Sounds like some layers and nuances that I'll be looking forward to seeing in the next few days.

 

AM has definitely done a great job as a recast for Heather. And while I admit to feeling a way about that, I love the layers she has been giving. The fact that I know RM can do that as well so it doesn't feel like one vs the other is a bonus.

See? THAT was what I was expecting last Thursday and got Willow all up in my face.

After all of that crazy action, adventure, and acting, a breather episode before the next twist.

 

I am feeling the broken souls vibe that both Spencer and Trina are putting out and playing really well. The melancholic family tragedy of it all. That they are parallel to each other resonates and shows how they are made for each other. Perhaps it's my love of Wuthering Heights showing, but  

 

I liked the Jordan/Curtis scenes, but I couldn't help but wonder what happened to the dynamic energy that the actor that played Curtis used to give off. He was kinda low vibe in some parts of it. Jordan had more energy. 

 

I have mixed feelings about Liz. On one hand, I was very worried given how the writers fumbled the Liz and her parents arc and seem to be leaning her back into Finn's direction, that Liz would vanish back into the woodwork. So happy that Liz is very much involved in things OUTSIDE of Finn. Mixing it up with Ava. Her part in Nik's holding Esme. Things having to do with HER. On the other hand, did she really have to confess? lol. But that said...her and Finn. Ugh. She was so free. And I like her having something meaty to sink her teeth into. 

 

And AM continues to be a revelation as NuHeather. I can still hear her screams. In this case, her pain...her longing to connect to her daughter. And then to see vengeance in her eyes when they fell on Laura. I knew it was coming when Esme stumbled into Laura's arms on Spoon Island so those scenes were superb. I always like when GF allows Laura to show some edge. Some fire. And AM...who has been playing layers since she took over for Heather...for the first time showed a Heather with a threatening menace to her. And the fact that both characters are legacy brings a whole other level to it since I really can't recall them mixing it up much. So I'm more here for Heather vs Laura than Laura vs Victor...which honestly is petering out again.

    • 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. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
