peachmangosteen June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 (edited) This episode was a mess and actively disgusting in a lot of ways but ngl I enjoyed some of it. Clearly I've lost my mind. I still like Nik/Ava with Temp!Nik tbh. I actually like Temp!Nik. He's nothing like real Nik but whatever real Nik blows now anyway. Everything, every single thing, having to do with Nina today was horrible. HORRIBLE. I can't. This needs to stop. Get rid of her already PLEASE! I begrudgingly liked the Franco/Liz scenes from Monday but today was gross. Just no. Everyone has already covered why the scenes were the worst so I won't repeat it. I fast forwarded everything Jason/Sam again because they're just soooo boring. I'd rather be grossed out or outraged then falling asleep. I also fast forwarded the Kiki/Morgan scenes. Mostly because Morgan's hair scares me. I can't believe they're still trying to sell Morgan/Kiki as some grand romance. It's just laughable and enraging.

fishcakes June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Well, that was a disgusting hour of television. Mainly because of all the Franco. Nina's Franco fantasy where Franco can't believe it's not butter. Franco making toast. Franco having a sad. Franco kissing the town pariah who wasn't. Who's the babysitter watching Cam and Aiden upstairs? Is it Bobby Martin? Is he showing them his skis? I thought Morgan was surprisingly mature (!) when Dillon came back to the apartment. And Dillon was nice in offering to share that tiny cup of soup with him. So if we must do this triangle, and evidently we must, then so far, it's not so bad. New Nik sounds like Real Nik but looks like AJ so I find his scenes confusing. I do like him with Ava, and I liked TC with Ava too, but this storyline is boring. 11 Link to comment
TwistedandBored June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 That was an episode of GH. I like Jasam but they need to give them more time and give their story real stakes. Right now, they are just walking around and there is no sense of urgency. The times Jasam had adventure there was always some urgency to the story. Someone chasing them such as Jerry/police. Right now, I think they too forgot why they started this. All they need to do is snap a picture/video of Nik and send it to Jordan. Adventure over. If they want to save Nik, they can do it after. Although, I wish they wouldn't try to save that idiot. As for Liz and Franco. Ugh! I mean I feel sorry for those Liz fans who don't want her with Franco. However, those fans are being overshadowed by other Liz fans who are desperate for Liz to get with anyone. Literally, any guy that smiles at Liz, those fans try to pair her up with him. Next up for Liz, a mop with a wig. Never mind, she is dating one already. Kiki and Dillon bore me but they are much better than Morgan and Kiki. So, hopefully, this triangle no one wants will end soon. 8 Link to comment
dubbel zout June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Ugh, this show. Nina's sex fantasy with Franco caused me intense secondhand embarrassment (mostly for RoHo and that hair! Good lord, that hair); Ava's "caper" is duller than dull; Maxie talking to Nina about sex toys was cringe-worthy. Poor Jar of Mayo. He's probably better off without Lauren, since Morgan will always be around. "I was a mobster, not a cat burglar. But I do know a little something about getting out of jams like this." Then why all the whining earlier, Ava? 6 Link to comment
P3pp3rb1rd June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Maxie, that was TMI about how familiar you are with sex toys. (She's never seen so many options for one). The fact that the company had been aggressively soliciting Crimson to advertise it proves my point that the mag is getting a certain reputation. Black rage that Freako was getting such a tongue bath from Neener AND Liez in one episode. Did Liez actually repeat that old excuse that his tumah made him a bad boy serial killer, but now he's all better? Show is punking us, People. I can't even look at Freako as a man, and he certainly does not have a special way with children. If Liez lets her boys pal around with Freako, I hope she pays dearly. I keep feeling this eerie Michael Jackson vibe between Freako and Jake, and it's real, real, uncomfortable. 4 Link to comment
P3pp3rb1rd June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 In the previews, we finally catch a glimpse of Margarethe, the other hench person who is after the valuable vase. What's this? Is the Amazon Margarethe a cameo appearance of Tony Geary in a blond wig? Link to comment
Bill C. June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I really think I would have liked to see TC and MW dealing with Evil Fop Huxley...nothing against Alternate Universe Justin Hartley, er, Nick Stabile, but it certainly seemed like TC was clicking a little bit more with MW than he is/was so far. That said, I'm still so ridiculously over the Weeping Naiad. I need someone to get punched in the damn face. Preferably Huxley. Or this Margarethe. That said, after Prince Eric (or, as my brain inexplicably went to, Guybrush Threepwood) burst into Nina's dream...let alone Maxie introducing Nina to sex toys (which in hindsight actually makes a certain sense, and even was handled relatively gently--but did we really need to see it?) nearly everything else was almost refreshingly sane. Even Nina's mini-meltdown over companionship. Even, somewhat, Franco and Liz...at least up until Liz said Quote "..and you only occasionally give me the creeps these days." And then he kissed her, and damn if even BH's country-saving hair (Megan Ward still holds the patent on world-saving hair...sorry, Becky) couldn't stop it from imploding like the helicopter in The Matrix. This is being handled better than Billy and Phyllis over on Y&R, dare I say it, but it's still firmly in the region of legally acceptable ew. 7 Link to comment

