I'd also like Nick Davis and Mark Dalton but anything is fine.

As for the finale, I enjoyed it. I thought it had a very nice spirit and flow, and I thought they did a very good job of tying up loose ends yet leaving a cliffhanger. A part of me is baffled about what can happen under PP, since we probably won't be seeing Brooke, Adam, Erica, etc. again for quite a while, if ever, but I do want to see what happens, so that's an accomplishment.

The opening was very touching, especially Marian seeing Stuart, and the moment where Erica fixed Bianca's hair, and Bianca did the same for Miranda.

I liked the buildup to everything but the shot itself, I would have preferred seeing a gun go off to just hearing a faint whiff after the screen went black.

Stuart/Marian were so touching. I'm glad they weren't forgotten. Nice stuff with Brooke and Adam. The resolution for David was believably open-ended, and his last scenes with Angie and Jesse were true to the characters and balanced. Over and over in these last few episodes I've been reminded of what a truly special character Angie is, how effortlessly she blends in with the spirit of Pine Valley, and what a loss her absence will be. Y&R doesn't deserve Debbi Morgan.

Those scenes between JR and Dixie were so sad. The way JR's breakdown was written was hard to watch because even if people were trying to help him, they often just made his pain worse.

Is it me or did anyone get Dixie confused with Marian during the party scenes? I kept thinking, "Why is Marian there?" and then I realized she was still at the hospital.

I wasn't all that interested in the Jack/Erica stuff; I know it was about Erica's need for a man (yet never truly feeling settled with a man), but I would have rather seen this wrapped up earlier and Erica moving on with her life in the final episode, maybe returning to PV for the party.

It's the type of thing you assume soaps will never let you have again. It was a beautiful moment. Stuart and Marian had one of the purest love stories ever on soaps. It never deserved the ending it received. I'm so glad Lorraine and Agnes rectified it.

    •   Dani’s cute ass party planner. He gave me some tea but I was so drunk I don’t remember it.
    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside. 
    • Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.

    • Yes. We should absolutely move on from John/Drake's 40 year legacy on the show to see what Leo is going to do tomorrow.  Lol.  This can't be a serious post.
