Surprisingly the show has actually been pretty balanced for a nice change, well except where the heck is Finn?

Yeah Thomas and Steffy sound like 14 year old kids from a bad holiday movie. Steffy sounds like a massive hypocrite when judging Brooke given Steffy’s own recent cheating on both Finn and Liam during moments of weakness.

That confrontation between Carter and Paris's mom...WOW. CC was giving it!!! And I loved every moment of it. But I also loved that Carter was gathering by throwing the fact that Zoe lost him in the first place when she was stringing him along when she wanted to be with Zende. And then Paris's mom blackmailed him? How Dominique of her.

I really hope this all backfires on her somehow…I honestly don’t care if Ridge gets back with Taylor but Brooke has every right to get even with Steffy after this. 
 

im almost wondering since JMW is pregnant and is probably due for maternity leave soon, if Finn (who’s been strangely  absent for all of this)  is gonna get angry with Steffy for interfering in Ridge and Brookes marriage, and Steffy is gonna turn to either Liam (or even better Bill) and get pregnant yet again…with Brooke (or Hope) exposing her affair as revenge this time by May sweeps. I can see that being Thudleys next big “shocker” especially if he’s so adamant to keep up the “Forrester vs Logan” B.S

And a lightbulb goes off in Thudley’s head

I was wondering how JMW would leave out before her maternity leave this time lol. I figured something happens between Steffy and Finn but I was thinking of Finn sleeping with Taylor in response to Steffy’s behavior. That way Brooke could be “see Taylor slept with her daughter’s husband too!!”

Haha, I can be his PR person for all you know!! 

It could go either way, but if Thudley is that determined to make Brooke and Hope the "villains" in all this, I can see him having Steffy walk in on Hope and Finn simply hugging this time, and deciding she can't "take losing to a LOGANNNN yet again..." and decides to leave town for a few months....Giving Thudley enough time to resurrect another forgotten story arc and have Sheila scheme to bring Hope and Finn together...

LMAO. 
 

The sad thing is the drama would have been juicier and the stakes higher if Steffy found out from Douglas first and then a conflicted Steffy was the one who helped Brooke hide the truth because she sympathizes with Brooke while Hope is the one who finds it repulsive. Or Brooke actually opening up together in therapy with Taylor and the two joining up together secretly to prove Brooke may have been setup while Taylor realizes she is over Ridge. 
 

Sheila’s next story? Finn sees Sheila visiting a mysterious teenage girl. After catching multiple visits, Finn finally barges in and learns the girl is his niece Lucy Romalotti. Lucy wants to her Grandma Sheila back to her hometown of Genoa City. Finn encourages a reluctant Sheila to go. When Sheila arrives, she finds out Kevin & Chloe have thrown her a homecoming party at Society! Sheila learns directly from Lauren herself that all of GC has heard she is trying reform and they are willing to give her a chance to start over. Ashland & Adam jointly offer Sheila a job at Newman-Locke while Sharon agrees to be Sheila’s therapist. Phyllis also asks Sheila to help out at the Grand Phoenix since Sheila comes with excellent hosting references from LA. Trouble brews one day when Lucy seems to be obsessing over Moses to steal him away from Faith, but Grandma Sheila and Grandma Phyllis save the day by telling Lucy that obsessing over a guy is unhealthy and to stealing a man is bad karma. Lucy agrees and understands. Phyllis, Sheila and Lucy all  hug over cheesecake at Crimson Lights.

Well, Taylor's fling with Rick was when Phoebe was pursuing him so while it is not nearly as far as "daughter's husband", this is yet another episode the show is pretending never happened now that we are back to Taylor being 90s Saint Taylor (which I am fine with until I hear any of the Logan-haters).

So far they have been writing all this with a degree of cleverness I wasn't expecting so even if the momentum has dulled a bit, I am going to keep faith they are going to keep it interesting and that ya'll are right that Steffy's push is not just a convenient but irritating plot device to push Taylor/Ridge and instead the set-up for something more twisty.

We shall see.

    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "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 with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      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...
