I dunno, I kinda give her props for refusing to allow age to slow her down, lol? 

I also think she was smart to hold onto her flight attendant job even after Esther, um, took off (sorry, lol).  Just as Marla Gibbs was smart to hold onto her gig taking reservations for another airline until she was sure "The Jeffersons" wasn't in danger of getting yanked off the air too quickly. 

The industry is so damn fickle.  You never know how long your job will last, or whether another one is coming, so if you have a steady gig (like flight attendant) that doesn't interfere with the acting or writing jobs, by all means, hold onto it for as long as you can!  I've always said that if I ever broke into the biz, I'd still keep a side gig, just in case.

I'm still LMAO at yesterday's show. Not only did we get more OCD offscreen -- ALL of it -- but we were treated to Chelsea wheeling her luggage from place to place.

First she dragged it into Adam's suite. Then we got to watch her wheel it around Crimson Lights. Hilarious!

Maybe if the story wasn't so bad I wouldn't notice this stuff.

Just saw this.  Christopher Cousins' character on One Life to Live
https://www.oocities.org/historypg/oltl1991.html


Tina devised another one of her patented, destined-to-fail plans. She was going to write a book about the trials and tribulations of the Lord/Buchanan families. Publisher Hudson King (Christopher Cousins) offered her a stunning salary for the work and Tina began spending a lot of time with him in his apartment in New York. But Hudson wasn't really Hudson - he was a con artist by the name of Cain Rogan. When Cord discovered the truth, he had a tough time convincing Tina of it. They staged a scene to smoke Hudson out. Cord would play the jealous husband and barge in on Tina and Hudson; when he saw what they were doing, he would pull out a gun in fury and fire a blank at Tina, who would then play dead. The ruse worked: Cord "shot" Tina and then threatened to kill Hudson, who hurriedly admitted he was not Hudson after all. Hudson was carted off to jail (though he was never actually sent there),while Cord had saved Tina from herself yet again.

(further down the same link)

Megan bolted town and ended up in Atlantic City, where she pledged that the lupus wouldn't run her life. She then proceeded to get drunk and have the time of her life in the casino. It was here she ran into a man by the name of Heinrich Kaiser (Christopher Cousins), a German filmmaker who instantly took to Megan and later followed her home to Llanview. Soon after, Tina and Heinrich met in the lobby of the Palace Hotel and the secret was out: Heinrich was really Hudson King - the publisher who tried to profit off Tina's story months ago. And not only that - but Hudson King wasn't even his real name - it was Humberto Kaldaron, and he was a Spanish businessman. (Of course, it was later revealed that his name was Cain Rogan, and he was nothing more than a clever con-artist). Megan felt betrayed, but as her condition continued to worsen, she could do little more than pray for Jake's safe return and spend as much time as possible with Andrew.

For God's sake, would somebody PLEASE fire Josh Griffith and then stipulate to Steven Kent that he can never be hired again under any circumstances whatsoever?  Please??

Thanks, @janea4old.  I think, lol.

This has got to be the worst DID storyline in the history of daytime. Didn't Griffith do ANY research?  Doesn't he know a mental health counselor who could have given him at least a slight insight into the reality of DID?   Couldn't he have read a book, or at least done an internet search?  There is nothing even slightly believable (much less realistic) about this plot -- from beginning to end.  Griffith has used a serious mental illness to create a farce.  He'd never get by with doing this with any other serious illness.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      Just thinking how the Ruth/Leticia guest spot really cemented how Days had changed. Stunt casting with a campy/comedy character in a 'wacky' storyline was something that a few years previously would have been completely out of place on Days (and most other soaps for that matter).

      I am interested to see how they handle Leslie/Dana down the road. If she continues in this path, it would be unrealistic to have her around. Like other shows have done this with a 'villian' character and ended up with people looking stupid putting up with someone they detest. Another thought-could they be building up to a murder story? Maybe Les/Dan will be left in a coma and we will have a whodunit with several characters as suspect. It would also be a chance to redeem her I wonder how long the show will go w/o resorting to soap cliche stories-twins,switched at birth, murder mystery, long lost child etc

      Yeah, Martin really did make me laugh when him and Smitty jumped up to drag Leslie out. I am interested in seeing how this fallout will impact his storyline as well. Especially since he is so protective regarding his family/family's image. I am interested in seeing how he will interact with Eva for the time being, they did have a warmer interaction earlier on once they met. But he seems to have doubts about her possibly being Ted's right now. I wonder how long it might take for him to come around with her. I could see the younger generation warming up to her quicker than the older ones. Though of course I think there will be anger/tension for a while regarding the reveal and her role in it. Perhaps Naomi/Chelsea will ease up on Eva first then eventually Martin/Kat might down the line. I really do love Nicole. I'm glad that DD is playing her. She really is the heart of the family and also agree the show. She is so easy to root for and I'm looking forward to seeing how things work out for her. I am enjoying the development of most of the characters on this show. I enjoy most of them including Bill with his trifling self lol. I do feel that Bill's love for his daughters is genuine and that gives him some depth. A few of the characters I don't care for that much (like Bill, Ashley, Vanessa). I wasn't too big on Andre at first, but I am warming up more to him as the actor is settling into the role. I like most of the characters on this show. Also, I am interested in seeing what happens if Eva indeed goes and lives with the new doctor that was introduced. I could see this adding another layer to her story, maybe she will become more vixen-ish, on what type of relationship they end up having. And/or maybe she will end up becoming more hardened as she deals with being an outcast, especially if she falls out with Leslie as well. I think that AM will do a good job of showcasing the different layers of this character as she deals with the fallout of the affair/paternity reveal.

      One thing I thought about is if Hayley will have a reaction to Bill threatening to kidnap and sell a baby. That's another level of viciousness and with her just having thought she was pregnant it might make her feel some type of way.
