As of this morning over a million views of the love scene from 2-23. Some of those people will tune in to the show. Some fans of other soaps have already posted that they have tuned in now. It doesn't seem possible that the writers made a "Natalia" with a staunch "Roman Catholic" background could be a coincidence. Feels like an homage. This is the first couple to be worthy of the legacy of GL's Otalia which also had a Natalia with a problem with her Catholicism & being gay. I really think this must have been tweaked.

Wait, what!?  She gave birth to her OUTSIDE??

Ugh, this [!@#$%^&*] show, lol.

For me, the fact that Spinelli's first name is "Damien" says it all.

That is almost as mortifying as the napkin dress they made Genie wear in 2013 for her courthouse insta-wedding to Scott after their entire implausible courtship and reunion took place offscreen.

Actually, no it is worse.

She gave birth IN. A. RAVINE!  I don't even know.  She got cat poop on her vag or something and it all went downhill from there.  Literally.

That's one unflattering dress.  AS should sue.  Unless she likes the Mormon Virgin Bride look

I can admit I have chuckled in the past at some Spinelli/Jason scenes especially the one where Jason comes home from prison and the sign said Welcome HoE... instead of welcome home, but I am not asking for more of it.

Well, I've only seen a clip but it was delightful to have a flashback of Lila. However, I would say that this is a cautionary tale about why wedding gowns should not be passed down from generation to generation with any expectation of brides wearing them!!! I certainly understand why Tracy didn't wear it & I hope to hell that Brook Lynn doesn't either.

Awww I like Blaze. When that whole Linc storyline started...and dragged...I didn't mind her at all. She partly had a vixen vibe, but a good one with Chase and BLQ, but she also reminded me of Adrienne Leon's BLQ. And While I wanted that Linc storyline over with the quickness, I didn't want her to go because I thought she had potential.

 

So I was happy with how they slowly started with her and Kristina. I think you know how often I wanted more stories for Kristina because she at this point is the only child of Sonny who has potential to drive some story at this point AND be interesting. And I felt right up until recently...hmmm since Chris and Dan been back now that I think about that...She and Kristina was a nice B plot. Then...they vanished. So long gone that I completely forgot that Blaze wasn't out. 

 

But I think you know I love me some fringe characters. Speaking of...is Ms. Wu going to turn up dead in light of whoever is taking out mob bosses?

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

    • Maeve makes a few sporadic appearances, but returns full-time the next spring/summer. She's back in time to see Bill and Michelle graduate, although she skulks around town and wasn't going to tell anyone she was alive.
    • Aww, yeah it's very heartbreaking and I mostly enjoyed the Nola/Vanessa scenes because they finally let their walls down and came together in a beautiful moment. So Nola was at the hospital already and bumped into Vanessa, who had MRI papers that fell out of her hand and Nola went down to pick them up and asked her what was going on. Later, Vanessa confided in her about her disease. Then, Nola told Zachary on the beach (he prodded her and already alluded to knowing something was going on with Van), and then Vanessa found out she told him and got a little upset. Now, however, Nola is strangely absent while everyone is mourning her death. I'm curious if Nola will actually tell people about her MRI results. I would assume so. Only Nola, Rick, Roger and Zachary know anything, although there is the MRI results letter from the mail that everyone has missed seeing at home. I'm sure it'll all come out at some point. But... I just saw the next episode and the opening already cut Vanessa out and added Dahlia and Zachary. I guess Maeve is gone for a long time

       That will break my heart seeing the town continue to mourn her and assume she's dead. I can't wait to see her return though, and I have to imagine feelings will be torn between loving that she's alive and being very angry she did all of this. While I hate what Vanessa is doing, I'm happy to hear it's not totally against her character. I think you're right, had Henry still been around, she wouldn't put him through this. I'm still surprised she is with Bill, though. I get her feelings on Matt, because she wants him to move on, but still very heartbreaking. I'm glad this was Maeve's choice to have a break vs. being fired.    Interesting, so I'm curious to see who they eventually pair Phillip with. They're flirting with a Phillip/Annie pairing, but I'm not sure if they'll go that route with the Jeva drama, her growing pill addiction, and Rick's past with her.  Ugh, yeah I'm so sad to see Bridget do a total 180 in the last couple weeks. She has always been a strong character from what I've seen, but now she's just bending over backwards to get Hart to love her and it reeks of desperation. Yeah, sure, this new Hart is eye candy, but I'm already tired of seeing Hart/Dinah have sex all over Springfield and the Cayman Islands haha.
    • Yes.  I remember them together during the early summer of 1986.  They didn't share scenes again for 30 years until 2017 because Carrie wasn't on the show when Anna returned during Sydney's kidnapping.
    • I can see Kim being that way. Well, Kyle didn't have to say yes. LOL. The suicide attempt feels plot-driven. I don't know if even Long could've made it work. She'd spent so much time trying to make Reva and Kyle into a couple, it feels odd to just have them give up. Not to mention how odd it is to have Maeve agree to marry him. Re Charita---surely they could've at least tried  finding clips with who was still there. Maybe they wouldn't have been "big" moments, but surely she'd interacted with Ross, Vanessa, and Henry. Vanessa had dated Ed, FCOL. But Mo and Rick were there---surely they could've bothered to find some clips of her with them (and they did interact a fair amount) and used them. And with Ed they could've found some shot of her talking to him and just not cut to whoever was playing Ed in the clip. That to me is what feels lazy---they had more than a year to figure it out, and they went with a bunch of photos. If you were sort of centering it on Rick anyway---then find clips with them and use 'em.
    • I definitely think it's time to write off Nina for good. I think her killing Drew might actually be a good idea. She could completely lose it after losing both Sasha and Willow and she ends up murdering Drew and eventually she gets caught and sent away to prison for a long time. 
    • I hope it's okay to post this here(as in from DC)  
    • Quick question - did Christie and Leann share any scenes together in the '80s before Leann left the show?
    • This is the perfect way to encapsulate the situation. So many morally-reprehensible stories were foisted on the show and its characters in ATWT's dwindling years. Rape should never be used as a cheap plot device or in a way that degrades the victim. Jack's sexual assault was another heinous example of how nasty the the show's tone had become. The fact that people like Hogan Sheffer, Ron Carlivati, Jean Passanante, Charles Pratt, Dena Higley, etc., somehow end up winning awards for their material, decimates the credibility and integrity of the awards, IMHO. Soaps used to have a solid moral core and did not originally wallow in the gutter, rolling around in filth and depravity just to be cool, hip, campy, or whatever else modern-day PTB aim for. Thank you. Cruelty, degradation and misogyny are not components which lend themselves to successful soaps, which have always been predicated on warmth, family bonds, and providing a comforting haven for their audience. The genre has been crippled because the cynical and ignorant executives in charge understand neither the shows nor what the audience wants to see.
