  Okay, am I imagining things or was there a bit of Twin Peaks
  moodiness to some of the scenes with McCabe on Wednesday.  Like
  when he was in the hotel room with the chalkboard going over 
  the suspects with Winston (the dog)?  The background music really
  smacked of Badalamenti.  Okay, maybe it's just me.

  Loved Ted teaching Angela to eat with silverware.  
  
  Julia and Mason did it again, they had me in tears.  Do you suppose
  the writers finally got a clue and decided that they had two very
  talented and popular performers so they decided to give them some
  air time?

  Dreyfuss and Rosie are still with us - YES!!!!!!

  Is anyone else out there ff'ing through Ken and Barbie and Sophia?

  Now, judging from the posts I just read I count two more Connor
  converts - Joyce and Pat.  It was the dog, wasn't it?  How can you
  resist a man with eyes like those and talks to his dog like the dog
  was human?

  One complaint, though, what are they doing to Cruz?  It's bad enough
  we have to lose him but does he have to leave on such a negative note?
  I just don't see how they can pull this one out before his last air date.

  Was there just a little chemistry between Micah and Jodie?  When he finally
  told her off and then told her to "Come" (and she did) there was a very
  mischievious smile on his face.
  
  Well, I think that just about covers everything for the time being..

I've been lurking for several months now and decided to finally give
posting a try. But, this makes it doubly difficult since I'm trying
to respond to a post and don't have a clue what I'm doing. Well here 
goes...

>How many other bombs/explosions can you remember on the show? 
>The only other one I remember was a bomb placed in the basement
>of the towers by Gary and/or Neil (maybe Billy should consider
>getting bomb insurance?)

The bombs I remember from the past are...

1) The bomb that Phillip hired someone to set in order to hurt/kill 
   Lujack but instead Beth was the one who got caught in the explosion
   and lost her sight (this was back when Phillip was going thru one
   of his ruthless periods).

2) The bomb set by Susan Piper (or one of her henchmen) that killed 
   Hillary Bauer (I forget where this occurred but my guess is at
   Annabelle and Tony Reardon's house).

3) The boiler explosion that Elvis set at the Lewis construction sight
   in which Dylan was hurt.

Those are the three that I remember offhand but I'm sure that there are
more that I'm forgetting. Oh well, back to lurking...

                           Sheila M.

Hope this post works....

[some text deleted]

I agree it does seem like they've brought in a host of new writers.  And
I remember hearing that a writer from another soap was now head of AMC's
writing team.  But I have to disagree about the quality of the writing--
at least as far as the dialogue is concerned.  The characters just don't
sound like themselves anymore.  Like the day Dmitri called Edmund(?) "man"
twice in one conversation.  It didn't sound like Dmitri at all, knowing
his background and his arrogant personality.  I tried to treat it like
"Damn it, man!  Get a hold of yourself!" instead of like "Hey, man!  Is
this radical, or what?!" but I still couldn't make it work.  I've
noticed similar incongruities in other characters' speech patterns.
Of course, this is just MHO.

Does anyone know who wrote the poem that Jen read (The Journey)?   And
would anyone happen to have it online somewhere?  I'd love to have a
copy of it.

Now, I think Taylor could be a good addition to this show - I was
impressed with her acting yesterday, and see the potential for an
interesting relationship with Bo (I agree Sallie, maybe another
triangle).

I also agree that Carly and Lawrence really sizzled yesterday - I loved
it.  Still interested to see how they handle the rape, etc. though.

I've begun wondering this myself.  At first they both

or in Viv's case, she was needing money.... Now it seems
like there's some true romance between them.  Could it
be possible?  Or is Victor being so realistic with his

I feel the same way.  I really like Isabella.... 
Altho it's very much a part of reality, I still wish
they wouldn't kill her off with something as dreadful
as pancreatic cancer.... stupid writers .... They could
have at least let her die instantly in a car crash or
something.  I will miss Isabella too.

I have never seen such a patheic "character" like Brooke.
She is so annoying!  "Why can't that be me?"  "He doesn't
love me afterall?"   If I could reach through my tv I would
have grabbed her by the back of her neck and shook her till
something falls out!  Wake up B*tch!  

I swear, when she hit the deck in her lab I caught myself

I like the idea. But it seems to me that someone is trying to make
Franny go crazy. Sort of like those old film noir movies where
the caring doting husband tries to get the wife to go nuts and
kill herself.

I'm not sure Darryl killed Carolegs either, because its painfully
obvious that the writers are stringing us along...It will probably
be someone we all know and love...but i don't know who just yet.

Good Mid-Morning!!!  Well, I have some hopeful news, Vickie, you really 
inspired me on the phone last night!  I called WGAL, the NBC affiliate in 
Lancaster, PA to see if they had any plans of cancelling SB!  I talked to
a Carol Jacoby, Director of Programming, and she told me that WGAL has NO
intentions of cancelling SB from their line-up, and they will keep it as 
long as NBC carries it.  I, then, asked her if they have had any word from
NBC or Susan Lee.  She told me, as far as she knows, NBC has no intention of
cancelling SB.  She doesn't know if they made a decision yet, but she has 
received no word at all.  Well, I guess no news is good news, right? :-)
Talk to you crazy people later.

I like that too. Do any of you get the feeling that Taylor has a crush
on Derek. I am hesitant to read the previews because I'm bored enough
already and if I read them, I won't have anything left to surprise me,
but I think one of them was that Taylor puts a strain on Mimi and 
Derek's relationship, which leads me to think she will try to come between
them.
