I

I agree. MM has been for the most part better since his return. But he still has his moments as I sit here and play catch-up. And he definitely gets on fire when he's with AL and ZS.

 

Well I am only ahead because I fell sick and had time. And lord has it been a chore. Ugh. Again. Happy for your oncoming break though.

Well if JG is going to do anything, it is going to be be sure that the Abbotts are featured. For good or for bad.

 

I'll give credit where credit is due. It is a good idea to deal with the aftereffects of Jack and Diane's schemes. But I have always been annoyed at how the start of Kyle/Diane mess because it was sooooo contrived. And now here comes Kyle feeling a way because Diane has not moved out of the office yet. BOY, BYE. I was like Diane. It felt like they were right back to where they started. 

 

We know I could care less about Billy so whatever with his scenes with Jack. I did like the use of the Abbott dining room with Jack and Traci and their talk. And those Dina flashbacks were EVERYTHING. I teared up. It made me wonder if I will ever sit down and watch the Dina death scenes given how triggered they would make me given my own relationship with my mother. But still...good scenes.

 

Can I just say that I love HK's auburn hair? 

 

Esther and Diane? Unexpected. But I do love the increased use of Esther as of late. And this was a frest take.

 

And Audra/Sally will always be love. 

 

 

I've been meaning to comment on this. 

 

For me, it is too early to tell. I definitely feel there has been a shift. MTS already had an immediate upgrade before the new designer showed up. And that has definitely gone warp speed. I don't think Nikki has had anything on that I haven't loved. She's turned into such a clotheshorse. 

 

I feel people are now dressing more for what the weather should be in Genoa City. Outside of Phyllis of course. But even she's been dressing strong. 

 

It has just been little things though that has gotten my interest. Sharon FINALLY with something different done to her hair. Or Nick in the short sleeve winter-y shirt which I felt was unusual for him. Different, but not bad.

Oh my God yes. I did not get to see a lot of Marla Adams's run as Dina...I only got to see the full scene of her first appearing to John a few months ago...but she always had me spellbound when I saw her. I wished they could have kept her and Dina could have been that grande dame that Katherine used to be.

 

Those flashbacks of her and Jack were so well done. And it told such a tale. And when she turned to Jack and told him the story behind the ornament to show she remembered it like he did...just *sighs* Just well done.

FINALLY!!!

 

I'm talking about Sharon's session with Alan. So...not only was Heather STILL alive before Sharon blacked out, but Sharon remembered a REAL hand on her shoulder. And the attack/murder happened as Sharon was blacking out on the couch. So yay for Sharon NOT killing Heather. And now she has that heroine fire in her. GOOD. 

 

And Nate's brother has officially been found. I was happy to hear it. And I guess it was nice to play the beat of Amy not being sure if she wanted to go. Still...I was annoyed that it felt like they were dragging it out though. I almost thought that Amy might be setting up Nate for something because why would she not go with him on the plane since she would be the only person Nate's brother would recognize. 

 

Giggly Heffa can stay a C plot. lol. Happy to see Daniel though. 

 

This episode had meat to it, and it felt like momentum MIGHT be about to pick up again. 

 

Side-note...another hairstyle for SC and she was looking pure heroine.

      That was such a dark story. I never liked Swamp girl after that. And then the dating your cousin thing. I think wasn’t Max in a triangle with two of his cousins?

      Thank you, @j swift.  I'm probably more sympathetic to Draper Scott than most audience members are -- even though I'm absolutely CRAZY about Ann Williams & her bizarre Margo Huntington character

      The more I watch these episodes -- and I've watched several of them a zillion times, I'm ashamed to admit -- you realize there's a WHOLE lot of passive-aggressive hostility brewing inside Margo Huntington about Draper.  She wants to take April AWAY from him and recreate the childhood that she never got to experience with April, because of the adoption 25 years ago.  Draper has sense enough to realize how heartless and vindictive Margo really is about other people's lives and their feelings, but he bites his tongue rather than poison his wife's mind about how horrible her mother really is.  And I admire him for that.  He's a sweet boy.

      Unfortunately, as the 90s wore on, Felicia started wearing as many gray and neutral tones as Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan could produce, and the shoulder pads deflated to a drop sleeve.

      I think Dante is reacting how most parents would react.

      5-2   Lord... At least the week started off well...I think. I don't know where to start.   Oh, yes, I do. It was mostly background noise to me. There was nothing to the majority of the characters that were on. Meaning, it was mostly characters that I didn't care for or I've gotten accustomed to just FF-ing through. Or just zoning out. Even the possibility that Michael and Lauren might have a story was just meh simply because we have done this dance before and Lauren was coming across like Michael was working for Sonny on GH the mob.   The biggest thing I really took away from last week was that the new costumer designer has stepped up her game again. It didn't bother me at all, but I wish there was some drama with this fashion. I liked Claire's outfit, LOVE Nikki's. And I continue to like brighter colors on Nick though I hated those pants. And I could go on about the clothes misses like Billy in that short sleeeve, but I digress.   The only things that held my interest...   THE SICKENING OF COLE. As soon as he started to cough, I went uh oh. I'm happy to see he might be getting a story. And I guess it shows how much history I have with the character that I care. But still...ugh.   ALL THINGS AUDRA. I admit that I was taken aback to see Victor with her at Crimson Lights. When was the last time he was there? I want to say recently with Kyle/Claire, but otherwise I still found the scene taking me aback. But I like her being soft with Kyle who actually came across annoyingly flirty for someone that hates Audra. I actually can't wait for him to eat crow. And since Audra is now being used to drive a wedge between Kyle and Claire, I have to talk about...   SUMMER'S EXIT. Mmmm...mixed feelings. It don't seem half as bad as others appear to see it. Yes, if I didn't have the context, it still seem odd that her part in the Kyle/Claire drama was barely touched on. And she interacted with everyone I felt she should interact with. But in the overall context...I still didn't mind the exit. Though it was abrupt.    I did like hearing that Noah and Allie are still together. And don't get me started on the offscreen Mariah drama.

      I'm sure old Reva/Josh fans saw the writing on the wall--and this was their pattern. They (or usually Josh) was so angry that they'd spend months yelling at each other, and then "boom", they were macking up on each other, regardless of who else they were entangled with. (This is the couple who slept together under HB's roof while Reva was married to him, after all.) "Always". *gag me*

      I don't think we've seen the last of Erica Kane. That's something I will continue believing in.

      You are the best!!!! That is a remarkable talent, to not just summarize, but contextualize Draper's dilemma!  It is delightful to be able to think of that situation in a new way. - Thank you

          I was pondering Lee Godart's accent, because it was so dreamy.  It made me think he would've been perfectly cast as Victor Newman's brother on Y&R.  American's have a hard time distinguishing European accents.  And, good news, before I hit reply, I went and confirmed the actor is still alive.

      Has anyone even told Gio that Sonny once shot Dante?

      B&B: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By skiman12082004 · Posted

      There are so many missed opportunities and story beats that could be played out on B&B. Hope was finally able to successfully move on from Liam, with Thomas, and what does Brad Bell do, he ruins it. Hope & Thomas, baggage and all, were really good together. Why Thomas is off the canvas is mind boggling, yet we have a terrible and completely useless character in Daphne still there, please make it make sense. I think Rick is needed on the show too. Have him come back and hook up with Taylor again. That would create some really good drama and cause Ridge & Brooke's heads to explode.  And for God's sake just recast RJ and bring Jack to the show as an adult to rip Brooke a new one for basically ignoring him all these years. But yeah, just my opinion
