Michael's new haircut looks really good. That Philip Kiriakis style that he was rockin during Nina's trial was absolutely terrible. 

And, these constant mob conflict storylines with no follow up really need to end. Carly/Sonny/Nina is good enough without adding that dynamic, or bringing Curtis' father into it.

Man, this show is boring, boring, boring.

How many times can we see the same scenes over and over again with Carly/Sonny/Nina? It's the same conversation every day. And we get so much point of view about their every thought and feeling while other characters get nothing. We see Carly say the same thing to Olivia, Drew, and Diane. We see Sonny talking to Brick. Nina has the same conversation with Phyllis, Ava, and Britt. There is no reason for this story to be on five days a week when nothing is happening. I'm tired.

Also, they already seem to have no idea what to do with Drew. He's just the town therapist. A talk-to. Drew has no personality. He's just Mr. Nice Guy. Give him an edge. Give him some trauma after what he went through. He's way too well adjusted. 

I cannot believe we're spending time on Marshall and Epiphany. The Jeff Webber story got dropped and there's been almost no movement with the teens in months, but we can give Mr. Hat a pairing?! 

Dreadfully boring episode today.

I actually like the way they played that Britt/Nina scene yesterday. It’s a family connection that hasn’t been explored anywhere near enough on this show, and it was quite cool how Britt was full on trying to convince (manipulate?) Nina to reach out to Sonny. 

Considering who their mothers are (sisters who hated each other’s guts), this is a dynamic I’m keen to see explored a lot more.

I cannot believe they're potentially going for Carly and Drew. How boring can you get? He is so obviously a Jason stand-in for her (like Serial Killer Franco before him, when Franco was supposed to be the twin) that there is no point.

    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime.
