While I'm in the minority, I really enjoyed today's episode.

Sorry to toot my own horn, but I just wanted to point out the fact that despite all my negativity (which understandably upsets many people), I can be positive sometimes.

Yay - Erica is back! "Erica Kane Best Sellers" - love it! Also love Opal and Sam and how happy she is

Easily the only watchable part yesterday!

So Zach killed Griffin? Ugh, I hope Zach and JR die together.

Even though Zach confessed, Ryan & Greenlee were madder at David.

Ok, the finale is 2 weeks from today... and we are subjected to this Zach/Ryan/Greenlee annoying-as-hell BS. It's killing me...softly.

Erica and Opal are today's only saving grace.

It's killing me too!

This David/Cara stuff is ridiculous. Now David is the one who saved Cara when she had cancer? ANd yes he knows her so well?

We've known that for about a month. Apparently, it was when she was older and Griffin was working for David. Her cancer returned and David found a doctor to treat her. Last month, Ryan discovered Cara's name on David's list of Orpheus patients and showed Griff, which led in part to Griff no longer working for him.

OMG that scene with Ryan and Jessie was hysterical

I could not hate Zach anymore if I tried. Even Ryan is likable

It just shows what an inept cop Jesse is that he couldn't stop Ryan from knocking him down and running away. If David did that, he would be charged with assaulting a police officer.

ICAM about Zach and Ryan. Hopefully, neither will join the internet version!

I'm going to call it already.....Griffin faked his death and teamed up with Zach (and possibly with Ryan and Greenlee) to scare David.

Yeah, it seems obvious and stupid for the promo to tease there's a "corpse" when it's all faked.

Ok this is stupid... Zach obviously is trying to make a point, and has teamed with Griffin. I just think their point is stupid. The whole thing doesn't make sense. I think Kendall and Zach should be grateful for David saving his life and just MOVE ON. Ryan had a great point about Leora the other day, and David does need to stop taunting people. He just needs to work with Angie to make this more legit and then everyone MOVE ON.

Zach wakes up after being dead, and all he cares about is making a point, all while treating his wife, friends, and kids like crap. Has he even had a scene with his kids yet? Have we even had a family scene with Zach, Kendall, Bianca, Erica, and the kids? This is just stupid.

You bring up several excellent points that sadly the show isn't addressing.

Maybe this storyline is punishment to anybody who liked any of the air-hoggers. A stupid, plot-driven story that made little to no sense from beginning to end played for the last 2-3 months of the show for their favorites.

It's definitely punishment for those of us who hated them!

I Want to know who to blame for Project Frankenstein

1 Was this something the prior writing team planned out

2. Did Broderick and Agnes concoct this

3. Did PP seeing how "great" the campy [!@#$%^&*] has worked on OLTL force this story on them

I hope Broderick and Agnes discuss the network ending after the show is off ABC to so we can learn just how much of this they came up with. It seemed to start after the prior writing team had left. My best guess is they wanted to end the show by bringing back a bunch of "dead" characters and reuniting them with their loved ones, explaining that David had saved them all. Then when the show was picked up by Prospect Park, that story had to change. I wonder if Frons had a hand in any of this since it feels like his stuff.

I hope that isn't the last we see of Opal.

I don't understand at all what Ryan/Greenlee/Zach/Griffin are trying to accomplish.

I hope it's not the last time we see her too!

Does anyone get what David meant when he told Erica he was trying to help her by sending her on the wild goose chase to LA? Could he be behind the movie offer?

F U Zach Slater. F U Ryan Lavery. Long live Griffin

Despite the PO stupidity, the show wasnt too bad.

Ugh, I really cant stand John O'Hurley. Was this his only episode? I sure hope so

Griff turned on David he can rot with the rest of Pine Valley. David removing his phone from his ear instead of hanging up on Erica ROFL!

LMFAO, yes that was great. I have no idea what the whole conversation was ultimately about, but I think David is going to be saving someone soon...could be La Kane herself this time.

I would have hung up on her, and I love her. He must really have something up his sleeve to have dealt with that.

Scenes like that make me love VI even more. It's the perfect example of what I consider the difference between humor and comedy. VI plays it as humor, Darnell or MEK (as much as I love them) would have played that as comedy.

I actually didn't mind John O'Hurley for once. (So far) Kit Sterling isn't the over-the-top caricature I was expecting.

I think JV finally found a role he's suited for: playing a stiff, given how wooden he is....... Too bad Griffin isn't really dead

I understand Amanda wanting a child, but her whining about it for weeks is annoying.

I thought most of the show Friday was pretty good...aside from one ..one-note idiot barking orders incoherently like the dog he is.

David was spectacular as always.

Ryan knocking Jesse over and running his little ass off was a lol moment. BTW ....Um why would he have to do that?? Just say "NO Jesse I don't want to go to the station with you". Was he under arrest again?? That was a bit of a WTF for me...but it made me laugh so oh well.

