I wondered about this too, but I think this was Adam's vision of Stuart,
and not the real Stu. It made a lot more sense to me, especially in his
depiction of Stu.

I wonder because I read somewhere else (maybe here?) that she may be
joining the cast of Guiding Light.  So why would she dod this if she

be sugar coated.

This will give Lucas a chance to get Livia to go with them.

I am glad you brought this up because I meant to and then forgot.  I
noticed that on Monday he was on the couch and then the next camera
shot he was standing up getting a drink.  I noticed that they didn't
show him walking at all.  (even when he was Staurt)  I also noticed
that when he gave advice to Trevor and Timmy at the hospital he stayed
seated the whole time.  Maybe the writers will keep Stuart on vacation
until David Canary heals (Or should I say "heels"? Sorry I couldn't
resist the pun! ;-) )

Beverly and Judi, this is not flaming in any way, shape or form! You
both are entitled to your opinions! :-) I can actually see both of
your points here! And I don't think Carter Jones still has had enough
airtime for us to really form clear opinions. I think any actor that
is "bad" takes time to adjust too cause its hard to like someone who's
a creep! :-) I think he is ok, but I still need more time. I'm not
majorly impressed either way. I guess someone like Sean who was bad
was still quite entertaining, and even Billy Clyde Tuggle was spittingly
more funny (IMO). I can remember when Tad was bad, I was not crazy
about him. I guess you are talking about acting, but I still am not
sure.

I'll comment on this since it was kinda answered a couple of shows ago --
I think on Monday. Seems like one of the Bishops who is trying to oust
Andrew is also going for the angle of him dating someone he had counseled.
Since he counseled Cassie, he was questioning her about it and she claimed
they were just friends. She said she was afraid to appear with him at the
rally because she didn't want this guy to see them together and get Andrew
fired because of it.

Now, about the other stuff, I totally agree that Cassie has been a baby.
But on the other hand, I think it was just as wrong of Andrew to want to
hide his feelings for her just because he wanted to make a point. No, he
shouldn't have to answer whether or not he is gay, and he shouldn't put
Cassie on display (or she put him on display) to try to stop rumours. But
he seemed to want to really go undercover with their relationship (more
so than he would have under normal circumstances) to avoid having it look
like he was trying to show he wasn't gay. Does this make sense?

But I really liked Monday's show where they finally got back together.
I thought it was really touching and they both looked so happy together.
I like Cassie when she is being like this, rather than the bratty, scared
youngster. And I really like Andrew.

Anyway, two things  more:

So what was that about the doctor taking over Kim's case from Marcus?
Is this a horrible foreshadowing? Has the actor/character gone, pulled
a Neil Curtis and went out to check his patients and zap dematerialized?
No, decent send off, no good byes. Ohhhhhhh.......then DOOL really is
a racist show.


Second, that new doctor was made to look as a jerk for he put down
Carly's Medivan. Well, much of what he said made since, she will
not solve much--but of course the writers will see that she will--
the van does bring up problems with insurance, and with legal issues.
Yet, he was made the Jerk, yet another person who dares to hurt
Li' Bitie Carly....Yuck....


Yet Kim, Lawrence, Viv and Lisanne were great....

Yes, video fans, John, always on the look out for sterling performances
by our GH crew, has located yet another film gem called "Steel and Lace."
This top flick has a small but riveting appearance by none other than
John J. York. The plot is the fairly standard, boy meets girl, boy rapes girl,
boy's friends cover up in court, boy is acquitted, girl freaks out, girl
jumps off building, girl's brother turns girl into killer android,
girl kills off boy and all his friends horribly, girl and brother jump off
building. Mr. York was the first friend to go. In the midst of a tender embrace
by the android, who of course wears different disguises until the last moment,
he has his stomach drilled out by blades that came out of the girl's stomach.
Very nicely done. Those of you who dislike Mac should make a point of seeing
it on HBO.

I don't want to flame, but I don't agree. I really like him. What a great

he will be able to control his eyebrows like Jack or Erica, the masters of

I must be in the minority here, but I really like Brenda & Dylan together,
and every time they are on the verge of breaking up, I can't stand it.
I can't see the show pairing Kelly and Dylan for a long-term thing, since
it would destroy Kelly's friendship with Brenda.  Remember how angry
Brenda got when she found out that Kelly always had a crush on Dylan,
and wanted to ask him out? (this was during the Emily Valentine period). 
If Brenda and Dylan break up for good this time, Kelly should remain loyal
to her "best friend" Brenda.  Oh well - I guess we have to wait until
Wednesday to know for sure !!

(comments from Amy B. on liking Shane deleted)

Well, I have to agree here.  I also think that Shane used to be
a classy character, and I liked the classic Shane and Kim stuff.

But after Kim got involved with Cal, which I think was totally
wrong for the writers to do to her characters, then Shane's
character fell apart too.  And the stuff between him and Kayla
was crazy -- I can't believe any writer would have thought that
viewers who were so enthralled by Stave & Kayla would even 
consider her with anyone, especially her sister's ex-husband.

Shane can run (since he'll probably regain use of his legs) off
to Pittsburgh and take me away to the English countryside along
with his accent anyday.

  This is a good point, Bonnie.  I never thought about that but given how
  close BJ and Sawyer are it's possible that he did see her there and that
  would explain why he lied.  I know it seems dumb, but remember this poor
  guy is only 19 and his world has been turned upside down.  He and BJ
  seem to have held onto to each other in the past through all the
  parental turmoil so I can see him covering up for her now figuring that
  there is no way she could take the pressure.

  Also, did anyone else notice the expression on Reese's face when he and
  Sawyer were at the station and Sawyer was yelling at him to do something.
  I kinda felt sorry for Reese.  He already feels pretty low about BJ and
  not clueing into Frank and now, here's his son, possibly going up for
  murder charges and he can do nothing, again.  He's got to feel pretty
  helpless.

  I wonder if it will turn out that he has some sort of history with Santa

was street smart, with a weighty chip on his shoulder due to a very

One of the biggest threats to Jesse and Angie's marriage was the
reappearance of a pregnant Yvonne, Jesse's ex-mistress, on their

After giving birth, Yvonne changed her mind about selling her son
