Now that "Myrna" is free from Carter, I hope she goes all out to get Rick while Caroline is away/off canvas. The three actors are great together, so an illicit affair while Caroline is gone would be great and then Caroline fights to get him back. JY is being way underutilized because of LG's pregnancy!

You can bet your life on it that Oliver will come riding in on a horse in that theater as Aly's knight in shining armor in the next epi. That would be adorable though. If Aly doesn't want him after that she can give him to me.

I wonder how much Mediieval Times is paying B&B for all this product placement. What I like is that it works within the plot of the story and doesn't feel force. Its totally believable that Charlie, Pam and Aly would be into this stuff and doesn't quite feel like product placement even though it isn't quite subtle.

Darla's floating head is now in medieval gear. Gag me. I cant believe her head is a recurring character

The material for Oliver and Aly was a bit cheesy but cute. I wasn't sold on them at first but they work

I don't understand why they'd overly complicate things by giving Ivy a different mother than Jessica. I think they should've just made Maggie the mother for both of them. That way if they need to connect her further to the history of the show they could easily bring back Maggie or Jessica, characters viewers know, to center her. Instead they'll have to deal with learning new characters if they ever decide to bring either of her parents on.

well it IS product placement. It was initially just some random medieval thing that the characters were into and then somewhere down the line, the show made sure to specify that it was MT. They could have just left it as a generic place

Maya got SOME nerve. What a clueless twit!? Poor Carter! But I guess, to care about them is SOMETHING. And overall and it bears repeating, the show is doing a lot of stuff right these. Hope's overexposure is ridiculous though. It's always refreshing when she isn't on.

I just got back into B&B are after a hiatus of many years and I have to say I'm loving it.

I have a question about Justin. I know he forced Ridge out of the chopper, but is he a good character? Do people like him?

He's not on much. I wouldn't call him evil, but he is Bill's right hand man. Bill likes him, not many other people interact with him, unless I'm forgetting something. Katie didn't seem to hate him when she was CEO, but she knew he couldn't be trusted, of course.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
