Yay... now there are 4 Triangles of Doom.
- Ridge, Brooke, and THoT
- Waffles, Hope, and Steffy
- Wyatt, Sally, and Flo
- Thomas, Crazy, and Batshit Insane (less of a Triangle than a full-on threesome)
Hope is 100% correct about Snuffy, but her desperation did not look good. Either you trust Waffles or he isn't the right one for you. I can't wait to see Snuffy deny this as the picture of her and Liam still hangs on the wall in the background.

Tariq is rapidly moving up the ranks to take the title of "most infuriating kid on TV" from that kid on The Strain.
By which I mean "needs a bullet in the head pronto" level.
That kid set off a nuclear bomb in NYC because he was mad at his father. Even Tariq isn't that stupid. Well... I know he's too stupid to get his hands on a nuclear weapon. Besides Tasha and Ghost would try to cover it up anyway. Just go to the cops and tell them you didn't do it.

How many people must die or have their lives ruined over Tariq's stupid ass? The craziest part is James and Tasha know he's not worth a damn, but will do anything and everything to save his dumb ass. It's not even parental love... it's their guilt over Raina's death or having set a bad example for the idiot.
Ghost and Tommy have amazing luck in that they keep choosing to commit crimes in buildings that have no video of the people walking in and out of them.
Tommy deserves his revenge. I hereby offer up Tariq. Drop him off of the Empire State Building ass first onto the world's biggest foot.

The odds of Tariq being killed by a rival dealer are pretty good.
The odds of Tariq being killed by open cellar doors in a NYC street are pretty good. Are we really supposed to believe that someone this dumb is an aspiring kingpin? The only people who can't see through his nonsense or trick him easily are his parents and Tommy. Oh and the cops.
When Ghost held the gun to Tariq's head and Tommy held him over the side of the building, it moved. If this jackass survives this season and is in any way a part of a spin-off, I want Power removed from my brain "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"-style.

I know it's a soap so they do redemption in different ways, but it has been way to quick for Thomas and Flo.
One of my major problems with the SL was that you could see the FLO-demption coming a mile away and that she was never going to pay any real price for her actions. Meanwhile, the black characters are fired, dead, or on the lam. I don't care how many organs she gives Katie... I'm still going to hate her. And now that Wyatt will somehow forgive her for niece-napping, I can hate him too.
BTW, I would never listen to a doctor who got her head caught in a headboard once.

I watched the new special early using the OnDemand thing. I fast forwarded through a lot of it. It was mostly boring, but also a little disturbing. Colin is never mentioned at all. It's like he doesn't exist. Hannah is mentioned, but the way Kate says it is just to ramp up the drama. She could have just said "Hannah chose to live with her dad for now. Life with divorced families it complicated." And left it at that. Instead we get the weird half reference.
I watched "The Twins Going to College" special last night and the omission of Colin is glaring. I actually came on this board for the sole purpose of figuring out what happened to him. They literally never mentioned him once. I thought I skipped something. The situation with Hannah is mentioned as an aside almost like she was staying with her dad just for the weekend or something. (Only towards the end do the viewers get the "people keep leaving this house" line from Kate.) I know these reality shows are mostly B.S., but I do think it would be better to share truthfully what has happened with the 2 kids who aren't there. But that would involve mentioning Jon's name on air which apparently Kate and TLC would rather die than do. At least I found out here that Colin isn't dead or something.
I hope for all of everyone's sake they're happy and productive. Best of luck to the twins in college.

Quinn's intense/borderline irrational dislike of Sally resuscitates one of my least favorite tropes of soap operas... parent who is WAY too involved in their kid's life. She just sounds like a lunatic right now. How could Wyatt ever show his face around his brother if he's parading around the baby-napper on his arm? Think Quinn.
Is it possible we can wrap up the Flo saves Katie/rehabilitates her image with Logans/gets back with Wyatt storyline in 5 eps next week? I can't possibly watch a month of that nonsense. TBH, I can't watch 1 ep of it.

The line that made the entire ep for me was when they were trying to figure out who Pops was engaged to and Diane said,
"I bet it's one of those twins Zoey hangs out with."
The Junior storyline being over already is corny.

So now I have to root for Vincent and Benny? Hell, I'd even let them bring back Kanan for the sole purpose of keeping Ghost and Tommy from getting that $2 million.
RIP Proctor. Jerry Ferrara was a great addition to the show.
Tommy is killing everyone under the sun, but Tasha can't mention that idiot running a protection racket? I would've laughed in that guy's face. Tommy has his issues, but he would've dealt with that problem quickly.

