We have seen the kitchen a few times to be fair.

Chanel gives all the baked goods out for free on some table in the square. Why would I ever try?😂

Let's be real. I am too. I am going to sound old but child actors on soaps today are just too performative. They don't even seem real. There is a difference between being cute and charming and being obnoxious and singing full length songs on the reg. I honestly wasn't sure. I have had to explain to other people why I obsessively check packaging on medicine to this day! NO cyanide in my over the counter pain pills today!!😂

The real life story was brought up in reference to the Hollyoaks storyline? Anyhow, if nothing else now everyone knows on this thread why medicine is sealed these days and it can be deadly to take medicine if the seal has been tampered like the bottle says lol.

Hey, if I could look like the people in Salem do while only consuming donuts I would live outside Sweet Bits to be honest.

A bunch of tainted Tylenol pills sold in stores in Chicago. 40 plus years ago. They never found out who did it. I am not sure how widely know it was or if it was a huge story. I think it was? I just knew because I was born in Chicago and lived there the first 10 years of my life.

That's a real fear. They probably will park Violet with Liz. But is there an actual reason Hayden doesn't want her own child? I think it had something to do with Nik but he's in jail so she's free and clear to come grab her child.

You know I am not a Sam fan and wouldn't care if KMe just stopped appearing one day lol. I can at least admit both DZ/KMe could handle more material and I do think after the shooting I buy the pairing a bit more. I honestly don't care one way or the other, but I do think them getting married would have been more drama filled than Grandma Brook. Re-casting Lulu would be ideal though. Oh, Violet is a nightmare. I just thought she conveyed the emotion today pretty well. Again, if she was shipped off to Hayden tomorrow I'd be fine.

It's so strange DZ left and GH made a huge deal about Dante coming back and didn't do anything with him really. DZ is so charming and charismatic. And while I do think he's a bit wasted on Sam she is a lead too. They are treated like this D level pairing. Honestly, they should have dumped the Brook Lynn/Chase wedding and had a Dante/Sam wedding. The drama would have been so much better with Sonny, Jason, Carly etc and then Violet would not have been needed to sing lol. *although I did think the Violet actress did a decent job today. I am not a child hating, heartless monster all the time lol.

I always felt Hillary Swank's work on 90210 led me to believe she was the least likely multiple Oscar winner. lol

DZ has always been a capable male lead. He was shoved down our throats in 2010, but I do think Dante should be a leading man. Much better than snoozy Michael.

Watch I said that and now he will become the best young actor of our generation lol.

Believe me, I wish I was high while watching GH 😂 Ha! The Tylenol murders! I was born in Chicago and I can't tell you how many times my mom told me about tainted Tylenol. I still use Advil instead.

Agreed. Although I did find Sasha the most interesting while high.

I'll be honest, but I think more people that I knew in high school had opiate addictions more than alcohol addictions. I am not terribly young and I have know at least 10 people who have died fairly recently from bad pills/heroin/fentanyl. It's timely but it sure is depressing. My mother is a counselor for rehabs so I know more about the program than I need to lol. I just know when you are serious about the 12 steps it's very serious. And much like your sibling the thought is you can't do any mind altering substances in moderation even if it's not your drug of choice.

Aaron seems like a nice enough side kick kind of character. The actor will never win Oscars, but I did enjoy his scenes enough. Aaron does seem sweet.

Yeah. Brenda and Alan (both pill addicts) drank freely as well post-addiction, but I don't believe Lucky ever did. I can ALMOST let Brenda/Alan/Sasha slide because I don't think any of them followed the 12 step program. I didn't even know Curtis was a pill addict until this moment so no idea what he does. Finn seems like he very much followed and completed the 12 steps and that's why he was so disturbed by accidently sipping champagne.

I only saw the living room and didn't notice the stairs, but it appeared very similar. I think the paint was different, but the chair and the couch were either the same or just re-upholstered or something. There are people on here that are much better with sets than I am, but I didn't notice anything different structurally.

Just to clarify since I get all GH Michael Easton characters confused, Finn's problem was with pills correct? Specifically opiates? Not alcohol, right? I know, I know he follows the 12 steps and drinking is a huge no. I just wanted to know if that was his actual vice or not.

It's part of Maggie's plan. She's trying to trap Konstantin by making it look like he's embezzling funds. She's wise to his character at this point. Thanks!

Yeah, it definitely could be a combination of things, but it's hard to trust KD's judgement if she's still struggling with the booze. From what I can tell it's a very big problem for her. She may think she's still a free agent/big star, but I can't imagine any show would want to deal with that. Hope she gets the help she needs, because she is so talented.

Do we know if this is Doug/BH's last appearance? I thought Chad/Julie's dance was super cute in the Kiriakis living room. The actor that plays Aaron is horrible, but he's dorky and charming enough for me to tolerate him. I wonder why Nicole didn't suggest to chaperone the prom? It would have been an easy compromise and saved everyone a lot of trouble.

Interesting. I tend to forget Annie hung around for awhile post the Josh/Reva stuff The vaccine mandates might have something to do with, but I am pretty sure KD relapsed. She got a DUI after appearing on GH and I think she's still dealing with that. I think the court case ended fairly recently.

Very true. I bet it does have a lot to do with their soap beginnings. Forgive my ignorance, but did they play off one another on GL much? I thought their stints on GL didn't overlap much and I honestly only have the most basic working knowledge about GL.

I am hoping Drew and Nina stay removed from Carly for awhile. If we have to use Carly I'd prefer her to hone in on Ava. I actually do think CW and LW play off one another as adversaries well. I just can't remember the last woman who had a level playing field with Carly and that goes far back into the Guza era. In my head, I was imagining Nina begging Sonny for forgiveness after the truth about his meds comes out.
