Well, the day we knew would arrive is finally here and let me start by once again, saying, poor Javi. 

Why would anyone bring in a young, handsome new character with tons of potential just to pair him with the worst character on the show? The worst character that, after six years, is literally the albatross to end all albatrosses and who pretty much only has like three fans. This is why people get fired lol

And I definitely wasn’t here for Leo crying about all his failed relationships to Alex. 

Btw, people still share drinks in this post-pandemic world? 

I’m actually am liking Chanel/Johnny/Joy now, even though I still think that the way they’re writing Joy and Nancy’s relationship is ridiculous. I really don’t like the overbearing mother/eye rolling, dismissive child trope. Especially in this case because it sometimes makes this storyline feel forced again and it didn’t need to be and still doesn’t. But I’m still glad that they’re continuing to write a mystery as to whether Johnny and Joy had sex. That could lead to something good happening.

It seems like people are liking Javi, but I find him absolutely obnoxious.   I am trying to give the character a chance- I just really haven't found him endearing or funny.  He seems like an entitled brat.  Something about the way he's jealous of Rafe, tried to keep the ring, but is perfectly fine staying at Rafe's house for free without asking Rafe is off putting.  That being said I don't wish Leo on anyone lol.  

I guess it's too early to make a judgement on Javi and it's nice for Gabi to have someone to talk to.  I just am not a fan so far.

Agreed the Nancy/Joy stuff feels odd.  Every return it's like Nancy's regressed more to who she was years ago when she came to town.  Like I said earlier, I don't think Nancy's ever had the strongest character point of view, but this seems especially cliche and lacking depth.

The same things bothered me about Javi, also. Plus. I am one who is not yet 100% sold on NuGabi. I especially did not like her trying to blame EJ for Stefan moving on & out. Also, and this is gonna get boring, I'm afraid. But, Aaron, yesterday, was driving me crazy. Their family structure  makes  no sense. He didn't know their mother is alive. Then, he didn't even know that F'Abby (Cat) is his sister. What in hell is wrong with their family? And, furthermore, did Joy & Johnny have sex? Inquring minds want to know. And, as usual, don't even let me get started on Leo.

If I understood yesterday correctly, Aaron thought both his parents died in the car accident.  He knew Cat, his sister, was alive but she was in a clinic recovering from major injuries.  So the assumption is Cat recovered with multiple surgeries and just didn't reveal herself to Aaron/Felicity and they wouldn't recognize her because she looked different.  At some point Clyde told Mark/Cat that their mother was still alive and that's how they started the Chad plan.  Neither Aaron nor Felicity knew their mother was alive.

We don't know if Joy/Johnny had sex.  The show is keeping it vague.

It was a little confusing.  The show explained it, but there were a lot of gaps and holes in the way they laid the Greene family dynamic out.  I am not sure if it's rewrites, bad writing, backstages issue or all of the above.  I feel like the way the show introduced the Greenes is very different from what actually ended up being their backstory.

Just quoted everything

Tuesday's episode was good!

JPL acting is still horrible.

Javi is so cute but he reminds a lot of Leo.

And yes Javi has some nice dance moves.

I enjoyed the Hernandez scenes as well.

    • Same here.  Anyone who voluntarily left Margo's penthouse set (except to go overseas or to Heaven) was immediately on my blacklist.  lol.

    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
    • The storyline April and Draper are involved in during the summer/autumn of 1979 seems fairly "benign" but soon turns very serious.  April has a VERY intrusive, wealthy mother (Margo Huntington Dorn).  Margo knows that April and Draper (who've recently had a miscarriage and are theoretically never going to be able to conceive another baby) want to buy a house.  Margo hoodwinks them into buying a house they can't afford.  The house is listed at $100,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars).  Margo pays the first $35,000 and leads Draper to believe the asking price of the house is $65,000 instead of $100,000.  If Draper finds out his meddling mother-in-law paid 1/3 of the cost of the home and tricked him, he'll be mad as hell.   Meanwhile, Draper has received a job offer from a prestigious New York law firm.  Margo pulls some strings and has the senior partner in the firm rescind the offer, to keep April in Monticello.  If Draper finds out about THAT, he'll be even angrier with Margo than he will be about the house trickery.  All of that is "bubbling under the surface" in the fall of 1979 but will be the next major story, as everything begins to spiral out of control.   Yep, you've got the Karrs and their very basic middle-class house, the Victorian-themed place where Miles and Nicole live, April and Draper's old craftsman house with the exposed beams, the Madisons & their Mission revival house, and Margo with her 1970s-chic penthouse.  Each of the sets is completely different.  And their budget was like zero, lol.  
    • It felt weird and out of place.  I get. While I agree with those on here that he's gotten better, it's still really bad. I'm not seeing the "good" acting some see...but I'll give him a B for being better than when he first started. There's potential. I'll leave it at that. 
    • It's like watching paint dry at a slow-ass pace. It's bad acting. Entirely. Excellent? With Claybon? Never. Ever.

    • Ah! Good to hear. Isn't it especially odd to think that house fictionally exists not far from the Karrs?  Or, that it was designed non-fictionally by the same person who designed April's place?
    • Good to know I'm not the only one who noticed that. Strange and awkward, and I don't know what they're doing with those fades.   -- Finally, had to laugh at how many Emmys this board passed out today.
