ITA. They could at least throw in a line saying that they adopted them when they were 11 and 12 years old, for example. Then, it would be much more believable. At least Smitty got to give Martin a quick kiss on the cheek. The lack of affection and tenderness between them has been striking compared to the other couples.

If Martin's going to be running for president, he needs to work on being less wooden! LOL

I LOVE Leslie. She is soooo messy, and I'm here for it.

Jacob is SOOOO hot, and the actor has a nice ease to him that is missing in Martin.

Ashley's growing on me, but they really need to have her in scenes with Naomi a lot more to tie her into things. Her boyfriend (Brian?) just falls flat. He still comes across as just generic handsome guy who we are just supposed to think is hot. How much is the actor, the writing, etc, I don't know, but if I had to pick the first character to fade into the background it would be him. He needs an edge...or something...to make him interesting.

I am used to US soaps having ruined timelines because of SORAS but BTG is only a week and a half years old -  the ages cannot be this fcked already.

If Martin is going run for president in 2028 he needs to be at least 32 now to be eligible. DD has said Nicole is 53. That means Nicole had Martin at 21 at the earliest. But Nicole and Ted met at a professional conference. Do premed students typically attend those? If Nicole met Ted as a resident psychiatrist she needs to be at least 58.

They had the scene with Vanessa and the gym trainer talking about the property, in front of Vanessa's husband Doug.  So Doug knows what property she's about to show and where it is.

Doug asked his friend, the mob-affiliated Randy, for money for his gambling debt, and Randy told Doug to go ask Vanessa for the money.

Do Doug and Vanessa have an open relationship?  Does he know she likes to play around, and is he fine with that?

Will Doug go to the real estate property location to find Vanessa to ask her for the money?  Will he be surprised or unsurprised at what he finds?

Work caught up to me so I’m starting to watch now.

Today is the first day I’ve seen some chemistry between Smitty and Martin. I actually believed they liked each other so far.

Kat came in so hot at Eva my god.

Eva was so taken aback by meeting her potential father wow.

Age is one thing, but when Martin and Smitty look like they’re barely over 30 years old and are talking about what to do when they’re grown-up children move out of the house in 1-2 years, it does indeed look silly! I’m notoriously anti-SORAS and always have been, but this isn’t even SORAS. It’s questionable casting right out of the gate. Daphnee Duplaix could theoretically be playing a great-grandmother on this show inside a year.

I really enjoyed today's episode.  Now that a couple of exciting events have occurred, the characters have settled down for some day-to-day scenes, which I found refreshing.  Now we are seeing what a "normal" episode of BTG will be like, and it was great!  Very interesting to have a low drama day.  Great episode!!

The show is so sane feeling without Dani. I almost miss my daily dose of borderline personality disorder.

      Leslie's fantasy

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      Has BTG been using flashbacks much? Of course, as a new show there aren't many f/b worthy moments but I think they can get by w/o having to use/recreate the Leslie reveal scene. What other 'soap' tropes have they employed or ignored so far? We've talked about the lack of traditional cliffhangers with lingering camera shots. They have done a couple of fantasy scenes. Has anyone apart from Dana had talk to themselves scenes? Montages?

      Y&R/B&B/GL Vault Updates

      By DemetriKane · Posted

      Thank You!!! @rsclassicfanforever and to anyone else who contributed to the vaults over the years. I have dipped in/out and gotten my life watching Y&R early years. I never would had the appreciation for characters like Lorie Brooks if not for the Vaults, so again, Thanks.

      B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles

      By BoldKara · Posted

      Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.

      Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that

      Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      By EricMontreal22 · Posted

      Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      Please register in order to view this content

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene 

      Please register in order to view this content

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?
