Steffy's reaction is absurd. Even more absurd than Thomas leaving for Paris, because Hope was not ready to say Yes. 

I mean... Finn was honest for once with her and that's her reaction? Good way to make your man lie to you from now on... which is sure going to lead to a fairytale - not.

I wish they had cast RB as Taylor's younger sister since B&B thrives on family, um, connections.

KKL and AN continued to kill it this week. KKL even brought out the tears. The writing for those scenes has been unusually good. I loved Brooke persistence - she never rationalized or excused Hope's behavior. It really rang true that Brooke doesn't want Hope to follow her path.

If Brooke refuses to defend Hope to Steffy, I'll be as shocked as Steffy and Taylor! I hope they go that route because it would be fresh take on the very tired Forrester v Logan drama.

OK. I'll be the first one to say it. I am just fresh from my viewing and let me tell you this. Rebecca's chemistry is with KKL. I was very surprised, but there WAS venom coming from both sides and that's a good sign. And the way KKL was looking at her, I loved it. KKL is a chemistry magnet, so that does really help... It's still not real Taylor, but at least it will be fun watching the confrontations between these two ladies. 

 

P.S And from the looks of it - this Taylor and Brooke will never be friends. And I'm kinda here for it.

I will say with a lot of shame in my heart, I will be looking forward to tomorrow. I kinda like the stern sinister Rebecca Taylor, it's about time someone rocks Brooke's life and makes her feel miserable! 

P.S 2 - Rebecca, Taylor or not Taylor, was kinda amazing today. I got goosebumps at times. I am going to love this girl.

Considering this was RB's like 4th or 5th episode, she really kicked butt.

RB owned those scenes like she'd been there for years. Yeah, it's going to take me a long time to accept her as *Taylor*, but if keeps rockin' scenes like today, she's a welcome addition.

Compare RB's performance to those really bad RJ/Luna scenes. Both actors were so off, it was painful.

Love, love, love Steffy witnessing that kiss! I thought she was going to throw-up right there. Guess what, Steffy? Luna is part of your perfect family.

I’m wondering now where is this Luna thing is going with Steffy being the one to see them kiss for a second time…Steffy says she is leaving town, wonder if Luna kidnaps her something.

I too liked RB’s performance as well today although I need to see more of this and where it goes before I can accept her as Taylor 3.0

I think she and KKL have potential to elevate the horrible scripts to a point where the show is watchable and dynamic again. At least I hope so. They have the chemistry! It works between them. Maybe that's why Bradley Bell decided to pick her. Still wrong though, but at least something works in this whole mess.

Lol, this is most definitely not what Thudster has planned but I just wondered if Steffys reaction to Luna/Bill was actual disgust or if she’s just measuring the “competition” of one of her old flames!

    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with. 
    • How did this come to be?

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.
