I know, right? Justin may be $Bill's best bud, but he has always worked to do what's best for SP. I liked Justin's reminding her that he is the father of her nephew. It's like Katie treats him like a stranger. Family is only relevant when Katie is the victim.

I was really disappointed in the Karen decision, but I did enjoy the twist with Brooke still having the papers. I was still happy to see JJ. I do like the interaction between her and Bill. It's also nice that Karen has power of Bill - at least one character needs that. Bill doesn't view her as an equal, but she's proving that isn't necessarily the case.

I had to think long and hard about what you were saying here, but isn't he a stranger? I completely forgot Marcus was Donna and Justin's son. What a joke! As many trips as Donna has made to SP, she has no scenes with Justin and Marcus no longer exists!

Friday's episode was STELLAR.

The pacing was phenomenal. Primetime-like IMHO.

The directing was flawless, with those beautiful mansion shots.

The dialogue was intriguing, and the final twist was too. I can't believe how good B&B has gotten. I don't want to sound like a certain broken record that torments this board LOL, but I really think this is the best soap opera we've had in the last 10+ years.

The only so-so part was that Maya twit. Why does she care about Oliver and Ally so much? And she is as charismatic as an IKEA armchair can be.

I know this is one thing that has bothered me about B&B. When Donna/Marcus found each other - there was some really touching scenes between them. I really wish we'd see more of Justin/Donna & Marcus. Instead of simply having Donna/Katie rehash at SP all the time - I'd love to see Justin in the room for some of them. And, yes, they treat Justin like a stranger in the Logan family (hypocrites). Shoot even Deacon gets more acknowledgment than Justin and that is wrong.

We all know you just need enhanced lips to fight death!

As for the anniversary party pics: interesting that Tony, Kristen, Dayzee and Bridget were present… So they are at least available and could return if Brad Bell calls. As Justin and Marcus were mentioned, these two can stay away though. Marcus never never never caught on with me; probably because he entered at a time when I found the show to be at its worst and Justin never became a proper character to begin with. The actor is pretty solid though and could work really well on Y&R.

I'm surprised Justin is still on the show. We never saw Justin have any relationship with Brooke or Katie. Hardly with Donna really. We didn't even get to see them break up. Hell, even Marcus is legally Eric's, which was truly bizarre. It was all a wasted opportunity, but that's what this show is known for.

    • 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!
