Carl, I think JMB consistently does good work, sometimes almost great. My problem is that I've hated Lulu since 2006, and I don't see that changing. I don't know what she's up to these days, but I'm confident she's still the judgmental bitch with terrible hair!

I'm surprised JMB ever took any acting classes.

Especially since I don't see improvements. But then again she's taking acting classes with people who in soaps.

3 days in a row and no Sam. Doesnt even look like she will be on tomorrow based on the promo. This is not a good week

Blair got her own version of Carly's dress and wore it alot better

Good for Spinelli standing up to Maxie and refusing to not let her use him anymore

Grandma Anna? Aunt Felicia? Im having a hard time feeling any connection with Emma and either woman when they barely develop or even show it.

No Sam? Sounds like stuff I should be watching! I can't imagine she's become valuable in my absence. I still have yesterday's show on DVR waiting to be deleted unwatched. I may have to reconsider. Thanks Cheap!

Why is Spinelli written as having moral high ground after he tried to kill Maxie?

The same reason why Sonny and Luke have higher moral ground then everyone else. Seriously hearing Sonny lecture about exploiting women when just a few years ago he was sitting around waiting for his regular hooker was ridiculous.

A week without Sam is a week not worth a damn

The last time I saw Sonny, I was very disappointed in the writing for him. Very!

She's always been a big nobody to me, but I don't hate her. Just totally indifferent. I'd rather not see her at all.

If you are a fan of him sounding like the smartest, bestest father ever than you should go watch his scenes with Kristina in the warehouse.

Sam, Heather, and Todd are the only things I like about this show anymore. Who would have ever thought they'd be such a great set of characters?

I didnt see Spinelli as having a high moral ground with her today. The Spinelli/Maxie dynamic is completely screwed up and has been for a while. Its about time someone realized it and put a halt to it. Good for him for not wanting to continue this demeaning and messed up cycle. It does nothing for either of them and I think the writing for him lately has been the best Ive seen for him since he joined. I still dont like him and want him gone, but Icant fault him for wanting to get sucked back into Maxie's drama considering everythnig that has gone down

For real right? I think they are doing wonders with Todd and I hated him when he returned on OLTL. Heather, well RM is always a delight, but I like how she's been integrated and has been thrust onto the frontburner and playing an integral role in so many plots. Sam rounds out the trifecta and she works well with both characters

Gonna pass but thanks! I have not seen nuKrissy yet. A few months ago, I watched Johnny talk to Sonny about sexually taking advantage of notKate and they had a conversation about it. That damn near brought me to my knees because there is no way my Sonny would have refrained from bustin a cap! It was way off! Since, I enjoy missing the Sonny impersonator.

Oh, how I wish we'd gotten to see Ross deal with his teenage sons. I loved his relationships with Phillip and Sam, but he really deserved to be seen with his own kids (other than the horror that became Dinah). The boys simply disappeared off canvas after either the Nursery Stalker or the affair with Tori.

What I liked about Bloss is that I liked how they grew to be the stable couple- the closest to an Ed and Mo in their prime. Especially after the Tori story when their extra-marital exploits were in the past. I wanted them to SORAS the three kids, along with Dinah and with Phillip's family as Ross's extended family would really be solid core family material.
With that said, I was rooting against Bloss in 1999 as I really liked the Ross/India pairing-- but that just turned out to be a waste of MKA.

They did reveal Austin's shooter...about a year and a half later.

They did actually resolve who shot Austin over a year later (it was Cyrus, as part of his hasty exit story). That was a last minute save though clearly when they forgot lol.

Talkin' 'Bout TV Movies

I love those old TV movies, especially the ones from the 70's and 80's. The ABC movie of the week had a ton of them. Like
Satan's School for Girls (1973)
All My Darling Daughter's (1972)
Gidget Gets Married (1972)
The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped (1974)
The Two Worlds of Jenny Logan (1979)
The Boy in the Plastic Bubble (1976)
Death Cruise (1974)
Here is the 70's ABC opening. The theme music "Nikki" was composed by Burt Bacharach and named for his daughter with Angie Dickinson.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

The return of sitcoms' popularity in the mid-'80s was a real thing, but the crash of the wealth-based nighttime soap genre was resonate and self-induced.

There was an effectively grim finality to the mood of the cliffhangers in the Spring of 1985: Bobby's death, the Moldavian massacre, the return of Val's babies... and they felt as if they could have ended right there (and perhaps they should have, although I would have sorely missed S10 of Dallas, S6 of FC, and Season 9 of Dynasty , and the next five years of KNOTS as they singularly maintained quality).

But, wow, these shows just fell apart post-Spring 1985. They stopped being character dramas after a while, and just started trying to "impress" viewers in some superficial way and to "fake it" somehow.

What a painful, unnecessary slide it was. But once these shows seemed to lose their identities, their sense of self, their momentum into the dung heap couldn't be slowed.

It is very strange. They have insisted on having 30+ contract players for years now. If they had less cast, they could up everyone's episode guarantees, balance the cast out more. Like 20-25 would be perfect. Have everyone else recur.
If you look back at the history of the show, especially in the 1970s and in the 2010s, whenever the show was at it's most successful, it had smaller casts. Audience relate to the characters more, because they see more of them. In 2009 and 2013, the show had arguable it's most successful periods since the early 2000s (ratings wise that is). They had smaller casts and focused on 3 or 4 stories the whole year. That's what they should be doing at this point. Have a few umbrella stories, that last the whole year, and involve the whole cast. But again, before that, fix who we see on screen cause.....😬
