I cannot wait until Diane's bitchiness blows up in her and Jack's faces.  Jack has been made into a complete moron, and treats Phyllis awfully, while Diane grins like a evil cat lol.  Kyle and Summer's love of Diane is sickening also, but more understandable since both were kids when Diane was in Genoa City before her faked death.

Yes to the first comment but Phyllis is awful and therefore deserves everything she gets.

And did my eyes deceive me, but when Phyll(in a hideous top that defies description) was chatting at the Dive Bar with Summer there were actually extras in the background!!

Will Sharon finally get some customers at CL?

Phyllis hasn't been awful RECENTLY!!  except for sleeping with Nick when she was with Billy.  Diane set her up for when Jack overheard and overreacted to what Phyllis told Diane about sleeping with Jack basically to piss Diane off, she said that because Diane kept after her, until she said that.  Jack acts like a mad little or teen boy. Kyle acts very similar but being in his 60's and having been involved with women like Phyllis, Diane, Nikki, Patty, should be wiser about Phyllis and Diane. 

CORRECTED my left out word Recently

If Christine reacted in the over the top way Phyllis does whenever she sees Diane (and Phyllis tried to murder her), she would say it's in the past and Christine needs to get over it. She acted that way in 2012 when they finally discovered she was responsible for the hit and run, but the statute of limitations had run out. Acting like it was so ridiculous that anyone still cared about that. Well bitch Diane framed you for that fire 20 years ago, get over it..

8-3

 

While I think it was a waste for Ashland to die, I have to admit that watching the fallout has not been boring. Actually, it's giving Chance something to do. And sorry he needed something to do that felt in character. Chance has for the most part been a do-gooder so I knew it was not the best idea for Victoria and Nick to rope him into their situation. Now if it leads to conflict with Abby (and ropes in Nina) that would be great. So it was nice to see some of what I am used to from Chance.

 

Oooooh how much I wanted to slap Giggly Heffa the other day. I cannot believe she is so selfish and insecure that she went off in the park over Diane with Harrison so nearby. If that is the overacting you all be talking about, she can keep that.

 

See...Imani DID vanish.

Disappointed, but good to see Devon vs Nate is still going on. Though right now, I'm Team Devon. Nate just overreacted. Then again, Devon overreacted a little bit the day before. It will be interesting to see where it goes while Imani is out of town.

 

On a trivial note...JM has been looking yummy in his suit pants as of late. And there was one camera angle on 8-1 that was one old school Y&R camera angle, and at the same time showed it ALL off. Clearly, someone else was liking him that day, too.  

 

Speaking of JM...I continue to wonder if they will go there with Nick and Sally.

It seems Robert Newman didn't waste any time after leaving YR either he is currently back on stage in Michigan which is like an hour and a half away from where he lives via a plane ride instead of the four/five one he took to LA. 

 

The thing is that Phyllis, Nikki, and Ashley are treating Diane like she is on par with Patty Williams or Mari Jo Mason. I'm like yes, she framed you for murder and set you up as an arsonist, but you all have done some outlandish things in your time as well. I hope Diane or Kyle get to mention some of Phyllis misdeeds to her face when you know what hits the fan.

Now hold up one minute!!!

 

Diane did not set Phyllis up for Jack to walk in on her marking her territory all in public. Phyllis did that alllllllll on her own. Diane did however take full adavantage of Phyllis being her own worst enemy though.

    • 40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season. The Cosby Show – Cliff’s Birthday (season 1 finale, May 9): Clair and the children surprise Cliff by planning a birthday celebration around a Lena Horne concert. Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.

    • Charles Grant first appeared as Evan in September 1988. I was surprised to come across this item from December 1985, almost 3 years earlier: "Lots of action behind the scenes at Another World . . . I have bad news for fans of Christopher Holder (Peter Love). He will be leaving the show in the new year. I have heard that the producers are recasting the part and are also seeing actors for new roles. One of the main characters this spring will be Marlee [sic] and Victoria's father. The producers have been talking to Charles Flohe (John "Preacher" Emerson, Edge Of Night) about another new character to be featured. I will fill you in on the results as soon as I know." It seems obviously too early for anyone to have been planning to introduce Evan Frame. Based on the context he's not being considered as a recast of Peter. Maybe they were considering him for the character that turned out to be Neal, who started around the same time as Marcus Smythe as Peter?
    • Randall Edwards (and Brian Tarantina), with the opening night cast of 1985's Biloxi Blues, plus director Gene Saks and playwright Neil Simon.

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
