Yep, Zach is back looking as fantastic as ever and puts Ryan to shame. Preganacy agrees with Alicia Minshew, she is flawless and curvier and stunning. As for the storyline...'Sigh'. Again Kendall is involved in Ryan and Greenlee mess. Are the writers that backrupt creatively that's all they could come up with? Why does Zendall need to prop these two? Put Ryan and Greenlee together and let them ride off on a motorcycle together to parts unknown for good.Why couldn't Kendall and Zach have come back to a storyline that involved getting her company on track? A storyline that is worthy of Alicia Minshew and Thorsten Kaye. They are such an intergral part of AMC.Why couldn't Zach come back because of Zach and Kendall, not the gruesome twosome. Their fans deserve better than this tired retread.Zach and Kendall don't need Ryan and Greenlee; Ryan and Greenlee need Zach and Kendall. Time for Rylee to free fall without Zendall catching them all the time.It's back to business as usual with Zach and Kendall. Their scenes are thriry seconds long while we get reams of dialogue for Damon and Colby and the Jersey Shore wannabes at Casa Chandler. Yuck!Ryan is supposed to own two businesses. When does he work at either? He has time to break into hotel rooms and fake illness, but work? No time! Stupid!

Cararn, ITA with your entire post...TK is just yummy.... AM is stunning.....and I love seeing my Zendall, but I agree that the writers could have brought them back in a story that didn't involve that useless waste...The problem is Rylee aren't interesting or wanted by the fans so they use the best to prop them, which is stupid..I just love seeing them, but think it's a rotten shame that AMC can't find decent writers with some imagination, creativity, and the ability to buck Frons and his propping of that waste crap..

I was mighty happy to see TK/Zach again on screen today. Boy oh boy, has he been missed! Both Zach and Kendall are back for the plot contrivance that is Rylee. You've all said so much about this that's right on, so I won't add anything more, but after watching David and Greenlee (not a real couple anymore, if they ever were), Rylee (not a popular couple, no matter how often they're crammed down our throats), JR and Annie (are they a couple or are they in lust?), Marissa/JR (a tired marriage if ever there was one), Scott/Annie (as Annie works her way through every single Chandler there is--makes me glad Stuart is dead)--well, it's nice to see a REAL couple, with a long, passionate, romantic history on the show and children whom they raise together, show up and argue/talk like real people do. Zendall is a couple to root for in a sea of unrootable couples on AMC. I want more Zendall!!

Zendall is a couple to root for in a sea of unrootable couples on AMC. I want more Zendall!! Me too! What a refreshing thing to see such natural and relaxed chemistry between a couple unlike others on screen now. There is more energy in their too short scenes than in the entire show. JR/Annie..what happens after they hook up? They'll deflate fast. Stretch belongs in jail for corporate espionage or whatever. He'll go to jail, but Annie the felon, will live on UGH!However I'm probably in a minority of one here but I want to see Marissa grow and become a force to be reckoned with. Maybe under Caleb's tutelage she will and then stick it to these two losers. That's probably the only way we'll see Annie pay for anything. The writers just sweep everything under the rug just like Bianca's betrayal. Well, I know what's under the rug and I ain't going to forget it's there!

