I think it's added pressure now that Kelly has opened her own clothing store - Kelly's closet. She is selling beauty and she is the FACE. Add Dancing to the stars to the mix and you can understand why she felt she needed to do something to "rejuvenate" herself.

Katherine Kelly Lang looks FABULOUS! I don't give a fcuk what yall say. She looks the same to me and doesn't look like she's had drastic plastic surgery. Now onto the show, I'm trying my hardest to catch up and am in the Paris trip from the beginning of August! One episode until Felicia and the show is actually VERY good. I love that the ensemble feel has been maintained and the main story shifts from Hope/Liam/Wyatt to the Brooke/Ridge/Katie stuff for a few days. Also we are consistantly seeing Maya, Ally, Oliver, etc. so it just feels more like 90s B&B. I'm loving the show! Slowly Ivy is becoming interesting to me as well and I like that it seems like they've kept Maggie as her mother. They mention her loving tabloids so it just seems to fit. I wish they would do a reunion and have Maggie and Jessica come back at some point. It doesn't have to be a major long term thing, but a few episodes would be nice. Maybe they could even have Lauren cut a deal with Ivy with Fenmore's since Lauren and Maggie were friends. There is a lot they can do with this character if the so choose.

You are absolutely correct about the double-standard. I'm certainly not judging her because as I said "It's her life and her face." It is rather sad that she feels that kind of pressure because she still is very attractive and, obviously, has a great body. I'm hoping those pictures are just really, really bad and that whatever she did settles nicely. After seeing that stunning HT botch her beautiful face, I don't want to see KKL that way. Fortunately, HT has been looking so much better the past couple of years.

KKL has been ageing rapidly in the last 3 years. It was pretty much stable till middle 2012. From then on, it's like from week to week she looks more tired and worn out. Nothing wrong with that actually, normal process. But I knew she would have to do something about it, because the character asks for it. Deacon telling wrinkled, 60+ looking Brooke she is the hottest woman in the world was pretty pathetic. Brooke is meant and written to be young-ER woman, still getting pregnant, still [!@#$%^&*] the wrong guy.

Yep. If I were her plastic surgeon - THE EYES FIRST. remove the bags, then just a little botox to relax that angry wrinkle between her eyebrows - she's been relaxing it on and off since 2001 or 2002. it has re-appeared couple of times and then dissapeared. then maybe a light face peel and some extensions for volume nothing to her georgeous lips!. then Brooke will be ready for her storyline with Wyatt.

    • Also, the lawsuit story was not the right story to bring Naomi and Bill into a court battle since those types of lawsuits are usually resolved via settlements.
    • I know that Sara did eventually become Carrie's therapist, but I was curious if the show had her make comments regarding Carrie's stunts of making it seem as though Justin was cheating on Jackie.  Given that Justin cheated on Sara with both Jackie and Brandy, I wondered if it was wise of her to counsel Carrie given the conflict of interest involved. @DRW50I think once Adam/Sara end up married.. Marland didn't see any reason to explore Sara's personal life after the actor playing Adam was released.  I know that Sara lasts until at least Christmas 1982 on the show.. but I don't think she ended up staying on for very long into 1983. The period between Marland quitting and Pam Long starting was the perfect time to clean house on characters that had outgrown their usefulness  (i.e. Ben, Evie, Sara, Jennifer, Morgan).. and tying up stories started by Marland that were too complex (Mona Enright, Mark/Jennifer/Amanda triangle).
    • Unpopular opinion:  The focus on the soap opera tropes over the mysteries and crimes was partly what did the show in.  Also, featuring characters not involved in the legal, police, and criminal elements also hurt the show and took away what made it unique. Featuring characters like Jody, Raven, Sky, etc hurt the show long term.  The show ABCified starting in 1976/1977 and then went through a youthification period starting in 1981.  
    • I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
    • It's been a while, but we have seen the foyer to Bill and Hayley's house as well as the exterior entrance to their house. The foyer was first seen in the premiere episode when Hayley met Vanessa at the house.
    • There's still a year or two before Larkin arrives. Joel is there already. EON does noticeably youthify, although I think they carry it off. Admittedly I haven't seen most of the Jody stories, which from what people here have said aren't great.
    • I don't mind the actor who plays Brian. He's fine. The problem for me is that Paige seems so wishy wishy. She doesn't seem to have much of a personality at this point so I don't see why Brian would be so besotted with her. She just lurches from one trauma to the next. Granted, it's only been a month, but she's not as vibrant as April or even Deborah who has had minimal screen time by this point.  I do worry about the influence of GH on the show since I'm in fall of 1979 and characters have conversations and there's not the drive to "youthify" the show. However, I think Marceau (sp?) is gone. He was given a rather tame sendoff. How long was the actor on the show? I hope this is not a sign of things to come. I worry the show is setting up a murder mystery around one of my favorite characters and I will be mightily annoyed. I also noticed in recent Search for Tomorrow episodes uploaded to YT that the actors playing Logan and Eliot showed up. I don't watch the show but they were in the screencaps. When does Larkin Malloy show up or has he already left? Joel Crothers hasn't shown up either unless I've blinked and missed him.
    • Dr Linden. She treated Vanessa's drug addiction (although Vanessa seemed to forget that by Henry's suicide attempt) , and she's mentioned during Reva's PPD. Although I can't recall if she's actually shown right off the top of my head. She probably was temporarily shelved when Sonni was a therapist (between her crazy times) And I think Billy sees her after he falls off the wagon after Reva's death.
