It's true that Morgan is a cipher (if that!). I sort of wish he was the Mason Capwell of this show -- the wealthy, well-traveled, educated kid seething with anger over how his parents dumped him in an overpriced boarding school to tend to Myyyyyyyyyyyychael. Full of sarcastic putdowns and witty bons mots at Bambi's doe-eyed earnestness about The Mafia Code.

Sure, he is sore at Michael and Sonny about Michael being the favorite, but everytime he bleats about Michael stealing Kiki, I'm like "Her? Really?" The hatred was already there, was it necessary to bring on some steel-jawed harridan to pretend that it's as simple as "Ah wuv her! No, ah wuv her!" ?

LMAO at Franco basically saying I have crazy parents, I'm a psycho, I'm messed up and I've done horrible things but, besides that, why wouldn't you want to be with me? And that face RH pulled. laugh.png

I can't be the only one laughing at the way Kiki jumped into the water. But what's the problem? It looks as if Michael can just put his feet down on that little pond and all is resolved. wink.png

I just couldn't with Franco/Carly. Oy. They will never work for me. But damn they have chemistry.

I'm also distracted by the fact that Silas and Derek look the same age and one of them is dating Sam and the other is her father. Seriously, it's ridiculous.

And so is this reason behind Sonny not offing Julian. Seriously? Danny? I mean, I get it, but they're stretching for anything to justify keeping Julian alive and not having Sonny order him dead.

I hope Kiki and Michael never come out of that water. ANd Morgan can take a flying leap with them.

Also the writing for Ava has gone totally south. All she does is leer and lurk and make side comments. What happened to the powerful Ava Jerome? Sigh. I buy her more as a mob boss than Julian.

I'm also somewhat annoyed by the writing for the women lately. It's reaching 'worship my man' status. And I find that writing incredibly annoying. Sam's done nothing but pucker up to Silas' ass all week and Olivia couldn't be further up Sonny's behind.

And there goes Carly. She couldn't wait to jump into bed with him. Yuck.

Finally the baby story is back on tomorrow. And they remembered Felicia exists! Yay. And yuck to Julian. "Did you come back for more". Alexis may slap him but she'll be in his bed in no time.

This is so disappointing! As much as I'm into this pairing, I am absolutely livid! Let's write Carly having reservations and revisiting all of the horribleness in the first 1/2 but then we will give her a reason to have sex with him in the 2nd 1/2? They should have allowed Carly's struggles to play out longer! Idiots! So Michael going into the water had nothing to do with the Corinthos Clan? It was all about Francly? Wow! Just [!@#$%^&*] wow!

LMAO!

There's no there there with Ava and Julian. DeVry has no connection with NLG or with Kelly Monaco. He's likely to just end up going psycho over Carly, and Sonny and Franco will have to save her. Under the vamping, Ava is insecure and ultimately not very relevant to the canvas. I predict a faked pregnancy and a murder mystery in her future.

    • She could have easily tied them into the Cottage Mystery...(they could have easily explained going on adventures with Bea, babysitting) The house that Tony and Annabelle lived in could have been the coachhouse of the property that Qualo and Henry live in, or at the very least Nola would have been totally in on ghosts and secrets of her brother's house. But they kind of just sat around for months.  The clip of Van and Billy's impromptu wedding shows how sidelined Nola and Quint became...Nola isn't even around butting in on them getting married, its all Reva (though it is a more interesting Reva where Mindy and her or going at it and insulting each other..THAT Reva was fun.)  I loved it when those two would go at it. Somehow they could have resurrected that antogonistic relationship and not have Billy worshing at the throne of Reva.  When they brought JC back on recurring they should have had him at least warn Annie about Jeva pulling her down..."Darlin' I love my brother, but when he has ole Reva in his sites he will drop any woman to try to win her back...and then he will get bored with her...she's like booze is to me and you...he hates it but he needs it..get out while you can!"
    • It's been brought up that Empty Nest was a time slot hit. Here's Empty Nest schedule and seasonal rating in comparison to The Golden Girls. 1988/89: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 6th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 9th. 1989/90: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 6th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 9th. 1990/91: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 10th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 7th. 1991/92: The Golden Girls Saturday 8 pm, 30th (final season). Empty Nest Saturday 9 pm, 22nd.  1992/93: Saturday 9 pm, below the Top 30. 1993/94: Saturday 9 pm, below the Top 30. 1994/95: Saturday 8:30 pm then 8 pm, below the Top 30, and cancelled. Empty Nest 7 season run equaled the parent show The Golden Girls.
    • In an interesting turn of irony, when Somerset came onto the airwaves in 1970... it ran against Dark Shadows and beat it in the ratings fairly quickly.  Then when Edge of Night moves to ABC in December 1975 and put against Somerset, the slow ratings rise that Somerset was allegedly having in late 1975 is derailed. From reading the write ups of the final year, the show dropped the May/December romance.. which viewers enjoyed and was getting the show some good press... the original cast member was sidelined due to medical issues, and the show featured pure crime stories without any balance. I think the crime focus was an attempt to compete with EON.  However, people that were into crime stories/mysteries weren't going to tune into Somerset for their fix.. not when Edge of Night was known for that.. and that show was running on a high quality wise when the network switch occurred.

    • Erwin Nicholson's last episode as SFT ep was 11/21. Whitesell started 11/22/85. Erwin was on board from March 8, 1985 so less than 9 months. Whitesell lasts six months (approximately) before P&G moved him to AW for two years where he primarily worked with DePriest. Whitesell was replaced on Search by no daytime experience David Lawrence who closed out the show's last six months.

    • I assume in name only?  One Stormy Night wasn't exactly steamy.  If it's a literal throwback then Stephanie's writing about sexy times her own Uncle was having lol. Since I am going to surmise it's just a throwback to the name, Night Sins and Winter Heat both sound sexier.  Just saying.  I swear Jamey (and Ron) just google things and land on the first thing they like and decide it's a good throwback to history without watching it.
    • I usually don't want Tide placement in the middle of an intense sad scene, but this is an interesting point
