The episode was great! I loved Genieveive's scheme and how she was able to snag a fiancée so quick. LOL at this bitch thinking she could fool the man into thinking she were 39. Zoila throwing her shade was funny. I was kind of grossed out at the guy wanting Valentina's egg

The Carmen and Odessa material was pretty good. Very good developments

Yay, Taylor's back. I missed her. I actually felt bad for Olivia. I forgot that Marysol told her that her ex was still in love with her

Rosie wasn't as annoying this episode. When she saw the combination was B-A...I thought it was going to be B-A-B-Y

:lol: I was just coming in here to ask if anyone else thinks Alejandro's an ass... because he sure acts like it! And what's with the stoner eyes? I thought that this was why he reacted like he didn't care. Guess he just... didn't care? They never really gave an explanation. But Odessa/Carmen is very sweet. The opening scene was hilarious.

Lucci got to play some sadness today and it was great. They resolved this egg storyline much better than I thought they would and it's nice that Genevieve is finally taking an interest in Remi. But I'm sure she'll go back to her crazy self in no time.

All the twists and turns with Rosie/Evelyn were great. How terrifying that Rosie owes a favor to that perv now.

And I'm liking the way they're developing the Flora mystery.

I had high hopes for Rosie based on the first episode. I thought her story would be about her as a mother and her quest to bring her son to the US. The Spence affair surprised me. I have a hard time feeling sorry for Rosie though. You mess around with a married man, and it's not likely to end will.

Alejandro's "secret" wasn't all that juicy. I kind of wondered whether that was a possibility, and IDK why Carmen acted so shocked.

The stuff with Olivia... that was hard to watch, but you kind of saw it coming. I have to wonder if Marisol will feel any remorse for the role she played in that, or if it's all single-minded with her to save Eddie no matter who gets hurt. It's interesting to me how the characters who seemed really sympathetic at the beginning are now shown in a far less flattering light and vice versa.

I also understand not airing a new episode on Labor Day weekend when people might not be home, but I'm bitter that I have to wait two weeks for a new show.

I just saw last week's episode and I love that set. Odessa and Carmen as frenemies has been great and I love how Carmen has been growing. It was lame that Alejandro didn't have an excuse for his attitude. I thought he was going to reveal that his mother or another loved one died of cancer so he shut down and tried to keep his distance from her bc it brought up bad memories

SHOCKED! When Carmen and Alejandro were having their moment, I was thinking, I totally ship them and then the bf walks in. Looks like my gaydar is not working

FINALLY Genevieve is branching out and interacting with the other characters on the show. She was so isolated before

Loving Peri. She really is trying to make a change. Good for her. Too bad her ho-bag maid is screwing her husband.

Oh shut up slut. You don't have a right to be upset. Go on and slink out of there back to the gutter you came from

With the way Taylor is so loud about wanting to spread her good news, I have a feeling she's going to miscarry. It seems so obvious.

The minute it was mentioned that the son was a drug dealer, I had a feeling Remy was his client.

Given how she killed herself over Taylor being pregnant and Michael not loving her anymore, yes, I could see her going after Flora if she thought Michael was the father. I suspected a woman as a possible killer simply because Flora stumbled out of the room and all the way to the pool, which to me indicates that the killer may not have had the physical strength to finish her off if she was fighting back. I wonder if there's a DVD of Michael and Flora together doing something other than talking about her pregnancy.

Most shows seem loathe to destroy one of their main 'good' characters by making that person a murderer, so that also makes me think the killer was a minor character like Eddie's drug dealer friend or Oliva the now dead ex-wife or Philippe, Remy's father, or perhaps Peri's lover - the actor/co-star she was seeing. We haven't seen him in a while.

