I just don't understand Leo's anything. You are going to bleed Sloan financially dry so you can have nothing but expensive sweaters? There is no logic behind his actions. If she runs out of money you have nothing to blackmail her for.

You are preaching to the choir about Sam. Maybe we can just hire LH as a new love interest for Dante. Also, where has Sam's kid Danny been? I only saw Scout over the holidays. Is he just not around? I don't care, but I was like I think Sam has two kids? With a broken uterus.

If you are making me choose I would say bye to both Charlotte and Violet. Scout's probably on my list too just because it's a dumb name. And we can get rid of Kemo and keep Lindsay Hartley. I am still a little salty at Maxie for getting so jealous of Brenda over Spinelli a decade ago. Brenda would not go for Spinelli ever. But I would be here for Brenda vs. Nina as long as it's not weirdly one sided like Carly vs. Brenda was. I have seen bits and pieces. I know CW is a very good actress. I just can't with Nina.

My Violet hate is so strong. If I could get rid of that kid and have to deal with Charlotte I would. She's slightly less grating and agreed about De-Spencering her. Lulu's children make no sense to me. Speaking of Joss, we can probably ditch Dex. He doesn't bother me terribly but the weird younger Jason hitman thing makes him forgettable. I think CW would kill a breakdown story. That's a great idea.

Idk, I think Felicia would be okay. If choosing between Maxie and Nina I would probably choose Maxie too. I just irrationally hate Nina. Not like I irrationally hated Gladys, but along similar lines. Thank God that woman is gone! Are you wanting Violet or Charlotte out? Or both? I think Charlotte is Valentin's spawn, but the whole story is so wacky I am unclear. Michael is a good one. I would definitely get rid of him and I am sorta side eyeing Joss because she's awful.

I'd honestly drop Nina and Maxie too, but I know they have fans. Sasha was on my list, but I am liking her okay with Cody. I'd drop Mo's kid too. I can't remember the character's name.

Finn Curtis Hat Dad Chase's Dad Cyrus VIOLET!!!!! Diane Valentin Willow Drew Listen, that pays for Rena and we can even hire Vanessa back with that budget and I think I could cut even more.

I'll prepare a list lol!

Agreed. I think you could easily play into Ned/Lois still having feelings but knowing they aren't compatible. Make it a bit uncomfortable. I can't believe Lois has 0 bad feelings about Olivia/Ned. I believe Olivia/Lois get along because they are the same person basically. But how would Lois feel if Brenda married Ned? Or Lois hooked up with Sonny? There would actual stakes there because we watched that friendship. The Olivia/Lois relationship is so surface that I can't even deal with it.

It's kind of funny how Everett needed 5000 dollars to pay sources and the first people he went to were Stefan and EJ. Two people who don't need money.

I think the show is just taking the very easy way out with Ned/Lois. I have no idea about the comfortability Wally and Rena have, but the show is acting like it's crazy for them to still have feelings. It was apparently so long ago no one should care. I would love to know what Lois has done for the last 25 years but I guess she doesn't get that backstory. I hate to be that person but if Rena/Wally aren't comfortable playing any of the drama perhaps Lois shouldn't have been brought back.

You know, I might take life advice from Ari. I don't think I would take it from Shawn Christian lol

Eric went to jail for it. I don't think Holly was around yet? The Nicole/Chloe/Holly story is a bit weird and I think she might have been born after Daniel died.

I think AZ is a little more savvy about PR and social media after the Trump stuff. She became a bit of a poster girl for #metoo for a while and I think she's very aware of how to deal with the media. I have no idea if she's gone, but isn't she married/engaged/partnered with Shawn Christian? He doesn't appear to be working that much. I hope she hasn't left. Eric killed him in a drunk driving accident

I have to agree about Lucy. I don't know why she's being so annoying. Olivia was just being unlikable. She's known Lois for forever, right? Lois is no nonsense and not into lying. This isn't a new character trait. And someone should call Olivia out for the Dante stuff. Sonny is an ass, but he never got half a chance to be a father to Dante. Lois did some expository about Eddie Maine/Katherine to Chase I think? And then Olivia asked Lois if she had a problem with her marrying Ned and Lois said no. 100% agree about the show wasting Rena though. She is just hanging out drinking wine at the Q's

Is she gone? That would be too bad. I never thought that much about her acting, but she's really brought it lately.

