I like Obrecht, but in doses. I'm not down for yet another round of "Obrecht/Heather/etc. goes on a criminal caper, is immediately cleared due to Plot Contrivance/WSB to scheme again". Which is all they do with Obrecht. You can't go to that well twice in four months.

They over-write (and overexpose) the broader, wilder characters they lllooovvvee to the point of suffocation, and they under-write everyone human and relatable.

So Dr. O loves Fruit Loops! I hate Carlivati's camp but I do enjoy Dr. O's antics.

In Sonny vs. Franco, I'll always root for Sonny. There's something very, very wrong with that.

Oh dear lord... it's Carolyn Hennessy...

When Ava wears blue, she looks ugly a.f.

Silas, Sam, and Nathan are an incredibly wooden combination.

TJ still sucks but he's easier to take when he's away from the other twitty teens, who are worse than him. I like the actress that plays Jordan.

Dr. O may be a cartoon, but I find it entertaining when Kathleen Gati hams it up. When people like Carolyn Hennessy or Roger Howarth do it, it makes me want to take it out on someone. The fact that she took the baby hostage is so predictable that it actually makes it even funnier just because of how typical it is.

When Ron casts Nina, he'll probably decide Lisa Rinna is just right for the part....

Ron's probably never heard of Lisa Hartman Black. She really doesn't seem like the type of actress RC would cast, but then again, neither is Donna Mills. Of course, it's not like RC cares about writing for Madeline.

I just watched yesterday's show. I hate to say but I actually really liked the Carly/Sonny flashbacks. I actually liked Maurice when he was with Sarah Brown's Carly. Sarah can often be too cold and hard but it was great to see her in yesterday's show. I thought Tamara was too flat and one note but it was nice seeing her yesterday too.

Jackie Zeman is always a gem no matter what.

Emily just can't stay dead for real. It's very tiresome seeing her ghost over and over again.

I won't miss Sean Kanan's smirking. We already have William DeVry for that.

You wanna bet? I say Veronica probably spends her nights in front of her mirror, lip-syncing to "Letterock" with a hairbrush, while the elaborate shrine to Ciji Dunne/Cathy Geary stands in the corner.

    • She needs to learn to be honest with her husband about her lusty interests because being sex positive only works if you're not cheating on your spouse.

    • Very disappointed in the writers in the way they are screwing with Nicole, Ted,  and Kat to make Leslie remain viable. So many holes everywhere.
    • Somebody brought this up elsewhere which emphasizes why this NuTed appears as such a weakling. Why is Kat doing what HE should be doing? And that's everything he can to rid him and his family of this crazy woman. Kat is doing all kinds of things she shouldn't do but now I understand her more. She can't count on her father to eliminate this woman because he's a wimp. He's been too busy inviting her into his home and serving her drinks and offering her invitations to birthday parties. WIMP!!!!

    • This is (maybe) overly simplistic and nonsoapy, but Doug needs to go to Gamblers Anonymous, to deal with the addictive neurological excitement hits that gambling gives him - and which control his life. Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her.
    • YT keeps commending GL clips to me. I discovered Kathleen Cullen was on in Christmas 1987. Was there any talk of making it permanent  or was this just a special visit? I wish they had made the visit permanent. I liked her chemistry with Grant Aleksander.  
    • I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay. This is where I wish I knew Roger's history better.

    • GROSS. Michael Swan was hot back in his ATWT days. Now he's 76 and WAY past his hot years.    
    • Since she kidnapped, locked up and tried to kill her father's wife I'd say that is still a pretty big deal
