It's a very well done set design.

[Paul Raven]

Yes I like that set. Glad they've moved away from the generic and cheap looking furniture/decor.

One thing that bothers me is that you don't get a  sense of where that room sits in the floor plan in relation to other rooms/front door etc.

I wonder how other actors who don't have home set feel when Billy is gifted with a new home while they are forever destined to wander b/w Society/CL/GCAC or share a GCAC room with other characters?

Thank you for the link. The interview was good.

[dragonflies]

Holden, Damien and Lily, Griffith had to have done that intentionally. Did he ever write for ATWT? lol 

[Taoboi]

Ironically the day before you posted this, I had just read Linden Ashby's SOD article about him first returning to the canvas.

@Taoboi The last two days of the week, the Damian story really heats up! Thoroughly enjoyed it.

So far I’ve enjoyed the new sets so I’m curious what Diane’s Abbott mansion refresher will look like.

[Paul Raven]

The blood drained from my body when Billy decided to set up...A NEW COMPANY!!!

Abbott Communications will do it all,he enthused-news, entertainment, podcasts, self help...

Jack pulled millions out of a hat to finance his dead beat brother's latest fancy.

So now there will be hiring/firing, nail biting competition with rival companies , lots of discussions in restaurants etc

Shoot me now.

2-5

 

Okay, seriously...is Eric Breaden about to retire? I thought about that last week and some of the conversations Victor has been having with characters has made me start to question that. Here with Victoria and Adam. The other day with Nick. What is going on? 

 

While I've been enjoying moments over the last few episodes, there's already been too much Billy for my taste. Of course, that means that I've been FFing a lot. Though I caught that cute catty moment between Sally and Phyllis.

 

Speaking of...yes!!! I loved Sharon vs Giggly Heffa at Crimson Lights. Sharon got so many good digs in as she put Phyllis on notice. More of this Sharon please.

 

Another moment I loved was Audra and Amy looking over Audra's job options and Amy going Black Mama with her 'Nope.' LMAO!!! Those two have gotten so close. And I enjoy it. But the Daiman storyline continued to progress over these last two episodes and I loved it. The reveal. The Olivia shoutout. The brief history on Nate Sr. I don't see how Holden (hehe at @soapfan770) is going to keep up the deception to Nate because Amy will want to see her son at some point, right? In any case, totally invested.

 

Uh oh at Victor/Adam's talk. So Victor wants Adam to downplay the Ian/Jordan story on Newman Media. Not realizing that Ian is STILL alive. THAT will come back to bite him.

 

I liked the little moment between Summer and Daniel over their mother as well as Jack/Diane with Kyle/Claire. Any mention of John Abbott and Jack's love for his dad will always draw me in. 

 

But yeah...right now the A story is the Damian storyline it seems. I have no problem with that. Other than that, just a lot of interesting moments I like to see...BUT waaay too much Billy.

Ooooo I will take that tea. I might see if I can squeeze those in tomorrow between rugby (The Six Nations tourament started...started being shown in the US...last weekend) and Super Bowl. 

 

Oh, I forgot. I'm curious to see what Diane does. And it touches back on her return story. Nice touch.

[BoldRestless]

Super exciting! Will Sally be hired to decorate the office, even though he'll work from a laptop in his new living room?

[kalbir]

Nooo, do not put that out there in the universe

I don't want to put that out there in the universe. lol. It's just something I noticed in the writing lately and that worries me. It seems like they are setting up for something with Victor. But...what? Cuz EB himself keeps right on tipping.
