I had wondered about that & had lost track! 

I would be glad to ignore you if you would return the favor. But, don't tell lies & inaccuracies about me or what I post. We can agree to disagree & that would be great. And, listen, you can set it up to literally ignore me so you won't be bothered.

Considering the cast used to get called back to film filler scenes it wouldn't surprise me if that would've been done to beef it up - plus I could imagine that they did a lot of creative re-cutting of episodes in the past, so scenes from those episodes that are 40+ minutes might've been used in earlier episodes.

Cringey camp, petty bitchfights, historical references. Yep, this had to be a Jamey episode. Too bad that good streak he was on ended so quickly. I did like the references to DJ and Samantha though.

I understand Steve’s anger and his plan to kill Orpheus but it seems kind of random to me. The last time we saw him, it didn’t seem like he was planning anything like this at all. And he was a little rude shooing that couple out of the Pub

I can’t believe it took them this long to follow up on Marlena, Kate and Kayla. They really got to fix those pacing problems. And I see that the devil eyes are now CGI instead of contact lenses.

And Jordan? That girl looks like she’s been under the knife more than a stick of butter. Why so many surgeries lol

Chrishell was almost unrecognizable in that promo. I am curious how this show is doing on Peacock (and what a full Jamey Giddens-scripted episode looks like

Me, too!! 

Yeah, they could have had their secret meeting at any one of their motel 6 looking apartments!

 

Pacing is Problem ONE! But is it something they're concerned with?

 

Huh. I didn't notice. I do know that now she has a girlfriend instead of a boyfriend. 

Carolyn Culliton did the script & the co-EP Peacock point man, Al Alarr directed. CCulliton's twitter name is Old Bat Number such & such. I like the attitude.

Jamey is a breakdown writer for Days, not a scriptwriter.  He usually does one breakdown a week.  He tweeted that he did today (Feb 3)

Today (Feb 3) episode's script was written by Carolyn Culliton

Edit, I see that was just posted above.

FYI, the previous issue of SOD said Chandler was done with this arc, as Will had left town to work on a movie.  The new issue of SOD says whoops, he actually appears a few more times before the end of this arc.
(I know this isn't a spoiler thread. I just wanted to clarify that one thing.)

I just about rolled my eyes out of my sockets when they had it be New Zealand where he has to go to shoot! Good Lord. New Zealand? Is this movie on a scale with the LOTR saga?

I just realized what I want to happen in White Space! I am guessing that Marlena makes a deal with the devil. I'd like her to bring Adrienne back with them. Here''s Judi, the Horse Whisperer, from her IG.

    • 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.
