BB: Brooke's Choice

The writer's will managed to drag this out for a few days. I assume she is going to choose Nick. Otherwise, what was the point of her conversation with him over dinner. If it was over, she wouldn't be giving him pointers on how to improve their relationship, right?

However, I really, really, really, really am hoping for a Ridge and Brooke reunion. Then again, maybe Brooke will surprise us all and say "I choose me" and state that she doesn't want to be with either of them, or anyone else, for the time being.

Then again, Jackie's accident (Is she dead?) will surely throw a wrench into whatever decision Brooke makes.

Blog Note: See Posts by Show

I upgraded to the Beta version of Blogger. One thing I am taking advantage of is the easy way to apply labels to the posts. Thus, in the posts you should see a show's acronomy (e.g. YR for the Young and the Restless). This acronym is also a hyperlink that will take you to a view of the blog with posts for that show.

I am in the process of updating all of the old posts (wow, 150!). But, the first 50 are completed. I hope you like this!

YR: Carmen Messedup

Well, I guess her name is really Carmen Mesta. But, she hs been getting on my nerves for a bit now. Who is she, as a contractor, to demand that Victoria fire Drucilla? Isn't Newman Ent her client? And, as a customer, always right?

Why doesn't she just call it a day and go home?
Well---maybe she will be calling it a day.

I always think that when one character has people coming at her from all sides and there are veiled threats, they are soon to be victim of a mystery.

Then, to add in when she inadvertantly received Jack's text message regarding Jabot--that just adds another possible suspect!

I won't be sad. Matter of fact, I think they should hold a parade for the perpitrator.

ATWT: At least 30 days until a Jack and Carly reunion

Well, Simon has managed to cover his butt (albeit a nice butt) for a bit in regards to his link to the loan shark. However, we can all forsee their will be trouble after his 30-day deadline has come and gone without repayment of the loan.

I can only assume it won't be until then (or--egads!--even later) that we will see a Carly and Jack reunion.

In the meantime, I am enjoying Carly's hesistancy at going forward with Simon. Her scene where she practices what she will say to surprise him when he returns to his hotel suite was cute.

BB: Thorne and Taylor

This storyline is so unbelievable. Who would get engaged, to their sister-in-law no less, a few months after their much-beloved wife dies in a tragic car accident? Add to this, the Taylor hysteric scenes and the storyline is unwatchable.

Am I really supposed to not fast-forward through Hunter Tylo's sceneray chewing on a daily basis? I am really not one to attack the actors, but the only thing worse than her acting is her ill-advised plastic surgery. (Which makes the characters just more buffoonish!) She was such a beautiful woman, you wonder why she felt the need for such surgery. And you wonder if she regrets it as much as we regret having to see it.

ATWT: Okay, I take it back!

Early last week, we had below freezing temps here in St. Louis--south of the fictional Oakdale, Illinois.
Then, at the end of the week, Buffalo received 24 inches of snow.

So, maybe the Ice Storm story wasn't completely far fetched.
