Random bullet thoughts:

*the opening would've been a lot better if they didn't use those cheap animation transitions with the photos. Simple dissolves would've worked better.

*AJ/Miranda is clicking off the bat. Really effortless chemistry, and damn is Denyse Tontz just a star, and in not an overly precocious way either--as a Kane woman should be, heh.

*the profanity/raciness was definitely organic. David + Cara = hot.

*Rob Wilson was a big surprise, and seeing him in action you really see the James Mitchell resemblance in the eyes, which makes for good casting. Really worked well with Jill Larson and Jordan Lane Price.

*Angie/Jesse and Debbi/Darnell pick up where they left off... well, except for Debbi's Maya/Lucy flub that is.

*Evelyn really made an impression, and I'd love to see catfights with Opal down the line as you know she won't be too happy with the eventual Celia/Petey linkage.

*Agree with who said something felt a little off with Adam/Brooke, but still great seeing them together.

Not much else to add to what everyone else has said.

LOL, Lea is played by Paula Garces (Pilar on Guiding Light in the late 90s). She was just announced a couple weeks ago and I guess we already know now she will be Zach's love interest.

Love the old music over the new opening. I think that confirmed to me the way the pictures transition or whatever seems fine to me. i like the new music too though.

IMO, part of the reasons things seem a little off with Brooke/Adam is because their story has to be more generic (sans spoilers) until what really happened that night is revealed. The conversations are sparse. She has to react big to something not yet revealed.

I think the postponement in the wedding has to do with what happened that night, plus Adam signing something over to Brooke even before they are married shows a level of trust between the couple, and it will probably spell trouble with JR.

I don't think that Adam is living out of town, I think that he has been traveling a lot to repair the damage done to Chandler Enterprises since the night of the shooting, and visiting with Stuart and JR. It was rumored that he would be recurring, but I definitely think it is by his choice given his age, and still wanting semi-retirement.

JB definitely had some work done, but thankfully, the five week break seems to have given her time to already look less harsh - given photos at the premiere.

I love that the show opened on JB, and regardless of the opening (which I think is better with the classic theme) that PP dared to have a woman in her 60's and a man in his 70's kissing, and really kissing, not just a peck.

I thought Pete was good with Opal. And Evelyn seemed scary as hell with practically just one line to Celia. Love AJ and Miranda.

Overall, the dialogue was a mix of on the nose - "internet is where viewing is at" to funny "can't spell STD" to provocative with Angie referring to Jesse large penis.

    • Holly's final big story was the Sebastian mess in late 2004.   Vanessa and Matt were promoted to regulars near the end and were heavily recurring prior to that starting around 2007/2008.
    • Keith has a softer presence, but it would have helped to see him be more aggressive or proactive in protecting them instead of standing around like a mannequin. A man the audience should be hoping and wishing gets back together with his wife. Nicole needs a new husband!
    • She needs to learn to be honest with her husband about her lusty interests because being sex positive only works if you're not cheating on your spouse.

    • Very disappointed in the writers in the way they are screwing with Nicole, Ted,  and Kat to make Leslie remain viable. So many holes everywhere.
    • Somebody brought this up elsewhere which emphasizes why this NuTed appears as such a weakling. Why is Kat doing what HE should be doing? And that's everything he can to rid him and his family of this crazy woman. Kat is doing all kinds of things she shouldn't do but now I understand her more. She can't count on her father to eliminate this woman because he's a wimp. He's been too busy inviting her into his home and serving her drinks and offering her invitations to birthday parties. WIMP!!!!

    • This is (maybe) overly simplistic and nonsoapy, but Doug needs to go to Gamblers Anonymous, to deal with the addictive neurological excitement hits that gambling gives him - and which control his life. Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her.
    • YT keeps commending GL clips to me. I discovered Kathleen Cullen was on in Christmas 1987. Was there any talk of making it permanent  or was this just a special visit? I wish they had made the visit permanent. I liked her chemistry with Grant Aleksander.  
    • I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay. This is where I wish I knew Roger's history better.
