Jane Elliott was magnificent on Monday!

ME/Silas looked a hot ass fake and bake mess today.

Bambi is weak as hell. I would've already beat my brother to a pulp by now! How can he not take charge of his own apartment?!

"Mystery guy"/Lulu scenes made it obvious he's Franco. He kidnapped & strapped a bomb to her, that's why he seemed shocked she didn't remember him. And the last scene at Crimson sealed the deal. The pan down from the roses (Franco gave Maxie some of those at Crimson before). What an atrocious story. THAT's Franco's replacement?!

Milo

Kiki

(POOR POOR) Rafe Especially sick of him & his static shoulders. THE WORST!

Speaking of which it was DUMB how Morgan just said he was going to live with Michael and Carly was alright, that's perfect, didn't even talk about it with Michael and then rushed out the door. WTF?!?!

Also just catching up after like two weeks.

Jane Elliot was FABULOUS on Monday's show. That was so wonderful and I've been waiting for her to say that stuff to Luke for years.

Go away Milo, Kiki, Silas, and Rafe. I can not deal with Rafe.

I must be dense I don't get what the big deal is about his name being Silas...

I think the name Silas suits this guy. Stephen Clay's OLDER bro.

I don't get the issue with the name Silas either. I just think of that hot white kid from Weeds

Kiki isthd one that still bothers me. Her name is Lauren Katherine yet her friends call her Kiki.

Not crazy about that name, but I had an aunt named Katherine and all of us called her Aunt Kiki. I think it was because one of the older cousins couldn't say Katherine when they were little and called her Kiki and it just stuck.

I forgot about him. Mmm Hunter Parrish...

It looks like Silas is a trendy TV name right now. It's always interesting to me to see how certain names become hot then fade. I can't help it. To me Silas is a slave name. They might at well have named ME's character "Fiddler."

I think it sounds Amish. And he looks kind of Amish.

Yessss Hunter from Weeds.

I don't want to say RH is doing a bad job not playing Todd, but this "clever" writing is stupid.

Ewww. Morgan and Kiki had sex in Michael's bed with him outside the room on the couch listening to that.

Lulu. "I don't know how to spell my last name"

Lucy is now a Port Charles tour guide? Oh boy back to vampire crap I cant believe she is exploiting what happened with Alison and Rafe. Is she that hard up for money?

Agreed, I think Blake became a woman who learned from her mistakes and grew up. I too wanted them to be the core couple after the Tori thing, as a matter of fact, around Wheeler after Simon left I wanted them to move into the Bauer house..( I would have Blake say that this is the closet thing she knew as a home )SORAS the kids, and bring Sam back..Dinah would have a very contentious relationship with her, as she would be jealous of Ross and Sam's relationship, and Blake and Dinah would have that tension (ya, know cause she killed his brother) it would be a core family that had some fissures leading to good drama. But now, Wheeler and company though the Coopers should be the core.

Agree that great minds can think alike :)
In terms of Derek, I see the show doing one of two things based on the most recent episodes that featured him.
1) They do the gradual fade-out of the character until he stops appearing and is occasionally mentioned by Jacob (i.e. still living and existing in town, just not being seen). We saw some evidence with him having a group of co workers he's friends with, plus a female co worker interested in him... so possibly we see him regain his walking and go back to his life with the Fire crew and eventually we stop seeing them on air.
2) His mentioning to Jacob that he hopes to win Ashley back signals that perhaps the dark side we saw glimpses of has been hidden and will rear itself if she appears to be moving on with a new guy.
In terms of Ashley, the show seems committed to keeping her character on the show especially since she was shown in the Thanksgiving episode having a quiet day with Jan and Mona as they discuss Black Friday shopping, food, and other day to day matters... so I think delving into her backstory in terms of who her father is would be a good place for the show to go while keeping her as a good friend to Naomi, Shanice, and a good nurse during medical stories.
Perhaps one of the children of the handsome new doctor could be her love interest down the line.

Re: 1978. I'm glad the unedited version of the episode complete with commercials is available. The one that has been posted several years ago had several segments missing. I like Barbara's long hair here. Dr. Steven Farrell didn't last very long I take it since she is re-connecting with Tom (Tom Tammi) by 1979. The actor playing Steven (Phil Peters) was the real-life husband of Lenore Kasdorf (Rita GL).

Oh, how I wish we'd gotten to see Ross deal with his teenage sons. I loved his relationships with Phillip and Sam, but he really deserved to be seen with his own kids (other than the horror that became Dinah). The boys simply disappeared off canvas after either the Nursery Stalker or the affair with Tori.

What I liked about Bloss is that I liked how they grew to be the stable couple- the closest to an Ed and Mo in their prime. Especially after the Tori story when their extra-marital exploits were in the past. I wanted them to SORAS the three kids, along with Dinah and with Phillip's family as Ross's extended family would really be solid core family material.
With that said, I was rooting against Bloss in 1999 as I really liked the Ross/India pairing-- but that just turned out to be a waste of MKA.

They did actually resolve who shot Austin over a year later (it was Cyrus, as part of his hasty exit story). That was a last minute save though clearly when they forgot lol.

Talkin' 'Bout TV Movies

I love those old TV movies, especially the ones from the 70's and 80's. The ABC movie of the week had a ton of them. Like
Satan's School for Girls (1973)
All My Darling Daughter's (1972)
Gidget Gets Married (1972)
The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped (1974)
The Two Worlds of Jenny Logan (1979)
The Boy in the Plastic Bubble (1976)
Death Cruise (1974)
Here is the 70's ABC opening. The theme music "Nikki" was composed by Burt Bacharach and named for his daughter with Angie Dickinson.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

The return of sitcoms' popularity in the mid-'80s was a real thing, but the crash of the wealth-based nighttime soap genre was resonate and self-induced.

There was an effectively grim finality to the mood of the cliffhangers in the Spring of 1985: Bobby's death, the Moldavian massacre, the return of Val's babies... and they felt as if they could have ended right there (and perhaps they should have, although I would have sorely missed S10 of Dallas, S6 of FC, and Season 9 of Dynasty , and the next five years of KNOTS as they singularly maintained quality).

But, wow, these shows just fell apart post-Spring 1985. They stopped being character dramas after a while, and just started trying to "impress" viewers in some superficial way and to "fake it" somehow.

What a painful, unnecessary slide it was. But once these shows seemed to lose their identities, their sense of self, their momentum into the dung heap couldn't be slowed.
