On the 6/15 episode, the good doctor-priest, Griffin, told Sam that he had "anxiety issues" after being held by Olivia Jerome!  Really?  This could happen only on a soap.  A person who suffers from "anxiety issues" has a perfect physique, a mop of hair to die for, shiny-bright teeth, smoldering good looks, etc.  If that is the way Griffin looks from having anxiety issues, he damn well should bottle whatever the anxiety did to him.  I'd be the first to buy it because I wouldn't mind looking like that lad!

Yes, Costa, please choke him to death! I love that shorter, pudgy Jason caught up to a lean, muscular Costa and didn't even get sweaty or out of breath.

Meh, I'm interested in seeing where they're take all this stuff with Amy's brother. Probably nowhere good, though. I hate myself for saying this, but after all these years, Nathan actor seems to have settled down into the role just a tiny little bit. 

 

Alexis is beyond pathetic.

I FFwd through it so I have no clue LOL. And then to have Dillon and Nathan sharing scenes? LAWD talk about snoozeville

 

They waited way too long to start writing for Amy

 

Alexis is TRASH. She looks so pathetic as she defends Julian and railroads Olivia into letting Julian see Leo. How can NLG like this [!@#$%^&*]?

The writing for Alexis has been pathetic since Devry arrived.Those rabid Julexis stans are the only reason he's still on the show (along with asshats ValenVarni).  I can't believe NLG hasn't voiced her opinion, but I guess a buck's a buck...

 

The Amy character was brought in with absolutely no planning. All they wanted was a poor man's Amy Vining, even using the same first name. She was literally following people to gossip at them. They even made her look like a suspect in the serial killer story. Then she vanished.  

 

Now she's back, slowly been given backstory with Maxie and Dillon and has been screen filler with Nathan. I hate to say it, but RD has grown on me, and her character (along with the "mysterious" brother Chet) may be workable.

 

At least she's not Kiki...

Yup on NLG and deVry

 

They gave Amy zero character development in the beginning. I agree she's workable and the actress is growing on me but it seems too little too late but I'm open to it, I'm just finding it hard to care ...

 

I have no doubts that's true. Look how little she had while Julian was in jail. She exists for him now.

Ugh. Michael the Sonny apologist. The man killed your biological father. I couldn't believe the dialogue. "Sure I get mad and angry at Sonny ..." lawd. Josslyn has every right to hate the man.

 

It's really nice to see Jennifer Bassey again!! She looks great. Too bad it involves Amy and Det. Woodpile (who I agree has ... settled ... in the role).

No, just making a comparison of Aunt Stella to Aunt Marie. Aunt Marie was down on Juicy Janet just like Stella is down on Jordan. Another of Pissy's copycat stories.

 

I like VWR in the Stella role, though. As I said before, at least the Jordan/Curtis story isn'r a triangle, but family conflict, for a change.

 

Two more days of characters kissing Ninughs ass...

    • 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 
    • If Claybon is married to a woman I'm the Archduke Ferdinand.
    • I do think Ben should come back. I think Max Bowden is all wrong for Ben.
    • Thank you, been waiting so long for this, and I appreciate how much work it is typing this all out and creating the charts for us!
