Ha! I really enjoyed Kristina/Ethan. I saw them as a pairing that could grow-like Jason/Robin. Someday Kristina would grow up and snag the guy she had a crush on when she was a teen. But Ethan is a non-entity and Kristina prefers women now so the dream is dead.😂

With everything we know about Days BTS I am not surprised Mansi jumped at a better offer. From what I have heard from Mansi through the years, I don't think Abigail inspired her much. Kristina seems to be a more interesting character for her to play. Yeah, Mansi was clearly the right choice. I just have a soft spot for Lexi. I know she will forever look 15, but maybe she'll get jobs when she's 50 and still looks 15 😂 It just makes me sad to think how many years they wasted Lexi/Kristina and the minute Mansi comes in it's front burner all the time.

They certainly are giving it their all. And I think TB is doing fine as TJ unlike a lot of people here.

I don't want to go down the HP road because I know you and I have varying opinions. But I am glad they have found an actress that works and it would be difficult to imagine Haley playing Molly again at this point. I was pretty sure Mansi would smash it too. I just felt for Lexi after all the years. I liked Mansi's Abigail and that's saying a lot because Abigail is a bit of a drip of a character, for lack of a better term lol.

I know I was one of the big detractors when they dumped Lexi and lost HP at a similar time, but I was wrong lol. GH did a great job casting with KV and KM. The story is stupid, but they are great in their roles.

I know I have low key always defended HP because I really do hope she figures her ish out. I sincerely can't imagine her playing current Molly and this story at all though.

OLDMolly looks surprisingly young in that photo lol. I really didn't mind the first temp recast (sorry I already forgot her name). KV has really impressed me lately though. She's stepped up her game.

At least we got to enjoy 4 different actress's takes on Molly in that time! Lucky us!

It's a lot remote M places so understandable

Thank you, my friend. It seems like such an antiquated vision to see surrogacy as the same as adoption . I am sure Kristina has feels for the baby, but she never entered this situation thinking it was going to be her baby.

I am just going to love this post and not call anyone a troll or wrong. Everyone has an opinion and that's fine. To me, there is just such a different initial intent between surrogacy and adoption-aside from moral issues. They aren't the same idea and shouldn't be painted as such. Kristina didn't accidently get pregnant or needed to give up the baby for a variety of reasons. She went into this full well knowing she was going to give the baby to Molly/TJ and got inseminated with TJ's sperm because she wouldn't be pregnant otherwise.

It's Missouri. I think Clyde/Cop girl hid in Montana. I obviously have no right to police this board (not directed at you Donna). I just don't find @Adriana posts offensive or bad. English is my first language and I have a college degree and sometimes sound silly because I misspell or use incorrect wording. To me it's more about what you are saying than how you say it. I personally have no problem with her posts. I can understand people having issues with it, but I don't think it's trying to bait people. Just MO

I think it would be an interesting story to tell about Kristina. Her father issues, her abuse issues with previous men, her female professor almost grooming her, her confusion in general about her life direction, etc. I don't think GH would be able to tell that story, but there is a lot of depth to Kristina and her romantic relationships.

You said it fine. I get that. I just keep thinking the audience might not like a grey area of definition especially with a gay character. IDK though.

I think Kristina has said she's a lesbian out loud? Or am I wrong? I just think keeping her sexuality more fluid opens up lots of possibilities especially if she goes dark lol. She can sleep with Dex to mess with Joss!

Yes. Kraze isn't awful but it still seems like Mansi is doing all the heavy lifting here. While someone like KV as Molly stepped up to the challenge, JL is more meh to me.

That's fair. JL has improved, but I still feel like there is someone more soapy and tied to the canvas that Kristina can be paired with. I'd leave her fluid in sexuality so she could have romances with anyone.

I know people like Kraze, but I wish Mansi had a more dynamic romantic screen partner to play off of. Blaze still feels like a C or D character to me even if Eva La Rue is her mom.

It always seemed like MBE really enjoyed playing Katherine, but the character was a mess. I am not the biggest Kayla fan and I think MBE does better with a character with some edge, but I feel like Katherine was just meant to fail from moment 1. The first fall from the parapet was epic though! I feel like there were so many possibilities with the Stefan/Bobbie marriage. The obvious tension with Luke, but you could have played more Bobbie/Nikolas bonding. The show started going there a little bit, but you could imagine the problems with Laura as well when Bobbie starts becoming a maternal figure to Nik as well. It wasn't endgame or anything, but I feel it was cut way too short for a SN/MBE pairing that was probably never going to work because the characters were just too different.

I mean, if you have to use Leo I'd rather it be in a way where he suffers.

The Leo/Dmitri/Gwen stuff was revolting. As is Leo crying about losing his friendship with Gwen. Maybe if he treated her like someone he cared about or even a human being I would have some sympathy. He deserves Dmitri dumping him and Gwen hating him. There should be more scenes of Leo calling her and Gwen hanging up on him.

Hmmm... I see your point and I think you can put some blame on EOB for Gwen because that was the role she was hired to play. I don't really think she had much choice in playing Theresa. I suppose she could have left or said no, but even if we know she was miscast, the show was telling her otherwise. Just a mess all around. I think Emily has the least blame for it though.

👍 Absolutely.

Molly Sims and Nikki Cox might like a word with you lol. A ridiculously attractive cast.

I think Vanganos deserves a contract, but I am at a loss about Brennan. I see no need even if the actor is good.
