Too bad Destiny can't turn out to be Matthew's FB gf. It would serve his deadbeat Dad ass right.

Ooh, that would be a great twist!

Especially after she got him to dance with her and then denied him -- foreshadowing? Maybe that really is what they are doing!

Hey now! Let's see Erika Slezak or Robin Strasser pull THIS off:

I don't have a problem with product placement, but that was a freakin commercial. Who the hell talks like that in real life?

That much worse than the Guiding Light Pringles and Bounty stunts.

As for the Viki reaction to Jeffrey staying on, that was magnificent and so real.

The scene where Dorian pulled off her wig while watching the resignation message was the first since the Hulu start that felt like Dorian to me. I just wish this wasn't going back to revenge plots. I think Dorian and Viki are too old for this type of writing.

I did like Viki talking about her struggles with the paper, not wanting to take Clint's money, etc.

Jeffrey is too perfect to believe in, but he's OK, just not really that invested. I do think he, Matthew, and Dani have a good chemistry together.

I did sort of like the sequence of Todd trying to talk to Victor about supporting their children, which led Victor to try to make some attempt with Blair, Jack, and Sam. It was nice to see writing that didn't treat Blair as Victor's discarded slampiece. The scenes with Todd slowly drinking the poison and staggering around his house reminded me of Edge of Night (I was hoping he'd go over the balcony...).

It was interesting that you mentioned Victor and Blair because I actually felt like once RH came back the writers had no use for Victor away from Tea and Blair away from Todd. It was like the 8 years had never happened.

I felt like that started after the Tarty mess - Blair wanted Todd (Victor) back for a while but he never had any interest in her, he didn't even seem to want to be around her. It was nice to get a break from that, briefly.

All: Anthony Geary has passed away

That’s nice. MVJ was one of the very few scriptwriters that Geary respected. She wrote the rape confession monologue that Luke had with Lucky and it was one of the rare times that Geary didn’t change a word and acted out what was on the page.

All: Anthony Geary has passed away

This is sad, and I will choose to remember Geary for the electrifying performer he could be instead of what he purposely turned Luke into in his latter years on the show.
That said, and I know he was getting older, but he did often look quite frail whenever I saw recent pics of him with his husband. Whatever it was, I hope he went peacefully.

That's my question as well. Where COULD they have gone with it? Would everyone suddenly up and move to Empire Valley? Would there have been an EV spinoff, lol? I'm just struggling to figure out what, if anything, would have been the point.

Well this is turning out to be quite the banner week. First the voice of Sheen from Jimmy Neutron dies along with the voice of Doug Dimmedome from "Fairly Oddparents" and now Rob Reiner and Anthony Geary. People cheering over Rob Reiner dying are so horribly disgusting it pisses me off. And I really hope that whoever killed Rob and his wife gets the maximum penalty possible.

My God. To turn on my desktop and read that Rob Reiner (and his wife) and Tony Geary have both passed away. It's just so much to take in on a Monday morning that I'm struggling to find the right words. I pray for peace for all their loved ones, and for all of us who have enjoyed their work over the years.

NYTimes regarding his wife
Michele Singer Reiner, who was a photographer

One day, she visited the New York set of the romantic comedy “When Harry Met Sally…” and was watching a scene in which Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal’s lovesick characters argue with each other when Mr. Reiner, the film’s director, spotted her in the distance.
“I look over and I see this girl, and ‘Whoo!’ I was attracted immediately,” he told The New York Times in 1989, recalling the pair’s meeting.
A few months later, the photographer and director married — and their relationship inspired Mr. Reiner to change the ending of his most famous movie. “Originally, Harry and Sally didn’t get together,” he told the Guardian in 2018. “But then I met Michele and I thought: ‘OK, I see how this works.’” Harry and Sally had to marry each other, too.

I think my own disconnect is that while Tony could seem frail in recent years, Luke never was. Which reminded me of an interview before he retired where Geary admitted to being on set waiting to film and he told Jane that he was so bored. And she told him don’t worry, Luke isn’t. Which is probably one of the few insightful notes he got in later years as an actor.
I had that same disconnect with Jackie Zeman when she passed. Both she and Bobbie always had a vitality to them. Bobbie’s early dichotomies being both bubbly and shrewd, hopeful and cynical. Hard to believe they are both gone.

Omg that's a shocker. What a beautiful and thorough article in the Hollywood Reporter. So many details I never knew.

Story wise I'd like it if we learned Luke really died saving women from being trafficked after faking his death on the train in 2022, taking over Bobbie's work. a sort of redemption for what Luke was.

Michelle and I are heartbroken by the tragic passing of Rob Reiner and his beloved wife, Michele. Rob’s achievements in film and television gave us some of our most cherished stories on screen. But beneath all of the stories he produced was a deep belief in the goodness of people—and a lifelong commitment to putting that belief into action. Together, he and his wife lived lives defined by purpose. They will be remembered for the values they championed and the countless people they inspired. We send our deepest condolences to all who loved them.
