BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

and she about to debut another one!

one difference in Teds is that the OG had a dark side and I felt he had the capacity to kill Leslie. The new one is way too patient with her. I don't know i its the writing bc there's less desperation and anxiety on his side now that he secret is out but its definitely something I notice

Poor NuTed having to wear all of OldTed's clothes. He looked like he was swimming in that sportscoat today!

Leslie continues to entertain! Hopefully, they walk a fine line from letting her go too crazy and being written into a corner.

  • Dana taking the hotel room luxuries (beauty products, robe) is too real; I admit, I've never done this, but I know plenty that have.
  • Deadbeat trying to romance Bradley, who will continue to cockblock him (as he should).
  • I appreciate the on-going dynamics with Anita and Tracy and how Tracy's continued feelings are built up.
  • And just when I thought Shanice was mellowing out... the gossip is right back out. Good on Douglas for putting her in line.
  • Oh, more history with Vernon! This is very exciting to me. Love this kind of storytelling.
  • Uh-oh, Douglas is [finally] seeing what is being exactly sold by Joey to Vanessa... and I know he don't like it.
  • Good on Ted for calling Dana out on [some] of the twisted lies she's been telling and the manipulation she's been pulling with Eva. And finally... someone is telling her one of the places her crazy ass is going: JAIL!
  • Dang... Tracy's foot is firmly on Anita Williams' neck (not Anita Dupree), and she is not letting it up.
  • I just realised... Dana's mirror is giving the Magic Mirror in Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. And she's as delusional as the Evil Queen.
  • Not Dana dressing herself up as Nicole; homegirl is certifiable and needs to seek counselling in a mental hospital immediately.
  • I appreciate Vanessa calling out Ted; however, the continued call-outs at the Nurse's Hub at the hospital are a choice.
  • Uh-oh, who else was caught in the decisions that Anita made way back when? Is it Dante Greene, too? Did someone have his baby? Tracy or Sharon? Or something else?

Notes:

  • Keith D. Robinson (Ted) continues to shine; his subtleties in the role are brilliant and do so much in providing Ted the much-needed humanisation he was missing.
    When are we going to cast Dante Greene? He keeps being named, and when a name drops, we're bound to see it.
  • Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa) showed up to work today extra hard; I loved her conflicted emotion, given Vanessa's own actions in her marriage.

Anita and Tracy were great. I hope they don't drag out the backstory too long.

I normally love Leslie, but I do think today was going too far. The Nicole 2.0 part was making me lean toward not rooting for her for the first time. 

Vanessa was too preachy for me with Ted. When she's so messy herself, it makes it hard to not find her as a hypocrite. I liked her early on. However, I've lost interest in her character. 

Next week looks amazing. I can't wait. I hope their ratings keep bumping up steadily.

@Liberty City     , I agree, most of the cast came to play today. Leslie and Ted had me cackling in that hotel room, but Doug had the line of the episode. "Not a damn thang"! 

I can't decide which punishment would be best for Leslie. Jail or the nuthouse.

    • Also, just checked, Hope was wearing Alice + Olivia ($595) and Sami wore a more shocking green, and it was by Aqua (price not indicated)
    • CIARA's outfit would have been fine if the cameraman wasn't literally filming down her shirt.  You could see Victoria's bra and boobs for at least half the episode lol.
    • Also, I'm giving Hope's Chanel jacket and Ceara's leather pants a pass, because I don't think they knew that they would wind up in Salem today when they got dressed.  So, there's been no time/opportunity to change outfits. Although

      it reminded me that Sami and Hope seemed to have both shopped at a Chanel-knockoff outlet recently.  And if Hope, Ceara, and Bo suddenly have a change of clothes next week, I'm gonna need a throwaway line about how Hope raided Aunt Maggie's closet because of all that shopping she's been doing with Julie. Yep, it must be why they so rarely show flashbacks of the whole wedding party. Caroline looks like Kate 1.0
    • Lol.  I just really disliked Melissa. Melissa was gone before Billie and I THINK before Carly. I have no idea who the people are on the right of Bo.  Was that the weird time they recast Caroline and Shawn?  I think the kids are Eric and Sami.   Marlena and Abe look fancy and fresh lol.

      The third man is Howie Hofstetter, Bo's friend who helped Hope get out of marrying Larry Welch. I'm holding out for a hero… I'll let someone else tell you who the other two are, because it will blow your mind. Poor Bo & Hope had a free destination wedding in England, at a castle, and only the "B" team of Salem was available to attend! Also, (to paraphrase an old song) tonight we're celebratin' the love of Hope's scullcap at her English wedding.  A lot has happened in between. But, it was still an amazing headpiece. That deserves recognition for not only how long KA kept it pinned to her head, but then she loved it so, she wore it at her real wedding.
    • Watch it still be more of a classic than what B&B and Y&R would show.
    • It's a repeat. Not sure of the episode # just yet.
    • Aw, I care about Melissa. Hope's OG bff, and I'm talking before the SORAS. #neverforget I think the polite thing to do is just a simple Happy Anniversary, plus heartfelt message, without the mention of specific years. Did Melissa ever interact with Billie or Carly? I'm guessing fake Melissa did with the latter before she left? That picture made me realize I've never really thought about how it was pre-Steve and John existing. And no Roman, or Kayla, or Doug and Julie. Who was Bo's best man? And who are the three people next to him in that picture?
    • Lol.  No one cares about Melissa.  She's a non factor. I do side eye the Billie/Carly years and the multiple divorces, but I still consider John/Marlena's 1986 marriage to be their real marriage even though it's not, so I'll let the whole thing slide with Bo/Hope.  Kristian looks great so when you hear 40 years of marriage you think she was like 11 when she got married.

      Here's the question, let's say you're Melissa, -- Would you be forgiven for not posting about Bo & Hope's anniversary today on social media because you didn't include the number of years that either of them were assumed dead in the last 40 years? Is it rude to Billie and Carly, if the Brady's ignore the time Bo was with them?
