We don't know that they won't have diversity as a part of the new team.

But, in a way I think they do miss the boat on optics all over the place. The visual at Spencer's Memorial. Not having Trina on at all for 3 weeks. White people who could & do have opportunities to offer her condolences, don't. 

So, I definitely think the issue of optics is an issue. But I think it's worse than just optics. Tell my why Laura hasn't offered Trina condolences. I honestly don't think Frank & gang are racists but some stuff looks like they are. Someone told me they thought they are unintentionally racists. Scratching my head there, not sure what that means.

Sam, FTW!

Please register in order to view this content

I like Jason, but Sam was 110% correct when she ripped him a new one today. Her being upset about Danny’s part in Jason’s return was so justified and realistic. As for the Danny/Jake scenes and fight, the acting was a little meh… But I like how messy they are over everything that’s going on right now. 

Dex joining the PCPD seems like another one of those clunky story beats that suddenly changes a character out of nowhere but I don’t hate it. 

And no Trina, you didn’t have to apologize to that trash bag

Believe it, or don't. Nothing you can do about it.

What does it have to do with cleaning up or not cleaning up stories? It's not my favorite idea but it is an entirely new development. I still don't think Dex is long for the canvas and/or the world.

How does drafting Dex make Anna incompetent? She told Dex there's less likelihood Sonny will want to take out a cop, and she's right. Are you watching the show or just posting tweets?

Well, they are doing clean up but it's possible for them to start new things, too. 

And, there's no guarantee that all of the fans are gonna like all of whatever new they introduce. Just because you don't like the idea of Anna putting Sexy Dexy on at the PCPD (which I can certainly see people questioning) doesn't mean you're not gonna like everything new they do. One new story can't be made into a trend. So far they've done Marshall, inherited, and Heather, inherited, and now this. I kinda feel like Anna is hiding him in plain sight & just daring Sonny to touch him. It's certainly different.

To me, it seems a little strange for anyone, let alone for Anna, to recruit a former (?) mob enforcer for the police department - I mean, wouldn't it be the other way around, lol? - but, like @Vee said, I don't think Dex is long for this show, so whatever.  I don't hate it.

    • Well, they usually weren't on the show at the time for long until the late 90's. But yeah, they really deserved a story centered on them, and not through the lens of Reva.
    • Chelsea was doing the absolute most today! Why was she introducing her sister to a woman she doesnt know? That whole scene was embarrassing. Madison needs to stay away from her bc she is too immature
    • Gosh, what a waste with Lunacy. Why have her live with $B, reveal Finn, pardon her, etc What makes this story incredibly hollow is that what Luna is asking isn't unreasonable - to spend time with her cousin father. She's not asking to move in with them. How hard with it be for Finn to throw her a bone by, say, I'll meet you for lunch/coffee once at week at the hospital cafeteria. Lunacy isn't going to hurt Finn. In fact, all her crimes were related to finding her father and it turns out to be someone she's loved her entire life. Instead of course-correcting the nonsense of last summer, Brad somehow found a way to make this worse! That's a skill... Of all the younger actors B&B has cast during the past 5 years, LY has shown the most growth and range. Why get rid of her? 
    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point.
