I've been thinking the same thing.  If you're creating a soap opera with a big core family, and if you want that core family name to survive the generations, you need some male offspring.  Have they definitively said in the scripts that Anita and Vernon have only two children?  Or is it possible they have other children who are just off the canvas and living elsewhere?

Omg!!! I literally typed that out and then deleted it, because I didn't want to get attacked. But that is exactly who I thought of, as well. 

He's great eye candy and hopefully in a few months he will ease into this role more seamlessly.

An interesting plot point that I saw somewhere else. Dr. Ted's late brother was his twin. Who Leslie was spying at was the person she thought and slept with was the one she had Eva with. Leslie had no knowledge of him having been killed in an accident, so she thinks that Ted is THAT man. I like it.

The show has been on for two days, and this thread already has almost as many pages as the GH thread, and almost twice the number of the B&B, Y&R and DOOL threads combined....

Okay, so I could not watch the show live due to working, but I watched Monday and Tuesday's episodes last night and I am really enjoying the show.  I will say that Tuesday's episode was alot better than the premiere, but that is to be expected.  I am loving Nicole and I will admit Haley as well.  I do think that one of Haley's parents is somewhere on the canvas, we just don't know who....YET. I do think their is more story to Nicole's assistant and would like to see them explore that too.  

 

I think Eva is connected to Nicole's husband somehow??? Maybe a ONS that produced the daughter???? I am enjoying the cast, but do hope they will add some additional daytime names to the show that are not so Green (Hint Victoria Rowell as the sister of Tamara Tunie's character Anita or better yet a secret former lover of Vernon that no one knew about).  

Also, I do feel that the need to bring in another core family on the show to balance it out a little more. Someone who is competition for the Dupree's, etc.  Someone whose Patriarch is the baddie so to speak (opposite of Vernon).  

But so far I am impressed and enjoying the show. Here is hoping the other networks, stand up and take notice and either bring on some new shows or revive some of the cancelled ones.

I’m getting more of a fatal attraction vibe from Leslie. She’s using Eva and her friendship with Ashley to worm her way into Dr. Ted’s family and inner circle. Ashley’s mother apparently worked for the Dupree’s and she grew up around them and has their respect as well. 

Leslie could have more of a history with Ted and his family though, we’ll see. But I think, ultimately, she’ll seduce him, then become obsessed with him, and try to steal Nicole’s life.

Please, no!

Not necessarily; Dani is clearly using the Dupree name, as is Nicole (with Richardson). But of course a long-lost son could be in the making, although it makes me wonder if it'd be from Anita (pre-marriage) or from Vernon.

Well, doing twice the number of B&B/DAYS/Y&R is not that difficult. Things are actually happening on this soap in comparison to the others.

      I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.

      Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.

      Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

      I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.

      Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her

      @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.
