Love the shade she gave Jack after seeing the mistletoe. It was like I know you want a kiss real bad and you aint getting one ....BYE.....LOL

It wasn't Scotty but Fen that was mentioned that was studying to be a lawyer thus why he didn't come for the holidays.

Lauren said that she was sad that her boys couldn't be there with her. Kevin mentioned how Fen had turned his life around and was studying to be a lawyer while talking to Michael.  Scotty was mentioned too but nothing about what he was up to.

@ryanc Them being uninspired is a cop out. They manage to come up with all kinds of mess for Chelserella. I mean, she's uneducated and seemingly talentless if I go by the clothes we've seen her create. Yet she's this renowned designer with her own fashion house and set. She's even got folks who've been on way longer WORKING FOR HER! Lily is whatever they make her. If they can't make her anything then the failing is theirs not the character or the actress. 

 

@KMan101 Lily is tasked with playing matriarch of that family because Neil/KSJ hasn't taken off in a romance with anyone well enough to establish them in the role. If they want a family member to dog hilary's shadow and scheme against her then they need to recast yolanda and relieve lily of that duty. It's not suited to her. 

 

I'm pretty sure Scotty

 

Brace yourself. 

 

However, I think CK can pull it off better now. She's older now. With age comes a certain security and command of one's body.

I liked today's show. You can't really go wrong with a Christmas-y episode where you have characters gathered and engaging together in holiday cheer.

 

I agree about the Gloria in small doses-very small doses. I'd rather see Fen and Scotty but at the very least, the show now remembers that they exist. 

 

Lily and Cane's son looks a lot like Grandpa Neil.  As much as I wanted to see Hillary and Jill interact, that was too short and too bland. Maybe they decided to tone it down in the spirit of holiday cheer?

 

What can I say? The scenes at the Abbott mansion were nice.  

 

I guess if you're going to take over the writing duties of a show, the holidays are an ideal time.

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse
