I was thinking the same thing; where did that scene come from?

 

I’m glad they did though. The set actually looked like a brand new one too. If it was actually a redressed set, I couldn’t tell which one it was

^^Ugh... Princess Gina and Clyde??

 

Even though I didn't like the storyline and the way it played out, I'd much rather have had it the way that it was then to see Gina and Clyde working together. Gina wouldn't have even looked at that guy. If anything, he would have just been some errand boy for her.

 

I do have to admit though that I'm really liking the show as of now. I thought today's episode was particularly good. The acting seemed on point for the most part. And it does seem like that the show is bringing back those family dynamics that soaps have.

 

And this isn't a spoiler, but I'm sure we all know that in the end Bonnie is going to turn out to be Adrienne with Bonnie's memories.

Thanks!

Marlena found out that Allie is pregnant .She agreed not to tell Sami. WilSon, and Rafe all want the baby. As the show ends Will finds Rafe outside Eric's apartment. Steve and Kayla reunited at the airport.  At Adrienne's grave Justin see's Adrienne.  But it's Bon Bon.

How sad we're excited about a different (aka redressed) set. LOL. Says it all, doesn't it?

 

Some of the family dynamics have definitely improved.

 

I still can't say it's must see at all. I feel no urgency to watch. Last time I felt any urgency for DAYS was around 2012/2013. 

 

I'm already convinced it's Adrienne and not Bonnie. I thought it was Bonnie who died months ago. It felt like Bonnie playing Adrienne at the time, IMHO. And the nail coloring she had on reminded me of Bonnie. But we'll see. Ron often does the opposite when we 'figure things out' but since it was written like a year ago ...

You're right. I feel that way too. I've been enjoying a lot more, this past month or so, but I'm not gonna go rave on social media or on here about how wonderful it is. But then again that could just be me. The show has definitely seemed more character driven as opposed to plot driven, which works much better when you have no budget.

 

And yeah, you're also right about Ron. But as long as he doesn't say that Adrienne has D.I.D and that the Bonnie personality took over, I'll be fine with the twist lol. He did something similar on OLTL with Gigi and Stacy.

It's definitely improved but I've been down this road before. But hopefully 'the shift' continues. The Jarlena dynamics are so enjoyable to me. I agree on it being more character driven, that's a good point.

 

Yep, he did with Gigi and Stacy. That was awful, but yep. He's ReRon for a reson, LOL

 

I also think Gwen and Allie and Claire have injected a much needed boost of energy. 

 

My other main problem is just the lack of cohesive flow. It improves at times but you get invested in what's going on but then it's over. Things happen for a week and then it's on to the next week. It's just hard to invest in right now but it is a LOT more watchable for sure.

I'm liking what they're doing with John and Marlena too. They're still on the front burner, but they're there for family and friends, helping them out with their problems, etc. They need to stay like that for a while. They can only be kidnapped, held hostage or end up in the hospital so many times before you get tired of it lol. 

 

I think the lack of cohesive flow is more about episode guarantees than anything. One of the many things that they wouldn't have to worry about if they just had a little more money.

      Another I wonder about if they thought Joe Gallison would have more of an impact after his AW success. Was Agnes still involved with OLTL then?

      I thought I was the only one. They do nothing for me. I enjoy Dani which seems to be an unpopular opinion here, but Andre to me is as unnecessary as Ashley and Derek. Not only should Vanessa, Nicole's bestie, and her husband have been there but where are Naomi and her man?

      I think Vanessa not being there was a matter of choices in who to have there without overloading the interactions. Nicole is going to have to interact with her kids, parents, sister and of course have it out with Ted. Any interaction with Vanessa will have to be after the whole mess goes down.

      Right--I did think of that, as it was around the same few years.  Accents I guess...

