Dani is close to getting drunk and driving Bill over a cliff (I'm sure most get the reference). The alcoholism is probably going to play a bigger role soon.

Andre trying to kiss Ashley was almost more embarrassing than Dani passing out in Bill's house.

Derek was already insecure before his firefighting accident.  Now with the TBI, he's going to have more mood swings and be even more prone to anger.

TBI does cause intermittent short-term memory loss that takes a while to heal, but every case is different. 

However I suspect that, because of his jealousy, Derek will intentionally do things that he will pretend he doesn't remember having just done, in order to manipulate situations.  Or he'll pretend that he didn't remember a prior situation, and then blame that for a new behavior.  He might drag out the TBI memory lapse tendencies longer in pretense, even if his memory is recovered.

Kat looked great! I don't mind her in "contemporary" clothes, but I'm glad she's back to her everyday-style in the previews for next week.   She and Tomas look good together but yeah, his line delivery is pretty bad.  LOL.

I'm tired of Dani's antics.  Too much too soon.  And that's coming from someone who loved Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald's antics.  LOL  But one is in her 50's and the other was in the early 20's. 

How did MVJ get Derek and Ashley so wrong?  She created these two?  Yikes.

Dani is carrying her obsession and her behavior way too far for a character who is not supposed to be a villain. Plus, she is getting too much screen time.  She is most definitely over-stimulating!  Unlike Nicole, who tends to be a calming influence.  If they keep writing Dani like this, they should just make her the show's bad-girl (or one of them), and allow her to be an unapologetic villain.

I am so glad that my TomKat got some scenes today. I need more of them. I just hope they don't have Kat be a cliche heroine that lords her virginity over Tomas' head. If so, I can so see Eva giving him what he needs. But as I said before, I'd prefer for Eva to stick to Kat by bedding Naomi's hubby. 

I am over Dani's antics at this point. And no HOA guard would ever give a code to the ex-wife given what's she done. That was farfetched. It's time for Dani to move on. Andre's fine a** is right there. 

Speaking of Andre, he needs to get out of Ashley's orbit. Ashley & Derek are BORING.

All these last few posts are the perfect examples of what I mean when I refer to the pacing. 

And, Idk if it was meant to be written this way, but I have a lot more sympathy for Bill and Hayley then I thought I was going to. Especially after today.

And yeah, Tomas needs work lol but he and Kat were sweet today

But, y'all a drunk scene like this is just classic! To write, it, to direct it, to act it! Act 2, Scene 2, Fallen Angels, Noel Coward! And a lot more! Actresses are lucky if they get to do this once in a career. 

Finally! Someone else is mentioning the sex on BTG!! I've been saying they not only have sex but they also talk about it!!!

I get that they have this toxic cycle, but WTF would Bill move into the community that Dani lives in given how psychotic she is? She didnt just turn out like this since he got married. And why would Hayley agree to this? Dani has no boundaries and will continue to show up unannounced, even let herself in, threaten, shade and try to kill them. Her parents are practically the mayor and first lady of that community and will always cover for her so Hayley's mental will always be on edge. I seriously wouldnt be surprised if she ends up snapping nad going crazy herself dealing with all this BS. This is too much

I'm not saying it was bad.  I'm just saying it's a bit too much for nearly every episode.  And Dani is seeming more and more like a villain -- not a good-girl with a few problems.  If MVJ wants Dani to be a villain, then I'm fine with Dani's behavior.

    • Kat vs. Eva and Anita vs. Leslie were today's highlights.
    • TBF, the majority of Month 2 was them beefing up all the side-stories...mind you Duprees as well as non-Duprees...and it did not seem like people were taking to it as well as they were taking to stories in Month 1. If anything I feel (hope) that May Sweeps is going to shift...while dealing with the aftermath of the Nicole/SilkPress storyline...to the next big story aka Martin's Secret. But that's me hoping that Martin's meltdown over SilkPress jiggles some memories of his out...which I was already hoping would happen. Add on that Bill is involved in both stories now...that might be his way of being sure nothing happens to him now in light of SilkPress's antics.    And...same. I feel they did a better job than expected with Vanessa/Doug with me because I didn't even realize how invested I was until their talk at the hospital and Doug made that subtly blunt comment about their arrangement...making the various online discussions online real. And for me, relevant. 
    • Michael Logan is being disingenuous. He knows who's to blame in these situations. Not only does he know how daytime works, but he also wrote about all the BTS shenanigans at the P&G soaps leading up to the Justine story. I will give Victoria Wyndham this: she went all out in the performance. She didn't half ass the performance. Let's also not forget that it was Michael Logan who was publicly calling for the firing of JFP when she on GL but says nothing about that in this interview or in the articles. My guess is that someone at AW didn't like Wyndham and was giving Logan the gossip and he was writing his column with that tea.
    • Basic script work; if it hadn't been for Jane Elliot and Rena Sofer, it could've been for any random character.
    • Because you are posting these things like they are true facts.  And they aren't. But whatever, Donna, you will just keep doing you.   Most people actually are trying to talk about GH in this thread.  Not random twitter/facebook/internet rumors you bring here.  I am just wasting my time even responding.    
    • This is a common theme with long running actors and preposterous storylines. Firstly they may relish the chance to play something different after years as that character-Ok I have an evil twin, possessed by the devil etc-at least it's something new to play. Secondly, no matter how dumb the plot it keeps them frontburner and valued to the show and the audience. Better than being a talk to. Thirdly, as VW stated in the end they don't have the power to dictate story and too much complaining can backfire and set them up in a negative light. Not a good position to be in with your employers. So they just buckle up and give it their all or act out the script till it's over.
    • Your use of the word "apparently" would need to include a source. Just your use of the word doesn't make it true or valid. Where would you get the idea that something has happened if you hadn't already received an indication from somewhere else, specifically a valid source (including Tabyana herself)? By using the word "apparently," you are implying this was mentioned somewhere, either in a publication or similar.
    • I think Hotel would have the similar demos as Dynasty W 19-49 would have been strong. St Elsewhere survived b/c it attracted wealthier/urban viewers and The Equalizer was probably stronger with men and younger viewers. So each had their own niche-good counter-programming. As for Aaron Spelling's influence over ABC in terms of scheduling, I don't know if he would have been happy with Charlie's Angels moving to Sunday, The Colbys scheduled on Thursdays or Matt Houston moved to Fridays. I think he just had to roll with the punches.
    • Thank you @Broderick. That information was so helpful. I watched the first episode of the "Mansion of the Damned" storyline. I was extremely confused by Margaret Colin's Paige and her relationship to other characters. Your post helps me understand what's happening. The rest of the show was easy to understand and I'm enjoying it. Hunter's Nola is a good character for me since I know Kim Hunter from other work.  I must have seen clips of Edge of Night before because I remember seeing April. 
    • How is it back tracking when it was in fact the word I originally used? It's not.
