Really. I wasn't expecting to already be on the cusp of crying like a baby on Monday.

So about 75% of the episode was dedicated to the Hubbards.

They also did a bit of a finale for the Colby family and maybe the Castillo family.

I'm expecting that JR's breakdown is going to be thread through the week.

So now Krystal doesn't want Babe back? Just a couple of weeks ago she was begging David for any info. JR is right, she doesn't give a crap about her kids.

This JR stuff is breaking my heart & it's really tough to watch especially when everyone else gets their happy ending.

Marley I know its hard but look at it this way he's gettig a memorable ending. I have watched these shows lose interest in vets over the years and just have them disappear from canvas which is more insulting. At least with JR his story seems to be the catalyst for the cliffhanger of the SERIES not one story. And JY is popular enough to have his arrival at B&B being promoted and I give B&B credit for capitalizing on AMC's ending this week with that promo.

I don't think its Babe at all. I think its going to be Stuart now with how things are progressing. Babe has been a red herring.

I've become jaded over the years. I was half expecting Angie to lose her eyesight again -- kind of like a Greek tragedy. Even when up until the final scene as she approached the camera to frame the picture, I was expecting her to all of a sudden start to go fuzzy and dim. That wouldn't have been the way I'd have written it... But I wouldn't have been shocked, either.

So the fake film look is back? I couldn't decide if it was or if I was imagining it. If it is it's not as bad as it was before (the flashbacks made it glaringly obvious how awful the show looked from 2008 til the move).

I missed the first 20 minutes or so. Was there any explanation of how we went from 2 patients to 1 or is it just "pretend that never happened"?. If the latter, that is awful. The scene where David told Zach he had two more patients was shot after the three week hiatus in July in which the Prospect Park deal was announced and (according to SOD) the re-writes were done. So there's really no excuse.

I do take some comfort in knowing that once AMC ends on friday ( for now) JR might be the most discussed character (this is me speculating of course, we don't know what's gonna happen) and seeing BB promote JY and have him come on so soon makes me very happy.

I'm gonna go into mushy mode and feel free to mock me all you want but these characters are in some way our friends and family and we all have our favorites and mine happens to be JR. I know he's an !@#$%^&*] 90 % of the time, I know he's incapable of being happy but I still love him damnit and not because JY is "hawt" like some would like to believe, I just like JR period, warts and all.

I honestly thought I was more cynical and a savvy soap fan to not really care at this point...but apparently I do. I need a drink.

I liked the Hubbard scenes.

Wow.... I wasn't crying, but I welled up a bit. I like the "Family" theme that seems to be happening here. Its really a nice, touching way to end AMC, or at least the current chapter. It would appear that cliffhanger is GOING to happen, which I am not entirely sure how I feel about. Its nice though that everyone seems to be ending on a happy note. I really, REALLY loved Angie and David's embrace. I think that will be a common theme too this week. David will be in jail, but perhaps every "family" will sort of make peace with him? I could be wrong. Debbi and Vincent though are awesome, its pretty clear prior to cancellation those two might have hooked up.

    • I swear this entire time I thought Roman knew about the Phillip/Vivian letter lol.  I do like how mature Roman/Kate are as a couple.  It makes me sad the new writers never got a chance to write for John/Marlena. I agree with @AbcNbc247 that the Felicity stuff is a bit after school special-y.  I am pretty sure that (most) of the viewing audience is aware that a grown man should not be shouting at any teenage girl especially one with disabilities.  Just let Xander apologize and move on. Linsey Godfrey was in her Sarah baby voice mode today and it irritates me to no end.   I know it's a cutesy thing her and Xander do but it's annoying. Bringing Kevin back is strange, but I do like the use of history.  I do think Rex probably could have been used instead, but whatever.  I don't care about Rex much either lol.
    • I mean over the past decades. But I do agree that in recent years now, the writing is not working for them as well as it used to then. It's same old, same old...which is what made the Damian storyline refreshing. At least for me.   
    • Did Denise give any interviews where she talked about her first few years on GH... '73-75? I wonder if she had any regrets leaving Days for GH, as from what I've read, the show was in the dumps writing-wise, so am thinking she didn't have great story? Any Leslie story highlights I've seen always start with '76, after Gloria Monty took charge.
    • I know! It's like second verse, here we go again!  Agreed. Certainly there was concern maybe even fear at the highest levels for the very good reason that what they had was so economically successful, so of course this risk was scary but if anyone was brave she was. Yes, he was. I have seen her associated with getting it on the air one other place but no details nor official title. Not the writer or creator so it made me wonder if she functioned as a kind of uncredited ad hoc producer, but then maybe she just supported it. At any rate that is nothing but supposition on my part. No data! Yes, not a surprise anymore but still so frustrating! On one hand I am appreciative that she is included in this book, but scholarship where are you?!
    • that wasnt her point. She wanted to further demonize Ted; that was the main focus of their talk. She wants to ensure that Nicole leaves him so that he's free and single to be with her. At this point, I dont think she really cares what Nicole thinks of her; she just wants her out of the way Eva is Nicole's stepdaughter and is a Dupree by association. If Nicole takes Ted back then its reasonable that she would accept his daughter and i that happens, Eva will have welcomed to their country club, be invited to their parties, have access to their resources, etc....much like Andre whom also isnt a blood Dupree but is accepted by them via Nicole. Eva got what she got from Anita bc of Hayley. I think its important to remember that context bc they just dealt with an interloper that infiltrated their ranks and hurt her daughter in the worse way. Now you have another unfortunate girl positioned to do the same to her other daughter. The feelings are still too fresh and she doesnt want Eva to get the idea that she would ever be allowed the opportunity to play them again
    • Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect! Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect!
    • Eve was one of those characters that had the "Jessie Brewer"role. They had heavy storyline, they burned through it and now they are there for support and a touchstone in the community (Marland wanted to give Jessie story, but I agree with Monty...she best served in her connecting role, and keeping that damn Amy Vining busy so she keeps her nose out of things) So charcters are important and why they should have kept characters like Bridget around (even as she is more volatiles then Eve) who didnt need a big storyline but could have been behind the bar making connections and expostion, but Rauch wanted JEVA/JEVA/JEVA and DRAMA (which to him meant a lot of yelling and stupidity.)
    • Why do I feel like (or remember possible
