I really loved Rose on ATWT. That was a depressing goodbye. She died a horrible, tragic death for no reason.

I has dropped out of GH when the other Emily showed up. I can't even remember her name. Rebecca? Was she a twin?

Kristen is a fun character, and Susan was pretty entertaining. Not the rest IMO.

Yeah, Rebecca was Em's twin. -_- That had to be one of the worse twin reveal stories.

I was hot and cold when it came to Rose. Somedays I liked her. Other days I didn't. It depended on the story. I was kind of glad that Babs had Will poison Rose. :lol: One Walsh twin was enough and I'll settle for Lily, the one I grew up watching (even though she irked my nerves too).

I'll always carry a torch for Vicky/Marley. They were the best set of soap twins IMO. At least when Anne Heche played them. I loved watching her play them during the SoapNet run (as it was a bit before my time), and "Who Shot Jake" furthered my love for them. I loved that Vicky championed Marley and wanted vengeance. Sucks because that'd all come crashing down when they made Vicky marry Jake at the end of AW--a decision I still don't care for to this day. I preferred them as frenemies or friends at the most. Lovers? Yuck. And Marley going cray cray and coming back as Ellen Wheeler didn't please me much either.

I dug Rose more than Lily. But I thought they killed her at the right time. I also think DAYS has made a mistake not bringing Susan back, maybe with a bit of orthodontic surgery.

I had a really bizarre twin story in mind for GL once, Blake and Ross's two sons, but it was inherently flawed in that it required them to be retconned into being identical when they were, of course, fraternal. My utterly sound logic was 'who gives a [!@#$%^&*], we never see them.'

I always wished that GL would've SORASED them when Phillip returned in the end. It would've been so good.

On my GL blog that I used to do on here, I intended for Kevin to be the upstanding twin like Ross and for Jason to embrace his Thorpe side. tongue.png He'd be like good ole' grandpa, Roger. I wanted Kevin to be conflicted as he really wanted to go into medicine, but went into law (like his late father) to appease Blake. Kevin, once believed to be Rick's son, would grow close to Rick--view Rick as a mentor, which would unnerved Blake. She still holds ill will towards him for his part in Ross' death, and she does not want her son anywhere near him.

Eventually, Kevin would've flunked out of law school, pissing off Blake, and he'd follow his passion apply for medical school; however, Blake isn't for it. She's not paying for him. Ed and Rick would try and coax her into allowing Kevin his dream, but she is not bending. She wants him to be like Ross. Holly (the sensible one) would undermine Blake's wishes and dig into a trust that Roger left for Kevin to help him pay for his tuition. Blake would be pissed but would eventually grow to accept Kevin's dream ... even though she still does not want him near Rick.

Jason, on the other hand, would've followed his grandpa's footsteps. He's a womanizer. A dreamer. An aspiring businessman. I wanted him to intern under Alan and Phillip at Spaulding while secretly dismantling the company with coaching from a bitter Alan Michael. Jason would hate the Spauldings for everything they've done to his dad and grandpa. Even though he and Phillip are related, his hatred for him is blind. I would've also had him target Rick by having him court Leah and turn her against her father, who Leah already has a strained relationship with. He could've been this generation's Roger.

Ugh! The possibilities with these two could've been endless. A modern day Cain (bad brother) vs. Abel (good brother). And eventually SORASING Clarissa and making her into a little neurotic minx like her grandmother and mother....wub.png

I hate P&G.

Pretty much loathed Rose from day one. But the reveal was hilarious, just for Holden's line "ugh....that's your real voice?" I was glad the beyotch died. At that point, even I missed Lily.

How has the epic Sonni/Solita saga not been mentioned yet?

      I found it to be a rather odd way to deal with a character departing for parts unknown.

      Today reminded me as to why I’m a little disappointed in the name that the new Pope chose

      Luckily, EJ and Johnny, and pretty much every other character saved today’s episode.  I didn’t expect Javi to be the one to save Sarah though, and I don’t mind it at all, because if it means that Javi is finally going to get his own identity/character, away from his douchy bf, I’m all for it. Javi’s scenes would’ve been a lot better had it not been for him. EJ and Johnny were the best part of today. Their conversation hit a lot of important beats and I’m so looking forward to seeing them play out. And now that EJ knows that Johnny is going to work for Xander, that opens up another dynamic to their storyline and to the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Tying them all together could be really good. There are so many story possibilities that can come out of this. And I thought Carson Boatman did a pretty good job again too.  I also liked that Johnny was there to comfort Chanel after everything that happened with Sarah. They’re so good together. But I do have mixed feelings about Chanel possibly forgiving Johnny so quickly. Hopefully, the question that she asked him at the end of today leads to more conflict for the two of them.  And yeah, still no changes in Alex’s character lol

      Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to grab this episode. I had a quick review of your rip because I was curious why it was 700MB and 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes of the episode is 3169 (opening credits at 5 minutes and again at 15 minutes). I thought we had the full HD version of ep.3170 on the YouTube channel, but it appears they added the wrong episode but labelled it 3170.

      I imagine Brad will blow through all the money in a year and come crawling back, just as Portia warned him not to.

      Well, since I'm still up unexpected past my growing-into-it bedtime. lol.   I finally got to rewatch Monday's. I even rewatched Friday's to take it all in. Now that we got the reveal and hit the climax of the SilkPress Sheila storyline, now we get to watch the aftermath and/or turns that come with its climax. So far, so good. Friday left us with three cliffhangers. And what I found surprising was how I felt about them over a rewatch.    I know some of you all felt a way about the dialogue during Kat vs Eva. I remember liking it more the first time around and it was nice for them to have these scenes to establish more of a frenemy vibe for them going forward. That still held up. But I found myself agreeing with you all about that dialogue. lol. Still, it was nice to have both of their POVs.   Second up was Silk Press Sheila vs the Duprees. And I was happy to get a brief spat with Dani in there. But the rest standouts for me was Anita and Martin. Haters can hate and given the tail end of the episode, I will agree to a fault, but Brandon has impressed and he was on fire on Monday and had great subtle work on Friday. And that subtle work made it all the better. Like I believe I said when I was watching...BC has a much better grip on his character and seems to be realizing what his tics are so has started to be able to know when to turn it up and when to dial it down. And for the most part (emphasis on most), he got that. Meanwhile, TT was giving fierceness, and I was here for every minute of it. Her reading SilkPress. Her being quip about it. Her 'BE STILL.' Ooooo she had a chokehold on me as Anita gave what I was expecting her to SilkPress. WORTH THE WAIT. I also loved Vernon's CHOOSE SILENCE. I wonder though if SilkPress will figure out Martin's condition from her observing Anita and Vernon with him.   And speaking of worth it...Oooo YES Nicole vs Ted was worth totally worth it. Oooooo I knew DD would nail it, and it was all so well done. The fight between the part of Nicole who is a therapist vs Nicole as a woman who wants to express how she feels. And being so angry. And how there would be moments when it would shoot out of her. And how she would restrain herself. But how she felt she should not be restrain. Just the levels of processing and layers. And DD played it all so well. I do wish Maurice gave just a little bit more, but overall, I thought he did a good job even if it was just Ted coming across as a deadbeat and not at all redeemable. And Kat being there for her mother was so beautiful.   Minority, but I love the montage though yes, it did run a little long. Given how the Duprees like to bond (and also as I mentioned from my own very recent family experiences), it did not seem out of place to me.     That said...let's see how the aftermath worked in today's episode. Overall. Cuz RC can be hit or miss.

      I wonder whose brilliant (
