can we please just have Sheila go to therapy, already and integrate her into the families/cast? This is a tired joke, at this point. Bill, Thomas and Taylor are running around like upstanding citizens, even after the trainwreck they wrote each of them into in the past. Let it go. Sheila is nowhere near the worst of the worst, let alone the worst of the current cast. Let her live, already.

I respectfully completely disagree.  She is evil.  No therapy will help.

She's not someone with a mental health problem.  She's evil and cares for nothing/nobody but her own objectives.  Anyone she says she loves is just a tool to her.

I have watched Sheila for over 30 years since Y&R.  She cannot be helped.  In my opinion there is nothing worse than a villain being integrated into the community while continuing to be an evil villain.  It's ruined Days.

she never burned down a building with people in it just to build another building with their name on it, and granted she chased someone off the road... but they didn't die. Thomas killed Emma Barber, or are we gonna pretend that never happened? And she never killed anyone by drunk driving. 

let's get a grip, here. Sheila is not better or worse than your average soap character in this day and age where Sonny Corinthos is the patriarch/patron saint of GH. If we're gonna get on a high horse and demand characters pay for their crimes or whatever, let's round them all up. LOL

I agree that mobster Sonny Corinthos should not be a main character on GH, he is should not be considered a regular member of the community.  I stopped watching GH for many years because of that character.

I feel that neither Sheila Carter nor Sonny Corinthos should be regular characters but obviously the soap writers feel differently.

I'm not comparing Sheila to characters from other soaps. You said, and I quote "Sheila is nowhere near the worst of the worst, let alone the worst of the current cast."

That's what I was responding to. And Sheila is, by far, the worst and most evil character on B&B, now and throughout history. Do I really need to remind you of all the heinous things she's done? Yes, other characters have done bad things, but compared to Sheila Carter they're practically saints. That's not to say I didn't enjoy her reign of terror the first time around. Kimberlin Brown played her to perfection and her confrontations with Susan Flannery's Stephanie were absolutely riveting. But that was 25-30 years ago. Now Sheila is a tired cliche, and she should have been put out to pasture long ago.

sure. I highly doubt it's anything worse than what characters currently on the canvas chilling have ever done in the past and never answered for. At least Sheila supposedly went to prison and "paid" for her crimes (that she was caught out over. LOL) meanwhile peeps in B&B have "grown" and "changed" and that's enough. lmao!

that said, this Sheila marry-go-round is a yellow bricked, boring road to nowhere. But it is what it is and if they're gonna keep Sheila around I believe they should rehab her. Because she's not scary anymore.

Well, let's see.....

She shot Taylor, Brooke, Stephanie, Finn and Steffy; she tried to drown Lauren in a hot tub; she held the Forresters, Lauren and James hostage at gunpoint and threatened to kill them; she kidnapped James and held him prisoner in a basement; she deliberately killed a man with bees; she ran Li off the road; she held Finn captive; she tried to pimp out her own daughter Mary/Erica to Rick; she poisoned Stephanie with mercury; she kidnapped Brooke and Ridge on their honeymoon; she tampered with Brooke's non-alcoholic champagne; she threatened to harm Thomas when he was a baby to keep Stephanie away from James

And that's just on B&B. You can add her crimes on Y&R to that list.

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • 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 with back polka dots on black background) 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.
