I can't believe I watched the whole episode without a ff.

Jessica my dear you dropped the ball. 

The baby's reaction at the end after seeing Ari was so cute.

EJ reaction to not knowing at the end looked so fake.

I'm bored with Chanel and Johnny. Their ship sailed long time ago.

The baby was enormous, but totally adorable lol.

 

I still don't think JS is that bad.  She did decent today.  I wasn't cringing with any of her choices.  I was a bit worried about GV.  His face was so red when he was screaming at Sloan.

Maybe cause the truth wasn't as dramatic and thus not that explosive that I felt Jessica flat. I thought the scenes between Jessica and Greg picked up in the middle of their scenes.

That's totally fair.  A lot people seem to agree with you about JS too.  Anyway, I do get your point about the scenes not flowing very well, but I still thought they were good.  It was all done quite quickly and I think the scenes could have been better fleshed out over two episodes.

The only time I thought Ron Carlivati was capable of writing good material was his first day as HW at OLTL.  That's the ONLY time I've ever enjoyed anything that man has written.

I thought JS did better as the episode went on, and I kinda like her even though I know she's not the strongest. I don't think she necessarily plays layers, which is both about her being green and the way daytime is shot and written. But this setup did no one any favors. How lame to just... have her admit it to him in their damn studio apartment. I really thought GV was over-the-top at times, too. 

This thing should've come out at the christening or some big party or SOMETHING.

*ANOTHER* DID story!? You have got to be kidding me. What a lazy unimaginative hack. And to get paid good money for such mediocrity.

The only upside is that BB is a good actor.

The actress playing Felicity is adorable, and I like the actor playing her brother. I hope they give them both some nice material to play.

I ran into a LOTD last night, I had jotted it down, about a month ago, and I just had to laugh. "No more secrets - ever." -Sloan to Eric

Yeah, right. 

I am not personally perturbed by another DID story. 

So far I do not care for Felicity but that could be me being slow to warm up to new folk.

It may be perverse but I rather like the fact that Chanel is avoiding Paulina. Anything at all to make these characters even slightly more interesting. Honestly, I don't know many who have bored me as much as I am bored with these people in Salem right now. 

I hate this Kaiser Permanente ad!!!

All things being equal, I prefer a DID story over a long-lost twin, or another latex mask.  And I assume it will be a factor in the Abigail storyline.  Maybe Marlena will find the cure and win a Nobel Prize for Medicine?

My dream scene is a debate between Marlena and Rolf over medical ethics

Ari Zucker and Greg Vaughan continued to kill it today, especially when Nicole gave Eric the chance to say goodbye to Jude. Holly did pretty well too, for that matter. I wonder where they’re all going to go from here, especially since we know how it’s gonna end for Nicole. This is the A storyline on the show right now and it could go in so many different directions. 

I’m not really sure why Maggie can’t clue Sarah and Xander in on her plans for a Konstantin but their scenes were nice. And I really hope that Xander’s attitude about Alex and Theresa and them moving in the mansion is foreshadowing for what’s to come. Xander vs. Alex would be great to see.

As for the rest of today, Rafe coming off like a tyrannical boss was unnecessary. And considering the scene of John and Steve vowing to stick together to take down Clyde and Konstantin, so was the rewrite about Konstantin’s daughter. 

I prefer DID over those too, especially since they wrote that *wink wink* scene of Gabi meeting Everett and saying she had never seen him before in her life. 

But I would preferred it to be a whole big con on Everett’s part, mostly because that would have explained all the continuity errors lol

