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!

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!)

    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.

    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  Also, did Reva ever sleep with Phillip? They always had some "closeness" thing, but I don't know if they ever actually did the deed. If they did, then Reva's the clear winner, with TWO families covered, lol!  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.