      It is an insult. To the viewer's intelligence. Everything in this show in the past 4 years has been horribly conceived, produced like a cheap tik-tok video, without any build up or psychological reasoning, and then re-written to level 0 in couple of weeks (where everything is ABSOLUTELY the same as it was before it happened). People get gravely sick and then recover in 5 episodes, because of miracle cures. People get killed and un-killed in the most cartoonish Scooby-Doo scenarios, people get pardoned after killing 2 innocent victims, people become and unbecome CEOs with the snap of a finger. But when you look around in a month or two or three... it's like absolutely nothing has happened. Nobody has grown... or evolved... or changed. We still have Steffy talking to Ridge how Hope and her mother are not worthy. We still have Brooke crying about something that Ridge said. We still have Hope at the same emotional limbo she's been put in ever since Brad decided she needs a re-vamp and made her a ho. EVERYTHING IS THE SAME. Only the Taylors change every few seasons and become increasingly younger. The problem I have with Liam's storyline is the problem I have with every storyline - why should I care if he is dying or sick with cancer when I haven't seen him in 2 years?!! Why go from 0 to a 100 like that. The same way with Sheila... who was backburned for months... before getting fake-killed for ratings. Why would we care about that... when Sheila was a non-entity before that.  Or why should I care for Brooke... when she's been ABSOLUTELY NOTHING of a character for years... to now all of a sudden re-birthed into a lingerie queen and CEO?   Back in the day, we... the viewers of this horrible show... cared and loved to see characters struggle from point A to point B. We wanted to see the build up, the makings of something. Not get a finished result that is undone after a week or two. When Brooke became CEO in 1993... we cheered because it mattered and because she gave HER ALL to get to that point. It was a revenge after years and years of abuse, being slapped around like a homeless dog by Stephanie. She plotted and calculated her every move. But she was also raw and hurt. She was both opportunist and a heroine. She had dept and dimensions. THAT WAS A CHARACTER. That was a human being.   My diagnosis is that at this point Bradley Bell doesn't care. Bold is living off of past history, fans being loyal, the show being 18 minutes of crap that people watch to laugh at. He sees the ratings are still okay and even improving and he DOES NOT GIVE A S-IT. He is even more motivated to continue with the current style of trash. It will only get worse from this day on.  He is way pass the period where he wanted to tell stories or impress the viewers with anything. (Not that he was particularly good about that anyways) I would not even be surprised if he is writing this drivel on complete auto-pilot at this point. Maybe he asks Chat GPT what to write each week. That's how it feels. IF IT'S THE OPPOSITE... and he is trying and that's the BEST HE CAN DO?!!! Then we are really f-cked.  Even Bradley Bell was NOT THAT HORRIBLE guys. But times change and people age... and that's all I'm going to say.

      -- Really good episode today, with a lot more happening than I expected. -- SilkPress is great, but I don't see the need to criticize Dani/KM when supporting Leslie. -- That being said, I don't like Dani with Andre. I think they should end that as soon as possible. -- Very lame that Vanessa and Doug weren't there. If they want to impress on us that Vanessa is Nicole's best friend, they need to do better. -- Brandon Claybon continues to improve as Martin, and his relationship with Smitty finally feels real. -- Dr. Carlton is, as others have posted, fine as fck. We need more.

      As much as I have hyped the looks on this show, those dresses did not impress today. Since the premeire, there's only been one look that I can truly say IMO didn't work (and it honestly wasn't even that bad). It was an outfit Dani wore. These flowly wide leg trousers and it was paired with a loose top with a cowl neck. However, I didn't LOVE a single dress on any of the ladies today. Kat's was great only because it suits the character and her personality - so an A for that. It's a good dress. Dana's was also really nice. Everyone else either just was meh, had something unflattering about the fit, or didn't really fit the vibe.  Also, this isn't BTG's fault. It's just the state of soap operas today, but that event felt empty. Tables of 3

      I mean it was nice that they had some extras on there, but it definitely didn't feel like an event when the family was pretty much ever table there.  That was a nice end to the episode and I wonder how this is going to unfold.

      I was looking at the AWHP synopses from the period where Quinn had a stalker in 1984 and it refers to pranks and phone calls. Does anybody remember what the pranks were? Or were they just disturbing phone calls?
