A new season is currently airing. I haven't viewed any of the episodes with any fidelity yet, but I see they're still using the regular cleaners/psychologists.

I did rewatch Shanna and Lynda a few days ago, and I'm still in awe of Shanna. This is my favorite exchange in Hoarders history, which is saying a lot because y'all know I love this show:

Shanna: "It's gonna be hard, but I'm gonna give up some stuff. I am going to go ahead and eat some of the contaminated food, and then the party's over, because I HAVE TO GET IT --"
Robin: "I don't understand..."
Shanna: "-- because when somebody goes on Intervention, they want to get high one last time. The party ends for me TOMORROW."
Robin: "How is eating contaminated food a party? I mean...???"
Shanna: "Why the fk does it matter? I've been eating poop for twelve years."
Robin: "You're getting a high out of thinking you have fecal matter in your food."
Shanna: "It's, it's my LAST, IT'S MY LAST BLAZE OF GLORY."

    • Yes, I am aware of the ballyhoo about Michigan. But, I still do not understand & I will  endeavor to explain why. Do some of us think it was a real place in Michigan, because not thing ever gave me such an idea. I thought we all knew it was a fictional location & I am positive that Irna meant it to be just that.  
    • It has come up in this thread before that early on it was specified that Another World was set in Bay City, Michigan, but somewhere along the line the references shifted to Illinois-ish.    I have tried and failed to find any specific clear reference to Michigan, although there have been some circumstantial details that suggest Bay City is not in Illinois. i notice that the AW Bible begins by describing the location as simply "not far from Oakdale", but things do change (the bible calls Pat Cynthia) and we can't take that as pure canon.    
    • At this point (and I've changed my tune several times), I'd fully rest the Cassadine family at this point.

    • The loooong pan around the room that ends in actual action with Maria and Edmund vs. just silently surveying the damage is very technically impressive. I don't think I've ever seen more than bits and pieces of this; my viewing was very spotty early on in '93/'94. I mostly remember the aftermath.
    • Disgusting how Gilly was written out. I'm glad I was not watching that travesty. Petronia Paley deserved better as well.   Interesting to me how so many viewers wanted Annie to succeed--the same way they were so invested in Marian/Brett.

      Oh how I wish Angela Lansbury would have called out Les Moonves and put him on blast.  
    • The first time I cried from a soap, Zane's death. I cried for 3 days.
    • Very happy to see GH hit #1 on Hulu! The show's been on fire and deserves the added eyeballs.
    • I really appreciated all the movement in today's episode.  It resonated with me that it felt like the sort of nervous energy that can surround a family after death. I want to point out the EJ scene.  I was riveted by his multi-layered performance. When he told Belle that he went to her because he loved her, and then saw that she was embarrassed by him, and rejected the part of her that was attracted to him.  It started to make even more sense why he would try to protect Johnny (who I still don't think shot him).  EJ feels like a pariah (although TBH, it wouldn't have hurt to bring Marlena some of that tea that everyone had been promising her all morning).  And he doesn't want to pass that along to his son by exposing him as the shooter.  It is interesting that we see none of those same concern between Kristen and lil'Rachel.
