Timmy,

Your statement here makes me wonder whether it could be the writers more
than the actors.  I mean, think about this idea.....the actors could be so
disappointed in their story lines that they just don't care and don't put
anything into their part.  Suddenly they're given a good story line (one
they can actually get into) and walla, a sudden change in acting.  Does
this sound like it could be feasible?

Wow Timmy, you cooked dinner and didn't give all of us an invitation.  My
feelings are hurt :-(

  He's probably supposed to be in shock.  A lot of people who are in shock
  act as if nothing has happened.  Since John is such an emotional guy he
  probably doesn't want to upset her any more either.  JAT (Just a thought)

>the type to hold it all in and try to mask his feelings.  Anyway, that's
>how I've always thought the character was written.  I was more disappointed

  Tim, now you've been reading this net long enough to know about the
  consistency factor and Dool.

>with Bo.  No surprise there.  He was better than Bo is typically, but still
>the worst of the bunch.  I really didn't like the scenes with Bo and Carly.

  Do any scenes with Bo and Carly ever feel real?  I don't think so.  They all
  seem very very extremely fake to me.

>They didn't feel real at all.   I look forward to Victor finding out.  I

  Hmmmmmm, does this mean that Bo is going to pull Vic's acting down?  That
  usually seems to be the case.  Vic will probably bring Bo up a little bit
  but, at what risk?

>Enough about my sobbing.

No, no, sob away.

What?  I am NOT looking forward to Carly being on my TV screen.  Please
tell me that is what you meant to say.  Come one Timmy, don't jump ship
on us now.  Wait a minute.....could this mean that maybe it is time for
me to start setting my VCR again?  I don't wanna be disappointed again.

Thanks Timmy
