Ummmmm.... His facial expression ....is he being naughty?

 

Btw.......

And Eric isn't dying. 

Why?

None of his kids are there.

The best ending he could've had was to leave with fake Stephanie.

By fake I mean she didn't return. It was old footage.

It's quite interesting because Flannery wanted to retire literally YEARS before she did. But, she set herself up. She'd tell them how much she wanted to retire but also that she didn't want to hurt them so if they needed her to stay on, well, she would do that & postpone her retirement. Of course, then, they took advantage of that & always HAD TO HAVE her stay for just "awhile longer"! Ronn Moss inadvertently probably helped her climb out of the catch-22 she lived in for several years!

It’s laughable to me since he’s lucky to have ever worked or he literally would have been that “wait who was the guy who was in Player? Wait was that the band’s name?” Guy.  He woulda been that guy. He honestly ranted on behalf of Susan also. That’s as icky as his scarfy dirty man bun needs to shave look.   In the other pic of RJ and (Luna?)?  Since I may also have looked down there - I then looked over and saw Luna’s Amazon quality boots that do not go with that outfit - awful.  Put her in some Dr. martens combat boot - maybe one with the embroidered rose - something to indI ate young retro fashion)….

Ross Moss had been making $700,000 annually until July of 2012.  His contract expired, and the show offered him $400,000 for the 2012-2013 year.  It was a one-year contract, indicating his pay would be cut even further for 2013-2014.  He said, "No thanks," and left.  The legal terminology in his spousal support case was "contract negotiations fell through", lol.  

Presumably, all of the higher-paid actors were offered similar deals when their existing contracts expired in the 2012 era.  I always assumed Flannery said, "No thanks" to the new pay scale as well.

Even JMcC acknowledges one of the many reasons why Eric has never been a likeable character:  Eric not marrying Donna. It's part of why so many are completely indifferent about whether Eric lives or dies. No matter how much they've tried to push this retcon of Eric being the paragon of virtue, class and dignity, the audience has 37 years of Eric neglecting or mistreating the women as the rule. So not marrying Donna is typical Eric. The ultimate irony here is that B&B's characters primary purpose in life is to get married.

If this S/L were given to Brooke, Bill, Ridge, Steffy or Liam, you can bet they'd be rushing to the altar before death.

    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
