They were so fun today. I know some people don't like him but I freaking LOVE Queen Leo. He is awesome in small doses - perfect for Beyond Salem. I adore Greg Rikaart in this role. I actually rewatched all their scenes today because it was just so fun. I totally missed Leo grabbing Will's dick the first time I watched

OMG! And I loved Leo and Jackie texting at the end.

Time for them to come back to Salem.

Also, I love how during those group scenes with Leo and Jackie, Billy Flynn was just sitting on the couch laughing. Like maybe Chad laughing was actually in the script, but BF looked like he had fun being in the background of those scenes.

Leo's complete lack of shame and his audacity just give me life LOL. He's SO over the top but it works in small doses. You know Ron is living through him LOL. 

 

That shower scene ... yes please. I like that it was an actual shower and not some broom closet with a shower head nozzle. But it needed to fit three people so ...

Julianne Morris as Greta had this sweetness and light that emitted from her face. She may not have been Meryl Streep in the acting stakes, but she had chemistry with her screen partners and committed to the part and the script. I mean, the Garden of Eden nonsense was hairy (on many levels), but by God, she did what was asked of her. Even though I could feel her embarrassment burn from my screen.

As for Beyond Salem, I am behind (just finished Ep 1). But I am loving how breezy and fun it is. Everybody looks like they are having a ball, and everybody believes in this project. I also like what I'm hearing about the upcoming episodes pushing the envelope a little in terms of what they can show versus Daytime's restrictions. This is the place to showcase what streaming can allow Days to do beyond a Daytime setting.

I'm not a fan of Lisa Rinna on RHOBH but watching her as Billie on Days, all my old fondness for her is rushing back, lol.

    • 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...

    • Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes. So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc. Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic. Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion. The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.
    • Agnes had written for Bernard Grant for many years on TGL as well as Ernest Graves and Joe Gallison,Doris Belack,Robert Milli,and  Antony Ponzini at AW. So she would probably gravitate to writing a role with an actor in mind or choosing someone she had written for before who she knew could deliver.
    • Once Johnny Dallas' cut himself off from Laurie Ann Karr and their son, and once Laurie successfully recovered from her mental problems, she wanted a new, fresh, and healthy start for the next chapter of her life. She legally reverted her name and changed John Victor's  surname to Karr. After moving to the country (when Teri  Keane was dropped from the show), Bill and Martha Marceau legally adopted Jennifer, the baby girl whom they had earlier taken in when the child's biological mother, Taffy Simms (and other bio family members) proved to be unfit to raise her. Jennifer legally and emotionally became a Marceau, and gave that name to her own daughter, whom Jennifer birthed through surrogacy as a single parent. Et...voila! The Karr and Marceau legacies live on.

    • BLQ is having second thoughts regarding putting her baby up for adoption. Chase is upset he can't tell Dante. So both are putting this on at lulus feet. Saying she is holding it over them. Lulu is doing none of this. 
    • Yes she absolutely was involved in that story which seems to have gone nowhere.  She didn't start to remove herself from the writing until 1973.
