These soap kids can’t have any fun anymore before they learn their lessons.  Cam caught before he really gets the drugs, and already had a court date about it.  Oscar and Joselyn can’t have fun in the catacombs like several young/teens have had before them without it turning into a city wide alert.

 

Also- didn’t the catacombs collapse sometime in the 2000’s?  When did people start going back down there?

Dante is off trying to catch the last guy (Raj the gun broker) that tried to kill Lulu for the WSB.   It's a typically stupid, off-screen tale.

 

I was amazed to see Lucas and Brad in the same episode with the kid   and then Wallow showed up. Bleccchhhhhh!  Her kid is dead. move on to the reveal Obrecht!

Indeed. All roads lead to Oscar on this show. They really think this is an all-time classic story. Meanwhile they’ve botched the one story on this show with potential (Ryan).

 

Very few things bug me on soaps more than close family members and friends existing in separate spheres during a crisis. Carly doesn’t have much Spencer loyalty, but yesterday she basically said, “Didn’t you hear? Lulu’s been stabbed.” A beat. “Well, sucks to be her! Moving on...”

They confuse the hell out of me with this Ryan story. What’s the point of having a serial killer if he doesn’t kill anybody important and nobody seems to care that a serial killer is on the loose? Even with Lulu it’s an after thought. Considering how big the cast it I’m amazed they couldn’t find anybody to kill off to raise the stakes. Was everybody asleep when Maura West filmed the Kiki death scenes? You have a goldmine of potential material with this story!

Maybe everyone else saw it coming, but I wasn't expecting them to play the story beat where Liz discusses the possibility of her 3rd grader being gay. I don't mind it at all, I just wasn't expecting it. I do wish it was anyone but Franco being super dad to her kids.

 

I don't give one f-ck about Jason and Sam together (zzz), but even I think it's about time they had sex. It never made any sense why it took so long.

 

Oh look, more Oscar drama but nothing about Lulu or Ryan.

 

I'm beyond over the Mike story, even though I love the actor. They could drop all this stuff with Yvonne and Marcus tomorrow and I wouldn't question it.

Sam-inex put me to sleep twice.

 

I like the Aiden story, but I would like it much better if Lucky were the man of the house--- even AJ, but not this turd. Elizabeth is being written well, but Lo-zer needs to be offed.

 

Stella should be on contract and TJ should be seen being a medical student at the hospital.  Otherwise, why did they bother recasting? Stella should be sharing scenes with Laura, Monica and patients at the hospital, not just Mike as the social worker.

 

Oscar is not Stone----please stop!

 

Of course Jason fell through the floor after bloated Jake "Dough" landed on it. Thriller Filler Killer Griller Miller looks awful.

 

No Ryan, no Lulu but aftermath for the not injured Oscar at the hospital.

 

I still see no reason to root for Anna/Finn. They are just "There" for me.

Chase bores me (but he's handsome, so I won't complain there). Wallow irks me.  The Sasha actress was much better suited than Wallow's. I know she's coming back, but Wallow needs to go. (Ahem, Ryan).

 

The Gail Baldwin story obviously was rushed and they have no idea where to go with it. I feel all  of the beneficiaries need to be at the next meeting (Serena and Lesley cameos-or Serena in med school. Brief visit from DA would be nice). With Lucy in town, she should be at the next meeting.

    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
