Rant:
I just can't make myself watch a show featuring three rapists. 

EJ forced Sami to have sex in exchange for agreeing to save Lucas' life (with the understanding that if she said no, then Lucas would remain in a harmful situation and/or left to die).  So that's rape by coercion. 

When Sami was in relationship with Rafe (or married to Rafe), EJ put Arnold in EJ's bed for a while as Rafe's lookalike.  That's Arnold committing rape by impersonation, *and* EJ committing rape by arranging the crime.

I heard that EJ had a throwaway line of dialogue a while back that he understands consent better now.  Really?  That doesn't fix things.  That's not a way to write a character.  That's just a plot device to put whatever character in whatever storyline.

Kristen has raped multiple people.

I just don't want to watch any of these people. 

/end rant


I don't care if Martha and Dan have chemistry as Belle and EJ.  It's gross because EJ raped Belle's sister!

EDIT to add:  rapist Ava is on the show too.

It is remarkable how Marlena has avoided discussing Belle, Eric, and Sami's love lives.  That was always John or Roman's domain.  I mean, she counsels half of Salem on their intimate relationships, but she barely says a peep about her own kids. 

I guess it is like the proverbial cobbler's son who has no shoes.

So, Ron was fired right in the middle of the reveal? 

Interesting. 

4 rapists: Leo.

Maybe that all played a part in Ron’s firing too. 

Maybe it’s because fans like Belle, Eric and Sami

Just watched Thursday's episode and I did a lot of fast-forwarding.

 

Javi finally told Jada that "Rafe" cheated on her.

 

Brady and Steve found Ava tied up.

 

Kristen received a package which contained a memory-erasing vial.

Unless the vial was for something else and meant for fake Rafe.

Today started off with a new establishing shot… followed by a shot that made me want to vomit

Please register in order to view this content

Btw, idk about all these stereotypes about gays and sports.

I appreciate that Javi seems to have his own character though. He deserves to be more than just Leo’s little boy. But I do think Al needs a haircut because that big bush on his head kinda distracts from those beautiful eyes

EJ and Belle was the best part of today. I’m really enjoying the dynamic between the two of them and I’m looking forward to seeing this all play out. It could go in so many different directions. And with the new writers coming in, a fresh take on all of this might make it even better. 

And I hope Brady and Kristen lose their little demon spawn to CPS. That could actually be a good storyline. Plus, Kristen is a terrible mother. She deserves to lose her kid. 

As for Aremid, now that it seems to be ending, I hope it ends fast. And ends with some people getting their asses beat or killed off.

That was fast

I liked the establishing shot, but it was then remarkable that nobody seemed to acknowledge the snow in terms of how they dressed, or how they traveled from place to place.  And, of course, there was no trace of snow in Horton Square.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too. Hopefully, they locked them into four year contracts.

      I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.

      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.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By j swift · Posted

      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.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      By JoeCool · Posted

      @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.
