this is the kind of thing i’ve been talking about. i would have been so much more engaged in this storyline if i had a better sense of their back story.

and yes, why now? why not wait a week or two — or three:)  for the reveal? there would have been nothing to lose, and so much to gain.

If I was Hayley after today I would probably invest in good security for my house... And probably a bodyguard or two.

Possibly, but Dani seems more unhinged than Erica ever was. To me, they're not the same. As someone mentioned earlier, Dani holding a gun on her ex feels more like something Annie Lavery—or even Greenlee—would do. Greenlee’s rage when she tore the dress off Kendall on the witness stand, exposing her fake pregnancy belly, is the kind of intensity I see in Dani.

I think its possible we are all overreading a production choice to have the phone placed that way, but I am certainly not judging given my speculation heavy posts. 

The piece that makes me leery about it being intentional is it hurts her case for leaving her mother to start the purse line. I imagine this accident will be used to keep Chelsea attached to Dani a bit longer and frustate Kat in the process long enough to accept a date with Tomas. 

It's been subtly alluded to, but was more clearly laid out in casting call for Leslie. I'll address that and the stuff about Ted behing a spoiler just in case:

It was subtly alluded to in the episodes leading up to Friday's reveal, but it wasn't stated implicitly because it would have spoiled things. If you read my above comment, it should give some more insight.

Ironically, the other Atlanta produced soap "The Catlins" opened with a fairly large cast of the main family:

Generation 1: Catherine Catlin

Generation 2: her son T.J. and his wife Annabelle

Generation 3: , their children Matt, Jonathan, Maggie, Beau, and Jennifer.

Jonathan's wife Eleanor, Maggie's husband Roger were both present in the opening with Matt's ex-wife Crissy appearing in June, and Beau marrying Lauren in July

Generation 4: Jonathan had two children with at least one on-air early in the run, Stephanie. Matt's son Bobby arrived with Crissy in June.

Yeah her actions I could see Annie and/or Greenlee doing. Because Erica would never be unhinged about it. But the dialogue for me...especially the parting shot ('I'll see myself out.') with the walk-off was giving diva. And that I could see Erica doing after verbally dressing down her enemies.

 

But you know I bow down to your knowledge on all things Erica so I should just shut up if I'm offending her memory.

What makes the Leslie/Eva revenge campaign extra creepy is that they are about to make life hell for two innocent people who have not done to them what they are alleging, providing the twin angle comes to fruition. They said this show was going to be crazy and wild. It's already taking shape in so many ways.

I don't recall even once someone saying that Erica Kane and Dani are the same.

All people have said is they've seen similarities in certain aspects and vibes and etc. 

And Karla herself has stated that Dani IS somewhat like Erica Kane. And Reva.

    • So Sonni would have somebody to talk to who she wasn't conspiring with (Will or Alan)? Alex kept telling Sonni how important her friends were...when she had virtually no friends. Instead they created loyal servants like Jane and Vera to give Alex people to play off of. They did that with Iris on AW, but Vivien was mostly there for comic relief Alex keeping Marah's paternity a secret was absurd. But I still love the scene between Alex and Alan where he convinces her by reminding her how they protected each other from their abusive father. Chris and Bev ATE that scene. Unfortunately, that took place only a few months before he exited the show...always thought they could have built on that, explored more how being Brandon's children screwed them both up. Maybe even used it as an explanation for the way their relationship could constantly swing from hatred to love. Instead of it being merely dictated by the plot.
    • The first one is Cass Winthrop dressed as Krystle Lake on Another World (not from his original creation of the character to hide from the loan shark Tony the Tuna, but at a romance convention trying to find out what had happened to Felicia who was missing). The second one is also Another World, Jake McKinnon as Doris although I don't recall what his purpose was.
    • I know there was one brief scene in the summer of 1989 where Lillian did mention Calla.. but in relation to her past relationship to Ross and it was to Roger while he was a patient at Cedars.  I think he was trying to pump her for information on Ross.. and for some reason, Calla's name came up.   I could see perhaps Beth mentioning that her mother Lillian was visiting Calla.. but not exactly giving any sort of details as to the going ons in Calla's life off screen.

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
    • I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.
