I would suggest that it's not per se a truthiness question. I believe he almost always or even always has some agenda behind whatever he's saying & we of course have no way of knowing what those many agendas might be. So his point of view dances around like a point of light. The only time I think "That's it. That is his core." is when he tweets about Irna or how he writes or Bill Bell, etc. The rest of the time, to me at least, he is working the room. 

I've been sporting this amazing picture her husband took of her. His tribute, so nice. It's lovely seeing someone so in love with someone so lovable.

I was right about the baby name! Guess Uncle Ron and I have a similar style

Could have done without Sarah’s nasty ass attitude though. That look she shot at Maggie after she asked if there was something else she wanted to tell Xander made me want to curse her out. In this case, I don’t think it’s the writing that’s the problem, I think it’s the portrayal.

The same can be said for RSW/Alex. He’s not a romantic lead, no matter what the show tries to force feed us. 

I am intrigued by this mystery surrounding Victor, and also what it could mean for all these characters. Theresa adds another layer to this storyline that could be interesting to see. It also ties in Stephanie, who I was glad to see have scenes with her cousin today. Gimme a Chad/Stephanie/Alex/Theresa/Brady/Chloe/Xander/Sarah/Rex mess!

As for Maggie, I hope this all turns out to be a scheme and that she and Victor really were married.

Why did Dick Van Dyke need to turn out to be John's dad (having apparently swapped dogtags with Jigsaw)? It's not like he's going to keep recurring on the show for years to come. Just make him the long-lost Horton (Tommy?) and call it a day.

Victoria Margaret, very nice. 

I don't see anything wrong with Sarah right now. And, of course, it is way soapy to have this secret paternity issue planted. If the show goes on & on, there can be plenty of opportunities for it to be winked at as well as even an ultimate opportunity for it to come out as a reveal. I'm almost always for that kind of soapiness in the writing. 

Completely agree. 

Also agree but it doesn't look like Maggie, Justin, Bonnie & anyone else being thrown out of the K Mansion will have any relief any time soon. On the plus side, we must be gonna have Louise Sorel for a while & that to me is a big plus.

I'm no fan of Jen Lilley's, but I have to admit that she kills it as Theresa. She's really great in that role, and I think we're in for a THUD when Emily O'Brien takes over shortly.

O'Brien is a good actor, but she's not only replacing someone who's crushing the role, but playing another role just episodes after leaving the part of Gwen.

    • I'm fighting for my life on another board for my husband Brandon and I'll do it here too lmao
    • I don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.
    • Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.    
    • You've been seeing him all along. You just didn't know it was him, I guess.

    • Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.
    • Melissa Ordway announced she was moved to recurring back in November but is still credited with the contract cast members.
    • I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.  
    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows. 
    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
