Oh my, that was tough. I LOVED it.

I couldn't believe that Jack returned but then they didn't consumate their marriage.

I loved it, too- DD rolled her eyes when she heard me sniffling.

I think Jack was thinking of Carly- he just wasn't into "doing his husbandly duty" with Katie because he is too sad and worried about Carly. Katie didn't push it, because she saw how affected Jack is by all this- I think it kind of hit her how much Carly means to Jack when she saw him comforting her in the hospital.

 

[flipflop]

Add me to the list of lovers of yesterday's episode. Box of Kleenex next to me the whole time. When Carly talked about the time she had left with her kids, I turned into a puddle.

I think the writers have done a good job developing Brad. He is so likeable now. Even though I am a Jack and Carly fan normally, Jack has been such a jerk recently and said so many hurtful things to Carly, that I almost hope Brad and Carly get together. He is really supporting her and takes her for who she is.

OK, I'm glad dh had to work late, because he would never understand my hysterical sobbing right now! After hearing all the reviews of yesterday's show, I had to watch on CBS.com. Talk about a heartbreaker! And everyone isn't behaving so realistically. Katie and Brad seem more mature in this storyline. And Jack and Carly, OMG!

Rumor has it Luke will get hurt around Oct 1 and it might have something to do with a fishing trip.

Rumor has it that Noah will lend Luke support and folks believe that means he will give him his kidney.

We'll see!

Oh, I also have a bunch of ATWT gossip supposidly from the actress, Jade. On another board the member's brother's friend dated her and she got to ask her all about ATWT but some of the gossip upset folks over there so I haven't posted it here yet. Should I??

 

[Jennifer S]

Yeah - post it. It's only rumors not fact - might be fun if you take it w/ a grain of salt.

Yeah - post it. It's only rumors not fact - might be fun if you take it w/ a grain of salt.

Actually, it's backstage gossip, not anything about story lines!! But we can debate whether it's true or not!

The person posting is a regular poster respected by most and most believe her but some think it's horrible that she'd post this kind of stuff.

Here you go!

Okay so earlier this summer I had the chance to meet Elena Goode (Jade). She was dating my brother's friend who is a model in New York.
I expressed my disappointment in her leaving the show. I told her how I felt like the character was never developed and they didn't know how to write for her.
Elena is SO SWEET and very unlike Jade. She told me she loved playing a character that was hated so much by fans. She is a really talented actress!

She said Martha Byrne is a very sweet, nice lady, but doesn't get too close to new people on the show because no one really sticks around! She also said that her and Colleen Zenk Pinter (Barbara) do NOT get along at all. She also said Martha is very outgoing and is so bored playing Lily.

She said she loves Kelley Menighan Hensley saying she's "a lot of fun"
She also said she loves Maura West, and wishes that she could have worked with her.

She said the first Dallas would get SO nervous before scenes, that's why they let him go. She said they wish they explored that relationship more.

Onto the juicy gossip...

The actress who plays Maddie, was dating the actor who played Casey. He ended it and she was devestated, and became obsessed with him.

Austin Peck (Brad) is somewhat of a ladies man. Always flirting with the female co-stars, but he is married.

This is controversial but the Jen Landon is apparently a lesbian, but won't come out. Apparently she is sleeping with the EP which is why she has so much storyline. Also what someone pointed out in another thread, Jen Landon will leave the show if Jesse Sofer does.

Why would people get mad at the rumors? They have a choice, believe it or don't!

 

[birdiesunshine]

BTW, Gwen looks like she has a mullet

 

[beattyfamily]

I totally agree but some thought it was cruel and some thought it would bring down that website to a 'low level'. Silly, IMHO.

 

[flipflop]

Seriously? people got upset by that?? wow.

Interesting stuff.

 

[beattyfamily]

Here's some actual spoilers:

Jack buys a house for Katie (hey, a new set!), but the moment is ruined
because of Jack's preoccuaption with Carly.

Cole finds out that Sofie is still pregnant and kicks her out. She moves in
with Aaron (isn't Aaron living at the farm, guess there's room with Katie
and Jack in their own place).

Paul comes to Meg's rescue after she's attacked by Noah's dad. He kisses her boo-boos -- and the rest of her --- and
the two of them have sex. Apparently, it's so good they decide to dump
their respective partners (Ro/Craig) and be together.

Carly prepares her children for her impending death. Eventually Ro learns
what's going on and gets involved.

Maddie will be moving away from the Nuke storyline and will become part of the
Cole/Sofe/Gwen/Will/Ali/Aaron circle!

As previously reported, Noah's dad, having found out about Luke and Noah,
pretends to accept the relationship, setting Luke up for the kill. Following a family dinner with the Snyders, he invites Luke
and Noah out on a fishing trip at a remote cabin (in location scenes at the
same place where last seasons slasher story was shot) where he plans to
murder Luke. Both Luke and Lily are hesitent, but because Noah is so
excited about it, they agree to it. After Luke, Noah and Win leave for the
cabin, Dusty shows up and tells Lily about the Colonel's dirty deeds before
passing out. But it's too late, Win has sent Noah away to run an errand and
pulls a rifle on Luke.

According to Van Hansis (Luke), what happens next has major ramifications
for Luke (my guess he has a really big boo-boo). He adds that he's really
enjoying playing out the story twist.

 

[MomofKatie]

I wish the writers would give Maddie a nice guy to fall for- the poor kid has had such bad luck!

Loving the Luke/Noah stuff, but not crazy about Noah's dad being a psycho killer.

Rosanna has only been back a month or so, and I'm already completely bored with her SL.

Love the Carly/Jack/Katie/Brad stuff- Brad is actually becoming a better person and better character in helping Carly cope with her illness.

And who is that HOT police officer that Carly was talking to at the station on Jack's wedding day? Is he going to have some more interaction with the rest of Oakdale? Yowza!!

 

[beattyfamily]

YES!!!

See my above post!

 

[MomofKatie]

See my above post!

Yup- reading all posts before replying is a good thing, no?? Thanks for the dish!!

I edited to comment on a few general things going on instead.

Beattyfamily, I read the gossip,so my enquiring mind had to see who the EP(executive producer?)is and it's a man. So, is Jen Landon a lesbian or bi?

Of course, this is all gossip so who knows but most are reading it as she is a lesbian but doesn't want to come out and meanwhile, maybe as a cover or to promote her career, (although I don't think she needs any help) she is sleeping with the 'boss'. I don't know if that means she's bi or not.

 

[MommyPoppins]

That would explain the mullet then.

 

[Jennifer S]

That would explain the mullet then.

OMG - that is the first thing that popped into my head when reading about her.

 

[december]

OK, I didn't get to a computer today and I missed all this. The Jennifer Landon thing sounds like sour grapes to me. She's a lesbian, sleeping her way to the top, so she gets good stories and I get axed kind of thing. Maybe it is true, personally I don't care. She's a great actess.
