I'm starting to think the networks will cancel the remaining 4 shows and just put something cheap in their places. Lord knows I haven't liked everything Mal has done, but At least find it entertaining. but if ratings aren't budging and are also going lower....and DD needs to hush. actors don;t get brave until the EP/HW is on their way out the door. hell, when was the last time Michael and Lauren have been seen?

Did I misunderstand Devon? He made a comment about purchasing the apartment on the floor below. Doesn't he own the entire building?

 

Summer is very different! and HK seems to have lost her lisp.

 

I love Erica as Farrah.

 

Still ticked about Victor re: Christian. Hate it that they are doing this to give Lauren Woodland a SL. I can't watch Victor do this again. I'm sorry LW.

I agree. And I hope they do and think they will. Especially in light of the recent casting news. I could see him being used to drive storyline for this family including Cane/Lily. I can already see how his relationship with Shauna is causing conflict with Lily. Lily really wasn't having it today with him in regards to him keeping Shauna in his room. She grudgingly agreed to help figure out a solution on what to do with Shauna but she was mad at Shauna/Charlie.

 

As their relationship blossoms, I could see her getting fed up with them if she thinks that Charlie is falling too soon and moving too fast with Shauna. She could end up feeling that Shauna is undermining her role in Charlie's life, if Charlie continues to make decisions regarding Shauna that Lily doesn't approve of. These types of things could be interesting and help drive story for the Winters/Ashby family. 

 

Plus, Neil and Charlie continue to be cute together. I enjoy their relationship.

I'm catching up on the last several episodes. Nikki and Victor are just beyond words with their hypocrisy. It drives me crazy when a show ignores reality to such an extent. Even with Sharon having a scandalous history, Victor and Nikki have literally zero room to preach and I wish they would have their pasts shoved in their faces more often. Sharon at least has a diagnosed mental illness and will admit she's done bad things. Nikki just becomes a drunken mess, while still managing to be uppity, and Victor's truly a psychopath.

Why does Hilary have to be with Devon? It's becoming forced and rather boring. She's such an interesting, dynamic character, played by a charismatic actress. Devon is such a boring and unlikable character who sucks the life out of every scene. I funny understand why Hilary has to be saddled with him and she's not allowed a story without him. It's actually rather insulting to Mishael Morgan. They need to try Hilary more across the canvas.

Hilary was all across canvas for a full year. She was driving story for much of the canvas as an ambitious business woman who would sell her soul to the devil for ratings. She had a new boyfriend whom she was supposedly so into that she fought lily to be with despite lily not being interested in him. All that seemed to be hated.  

 

 

Summer as a young Phyllis is good on paper. I'm not so sure about execution though.

Because the show isn’t going to hire 10 more guys to chase Hilary. She’s good with Devon when the writing is good. Why you’re trashing Bryton like this, I don’t know.

 

Besides, you have to be aware that MiM is leaving, right? Your point is moot.

Eric Braeden should stop playing Victor as if he’s overdosing on Xanax.

    • In some ways, the scene of Greg kissing Paige in front of Laura (or at least when she's at home) is tough to take as it feels like they are building his next romance in front of the woman they are dumping from the canvas, but I do appreciate that Laura was in no way bothered. She knew Paige wasn't a threat, and she also knew that even if Greg did move on, she had come through worse and wasn't going to let herself be in a Richard-like marriage ever again. I'm also glad they didn't ever try to have her choose a wife for him - not a fan of that trope. (although she probably would have chosen anyone, including Leona Helmsley, over Abby)
    • YR did air on the West Coast, only BOLD was a full pre emption They'll probably remove the BOLD episode once they realize lol 
    • Today's episodes of B&B and Y&R are both up at cbs.com. No idea how this is a "full preemption." These morons need to get their ish together.
    • I may have to take a break, Ambyr has me dang near crying every time I watch.

    • I think @DRW50 had it right when he said that the Lechowicks couldn't categorize Laura as easily as they could the other women on the show.  Laura wasn't vixenish like Abby, nor was she was a heroine in the same mold as Val or even Karen.  She was entirely down-to-earth, and more the type who plays things closer to the vest.  Plus, her marriage to Greg was pretty solid (with Laura knowing exactly the kind of man she'd married) to the point where splitting them up and keeping them apart would've taken more effort than perhaps they were willing to expend. I mean, it's easy to generate conflict between Mack and Karen, because Mack and Karen are both very stubborn people who believe they can handle crises on their own; and it's easy to generate conflict for Gary and Val, too, because each is basically an overgrown teenager who'd rather suffer in silence than just express to the other how they feel.  (If only Val had swallowed her pride and just taken Gary back when he begged her to, lol).  But, unless you're Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick, you'll be at a loss over what to do with a mature, adult relationship like Greg and Laura's that is built on each being 100% aware of the other's flaws.  Greg sniffing around Paige?  If that had happened while Laura was still aware, she would've just smirked or rolled her eyes and moved on.
    • B&B has uploaded May 8th episode to cbs.com and paramountplus. I wonder if it will remain or be removed?
    • -- Off, indeed. I wrote my rant while watching the show. Then I heard Dante mention manslaughter and Danny in the same sentence. Just over-the-top ridiculousness. -- Is Brad written off for good? If so, what a lousy exit. -- Portia is looking sooooooo dumb these days. Just clueless as to how she's coming across.
    • As usual, Dani makes everything all about herself.   Sweetie.. this isn't about you.   I think deep down, the Dupree would be relieved if Dani wasn't around.
    • I watched it all. I was fine with her on both GH and on PC. But, what you describe for Llanview would've worked really well. I just think the whole concept of moving her from show to show was  in big trouble from the start. And, there were some specific blunders, like MAX, GMAB, she had no idea whether she'd had a boy or a girl and he was at least a decade older than any of the others.  I did very much like the idea that Myrtle was her mom.
