I hope not! This is the best use of Cameron Mathison I've seen since the Ryan/Gillian era of AMC. Smarmy, self-serving politician is really the role that he was born to play, and I hope they keep him around for a long time as a natural antagonist for Jason, Sonny, Carly, Nina, and the Qs.

-- These scenes with Brennan and Joss are HILARIOUS!!! And she has to keep her WSB job a secret? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

-- Did Chase fall out of bed and hit his head? This "Let's get Finn to be the daddy of our baby" is so ridiculous.

-- Diana is back with that hairpiece from hell LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Finn, with his long history of addiction, should of course be the sperm donor for BLQ's baby.  Idk, just adopt?

The Joss stuff is so silly that I almost don't even mind it.  She just gets hired and is off to an assignment with no training?

I should have mentioned that part of my problem with Finn is that addiction. I guess the writers need to drum up conflict somewhere, since they created none with the reveal that Chase can't be a bio dad.

Will we get any conflict when we get the Gio reveal? I'm guessing no, at least not between Chase and Brook Lynn.

Yep, I agree. It's so ridiculous that it's my laugh of the day right now. Chris McKenna is playing those Brennan scenes so seriously that I just can't. I've always like him as an actor, but this isn't working -- except as comedy.

On soaps I suppose the DNA connection is fine, but IRL you would just get a sperm donor who gave consent, got evaluated medically, and move on.  You would never choose a donor with a long history of addiction that barely got out of rehab a few months ago unless your main goal is to have a moody, brooding child with floppy hair.  Then Finn fits the bill.

I don't really see any meat in the Gio reveal.  Sure, there will be some fallout from Lois/Brook keeping the secret, but Gio is like the nicest guy ever.  No one would be disappointed about having him as a kid and he has no living parents (adoptive) so how hurt is he going to be? 

Yeah, the Joss stuff is so stupid it just gives me an eyeroll and a chuckle.  It's all so serious and Brennan's basis was you are young, pretty and like to talk.   WTF?

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
