Her Ann Taylor Loft suits have to go. Diane can be funny, but she is so effing obnoxious. I can't get over her exasperation over Sonny/Jason's crimes when she's perfectly fine taking their generous salary.

He probably would have worked better as a short term villain or whatever. The choice to make him Sam's dad felt weird to me. But at least Sam finally got a dad I guess.

Nope. Diane's 10 years past her expiration date in a variety of ways. Can't stand her. But didn't WDV and Julexis have a pretty strong or at least vocal following? Like obsessive following? I remember hearing so much about the pairing online and I always felt I was missing something.

Well, unfortunately Karen's only female peers were Brenda and Robin, so I guess they were her only bridesmaid choices. I can't remember who Jagger was going to have on his side. Just Stone? I don't think he asked Jason lol. I haven't seen the actual wedding in a while because I can only remember the one that was called off or interrupted. So I don't think they had a bridal party at the second wedding.

I entirely forgot about the Julian pairing lol. I remember thinking it was okay and that it got really toxic and ugly. I would dump Diane immediately if Alexis got her law license back, but that's just me.

When you say that it absolutely rings a bell. I'll be honest, I haven't really kept track of Alexis since 2003 and I don't even dislike her lol. I just think that was the last time she was relevant besides birthing Molly, but I'd argue that wasn't even that relevant.

Interesting. I thought it was alcohol related too.

I am not really even commenting on Liz/Jason vs. Finn/Liz. I just never thought Jason/Liz really ever got a shot as a real couple. The romance was started and stopped so many times for other characters like Courtney and Sam. Sure, they got a kid out of it and I guess that's fine. I just don't know if they were ever a really together and they have a decent fanbase. I, again, would try Jason with someone new. JaSam vs. Liason was never a big thing for me though. Both couples are okay to me. I don't like or dislike either pairing.

Of course lol! I am sure it was only because ASJ and CS were leaving, but the way Brenda/Karen make up is just a little too convenient for me. They asked her to be a bridesmaid in their wedding! No one would do that in real life. It's fine and good and I don't actually have a problem with it, but it was the moment you knew Brenda as a character was going in a young heroine direction. All is forgiven!

I feel Liz has moved way beyond Jason, but I do feel for those poor, loyal fans. I don't like Liason, per se, but I don't think they were ever given a fair shot as a couple either.

Haha! I have the opposite problem. I am 5'9" and obviously a girl so people always comment on how tall I am. I wish I were shorter! I don't think Carly/Jax can even touch the chemistry that Jax/Brenda had, but it was a good pairing. Ugh, Ingo.... I think because LW has such poor chemistry with MB and SBu the show just actively works against anyone else Laura could be paired with because if she has a popular pairing with someone else what is Sonny going to do at the end of the day? Find Brenda is the obvious answer, but let's be real. Sonny needs Carly more than Carly needs Sonny. I still stand by my statement that SBu does a reasonable job with romantic pairings and could find a new pairing that would work.

Hannah was definitely FBI. They used the fact that she looked like Brenda to try to infiltrate Sonny's business. Brenda definitely moves away from just straight torturing Karen and does seem to feel bad about it. I never thought about her playing against the writing, but I do remember when she finds out Karen was abused and she feels awful. After that Brenda actually works to help Karen/Jagger with the Sonny stuff and just changes the character a lot. Her becoming good friends with Karen is a bit too tidy of an ending, but I don't think Karen ever could prove Brenda did half the stuff she did and Karen's pretty forgiving lol.

