This week has been possibly worse than the 2006 ice storm, Out of the Ashes, the masquerade ball bombing, Victor&Nikki's wedding shootout, and last year's diamond heist. Pratt taking the worst of Melrose and Sunset Beach and with Passanate still on the staff they're also still recycling her ATWT stories too apparently.

Ever since Phelps had taken over the show has been stale and mediocre but never reaching the levels of offensiveness of MAB and Latham. That other shoe has dropped.

Unintentionally funny/hilarious were the same words I used about a week or so ago while describing how I felt like laughing (and did) seeing Neil's hungry bear look while watching Hillary and Devon embrace through the window at the AC. Then watching him clutch at his briefcase like he was coveting explosives only to discover he was hording photographs, the same phrase came to mind.

Now watching Victor and Jack bicker like the two old critics who sit in the balconey on The Muppet Show while the UG crumbles around them...my first reaction was to LAUGH because it was frickin' hi-larious!laugh.png

Is there anyone I can take seriously on this show anymore?

Thank goodness for CG! She does no how to deliver without going OTT. It really is amazing - every actor she works with is better in her scenes. I actually liked Abby today. The best thing they did was bring her back without Cassie baggage.

I watched M,T,Fr - the show is as horrible as I thought - at least stuff is happening and there's plenty of dialogue and side conversations with various characters some of whom don't regularly interact much. I don't get those featuring Courtney so much - I've always said the actress is miscast - if the character is going to stay, please recast or at least have you go permanently undercover working sexrings, etc. And, darn, GR looks really old now and even more inappropriate in this story.

Glad that all of them didn't freeze in that snow with no hats, etc.

I doubt Sony/CBS goes trolling non CBS & Sony affiliated messageboards looking for how to produce their shows. People expressing themselves on a messageboard is hardly the same as phone or letter writing campaigns (which I heard they rarely regard anyway) or even flying airplanes over the studios, so I wish jonnysbro would give it a rest already. rolleyes.gif

Hopefully Paul will expose her lies, she'll be kicked off the force and off the show. There are only a couple of actors I will trash because they are lazy, she is just terribly miscast. Just like HK was exposed this week in a surprisingly bad way. Throwing all of them together may have been intentional as they try to figure which of that set to keep, recast or feature more. The clear winner - CG - I know shocking. The clear losers - Summer, Courtney, and, of course, pedo Kevin. The first may benefit from some attention and direction, the latter two can please exit the show. How about Kevin write some fanfic where he and a female cop make a suicide pact after covering up a murder and shaming the GCPD?

dont forget that Abby who continues to be dreadful no matter what they throw at her. What is the purpose of her character?

Why did they cast Fen and Noah with actors that look so much alike? It would have worked if they were related but I keep finding myself confusing them

      Call me crazy but I still think there’s hope for them. Their scenes today proved it to me. I loved how they were there for each other and talked about what’s going on with their fathers. And how Belle helped Shawn get a lead on Kevin’s roommate. Their relationship, at the moment, seems so natural. In a way, it reminds me of how Sami/Rafe were after they got divorced. And while I do like Shawn/Jada and EJ/Belle as couples, I’m looking forward to going along for the ride and (hopefully) seeing Shawn and Belle find their way back to each other. And I still think there’s hope for Gabi and JJ too. I don’t see them as an endgame couple but I do enjoy them together. Javi was a pain in the ass though and kinda messed up their scenes. And also messed up Gabi’s reunion with Arianna. Speaking of Arianna, I’m glad that she’s back in Salem. And she did have a point about Gabi and Javi. But yeah, Javi’s still a pain in the ass lol his scenes with Leo weren’t bad though, surprisingly. Mostly because they were centered around him and not Leo. That definitely wouldn’t have happened a few months ago It’s too soon to make any judgments about the actress playing Arianna but I’m looking forward to seeing her storyline. And to seeing the interactions that she has with other characters on the canvas. Hopefully, she won’t be friendly with the guy who tortured and sexually assaulted her fathers.  I also enjoyed Julie’s reunion with Doug III. Her being so stubborn and resistant today was classic Julie. I still kinda feel bad for Doug III though. 
    • I have a new storyline for the "diverse" 7th Heaven reboot! The WASP family has a foster child called Gilberta. She's an AA kid whose mother is addicted to crack marijuana! The devil's seed! Either way, she's been integrated into this WASP family and shock/horror, Marijuana Mommy comes back! What will happen? Well, I will tell you - first it seems like Marijuana Mommy has her [!@#$%^&*] together and she gets her kid back! The WASPs are sad. Then it turns out that Marijuana Mommy is still on the dope and selling tricks talking to strange men on the corner! Plus, foster child (Gilberta) talks about how much she loves the WASPs. The episode ends in tears with Gilberta back with the WASPs! Also, Marijuana Mommy goes away, acknowledging how much better parents the WASPs are. The end. Why haven't The Great American Family hired me yet? I can feel the audience will watch this and cry a lot of tears.
    • I’m thinking Taylor’s resurrection a few months later caused the show to change course and cut her return short. If true, I wonder what the original plan for this storyline would have been? Amnesiac Ridge getting Morgan pregnant again?

    • re the penthouse.  I can't recall exactly but I think that it was used  for several years. Leslie moved to the cottage. Was that when she married Rick or before? Anyway, maybe Tracey took up residence? Don't know whether she bought it from Lesley, or they just re-used the set pretending it was a different place.
