Um, Reed needed to get his guitar, got the keys and told Noah he'd return 'tomorrow.' Huh? Then the kids were skulking around all scared BUT they had Noah's permission to be there. Reed could've said he was playing for his friends on the stage like he's done many times before.

 

Oh and Nick 'closed TU to be with his kids.' Right because Noah and all the other staff couldn't keep it open on a busy night. 

 

The set-up is flawed on so many levels. And since when is Abbott mansion that close to TU that an old lady could walk there? A place that I'm pretty she's never heard of, much less been to.

What bothers me is that back when the show was on an upswing (post LA scandal / early Summer), Mal was very eager to take the credit. I know for a fact he retweeted me once while complimenting him and the writers. So at the very least he was enjoying the show's critical acclaim and being a team player. However we now know that the show was far away from his vision. His vision is this crap.

The entire structure of this story makes no sense.  However, if they HAD to have someone start a fire accidentally, why Dina?  WTF?  The delivery guy could have broken a couple bottles when he delivered the booze, someone knocks over that stupid ass jack o lantern and there ya go.  Even then, it would have sucked but at least Dina wouldn't be involved.

 

Jeez.

Or it could have been due to a gas leak or faulty wiring in the building.  And what's the point of having the fire in the first place if you can't trap a bunch of people inside when it breaks out and have them fighting for their lives?  Two or three people trapped inside is...okay.  But this really called for a large gathering of GC folks, you know?

Word. 

 

I've never been a big fan of these gimmicks, even when done well like Nancy Curlee's blackout in Springfield.  But if you're gonna do it, at least make it as natural/believable as possible.  Dina randomly wandering into the bar was just

+!

 

The negativity to Mal's first two episodes is really strong and vocal. They are hating everything.

 

I hate how watered down Mariah has become.

Today's show is cringworthy. The acting and writing of the younger actors sucks big time. Just awful!

 

Mal needs to end Mariah and Tessa NOW!!  It is horrible!!

This fire is so bad.  LOLLLL. Billy walking around the bar inside with just a rag over his mouth, but there are no firemen in there and they have masks.  They're all outside talking about how the "need to get in there!"  And the fire is still just around the bar.  Looks super dangerous.  This is as bad as the Newman Tower fire that went on for days and the "building could go any second!"  And there was only one helicopter with the Genoa City PD, and Newman Towers has a helipad but Victor doesn't own a helicopter.

I have found the fire story to be absolutely chilling. The stakes are so high. We have been wanting high steaks for months. This will define the young generation for years to come much in the same way as the fire at Gina’s by Zjack Smith as Hw

I don't care what the mods say.  If the Russians can hack and meddle their way into an election, then one joker can deceive the moderators at a soap opera-related message board by setting up two accounts.

    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
