A deadbeat asking advice from another deadbeat. Just as annoying when Sonny was giving him advice. And Lucky immediately just happy to dip out on his son after having one conversation with him, is just bull. Awful.

Speaking of annoying and Sonny. This man just killed a man, and his daughter’s mother is in jail for it currently, I assume a few weeks ago in soap time and I’m supposed to enjoy him sitting around making googly eyes at the bigot

Reading all these comments and it fascinates me. I don’t want to watch perfect people, that’s boring and not true to what soaps are about. Now I question this production team in pulling off anything remotely about character. But I think it is way more in character for the Lucky that exists right now to want to run.

This was the teen who was so sure he would never be anything like his parents after he learned about the rape. Especially his dad. The fact that he has been running away from his family and his feelings for a decade could make for compelling watching. He grew up and made his own mistakes that he must contend with. This isn’t Tony Geary, JJ doesn’t seem the type to relish in Lucky not striving to be a better person like Tony wanted with Luke.

Nothing we have seen so far even remotely compares to what was happening then. He was right, the entire show was mired in misery. They had the affair storyline, his horrible verbal attacks on Liz, the Irish story that also led to him falling in love with someone that was killed, Jake’s death. That was a lot in two years. He never said he wanted Lucky to be perfect, he just didn’t want to embody misery 3 days a week for another two years and he wanted the show to rebuild Liz and Lucky. But that’s not what Guza was doing at that point, and by all accounts JFP was fine with Becky being written out until the backlash.

I think you're thinking of Nurse Deanna, whose name I always remembered because it was like Deanna Troi on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Then I recently found out Nurse Deanna's last name is supposed to be Sirtis - as in Marina Sirtis who played Troi - so guess I'm not the only one who made the TNG connection lol.

So maybe that'll help you remember

Actually come to think of it, I wonder what Genie Francis makes of this lol

Again, missing the drama because they don’t want it too complicated between characters. Why hasn’t Jason really expressed any anger about Carly immediately compromising herself after he missed all that time protecting her the last time? I mean real, screaming anger.

I will give Guza some credit here- his team would never ignore something like that, because they loved pitting the titans against each other.

    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83. 
    • If the show ever chooses to show any flashbacks of major Ted scenes, the Ted/Eva, Ted/Kat, and Ted/Nicole scenes would need to be re-filmed with nuTed. Since there have been hardly any Ted/Martin scenes with the CurrentTed, they have avoided the difficulty of doing recreated flashbacks with nuTed for scenes with Martin.  The only one would be Martin punching Ted after the anniversary reveal (unless there's something in the next few episodes). I agree with other posters that the fact that we barely saw CurrentTed and Martin interact, makes it less impactful to viewers to see Martin's outrage at the reveal. 
    • This makes me think of that famous quote from COOL HAND LUKE,  "What we've got here is failure to communicate." I did not bring up "apparently" to try to get across either truth or validity, but doubt. If I had been sure, I would have said something entirely different. But, I'm not trying to argue, I hear you & I will comply. Besides that, I will endeavor to word things differently. I am never against trying to improve. 
    • That’s been my main issue with his response. It didn’t feel that earned by what came before. Definitely needed to see more of the Richardsons as a full family unit prior to all of this.
    • Bingo! I thought the exact same thing. Martin's anger feels so out of place, because we've hardly seen him interact with his parents. Vernon and him have more of a father/son relationship and we've seen their dynamic more fully play out. While obviously Ted and Marton are father and son, it felt a bit empty because we haven't really seen them bond or truly connect in any scenes.
    • Leslie inferred over 20 years ago, so Eva and Kat are over 20 at least 
    • As it happens, 40 years ago this week, ABC and CBS revealed their 1985-86 fall schedules. NBC revealed theirs the week before. ABC's would end up changing. The original plan for Tuesdays was to have Diff'rent Strokes lead the night, with He's the Mayor at 8:30, followed by Who's the Boss at 9, Growing Pains at 9:30, and Moonlighting at 10. There was some surprise over MacGruder & Loud not getting renewed, but it was considered part of Aaron Spelling's declining influence at the network. Yes, Dynasty was still a hit (for a while longer), but Aaron's shows steadily took up less and less of the schedule. Fall 1984: Seven hours, five of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, Glitter, Matt Houston, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Finder of Lost Loves; MacGruder & Loud aired at midseason, by which time Glitter was gone.). Fall 1985: Five hours, two of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Hollywood Beat, The Love Boat). Fall 1986: Three-and-a-half hours, a half-hour of which was new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Life With Lucy). Fall 1987: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and Hotel; HeartBeat premiered at midseason). Fall-winter 1988: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and HeartBeat). This led to Variety's infamous shady headline in spring 1989: "Aaron's Dynasty Over"