    • I think it's the next day, or nothing explicitly ties this one to the prior one, unless Shawn had on the same clothes as when he called in sick? So maybe I'm wrong. Did they acknowledge that Tate's little sister and babymama seem to have the same birthday? And why wasn't Tate invited to Rachel's tea party?? Javi trained to be an EMT (I thought it was in Corpus Christi, though). He revealed this after he saved Sarah from certain death -- by reminding her that she had an EpiPen -- and Leo questioned how he knew what to do.
    • He refuses to have a dad bod.
    • Lol. For one...that jacket was off. For another...the costume designer went for comfortable BUT form fitting at the same time. For another...I guess JM is working out again cuz he looked yummy.    That said...yep. BtG suuuuuure do.
    • Same as me. So you already know what's coming as soon as I sit down to start watching this week.  
    • 5-19   You know what? I actually didn't dislike it as much the second time around. But tbf, I didn't hate it the first time either. It's already been established so far that RC's breakdowns can be pretty hit or miss. And I would say his average so far on this show has been 50/50.   Outside of Jacob vs Silk Press Sheila, it was all B/C plots. However, I got the sense that there was plot movement...something for better or for worse, RC does know how to do. And even within those plots, I felt there were so good character development moments.   What really stood out for me was Doug and Vanessa's last scene. FINALLY, they stopped dancing around it. And we got more information on what their arrangement truly is in terms of their marriage. Given the building toward it through Vanessa's sexacapedes and Doug's gambling storyline, it felt earned. And lest we forget...he still didn't tell her about his addiction nor what's going on with Joey. Meanwhile, Dani is slowly getting clues from seeing Vanessa with Joey one episode to seeing Doug in the middle of the afternoon on this episode. I don't see it as them shoving her into a storyline unlike Carly on GH if an example is needed, but it wasn't exactly organic either. Then again, the Vanessa with Joey scene was organic. Not the gambling stuff.    I did like it though. It was a nice spotlight for the Dani/Pamela friendship. And I also liked the idea that was mentioned about a Pamela vs Vanessa feud. After all, regardless of what's written on the page, they both appear on screen to be close to Dani. And I find it relatable to see two friends have issues when they are close friends to the same person, but NOT to each other. And their scene with Diego was ripe with tension.   Just cuz...HEY, DIEGO, HEY!! lol.   I loved Jacob vs SilkPress. The web that girl stays weaving continues to be fascinating to watch. I know we have discussed at length about how long SilkPress can stay on the canvas. As soon as it's figured out what she's done with Laura and allegedly Eva/Kat, it's OVER. And such a soap find...it's fascinating to watch a crafty villainess worming her way around getting caught. Which is giving old school soap. I also love that in her worming her way out of the charges, no one is being dumbed down to keep her on the canvas. So this next turn in the story is great, refreshing, and probably should be studied by other soaps.   I enjoyed Dani and Andre. Again, it has had a build. And technically if we are going there, it's about to be three months. Usually three months is the perfect time to start having the 'what are we' conversation...whether someone is casually dating or just being a booty call. And that look Andre gave Dani when she said Bill's name...oooooo he's finally over her talking about him and showing a sign of possessiveness. It's also not lost on me that his reaction to her saying her reasons...was to leave. Big uh oh for them. Where will Dani/Andre go next?   Well...look who got comfortable enough in his role that he gave some good acting aka Tomas. I liked the scenes with Tomas and Kat on a second watch. But I don't think Kat's wrong with what she said. She's so busy and focused on Eva though, she's ignoring red signs with him I am afraid.   And speaking on comfortable...look at Derek trying to act. lol. Personally, I thought both actor and actress did good jobs. And again, it's had enough of a build, you knew it was coming. And I'm surprised to type it, but I was Team Derek for that argument. He was trying to make her feel better, and it just made things worse. And Ashley was being unsufferable. How was he to know about the curry? And of course, she runs right into Andre.    Decent cliffhanger though I'm a firm NO to Andre/Ashley versus me being open to it at the start of the show. Wow...how things have changed.
    • IMDB credited that episode to Bill Bell and Pat Falken Smith, too, so obviously way off!
    • Sonny and Carly look ridiculous with this child thats the same age as Michael’s children. Maurice literally looks like he’s babysitting a grandchild but instead she’s calling him daddy.
    • Several legends here. Like @DRW50 I grew up knowing Joe Don Baker first and best from Mitchell (and his other infamous MST3K appearance, the equally hilarious Season 10 episode Final Justice - there were funny rumors he wanted to beat up the MST gang after Mitchell, while others claimed he actually took it all in good fun). I only learned later what a great actor and personality he truly was in things like Cape Fear, The Living Daylights and the original, strange and mystical BBC miniseries Edge of Darkness, where he played a CIA operative laughing in the face of nuclear annihilation. There's nobody like him. Same goes for George Wendt. Norm speaks for himself, as does Cheers. He'll never be forgotten as long as there's still television.
    • I want SHELLE to be friends, like Belle is friends with Philip.  It will always be awkward, but they've known each other since high school (24 years ago).  And it has never worked out for them romantically. One assumes Shawn-D could've used a computer at home (or Black/Patch), to continue his investigation. So, why did he show up at the Pub after he lied to take PTO, and then lied directly to Jada's face about being sick?  Unless, of course, it was just a totally inorganic, nonsense device to run into Belle. When is Johnny's first day of work?  He got the offer, met about the offer, talked about the offer.  When's he actually going into the office?  And does he own a suit (other than the red devil one)? I liked that Chad had to rule out EJ for having Philip beaten because of what happened with Rex vis-à-vis Kate, that's a cool linkage, especially because I think everyone forgot to say goodbye to Rex. 2 Questions: Is it the next day, or do Sofia, lil'Rachel, and Ari share a birthday?  Also, I missed it, how old is Ari? Did everyone skip prom?  Because I thought Prom coincided with Sofia's birthday. And what was Javi's dream job in Florida?
    • I always had the impression that Blake turning out to be Christina was a storyline switcheroo after they decided to bring back Roger. She used to talk to someone on the phone and it sounded like it was a younger sibling. Maybe originally they were going to be Spaulding cousins, like Johnny was a Bauer cousin? I'm pretty sure in the Spaulding backstory Brandon had a brother.  LOL. Nola was established as the youngest, the name Chelsea doesn't fit in with the other Reardon sibling names, AND she had a very prominent Southern accent. Kassie would have been more believable as a Lewis or a Shayne. Plus, the character was boring as heck.
