Well, did you see the scenes for next week? Julia comes in a room where Carly is kissing Jack and Carly turns and says "what are you stalking us now?". I love when she's nasty!!

No I missed it ALLLLLLLL...

 

[Alice28]

Today was awesome. I have a feeling Julia is going to get a little kooky on us for awhile....

Looking forward to Katie's explanation of why she isn't wearing her ring. I hope by some soap miracle she just fesses up instead of having this go on a month or two.

Okay, I watched a bit this week after swearing off the show when Jack and Julia first showed up. Just a few questions please? Is Julia the Julia, the one from before?? If so, where did this JJ come from? If not, isn't it strange that his love interest would be called Julia?

How did Chris Hughes and the blond break up? They were engaged when I last watched? Now she loves Aaron who is paralyzed?? Whoa, I thought soaps moved slowly!!

Is Barbara living w/Hal and Emily (beyond weird!) and is she poisoning Emily?

When did Mike and Jennifer get together? I thought she was head over heels for Steinbeck's son? And what happened to Cabot anyway?

Is Holden still on the show?

Thanks if anyone cares to share.

Is Julia the Julia, the one from before??

It doesn't appear to be the same person, but who knows in the land of soaps. She has an ex who came after her and JJ. Even the scenes where they know they are alone, it all seems to be "real".

How did Chris Hughes and the blond break up?

chris stopped the wedding to confess to loving Emily. I still can't believe Hal forgave that B.

Is Barbara living w/Hal and Emily (beyond weird!) and is she poisoning Emily?

Yes she is living there. Can't remember exactly why they didn't lock her back up. Think she is poinsoning the guard, might be poisoning Emily too. I tend to not pay much attention when those 2 are on.

When did Mike and Jennifer get together?

I'm not sure how it all happened.

And what happened to Cabot anyway?

they think he is dead but James has him.
James had Cabot and Rosanne and set Paul up so he had to pick to save one of them. Of course Cabot really wasn't in jeapordy, but they think he died in a bomb/house explosion.


Holden is still around. Looks like he and Julia might get together for awhile. He finally got tired of Lilly's BS.

Various spoilers below and one is a BIGGIE!!!

Highlight if you want to know!

<table bgcolor = black><tr><td>

The show reveals who is haunting Fairwinds. It's Emily, who is being
hypnotized by Babs to do her bidding. Oh my goodness!!!

AND

Babs is framing Will to take the fall for the gaslighting!!

As I stated before, On Friday, January 14, Julia will hit the sack with HOLDEN , officially spiliting the one time super couple of Lilz/Holden.

Peyton List's (Lucy) last airdate is January 21rst

Larry Bryggman's (John) last airdate is December 14th.

Early next year, both Tom/Margo and Ben/Jessica will reconcile and reunite.

Rather than simply tell Mike she wants him back, Katie enlists Henry's help and
concocts an elaborate scheme to break up Mike and Jen.

When they Julia and JJ first appeared, I was sure she was going to be "the" Julia, and the JJ was short for Jack Junior.

I did too. I still think it's weird that the writers did that.

Thanks again for the spoilers. I don't think this is a spoiler really, so I'm going to say that I am bummed Larry Bryggman (John Dixon) is leaving the show. He's really a great actor, but maybe that's the point. He's been in some feature films and maybe he wants to do that more....or maybe he is just ready to retire, who knows.

 

[Alice28]

Mike and Jen got together after Jen caught Jordan sleeping with Rosanna (they had sex in their grief over Cabot...whatever). Jen was very angry, and dumped Jordan in a flash. Jen, Mike, Nikki and Henry started hanging out a lot as friends. Henry really liked Nikki, but Nikki liked Mike. Jen and Mike said they had swore off dating for awhile. They became closer friends, and then she convinced him to do some modeling for her new company Street Jeans. The sparks really started flying then, and they moved forward with a kiss here and there, and went to Ro and Paul's wedding together. They still haven't done "it" as Jen wants to be in love and have it be serious before they do the deed. Katie steps back in the picture at this point, but Katie assumes that have "done it" and makes up a big lie that she and Simon are together so she won't compromise Mike's happiness.

 

[Mermaid02]

Thanks for the spoilers, I never even thought of the first one!!

What is Babs giving Emily? Does Barbara want Hal back?? He is looking good these days! LOL

 

[Rafikifan]

Is Randolph Mantooth playing Hal permanently now? Does anyone else remember him as Johnny Gage on the show "Emergency" in the 70's? I was a kid and I had the hugest crush on him. Don't you just hate seeing your hearthrobs looking old? Kind of like the last time I saw a photo of David Cassidy. I see Keith Partridge in there but........

