What is it with the notion that all the characters to appear in an episode have to show up before the opening credits? Mid-episode or even towards the end appearances are great and unexpected!

I hate that! On todays GH, Olivia and Ned appear out of nowhere halfway through the show and that annoyed me. IMO, when stories/characters randomly appear in the middle of an episode, it feels choppy and inconsistent and breaks the flow. I like the episode's threads to be set up in the opening segment and followed through in a coherent manner till the end.

Oh, I agree with this. I don't think any new story should pop up 30mins into a 36 minute show. But what I meant is, if a story that's been set up from the beginning features a character that doesn't show up until later, I'm fine with that.

As The World Turns used to have characters that didn't appear in the first half-hour appear in the second and did it quite often at times.

Eve as the audience surrogate ftw - when she told SalemJesus that he wasn't omniscient, I was all hallelujah, amen!

This was me when she said that.

I watched Monday's ep for the Susan scenes. They were wonderful. She's just infectious! Agreed w/others on Eileen's accent but the mannerisms, facial expressions and motherly shade more than made up for it. Golden!

My fave was how she said she was having "premonitions" like Celeste laugh.png (Susan: "Remember her?"). OMG, remember the recast Celeste? I had forgot it even happened or what she even looked like. She wasn't half bad but Tanya Boyd is still so missed!

The scenes with Sami were the best and the lead up to them was even better. The sage. LOL. Ali's reactions were perfect. I just adore her. She's looking radiant and flawless as ever. Meanwhile, James Scott looks a hot ass mess next to her.

The rest was beyond boring. What is Hope doing? Why is she out @ dinner with that poisonous axed soap hopper? She should be grieving or searching endlessly for Bo right now. I can't believe she's divorcing him. They've handled this very poorly!

I never could stand Kayla/MBE. Ever. I got the best catnaps during her scenes with that stiff girl

Let me know when JJ & Blaire F each others brains out

Daniel was just as disgusting & loathsome as I remember

I believe Paige learns that Jack raped Kayla and then Eve is gonna tell her that JJ grabbed her in hopes this breaks them up. Put fear in Paige that JJ may rape her

Oh, so the story gets even better and more interesting then?

That was 100% sarcasm. Ugh. Not looking forward to this crap.

I really liked today's episode.

Obviously everything Susan was great (I wasn't that impressed by Eileen's accent though) - throwing shade at Sami was amazing, I love that they remembered that Susan hated Sami back in the day, although Susan had left town by the time Sami was on deathrow. James Scott was awful in those scenes - it was like he was struggling to not break out laughing.

Eve as the audience surrogate ftw - when she told SalemJesus that he wasn't omniscient, I was all hallelujah, amen!

Kristen and Stefano phone calls are the best.

MBE looked nice today

Hope and AIden were cute.

LOL!

Marlena and Sami had scenes at the start of the episode and Marlena said she would pop by to see the kids.

Yeah, I missed the first few minutes of the show and didn't see Marlena until then so I just assumed at the time she didn't show up until then and it felt so random at the time. I realized she had a scene with Sami in what I missed afterwards.

MBE did look nice.

So Daniel was disgusting??? WTF did he do now except defend JJ...And that ugly Eve is not disgusting..Closeups make me sick..If she has sex with JJ they writers are clueless..He would have to be drunk out of his mind. She looks like his grandma.

While I'm glad to see Susan again, she will be played for lighter material and be humorous I'm guessing. In the current style of the show and in general, it doesn't work when the character is meant to be threatening and ominous, but instead comes accross as a parody of a villain. One could say that Stefano could be described that way too, but JM transcends that - TP doesn't in my opinion.

Eileen Davidson is so good..My husband freaked when he saw her..He only recently started watching. Susan is a mess for sure..Great job.

Eve's the antagonist of the current storyline, she's supposed to act like that, unlike Daniel who's supposed to be a hero but in actuality he's a chauvinistic, narcissistic, misogynistic pig who likes to rough up women and make them feel worse than crap

Susan's return was FABULOUS! I loved every minute. Was kinda hoping for some Marlena/Kristen flashbacks though and I loved it that Kristen and Susan got the cliffhanger.

It was nice to see Kayla outside of Daniel and therefore watchable. I feel like its been forever.

Does anyone know how long Susan is back?

  • Member

How can someone get up in arms every time SC or the character of Daniel is dissed, then turn around and call another person on the show ugly? What am I missing here?

  • Member

Don't try to understand it...it's like trying to understand how anyone could be a fan of Daniel.
