BB: A Gut Feeling about this In-Vitro Thing

First, how weird is it that Bridget is the doctor for Nick and Taylor's attempt to have a child? She isn't even an OB-GYN, let alone a fertility specialist.

But, wouldn't it be a weird twist if Bridget was the secret egg donor for the baby? She, too, has wanted to give Nick a child so it is in the realm of possibility.

I have a gut feeling this is where we are going. IF not, it should be as it would really add a twist to the "women in love with Nick" story.

Passions saved by DirecTV

According to TV Guide, DirecTV will include new, original episodes of Passions on its original programming channel (Channel 101 for my fellow DirecTVers).
This is good news not only for Passions fans but for all soap fans. No longer should we worry about our soaps' demise, if cable/satellite outlets are willing to pickup the production.

ATWT: Hank and Skank

If I post about Katie, I guess I should post about Henry. I love Henry (hey, everybody loves Henry). I am happy that Henry's portrayer, Trent Dawson, is getting the well-deserved air time. And I may be in the minority, but I hate the Henry and Vienna pairing.

It seems so contrived. It was like "instant couple, just add sex". And, it seems to be only about sex with these two. When Vienna proposed to Henry, the reasoning behind her wanting marriage was all based on Henry's skills in the bedroom. And, she isn't shy about claiming how many men she had to compare Henry to come to this conclusion.

There is no romance. There wasn't any drama (at least not until Katie and Brad poked into it). What makes me want to invest in this couple?

I want Henry with a nice girl. Maybe some long-lost Snyder cousin. Someone who....well, maybe the writers can hire me and I can give them the whole details on what would make a good Henry relationship and storyline.

ATWT: K-K-K-Katie flirting with T-T-T-Trouble

It wasn't that long ago, that Katie was reviled by ATWT viewers for her shabby treatment of Henry. I mean, everyone loves Henry.

Now, Terri Colombino's Katie is being thrust into another storyline that will not set well with fans--the blossoming romance between her and Jack. There is a lot of things you can do on ATWT, but mess with Carly/Jack is not one of them. I remember (with much sorrow) the hate mail, including death threats, that were heaped upon Sarah Brown's when Julia went after an amnesiac Jack. I hope that Ms. Colombino is not subjected to the same.

That said, Katie stay away from Jack! Of course, the viewer knows that Carly's portrayer, Maura West, was away on maternity leave and would return. The characters of Jack and Katie do not know what we know.
