   I was hoping to just go into work for about an hour for a "farewell   
   party" yesterday, but it ended up being a full half-day of work.   
      
   So, all I got through TV-wise was:   
      
   soaps: DOOL - Thur's ep. Pretty boring. Is Stephanie's ex the   
   stalker?... But they explicitly remind us about "Bobby Stein", which   
   makes me wonder if they are bringing Bobby back from the dead to make   
   him the stalker!... Lil' Rachel is in big trouble for conspiring with   
   EVOL! Sophia (though no one knows Sophia can talk yet, and she wasn't in   
   this episode either). Xander and Sarah both continue to be massive asses.   
       GH - Wed's ep. No (EVOL!) Willow in this one. Alexis is all   
   guilt-ridden to Sonny about Willow's trial, but doesn't tell him why.   
   (Sidenote: Diane Miller the lawyer (Carolyn Hennesy) showed up in the   
   previous episode, and her leg is so f**ked up that she's in a   
   wheelchair! which explains why she's been off-screen for *months* now! I   
   want to say Robin posted an article link about this late last year   
   sometime?!...) Anyway, Carly overhears/eavesdrops on Britt's   
   conversation with NuJack Brennan and so now knows that Britt is being   
   coerced by Jenz Sidwell (which I am guessing she will fill Jason in   
   on?). Anna tries to escape, and fails! Jenz's "partner" is revealed -   
   it's the new Director of the WSB!!   
      
   Body of Influence (LMN) - It's usually not a good sign when an LMN movie   
   is headed by a non-name cast, and this was no exception. Bland cast acts   
   out a bland storyline (family put in danger when the 13-year old   
   daughter's favorite influencer is murdered... gee, I wonder who it could   
   be... maybe somebody in the teen's family?!?... blech!). This one goes   
   beyond "skippable" to "Avoid!" IMO.   
      
   What did you watch?
