Loved the episode today. looking forward to the fallout.

Nubian-Sheila looked fantastic, but I wish the writers would cut back on her overuse of figurative language.

I loved the "fix yo mind ministries" line though. The background music during her fantasy confrontation with Nicole was epic.

He a dirty dog! Those are his kids and he hurt everyone. At this point he needed to just come clean. I can't believe I was lusting over this man! I hope they aren't quick to forgive.

Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.

I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes.

Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up.

I absolutely loved the last few episodes—devoured them!

If Trisha and Ambyr’s performances aren’t Emmy-worthy, I don’t know what is.

I wasn’t bothered by the lawyer girl not being at the gala from the start, or the grandkids being absent, or Vanessa being MIA. It just goes to show how unnecessarily huge the Dupree family is. And like Toups said, you can’t cram the entire cast into a single episode.

Oh and the cue when Leslie was having that fantasy was epic, very DAYS-like. They should keep it and develop it  

Minor nitpicks:

  • Yeah, Ted seriously needs a recast—been saying that since day one. I still don’t know where he stands, and he just comes off as a generic nice guy.
  • Not having Ted and Bill share a single scene since the show started? Huge missed opportunity. And not having Leslie get anywhere near Bill in one of her wigs? Another big miss. It really weakened the impact of her big reveal about Bill’s involvement. Now it just feels a bit like fan fiction.
  • I’m totally confused by Vanessa and Doug’s “arrangement.” One moment it seems like they’re in an open relationship, and the next Vanessa acts completely shocked when Doug so much as hints at her “distractions.” Huh? Can anyone explain what’s going on there?

I think the party reveal was what made them recast Ted since they saw he couldn't handle it and the fallout. It'll be interesting to see if the same will happen once Martins secret and the ensuing fallout is set to happen - it might give an indication with how far their patience for green newbies is.

I gotta say, the actress that plays Kat brought it in these episodes, just as much as TMG and Ambyr. 
 

 

Love that score and hope they use more of it. I’d call it “Leslie’s theme” lol

    • Same.  They are easy to tell apart. I had trouble telling Chad Duell and the guy that played Dex apart at times, but these guys are just like men that look slightly similar?  Not even the same age range. I don't really get your point.  These people aren't the Ford brothers.
    • Frank did the same thing on OLTL 
    • It would have been cute if Lucky did perform and dedicated a song to Elizabeth who couldn't be there, but we don't get nice things Blaze wasn't actually that good of a singer.  I judge Miguel Morez (more than usual) for his taste in opening acts.
    • Facially they don't look that similar. I don't think anyone would compare Rory, Giovanni and Van aside from their hair. Van is also 43, so...I'm sure he would find being compared to some of these guys flattering. Rory reminds me a little of that unsettling actor who played that godawful son on Nip/Tuck. I doubt it was intentional to go that route with Michael, but it would be interesting if they do try to bring back how deeply unsettling Michael was as a child.
    • Sorry.  I sincerely should not have brought that thought into the world.

    • True. Maybe Jonathan was willing to perform and Frank just didn't care. I hope not, as they had to spend money they don't have by hiring some other artist to come in and perform one number. (maybe that's where Blaze would have gone if she were still around)
    • I mean, casting handsome, young, white men with floppy hair isn't exactly a new thing for soaps.  All these characters are supposed to be handsome, young, white men so it's not odd. If we want to talk about Trina's love interest being Cardboard Kai I can agree.  This isn't the same thing.
    • Leslie is nuts! Her pretending to be Nicole was peak insane. Tricia has plenty to put in her Emmy reel, but that might seal a nomination. NuTed finally did something to break out of the background and hopefully he keeps it up. Vanessa trying to stand up for Nicole wasn't wrong, but she has no room to judge anyone on adultery. Doug seems like a good person outside of the gambling and clearly has never cheated, yet Vanessa has constantly played in his face with her cheating. Tracy got Anita to be truthful and for the mask to slip. If Tracy is this direct I cannot imagine how much Sharon is going to go in.
    • Do NOT jinx this year or next year.
    • @ErrolI saw no new episode Monday, is it a repeat or just not airing due to the Holiday?
