't know it wasn't really her. Sammy will.

Amanda can go fcking die. Her and Jack's pseudo-fairy tale nonsense was so out of place all episode long. I wanted their boat to capsize. Jack is an idiot. Is he REALLY still jonesing over a little girl he met when he was a kid? Damn. He even introduced her as "an old close friend." If she was that close, you'd realize it wasn't really her, you moron. I even like his little grimy brother better than him.

Victoria/Conrad/Lydia is pure GOLD. Conrad is a riot when he gets some bitchiness in him! Love the way these three interact with each other, and Victoria continues to be the boss of the entire corporation.

My beautiful, flawless Daniel :( So many people playing him. When it all falls down, he should just dust himself off and start anew in Louisiana, where he can meet a 21-year-old college student who enjoys watching old episodes of soaps on YouTube. I'm still down with Emily/Daniel, but I'm gonna need for her to bring him into the plan soon. He's obviously very in to her, and she needs to see that he can be trusted.

Nolan and Tyler lmao I can't believe they're letting Tyler's wormy ass get under their skin. I don't see Ashley really reacting to catching them kissing. As much as she wants to be a bad bad bitch, she just seems to be all talk and no action. Get it together, girl!

    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago that perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. Since we hardly know anything about Leslie's childhood background. In addition, Leslie said she grew up listening to The Articulettes….
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

    • I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980. 
    • terrible at using forums and inserting photos, but jake in another world had a drag persona named doris, anyone know the episode or year? http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/ffad19.jpg
    • Yes, I am familiar with Fred Silverman. Agree, the 90 minute AW a very poor decision by Silverman. I think Silverman was behind the decision to go with Texas.
    • Thanks -- you're doing God's work The Gio reveal was everything I hoped for and more. GH got it right. Head to toe, GM is a stunning physical specimen.
