Oh, look! It's Anna and Valentin!

 

It makes me wonder if given J's work schedule at Disney if he pre-taped like AG used to do when he was going on vacation so he would be around for February Sweeps. Otherwise, like I said, they have been reduced to a C plot after two months of being on the frontburner. I do like they are setting up to save Lucy and it's setting up story beats, but even I was kinda like rme. 

 

AM continues to play layers with Heather, giving motivation to why she wants to see her daughter. I liked hearing about Steven Lars again. And I will love hearing Franco is STILL dead. It just gives weight to her first meeting Esme, which I liked. Esme was reacting like any normal person to a crazy person. And dare I say it...is someone trying to keep Heather around for the long term? For the first time, I thought...wouldn't it be hilarious if whether she has her memory or not...Esme wants NOTHING to do with her mother...even with her memory. And the potential conflict in that with her, Heather, and Ryan.

 

I still can't believe Spencer and Ava buried the hatchet and can hold conversations with each other. I even see sparkage. Which makes me feel weird. lol. 

 

So since Jan 15 has passed, it is going to feel weird for me also when Portia/Curtis wedding starts either next week or during February Sweeps. In the back of my mind, I'm going to be thinking...'January 15...'

 

I hate to say it...but Michael is RIGHT. Carly did it for revenge. And no amount of trying to prop Carly as the sympathetic character is going to work on me. Sorry. Really for a Nina slap in 3...2...1...

LMAO!  She is the worst child character this show has ever had.  I don't think the actress even has a lisp, someone directed her to say those inanely written lines that way to make her seem cute, but failed.  The only character in that whole Finn family worth keeping is the character's grandfather and maybe the uncle Chase.

Anyways, the show has definitely taken a dip post-Britt's death.  Wallow's maternity story is uneventfully boring (unless she actually dies, please).  Hat-Pappy not having schizophrenia and not wanting to play the clarinet at a wedding is even worse.  Why are they wasting people's time like this?

Aha! I knew there was a reason Nik and Liz abruptly reminded everybody of Liz's storyline this past year earlier this week, and Nik's ears perked up when Liz mentioned mind erasing drugs.

 

And here comes

Tasha Yar...going by the clips at the end of Friday's episode.

 

So I take it next week is Nik's exit. So any speculation on the odds they kill Nik?

 

Since I never learned the spoiler tag trick and just in case, people aren't caught up, you can highlight if you want to know.

She told Frank she wanted to leave a week before her Emmy. She didn't think a relationship with Austin would have worked and thought Cody and Britt were more like sibling. She didn't like her death scene (it was unclear what was happening, which is true). Wanted Britt to die of Huntington's.

Basically she left because Steve left and she lost her chance to be a leading lady on the show. That's my takeaway.

Well she wanted to die. She's never coming back, according to her. Maybe the way they killed Britt was petty idk but I doubt it because they did a big tribute to a relatively minor character. I think production really likes Kelly as a person.

    • Good Morning, this is still funny to me but I totally enjoyed what makes up "DemetriKane" so unnecessary, who cares?!!! Glad you like the Emma Peel derivative story.   
    • Christian Streaty penned today's Day's script. https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-streaty/
    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist.
