I like the idea of a female "Equalizer," but Queen Latifah?

 

I'd much rather see Gina Torres.  She kicked ass on "Angel" and "Firefly" AND USA just cancelled her series, "Pearson," today.

Saw it last night.

 

I liked it. I'm surprised at how much I liked it. 

 

Didn't like the daughter angle, but potential.

 

And it's great seeing Ivy from DOLLHOUSE, Lorraine Toussaint, and Mr. Big. 

 

Curious to see how ratings would do without Super Bowl. I mean other than reality tv and CW superhero shows what else is on on Sunday?

Yeah, I enjoyed it too. It’s pretty much by-the-numbers and predictable af, but QL sold it well. That said, I wouldn’t seek it out or make it appointment viewing, but it might draw me in for an episode if I somehow stumbled upon it.

 

I figured this should probably go into the CBS section, @Toups. Thanks.

Lol!!! That's how I feel about it. I am really, really surprised by how much I liked it. I was talking my co-worker's ear off today.

 

Every once in a while you need that...what I like to call popcorn fare...where it is what it is. Kinda like THE RESIDENT EVIL movies. I know it doesn't have any major plot and it's just a redhead kicking zombie butt...and I'm FINE WITH THAT. lol. Just a feelgood feeling.

 

I got that from this. And my writer side could see it getting complicated later on. But for a pilot...it was good. But I am a sucker for the actress from DOLLHOUSE. lol.

 

Agree. For all that...I still liked it. Perhaps it's the fact that like you said QL sold it for me. Or just memories of the original show as a kid with my mom. But I'm down for its barebones (for now) plot.

    • Hopefully they can expand some of the sets again. I watched some 04/05 episodes and forgot how much more grand the production used to feel. I wonder if YR will be staying put or going there or somewhere else as well.
    • DAYS posted the recipe! https://www.instagram.com/p/DKiMVZvuZje/ dayspeacock June 5, 2025 Tomorrow is National Donut Day! Here’s Alice Horton’s famous recipe! #NationalDonutDay #Donuts #Recipe #DOOL #Days #Daysofourlives #TBT Ingredients: 2 eggs 1 cup of sugar 1 cup of milk 5 tablespoons melted shortening 1-teaspoon vanilla extract 4 cups all-purpose flour, sifted before measuring 4 teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 stick butter, melted Cinnamon Sugar In a large bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating constantly. Stir in milk, shortening and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the wet ingredients, mixing well. Cover and chill the dough for 30 minutes to one hour for easier handling. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Spray baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Roll out or pat the dough on a lightly floured board to a half inch thickness. Cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the doughnuts and holes on the baking sheet, one inch apart. Bake for 10 – 15 minutes or until golden brown. Brush each doughnut and doughnut holes with melted butter and roll in Cinnamon Sugar to coat all sides. Makes about 36 doughnuts. Cinnamon Sugar: 1 cup of sugar 1 teaspoon of cinnamon In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, blending well.                                                                                
    • "Jordan and Robert have the best brother chemistry. " They certainly did!  And that chemistry worked no matter who served as the protagonist in a given scene or story.  A shame that a full-blown story was never developed for those two.  Wouldn't have needed to be adversarial, either.  Maybe a serious, unexpected, long-term outside threat, business or personal, to one of the brothers with the other coming to his aid.      
    • Meant to come back to this!

      I was able to find most of them. I am not sure if you did 1974-1977 but I did not find it in the 70s thread. This is an amazing resource for EVERY soap.  1973 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/78/#comments 1973 more research https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/80/#comments 1973 Update https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/82/#comments 1978 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/135/#comments 1979-1988 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/115/#comments 1989  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/122/#comment-1876530 1990-1999  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/58300-ratings-from-the-90s/page/11/#comments 2000-2004  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/58300-ratings-from-the-90s/page/58/#comments
    • Mrs. H used the donuts to distract from the expensive jewels that she hid in the walls of her kitchen.  Now, it all makes sense...

      I thought a smart cookie like Caroline Brady would've had the chance to hide a bauble of her own from her dalliance with Victor.
    • They need to get rid of the ugly pizza set. Thanks for the info!

    • I hope this means some new sets! I know Casey has said in the past that the Cabin set is one of their permanent sets   If not then update them please!
    • No. The new studio is closer to the old studio. The Price is Right moved to Glendale.
