Coming into January...

 

Well, I gotta give credit where credit is due to Casting. That NuEmma does favor the OldEmma in the face and hair. Well done!! That said...Emma coming back a bad girl? Oooo.

 

Watching the Ava story play out all I can say is WTF!!!! WHO????????? There aren't any Cassadines alive who could contest the divorce settlement. I mean is there anyone except Nik (who's in jail), Alexis (who didn't care less), and Valentin (who would do it as a way to keep his character on the canvas good one Frank out of spite). Did I miss a living Cassadine? Is Stefan finally coming back? I mean...*shrugs* And even if I didn't have that reaction...Ava has been a successful art gallery owner for a decade now. Ava broke just rings all kinds of false. Unless they need her in a scheme OR a way to get Ava/Ric to come together plot-wise...unneeded since they were coming together organically. 

 

Speaking of organically... @Antoyne...yeah that salon set has been used before. And YES, LOVED Ric riding to Liz's rescue. That lawyer was irking me so I love Ric giving it to her. But I loved that Sam's death so far has been a Liz story and appears to continue to be so. 

 

Ugh!!! How I glared seeing JS's face in the opening with Val back. FV made sure to put that face up with the quickness, didn't he? And all this is the first fumble in Lulu's storyline for me. My bad. Second because while I've loved all of her interactions with Tracy, just ONE (okay two) scenes of her with her actual mother and brother?  Well, I got it so I loved it, but ugh. And yay at Brennan sending a gunman though does that mean that Val WAS the head of Pikeman?

 

Is Lucas about to get a storyline? Because I loved him reading Willow and Drew down and that someone played the beat of his connection to Wiley. 

 

Sonny having a heart attack. Well...

 

Okay than that, the designer keeps getting Isaiah less clothed and I don't mind at all.

This is where Holly staying around longer might have made sense. If Holly encouraged her to get Q money, Sasha may have been reminded of why she distanced herself from Holly and also convince her to distance herself from Michael.

You join just hordes of fans who are asking, "Where the frack is all the money that Ava had on her own, before the blasted Cassadine divorce settlement?!"

I would add, though, that a few things that Marty said would seem to be of importance. First, he said that Nik misused some Cassadine money that he shouldn't have had access to in the first place. Then he mentioned these Greek guys who seemed to be some kind of leadership over the Cassadine inheritance. Last he reminded us that the Cassadines do not give a flip about eldest living son, which is why Nik is not he & now suddenly Ace is. (That part is sheer GH. IRL there is no way that would happen.)

We did see Brennan tell Colette, "You know what to do." But somehow I still resist. I wondered if Colette was working on her own, outside of orders. I have to admit though that this could be only because I do not like Colette. 

And, the rest, I agree.

I suppose this explains why Cameron is out there pushing them as a supercouple. No matter much a lot of fans hate Drew, it's hard to imagine the show giving up on him. I suppose Cameron briefly posing bare-assed on Instagram was also a way to try to coax some new fans.

Yep. Too vague. When the audience knows the history. Nice try though, but sloppy writing. Per usual. 

Sounds like the Peter August situation all over again. Just minus the rewrote that the audience did not like in the first place.

Metaphorically at least, this is what we as soap fans are stuck with. However, it wasn't always like this. I remember when dialogue not only made sense but it answered questions that the audience needed to know about. 

We've got a fracking lot of things to be hollering about!!! Drew is at least near the vicinity of #1 thing to holler about. I mean, GMAB, this man said that Drillow will be the new Luke & Laura. I basically fell out of my chair, landed on the floor, rolled around laughing so hard till I couldn't catch my breath. Who knew he is going for The Drew WhateverHisNameIsThisWeek Comedy Hour?

I’m so confused how Ava has literally no money when she was pretty well off for years before Nikolas. I remember that much from when I used to watch. It’s just a stupid plot device to embarass Ava as I guess it’s that time of the month again.

THIS.

 

I know I saw comments here and there, but watching it go down...no wonder. Make this make sense. Ava is not this stupid or desperate. And even if she was, as soon as she failed to get Laura on her side, I would at least expect Ava to start a scheme from the minute she found out Alexis was in charge of the money...especially given that SHE was the one responsible for Alexis almosts not getting her law license back.

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he fell to his death. So there was a supernatural element.
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark
