The show keeps getting better and better. Just truly marvelous stuff all around. Brown is getting all the Emmys. Totally did not expect Kevin to go through with going to New York. I'm glad Toby made it clear he doesn't usually make all these grand gestures for people he's been on a few dates with. And I really need to know what happened to Jack. Whether he's dead or not, it'll be devastating.

 

And SUPER thrilled about the ratings. You go, THIS IS US!

I didnt read the article but is it a joke? He was just on The Talk yesterday and said it didn't bother or care if he hasn't been in the buff and considering his mom watches the show he didn't think she'd be too pleased to see him....LOL

I just binged episodes 3-17 in the last two days so I could catch up to the season finale this week.  My God, what an emotional show! I normally don't cry or get tears when watching TV shows or movies, but I got tears on two occasions.  The first one was when Kevin left his play to comfort Randall because he knew from that phone call that Randall was having a breakdown.  I have a brother, so that scene hit me hard.  The second one was when Randall comforted Kate during William's funeral.  "I'm so sorry you had to go through this twice, Randall." And then Randall tells Kate about his dream. I've been waiting for a really good Randall/Kate scene all season.

I too was expecting to see Jack die in the finale, but I'm so glad he didn't.  I didn't want to see Jack die in such a negative way (drunk driving) or when he's in a negative place (with Rebecca).  That fight between Jack and Rebecca was really good and I loved how it was all in one shot.  I like how they met - Rebecca ditching her blind date, and Jack forgetting about this blind date.  And it was their meeting that made Jack stop his plan to steal the money and steered him away don't a bad path.  It was his "big break."  I want to see more of their beginning, and I also want to see Randall and Beth's beginning. 

 

I just can't believe a show like this is doing excellent in the ratings.  Usually these type of shows don't do well, ratings wise.

It is a risky move because it will be pre-empted for 6 weeks for Thursday Night Football in November / December and then again for two weeks in February for the Winter Olympics.  NBC is giving it the spot airing after the Super Bowl.   I hope all the pre-emptions don't scare the viewers away.

I don't really care that much about ratings anymore - as long as the show is still good and its ratings are ahead of other NBC shows (which it should be even with this move).  I think when the show ends (hopefully it'll last 6-7 seasons which is perfect for a heavily serialized show), it will go out of its own and not by cancellation.

I think they were seeing the weakened ratings for Scandal and decided it was time to move in on the time slot.

 

Also, I believe it'll only have 18 episode seasons, so this way they can drag their seasons out until May I guess. I personally wouldn't have moved it, but meh...

      Guiding Light Discussion Thread

      I remember Evie's last scene and it was in Justin Marler's house and she is telling them that Ben is asking for a reconciliation and she is going to join him. I always have wondered what Janet Grey did after leaving Guiding Light (I know from the interview with Kathleen Cullen that she did have a baby and they stayed in touch for awhile).

      https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/11/trump-accept-luxury-plane-gift-qatar Donald Trump is reportedly ready to accept a luxury plane described to be a “palace in the sky” being offered to the US president as a gift from Qatar’s royal family, almost immediately igniting accusations of bribery and corruption as well as commensurate criticism. citing multiple sources familiar with the matter, ABC reported (link) that the Trump administration was preparing to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8, a jumbo jet from the Qatari royals that was estimated to be about $400m. Trump would then use the 13-year-old plane as the new Air Force One until shortly before the conclusion of his second Oval Office stint, at which point it would be transferred to his presidential library foundation no later than 1 January 2029. The luxury gift from Qatar is expected to be announced next week during Trump’s three-day tour of the Middle East that includes Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, ABC reported. Trump toured the opulent plane in February while it was parked at the West Palm Beach international airport, ABC added. According to ABC’s sources, Trump’s attorney general Pam Bondi and his top White House lawyer David Warrington have pre-emptively concluded that it is “legally permissible” for Trump to accept the luxury gift and then transfer it over to his presidential library.

      Yeah I’m confused how wearing baggier clothing wouldn’t just make him even smaller. I have no problem with his fashion at all. He’s a well put together man.

      The problem is that foyer doesn't look like it has ANY connection to that garbage glitter trash living room at Bill and Hayley's. I have to disagree strongly with both of you on Andre's wardrobe. I like it -- a lot. I don't think anything about it is dated, but that he looks like a guy who cares about fashion. Andre is a short king, but I don't want to see him lost in baggy clothes or chunky sweaters.

      Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
