And this is how you introduce a brand new character, start them out in the background.. and support for other people's stories. Their reactions and actions as support in established characters stories helps paint a picture of who they are.

Once viewers are used to them, then start to explore their backstory on screen.

I like Celia, but I feel that the show is rushing her and Pete. I want to know more about Celia since she does give off a Jane Eyre vibe.. but I think having her in scenes with Brooke is a good first step in tying her to the show. Then once she is fleshed out, then move forward with her and Pete. Even though Pete was on before, we don't know much about him.. how he went from geeky chem dude to hot shot techie dude.

I will say that Ginger Smith seems like a no nonsense boss, and I think the show needs that right now. She doesn't seem a type that would give in, without a fight.. so Frons wouldn't have had her as EP if the show was still on ABC.

Ginger Smith should've been AMC's EP when it was on the network. JHC was a friend of Frons which is the only reason she went to AMC in the first place. Frons had to cancel Port Charles so he gave JHC another job and she was allowed to continue to fail year after year after year. Say what I will about Jean Dadario Burke, she at least grew up on this show the way Ginger Smith did. JHC was GH bred which is why, after Wendy Riche was fired from both GH & PC, she became the EP of Port Charles... where she was supervising producer. So, I have no doubt that Ginger Smith is taking her job seriously. She has a show, staff and cast that she's come to know and love for years to protect.

Burke's AMC was largely uninspired (though she was there for Bianca's coming out and that short Nixon period)--and Iw as disappointed because I thought her work at Loving and The City was innovative but showed respect for the genre. But I'm not surprised that Frons dumped her very early on in his run and replaced her with JHC--who was obviously a complete yes man to Frons (I guess the only real positive I can say for her is the cast seemed to like her?)

It was nice to meet Jennifer Pepperman former ATWT director, one of my favs, on screen. I had no idea what she looked like. It was great putting a face with a name. I always pictured her as a blonde..lol

I LIVE FOR DEBBI! "Listen, if that big guitar didn't cover everything, WOW!"

The editors need to get it together. They spelled Eric's name wrong! It's "Nelsen" not "Nelson"

There was an Erica Kane shout out & trivia wub.png cool.png

Cady McClain & Julia Barr were also interviewed in between shooting a scene. Good stuff. Cady says they have an intense story coming up that will knock our socks off.

They talked to some hair/makeup people. The head hair guy demonstrated some of his work on Sal (Cassandra). Sal was looking like she didn't want to be bothered. LOL.

OMG. They showed some previews for next week. Looks good!

I would say it's worth the watch!

    • Right. Literally for decades, soaps mesmerized their audiences with tales of romance, family conflict, class struggles, and recognizable interpersonal-relationship sagas. We didn't need relentless, heavy violence. We didn't need clones, mad scientists, extra-terrestrials and demon possessions. We didn't need gaggles of plastic himbos and bimbos pushing beloved vets off-screen. We only needed to see people whom we cared about, and the intelligent, moving progression of their lives. Flashy sets, gaudy gimmicks, and high-falutin' hairdos be damned. The characters and the words were important.
    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
