I wonder if that woman who's run off the road is Andre's mother and Ted's sister? I remember the early description of both of Andre's parents being killed in an accident and then he inherits a double fortune as a result. Of course, this means a rewrite would've had to occurred since this woman was in the vehicle by herself and is not dead. I don't know.

I splendidly enjoyed that promo. A lot of exciting shots! This should be a fun watch. Everything looks solid. 

Since Bill and Hayley are getting married so early in the story I take it they have been dating for a while. Or is it a business arrangement? Dani’s reactions imply the divorce womb is fresh. 

I am very intrigued by what Bill said at the door. And will Vernon be a Victor Newman or Tom Horton?! 

Dani must be the showy role. Hmm…

On a superficial note, the men are all FINE!

Has there been any info yet on whether BTG will be available on platforms/networks outside the US? Really hoping it's available internationally from the start, there's definitely an audience out there.

I kind of did the same thing and, thus far, a lot of personalities match what the breakdowns said. It's nice to see those breakdowns be developed properly.

Like you, I've been slightly lukewarm on Karla Mosley, although, that's also due to the fact I wasn't a fan of her character on Bold, but seeing her as Dani you can tell she has sunk her teeth to the gums into the material, and isn't letting go. Seeing her semi "broken" while making herself up, clearly preparing to go to Bill's office and make herself known, it's beautiful. I'm actually excited to see Daphnée Duplaix, as I wasn't a watcher of Passions or One Life, and I've always heard positive things about her and how she's been so ignored in daytime, so that's where I'm most excited.

I applaud any white person who admits that they don't like TP's stuff, instead of pretending that they do, because they're afraid of what the NAACP will do to them.

If you're going to represent Black people, or ANY people, then REPRESENT.  Don't just reinforce stereotypes.  Instead, shatter those stereotypes into so many pieces, so that all the king's horses and all the king's men will NEVER put Sambo or Topsy back together again.

I think that's what MVJ is doing there with BTG.  She's saying, in effect, that white folks do not own the rights or the patent to being messy.  As long as you've got money, you've got problems!

Now, would I have developed BTG in the same way?  No, I wouldn't've, because I was practically weaned on Douglas Marland and Agnes Nixon's storytelling; so, I like to follow stories about different socioeconomic classes.

But I respect what MVJ is attempting to do, I think it's long past time for someone to do it, and I wish her nothing but the best.  (Follow that rainbow, 'Chele!)

There do appear to be various socioeconomic strata on BTG, starting with

    • Yeah. I wasn't feeling it either. If it was meant to be a chem test, it didn't work. I don't think so. Because I think Neil and Liz moved into that house after Stefano "died", and Neil lived there until he went to go see his patients and never came back

    • Canada aired a repeat today Tues. Nov. 18. So after being a day ahead for the past week, they will now be back in sync with U.S.
    • I was really starting to enjoy it, but after Anspach, Shelton and Keane left, it got a bit blah to watch. Jane Russell was great as Rose, Buddy Ebsen as Toat was interesting as well.  If a second season were in the cards, I would have signed  Karen Carlson on to a contract and cast a couple more women as regulars. The cowboy aspect could continue. Sam Elliott, as always, was fantastic,  The camaraderie between Roy and Quisto was really good as well. Cybill... she was sex on a stick and unapologetic.   Poor Robin Wright barely lasted five minutes, though, before being raped and murdered.
    • I love it that we've gone from daylight to dark -- Luna's even returned to work -- but Steffy is still sitting next to shirtless Finn on the sofa.

    • Is the current DiMera mansion the same mansion Stefano moved into around 1983?  I remember that house was out near a lake, and not far from Doug Williams' night club.  In fact, there was a tunnel connecting Doug's Place to the DiMera mansion.  If it supposed to be the same house, I'm fairly sure it is not the same set.  But I'm aware sometimes soap opera sets change without any explanation   
    • Amazing work @slick jones I remember watching and enjoying Yellow Rose but losing interest once they went to self contained episodes, Interestingly that's the opposite of what Dallas, KL and FC did. So maybe YR should have been more episodic at first and then go to a fully fledged serial. But really the timeslot was the problem -Sat @10 was not the spot for a serial. And Rounders turned out to be a poor lead in. Maybe 9-11 Tues following A Team would have helped.  
    • LOL!!! He looks like he is reacting as if Luna just passed bad gas or something. 
    • Doug Marland came on board shortly before Gloria Monty, I believe. Jackie Smith was in charge of ABC daytime at that point. All of the characters in place were not his creations. Alan was created by Irving and Tex Ellman who wrote the hurricane story a few months before and brought in Alan, Scotty, David Hamilton, Dorrie and Lisa/Lana. His first character was  Bobbie in Jan 78. Apart from wrapping up the Lan/Lisa story he pretty much kept all the stories going just adding new elements.
    • She is 29... she's inching closer, and we know how important age is on soaps.

    • When I saw that look on Will's face, I thought, "Yeah, there's no one on set giving direction to Crew Morrow. There's no one giving notes." His dad Josh was green when he started, but not this green.
