Okay, this final scene between Dani and Haley is great, but are they in front of a green screen? Something looks super artificial about it.

OMG, the family walking off and giving Haley the side-eye one by one was the best.

Love the look Anita gave Haley at the end, lol.

I absolutely LOVE BTG! The production, writing, characters and the casting are all brilliant. The episode went by way too fast.  I am glad the first episode was used to introduce the characters and main storylines. Especially seeing how the 3 generations of the core family interact.  It did not need to be over the top and action packed.

Let me be the first to give you a housewarming present! 

I'M IN LOVE!

IN LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE. 

Good first episode! But looking forward to the rest of the week!  

 

I was kind of hoping we would get real closing credits but…oh well…

Finally

 

Welcome To Fairmont Crest

 

That was a perfect way to end the Ep !!!!!

CBS doesn’t do that for any show, so I wasn’t expecting it. Let’s see if we get it on Paramount+.

For reference, Michele Val Jean herself wrote all five of the show's first episodes. We'll see next week if someone who got to write the first episodes after her.

I missed the first 20 minutes, but I loved all the rest of it. I have absolutely no negative things to say. Maybe it's the adrenaline or the fact that I'm so hyped right now... We'll see how I'll feel by the end of the week, but right now... I'M ON BTG-EUPHORIA!!!!!!!!! 

What a FANTASTIC soap debut!!! I am so happy I decided to stay home and experience this with all of you live. So much in my life has changed since the days of live-posting during AMC, but the excitement of sharing opinions and reactions with everyone has not changed one bit!!

Who would have ever thought we'd be here sinking our teeth into a brand new soap?
