Dena was the one who wanted will Dead and Christopher was still filming scenes with Zak Henri (Henry) in December so I dont see them making Paul straight

why is nobody talking about how Daniel is now going by the name Dario...greasy tan guy...same wardrobe.

Cuz I like me some ~~Tony Santos~~ Dario. Until he beds 3 generations of one family and saves all their lives along with a dozen other Salem ladies, he will not inherit the crown.

Oh, that's right, he only flirted with Lisa Rinna's Billie. It seemed the logical choice that they would pair him up with Julie Pinson's Billie back around 2008, but had she just left or was about to?

lol I loved today's episode. There has been so much blah recently with Summer and Ava and Chase and Hope and Philip and allllll that nonsense but I honestly thought today was great considering the constraints the show is under. I liked the way all three relationships featured: Chad/Abby, Abby/JJ and even Chad/JJ (I liked Jennifer's phonecall too)

March 29, 20169 yr

I don't really like Abby, but yesterday's episode that had pretty much nothing besides her walking around the mansion in fear was 10x better than anything recently with the Hernandez clan, Summer story, and warehouse nonsense. I liked it.

I thought the episode was really good, and unique. I just wished there would've been more long-shots. So good to have the DiMera mansion set back--it was as much as a character in yesterday's ep. as Abby, Chad, JJ, Thomas, "Ben," and Jennifer. I wish Harold was there! lol. When exactly did they get rid of Eliana?

The problem, though is that it was another horrible break in momentum. After all the John/Hernandez and Maggie/Summer/Brady stuff . . . no Mon. pickup. And this felt like it was LATE at night, and in the middle of a crazy storm, complete with a power outage . . . and we're supposed to be having a party at The Edge for Brady & Theresa's engagement announcement on this same night??? The Stefano special had the same effect on the timeline. The episodes are structured wonderfully again (for the most part), but through the week, there seems to be such wacky planning with breakdowns . . . maybe this is symptomatic of their insane block taping???

I just saw yesterdays show and I dont know what you guys are talking about. The episode was boring and terrible

Monday's epi was cute but unnecessary, more uninspired. The story would have been more interesting if Ben hadn't escaped and Abby started to slowly breakdown over the months of abuse etc. We could have rooted for her and it would still be campy and fun but have a bit of depth. This premise is just silly and having JJ/Robin, copping it up with his Weho costume police uniform and that toy cap gun. Lawdy.....

Agreed, I think Blake became a woman who learned from her mistakes and grew up. I too wanted them to be the core couple after the Tori thing, as a matter of fact, around Wheeler after Simon left I wanted them to move into the Bauer house..( I would have Blake say that this is the closet thing she knew as a home )SORAS the kids, and bring Sam back..Dinah would have a very contentious relationship with her, as she would be jealous of Ross and Sam's relationship, and Blake and Dinah would have that tension (ya, know cause she killed his brother) it would be a core family that had some fissures leading to good drama. But now, Wheeler and company though the Coopers should be the core.

Agree that great minds can think alike :)
In terms of Derek, I see the show doing one of two things based on the most recent episodes that featured him.
1) They do the gradual fade-out of the character until he stops appearing and is occasionally mentioned by Jacob (i.e. still living and existing in town, just not being seen). We saw some evidence with him having a group of co workers he's friends with, plus a female co worker interested in him... so possibly we see him regain his walking and go back to his life with the Fire crew and eventually we stop seeing them on air.
2) His mentioning to Jacob that he hopes to win Ashley back signals that perhaps the dark side we saw glimpses of has been hidden and will rear itself if she appears to be moving on with a new guy.
In terms of Ashley, the show seems committed to keeping her character on the show especially since she was shown in the Thanksgiving episode having a quiet day with Jan and Mona as they discuss Black Friday shopping, food, and other day to day matters... so I think delving into her backstory in terms of who her father is would be a good place for the show to go while keeping her as a good friend to Naomi, Shanice, and a good nurse during medical stories.
Perhaps one of the children of the handsome new doctor could be her love interest down the line.

Re: 1978. I'm glad the unedited version of the episode complete with commercials is available. The one that has been posted several years ago had several segments missing. I like Barbara's long hair here. Dr. Steven Farrell didn't last very long I take it since she is re-connecting with Tom (Tom Tammi) by 1979. The actor playing Steven (Phil Peters) was the real-life husband of Lenore Kasdorf (Rita GL).

Oh, how I wish we'd gotten to see Ross deal with his teenage sons. I loved his relationships with Phillip and Sam, but he really deserved to be seen with his own kids (other than the horror that became Dinah). The boys simply disappeared off canvas after either the Nursery Stalker or the affair with Tori.

What I liked about Bloss is that I liked how they grew to be the stable couple- the closest to an Ed and Mo in their prime. Especially after the Tori story when their extra-marital exploits were in the past. I wanted them to SORAS the three kids, along with Dinah and with Phillip's family as Ross's extended family would really be solid core family material.
With that said, I was rooting against Bloss in 1999 as I really liked the Ross/India pairing-- but that just turned out to be a waste of MKA.

They did actually resolve who shot Austin over a year later (it was Cyrus, as part of his hasty exit story). That was a last minute save though clearly when they forgot lol.

Talkin' 'Bout TV Movies

I love those old TV movies, especially the ones from the 70's and 80's. The ABC movie of the week had a ton of them. Like
Satan's School for Girls (1973)
All My Darling Daughter's (1972)
Gidget Gets Married (1972)
The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped (1974)
The Two Worlds of Jenny Logan (1979)
The Boy in the Plastic Bubble (1976)
Death Cruise (1974)
Here is the 70's ABC opening. The theme music "Nikki" was composed by Burt Bacharach and named for his daughter with Angie Dickinson.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

The return of sitcoms' popularity in the mid-'80s was a real thing, but the crash of the wealth-based nighttime soap genre was resonate and self-induced.

There was an effectively grim finality to the mood of the cliffhangers in the Spring of 1985: Bobby's death, the Moldavian massacre, the return of Val's babies... and they felt as if they could have ended right there (and perhaps they should have, although I would have sorely missed S10 of Dallas, S6 of FC, and Season 9 of Dynasty , and the next five years of KNOTS as they singularly maintained quality).

But, wow, these shows just fell apart post-Spring 1985. They stopped being character dramas after a while, and just started trying to "impress" viewers in some superficial way and to "fake it" somehow.

What a painful, unnecessary slide it was. But once these shows seemed to lose their identities, their sense of self, their momentum into the dung heap couldn't be slowed.
