Well, I hate to invoke the spectre of this wretched story, but he actually did a bit. He certainly tried to when he fell for (gag) Gigi-as-Stacy. And he told her the truth despite the cost to himself. He did make a start. Like every roguish con artist on every soap opera, ever. Except maybe Paul Cramer. So I don't see a reason not to give him a shot.

I finished episode #1, and I liked that all the cast was featured in the episode.. though I do wish the scenes were a little longer especially between Dorian/Vicki. Their exchanges alone should have at least two minutes minimum.

With that said, I did like that even though David was still goofy that he was seemed more like a human and not like a cartoon character. Especially given his Saturday Night Fever send up with everyone laughing at him.. he had a look of sadness that it made me want to give him a hug and invite him to my party!

Glad to have scenes with Dani throughout the club, glad that Natalie went out but quickly went home. It seems like this was the first night in awhile that Natalie has gone out as a single girl and it's realistic she would want to get home early.

I did love Blair/Todd on the staircase... plus loved Blair's attempt at flirting and feeling like a babysitter instead of a club goer. I did like Tea/Blair still getting along.. imho, they are next generation Vicki/Dorian.

Liked the new Destiny and Matthew. Matthew did seem to have some of the same mannerisms as Alderson.. and glad that he is clashing with Bo/Nora just like a son would clash with his parents.

All in all, a great intro episode.. though I hope that the scenes between characters will be a little longer in future episodes.

Absolutely, and these moments add layers to the characters that I can really sink my teeth into. Danielle may as well have been in the nursery alone. That scene was quietly heartwrenching. KM did a superb job of potraying Dani's feelings with just her face. I had little use for Dani on terrestrial OLTL, but I'm already quite taken with her on Internet wavy OLTL.

Nora also had one of those moments when Bo/Matthew came out yelling. She braced herself and took a moment before even turning to face them. Obvioulsy, they've had quite a few fights, Bo and Matthew, and it's weighing on her. Good, good stuff.

OH MY GOD, YOU GUYS. My show is back. MY SHOW IS BACK!

FloLo is great in quieter scenes, but it will take everything I have to try to NOT expect her to flip out in tears, hair chewing and snot every time I look at her. It is what it is.

Hearing her singing in Spanish even made me feel warm inside. I really HAVE missed this show.

I guess the cougar thing was inevitable, but still, it's my girl Blair. She looks fantastic as always, and I want her to be happy.

Yes, David is still as OTT as always, but honestly, it felt like home to me.

Oh God, Dorian, Viki, Clint, Dorian & Viki sparring? I can't, y'all. I can't.

I don't know how I missed the 84-91 theme in the beginning, though.

Bo & Nora! EEEE! biggrin.png

And because I can:

I WANT MAX & GABRIELLE BACK, DAMN IT!

Welcome back, OLTL. smile.png

      It’s chilling watching these episodes where they’ve given up hope on Bo and John is still alive and headed home.

      Yes I think BTG needs another meeting place that bridges Orphey's and the Country Club.  But otherwise BTG offers a hospital set, a police station and homes for several characters. The set situation may be better than 2021 but that doesn't mean much today. And calling the changes at CL and Sharon's cottage updates is  a stretch. Having characters visit several restaurants in one day or even return to the same one in the same day is ridiculous. And then to focus the show around business makes it even more laughable as there are few offices and staff in evidence. I don't know what the answer is unless someone is prepared to shell out a few bucks. As I said before having more characters work at Jabot, Newman or Winters would help. I quite liked that business set Devon had. We could see Devon, Abby,Lily, Nate and whoever else could work there in an actual business setting.

      I have a feeling that the backstage dramas of the soaps are a heck of a lot more enthralling than anything we see on screen.

      While keeping up with the current show I’ve also been watching May and I finally got to Phillip’s beating. Was surprised they went so far but I loved it. A nice reminder that no matter how much you doll him up, Xander at his core is a thug.    Great scenes between Xander and Sarah. I do enjoy them happy but they are an extremely toxic and untrusting couple. This was some of LG’s best work as Sarah.

      The one that comes immediately to mind is that she obviously was still harboring resentment against Kate Linder. She tells a story of Linder meeting with producers to pitch a storyline about Esther dealing with Kay's death.

      I think it shows a lack of imagination from Griffith and the people calling the shots. Yes, there are budgetary and physical limitations, but Griffith and team would rather make the laziest and quickest decisions than put a little more effort into the set situation.  That said, B&B also seems to be in a similar set predicament. I know the plans for Y&R and B&B to move to a new studio were put on hold, but maybe a bigger space would remove some of these restrictions and give them more set variety. Someone should definitely revisit those plans.

      I thought my ears were hearing things wrong when I was working and listening to the show. But Lucky is leaving again already
