That Eva and Martin scene just highlighted how awful his line delivery is. I hope to God someone bts talked to the actor or seeing the actual show makes him want to improve because he is such a tough watch for me

I am glad they had Eva ask Martin about his political success. I had the same question, but, the real answer is most definitely because of his family connections and he can't tell me any different. Lol!

When did Mona get sick?

I mentioned this before, and I agree. GATES seems to want to separate itself from the other soaps, and I don't think it works.

Yeah, I know. Your suggestion was that Nicole be killed off. I did not distort what you said, sis. And calm down? Honey, I was calmed down when I wrote that post. You should see me when I'm amped.

Omg Kat is going to be FURIOUS when Eva shows up in her clothes.

So Silkpress is going to cause a ruckus tonight as the help. Oh lord.

I actually like Martin with the kids and again I’m finally seeing some chemistry between Martin and Smitty.

Lord Dani is about to spiral again

When I watch on Paramountplus with an adblocker, the scenes seamlessly fade out and then go into the next scene.  Same seamless transition as with regular scene change during the parts of the show that don't have any commercials on broadcast tv.

It did seem a little choppy watching live on chch because chch has commercials.

Maybe the show was filmed with the thought that people would be subscribing to adfree ParamountPlus?  Not accounting for commercials from CBS or chch?

Yes but she was able to deliver it naturally. He is continuously the weak acting link in every scene he’s in, even the teenagers are stronger and this is their second episode. IDK if he’s trying to mimic Tamara Tunie and Clifton Davis’  diction or remembering his lines just makes it too hard for him but its becoming a big detriment for me.

That's fair. I am giving him grace because I have a feeling he's been given a lot of notes. that may be why he is overthinking his delivery. 

I just watched some of his past work and he was much better.

    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
