The Johnny/Chanel/Allie triangle so far is very cringe worthy to watch. The acting yesterday by the three was terrible.

First few seconds but stopped because Alan was all lovely dovey with Ron.

I think I'm overthinking it.  Nicole spent months pining over Rafe because she loved him so much.  Now it's back to Eric, but you are correct.  It's better than the obstacle being someone in a mask or burned alive in a warehouse lol.

Agreed.  Marlena's penthouse had depth and two levels and a balcony so you knew there were places/rooms you didn't see.  I frankly can't even figure out where the kitchen would be in Marlena's townhouse-let alone multiple bedrooms and bathrooms.  What do they do when all the occupants are home?  There isn't even enough seating for all of them in the living room, possibly not even enough standing room lol.

LOL! Glad I'm not in the minority on this one. No, it's lame as all hell. I can't say that Chanel is being immature, but Allie and Johnny are both acting like a bunch of sixth graders. I understand sibling rivalry and all, but these two fictional twits are acting dumb - like an eyeroll dumb. Especially when it comes to their approach. Believe it or not, I'm trying be nice about it.

I've always enjoyed it, but I'm starting to not like how it's becoming a competition between Johnny and Allie. They're acting like Chanel is some trophy. Idk why it's being written like that when it was already fine the way it was.

Well, I can believe that Nicole only latched so much onto Rafe as a way of getting over Eric (which she really isn't) or that she's doesn't think she's good enough for Eric, but is good enough for Rafe

Well, yeah. VERY that.

She isn't a trophy and that's just the thing. Which is why I was asking if she's like B&B's Paris as I don't understand the Paris fanfare. The only thing I remember about Paris is when she sang a slower version of the Star Spangled Banner at a Los Angeles Dodgers game. And then, I looked at the baseball crowd and one guy was "diddle-doodling" on his smartphone while she was singing. Still to this day, I don't understand what makes Paris so divine. She should come to a Chicago Cubs game and sing. At least here, we'll throw a bunch of hotdogs at her.

So, where was I? Oh, yes. The irresistible Chanel love. I guess she's okay. Maybe it's her cupcakes. No pun intended.

Carson Boatman is sex on a stick but his acting is atrocious. All he does is bobble his head. He has no acting skills.

The actress who plays Allie is getting just as bad. This childish behavior acting does her no favors.

Honestly the whole story would have been better with EJ instead of Rafe.  From a psychological standpoint Nicole thinking EJ is what she deserves.  Rafe is an idiot with mostly horrible taste in women, but he's a good guy and not that much different than Eric with his moral values.  She's basically switching from one guy who judges her for her mistakes to another similar one.

Agree with all those that are disliking the writing for Chanel/Allie/Johnny.  The twins bicker and Chanel is visibly uncomfortable over it all.  At this point she might as well leave town with Tripp.

Its the same grin and bobble head movement as Carson. The hair too matches Carson but the hot looks of course not.

Why was Eric brought back? The actor is being wasted. He signed a six month contract yet isn't on at all.

I was thinking Chanel should drop both and find someone new.

It's so weird to bring Greg Vaughn back and not use him.  This is why he left the first time.  He has a lot of things he could do besides mooning over Nicole.  Eric shares scenes with people, but he's just not involved in an actual story.

Listen, after the Devil and the way Johnny/Allie treated her as the devil, I would high tail it out of town or find someone who's never met a Horton or Brady.   She could always take up with Theo again since they do nothing with him either.  Or a returned J.J.

Yeah, I thought of that and remembered Guiding Light's Michelle Ray Smith who played Ava? I mean, it was different because if I'm not mistaken, PGP had her on contract and the actress didn't show up in Springfield until many months later. I think. Going back to Greg Vaughn, I'm sure he's okay collecting that "smack daddy cash" while not being much present on canvas. And if it's a 6-month contract (unless he resigns?), then I don't care how his story or Nicole's story will pan out for that matter. What will the writers do? What? Have him join the priesthood yet again during his last two episodes? Yeah, it's nice to see him and all, but I don't care about the outcome of whatever it will be considering the 6 month contract.

Leo and the Jan stuff was ff material but overall this was an ok episode. Welcome back, Sami. We’ve missed you!

I see the show is trolling us with Jan’s baby name

I did love the scenes between EJ and Chad though. They have good brother chemistry. But my biggest criticism is for Ben. Why did the serial killer get to talk about Abigail before her cousin and bff Sonny did??

    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
