True but honestly, it wasn't the mods I was concerned with. Confession time....

With all my years on this board, one of the things that has always baffled me is why some soaps have daily threads while others had monthly. Plus I've seen enough skirmishes over the ages where someone starts a thread instead of someone else, etc... Long story, short. I've never really understood the expectations of the community for that and when people fight about it I have flashbacks to Christmas 1976 a.k.a. little Marceline's worst Christmas ever. tongue.png Just kidding but honestly I've never been able to figure out the rules on that so I just guessed and clearly I guessed wrong.

I actually agree with some of this. I kinda wonder where this show goes after the main premise inevitably comes to an end? I suppose new characters and new storyline doors will have to become a reality at some point in the next season. I hope that this show gets a lot deeper at some point. We're talking about the world of hip hop, and there's a lot of stuff to be mimed there. I figure a show like this would be filled with evildoers coming and going left and right. I don't mind camp and humor. I just hope it doesn't overwhelm the show to the point where we don't get the real "meat and potatoes" out of it. Speaking of Wesley Snipes, I get the feeling that all is not lost on that front. I can certainly see him being brought on as Anika's menacing ex-husband, Tyrone.laugh.png

I told you that Cookie should work with Hakeem. Then the brothers don't have to compete.

This show is moving too fast again.

I wish that was Cookie to found out first .

Berrti or whatever his name is don't know the wild card is here, Cookie.

Anika is getting a bit more developed.

YASSS to Tianna working with Cookie. Love it. She's growing on me a ton in this episode.

Love Sister Cookie. LMAO. Cookie is everything. EVERYTHING.

I like seeing the flashback of Lucious and a young Andre as he hides the gun for Lucious and then gives him an alibi for Bunkie's murder. LOVED the shot of Vernon. He knows Andre lied.

Both these boys are lazy ass kids. Like I said both are the same side of a coin. Lucious especially Cookie is the brains. Anika needs to seat her ass in the corner

Cookie got a short ass dress on talking to a muslim(ms) sister.

So, Andre is also musical, & very protective of his father. Not only he was there for the drops & also hid away guns.

Cookie already knows another way.

    • I do love that the episode ended with Kat exclaiming when she was alone "Gotcha!"

      For real. Leslie is going to lock her up in a basement
    • It is amazing how everyone in GC just swaps partners and is instantly in love and their previous relationship never happened. All while everyone’s exes live in the same town and go to the exact same 4 places as each other.
    • No to Andre/Ashley. I'm not sensing any connection. Kat is playing a dangerous game going against Silk Press Sheila.
    • Today was definite a good episode day with surprising 1:1 scenes between Bill/Silk Press Sheila & SPS/Kat.  And the final long scene between SPS/Kat with the close ups and cliffhanger reminds me so much of old school P & G/Bell soaps. It fits since Judy Tate (script writer) wrote for P & G soaps for years and Zimmerman (breakdown writer) worked on both Bell soaps. I even liked the Ashley/Derek scenes only because it feels as if there is a point to the scenes (lead up to a break up perhaps).  Andre/Ashley having a scene tells me that the show is still testing them out.. and I think showing the growing disconnect between Derek/Ashley will eventually lead to the two possibly dating. NuTed.. he seems more humble and less boastful/confident than the previous Ted.  Perhaps the show felt the previous Ted couldn't play remorse/humble.. and they made the switch.  Time will tell. Lastly... it was a Dani free day

    • Goulet also had an odd way of speaking - very clipped and brisk, like she had just gotten out of a '40s film. She sounded out of breath. She had this on all her soaps. She was a better actress than Tolan and did well enough with Mary's grief over her marriage in her final week or two in the part but had no real spark.  I agree they may have found a better Mary if they had tried harder. For some reason the recasting for the Ryan kids was never what it should have been. I don't know what was going on with Barbie Siobhan. Maybe that was ABC.
    • The finale peaked at 31.1 rating when Katherine hit Bobby with her car.
    • Exactly. And it's not like Stephanie didn't live a life when Hennig played her.  There are so many stories and relationships you can mine from her past.  And we just got......a book and sex with Alex or the random Bobby backstory which no one needed  I trust new writing can get the character back on track.  Like I said, I do think Abigail Klein has charisma.
    • Today (Thurs May 15) eppy not on paramount *menu* but it's on cbs.com. If you take the cbs episode URL and substituted paramountplus for cbs in the same URL, you get the episode on pplus https://www.cbs.com/shows/video/Huj7bAYV8H6T038u9cXam3bk6QXNkM2Y/ https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/video/Huj7bAYV8H6T038u9cXam3bk6QXNkM2Y/
