I never thought I would say this, but...UGH at Ted and Nicole.

I stay enjoying seeing Martin. What a difference a year makes.

It's funny watching Hayley being mad over Babygate knowing that the walls are closing in on her and Bill will be mad at her soon enough...

Where my like for the story fell was post-Doug's death because Vanessa has completely stopped being any hint of three-dimensional or shades of gray and is just whiny and frankly annoying. A cardboard heroine...and she's not even a heroine...more like a...Jacinta...if you catch my drift from the GH board. While Dani has developed, Vanessa has...regressed? She cries at the drop of a hat now where she used to be cunning. Crafty. But still funny. Where did that WOMAN go?

Yep. I despise who Vanessa has become. Is she being used to make the Joey character more acceptable? Because now I hate them both.

This past week has been nuts. She watched Joey take down Nicole and Carlton at that dinner for pretty much no reason and said nothing. Then she ended up blaming Nicole for the mess. What did we get? A Nicole APOLOGY to Vanessa -- but nothing from Vanessa herself.

Then we got Vanessa trashing Bill when talking about his past with Dani, completely lacking in self-awareness that her past with Doug is filled with her being an unfaithful wife who does escorts at the country club. Now she runs the escort business and screws a mobster criminal killer.

We hear her say she's been a good, devoted mother, but all we've been shown says otherwise. I don't know why Dani and Nicole care so much about holding on to a friendship with this piece of trash.

I really like Ashley and Grayson.

SHANICE!!!! Moment of truth on how I'll be feeling about Ted and her going forward.

I think at one point, the writers were trying to use Vanessa to make Joey more acceptable. Now...nah.

I am honestly disappointed that Vanessa vs Nicole didn't last a little bit longer. Of course, it could and probably will blow up again since this has been going on since Nicole suspected that Joey and Vanessa might be a thing. But still...I would rather they be at odds. At least until Vanessa finds out what Joey did.

I caught that, too. re: Vanessa and Bill. And I did side-eye.

And I think Nicole hit the bullseye when she said that Vanessa did not care about anything...her business AND her kids, throwing over all of it for Joey. And from what we have been shown through Donnell and Deanna, it's true. So I feel nothing about Deanna dragging her every chance she gets.

Hehe. That's the Shanice I like to see!!! She wants ALL the tea!

Liking a lot of the pairings today. Martin/Tomas. Kat/Ted. Now Martin/Nicole.

Another Martin's Secret reference? Hmmmmm.

BILL!!!

Now they are just teasing us with Hayley's downfall.

GET HER, BILL!!!

Darrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn not Hayley pulling from the Pregnant Kristen Dimera Playbook! I can't! lol.

Now Tomas...what are you doing?

Grrrr. Yep. Ted is back on my 'Not Like' List. Shanice deserves better.

So Kat is completely happy and Tomas wants her to meet his family. He's a goner, ain't he?

You better spin that tale, Kristen Dimera!!!

So Grayson's Mom is real. There goes that theory.

gasps

But...Cliffhanger!!

Pretty good episode.

I happened to be working in my local office today, and was able to watch Beyond the Gates live in the lunchroom as I worked. I also caught the last ten minutes of B & B and the only thing I'll say about that show is yikes (haven't watched it in several years so I was very confused who everyone was... and was bummed that Brooke didn't give a look that indicated she also hid a letter written by Caroline to Ridge that she kept hidden!

Today was a filler day, but I also think there is some groundwork being laid out for May sweeps.

Shanice's line about men and their drama really hits home the anti-male vibe that the show has even though Shanice is doing the complete opposite of what her instincts are telling her to do.

The ending with Grayson was a nice surprise, and I think we can now agree that he's telling the truth about his mom. It would be nice if Ashley had someone she actually has chemistry with stay on the show LOL

Hayley was doing the Oscar reel today while the talks that Tomas had today don't bode well for the lad.
