Members Contessa Donatella Posted September 9, 2023 Members Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) 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.

Members ranger1rg Posted September 10, 2023 Members Share Posted September 10, 2023 Respectfully, if someone is constantly "working the room," that IS a truthiness question. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted September 10, 2023 Members Share Posted September 10, 2023 Okay. I guess I just thought it was ... more than a truthiness question. That's what I should have said, as opposed to NOT ONE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 I was right about the baby name! Guess Uncle Ron and I have a similar style Please register in order to view this content 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted September 11, 2023 Author Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 Because, that would be too easy for the "writer". The "writer" wants to do his own schtick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 Are they killing off DVD's character after this arc is done? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 (edited) 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. Edited September 11, 2023 by Donna L.

Members ranger1rg Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jeff Posted September 11, 2023 Members Share Posted September 11, 2023 I tuned in for Victor's funeral, and will admit Jen Lilley is good as Theresa. I didn't know it was confirmed O'Brien is taking over... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirdenEMT Posted September 12, 2023 Members Share Posted September 12, 2023 Jenn Lilly is a joy to watch. Theresa seems to help connect multiple characters and the actress is a joy to watch. It was such a huge mistake not letting her film the 13 week run in the 3 weeks she was available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Antoyne Posted September 12, 2023 Members Share Posted September 12, 2023 Wait John has another new instaDad? Just because DVD was available? What?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted September 12, 2023 Members Share Posted September 12, 2023 Yes & they told the story in one week. From mystery man with no memory & no ID to Voila, Tom Robicheaux, father of John. I think never has so much story been covered at such lightspeed! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted September 12, 2023 Members Share Posted September 12, 2023 Honestly the John/DVD dad story played out in an episode. DVD had a few episodes, but John found out DVD was in the same army unit as Jigsaw in the final scene of one episode and then the next episode we saw the entire reveal happened. The fastest retcon of parentage ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