Ooof. It's sounds awful. The AJ stuff was terrible. Was DC monotone? I just remember him being pouty and yelling about something and flailing out of the room. That's probably not Dylan Cash's career "highlights", but that's my memory of him. I get the fact they choose a kid with red hair because of Bobbie. He just looked nothing like Carly and AJ. And much like Violet, GH and I have very different opinions on 'cute, precocious' kids* *Except for Donna, my fave GH child He did seem a bit homicidal even as a child lol

OOh.. I totally forgot about SK's AJ. Super hot chemistry. I liked her and RH too. I never felt a strong vibe from her and Ted King on GH, but the show definitely wasn't trying to go there. I heard he was obnoxious af in real life too. I remember him being pretty hated by the audience online at least as well. I do not remember this Jodie story and am glad I don't. For some reason I just remember DC's Michael being shouty and bratty all the time. So I mean, the show kept that thread going with Michael lol.

Oh, Dylan Cash didn't turn out too bad. I always thought he was a goofy looking kid. He looks sort of handsome in that pic with TB. He's just quite short to say the least lol. IMO, Laura's best chemistry was always with Ingo. I saw chemistry there with Sean Blakemore and I think I do see some with Wagger. The Johnny/Carly romance was so random? strange? I can't really recall much about it. Overall, I don't actually think it's a LW problem, but who the show pairs her with problem.

It's just funny how excited those Liason fans were for SBu's return and Liz is just such an afterthought in all this. LW has no romantic chemistry with SBu, MB, or CM. So the three main men in her life lol. It's too bad because SBu is paired with TB's Ava on Days and they do have the romantic chemistry to sell a Carly/Jason pairing.

It's a real leap from Jason wanting to bang Carly to wanting to kill Sonny though. I can't say I mind the choice in Sonny's case, but it makes me quite weary that we are going all in with Jason/Carly soon. Has anyone even told Liz her baby daddy is alive?

I have a hard time believing both Sam and Sonny would be so convinced Jason did this too. I could see them doubting Jason's motives, but not set on Jason being the one that shot Dante like they are. If Willow and Drew had sex it would be the first interesting thing either of them did. Michael walking in on them drinking wine together did have an awkward beat to it lol. Thanks! Makes sense. I was going off memory, but knew it was only a few years just because of how long we had to watch Dylan Cash run around. I think we can all say thanks to the soap gods that they didn't keep him in the role ala HP or KMc.

I don't think Jason knows Britt is dead yet. But no matter what Jason, Carly, Brenda, Karen, Jagger are all the same age. Everyone (except Carly) went to high school together, but Carly has been said to be the same age. Only Robin and Stone were younger. I think he vaguely aged in real time until Drew Garrett took over? While Chad Duell looks a little rough around the edges I don't think he was SORASED much. I wish there was a flashback Idk if there is a more formidable Bobbie memory. That was a big thing for Jason at the time and I agree with that choice.

Thank you! That's pretty much what I thought. I don't exactly get what you are saying. Jason is middle aged now so is Jagger. They are literally the same age and went to high school together. Jason is supposedly a very good hitman/shot so it's not like age is actually that big of a deal if you can easily hit a target and are athletic. Jason did hold Michael as a baby. That's a real thing you can look up. I am not even trying to be mean, but what Jason said did happen in real time on the show.

The SORAS on Michael isn't bad at all lol? He was born about 25 years ago and we lived through multiple years of Dylan Cash as Michael. He's maybe five years older than he should be?

Honestly, I remember them clearly so I must subconsciously.😂 I do find it a weird shift for Sonny to be so sure Jason is working against him. It's like there's about 30 years of contrary evidence to that and you would think he dig more.

I don't want to deep dive LW's Carly's love scenes anymore, okay? 😂 Suggestive is whatever to me and the Jax/Carly scenes were more lighthearted. There was something about the Sonny/Carly limo scene that disturbed my soul.

I know what clip you are talking about (sadly) and believe me it's less offensive than the Sonny/Carly one.

Not really. It's really dark (lighting wise) and brief but uh..she straddles Sonny and you can see Carly take off her underwear and take off Sonny's belt 🤮and then I guess they change positions and Sonny is on top. It's so gross. I apologize to everyone here for making you re live that, but at least I didn't post the clip. It's honestly under 30 seconds but it will stay with me for a lifetime lol.
