I watched the 11/26 eppy out of curiosity and it was possibly the best 30 minutes of soap I've seen in years!

Lindsey Godfrey is hardly a great actress but she ant TK are selling this story. The longing while re-committing to the marriage was so damn soapy. It was wonderful. Ric, the bastard, assuring his lover, Maya, she will have her man and everything that she believes should come with it. Privately screwing as Ric goes back to his sham of a marriage? So damn soapy and I loved it! Looked like Bell retired only to have Hope and her Himbos return on the next eppy.

With KKL off clodhopping and KM on her way out, see what happens when TIIC are forced to actually write for the other characters? You get great soap.

KM will be missed; Hope not-so-much. Wish she could've had a break like KKL - it's been great being Brooke-free for three months. I think a lot of these characters should be rotated out with two or three month breaks. It impacts B&B more because it's a short show, so the A stories really eat it up disproportionately. Will be interesting how they recast the character - no way Hope just disappears while preggers.

I can see Hope going off to have her baby somewhere Quinn can't find her...maybe even leaving without telling Wyatt because he'll clearly tell his mother. Then Hope will come back a "new woman" with her baby.

I don't mind KM but I am sick of Hope too. I love Rena Sofer but her stalker obsession with Hope is getting old as well. I want to see her spun into a different story with Hope off the canvas. Maybe Brooke comes back willing to give Deacon a chance and then oops...he's with Quinn.

Well said Andrea, but I do think LG is a great actress, she's improved from a few years ago, she was really green then lol

It feels like two different shows. The show is amazing when it's Ridge/Caroline/Maya/Rick/Bill/Katie as opposed to being awful when Wyatt/Hope/Liam are on

I think Linsey said it best she's at the "adult table" lol sums it up perfectly

I just don't see how they can write out Hope at a time like this unless it's a violent/tragic exit. I guess we'll see.

LOL at the creepy nursery music they played every time they cut to Quinn. I generally enjoy her but she is way too pressed now and annoying me.. I missed how she got upstairs, please don't tell me hussy climbed a tree.

    • I am sure it was not what JJ thought was going to happen with Lucky or Lucky/Liz and I don't think JJ will ever be back.  That was just an awful return and his

      return in 2010 wasn't anything great lol.
    • I don't think this is anything but a pause. I think there's a lot more of Liz/Lucky coming up ahead. Think of it as a classic fakeout.  Edit to ADD: Well, crap. Ignore me. Outta there. 
    • Now she used to be on the Directing rotation, so is this when she was off of it for awhile & now is back?

    • A Day Off from the Drama Felt Like a Breath of Fresh Air Honestly, I didn’t mind the change of pace today. The episode had a lighter tone, and it was refreshing—like coming up for air after all the intensity lately.  But, did anyone else notice that Bo's hospital room is larger than Marlena's living room? Chad and Leo: A Surprisingly Enjoyable Pairing I actually enjoy Leo in scenes with Chad. It's a shame Chad hasn't been given more lighthearted material before—he’s much funnier than I expected. At least we were spared the referenced Ari/Leo interaction (dodged that bullet). Gabi’s Hair: A Curl Too Far Let’s talk about Gabi’s hair. Those curtain curly-q bangs? Ridiculous. Not only unattractive but completely impractical. And if she doesn’t like living with Leo, then… move out. Yes, it’s Rafe’s house, but she’s the CEO and titular head of GabiChic. If Chanel and Johnny can afford rent, I’m sure Gabi could swing Li Shin’s old place. Rafe and the FBI: Why Though? I still don’t understand the narrative function of Rafe suddenly working for the FBI—unless it’s to explain why he’s perpetually off-screen. Side note: Has anyone told Elon’s team that the Bureau is hiring middle-aged men who talk to stuffed animals and are apparently set to retire with full pensions in less than a decade? Doug3 and the Mystery of the Necklace Now, Doug3 is suddenly concerned about the age of consent? Not touching that. Also—whatever happened to his friendship with Sofia? And how did he manage to find a loan shark when he only hangs out with high school girls?  How much could he have borroweed?  He changed his name and moved out of town, so he must owe enough for the loan shark to hire repo men to find him and photograph underaged women. But the real head-scratcher: why is he asking Leo who bought the necklace? It’s Melinda. He knows it’s Melinda. Was this filmed out of order? Or did she fence it? I’m confused. Gwen Mention #1 (And we all know what happens when you say her name three times…) Cat: The Kookiness Has Worn Thin I’ve tried. Really. But I don’t like Cat. I don’t like her secret. I don’t like that she’s never at work covering Marlena’s phones. I don’t like her brand of kooky. I don’t like that she stopped blow-drying her hair. Honestly, I never invested much in her character because I figured she’d be gone by now. But now? I just don’t like her.
    • I'm actually stunned at the writing for Liz and Lucky today. It feels like a writing team that's out to make JJ look as bad as possible -- immature, irresponsible, and ridiculous. He comes off as a complete loser.
    • C-sign!!! Seriously, these numbers it's time to have a cyber party! #3 10/12 last weeks
    • Well, what a waste of JJ and Liz/Lucky. I sincerely thought Natalia was going to die in a drunk driving accident today, but I guess not.  
    • Hhahahhahahhahhaha. Karma has begun her job.
