I guess I'm one of the few Patrick supporters. Granted, he's useless (he didn't need to be) but I like him, maybe it's because of Brody. Anyway ... I HATE another WTD storyline! UGH!

It's obvious what will happen. Bo and Hope prepare to reconcile, Hope finds out she's pregnant, "realizes" it's Patricks, and either lies to Bo, or tells him and they break up again over it. Cue another six months of angst ... probably a marriage, and then the truth comes out. Now, that's how JER would write it. LOL. Let's see how Hogan deals with it, but I can see him doing the same thing, frankly.

That would be a stretch considering Hope has almost hated Bo's guts and wouldn't even let him touch her until just recently..

KristianFan: I think it has to do with the fact that some "Days" fans (and soap fans in general) believe it's a mortal sin to have a non-supercouple (or the perceived 'anti-couple) share a child. To their credit, it's something of a soap opera rule. Take "Passions" for example: JER can say it's a twist all he likes, but there is a REASON he is (and surely knew he would be) making Little Ethan, Ethan and Theresa's son, just like there's a reason Ethan and Gwen can never have children together, and even if they do somehow get pregnant (as some out-there rumors suggest may be happening), something bad will happen. That's because they're not the rooting couple. And for some reason, some soaps follow that trend. Giving babies only to the rooting couple. If this baby IS patrick's, with JER writing, I would expect him to kill it or have Hope miscarriage. But with the new writers, who knows?

I hope Hope miscarries and/or dies. Because I'm cruel, and because I would absolutely love to see the fallout.

If Hope were to live- Alfonso proved she could kick ass at the beginning of the year, and I would like to see that again towards the end of the year, if for no other reason than to show people what Days actors can do when called upon.

If Hope were to die, it would free up the budget and the canvas. It could resonate with Hope's history (her mother got struck by a car pushing Hope's carriage out of the way, didn't she?). And it could provide some outstanding material for the other actors on the show.

I guess I'm riled up about it because it isn't the story we were promised. They split up Bo and Hope by killing off Zach, just as an excuse to bring Patrick into Hope's life. (If you think I'm piling on Days, naa. Y&R did the same thing with Nick/Phyllis/Sharon when they killed off Cassie.) This story could have had much more life to it, more promise, and instead I feel like the viewers were handed a bag of fertilizer.

Wonder if that was what tipped Corday's mind in the direction of change. Guess we'll never know.

      I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.

      CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.

       Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

      Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.

      Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.

      Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.

      A--I wish someone would post a better vid of the entire ball, as it must be out there. And B--nope. Evie is only in a small segment of the ball with Phillip, Rick and Mindy. She doesn't dance at all. Ross dances with Helena and Amanda. I'm not even sure why Evie is at the ball---Vanessa heartily disliked her. I did see that Billy actually asked Henry to introduce him to Vanessa, which I hadn't realized.

      Honestly, they should've ordered more of 2000 Malibu Road for the 1992-93 midseason and aired it when Knots went on a break. That was probably their best shot.    Then of course they fumbled Central Park West by airing it in the 9PM slot instead of a 10PM slot where it would've been away from the Fox dramas. CPW got its best rating by airing randomly on a Sunday and when it was taken off the air for a "re-tooling", Party of Five's ratings actually had a spike, so clearly they were feeding off each other. But being a smaller network focused on a certain demographic, Fox could afford to be patient Party of Five, CBS couldn't...