Yes I believe this is a permanent replacement. I really like him as Hal. He may be older.... but he's looking good to me!!

 

[yourtravelpro]

I watch ATWT religiously, but for the life of me, I don't know what happened to Nikki? Where did she go??

 

[Alice28]

I like nu-Hal too....he fits in quite nicely.

Don't know where Nikki went- she helped Hal and Carly track down Jack, but she hasn't really gone anywhere....the writers just don't use her very much. She's kinda boring anyway...

 

[yourtravelpro]

yeah....I thinks she's boring too, I just realized though that I hadn't seen her in awhile.

 

[disney4us2002]

Thanks for the updates guys. I watched Emergency somewhat as a kid but got queazy a lot, lol. I still don't like seeing blood!

BF, pretty fancy posting there, how the heck did you learn that one? I hit the quote button so I could see the coding. I get the "table bgcolor" but what does tr and td mean? That is pretty neat; I may have to save the link to your post to remember that one for the future.

Sorry, I haven't got a clue how that coding works! I did exactly what you did when someone else used it in the 'Big Brother" thread; I hit Quote and copied and pasted the coding. I use it now when I want to post a spoiler. I don't know how it works though. I can't take credit for it.

 

[decker96]

Can anyone tell me what happened today? I wasn't home and forgot to tape it! Thanks!!!

 

[Mermaid02]

I had to work late- anybody got an update??

 

[Alice28]

Okay, here goes---CBS did interrupt for about 10 minutes due to Peterson sentencing.

We start off with Katie and Mike at Lucinda's (why I am not sure)- I guess she was there doing a Toy Drive thing, and he was there to pay his rent (??) so they start chatting and she dumps her bag of gifts and he says, "Katie, where's your wedding ring?" And she starts to say, "Oh, Mike, I meant to tell you before, but..." And Jen walks in!!!! Grrrrrr...she steals him away telling him about some new photo shoot and Katie just kind of watches. Mike at first says no... Later they talk and she lies and says that her ring washes down the garbage disposal and Simon is getting her a new one. Ug. He and Jen sweet talk a little bit; Mike changes his mind about the photo shoot cause Katie says something like, "Modeling just isn't you..I mean you don't even like champagne...." I think he wants to prove Katie wrong.

Onto Emily and Barb- she makes Em drink tea again. Kim stops by and notices Em is looking a little looped. Barb insists she is ok, just a little ill and is on her way to the doctor....

But at Fairwinds, Will has a nightmare that Rosanna accusing him of being crazy again. Ro and Paul talk about it...Ro goes to pack for a business trip and comes downstairs to see Cabot's stocking hung up on the mantle. We find out is was EMILY who did it (but Ro, Paul and Will don't know this) by Barb talking her into it. We also see Hal and Will having a heart to heart at Al's.

Alison and Aaron hang out at Al's all day- they show Holden that Aaron is getting some feeling back in his leg. Aaron is stressing about getting a job. Alison's boss is complaining they're short staffed. Alison suggests he hire Aaron to do the cash register.

Carly and Jack are laying on the couch, naked (with soap opera blankets artfully pulled up of course) and have big smiles plastered on their faces. But, uh-oh...who is that banging on the door? JJ- he had left a note at Julia's saying he was going to Jack's cause he heard her crying through the door (and I always thought hotel room door's were pretty sound proof). JJ whines to Jack to help his Mom....Julia shows up---guess what---she's crying----and gets snippy with Jack. They tell JJ the truth and he throws a tizzy fit. Irritating. Julia says something about just staying in Oakdale cause it will give JJ some stability.

We also see Carly and Holden talking- she tells him Jack made his decision and he suggests throwing a party or something (I think that's what he said anyway). He does ask about Julia.

The show ends with Katie on the phone with Henry telling her to meet her NOW. It also ends with Jack with his furrowed brow about what to do about JJ.

Tomorrow: HENRY and Katie talking- he tells her to fess up NOW and tell Mike how she feels cause he said Mike still loves her. Barb telling a drugged Em how they're going to get Will back. Ro and Paul (I think...maybe it's Paul and Will) talking about who could be trying to sabotage them. And something else, but I have already forgotten!

 

[r3ngels]

It is driving me crazy how JJ is calling Jack DAD... he has a dad already and he knows Jack for about a minute. I also hate Julia crying every single day she has got to be dehydrated by now.
