Home & Family comes off so awkward. Like the hosts are "known" but the guests seem to have no idea why they're there being interviewed, or when they're shoved onto barstools next to each other to eat, or out in the backyard .... The format remains clunky. I like what they've tried to do, but zzzzz. I also like that they don't seem to have an aversion to having daytime stars on. I really quite enjoyed seeing Mary Beth Evans, Jackie Zeman, Ronn Moss and Matt Ashford on there a few weeks ago promoting The Bay. They even have Jerry Douglas's wife Kym as some style/fashion/health/whatever consultant. But it's just such a ... clunky show. I caught Julie Berman on there, last week or the week before and she looked both scared, confused and terrified, sometimes all at the same time (and GH, well mostly Tony Geary, was definitely brought up).

 

I've always thought As The World Turns would be an ideal Hallmark soap. That and The Doctors. Maybe Edge of Night ... GL, maybe but I always thought that would have thrived online. But to me any of those soaps resurrected and put on their schedule would fit right in to me. Sure SOME things could be toned down but I think soaps COULD work on Hallmark. Never will but in my land of make believe I've always thought the P&G soaps fit Hallmark the best.

    • Unpopular opinion, but the Chelsea coming out scene reeked of Afterschool Special and I really didn't care that we didn't see her coming out to her grandparents.  We were spared the 'We're Duprees and we're better than everyone' speech. As a gay person, I kind of like watching straight people acting all messy and cringey (which is why I probably have a soft spot for Ashley/Derek... and sometimes wish Jacob would take his balls back from his warden Naomi) LOL If the show were willing to take risks, I would think the Dani arc is basically a 2020's version of Betty Broderick... but I doubt Dani would actually shot/kill Bill and Hayley.  Though I do have a feeling that if Hayley is pregnant that Dani will cause to miscarry the baby.
    • I don't think that's clever, though. Maybe the writers should forget about throwing shade and write dialogue and story for Ashley and Derek that isn't boring and doesn't paint them as boring.   I agree -- both of those still need a ton of work. I still say the fades to commercials look like someone walked past the camera and hit the OFF button.   Yep, this was regression in every way. Dani was all hopped up with Chelsea like she'd taken some party drug, and then it got worse when she literally broke into Bill and Hayley's house.   -- The fakeout scene was good, but I don't want them to go to that well too often. They're already in danger of doing that. -- I'm good with Brandon Claybon's acting style. It's different, but in a good way. -- It was an interesting turn to have Tyrell question Jessica's intentions. -- I didn't see anything special about the plated food on today's show. At Orphey Gene's, it looked like everyone had a plate of french fries.
    • Diana's BSOD in Gary and Abby's hot tub is yet another gif-worthy moment.
    • I'm sure once the next budget comes in, they'll develop another community lot.
    • I agree; she's always spoken highly of her time on World Turns and how they treated her as a professional at that point.
    • That’s why I mentioned another bar.
    • Who says they won't, though? I mean, Bill doesn't even know, yet, either.
    • Julianne Moore has always spoken positively of her time on As the World Turns. She also had the good fortune of being on that show during the Calhoun/Marland era when it was at its creative peak. Hard to believe that April 2 was 40 years since Julianne Moore first As the World Turns episode.  
    • You forgot Uptown. They eat and meet up there too. And don't forget Kat & Tomas' date in the Richardson living room.
    • Today was the Dani I can’t stand. She had been doing so good for a few weeks here.
