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 do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.
    • It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.' 
    • And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.
    • @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

    • Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.  
    • I figured the "long" was already implied 
    • You'll be very impressed