Opal & Sam make me smile. They are nice together. Loved their scenes with Erica.....wish we could get some of just the two of them. Their scenes earlier in the week with Verla were hilarious but I want a few of just the two of them!! *fingers crossed*

I can't believe we only have 10 episodes left!!!! NOOOOOOOO! *jams sobs* and the Thug Brute is there to tarnish them....NOOOOOOOOO *jams blows nose and sobs more*

F U Zach Slater.

Ugh, I really cant stand John O'Hurley. Was this his only episode? I sure hope so

OMGosh I'll second that F U!!! And to think I really thought he couldn't be anymore unlikable annoying mean abusive and stupid!!! My hate-o-meter sprung it's springs with this brute pig.

He is so damn annoying with his stupid nonsensical mumbling mouth!! What a one note joke bully tyrant brooding loser & pig of a character!!! Why does he play EVERY scene and moment the same way??? The constant brooding is so annoying!!!!! Why is he even back????.... he adds NOTHING to the story....nothing to the show. No nix that... he adds confusion abuse hate and my high blood pressure. I can't stand that stupid twit Kendall either but I even feel horrible for her! Is she still laying in bed waiting for ThugDaddy to return? Drop this pig, Kendall, and go for the man that really cares respects and loves you...Griffin. Leave the abusive domineering old stinky lingering fart behind.

Thanks for letting me get that out of my system. I have to flush out the Zach hate weekly or it will drive me crazy!!!!!!

And lol add me to the can't stand JohnO' list......pompous ....annoying.....arrogant....crybaby. Hmmmmm reminds me of somebody else............

David removing his phone from his ear instead of hanging up on Erica ROFL!

That was divine hilarity.........Dr. Dave knows not to hang up on LaKane!!! Loved it!

This just had to be quoted, maybe because I've had 2 glasses of wine and a Mike's Hard Lemonade, but it's just such a perfect statement!

...I've had 2 glasses of wine and a Mike's Hard Lemonade...

Selfish.

I swear, AMC missed the boat big time by only letting David and Erica interact every now and then. VI and SL are so good together. And David and Erica react to each so perfectly. The dynamic between them is so twisted, irrational, a bit sick...but it works and in a really odd way, makes sense. I'm going to miss it.

All that was going through my head throughout the Ryan/Zach/Greenlee/David nonsense was "WTF" and "Thank god Kendall isn't apart of any of this." Seriously WTH just happened? Waste of time, pure awfulness.

I had to pause and LMAO for 3 minutes straight when Ryan lunged Jessie over in the park. That was ridiculous comedy

David and Cara are going at lightning speed but I just love them. Thursday's show when they were bonding at the park, laying down in the grass? AMAZING SCENES. That is the most relaxed & fun I've seen David in a long time. VI and LH looked like they thoroughly enjoyed doing those scenes. I just love them together. I love the pregnancy twist, this is the perfect set-up for a story for Cara on AMConline. I hope her and VI continue with AMC. I'd love to see David finally start to settle down a bit and be redeemed as he gets ready to bring a child into the world with Cara. Not totally revert from being evil, ;-), but take it down a notch.

The thing that's missing for me with David and Cara, is build up. Right now, they haven't been through anything. She rode his dick once, and now it's supposed to be love? IMO David pairings need build up to be successful. David and Erica made sense and worked because of the build up too. The same for David and Anna. David and Dixie could have worked, because there was build up there, AMC just chose to crap on David/Erica and Tad/Dixie in the process of David and Dixie.

David and Krystal and David and Amanda didn't work because they just happened and when the ish got bad, those women were like WHOA who the heck is this guy? Where as Erica and Anna knew EXACTLY who they were dealing with. I see Cara following in Krystal and Amanda's footsteps. I hope I'm wrong, but as soon as David does something David--something she's shocked by--she'll go running and she'll take that kid with her.

I could like them with buildup but I am so not a fan of these pregnancy stories. We are in 2011 people. Cara is educated, intelligent, and a doctor. In what world do women like this accidently get pregnant. I get people love accidental pregnancies on soaps and WTD: stories but to me its a total copout and a cheap tactic. They could have had Cara and DAvid working together and bonding on the show or even on the new AMC through trying to bring back Griffin or any number of non lazy repeated soap cliches. NOT A FAN. I thought Amandas cancer story was wonderful and a step in a positive direction.

But what do I know. Maybe the showrunners are right and viewers don't care about the buildup anymore and feel its just filler and unnecessary as they move from one plot point to another.

I actually liked David and Greenlee a lot and was disappointed that they dropped the potential for that pairing for another round of ryan and greenlee. And Ryan and Madison were also the most interesting pairing Ryan had since Gillian
