Glad they are not pursuing the cult S/L, I find most shows create scenarios that are really trite, drag on and, frankly, you have to dumb down a lot of characters to make it work. I do like the idea of revisiting what happened to Nikki and Paul and why they end up there, etc. What kind of vulnerabilities Nikki or Paul may have as a result of being in the cult and the Dylan thing. That's all RW, who is not going to be a longterm player, is needed to do. He is a great actor and is able to bring that creepiness, but charisma that can make this plausible.

They need to do a Jill vs. Kelly.....I'm not sure if it's gonna go down that way, but it's a shame that CW is leaving, but maybe CM will surprise.....

I loved how Jack named almost all of Jill's surnames......someone in the writing room at least has a little respect for the past.....

Watching those scenes between Jack, Jill and Kelly made me think what a shame it is that CW is leaving when the character has truly begun to hit her stride. And I could definitely get used to Jill and Kelly trading wits and barbs. Too bad that possibility is not long for the show.

I like CM but I see her portrayal as being more arch and icy. I could be wrong though. I'm hoping for a good mix.

There is so much potential to a Jill vs Kelly, if they play the beats and remember Jill's history of meddling with her son's love lives with Nina and Mac.......It's not very promising as it seems like they don't wanna do long term storylines, but i'm gonna just wait and see what unfolds.....

If I was writing the show I would have eventually thrown in a Jill/Stitch affair just to piss off Kelly even more.......I just think it would make perfect since for cougar Jill to seduce the much younger and handsome Stitch......it wouldn't be out of character at all....

Cady McClain can breathe new life into Kelly. I wasn't that impressed Cynthia in this role. I don't why but something didn't click with her in this role. Cady has already proven she can play a character so polar opposite of Dixie as she did on ATwt. Interesting cady has two Emmys one for Dixie and one for Rosanna

Wasn't Chloe responsible for Chelsea designing in the first place? She used her money to help Chelsea in the first place didn't she? I hope Chelsea loses everything . She knows how much Chloe has lost and now she's taking her work away from her. Like Russell used to say on Fat Albert, "NC...NO CLASS"

      I suspect we would have had a few withdrawals next year if Israel had won. I don't think many people would relish going to Jerusalem as things stand now. Not to mention it would have been a prime target for terrorist attacks.   
    • And they've given us plenty. Sets, outdoor scenes, music licensing, etc. And that was the point of me using DAYS... so. It's obvious the casino set is not intended for long-term use, hence why it's likely it wasn't as evolved as the other community sets, etc.

    • I just had thought of how to save the Perkins family. (Inspired by Rituals) -- What if Marisa Perkins was Augusta Lockridge's sister? Fictionally, they could've both been local girls, one married rich and one married poor. Originally, I was going to suggest that Marisa be Sophia's sister, but then I realized Joe and Kelly would've been first cousins.  Of course, it would've truly inspired Sophia was if Rosa Andrade sister, with Rosa and Santana moving in to help CC raise the kids once Sophia disappeared.  While this could've avoided both gross CC and Santana affairs, the times were not right for a story about intersectional inequity.
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJxW5DLJLId/ Another World is my forever favorite soap opera. But it's finale is almost universally hated by its fans. What this is, is an edit where I've deleted everything I didn't like!!!
    • The Perkins family had potential to be a nice alternative to the more dysfunctional Capwells and wackier Lockridges... but I think a few factors did in the family. 1) Recasting of Joe Perkins 2) Bad casting of the Perkins Patriarch, and the one note writing for that character. 3) Lack of antagonistic interaction between the Capwells/Lockridges and Perkins.  (There was no awkwardness between Jade/Ted.. or CC disapproving of his son being friends with that Perkins girl, etc). 4) Wasting of Jade thus wasting the potential of the actress (which was realized on Days of Our Lives).  She had more potential than Laken oddly enough. The only member of the Perkins family that had appeal and a somewhat thought out story arc was Amy.  
    • @GymnastGuyThanks for posting the three new Capitol 1985 episodes today. The two labeled March 12, and 13 are misidentified. The March 12 labeled one actually aired November 12 1985 which I figured out because Kenny Rogers' movie Wild Horses aired November 12th and it was announced over the "March 12" Cap credits. In addition, Craig Carlson is listed in the April credits but not the March. Craig left Capitol sometime after July 1985 before he rejoined OLTL in the credits by October 15, 1985; he was replaced on Cap by Radcliffe and Hamner. In these posted episodes Radcliffe/Hamner names appear in the March 85 episodes but not in the April.
