I liked the episode overall, it was very emotional. My heart was aching for the Quartermaines. I understand they can't do anything at this point about Alan (and Edward and Lila) being gone but I would love for them to undo at least one of the younger Quartermaine deaths and have it stick. So angry AJ is dead...again. I guess they technically traded him for Jason but dear god, that is no trade I want any part of! He's not even on screen so what's the point? I loved that Emily referred to Michael and Danny as Quartermaines, I sure as hell hope the show treats them that way. I just don't appreciate the fact that there's an entire generation of Quartermaines missing. Why not bring on a recast Dillon?

The scenes with Sonny and the three Carlys were wonderful. Maurice has such an intense chemistry with both Sarah and Tamara and both had such iconic portrayals of the character. I agree with those who say Maurice and Laura have no romantic chemistry. If Laura ever leaves and the show is still around, I hope they bring back Sarah or Tamara because damn.

Felt very strange to not have Anna, Duke, Tracy and Luke on. But I supposed with FauxLuke, what were their options? The show would've started with him doing a line of cocaine out of Kiki's ass: "Happy 51st, GH!" laugh.png

The three Carly's certainly poiinted out how LW lacks sexual chemistry with Mo. Im not even a fan of CarSon and saw it melting from the screen btween Mo and TB and Mo & Sjb always managed to sell it. (It kind of fell flat to me on their scenes today, though)

I love sjb but she isnt aging too well. A pity cuz shes a kick ass actress. And i usually keep myself from saying things about actresses' look becuz its hard in this business for any women past 30 but i found it distracting.

The episode as a whole wasnt that bad but not good either. A few things work (having felicia, mac, kevin, monica, scotty, bobbie all in one show) but others were just bad (Carson was the only one deem worthy of a flashback?)

The hair and whatever additional work she's had done in the last year or two were the problem with Sarah. But the lighting didn't help, thanks Frank. I'd still have her back above all. I don't care if she looks a little like a kabuki actor.

The show was just so tonally off, IMO. It would be one thing to do this special Carly thing any other day, or perhaps with different material - each Carly should have not only drawn on their past together but also challenged him about the present, emphasized that what he had done to A.J. was wrong, fought him on it while invoking that past history. Sarah sure could have, and they had past material to draw on for that. (You could've even shown her dragging drunk A.J. around in 1997 and talking about her regrets.) Same with Tamara. But instead it was less about the current, very serious circumstances and more about memory lane, and that was just so inappropriate. It was celebrating Sonny and Carly while simultaneously killing A.J. and trying to turn it into a happy anniversary event. That was awful. The trappings - the ghostly hospital with pictures, the Carlys - nice idea, horrible script and story.


This is why I miss TOLN.

I really wish I cared who had the best chem with Mo/Scummy (it's TB, BTW). I don't appreciate all of this for that little whiney dirty greaseball! Carly works so much better away from Scummy! SJB looks a bit rough but the hair looks good.

Too bad they passed on the scenes of Scummy calling her a whore and tossing her out.

Yes, good luck with that. If you have any further GIFs of other people or fictional television shows to send to me with which to represent yourself, please send them to my inbox and stop derailing the thread.

I'm confuzzled.

So far under Crappy, Scummy has threatened to kill Carly because of Olivia (plot point, of course) was sexing up Olivia while Carly was MIA and went to see Carly at the hospital OFFSCREEN after she was rescued. So I have to ask, what were the scenes about today? What was I supposed to get from that?

Seriously, somone please help me out here.

Oh, and if you woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, feel free to pass - coughVeecough... lol

    • Yeah, not sure why Jack and Jen didn’t rush to Marlena - or even Carrie - to offer their condolences. A few flashbacks would've been a nice touch too. Instead, we got a whole episode of them talking about Chad and Abby? Come on. On the bright side, I loved Anna’s scenes with Marlena and Carrie - sweet and heartfelt, felt like a real 80s throwback.
    • Martin and Smitty were designed to avoid the stereotype of gay men sleeping around (which to an extent is true). If you recall Martin had a line about them not being open when Chelsea came to talk to him. The producers are walking a very fine line right now and it might not be popular to say but I can understand it. Establishing enough footing to ward off complaints will let them showcase gay characters more openly later.
    • The week was decent. They have started to rotate their stories and finally got a rhythm going. I disagree about them allowing every character to have a moment to shine though. Nicole really hasn't been given anything to do. I completely agree with all this. I adore Doug and hope he makes it through.

    • There was the one appearance in '96, but otherwise, that's correct as far as I know.
    •   It's working fine now.

        Question for the B&B group: I see @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded multiple seasons from Videoland  (in the folders that are to be put away). They are huge folders and difficult to download so I started breaking them down into months but I realized they are by season so for example, Season 4 spans from March 1990 to March 1991. Now I'm wondering where to actually place them, since we have the Full Episodes section divided by year, not seasons. And most of these seasons we already have in full, so these are duplicates. Not sure if it's necessary to keep the older versions. I could just make another new section for Seasons, so the main folders would be "Behind the Scenes and Interviews," "Clips," "Full Episodes," "Full Seasons," "Music CDs," and "photo archive Marquise" but I'm not sure that really makes sense. Also wondering since we have almost every full episode now if "Clips" can be deleted in its entirety, as it's nearly 300GB.
    • CBS moving Murder, She Wrote from Sunday to Thursday was straight up sabotage. Les Moonves knew exactly what he was doing.
    • I sure hope you’re right. The lack of sets is maddening!