Dude... she didn't tell you that your brother's child was still alive while watching Hope lose her mind and their marriage disintegrate. Just thinking about Flo for a second is enough for Sally to drop-kick his ass. I've always liked Wyatt, but that's pretty much done. I don't expect any better from Quinn and Shauna's dumb asses, but Wyatt should know better.
Who's idea was those ridiculous looking fake photos of Wyatt and Flo?

Ewww... that spoiler is greasy and gross. That girl would have to have literally zero respect for herself.
Speaking of greasy and gross (and exponentially worse), for some reason, Brooke and Oliver having sex popped into my mind. That was completely and utterly insane. Does anyone remember what their excuse were again? Was it just the costume?

If/when Wyatt hurts Sally, I'm going to whip his fictional ass. Sally looked good today... I would've been begging her to move back in too as ridiculous as Wyatt sounded.
The idea of Flo and Thomas avoiding jail time is ridiculous, although totally expected in the case of Flo. The show didn't even give Thomas the bullcrap 4-6 months (in television time) that Adam or Victor would get on Y & R before some illness/beating "necessitated" their release. That being said, I'm not surprised that Ridge would do something to keep his child out of jail. Brooke would do the same damn thing. I don't recall her advocating any jail time when Rick let off that gunshot at FC post CaRidge affair. She's totally entitled to her feelings and is pretty much accurate as it pertains to Thomas staying in the house or being allowed to raise Douglas in the near term in light of his recent actions. But to think Ridge is going to let Thomas sit in jail is foolish. What's also foolish (at the very least, brain dead at worst) is Ridge thinking Thomas can just plop right back into that house.
Hopefully, $Bill and Justin can put a foot in Thomas' ass over Emma's death with some new/old evidence.

Too much 'Reek, too much 'Tasha, and too much Tate in the ep for me. Hopefully the final scene of the series will be the white roommate smothering 'Reek with a pillow in his sleep.
A major drug kingpin was able to escape custody after the assassination attempt of a federal witness that led to the death of numerous federal agents? Sure.
Dre's a worse father than Ghost... that ain't easy to do.

The Ridge and Thomas scenes today were surprisingly well done and well acted.
So Lope already forgot that he was banging What's Her Face just 2 short weeks ago?
I'm thisclose to reaching my limit on Brooke/Logan Girls (which apparently includes Liam)/Bill conversations about "Not pushing Thomas off the cliff on purpose, but if I did he deserved it".

Honestly I don't care what happens from this point on as long as Tariq dies. He might be the most annoying television character in history. He reminds me of an old Earthquake joke... "Abortion should be legal until a kid a 7 years old so you can see how they're turning out." I'm willing to extend that until whatever age Tariq is. And this lil' fool dissed Bone Thugz.
Wow... did not foresee Angela dying. The actress who plays her sister was excellent.
Tasha's mom is ice cold. "What did you expect?" Ouch.
I think the only person I like on the show right now is Proctor. However, Ghost probably should've killed him 3 or 4 times already.

Douglas was looking creepy too. I sort've expected Amelia to say, "Look at me Douglas! It's all for you!" before she jumped off a roof.

Xander is so completely spineless that I can't wait until he slithers off of the screen. He's not to blame for this fiasco in any way and he should've told Ridge to kiss his "whole asshole". Why is he letting himself get lumped in with everyone else or saying anything other than Thomas prevented him from telling the truth with what he felt were serious threats of reprisal, perhaps even violence?
Jail!?! Go find your criminal son first you greasy bastard.

Hope was trying her best to be sympathetic. Steffy should be allowed some room to attempt to process this, even if that includes a few asinine, ill-fated suggestions. However, Brooke isn't helping at all when she voices her Hope-Liam thoughts. When Ridge finally pulls his head out of his ass in regards to Thomas (and wonders about Douglas' safety), he'll be fine too.

