Cody overcome one of the most wretched and intensely unpopular introductions I've seen for a new character in quite a while (I still don't know why people were calling him "Truck Nuts"!) to win me over as the easygoing, kind, witty and somewhat himbo-ish stablehand for the Qs. Why they would go back to shít that does not work for this character - presumably because Frank and CVE remember him playing scheming Cutter on OLTL - is beyond me. He can get into capers and stuff, but let's not get stupid.

It is so bad. It shows how little they regard her at this point, too. She could be doing Gio, but that would scandalize people. Or I'd take that secret Ward heir! I don't care! Anything else!

It sucks because he was playing easy charm so well, and it was working.

I have to be honest, I was kind of dreading Michael’s children (and us) being put through a custody war. I was close to dropping the show for awhile because I had my fill of it when the show revolved around fighting for baby Michael for a decade. But the inclusion of Tracy has made it actually watchable. Add to that Drew being pure scum and I was actually entertained.

Hats off to Cynthia Watros- her clear disappointment at Willow running to Drew when she was solving the problem, and General attitude towards him is great. If Nina has to be here, this is a great way to utilize her.

Nailed it about Cody.

This is horrible character regression that makes no sense and does nothing but service bad plot.

Yes, Cody was given a wretched and intensely unpopular introduction, yet over the course of a year, Josh Kelly and GH were able to turn that around. Cody became a character I wanted to keep around.

This turn -- back to being irresponsible and careless and lacking on any level of common sense -- is just awful.

    • Billy just showed up for Vanessa's memorial (Sept 9, '96), which is so nice!  My first time seeing him like this outside of random clips from the past. He's out of jail for 24 hours, so not long. It's good to see him with the family.
    • Definitely was more recent than not; when the set originally returned, the change hadn't happened.
    • It was nice seeing Victorias house and I see it’s been remodelled. I’m sure this happened awhile ago but since I tuned out from the show for so long I am only noticing it now. Looks beautiful though!  Also, Billy and Sally gross me out so much. I don’t know what it is I hate so much about them. They give me the ick. Definitely a mismatch. I don’t buy that these people would be attracted to eachother in real life much less have a relationship..

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
