Thanks for the collages.

I'm still emotional over all of it. I was read the live thread while at work (that's part of why I couldn't get The View poster either) Boo on ABC for not selling it longer for those of us who have jobs and don't get a chance to order stuff.

AMC did a good job wrapping up the show, and they didn't forget their history.

Maria: Tad, Ruth...I have something I need to tell you. It's life-changing.

Ruth: What is it deary?

Tad: Is Dixie dead AGAIN?

Maria: No, no. It's David. I know who his last patient is...It's Bobby. Bobby Martin, the one who got left in the attic. David was able to revive him!

Ruth: Oh this brings a tear to my eye! I haven't been able to look at a ski in 40 years!

Maria: There's more..

Tad: What is it?

Maria: Bobby had a sex change...His name is Barbara Martin now. That's the hot blonde Dixie saw.

No but seriously, I'm mad at how small Maria's pic came out. It didn't seem that small when I was making it.

Bobby Martin That's funny.

I read something that some ABC stations put a programming note advising that AMC will no longer be on come Monday. That in January it will be online, but with no further info. Perhaps they wanted to keep people from calling and screaming at them.

Word.

Nixon's best work was going for Erica's jugular by having her admit ok yes I don't want to get married and yeah it's really ONLY EVER ABOUT ME AND MY NEEDS. I applauded Jack too precisely b/c Nixon addressed the recurring theme of Erica's entire existence.

Finally saw the finale. I enjoyed it. It did feel rushed. I wasn't as excited by the JR cliffhanger as I wanted to be, but it was a good ending. I absolutely loved Stuart and Marian reuniting. Bringing back Stuart, I was so thrilled by it. It corrected a HUGE wrong. I absolutely loved Adam and Brooke getting engaged just as Jackson finally got his balls back and told off Erica. I loved how she chased him through the crowd of residents and everyone reacted as Erica vowed to get him back. I also loved hearing "I am Erica Kane" one more time. I really don't like Opal nagging Erica about Jackson, but whatever, LOL.

I enjoyed everyone's happy ending. It was nice seeing Adam and Dixie talking about JR with him listening, I also liked Jamie/JR and was glad we got a few scenes of people who needed to interact.

Overall, a really nice ending. Oh, Tad toasting the town was really touching.

Good finale. It gave closure yet let us remember that life is still going on in Pine Valley, even if the show will lose a lot of these cast members come January.

Further elaboration from Budig on Duhamel's scrapped return

TVLINE | OK, so you have to be tight-lipped, but the fans are dying to know if we’ll see Josh Duhamel back in the finale. ABC released a promo photo of Leo in a suit, so the assumption is…yes?

Oh, you know, they shot something with Josh when he was here in August and I think they were going to use that in the finale before All My Children was purchased by Prospect. Now don’t hold me to it, but I do believe that was the intention when the show was going to end one way. But it’s been changed now.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
