See above for my comment about Greenlee and Leo. I love Josh Duhamel in everything he does. Battle Creek was a terrific little show, and Josh was adorable as usual. I was sorry they canceled it.

Roger Howarth plays the hell out of anything he's given. They put him in this awful Franco character, but he plays exactly as you said - like he knows this is ridiculous and all these other folks are nuts. Curses on Prospect Park for taking away Todd Manning for no reason.

Greenlee and Leo forever! Now THERE was a soap actor with some charm and charisma - Josh Duhamel. Be still my heart. Fergie is a lucky woman.

I know, but they retconned the vampire so that he was not in fact a vampire, but a serial killer who only thought he was a vampire, because he was deranged over the death of his wife, who was originally the daughter of another character, but they retconned that out of existence. The only one who remembered the way…

Same. His chemistry with Kelly Monaco (and everyone, really) is through the roof. He's made the character so vulnerable and likeable, yet still has that super-hero quality that Jason has always had (see yesterday's episode, when he walked into a shoot-out UNARMED and managed to kill all three shooters - there's that…

Well, there was the whole blowing up half the town's lives at his aborted wedding to Carly thing. I think that might be hurting his popularity with the townspeople.

The only reason the Jake/Jason storyline works at all is because Billy Miller (who used to be on Y&R) is amazing and very charismatic. I never would have believed that anyone could have replaced Steve Burton (who is now on Y&R, bringing the whole thing full circle) in that role. But Billy Miller has me saying Steve…

Yeah, I think GH wins the craziest current soap. What with all the things you mentioned, and dead people being frozen and brought back to life by miracle serums and all. Although DOOL once killed off half its cast and sent them to an island that was the name of the town spelled backwards - Melas. Yeah, that was…

No, they turned out not to be twins. Franco turned out to be the hitherto unknown son of Scotty and Heather. For now.

Yeah, that was pretty nuts. And then Obrecht put on an Anna Devane mask, resulting in Finola Hughes getting into a fierce battle with… herself.

Doesn't beat the late, lamented Port Charles, which didn't settle for having people come back from the dead. They had vampires. Lots of them. At one point, I think half the town were vampires. And they also had vampire slayers. And angels come to earth who fall in love with heiresses. And have to go back to…

Another song about death. Though, in my opinion, a much better one. But I was listening to it recently, and I realized something very disturbing. After 45, we get, "but now the days grow short…". As I am currently in my 50s, I find that very upsetting.

Love Sinatra. Love Kurt Weill. But this song just depresses the hell out of me. It just sounds like someone waiting to die. Because that's what it is. Someone whose life is over, and now they're just hoping to spend what little time they have left with their loved one. Just depressing as hell.

Thanks for clarifying. Sorry for the attack. TBH, I think Bill "Howie" Masters would have been fucked up no matter what area of research his dad went into. Because the real Bill Masters sounds like he was a real cold, selfish son of a bitch. I mean, according to the real Gini, Bill made it clear to her that she…

No, I have a warped sense of reality.

Well, that does make more sense. But from what I've been reading about the real Bill Masters, it seems unlikely that he would have raised an unfucked-up kid in any case. From reading old interviews, he sounds cold, obsessed with work and very selfish - really not so far off from how he is portrayed in the show. So…

Where do you get your information from? He was arrested by 2 undercover cops in Michigan because he was naked and masturbating in front of them. The undercover cops were there because there had been complaints about a public masturbator in the area for years. Prior to that, he was arrested in NY for doing the same…

About William Masters III 's arrest for indecent exposure: http://www.huffingtonpost.c… He sounds like a sick puppy. Strange that he's a repeat sex offender. Strange and sad.

FWIW, the real Bill Masters III has been arrested several times for exposing himself in public, and also for masturbating in public. So maybe the show isn't so off base in showing possible future messed-up tendencies of the "entirely fictional" Masters son. And maybe having a father who is world-famous for sex…

And because of, you know, actually aging.