mybabyaidan June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I laughed when Jason called Sam out for her heels. I felt like he was speaking for everyone here. I did like his reactions in the background when Sam said "umbrella". I hope it's at least raining in London, for that to make any sense. Not even going to comment on the grossness that is Liz and Franco. How is that a slow build? In ONE episode she tells him he only occasionally creeps her out, and 5 seconds later is kissing him?

P3pp3rb1rd June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 (edited) So ailing Kiki has presumably passed her cold to Morgan and to Dillon. I just hope that Dillon sneezes violently on Tracy and she upbraids the girl. Kiki, get your Vicks and go to bed. The guys can give you backrubs and footrubs and spoon feed you soup. All that attention will make up for suffering the cold. If all else fails to make you feel better, Maxie has some advice about toys. Edited June 23, 2016 by P3pp3rb1rd 1 Link to comment
ciarra June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 Even after all Nik has done, I kind of felt sorry for him being stuck with Ava. When he wrapped his arm around Ava, it was as squicky as his "romance" with Katherine. Hopefully there will be a parapet in Ava's future. 3 Link to comment

Badsamaritan June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 WHY did they have Freaco lookin like Little Lord Fauntleroy in Ninugh's 'fantasy'?? Why did they even have to give her a fantasy? And if they did, how come it couldn't have been Curtis, considering she had JUST been eye fucking the fuck outta him? Honestly, that's not a bad idea - have all the grown women of the show have some kind of fantasy with Curtis as the star. Now I'd watch that shit all day, e'ry day. Liez and the serial killing, baby snatching, sexual predator's kiss looked like the driest of the dry land in the Sahara. Hey, maybe this pairing, spawned as it is from the very depths of Hell, will finally be Uncle Frank's undoing. I just can't imagine the Mouse House wanting to be branded with this kind of fuckery from their only daytime soap opera.

LeftPhalange June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 (edited) So Liez cares so little about her non-DNAJ kids that she has to get a sitter to watch them even though she was at home. SMH. I guess being Freako's #1 cheerleader and sticking her tongue down his throat is more important. Also, why does DNAJ have Freako's number? Also also, why does 23 year old Cam need a babysitter?

TeeVee329 June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 If anyone's trapped upstairs, it's Cameron and Aiden. And if they had to contrive a reason for Cameron and Aiden to be off-screen, why not say they're having a Skype call with Lucky and Jake came down because he was hungry? Answer - because all other father/father figures have to look shit next to the SERIAL KILLER. 8 Link to comment
Oracle42 June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I think it could've made sense to hire a sitter during the move. Liz has 3 (eternally) young children and a move can be chaotic. But it looked like she was already completely moved in and unpacked, so.... keeping Adorable!formerlykidnapped!Aiden out of sight in favor of Jake doesn't make Liz/Franco less of an issue. Franco was so obsessed with Jason that he pretended to be his twin, facilitated the rape of his nephew, terrorized his friends and sexually assaulted Jason's wife while they were on their honeymoon. There's no way Liz should be okay with Franco's interest in her son -especially since the only one of her children he's determined to spend time with is her son with Jason 8 Link to comment

Cheyanne11 June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 Someone said a couple days ago that TempNik would've made a great AJ recast and now all I see when I look at him is AJ. It's totally taking me out of the scenes. I will say I think Maura West is giving her all and I enjoy some of the comedic aspects she's bringing to her scenes. However, the storyline is dumb and we're all just waiting for Jason and Sam to get to the page in their "Build Your Own Adventure" book where it says "and now you stumble upon a secluded British manor.
