I have to agree about the whole radiation story.  They made a weekly promo about it and Deidre Hall gasped, "Paulina's radioactive" in the most dramatic way and everyone's healthy, Chanel was missing for an hour or two and got a sprained ankle, and it's all fine and good.  Even Julie being there at the cabin was weird.  She served no real purpose.  The entire thing could have been done without her.  The most pointless plot point ever and that's saying a lot on Days.

@j swiftI am pretty sure Ava was only the manager of the Bistro.  She didn't own any part of it.

Too soon to judge about new teen character Sophia, but I’m so glad that Holly and Tate are gonna have friends. That was the one thing that their storyline was missing. I just hope it’s taken seriously and not written like a big joke. 

The Eric/Sloan fight was good too. And even though Sloan didn’t mean it, I’m glad she brought up Eric not having a job. They should run with that somehow. It could play into the storyline about Baby Jude and make it even messier.

And I’m glad that they remembered the Alex/Kristen “relationship” I still don’t ship them but I do ship Kristen finally getting over Brady for good. That obsession is literally handcuffing her. And Brady too, actually.

It's been awhile since I have been in high school clearly, but how can Holly wear half a top to class?  Nicole was okay with that outfit?  Her entire stomach was showing.  You'd immediately get sent to the office and have to wear your gym shirt if you showed up to school like that and I just went to a regular public high school in this century lol.  Maybe times have changed.  I like Sophia so far, but I hate when the sidekick is played as the slightly dumb one like Mimi and that's how she felt in this episode.

Oh, Eric. He thinks Sloan has a gambling addiction.  Lol.  Shopping addiction, substance abuse, an affair, and honestly blackmail are places I would go first before even considering GAMBLING!  I honestly can see why Sloan thinking she doctored the numbers and Eric wouldn't notice.  And, seriously, at the end of the day, is it that bad Sloan tried to help Eric get a job?  He isn't making money.  While I might be a bit peeved my significant other called a friend on my behalf the intentions aren't bad. 

And, uh, is Alex making reference to Dickens work with his Konstantin reference?  He knows that and expects Theresa to know that too?  Like, neither of seem that well read.  And Theresa there's a gym practically in your living room so it's funny she's going to an actual gym.

In the name of gender equatable progress, many schools have dropped their dress code policies because they were mostly coded toward girls, and often enforced by men.  That being said, Holly is dressed by a costume department who would be wise to make better choices than try to exploit the body of a character who is meant to be underage.

I mean, she looked great and it was a cute outfit, but in all interest of Nicole trying to reign Holly in for bad behavior, I can't see any mother being okay with that outfit.  It's just a minor thing and wardrobe often lacks to make sense.  But also Tate and Holly are just re-starting the school year in late April, also makes 0 sense for them to complete the year lol.  With Tate being pulled out of boarding school and in rehab and Holly being in a coma for months that seems implausible.

    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
