I don't expect to either. I put together two tidbits----Katherine's guilt and a church camp. (I also have some vague recollection of Wyatt saying something about not liking/going to church, but I could totally be imagining that). If Katherine's guilt was just over how Wyatt became an addict, I wouldn't see why that would have to be connected to a church camp. Re Wyatt's addiction---we're supposed to believe he's made it through the toughest part of rehab. Remember, he's only back in rehab to cover Jim's moving money out of Katherine's accounts to pay off Candace's blackmail. I think we're supposed to be more interested in why Wyatt turned to drugs, than if he's struggling with his addiction. In fact, it looks as if he might trade in one addiction for another, if his looking up porn sites is more than a plot device to find out Candace is a call girl.

I could be wrong, and it wouldn't bother me. But again, the writing runs from a to b.

Yes, and before that, when he saw Candace and his dad, he was sneaking a huge ass swig of scotch or whiskey or something out of one of those crystal decanters which I found for whatever reason, hysterical. (I dunno--if you're trying to sneak booze around your family, it's probably not the best idea to take big chugs in the living room out of the decanter they keep there. But maybe this is how Perry imagines rich addicts act. Sneaking booze in coffee mugs and pop bottles I only for the have nots...)

No, you're prob right.

I somehow missed the tidbit that that's why Wyatt remains in live-in rehab so long... Still, I guess I got the impression he was meant to be an insaney chronic, every possible substance abuser, and it had been a problem for a while, so I expected some more sign of that even if you're right, he is meant to be in recovering.

Jeffrey is possessive, I wouldn't be surprised if he turned into a raging psycho, the whole sniffing the dirty shirt thing was kinda nutty and so was the whole getting teed off at Wyatt's woman showing up.

Veronica was rude to Hanna about being a maid. A lot of black people wouldn't be professionals today if their parents hadn't done domestic work. Hanna did manage to throw some shade at her about knowing her son well, Veronica had it coming.

For a second, Veronica looked at Benny sort of moony. It would be interesting if they ended up entangled, I see more potential chemistry there than Benny had with the Darcy character.

All the double entendres in Candace and Wyatt's conversation were hilarious.

    • @BroderickThank you for the reply. Such acting that they Sharon Gabet and the actor playing Draper still played their relationship after it's over. I picked up on it even though I had no idea about their history. That's such good acting/continuity.  Raven has just moved to London and a custody battle is now brewing for Jamey.
    • Ha-ha-ha, I thought it was Marland who turned Mike into a jerk, but apparently not. I get that they probably felt the Mike/Leslie story had run its course, but they should have at least let them have a kid. Especially since they were soon ensnaring him in a storyline with a woman who couldn't have children (Elizabeth). Of course, no one could have predicted there would be a dearth of Bauers a few years later. I remember this! I remember Holly sitting by the phone, desperate for Ed to call so they could stop the divorce. I forgot it was Rita who never gave him the message. What a bitch.

       But, yeah, this is the Rita I remember at the beginning: very determined to bag Ed. I contend that Holly never, ever got over it, never stopped regretting that the divorce went through. I wish at some point over the years they had let Holly and Ed reunite for more than a brief affair. It feels like a thread that was left hanging. There she is! I was beginning to think I had dreamed up the Rita/Tim/Evie triangle.
    • In the interview posted on knotslanding.net, William Devane described the Greg/Paige storyline as "juvenile".  From that interview I also got the impression that William Devane was on his way out near the end so he wouldn't have returned if there was a season 15.
    • Just started this show. I’m on episode 3. I’m starting to make the connections and understand the family tree better. Still will take time to fully understand everything but it’s exciting. So glad we have a new soap opera in 2025! Excited to join the discussion once I’m caught up.
    • Haley and Jacob had more chemistry in their small interaction than I ever saw between Naomi and Jacob. Same with Haley and Derek actually - that was one of the few times I can recall Derek ever having any life in him. 
    • -- Anita going through Ted and Nicole's wedding album. Really??? -- Dani defending Ted in her conversation with Nicole. Really??? -- Bill wants a child with Hayley. Really??? -- Many people are saying "Dana can't be Eva's mother" because of the way Dana treats her. Maybe she's not her mother, but that biological connection has nothing to do with it. Dana has functioned as Eva's mother all of her life. There's no reason to believe giving birth to her makes the difference. -- Hayley is hilarious for being so clueless and tone deaf when she comments on others' mistakes and flaws. God, she's dumb. -- Alex Alegria continues to suck as Tomas. Soooooo wooden. -- Ambyr Michelle stole the episode.  
    • I was fine with Greg and Paige as a couple (ick factors and all, lol).  What I didn't like was how juvenile their push-and-pull was, with Greg alienating her repeatedly and arbitrarily, and Paige leaving him and/or The Sumner Group in a huff, only to come back together, like, thirty minutes later, lol. I get that Greg was not someone who enjoyed sharing his feelings with others, but c'mon.  He was a little too old for all that on-again/off-again [!@#$%^&*]; and so was Paige, and so were we. Mary Robeson wasn't her aunt, though.  Thanks to WBTV's Primetime Soaps app, I was able to rewatch all of S14, and I learned, in fact, Mary was her aunt - which I guess made Joe her uncle? Truly, I thank the streaming gods for being able to rewatch the final season, because, for the past 30+ years, I never was able to understand how Mary and Joe, Nick and Vanessa, Val's disappearance and Treadwell (and Abby) all fit together; and even now, it still seems a trifle sketchy to me.  (The shortened season and reduced budget wreaked some havoc on the storytelling, did it not, lol?)  But I do appreciate the attempt, because it's probably the first time since Val's pregnancy that the show even attempted to tie the cast together under the same story umbrella. And even if she was trepidatious (sp?) about raising Meg alone, she wasn't the type to express those feelings outwardly.  Laura wasn't going to fidget and cry like Val, or shout wild-eyedly at others like Karen.
    • Oh Lord! They don't dare put her near Jacob. 
    • And knowing Hayley she’d somehow feel like she was the victim
