That helps but we'll see. I think she needs someone more interesting

If he's gonna be a permanent addition he should be paired with younger female characters.

 

The Hilary/Lily/Mariah/Abby/Tessa/Chelsea/Juliet group is definitely in need of new blood.

Agreed. I also meant to quote you earlier and agree with you on them not developing Juliet enough so they're using Hilary to be the heavy and bad guy

Well how about Graham and Phyliss?  I am not digging the whole Billy/Phyliss mess.

 

It's certainly worth a try. Anything is better than Billy/Phyllis.

The actress playing Juliet isn't half bad which makes the character's lack of development even worse.

 

The whole sexual harassment situation is being treated like Lauren & Devon's "big" stories where their stories become about everybody else while they're reduced to extreme supporting players. And it's going to really hurt the sexual harassment story because if there aren't any stakes involved for Juliet (other than her inevitably becoming a psycho) then the entire outcome is irrelevant.

Saw my first episode in a while, and the guy playing Graham...sheesh. Maybe they are playing up his blankness/blandness to create mystery around him, but at the moment I'm not seeing the potential.

 

The show has a lot of issues, but at least it's moving and somewhat engaging, which it hasn't been in years. And Josh Morrow has been nowhere to be found in the episodes I've watched so I consider that a win.

The criticism of Graham's acting is ridiculous. The guy is just fine, especially considering what he's been given thus far.

 

He does have chemistry with Ashley, and pairing him with her would be good if we don't get the sibling story out of it. And no, I don't want to see Graham with the younger set. With Mariah/Tessa/Juliet, etc.? Just no.

 

Characters I can't stand: Tessa, whose blinking and eye fluttering is a maddening tic, as well as the guy who created the dating app for Abby's business venture. Talk about bland and ordinary.

Is it just me or did I see a bit of chemistry between Graham and Ashley Friday?

It's not you.

 

Watching them makes me think of what SSM said in terms of the original Plan for Ashley/Ravi namely a stepping stone to her soulmate. Of course that depends on if he is her sibling or not...but yep.

Just read his interview in SOD today.

 

Running A Crossfit does him good.

I think Graham would be great for Ashley

 

I love the Juliet's story with everyone being involved, having Leslie back and Hilary doing what bad girls on soaps should be doing; causing problems to people she doesn't like.

 

One good thing about this regime is that they don't give every key player a wtd and love triangle. The Abbott story, the B&S problems are my favorite parts of the show. I am also enjoying the kids scenes. 

 

Abby works so much better as an Abbott than as  a Newman. 

 

Scott should be or a doctor like his father, or they should have brought the actor as Phillip IV (let's never call him Chance again) and given him the war zone background.

What was Marla's first airdate?  I wanna go back and catch up.  So good to see her again.

There are plenty triangles though some are just getting started and others have few beats played:

 

Phyllis/Billy/Vikki

Cane/lily/Jordan/Hilary/Devon/Mariah

Sharon/Scott/Abby

Ravi/Ashley/Graham possibly

Graham seems a bit too long in the tooth for those women. The show needs more men under 35 for those women. Not some May December. So I'll have to pass on that one.