On the scale of Sonny betrayal's this feels relatively minor. I don't know he'll probably be mad at everyone, but it doesn't feel like a deal breaker to me. I don't know why Olivia was so mad. Lois wasn't wrong at all. I am not absolving Sonny because shooting a cop point blank in the chest is very wrong, but Olivia didn't help the situation with her lies.

Pretending 60 year old Sonny is a prize at this point in the game is hard for me. I can accept Brenda and Carly thinking that way due to history and bad choices. But I can't see a successful woman like Nina being that into Sonny. Her self esteem is obviously poor, but this is a relatively low stakes pairing. I know there is a very small vocal part of the audience that loves Sonny no matter what, but c'mon? They have piled so many marriages and children on this man that no one would find him a catch. Plus, he's also openly a criminal.

Oh, yeah, I know some Jarlena fans are deep into it. I would never expected two co-stars who aren't in a relationship to kiss at fan events. I think it's just a John/Marlena thing because they used to have a lot of sex scenes and fans got used to it? I am not saying it's normal, I just think they have very intense fans.

Part of the reason I hate Nina is how pathetic she is. She has decent chemistry with Sonny, but she comes off so spineless and begging for any attention she can get. Lots of ladies have been dumped by Sonny. You aren't part of an exclusive club. Just tell him the truth! He just follows you around the Metro Court anyhow. He'd have like 12 extra hours in his day without her. I think Carly does actually have her head on straight. I like her current trajectory except for Drew obviously.

So I guess Ari Zucker is just going to carry the show into 2024? Days barely deserves her. Why does Leo go on these horrible tangents? He wouldn't be as bad if he didn't spend half his time telling "witty" anecdotes. Shut up. So Marlena is now a huge Eric/Nicole shipper? Kayla's like EJ might not like this? And Marlena is like don't care.🤣

I mean, Drake/Deidre make out all the time for fan events and that's weird to me. I just think they are co-workers and know they are stuck together for life basically. I am not sure if either one of them love that, but they just are resigned to it at this point. I don't think they have weekend BBQ's together or anything. I have never heard Deidre say anything overly positive about Josh Taylor so that image is strange. I am sure Josh Taylor is a nice guy though.

I'll be honest I did check out a bit over the Carly/Jason romance situation because it was so random. So I could be wrong. I thought it was still an underlying thing and Carly was sort of settling for Sonny. I totally understand what you are saying in regards to Robin's writing. Like she was frumpy and had HIV so she should be lucky for any handsome man to have her. Robin is awesome. Nina is an idiot. And I hate she settles for scraps of Willow's attention and cowers in front of Michael. I really can't stand Nina, but the show does love to shame her for no real reason. I mean, Sonny has bedded several snitches and he doesn't like it, but honestly, I don't care. Stop lying to these woman. And again, Nina can be spiteful but people don't go to jail because of a jealous girlfriend. Drew went to jail because he legitimately broke the law. I get Carly and Drew are sad about it-grow up though and own your actions. I feel like Carly is doing okay with that.

It always sounded like Wayne was very well liked and his "pranks" were in good fun. Deidre and Wayne are friends in real life and from what I can tell Drake/Deidre aren't. I think DH/DH like and respect one another as co-workers but that's it. I remember Deidre saying after they were fired in 2009 she literally didn't speak to Drake at all until they were re-hired. That was crazy to me. Not even a Christmas card? 🤣

It cracks me up that Nina is going to get eviscerated for this and she didn't do anything wrong. Believe me there are reasons to hate Nina, but not for this. The show actually is saying since the deal fell apart and everyone lost money Carly and Drew shouldn't face consequences. Carly and Drew are just stupid. It doesn't mean they didn't break laws lol. I thought Sonny/Carly also broke up because Carly was in love with Jason. The show really seemed to be going there, but Steve didn't end up getting vaxxed.
