Aww..teehee..that's sweet. I have about two weeks of episodes DVR that I haven't watched. I don't know if I'll continue to watch the show after Chandler is gone. I do like JJ, Tripp and fake Jake. Not sure if that'll keep me watching the show.

 

I'm down to just posting in the soap ratings, tennis thread and anything reunion related in the canceled soap thread. 

I'll have to do a goodbye Chandler Massey video too tomorrow..lol

I think that Chandler and Freddie are a mixed bag in terms of their acting--terrible in some scenes, pretty good in others. And they definitely seemed to be giving a lot of lazy, half-hearted performances in recent years. 

 

But for me, the leaving scenes worked pretty well, since they were paired with real pros like John Aniston, Wally Kurth, and Deidre Hall, who helped wring some real emotion out of those scenes.

It says on my TV preview--I'm not sure what they are called, maybe it is TV guide--that "Sami brings in a surprise witness to bolster her case."  I am going to predict that it is Sydney. 

 

I think Sami's now 16 year old daughter is going to come in an pour her heart out to the judge about how horrible Nicole is for kidnapping her.  

 

On Edit: Wow, just a few seconds after posting what I wrote above I have already been proven wrong.  It turns out that Sami's surprise witness is Victor.  I think Sydney would have made a much better choice but apparently TPTB are determined to run with this story about Sami messing up with all her children.  

 

Hopefully they will eventually settle on her having been a better mother to EJ's children.  Maybe they are saving Sydney for the permanent custody hearing.

I'm glad that they managed to weave Victor into Sami and Nicole's storyline. I feel like the show has pretty much forgotten that Victor and Nicole were unhappily married for a few years and that she tried to kill him. 

 

Glad to see that Brady is back. Hope he gets pulled into the Xander/Phillip feud too. Too many times it seems like characters are in their own bubbles and their storylines don't often interact. I'm glad that that's changing.

 

And yeah I'm really gonna miss Will and Sonny, despite the smirking and uneven acting.

The flashbacks only reminded me of the time when both Chandler and Freddie tried and when Freddie actually looked good.

 

More goodbye scenes today, and none of them drawing any real emotion. The actors are to blame, but so is Ron for some terrible writing that made WilSon the most boring gay couple in America.

    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in solid gold. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. (did not see Naomi?) -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white shirt over it, black jacket. Andre - black tee, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
