Maybe I'm crazy, and not "into" the Soap scene the way I should be; but, I need to comment on a few things, and say stuff I haven't seen mentioned by others. I'm old, I've watched Soaps for more than 45 years; so, I think I've earned my right to go off the "beaten path"!!!
1. What's with all the chocolate brown? It's like somebody is saving money with a boring, almost nauseatingly-sweet pallate that makes me think I'm watching TV through a Dove chocolate filter! Not all your actors look good in brown...and with the alleged wealth of your characters, you'd think they could hire better decorators and fashion consultants who know how to use color???
I get it that costumes shouldn't "clash;" but, this is ridiculous!
2. HELLOOOOOOOOO????? It's WINTER!!!! Yes, in Pennsylvania, tooooooooo!!!! So, what's with the sleeveless cocktail dresses all day, every day??? Give us a break! The ladies would look just as good in some long sleeves, sweaters, and COATS, especially for when they go outside!
3. I love Susan Lucci. She was my reason for tuning in. But, she's MY AGE, and maybe older. Please stop trying to have her look, move, dress and talk like a twenty-something. I keep wanting to write her a fan letter asking what meds she uses for the arthritis, and wouldn't she appreciate a day in jeans and sneakers, instead of clicking all over the set, trying to keep up with the ingenues? A little more dignity for this lovely, mature woman, please! Otherwise, she's going to become a sad, pathetic figure.
4. Yes. I, too, miss Zack. But, I want him reunited with the REAL love of his life: MARIA, MARIA, MARIA, MARIA... OOPS! Wrong musical.... Sorry, Kendall... There was a chemistry when Zack and Maria locked eyes onscreen that I NEVER saw between you and Zack, or any other Soap couple, for that matter. Zack and Kendall? Too much Daddy-complex goin' on, there. Maria and Zack? Ageless, it's-written- in-the-stars lovers...If Eva LaRue ever gets tired of forensic science, bring her and Zack back, first class, on the same flight. BTW...we ALL know Zack faked his own death, and parachuted out at the last moment, to get the heat off his family and out of harm's way.... NO WAY the writers would be stupid enough to terminate his character... Nuh uh... And, anyway, it's HIS turn to come back from the dead....

We get the Hubbards this week YAY!!! Here's hoping they are showcased for more than a mere split second.

I was beyond happy to see Randi having a voice at Fusion and calling Madison out on her STUPIDITY!!

If if she isn't on screen, I get to see that drop dead gorgeous face in the Fusion scenes. Mrs. Franklin Hubbard has come into her own. Now it's time for her and hubby to be front and center in a SL of THEIR OWN!!!!

Can AMC cut their losses already and just do whatever they have to do to get Thorsten Kaye back as Zach Slater?? Please?? I'm reduced to BEGGING!!

As for Ryan . . . I can't even comment on him w/o wanting to vomit!!

I think Randi likes being involved in the decison-making aspect of the business just as much as she enjoys being "The Face of Fusion!" For So long she was Never allowed to voice her concerns b/c she was controlled by someone and Now, people are actually looking to her for opinions, suggestions, etc... and considering that she started out as just a receptionist and answering the phones, Randi has truly come a Long way! I was happy to see her in that capacity and on Equal territory with the rest of the Fusion crew. It was also nice to see her beautiful face plastered all over the Fusion office as well. GO RANDI!!!

I have always liked Annie sorry that she's leaving. This week was a great story for her. But, It pains me to think this smart conneving and really a strong willed person can be took down again by a man. I don't watch this much anymore but I know I'm not liking the storyline of Kendell. Why does she have to be sick. I'm tired of all the down drama of this show. Want some good times to come.

I was pretty unimpressed with the show this week. Oh, who am I kidding? I've been pretty unimpressed for a long time. Especially with Ryan being presented as a hero, when most people think he is an abusive, self-satisfied, thieving git.

There hasn't been a real man on the show since Zach "died," and all these attempts to "replace" him with inferior characters isn't bringing people in. AMC, please fix this miserable mistake.

WTH? Moment. Ryan Lavery is becoming the Sonny Corinthos of PV. Too many babies by too many different women. But multiple baby-mamas is not the real problem with Ryan learning about Madison's pregnancy. While Cameron Mathison is great with kid actors, the character of Ryan Lavery is not good father material. His decision to lay claim on Kendall's womb before Spike's birth comes to mind as one of his less than stellar fatherly moments. Instead of spending time with his son, who has loss his real father figure, Ryan tries to kill David. Nothing like being a good role model to your son.
The revolving door of potential step-mommas for Emma is mind-boggling. Does he have the golden arches above his headboard? Sorry, but Madison is far better raising her child outside the control of Ryan Lavery. Besides, Ryan will tire of being baby-daddy to Madison's baby soon enough. His attention span is always fleeting when it comes to his kids.

I would prefer making up my own mind about characters than being told about them. Kendall, while grieving for the love of her life, is being put in contrived situations to further the writers' agenda. She and Griffin have nothing in common and their interactions are forced.
Alicia Minshew needs a story worthy of her talents. Please allow Kendall to be on the trail of reuniting with her husband, Zach Slater. Thorsten Kaye must return, giving the show a jolt of energy!

Alicia Minshew's acting preferences remain true to character, continuing to grieve her husband. Kendall deserves so much better than constantly using her health issues to push interactions with a lesser character. The writing has become transparent. Please bring Thorsten Kaye, Zach Slater and Zendall back!

Really???? Ryan would respect Madison's space? Have you guys ever actually watched the show? Do you remember how Ryan constantly barged into Zendall's home without even knocking all in the name of "fatherhood" and how he frequently tried to steal Kendall from Zach even when she was on her deathbed? Have you noticed how his nose is in everybody's business at all times? Ryan is not good guy. He is not morally responsible. Your logic is not logic--it's delusion.
