It’s funny Leo has made me dislike the character of Kevin even more than I already disliked Kevin. So having to see both Kevin and Leo today was just like ughhhhh. Maybe one day Rikkart will play a character I can enjoy

I really do think Trevor and Eileen have amazing chemistry together. I wish they had been a way to actually make Tucker and Ashley viable but he was literally still sleeping with Audra whenever he was bored.  I can’t decide if Tucker angrily blacked out so he doesn’t remember what happened in Paris or if he’s faking,

I could be down for Tucker and Phyllis. Both of them actually should be dating other town pariahs.

Lord Daniel has a bit too much in common with his papa. Though I do like the Heather/Daniel/Lily triangle. He really fell right back into Heather as soon as Lily had a crisis.

Brittany! Raul! Bobby! JT! Heather Tom! Actual sets and an actual business story. 

Actually I feel like Raul and Brittany should be leading their own family. I know Jack Smith kind of messed up Brittany trying so hard to make her the new Nikki, but I hated how that story ended so badly.

Josh Morrow and Don Diamont with dueling buzz cuts and Thad Luckinbill with his spiky boy-band twink hair.

I still don’t f*** with Kevin due to these episodes. So disturbing. Greg Rikaart gives great villain, though. I wish these shows would allow him to play darker and not goofy.

Nikki and HT/Victoria’s hair… Lord. Not sure why they had to be so blindingly blonde.

No, what I meant was...
Kevin locking up Colleen and burning down Gina's
is airing in USA on December 29, as you said.
(and aired in Canada on Dec. 28).

But a *follow-up* episode, from a few days later,
airs in USA on January 1st.
And airs in Canada Dec. 29.

GR was legit great back then. He’s talented but doesn’t get to show it much other than moments. I know he’s well-liked BTS and Kevin still has his stans even though he should have been killed off after this.

EB’s “hair”… LOL. 

The female cast looked very plasticky around this time. Patty Weaver looked amazing tho. Shame what they did to Gina’s.

Yeah if Kevin had been killed off the following year we’d probably look back fondly on him as a crazed villain like David Kimble.

I was bit shocked to see SW with that hair length though as I don’t remember that hairstyle on her—at first glance I thought she was Mitzi Kapture’s Anita Hodges until she spoke.

Ashley looks crazy af walking around with that baby. They really did a number on her character over the years.

EB can be SO good when he wants to be in small moments, like in that final scene with Ashley. We don’t get good group scenes like that anymore.

    • Is there anything in print or fan lore or info about Don Stewart & temperament or behavior? Of course my brain could be playing tricks on me. 
    • “On ERICA versus RACHEL, Erica was a very unique character. ... Rachel was a lower-class Erica, her mother was a cleaning woman, and her goals were not nearly stratospheric as Erica’s. Rachel just wanted to marry Russ or somebody with money. What Erica and Rachel have in common is they thought if they could get their dream, they’d be satisfied. But that dream has been very elusive.”– Agnes Nixon, Creator, ONE LIFE TO LIVE, ALL MY CHILDREN, and LOVING So my takeaway from this, plus knowing the characters, is that both Rachel & Erica schemed for acquisition. They wanted to acquire romance, husbands, prosperity, a kind of low-level fame or notoriety.  Am I correct in thinking that Carla schemed for safety, camouflage, to keep from getting caught & so for survival? Or did she also scheme for things similar to above?

    • Paula and Jeanne’s first time writing Alex and Stephanie. It didn’t seem like there were any changes in Alex at all lol but I can’t help  but think that that’s more on RSW than the writing. I didn’t see a big change with Stephanie either, but I did enjoy her scenes with Kayla, whose character has gotten so much stronger since last week. I hope we get to see a lot more of their relationship, and their relationship with Steve as well. As for Steve and Shawn stealing the drug to try to save Bo, idk. I don’t dislike it, but I just don’t know lol but I also think that it is time for Steve to pass the torch on to the next hero.  And finally, Javi showed some kind of spark! I was a little worried in his first scene today that he was going to continue to be so obsessed with Leo, but him demanding that Leo drop the investigation into Rafe and Gabi could actually be pretty interesting. I don’t think that would’ve happened under Ron. And if we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, let them at least have some kind of actual conflict, instead of the forced, biased crap that we were subjected to. And speaking of Leo, one year ago today, he got Dimitri’s letter

      Btw, why is Gabi so beholden to Javi? Cousin or not, if I was her, the minute he said to her, “If he goes, I go”, I would’ve been like  Also, are they going to go there with Philip and Gabi? I’d prefer that than Gabi getting involved with Alex.