The majority of Michael fans thought Michael coming back was the sure sign the show is going in a certain direction they preferred, which was completely incorrect because of that fanbase's confirmation bias. For long stretches of season 5 Michael fans actually were convinced Jane would remarry Michael in the show finale, and that Rafael would marry Petra! We have those kind of specs on this very board, even.
That vocal minority of fans just refused to see the truth, and consistently ignored all signs in-show pointing towards the endgame. And also ignored the showrunner's insistence that this show is not only homage to telenovelas but is telenovela, and there's going to be as many tropes as possible. The fact that Michael fans were mad he was brought back from the dead at all and was given a happy ending convinces me that only thing people are angry about is that he didn't end up with Jane. Alas, Jennie Urman made a decision of bringing Michael from the dead in season 3 (!) and made Jafael the show's endgame before the pilot (!), I don't think she planned that a part of the fanbase would be experiencing cognitive dissonance because they had a different interpretation of the show than its creator had.
I actually disagree about the amnesia and bringing character from the dead tropes were bad writing decisions this season. I never cared about Michael but I always cared about the journey Jane was forced to go because of it. She lived through hell after his death, his mother blamed her consistently for that, she lived with guilt and shame (misplaced, of course) and grief, she was profoundly changed by that loss that Rose put her through. It was only fair to Jane and Rafael that Michael was brought back, so his image would stop being an albatross across her neck, and they part ways amicably and to their own soulmates.
Let me preface my comments by saying, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but...
You have no clue whether the people who liked Jane and Michael represent a "minority" or majority of the fans. There's no way to quantify that even if a poll was taken, online or otherwise. To say that implies a bias on your part.
As upset as some fans were when Michael was killed off, the show did an excellent job of showing Jane's lengthy grieving process even with the time jump. I think those people were mostly okay with the way things were turning out, even if that meant Jane and Rafael ending up together. However, to bring back Michael solely as a plot twist and not the actual character the show fleshed out who was loved by Jane AND her entire family did a major disservice to him and the storyline. For example, Xo and Rogelio loved Michael. After he returned, he was basically "That Dude Over There" to them. That's not giving such an important character the respect he deserved and I kinda understand why. It wasn't him. I never for one second bought the idea that Jane was having feelings for him (even during the Montana trip) because that wasn't Michael. It was Jason. It was plot-driven nonsense. That's why I think some people (myself included) feel like they shouldn't have even bothered bringing him back. Michael didn't get a happy ending with Charlie... the plot-driven replacement with Michael's face named Jason did. Even if the creator intended to have Jane and Rafael together from the series' inception, I'm not sure how she could be so blind to some fans' issues with the return of "Michael". It was hollow and denigrated the real love that had existed between Jane and Michael. It was completely unnecessary.

No wonder the narrator has been team Raf/Jane for most of the show, and there were zero Michael references in the episode, despite all the talk of wedding and him being Jane's first husband,! Although I do feel weird having him referred to as the Latin Lover narrator this whole time when he has been cute little Mateo for as long as we have known him!
While this season has been rather frustrating to me with how the resurrection of Michael was handled and to me, botched, I still loved this show and I thought this was a great way to wrap things up.
I loved the final 2 eps and the show overall, but the ending with no Michael as well as the (rare) poor job of how they included Michael in the final season stuck out to me. If he wasn't going to be himself, they shouldn't have even bothered. In addition, he was way too important to the story overall to not merit a mention or a cameo in the finale. He was a part of their family for so long and it ended as if he never existed. Maybe that's a result of the time jump, but it's still seems like an empty place at the table.
I loved the Mateo/Latin Lover Narrator reveal.
I'll truly miss the show, the writing, and the great cast of actors that I'd never seen before.

So the kid spilled the beans...
Glad to see Emma's death and all 9,000 excruciating Zoe and Xander scenes added up to absolutely nothing.

All I'm saying is when Douglas went to clean up his room, he started looking back like , "This motherfucka is crazy. Let me not be stupid like Xander and completely turn my back to him." Or perhaps I was imagining that.

I thought it was an excellent episode. Jane and the Twins as well as all things Rogelio were great.
The "scar" story should be Jaime Camil's Emmy entry clip. Or at least Teen Choice Award entry clip.

S06.E09: Scorched Earth
in Power
If anyone knows the look of a bullshit liar lying, it's Tariq.
The 2nd Ghost/Tasha scene was crazy.
All these people dying and yet Tariq is still alive? I really, REALLY hate this freakin' kid now.
Benny tried to get cute and it didn't work out for him. Elisa Marie is really fucked now. Although a Power spin-off of her growing up to become a hitwoman who kills Tariq could pique my interest. Nah... I want him dead now.
Oh Saxe... when given a chance of doing the right thing and the stupid thing, he's always chooses stupid.
Dre is just a damn cockroach now, huh?
