I thought Karen & Paige's scenes and Paige and Kate's scenes were all really 
well done.  I kept thinking of how much more real the friendship between 
Paige and Kate is compared to that awful Jennifer/Carly stuff we get on 
Days.

I totally agree.  At first the thought of Kate and Gary together just didn't 
work for me, but after last night, I hope they end up together in the end.

I'm still laughing over those lines.  But then I love Greg and can't really 
stand Tom right now so the "Heya Tommy..." line was great.  I also loved the 
preview for next week when Greg tells Claudia to make the problem disappear 
and she says, "What if I can't?" and he says, "Then we'll have to make you 
disappear."  I loved it.

The show would have been perfect if they had left that scene and the Vanessa/
Nick scene out.  Vanessa drives me crazy.  What is with her mouth and the 
way she talks.  Plus, I like Nick and don't want him to be a bad guy.

As I was watching last night I kept thinking about the series finale and I 
thought I would like to see Paige and Greg end up together, Gary and Kate 
end up together, Claudia end up in jail, and Anne and Nick end up together.
