I’m pretty sure I know why violence in general is more reported these days as opposed to this time last year. But I stick with the main and cancelled soaps boards to avoid politics (even though anti-conservative language and sentiments is in both of those places semi-regularly) so I will leave it at that.

I’d give it a day or two. Whatever problems there have been have usually been solved quickly.

I’ve been feeling this way since about the third week, when I realized we weren’t getting to know the men the same way we were getting to know the women. And it went downhill from there in that regard.

If someone doesn’t know the rules, that’s on them, not the person politely informing them.

Brandon having his moments does not disqualify him from being the worst. Not that Alegria doesn’t have him in a dead heat. It doesn’t help that both characters are ranging from just unsympathetic to complete assholes from a writing standpoint as well. And Vernon has been exposed as a typical elite.

Thank you, Errol!

Thanks, @DRW50! Appreciate the heads up!

I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.

I know this isn’t a usual or anywhere near universal take, but I loved the relatively brief Hal/Emily relationship/marriage more than I ever thought I would have with KMH/BH.

Kat is still a privileged elitist. She hated Eva on sight because Eva didn’t bow her head to her immediately and continued to treat Eva like a stain on her overpriced shoes. I’d love to know if Laura kissed her ass and kissed the ring properly and knew her place below Kat in the general hierarchy. While Eva has been deserving of most of the consequences she’s been reaping, the Dupree women can take several hundred seats with the way they behave towards others. The hypocrisy and posturing irks me more than anything else and it’s the same thing that irks me about all other prominent soap families who can do no wrong in their own eyes. I’m not really rooting for any of these assholes except maybe Eva (who is by default the smallest [!@#$%^&*] on this show), but I’m rooting against the Dupree family (except Nicole - she’s awesome) in general and I’m not sure that’s the goal of the showrunners.

Give me receipts from news organizations who did not spend every day of the Biden regime lying their asses off whether passively or actively and then we can have a talk.

None of that is true.

Most right-leaning don’t actually give a crap about how other people live their lives and just want the same courtesy. Not that there aren’t major assholes who are right-leaning, but there are also more major assholes who are left-leaning, and it’s the left-leaning assholes who are quicker to hatefulness and violence in my experience.

Thank you so much! I originally got into this because I’ve been a true blue GL fan all my life and Jerry ver Dorn’s tribute to Mary Stuart on the sad occasion of her passing set me on the trail of Search For Tomorrow. In a happy (or psychotic - YOU be the judge) coincidence, I am also somewhat obsessed with seeing everything that Will Patton has ever done that’s captured on tape. I’ve accepted the inevitability that some scenes may be lost, but you have given me Patton’s last scenes on SFT. I’m also a huge fan of Matt Ashford, so seeing any of his pre-Days or pre-GH work is a plus (even if his character is a complete jerk, lol) and I so very much appreciate everything you have provided and even all the things I don’t properly appreciate yet, having not gotten to them yet. You are simply wonderful in all ways and I so very much much appreciate all of your contributions to the soap community.

Thanks so much!
