Unicorn is coming this Fall to CBS on Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c.

I reallllllly liked Unicorn. It amused me a lot and I love Walton.

😥 I messed up! I thought that I was in the CBS subset.

B&B: November 2025 Discussion Thread

-- Why does this show think we care ANYTHING about Dylan? An episode wasted on who ran Luna over -- with another bland, boring, vanilla "actress."
-- In times like these, I find the Logan sisters absolutely insufferable. And I mean all of them.

Thanks! At first, I was going to say there's an episode dated 6 10 91 but that is a different episode, so someone's date was wrong.

This is not exactly relevant to the conversation, but I was watching some of Summer 1982, and the whole "Alan and Henry step away to start their own company with Hope" thing was a real low point for Marland, IMO.
First of all, Hope was an interior decorator. It was as if she had to be part of the company to make sure Alan didn't slip back into his old ways. Or maybe Marland couldn't think of anything to do with Hope so he put her in the middle of that so they could fulfill her minimum appearances per week in her contract.
I believe it's around the time that Marland steps down that the new writers do the whole struggle over Spaulding story, as you outlined. Having Alan and Henry sitting by the fire and talking about cutting back on the cutthroat atmosphere of the corporate world was a major blunder, IMO. I have no idea where Marland thought he was going with that. Having it cut short by Marland leaving was an immediate improvement to the show.
Though why the oil rig was called the "Madrid Project" I will never figure out--Madrid is in the MIDDLE of Spain! It's not on the coast! You can't have off-shore drills in Madrid! Did any of these people own a MAP? (Yeah, I know, it's not really a big deal but my family lived in Spain for a while and it bugs me).
Yes to all of this. It would have been great if they worked the fact that AM was a Bauer into the story. And have it really drive Alan mad! The Bauers were his nemeses for a very long time.

The truth is as much as I am a fan of the chaos Suzanne brought to the show, I think Jean staying for another year would have been more successful than Delta staying for a season without Jean. But the one two punch was just deadly.
Unlike other shows that lost a major star but found new or continued life, Designing Women’s format was really curated with those four women, and Anthony later fit in beautifully. Bernice was fun but not the same weight. Much like Golden Girls- you take out one of the core and the balance is off. This wasn’t Cheers, where you had a larger supporting cast ready to be expanded in telling the jokes to help things settle down after Diane left. Same with the Cosby show and A Different World without Denise- others picked it up and ran with it. Mary Tyler Moore weathered the loss of her non work friends by centering more at the station. I also cannot imagine Living Single if one of the four ladies was gone, although Kyle being gone was also a huge blow.

I actually like Carly plotting revenge against Brennan. But I continue to dread Valentin being added to it more regularly. Her playing cat and mouse there is an evolved version of Carly. Normally she impulsively would have blown it all up by now. It’s still deeply stupid of her to play games with the head spy, but she can only grow so much.
Laura’s freaking out doesn’t bother me because she has always been prone to panic. And even when she had a calmer head through Frank Smith round one and the Ice Princess, her ordeal with the Cassadines took its toll. In those episodes in 1983 she plays Laura as haunted deeply by what she endured. It’s one of the reasons the Nikolas story worked in 1996. And really, the last time she was in the body finding business, Luke would have taken care of it for her.
Joss in bed, again, really makes the lack of sex and relationships being shown elsewhere even more glaring. Carly doesn’t count, it’s a scam.
And I get where Britt was coming from about letting Jason help her if he fully commits. But you are also speaking to a man that is a mob enforcer, has a child he is the sole parent of, and family obligations from his mother’s recent death. I know they want me to feel sympathy for her but it’s just another bratty example of her immature behavior.
I did think Sidwell killing Dalton in front of Britt was an excellent way to up the stakes for her though. I like that it’s not only Sonny, Laura, and Jason that know besides Sidwell and Poppy guy. She and Jason both know but can’t talk about it. That’s pretty classic soap angst with a twist, and it does work for me.

This is B&B. Just because you saw a white girl on screen doesn't mean a thing - see Luna/Zende.

Wow - I loved the Cabot baby storyline. Then again, Cady McClain and Hunt Block are two of my favorite soap actors. Thought it was a fantastic storyline. Had me tuning in every day to find out what would happen next. I've said it before and I'll say it again, just what do people on this message board LIKE about As The World Turns. Because it seems like you all hate it - not just the Sheffer/Goutman era, but most of Doug Marland's era.
So again, what do you like about ATWT. Favorite moments. Storylines. Characters. Do you even have any? (Besides the quadruplets who were on for about 4 months.)

Dynasty Discussion Thread

So interesting to read everyone's thoughts. I enjoy the realism of Season 1 but Matthew and the always-sobbing-teenage-girl make it difficult for me to watch it often.
Other than the above mention Krystle twin plot, I enjoy all the rest of the show. It's final season written by David Paulsen, is one of its best so it goes out on a high, imo.
Am in a rewatch in Season 5 and it's perfection as far as I'm concerned. Ali McGraw, Rock Hudson, Diahann Carroll, the clothes, the hair, the caviar, Catherine Oxenberg and Michael Praed as the Charles and Diana of Denver/Moldavia. Alexis just sitting around flipping through a magazine drinking champagne. Pure Gold!! There's a reason this season was #1 and became a huge hit in Europe at the same time.
Looking forward to The Colbys. Charlton Heston, Emma Samms, Maxwell Caufield, Stephanie Beach, Ricardo Montalban, Babara Stanwyck, more clothes, more hair, more over-the-top drama! Plus, Dynasty gets Christopher Casanova and Kate O'Mara.
I watch this show over and over and over. When I finish the miniseries, I just start back again at the beginning. All hail the fabulousness that is Dynasty!!!!!!

Well, it could have been interesting drama, so of course they didn't touch it.
I would have given AM imposter syndrome..as if it wasn't Alan or Alex he had to impress, he had shadow of Phillip, not even a bio Spaulding, hovering all over him. Add to that his Bauer which was rarely mentioned, and he would have felt..less then his backstabbing family. When Alan was trying to steal the presidency from him during the Brent storyline, I wanted him to have a scene with Ed where he tells AM to fight for the role..."Your great grandfather was an immigrant, and he would have been so proud of you being in charge and all the good you can do to help the people who work for Spaulding and the community. He was the exact opposite of Brandon and that should be your role model." So we find out AM wants to change some things, running up against Alan and Alex, and Amanda actually taking his side..."Out with the old and in with the new, nothing personal Alex when I say...old."
