Some things that they show is doing right

  • Nina and Chance- instant chemistry.  Their scenes today got to me. 
  • Phyllis/Danny/Cricket- I am enjoying this.  Phyllis is starting to get back to her original self before Jack.  Even her outfits are a little out there.
  • Phyllis and Summer at least today.  Phyllis talks about how Nick is Sharon's true love.  I love the history.  It is nice when the show uses it.  I loved how Summer was daydreaming about Chance with Sharon.  She is truly her mother's daughter.
  • Tucker and Ashley- I really can't wait to see more.  I love how Audra is involved in it too.  She is a great addition to the cast.

Some things that they are doing wrong

  • Too many Business storylines
    • How many CEO/COOs and executive changes could there be?
  • Too much Newmans
    • Let's give a rest
  • Not enough Abbotts
    • I need more of Jack and Ashley fighting for Jabot
    • Less Kyle and Billy fighting
  • Lily and Daniel
    • At first they were cute, now they are just boring
    • I do like that Heather is back.  But without Paul what is the point?  Not that I think Paul is needed.
  • More Baldwins

I think Tricia Cast could have chemistry with a rock. She's that good. I wish we could have her full-time.  I love Tucker and Ashley, too. The best scene partner ED has had in decades. Phyllis/Danny/Cricket is old-school fun. I'm really enjoying Audra. It's nice to have a person of color, Nate, truly front burner for a change. Having Mamie back has been awesome as she adds so much to both the Winters/Barber and Abbott families.

For the con, I totally agree about the business storylines. It's gotten to the point of being ridiculous. Some episodes feel like non-stop conversations about mergers, takeover, who's going to be the CEO/COO, etc etc. WHO CARES? Besides Jabot, do the writers even know what Chancellor-Winters or Newman Enteprises even does, much less Kirsten, Inc. LOL. I don't know why the writers/network think that their average viewer would be interested AT ALL in these "corporate stories" (a term I use loosely for them). The show needs to get out of the boardroom and back into the bedroom IMO.

I had this behind spoiler tags.
Now that this has aired in the USA, I'm removing the spoiler tags.

    • That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
    • Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be. 
    • I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here. 
    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
