Be glad you muted it. Dr Obrecht was suddenly deserving to be family again. Willow was literally “Dr. Obr...Aunt Liesl!”🙄

The way Teri fetishized her daughter’s looks were gross. If Brooke hadn’t been an attractive baby or child, she probably would have been pawned off and raised by other friends and family while Teri went out bar hopping.

🙄It was very stupid and lame. Carly has never been essential to any Nurses Ball. The single reason we had those scenes is to set up evil Nina being blamed, tarred, and feathered when brave heroine Carly🤢 along with Drew are inevitably turned in (by a surprise person) and arrested.

Thank you. That was such a scripted dramatic fake end to the episode. How did more people not see through that??

I don't think Kenya sees Brooklyn as any extension of herself at all. She saw her as what she thought was a loving result of a relationship hence naming her Brooklyn (where her parents met), & honoring her grandmother hence naming her Doris. Wondering did the intimacy has gone since Brooklyn's birth, in no way means the baby is some target of hatred for her now. Kenya did have a loving upbringing complete with extended family & siblings. She wasn't raised by rabid wolves.

Other than their parents & that one trip to Roloff farm, I'm not sure how much exposure to other fellow Little People Will & Zoe have had. So far the focus has been ethnic involvement. Bill & Jen seem....a little alergic to the words Little People. Sure you could argue Little is in the the name of the show, but The Skeletal Dysplasia Couple just doesn't have marketable appeal lol.

Up until 2016, when David & his wife's 1st son was born, Will & Zoe were the only grandchildren. However, In that moment I think Judy was just remembering her lingering fears over her daughter's road to motherhood. Judy has had concerns most of Jen's adult life over if she would ever create the family she (Jen) desired.

I have been wondering why we never saw much if any of Terra's home life with the kids & Joe. It was always Terra out doing/going/screaming/arguing..but never any cute moments with either of the babies, just Terra screaming at Joe & her crying over the cancer scare.

I believe Sam's birth year/month is May 1980 (per storyline), making her 37 this year. Nik is probably....2/3 years younger.

Oddly, I found myself at different points in the episode going...these folks just had two major events going on (a death and a birth practically the same night), and no one is really reacting to them. Wouldn't Rhonda's death and the way she died, plus the birth of the Lyon baby with his ex/now new wife be big news for the media & tabloids? Instead of the family drama, & Rhonda's funeral, Lucious is "taking over Times Square & the jumbotron?? Even if they hold the funeral for episode 2, there should have been more reaction at least to her falling to her death. Andre's guilt was a foregone conclusion.

Key & Peele just should have hosted...or whatever they were doing at that desk as themselves. That weird twitter hashtaggy hipster comedy routine they kept up all night was grating.

All of the above scenes came off as clunky & unrealistic even in soapdom. A young woman with a job & is presumably at the beginning of her career isn't staying in town to "get to know" & "hang" with a middle schooler. Not with social media options out the ass these days. Had she went back to Atlanta & in a few weeks/months lost her job, and got invited back sure. Jax...really Jax...or should I say writers/blocking notes.Everyone knows when you are the fall guy/villain you go around the corner to take the phone call, not mere inches away. And I guess Morgan leaving his personal belongings randomly in the hallway was the only way Ava could take a few of his pills. I know this is Morgan and all, but if your prescribed meds are low...how about just refill it.... We were supposed to see that as an OMG AVA! moment, but the whole scenario is dumb.

That would be one hell of a story, but it seems like the writers and network want us to continue seeing Sonny as a still fertile baby-making stud muffin romantic lead. Why they aren't ready for him to go full (more than one grandchild) grandpa just yet, idk, why not, with three grown kids it happens. Plus, I don't think at this point Maurice would mind. I swear the true drama and character driven aspects of these stories get left by the wayside. This show in particular goes out of its way to avoid them. It was completely cringe worthy when Carly was all "you settled for Julian (paraphrasing) because you couldn't have Sonny." I guess the entire point of the interaction was for Carly's little reaction there at the end, because honestly all Ava had to do was yes, go out and buy a temporary one at a big box store, or hell use Avery's old one. There was no reason it had to be the decorator's crib, or nothing at all. This show lives in a universe where options exist. Exactly, this story could have been wrapped up last damn fall, but I'm guessing they like the Sonny./Ava interaction so they keep this long dead story afloat with repetitive scenes and dialogue. It makes no sense why Avery isn't Morgan's daughter, that is a minefield of story. Imagine Morgan dealing with his bipolar disorder/new fatherhood & co-parenting with Ava/Sonny and Carly...being themselves/his general petulant assholery. That would actually add a new dimension to the Corinthos family that hasn't been there since...well since Ric showed up.

Sorry show, not even Anna will get me behind this push to think of Duke & Sonny as underdog victims of Carlos. She can wail and screech about poor fatherless Griffin & those pesky sekret blood capsules on Carlos's bullet proof vest, It's all falling on deaf ears.

Other than the writers and their fast paced piecemeal writing, what other litmus test are we using to measure this? Besides personal opinion on a prefered couple, all roads for Jason seemed to lead back to Sam. Wasn't there even his dreams during his last brain surgery where he pictured his life with Liz,Carly,and Sam? Each dream had different variables and outcomes between Jason and the women.