"Zendall is a couple to root for in a sea of unrootable couples on AMC. I want more Zendall!! "Well said Gator. I couldn't agree with you more. I as well am not going to repeat what all of you have already said about the sad state of affairs that both Kendall and Zach are joined at the hip to Rylee, especially Kendall. What a waste that two exciting characters with great story potential, portrayed by two amazing actors, Thorsten Kaye and Alicia Minshew, are always put back on the same hamster wheel with those that can't carry a s/l on their own. I do see the writing improving over the previous regime, but we are still in the same repetitive rut of the same stories over and over.I loved seeing TK/Zach back on my screen. He just lights up the show along with AM and the wonderful comfort level they have achieved over the years in portraying their characters. Nothing other than Angie and Jesse matches that on the show.What I loved about the writing by Kate Hall yesterday is that Zach and Kendall were so real. They still had some relationship issues to overcome, yet they managed to convey that wonderfully fun romantic pairing that they represent on the show, with all the necessary nuances and ad libed touches. Their's is a true love story, which the show desperately needs.TK/Zach's interaction with MN/Caleb, though short, was strong and powerful. These two characters are perfect to take over the Palmer/Adam roles in PV. I applaud the writers for bringing on the character of Caleb, and beg that they not waste him as a third wheel in the Jerica pairing. That would be a very big s/l mistake. The Jerica fans want their couple to finally have a happy ending and those of us who are becoming Caleb fans want him to have an exciting well written business story with Krystal as a possible love interest. Most of all I want to see Caleb and Zach interact as either friends or adversaries. The dynamic between these two actors and characters is riveting and it should not be wasted .

Let's face it...if Caleb doesn't go with Erica, it will be Kendall. Either way the fan bases are going to go nuts.

Zach's voice makes me go OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Nah, Zendall are going to be fine for a little while, according to SOD/SOW and the lovely Alicia Minshew's interviews in each. That's a relief to hear. Now if only ABC and TK could come to an agreement that we'll see Zach on a more regular basis--contract, recurring, it doesn't matter to me, as long as there's more Zach and more Zendall. AMC has been missing Zach. When I saw how easy it was for TK and AM to pick up where they left off, and for TK, in particular, who has appeared in fewer AMC shows than AM since last December, to interact with RB, VI, CM and NuBianca, I realized that it isn't easy to resume a character you haven't played in months and months, but TK can do it. It was like no time had passed. I love it.I'm psyched for October/November and I hope the "very romantic" story lives up to its billing. TK and AM can make even hospital scenes very romantic so easily, but with AMC lacking in romance and trying (apparently) to keep Zendall fans watching as TK and ABC continue to try to work things out, I'm expecting some good stuff.

be carefull. A very romantic story for a character who's actor has zero desire to be relocated usually means death. Literally.And these idiots over at AMC are more shortsighted that the OTHER idiots over at GH....So, don't think killing Zach off hasn't crossed their minds.... Look at the void at GH when they Killed Alan, AJ, and Emily...

I hate to say it, but I prefer a "soap death" for Zach if they can't work out a deal. I would hate for them to destroy Zach and Kendal by having them divorce. That way when AM's contract is finished and she moves back t NY, Zach can be found and Kendall leaves with the boys to be with him. I love Zach and Kendall and don't want to see their love story destroyed in any way. Hopefully AMC can work out a deal with TK, the show needs him and Zendall.

Yes have that Crazy EX of his Kidnap and fake his death - that will be a real tear jerker of epic proportion.

Quote: I love Zach and Kendall and don't want to see their love story destroyed in any way. Hopefully AMC can work out a deal with TK, the show needs him and Zendall. Does this show ever need TK! Just watching today's show, where he and AM were so funny in the Artie-the-homebuyer scenes, and how much Zach and Kendall love each other reminded me of when I used to enjoy AMC and watched for the humor and the romance. Both are sadly lacking on AMC nowadays. TK's return has been short (too short, IMO) but I've loved how at least the HWs tried to respect the Slaters' marriage and the depth of their love for each other. Without TK for the rest of August and September, I'll continue to follow the show. But if there's no TK after November, I can't say for sure what I'll do. In the few episodes of AMC I've seen lately, I see characters who are not driving story and who I wouldn't have a problem saying goodbye to. Zach is a lead character, and when written with as much care as he was on this return, he's a damn good one. I truly hope AMC and ABC can figure something out with TK because he's too good to lose--again.

After being away from the show for over four months, TK and AM didn

I want Zach to Beat Ryan's BUTT for stealing his casino. I hate Ryan for that. He is a stupid Casino owner- why doesn't the mob come in and kidnap Ryan; kill him or something.
I only liked Ryan a little more with the Blonde clueless one, that thinks everything he does is ok with her. Give me a break.
