It seems that once we got the larger Newman Ranch, the number of sets in use decreased.

They are now down to 3 sets per ep-and pretty much one scene/conversation lasts the entire episode.

So even if the Abbott set is the same size, there will still be fewer sets being used.

What happened to them moving studios? Is that still on the agenda?Maybe that's another reason why we have set deprivation. Perhaps some sets have been store away in prep for the move and/or they are operating in a smaller space for the time being?

Given how they handled the third Newman Ranch set, I'm feeling semi-confident in the so-called "remodel".

I doubt the Crimson Lights set is changing; it's been the one [pretty consistent] community space since its debut. I believe, during the Mal Young era, they updated it a bit, which it did need.

The move has either been delayed and/or canceled. They're staying put, for now.

OOooo that was soooo good and ANOTHER cliffhanger, too?? I'm so scared of what Friday entails when I get there. I'm happy the momentum is back and just right on moving.

 

Traci is giving a masterclass, and I love that BM is getting her time in the sun. Her confrontation with Alan was awesome to watch unfold. And then just having Jack (and a returned Ashley) so nearby due to Diane's remodeling was well-timed. And the highlight that I really loved was when Jack and Ashley made it to Traci's hotel room just in time before Alan figured out that she really did have her phone on. The look that BM had on her face while her words were saying something else so Alan does not realize how scared she was...was flawless. And then watching Jack and Ashley quickly cover...with the perfect excuse of Ashley wanting to see her sister since she just got back...was just PERFECT. And then Traci confronted Alan in public so Alan (if he's Martin) will not react. Just so many good moments. 

 

One thing that I continue to say about the new designer, she definitely has brought more colors into the cast. And of course leather. Yes, Ashley, I'm looking at you.

 But it was just noticeable to me in the Nick/Sharon scenes. And do I need to mention Chance and the white shirt?

 

Speaking of them, good to see that Chance was getting ever closer to the truth. Though I admit that I did worry about him when he walked up to Alan. And then Traci walked up...smh. 

 

I liked the Phyllis/Summer scenes. And I agree with her so I loved she was anti-Kyle.

So Traci is leaving town. Bye bye Beth. Thanks for your service. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

As for Phyllis' trauma, I could care less. After all she's been through and the stunts she's pulled for her to be so bothered by this...

At least La Stafford is having to tone down her performance.

Yep. Just a complete THUD of an ending.

 

Not only did we miss any lasting effects, we didn't get any effects at all.

What happened with Alan/Martin? Why not give us insight into his planning, into his mind? Where are the confrontation scenes with Traci and Ashley and Jack? Where were the scenes with Chance?

ALL of it is bewildering.

Meh.

 

Yep, @Antoyne. You were so right about Friday's episode. Outside of the Sally/Audra scenes, that was very much a 'hunni, what is this?' of an episode. Not even any follow-up. Though I did like the recap between Victor and Victoria.

 

But the good...

 

4-10. There were so many good moments and camera angles during the climax to the Tracy storyline. The standouts for me was right before Jack lunged at Alan and the camera had all three Abbotts in frame and they were all reacting separately, but together at the same time. Such a great sign of great actors and actresses. And the police station scene when Chance stood in the door (with CF looking hot AF) and moves away to reveal the 'two ladies' he was letting in was Sharon and Phyllis...and Phyllis's look was so 'if looks could kill.'

 

So it really WAS Martin. And Alan really is dead? I love the tag-team Sharon and Phyllis did on him. And I love that now Traci knows. But it might have been too neatly tied up for me...though I liked how it came together. And it sounds like I'm going to be annoyed when I get around to watching Monday's episode. But there's still so many questions. So Martin was Alan the whole time? He really fell in love with Traci? Alan is dead dead? How does Traci move on?

 

Well...at least Sally and Audra got the whole of the Friday episode. And Audra looked GOOD. They both did so kudos, Designer!! But I can't believe that Audra would risk her relationship with Nate. Especially with the secret about her and Holden out there a ticking time bomb. 

 

A good week only let down by Friday's episode.
