I wanted that, too. I hope Griffith is giving something to Audra with this Holden storyline, because I haven't enjoyed watching her become Nate's good girl. Her edges weren't just softened, they were filed off.

Honestly, I think the show is in really bad shape at the moment.

-- The best thing for Nick and Sharon would be to reunite them, but all we get is a Valentine's Day dream.

-- Billy and Sally? Don't care. Throw in Phyllis? Don't care. There's nothing to care about. Last week we heard Billy acquired all the funding he needs. FOR WHAT? For a company who's only purpose is to overtake Newman? Daniel was hired and they don't even know what he's going to do.

-- Kyle and Claire? Boring af. Don't care that Summer wants Kyle back.

-- Chelsea and Adam? Don't care.

There are no stakes in any of these relationships. None.

Schmidt’s first run was actually decent and I liked him back then. His second run was an unmitigated disaster.

Thus when rank the Noah’s…

1. Adamason

2. Schmidt

3. Gibson

4. Kleintank
 

How many many female characters were created just for Noah and flopped. We had Eden, Hunter, Zoe (not to be confused with Reed’s Zoey) Adrianna, Courtney, Marisa, and unfortunately Allie….the only ones to do okay afterwards was I guess Tessa and well @Taoboi I still can’t believe Noah and Audra were ever involved LOL unless Noah was just Audra’s errand boy for the month.

The pointless SORASING of Noah really damaged the character. There was no need to make him a teen about a decade after his father had been drastically SORASED also. 

Nick and Sharon were still viable young leads and this unnecessarily aged them. 

Same when Hayley Erin was cast as teen Abby and had nothing to do.

And then it continued with child after child being aged for no great reason.

Had they held off characters like Lily, Victoria, Lauren etc could be given parental stories at a more appropriate time.

If it must happen,I think about 12-15 years is the timeframe for a child to be SORASED, especially if there is gradual aging along the way.

And it should be consistent across the board.

Them facts. I was so happy they brought him back even if they did nothing unfortunately. And he established what Noah was...the moral compass for this parents. And I was looking forward to his halo falling off with the depression that was in RG's Noah. But alas.

 

Nope. He was the great love of Audra's life. The one who turned that ambition of hers into full on bad girl-ness. Hate to believe. Moreso knowing she could had had a Newman baby that she lost. But it never really got played.

Mmmmmm Sean Dominic and this shirt...lol.

 

And with this episode's coda, yeah, there is nothing really going on EXCEPT the Damian storyline. We got the reveal. We got the reveal of Amy seeing Holden. We got the confrontation between Damian and his mother. We are even getting fallout scenes. And BOOM...now the twist of Audra and Holden having a past from her Tucker's Henchwoman days. Just the fact that if I am understanding correctly...so Audra has known that was not Nate's half-brother the WHOLE TIME...which will only cause drama in their relationship when it comes out. And she's on good footing with Amy, Lily, and even Devon. Part of me shakes my head. The other part can see the juiciness in that drama. A side-effect (B plot) to the A plot of Damian's arrival. 

 

I am just annoyed that all of what I mentioned above has been dished out so haphazardly in comparison to the Ian/Jordan reign of terror that took up two weeks of screen time. I would have love to see more of this mixed into that...though those were good weeks already. And yes, I'm still mad that they did not follow up from the Friday cliffhanger on this past Monday. 

 

And FINALLY!!!! Billy showed his hand with that phone call. Nice to see Nick is right for once. But tbf I knew Billy was not giving up his vendetta anyway. But who was he with on the phone? Dare I hope it's Tucker? Which would be delicious given the Audra/Holden reveal.

 

Basically though...the Damian storyline is IT right now. Everything else for me does appear to be boring.

 

Le sigh.

 

Oh, I almost forgot. Ooooo at Damian and Lily's unofficial first meeting. He already looks smitten. And goodness I am used to that look on Isaiah over on GH. lol. So three good developments at the end of the episode. This. The Audra/Holden reveal. Billy's phone call.

All heck no. I love SC, but NO.

 

So Monday AND Friday were waste of space episodes.

 

Nick and Sharon as a couple...ok. Billy and Giggly Heffa...nope. Adam and Chelesa...double nope.

 

Stopped halfway in.

    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
