I sort of like her. I WANT to like her. She's not bad, the material she's had isn't really great. And very much agreed, I can't imagine her Abby having sex with EJ and I often times imagine how Mansi's Abby would react and she just wouldn't react the same way as Miller. I think having Dena write Abby coming back the way she did, practically said to be off her rocker, didn't help. I don't like when they seem to deliberately make a strong character weaker under the guise of mental illness, and then do a piss poor job of following up on it. Why isn't JLB recurring as Laura and still counseling Abby? Because Dena had an agenda ...

Where did this Lani story come from? Can't say I'm too concerned about her safety.

 

Chad and Kate talking about a cursed Egyptian relic made me laugh. It seemed like even Billy Flynn couldn't keep a straight face with those lines. 

 

I am enjoying Tripp as well. Finally a newcomer that seems to be able to act. 

I think Marci Miller would have been great as a new character but the baggage and way that she has been written does her no favors. I think she's done a decent job with what she's been given though.

@Melroser I tuned in today and I really liked what's going on with Lani and I like her chem with Jen's son (forget his name). 

 

Looking forward to more of this and Gabi/Eli. 

 

Not sure what it is about NuAbby but she depresses me. It's one of those things where you want to cry but have no idea why.

He should have been Kayla and Patch's son and not Joey. He looks more like their son than Joey.

ugh, I know

 

And of course holier than thou Gabi. I was so annoyed the other day when she was berating Abby over Chad. She always has to look the best out of anyone.

 

I don't mind the Lani/JJ story but Dena likes her women weak so let's get Lani hooked on drugs and dependent on JJ ... I don't know, her writing of women just irks me.

 

I forgot Eric existed, he only had like 3 or 4 appearances last month. He's looking as hot as ever. I really do like Eric/Jen.

 

I also forgot Marlena existed. So John's back but gets one episode last month? I missed the end of their episode so I assume his absence was explained again?

 

It's been nice to have Rafe and Hope on the backburner.

 

I really like Roman running the Pub. I think it should be Kim, but I'll take Roman. I do like Josh, he just mumbles and really has never been Roman but he's been here for 20 years now as Roman ... but he works behind the bar running the Pub (to me, Josh would be Chris town running the Cheatin' Heart and Wayne would be Roman but that's of course a pipe dream ... so I guess that's why Roman behind the Pub bar works for me). He's sure been used a bit more now than he was as a cop.

 

I also like we've seen a mix up of people interacting with each other.

 

I wanted to slap grumpy Victor. Lawd he looks like such a miserable old man. All this over St. Daniel. Ugh. I hate it. He doesn't blink an eye towards anyone else (and the man has no room to throw stones at anyone but I get it ... even if I don't like it) in his family but it's Daniel Daniel Daniel Daniel his precious godson. Ugh.

 

Yum

    • Well, no new episode tomorrow, but you should do a catch up. It's worth it!
    • *Gavrilo Princip has entered the chat* I haven't watched BTG in approximately two months because of the busy season at work, but now it's summer, and I'll have time to get back into it. Do y'all think that I should do the 21st century binge-watching thing and attempt to catch up on everything I missed or should I do the traditional soap thing and just start watching again tomorrow and figure everything out from there?
    • A few days late but this made me holler so bad and immediately took.me back 29 years when I first saw this. I still remember thinking Rick and Phillip were going hold each other and dance together LOL. Rick being there at least makes some sense as he was A-M’s second cousin and the show still at least recognized he was half Bauer, at least until Hearst left.  The whole Universal Studios wedding was over the top. I think someone wanted A-M and Lucy to be the next GL super couple but once Hearst left the A-M recast flopped and both were gone by early ‘97 with Lucy never appearing ever again.    Love the rest of your post, summer 1996 was the first time GL left me feeing…greatly underwhelmed until it inspired righteous indignation on my behalf once we get to the Gilly twist.
    • You're right. I think she was seen as too subtle or reserved.  As @soapfan770I liked Sheila on LA Law but she wasn't needed here, especially as Charley as a character only made sense with a more reserved and less conventionally attractive actress.
    • That's certainly one way to put it!  What blather. Kind of tells you they knew it was going to fail. I guess they were just throwing anything at the schedule and hoping they would be pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the article.
    • I would guess it's down to Kate Oates. Bowden is very much her type of leading man. She repeated all the stories she did on Emmerdale with his Ben.  I also think EE has become conservative enough that only a white, straight-acting gay man is going to get story.
    • Desert Sun, 13 April 1985 ABC’s 'Dark Mansions’ Loretta Young quits movie LOS ANGELES (AP) - Loretta Young, citing “creative differences,” has withdrawn from her role as the family matriarch in “Dark Mansions,” an ABC movie and projected series, a spokesman for the actress said. The Academy Award-winning actress had been due to come out of retirement to begin work on the two-hour movie on April 22. The movie goes into production on Monday. “Loretta Young will not be rendering services because of creative differences over the story,” her agent, Norman Brokaw of the William Morris Agency said in a statement. “The parting between Miss Young and Aaron Spelling was amiable despite the story differences,” the statement said. Miss Young had been scheduled to play the role of Margaret Drake, the matriarch of a Seattle shipping family in “Dark Mansions,” a contemporary Gothic drama. There was no immediate word from either Aaron Spelling Productions or ABC who would replace Miss Young in the role. “It’s true that we had creative differences over the way her character was developing,” Spelling said in a statement released by a spokesman, David Horowitz. “She's a great star and a great friend and I hope she always remains both.” Miss Young won an Academy Award as best actress in 1948 for “The Farmer’s Daughter.” She was the star of 94 motion pictures and was the creator, producer and star of “The Loretta Young Show” during television’s so-called Golden Age Miss Young had been scheduled to work eight days out of the four week shooting schedule. The movie, a pilot for an ABC prime-time soap opera, also stars Michael York, who would make his series debut, Linda Purl, Paul Shenar, Melissa Sue Anderson, Raymond St. Jacques and Dan O’Herlihy. Miss Young s last film was “It Happens Every Thursday” in 1953. She then took the unprecedented step of retiring from films to produce and star in "The Loretta Young Show" on television. She won three Emmy awards as best dramatic actress in 1954, 1956 and 1958. She was also nominated five other times. The anthology show ran on NBC from 1953 to 1961. In the 1962-63 season she starred on NBC in a dramatic show called “The New Loretta Young Show.” As we know Joan Fontaine took on the role
