But Kat didn't have any idea what the jacket was when she tried it on.    During episode #63 (Friday U.S.) they were sorting through the boxes of clothing donations from the church.  Kat commented that people should donate nice things, so that the recipients have nice things to wear.  Kat picked up various articles of clothing and looked at them. Kat saw the jacket and tried it on, and said "classic leather jacket!" and spun around modeling it for Nicole and Mona, saying "this would make anyone's day!", meaning that it was a nice thing that was donated.  Then she put her hands in the pockets, not looking for anything... and then her hands felt the receipts inside the pockets, and looked at them.  Then Kat realized it was probably the villainous motorcycle driver's jacket.

Today was good! Sharon I felt was appropriately bitter but I like that they didn't make her the bad guy. You can tell Anita feels bad about what she did and she's going to have to own that. I hope they continue to allow Sharon a perspective without villainizing her. One thing I found interesting is that she works in the church choir similar to Leslie...could that be her daughter?

Another big positive for me were the scenes with Martin and both of his parents. Those are relationships they haven't developed as much as they should have and they're important. I feel like Martin is at his most likeable outside of his scenes with Smitty (likely due to his secret). I hope they continue to focus on these relationships prior to the reveal.

The Leslie story continues to be a highlight as well. I love that you cannot make that woman sweat. I am so used to villains scrambling when they're about to get caught but she seems so confident that she won't be. I'm very curious how she's going to wiggle out of this one.

I don’t think so as she tried the jacket on when she just thought it was a random donation. Had she not tried it on, she wouldn’t have put her hands in the pockets and retrieved the receipts which tied Leslie to this. All of this was a lucky coincidence. Kat didn’t know she was messing with the evidence

This is what kills me about the complaints that the show is moving too slow. I don't think any of the other soaps has revealed as much as BTG has in the same time frame. Not only are stories moving but it's rotating as well. Y&R has been teasing that Dumas character since February with no reveal in sight. B&B was one day for the majority of May with very limited storylines. GH had a strong final week of May but the storylines had been dragging for months prior to that.

I appreciate that BTG doesn't focus so much on recapping and keeps the stories moving. I have anticipation about certain ones like Martin and Anita's secrets but I'm not worried about it because the writers have proven they will keep these stories moving at a strong pace.

Completely agree with you. I think Bonita Brisker has been really good as Sharon. What Anita did was obviously awful, so she doesn't need to reign anything in. We're getting a good look at someone who's struggled in life compared to Anita "We're the Duprees!" Williams.

 

-- Anita is starting to look foolish for dredging all this up just so she  can get her ass back on stage. Is she so delusional she doesn't realize how she hurt Sharon and Tracy?

-- Anita's line to Vernon "How can I expect Sharon to forgive me when I haven't forgiven myself" struck me as really selfish. After all that with Sharon, Anita again made it all about herself.

-- Does anyone really believe Anita wants equal billing if the Articulettes reunite? 

-- Colby Muhammad continues to be a standout. Her Kat more than holds her own with Leslie.

-- The writing was very good for the father/daughter scene between Ted and Eva. It wasn't so good between Ted and Martin in their father/son scene. It didn't play like family to me, especially when Ted referred to "my wife" when talking about Nicole to Martin.

-- Overall, a very solid show today.

    • Barbara, to me, is a mixture of Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown/Barbara Martin (both McGlown and Martin were part of the Primettes before they became a trio and were renamed the Supremes).
    • Maeve Kincaid said in interviews that she misses slapping Jordan Clarke's face..something along the lines "He knew how to take a slap!"   Or voodoo dolls..LOL!
    • Staci Greason was in Paris during this live tribute, which would have been in the middle of the night where she was. So Fairman arranged to pretape Greason earlier in the same day, and then spliced her part into the end of the video after the live feed, and it's all on the same youtube.
    • Agree to disagree. I like it. No doubt it's different. It's supposed to be. Is it dated? Yes, but then that's natural, it's from 1977. I think that reviewer needed to watch a few more episodes. It is clever but not precocious. The role reversal IMO works & well. The best thing I could advise anyone interested, is to try it for yourself, you can always quit it if you don't like it. As much of it as some of us were able to gain access to are up on the Internet Archive & also on my Rumble acct. If you need further directions, PM me. 
    • This was really amazing to watch.   They said that a lot of stuff was filmed out-of-order, over a few weeks. John's memorial service was filmed a few days before Drake died, and then there was a prescheduled pause (the studio being dark for a haitus week).  So they got the news of his passing during the break. But some of the recent stuff at John's bedside (such as his death) was filmed after that hiatus break, so not long after Drake died.

      I don't know how the actors got through it, especially Deidre. They said regarding episodes airing week of June 9th stuff, it will seem less dark to viewers, as there were some (relatively)  lighthearted moments. (not giving spoilers here).  But I guess Drake was still alive when those scenes were filmed, even though they knew he'd pass soon.
    • Thinking about where the current Cassadines are.  Alexis, Molly, Kristina, and Scout are currently active on canvas. Technically, Ace is on canvas, although we never see him. Jake is in school in Spain? Valentin and Charlotte are currently off-canvas, I think? I've lost track. I thought Valentin was in a prison somewhere, but then I remember reading something about Charlotte, and deciding if she'd live with Valentin or Lulu, but I don't remember what was decided.  I'm unclear on where Valentin is now. Nikolas is in prison. Did I miss anyone?
    • Thank you! Also, can't seem to find Oct thru December '73. I thought it was here at one time.
