just watched the finale yesterday. angie's big speech was at the police station after Jesse arrested David. she was trying to convince Jesse to let David go, then Adam pulled some strings on David's behalf as a way of thanking him for bringing Stewart back. Of course PP can just undo all of that so I am not sure it matters much.

Angie and David's relationship was so well done--I hope it keeps up. He needs a friend like her who he respects but she won't put up with his crap.

We love hearing that @allmychildren and @onelifetolive episodes will be avail on @iTunesTV for 99 cents each!

They really better ave a season pass price. That said--I admit I would pay 99 cents an ep--for the first month anyway--if it meant they could rush it to iTunes Canada as well while they seek out some streaming Canada options...

LOL, I still don't think she's that great of an actress. Hopefully they'll be decent, and grow into the gig the way JR Martinez did.

On soaps, charisma and a natural comfort in front of the camera can go a long ways with a newbie (though only for so long if they don't start improving.) A number of these people have youtubes up from demos or their stage work and seem decent. Rob is hopelessly stiff on Price is Right and I expected the worse--but he seems to have charisma and an ease in the behind the scenes stuff--as long s he doesn't freeze up when he has to remember lines.

Angie and David's relationship was so well done--I hope it keeps up. He needs a friend like her who he respects but she won't put up with his crap.

With Jesse being ONLY tolerable of David, I think that a simple doctor-to-doctor relationship is all that is gonna happen there. In the finale, there was only a little bit of a friendship and alot of that was based on David getting the surgery to Angie to restore her eyesight. She was appreciative and grateful to him for that and said she would agree to keep in contact with him during his incarceration. There was never any significant relationship/friendship going on ever. Just a simple friendly relationship only.

At the end of her interview, Cady McClain expressed a desire to see Richard Shoberg (ex-Tom Cudahy) return, and I'd have to agree. Despite all the drama surrounding his character (the marriages, the drinking, Laura's death), Tom was the kind of grounded and stabilizing force that you don't see now on soaps. Moreover, he and Brooke had one of the most normal and unforced relationships I'd ever seen on television -- from courtship, to marriage, to divorce and subsequent close friendship -- and in a perfect world, they would find their way back to each other and become the real next Joe and Ruth for the show.

Rob is hopelessly stiff on Price is Right and I expected the worse--but he seems to have charisma and an ease in the behind the scenes stuff--as long s he doesn't freeze up when he has to remember lines.

To be fair, all the models on PiR today are stiff. The good old days of Janice Pennington and Holly Hallstrom are long gone.

I always believed a romantic connection between David and Angie was only a matter of time, and likely would have happened during the fallout of the baby swap story had the show not been cancelled.

I think it's a very tantalizing element in their relationship and I hope PP continues to play with it.

I liked Richard Shoberg but I couldn't see breaking up Adam and Brooke, a very popular tentpole couple, just to go back to that.

But that's where the drama comes from--Jesse hates the friendship. Angie isn't gonna be controled by that. I don't want David to be a potential lover at all, mind you, but some jealousy and an intense friend dynamic works.

But, see, I don't see Adam and Brooke as being a tentpole couple. Popular? Of course. But if the show thinks they can provide some kind of foundation to the show as it goes forward, then they're wrong.

Next to David Canary's Adam, Brooke's relationship with Tom was, and is, the only one which works for me.

Okay, why?

While Canary is game to stay on, I want Brooke to stay with him--but I wouldn't mind Tom coming on in the type of role you mention.

He's always been a nice guy and would slide into the older patriarch really well. I think Brooke still has more spunky stories to tell though.

Did they explain why Jesse disliked David? I'm sure there's an explanation for it and I just missed it.

To be fair, all the models on PiR today are stiff. The good old days of Janice Pennington and Holly Hallstrom are long gone.

I watched some fo the male model search he won--and they are instructed to do exactly what he does--which is, I guess to seem more masculin than the female models waving their arms in front of prizes--the guys are instructed to do "bro" type gun finger points. Horrible.

Well yeah--but that's what's great about Adam and Brooke. B rooke IMHO shouldn't be aged to the more boring/steady tentpole role yet--and with Adam she still has story and conflict.

Jesse's a cop (and he thinks he's a good moral one hopefully cops will be better at PP). That's the main gist. Add to he was performing dangerous experimental surgery with Angie Jesse didn't wanna risk.

Opal (who I do want to have stories mind you) and Joe are the tentpole characters on right now I think.

Okay, why?

Because Adam and Brooke need to be like ANOTHER WORLD's Mac and Rachel, not Y&R's Victor and Nikki. And that's not going to happen, apparently, since everyone in the known free world except yours truly is comfortable with Adam Chandler repeating himself and never learning from any of his mistakes -- many of which caused Brooke to walk out on him in the first place.
