I wondered if Sheila had saved Steffy from death yet, or her mother again, or Finn....or someone, anyone.  Then I read the recaps.  Yep, there it is.  Because.....ya gotta dumb down everything for Sheila.  

It's a shame Finn wasn't a more attentive parent.  Because he's only a doctor, he doesn't understand needing to put the phone away and tend to your children.  This is all very plausible.  That....you'd take your kid to the beach and pay little attention to them, especially with your deranged mother on the loose who has a long history of stealing things or people, stalking, murder accusations....definitely shot some people....and, need I say more?

I said months ago - it's only a matter of time until Finn can't "protect Steffi and the family" from his mother.  Then, Steffy and Finn will be done, kaput, etc.....and hopefully Sheila will really kill him off this time.  He's nice to look at, but a total throwaway character like Ivy, Flo, Shauna, et al.

Yeah Finn has been a character who has been front burner for 3 years now and is popular unlike the duds that were Ivy, Flo, and Shauna. 
 

Well I do have to appreciate Finn’s honesty and upfrontness about the beach incident whereas Liam & Steffy have been going behind everyone’s back and in Liam’s case underhanded tactics. Makes the Lame one even look worse. 
 

Maybe I can hold out for Sheila killing Liam?

Yep, so much so that when he "died" last year, there was as SAVE FINN movement going on on various social media sites, even BOLD Producer Casey was shocked by the backlash to Finn dying. SOD even commented their mail bag was full of "Save Finn" letters too

Shauna & Flo leave & no one bats an eye, and Ivy too

Plus SINN is the show's most popular couple, so yeah lol

It's funny that people think Finn is above what they're going to do to him.  They'll toss him to the Sheila wolves just like every other character.  The show at this point HAS to be about Sheila.  They're stuck.  So you will be getting more of stupidity.  Finn will be reduced to a screetching school girl.  Because why?  Sheila.

A lot of the manufactured and accelerated tension with SINN is directly tied to JMW's *annual* leave.

The other 3 existing shows currently include at least 2 characters each that have committed similar crimes, including murder. Yet, those characters have been incorporated into the fabric of the show. Most of those characters did spend time in jail as part of the road back.

If Thomas can 'put in the work' to be a cleansed man through two weeks of intensive therapy, give Sheila six weeks. Instead of burning through tons of story, have Sheila view this chance with Finn + Deacon as incentive to fight her demons. Have Finn meet his 5 siblings, etc. create that conflict with Steffy, but have them work through it as a couple - anything to avoid Steam!

Spiking Brooke's drink - like Quinn before her - shouldn't have gotten us to the alley.

Is he though?  What part of his character tells us that he would never turn his back on a kid at the beach?   It's almost like Finn fans can't accept that he is capable of doing something really stupid.  You want him to be perfect?  That's boring.   I've been enjoying these last couple of episodes because this is the most interesting Finn/Steffy have been.  I really like this conflict.  This is the type of family drama that's fun to watch, IMO.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

      I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.

      Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her

      @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

      https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.

      I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
