Was it just me, or was Friday's episode really bad??? I was like, what the hell am I watching??? LOL Sharon & Michelle were awful in the scenes leading up to the rescue IMO. I guess I can't totally blame them since the writing was just as bad.

It felt very rushed...as if JG was tired of this storyline as much as the audience. Heck, as soon as they were rescued, it was an immediate cut to the Newman ranch. Also, there was no gas effect.

Yeeeah I don't know how I feel about that. Well, I guess first of all I did love that what I said about Monday was true. A story being Saw ripoff, B story being Claire/Kyle/Summer, and the real interesting story aka the Damian storyline which had movement and yet another twist with the reveal that Damian is only the CEO not only being pushed to C plot with Amy out of town, but vanished after Tuesday like I suspected. Really ugh. What hurt the reveals in that story...which have actually been good...is the story being jerked around in terms of it vanishing at odd moments. 

 

Now about Wednesday's twist now that I saw the whole episode...uhhhhh. Unless it turns out that Alan is really Martin, his twin, it really does not make sense. I just cannot see Ashley having a crazy Jigsaw-like friend...regardless of Ashley's history. And now he wants to marry Tracy, too? Lord...shock value for shock value reasons. And Tracy was actually happy. That said...I did love Friday's coda of Tracy looking at the phone. If this silly story turns into a Tracy story...well, I love seeing Beth Maitland so I'm not against it, but still...ugh.

 

And Friday was a mess. The whole episode felt like JG was just tired of the story (he ain't alone) and rushed through everything. I loved seeing Chance in cop mode and I continue to like the odd couple of Nick and Billy, but I was over Sharon, The Giggly Heffa, and Their Misadventure last week. It did cross my mind that they might get out without knowing it's Alan. And that could be juicy. But I still question...why them? He has no history with either really. And the fact it was being done like Alan is Jigsaw just makes this Saw fan (who just found out Saw 11 is cancelled today) highly annoyed. 

 

It's been so long since I've seen Chloe that I was glad to see her. Even if it was with Chelesa. And NO I don't want to see Kevin.

 

And I enjoyed Chance being there for Summer. 

 

Overall, stupidity aside, it was a decent week outside of Friday.

Yeah I don’t recognize the voice either…the only actress who was born in 1973 (since she said she was 7 years old in 1980) on Bold is Rebecca Budig I think, unless it’s a random crew member who EB knows from the studio.

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)

    • They could easily be re-created, or even re-shot in different ways, especially if they were re-shooting scenes at some point, as well.
