Josh Griffith's tenure was just comatose/boring.

Lynn Latham was fascinating for a short time because it was such a huge change from Bell/Alden/Smith and some of it had potential. But she was arrogant and egomaniacal and had to fire everyone in the writers room to bring in her Knots Landing team and fill the team with writers assistants (Dufour, Alberger, Staneart) or nobodies like Ahern/McLaughlin and Gottesfeld/Bennett.

MAB had potential and her first stories were someone watchable. And she brought back many staff members fired by Latham.

But Altman/Pass/Phelps the show is just tacky, uninspired, dumb.

So sad

Neil is so going to get his sight back just in time to eyewitness Devon and Hilary doin' the wild thang.

Of course he will proceed like a trouper, as if he's still blind, and probably torture Devon and Hilary bleeding his then-fake blindness for all it's worth.

THAT I am actually looking forward to watching! biggrin.png

Priceless. I would laugh harder if this wasn't a huge possibility. Hilary and Devon will get a baby. Not sure if the other father will be Neil or some other guy but a WTD will also happen. Just cause this show loves baby stories. And no baby can be concieved on a soap without drama. Its just a given for this new young couple.

Here we are, worrying over whether Neil Winters will ever regain his sight. I ask you, how LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING is that? All he needs now is a malignant growth on his brain.

Or she could be really callous and !@#$%^&*] Devon's brains out right in front of blind Neil and claim she's doing Pilates. At this point, I think I am up for just about anything,

That will ease the concious of the viewers as the root for Hilary and Devon to be together. I definitely think someone else catches Neil's eye (pun intended) before Hilary sleeps with Devon. Might be a Leslie redo. Shelby did emphasize how "foooooond" Leslie was of Neil.

    • Uh, yeah, huh?!!! Seriously, that was a brilliant line but its acumen is strictly from how hilarious. We imagine Joss in Carly's kitchen breaking the news that she's realized she's gay & Carly is unconcerned & then drops that it's Emma she's in love with ... time comes to a screeching halt!!! I think Moss would likely be thrown hard against the wall. Can you imagine Carly & Robin as mothers of the brides together? 
    • @DRW50 Thanks for these. I had a procedure on my eyes and was just okayed for limited screen time the other day, but it is in short periods until Tuesday, when the doctor clears me.  I'll be adding in bits here and there, but Hoppers will be "hopping" after that. Upcoming: Rest in Peace, Denise Alexander, Ruth Buzzi and Priscilla Pointer Updating:   Max Gail, @Xanthe -- Will Lyman, who was lost in the shuffle a year ago, but his update from last year will be typed up;  New: Michelle Hurd and Shanola Hampton and others I'll b updating the edit-able profiles, too.
    • Upcoming on Friday

      The shoulders and sleeves are too tight. He'd benefit from a larger size. The yellow arrows show where the shoulder cut should actually be placed in my opinion. I don't mind the granpa fashion per se, I just have an OCD with sizes LOL
