You know I brought up just that story, based on truth, weeks ago.

One thing I feel I have to say, a woman crying in an elevator?!!! Really? This to you spells insanity?!!  if that's the way you think, then I shudder to think how you are with an ordinary person who is grieving. I know I would not look to you for any kind of empathy.

It would be. While the writers aren't going to have a core character turn into a murderer they certainly have borrowed from the harassing behavior Broderick engaged in and how her husband achieved his success with her help.

What I can see happening is that Bill's shady legal antics get him shot and Dani gets blamed for it but no one believes her. And of course her gun will be the weapon.

Yep, the Tomas actor is pretty damn awful. Casting made some bad decisions. That "So you're a virgin" talk was so bad.

Why have George be so dumb -- giving Dani the security code? I hate that kind of writing.

Part of the mistake here isn't even the actor. Why have him still in the hospital? And walking around an IV? For what??? He would've been released after the concussion check. Instead we get Ashley (apparently with little nursing to do) meeting with Andre and his camera by the front desk. Why would Andre hang there?

Yeah, I know, he likes Ashley. Sorry, the whole thing is awkward as hell.

Dani... yawn.  One note character played by a one note actress.

Andre/Ashley/Derek = Not working

Hayley has potential, but I would love to see her mixing it up with other characters in town.. and not just isolated to Bill and Dani.

Tamara is a great actress.. is that why she's given the most cringey words to speak because she has the ability to make them sound good?

By far. I'm sad that I have to complain, but all the negatives mentioned here about today's show are true. Overall, it was bad. Carlivati's name on the script only gives those of us who dislike him a reason to nod our heads.

-- I want Dani to be crazyfun. I don't want her to be batsh_it crazy. I cannot tell what the writers are going for.

-- Why make Dani so insane...and so insanely stupid...as to go to Bill and Hayley's house with that gift? Why not have her do stealth things to get back at them?

-- I guess that honeymoon lasted less than 48 hours.

-- The Tomas actor is worse than the Derek actor. Ashley is not much better, and I still can't understand why Andre is hot for her.

-- The "weekly family dinner" where no one shows up? And Anita doesn't get pissed?

Today was a chore. When purse cat manages to give off more emotion than a majority of the humans in the scene, I should have known today was going to be an issue. 

I don't think is anything to Derek / Ashley / Andre story to invest in. I think the show might already be shifting to an Eva / Andre angle which would be in their best interest. I'd be much more intersted in trying out Andre / Shanice. I cannot really find any angle of the current configuration I enjoy. Andre / Dani doesn't feel longterm, to me, and I don't hate Andre in theory. He's just drifting, which makes sense to an extent because he is suppose to have spent so much time abroad. 

Dani getting the code from George the security guard was just dumb. I think there might have been a better angle to explore with Jan, Ashley's mother who cleans houses, if they had established she had been hired as she is already Team Dani. This is only going to get Dani deeper in trouble with her legal proceedings, but whatever. She seems very undeterred. I almost wish they would go really unhinged and have had her live streaming the whole thing to her merry cult of online worshippers. Initially, I thought leaving the bottle was actually going to lead to something cathartic, but then in just descended into another Dani moment. 

I like Kat, but the whole set up for her date was odd. At her parents house was a choice. I would rather they have just redecorated Ashley's studio for the occasion. Tomas is rough. I want to like their romance, but this first date just wasn't it for me. 

After a terrific set of episodes this week, to lose the energy on a Friday is a disappointment. Not having any follow up to Eva / Leslie today was probably the biggest disappointment.

I am quite aware of the family tree. Given that Eva's paternity isn't definitive yet and Andre was acting a bit shady week 1, I wouldn't be surprised if one of them isn't a Richardson. But considering the fact that Andre was raised as a surrogate son of Nicole and Ted, and he had no problem bedding down with Auntie Dani then I don't think the cousin angle is something that would give him the ick.

No one. Just like "which one of these things does not fit with the other?" To the thread. To anyone being too serious about a character that can function 100% successfully who is used to express heightened drama & camp. 2 extremes: golf club attack on property & woman weeping in an elevator.

      GH: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      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!

      Falcon Crest

      By te. · Posted

      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.

      Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime.

      Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
