Speaking of that, they need to stop having Lauren/Traci in scenes where they act as if they’re old friends. I get that people mature and move past childhood drama - but how many of us would care to sit down and have a casual lunch with someone who bullied you in high school? Acknowledge they know each other, but don’t pretend they have any reason to be close.

It was a joke.  Considering the fact that Bakula stays busy and Desperate Housewives is the closest to a soap that he's ever been, I wouldn't expect him to do Y&R, especially the mess that the show is now.  It was a play on the Scott Palmer and the idea that any "Scott" would be better than having Traci trapped in a pairing with Cane.  I mean, unless people want her to get trapped like Lily did.

 

Colleen and Lily were best friends, so I doubt they'd go there with Daniel and I can't picture Colleen with Fen.

The only reason Traci/Cane is happening is due to feedback that viewers want to see more of Traci and Cane is at a loose end.

No way are they going to send Traci to college(new sets required) or get a suitable love interest(not going to hire an actor over 40)

Not sure how far they will take Trane ?

Is that the first scene Traci/Lauren have had in years? I agree there should be an edge b/w them but Lauren lost her bitchiness years ago (to her detriment). It would be interesting if Earth Mother Traci just couldn't lose her resentment of Lauren. The scenes would have more spark if that underlying layer were there.

As recurring, would Beth be using her own clothes?

As for Jack and Lauren again it's a case of budget and putting together 2 characters already there than hiring an age appropriate actress for Jack (not happening) and finding something else for Lauren to do.

Now Leanna back to stir things up and hook up with Jack could be way more interesting...

Yep that was my idea!!! 

 

I mean if this show can build new sets for everyone else and their mother. Then please construct a GCU set for the woman who won the show's first ever Emmy. Have Traci initially butt heads with the new president of the university somehow they begin to fall for one another. Perhaps one of his children also attends GCU who bonds with Traci and vice versa who "lost" her mother at an early age. Meanwhile, Traci sees this girl as a reminder of her beloved Colleen. She and the University President starts dating each other whilst his other daughter comes to town who could work at any of the five hundred companies on the show dislikes Traci for taking away her "Daddy."

Believe it or not, Bakula was on Another World as Quentin Mills in 1983, before he landed Quantum Leap.

 

 

I wish Traci had a better option for story. It's great to see Maitland not having to shed tears every day. I don' want Trane, but if the story leads to Traci opening herself up to romance once her book is done,(with an actual scene partner other than Cane) then I'll sit through the b.s. until Traci moves on. (Just please, not every single day.)

Sigh.

 

If you're reading this, Thom Bierdz, take my advice: let it go, get (more) help and for God's sake, sue the hell out of whichever hack inked those tats.

      @BoldRestless @fivethej Apologies for the late reply! But yes as far as I know I do still have the tape. I remember asking for instructions on this wayy back in 2020, but I will definitely reach out. Only issue is I know my VHS tape collection is in my basement, which looks like the Chancellor mansion attic at the moment.

      Also I while I still have DVD/VHS combo player do they even hook-up to modern TV sets or still need a CRT TV? Just asking as I know some folks being off off guard when trying to hook older equipment like some VHS sets and older game consoles quite unsuccessfully

      It's evident that there was reset of Derek and Ashley's storyline. The attempt to build tension over Derek not resting enough after being injured on the job was not working but the tension over moving in together is. The characters are still not thrilling, but today they at least were worth paying attention to. The writers do want Ashdre and they are easing toward it again.

      Yes, I believe that is the case. ABC wanted Siobhan and Joe to be a very popular couple and apparently didn't think Sarah Felder was glamorous enough. I don't know if this story is true, but I heard somewhere that Felder told everyone off at her farewell party because of the reason she was fired. If it's not true, it should be!

      And so it's Andre and Ashley again? Why don't they go ahead and make something bad happen between them? I don't trust the stereotypical vibe. I don't.

      I guess neither Stephanie or Leo are ever going to investigate the gaping plot holes in the Bob-ette storyline. Other random Thoughts for Thu If Sophia was going to leave Tate alone after he was faint and had a fever, thank goodness she's not planning on raising a baby! Finally, Xander expressed that this situation with Philip was not Victor's desire.  Victor clearly wrote his desires in his will right before he died, and those plans did not include Philip at Titan. I can't with the laws of Salem.  Adults with nut allergies can sue for negligence when they eat a bakery known for using pistachio in their scones, but people discuss insider trading and kidnapping like it is no big deal. It is so simple to research why they have no standing to sue to Sweet Bits (regardless of what the server said). I ignored Brady and Kate being on the board, because that was plausible.  But, Abe is on the board of directors?  That's a stretch. I'm staying mum on Versavix for today, I've had my say....

      I do love that the episode ended with Kat exclaiming when she was alone "Gotcha!"

      It is amazing how everyone in GC just swaps partners and is instantly in love and their previous relationship never happened. All while everyone’s exes live in the same town and go to the exact same 4 places as each other.