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By chrisml · Posted

      I've watched more episodes, but I wanted to make one short comment before I made my longer post. Someone on the show loves dressing men in ways where they have plunging necklines and show lots of chest hair. Not complaining but I think Chief Marceau (sp?) and Logan are the only two who have not shown their chest hair at this point. I have now watched episodes 6077 to 6090. I'm up to September 11, 1979. Nancy and Mike have returned from their vacation. Ann Flood is another wonderful presence. She's only had a few scenes, but I already like her. They're worrying about Draper and his lost job offer in New York. The truth is slowly coming out. I can't say that I'm invested all that much. I still don't care all that much about Draper, but he's no longer bellowing and whining so it's all good. He has had some nice scenes with April and there was an uncomfortable confrontation with Margo. Draper and Logan's scenes are where I like him the best. The two actors play well off each other. Also, Draper and Raven have an interesting thing in scenes. I wonder if they hook up at some point. They always give each other weird looks during scenes. Is this foreshadowing? Hmmm. The Raven of it all. MY word Sharon Gabet is amazing. How did she not win the Emmy? Was this going on during the Judith Light time? Gabet owns every scene. Raven and Eliot's scenes crack me up. Gabet and Lois Kibee are giving masterclass acting scenes in their moments together. I never wanted their confrontations to end. Kibbee's Geraldine has discovered Raven doing something she should not be doing and that confrontation was pitch perfect. The later scene with Logan was shocking. He does something that I've rarely seen on soaps. Such good storytelling and acting. I also liked how April and Draper were drawn into the madness.  Paige/Tobias/kidnapping/Steve: This is the one storyline that suffers because I came into the show late. I'm not connecting to it as much although I enjoy it. Steve and his low cut shirt amuse me. Calvin is such a cute and bright presence. I thought they were writing him off, but he's back  so apparently not. Marceau seems to be leaving but I hope not. The actor is wonderful. Deborah has come back in the episode I just started so Frances Fisher is here. I will say the actor playing Tobias is excellent. I think he was on another ABC show I watched but I'm not googling.  Nora/Owen/Eddie/Brian/Paige: After a week of non-stop Nora, the movie storyline has not started full force yet. It's more about Nora's drinking and Brian and Paige's feelings for each other. Nora is becoming more manipulative as she lies to all of them so they will make the movie. Owen revealed Brian's secret which I accidentally guess from the first episode, but I actually don't think it's true. Eliot/Margo: Margo had a fantastic scene with April where April confronted her about the real relationship she has with Eliot. Mario admitted the truth. It's so refreshing when characters are intelligent and honest. It makes their mistakes even more heartbreaking. They're not idiots. Eliot is such a fabulous character. He's an absolute slime and yet he's one of the most compelling characters on the show. So nice to be hooked into a soap opera again.

      Joss can go, permanently; killed off, body bag and all, and never ever return.

      I was under the impression that it is always wrong to post private email unless there is some threat of bodily harm. But I think your doing so brings up an interesting point since it shows that I had known about the illness/disease since the prior April if I am wrong & you are right & my point was to break the news why didn't I post it ages ago? My reply is that my point was never about scoop or breaking news.  Somewhere in this onslaught you've said I posted about some actors having an affair. I have zero idea what or who you're talking about.  You mention a cast member's medical condition which about a dozen people discussed & someone NOT ME began the discussion at least a month before I joined it.  Is everyone who took part in that conversation based on having concern for the actress in trouble or just me? There are definitely things that are not true ... and they are not lies told by me. Probably they are things being misremembered.

      Lol.  I still believe there is a place for Joss on the canvas.  This just isn't it and I am not sure Eden McCoy is the right choice for the role.

      I haven't read it since high school--but it has stuck with me and is a pretty important book (as a kid I did always assumed it was related to the Wells work too

      This would be a weird comment to make about the face of the show if it wasn't damn accurate. In the 90s she was mostly confined to her own orbit with her daughters and Cass, aside from a few stories. Her relationship with Rachel was pretty weird too. A case of tell not show. They seemed to be there for each other at big moments (weddings, funerals, etc.) and proclaim how close they were, but rarely interacted outside of those. I only remember one storyline they had together - the Lucas lookalike - but that was more about their significant others' animosity if I'm remembering correctly. In hindsight, it was pretty strange how little Rachel, Felicia & Donna - all around the same age give or take - had to do with each other for the last decade. The actresses were all top-10 in longevity for the entire show and made it to the finish line, but never meaningfully mixed it up at the end. Even Donna dating Rachel's son didn't lead to many interactions between those 2. I can understand JFP's reasoning for getting rid of Donna, even if I didn't agree with it (she was my favorite of the 3).

      It's called being pro-active.. something that soap operas have failed to do in the last twenty to twenty five years. The Duprees are not a compelling family.. .a lot of telling and not showing.  I'm actually more invested in the non-Dupree characters then the Duprees right now.
