IN OUR OPINION
From Danielle McClure
So, I started writing about how I didn’t get GL today. Vanessa staging an "intervention" for Bill because he's in bad-boy mode, but not drunk-driving Billy? However, as I watched, the episode grew on me. The Cross Creek scene was priceless and Bill's sarcastic,
embittered rant upon realizing that everyone in his family had gathered to
confront him — and not Billy — was fabulous.

Afternoon Delight
A small number of astute readers have noticed that every AS THE WORLD TURNS synopsis I write has a "theme" based around an actor or author or whatever I'm into in that particular week, reflected in the subheads and caption (and almost entirely for my own amusement).
