You are acting like we are name-calling some kind of Saint... but in actuality Dani has been acting like a complete lunatic. She is unhinged and just recently destroyed an iphone in a glass of chardonnay. Sorry, sweety, but that's the hard reality of it. Also...are you Dani's personal secretary? Or her defense attorney? Why do you feel so protective of a fictional character? And why are you making this PERSONAL with me? I haven't stated anything personal about you... I was just commenting about a freaking character on the soap. So...please don't try to measure what is beneath or above me.  

I will call a fictional character on a soap opera the way I see it. PERIOD. If you have a problem with that, then take it to admins. Report my "name calling" of Dani. We'll see how that goes. JUST don't try to shame me for my opinion. But again - you are a person who puts Dani in a "good" list and says that all she did was try to scare and humiliate people... Yeah.  Just one question - is Dani a saint in your eyes?

That's a rhetorical question.

I can see it... Sheila-Carter 1992 style... with Mona slipping on an oiled-by Silkpress step... and hitting her head down the stairs.

He didn't see her. He was on his phone and looking in the opposite direction. The only thing that scene established is that she knew him. 

She would be great on this show. She's one of the people I hope pop up some time during year one.

Actually, it was shown that Ted didn't quite see her coming off the elevator. Silkpress was standing slightly off to the side. I STILL think the twin angle holds a possibility. How about "Ted" isn't Ted? He's actually Stan, the bad twin. Nicole's REAL husband is off somewhere at a secret location tied to a chair. Lol. It would remind me of how crazy Janet Green stole her sister Natalie's life by kidnapping her and dropping her into a well on All My Children.

I'm getting caught up. I think the Lesley will end up dead eventually and it will be a whole whodunnit. I don't know how long it will take to get us there or how many other people she will put in the hospital.

I'm not advocating for her ending up working at the grill after terrorizing people like Sheila or whatever, but I would keep Dana/Leslie around as long as humanly possible.

She will be my first big test for the writers. I find on modern soaps they have a habit of taking villains too far and not wanting to let them go. I'm curious how they will handle Leslie. If they do take her too far then they need to write her off but I hope they see her long term potential and hold back. She can be impactful without killing people and doing things that make it implausible to keep her around.

I hope not because I feel Mona has another role to play. But I do feel she will catch on before anyone as well.

But still good to see you post.

I agree - I don't think they should have her actually cross that line until they feel like they've run out of story for her. I don't want a murderer running around and getting away with it on the canvas because they can't let go of her crazy vibe. That's why I'm a bit worried that they pulled the "Sherry Carter" stunt already - Nicole sees her and connects her and Eva then it's going to be hard to explain her not putting the pieces together without dumbing her down.

I choose to have more trust in the writers for now, but I fear they'll just be too tempted eventually. Same with how I want them to stick to their guns with killing off characters unless it's an obvious "soap opera death" (which is why I'd be against killing off Naomi since that's the type of character that's tied to the main family and could be useful down the road).

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
