I think LW has fabulous hair. It's curly and thick and the show straightens it. That's why there is so much. LLC/Olivia also has a great head of thick hair. Laura and Lucy's hair has never bothered me, but Anna's does look a bit flat and stringy sometimes-not always. I wouldn't hate if she cut it. I think it's more of a texture thing than an age thing for me. KMC/Robin's hair would look like that as well sometimes near the end of her run. I personally like Tracy's hair. I think the grey and the up dos she has look distinguished and unique. It works for Tracy, IMO. As far as KS/Maxie, I have honestly been down that road too many times and I think everyone knows my thoughts by now.

You have a good point about changing the show. I think I am more frustrated the show has managed to screw it up so bad thus far. I really don't care about Lois/Olivia and Lois supporting Brook Lynn in her snooze worthy wedding nonsense. Of course at least we have hope things will change. I like Blaze. I like her and Kristina. I think the story has some potential. Of course, if she left I wouldn't miss her or anything, but I think the character and actress are pleasant enough.

It's clear to me that GH just jumped to get Rena with no plan. Rena/Wally are adamant on Ned/Lois not reuniting and that's pretty much the story Lois/Ned fans have been waiting for all this time. So this means you have to a solid idea for Lois outside what was her main story previously. I don't have a problem with her moving on from Ned, but I don't know who on the current canvas I would pair her with. I think there is some way to incorporate her career and move Brook Lynn out of Deception and the two of them could build something in PC together with that with Blaze maybe? Hopefully, the new writers will figure it out. I honestly love Rena/Lois, but I am not sure she actually fits on the current show.

That his own mother lives at and that his stepfather owns. It's like the first place anyone would look for Lucas lol.

Yeah, the two Pierce's on the same network and similar time period align with that. So I think Bradley White played the part initially then Youngblood may have been the recast briefly and we moved on to Tuc Watkins. Wiki says Dorman had ties with Damian as well and I don't recall that at all.

From the what I saw his "time" at GH was before the AMC stint, but now I am thinking I was entirely wrong and IMBD gave me false info. Which obviously happens, but I can't remember enough about early Dorman to say one way or another.

I think you are right. I just briefly glanced at the dates for each actor and I don't know enough about any of them besides Tuc to accurately make a judgment lol. Looking at pictures on the internet I can find it does seem to be White. Looking at Fitzpatrick again, I don't remember him at all as Dorman. It's listed on IMBD, but not his wiki and I am wondering if his role as Pierce on AMC got conflated into Pierce on GH, which were roughly in the same time period.

When someone on the GH writing team figures that out I'll let you know.😂

This might have been something that looked better in person than it did on camera. It's obviously quite expensive, but the addition of the accessories and pants just made it look way too much. It also was very different from the large red poncho she wore the day before.

Yes! This was the outfit I was talking about. It was not even a dress it was like a leather jacket on top of a leather top on top of leather pants. It was a lot lol. Lois has always had a unique style, but she was more edgy and bold. This just looked cheap. And what might have worked in 1995 when you were 25 does not work 30 years later especially considering all she was doing was talking to Chase's boring dad at a bar.

I know. I just wouldn't be shocked if it did happen either. I feel like Ava has progressed beyond that, but I don't know where Ava goes now unless she goes back to full on villain. That's what she should be doing. I just don't know if the show wants to go back there. Never😂

I think Ava/Sonny would be a bad idea for the characters, specifically Ava, but I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility. It would cause drama with her friendship with Nina and her cordial relationship with Carly. And I agree Sonny would sleep with anything.

There were 4 actors to play Dorman I believe. The first two you mentioned and Bradley White and obviously Tuc Watkins. I am sure Dr. Dorman had more scenes in 1994-95, but I don't know how easily available they are. There appears to be quite a bit of the Monica/Dorman story online, but not a lot of the early Dorman. Sonny/Brenda seem to have the most complete library of clips for that time period although I know there used to be some Robin/Stone specific playlists he might pop up in.

They were obviously the same Dr. Dorman, but the awful dr. to Stone didn't exactly have much correlation to what Dorman became, if that makes sense. This Dorman was a jerk, but the Dorman that had an affair with Monica, dealt drugs, sued Monica, and ended up dead was about 100x more off the rails than the guy that didn't want to do the biopsy on Stone in the above clip. The actor above appears to be Jim Fitzpatrick.

Dr. Dorman debuted in 1994, but I think the stuff with Stone happened in summer of 1995. I have seen it in Sonny/Brenda edits so I know it still exists on you tube. It was after Stone's diagnosis, but Dorman's main story at the time was refusing to treat Stone because it was a hopeless case. He was very recurring. I think the character left and then came back but was recast at least once or twice before Tuc Watkins took over. ETA-here's the scene I remember most. Tony actually fires him. It aired late Oct 95

I would agree, but that's not exactly the dialogue we are getting. It's like Sonny's saying he's really upset and does care, but I just feel a big 🤷‍♀️from Sonny about the entire thing despite his words. Nina is always about 10 mins from a breakdown, but she doesn't seem to care that much either and wants to just start a new magazine. It's not like I am personally sad about the development I just don't get it.

Ha! Autocorrect. I fixed it.

I think the Ava/Sonny/Carly friendship helps to keep MW/Ava more relevant since she doesn't really have a ton to do right now. I really think it's more of giving Ava something, anything to do than it actually making sense. I don't really mind Liz, Carly, and Sam getting along. I don't think their friendships really add anything to the show. Again, it would be nice if someone besides Nina just didn't like Carly for long standing reasons. Even Lois seems to be on the Carly bandwagon and they hardly know one another.

Yes, I do get what you are saying. You don't want catfights weekly, but for characters to at least have conflicts. A lot of long term rivalries have seem to be lost. It's all very dull.

Yeah, but I think the show just messed it all up. I am not sure it had anything to do with Abby in particular. BB was just going to finish Tyler's stint up, but Gabi/Stefan caught some fans and then they bring Jake in and that failed. Then the show kills Jake off and brings Stefan back. It just seems completely bungled from start to finish and a downside to filming a million years in advance.

GH-Jason, Faison, Helena Once was fine, but multiple times is excessive Days-so many, but bringing someone like Stefan back was silly.

Yes! Sonny's reaction just seems so tame. So unlike him when he's betrayed by a woman. He's basically ambivalent about the whole thing. He is still wearing his wedding ring and hasn't filed for divorce, but it's not even his focus right now. Drew is the most angry about it all and he was in prison for 10 min for a crime he did commit, so I don't care about his pain. The Ava/Sonny/Carly stuff has never made sense. They shouldn't like her and she shouldn't like them. There is no reason on Earth they should all get along. It adds nothing to the story. I actually don't mind Liz and Carly getting along, but I do find it weird Carly gets along with basically everyone (Alexis, Sam, Ava, Liz, etc.) that should be some of her lifelong enemies. It just seems like a way to prop Carly and make me think anyone that dislikes her is very in the wrong.

It seems like the show has really cooled on the Molly/TJ/Kristina surrogacy story, so I guess Kristina/Blaze suffer. It makes me wonder if the show is just moving on from the Sonny/Nina romance entirely. We get to hear enough about Willow and Michael's feelings, but Nina seems much more concerned about Crimson. Which is fine. I just find it a very perplexing choice.

It just feels like a strange writing choice. Sonny is talking to everyone else about his relationship with Nina instead of just talking to Nina. It just seems like the show is missing out on an oppurtunity for drama between them by just having them co-exist and not fight or anything.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Emily and Georgie on GH. Totally silly when you think about how much long term story both had to give. AJ is another short sighted death.
