There was just something kind of snotty about AT's Emily. Like the family put her out and it was so hard for her. This is such a petty, trivial thing because I did like Emily, but she was so familiar and annoyed with the family so early on. It just felt weird how her loyalties lied.

Ben can stay off screen. I don't want to hear Ciara weeping about their great love. Take Baby Bo and sail around the world. And I like or tolerate RSW. It's just another character for a mediocre actor always sours me.

I think I might care if she killed someone like Alex lol? Nicole and Eric making out is a snooze.... Jada is sad. Isn't anyone else doing anything?

BORING....Chanel's secret has been a snooze so far. None of this looks exciting to me.

That's exactly how I would put it. I think it might have gotten whitewashed to a seduction, but again I am not sure. The rape hasn't been mentioned in a long time, so with the recast and EJ being the love of Sami's life I think it's become a different thing.

I think so, but I want to say the truth about the conception has been manipulated throughout the years by different writers. My assumption (since Will had a script for the Sami Brady story that was sold) is that he does know, but it's not something Will would tell Johnny because that would be hurtful.

I would say it's not a close enough bond for me to really notice or the show to recognize. It would be nice if they did as that is what the writers should do, but if you didn't tell me-I wouldn't have known. I just always thought Emily immersion into the Q family was so quick. I didn't dislike the story, but it was like 0 to 100 in what seemed only to be a dozen or so scenes. And AT's Emily was always seemed to dislike being a Q which was obnoxious. She was always rolling her eyes and being sarcastic and I get the family is a lot, but you also should be a little more grateful to the people who aren't letting you be an orphan and providing you with a good life. Anyhow, literally entirely a different subject, but when I think about young Emily I do think about that.

Lol! It is a good song if you ignore the creepy origin.

I would love for Johnny's conception to come out. I just thought it made sense Sami/EJ didn't tell him about it themselves. If someone else does I am all for it. Why are Kristen/Brady talking about Rachel's medical issues right in front of her? She's like 8 and she's not deaf. That was so awkward. Parents don't do that do they? As far as botox, it's not unusual to have it at 40. I suspect Nadia's had other work done along the way. My understanding is it is better to start botox young so it works better and longer.

I thought it was just Nadia's lighting yesterday.............🙄. Guess not

I mean, I think it's fair Sami/EJ didn't tell Johnny how he was conceived. That's an awkward conversation that I can imagine they'd protect him from for his own good. But......calling Stefano his Nonno or whatever? Give me a break. Susan, Marlena, John, and Sami should have nipped that crap in the bud. Johnny should not be looking up to a criminal mastermind-related or not.

A lot of Caroline's I know go by Carrie or Carly (ie Carrie Brady or Carly 'Caroline' Benson) and I don't see Carolyn shortened often. lt also might be a regional thing with the way people pronounce it. It's a family name for me, but my sister got named Jenna after Priscilla Presley's character on Dallas which is cooler lol.

Even though Caroline is phonetically spelled it's still considered by most to be the same name. I would say I am called Carolyn at least 80% of the time by strangers. Probably because it's the more common of the two names. Good for GH for actually using history lol. I don't think I knew Jeff broke up with Anne via letter. That's cold... I remember the show setting up Sarah/Liz's backstory pretty well. I don't fault Emily for not knowing Jason's history. I swear I didn't know for years Jason wasn't Monica's biological child and Emily just got inserted into the Q family practically overnight.

I was thinking about Johnny/Allie's conception the other day and I was wondering if they tell people they first meet like Wendy that they are twins but have different dads 🤣 I don't mind Johnny having a Dimera side that he embraces, but fondly talking to Stefano's picture? Yuck. I can't believe with Sami as a mother he didn't hear about the sad, sad tragedy of John taking her father's place for years because of Stefano or Marlena's constant kidnappings. Come to think of it, Sami probably just explained it all away as John/Marlena fault anyway. With legacy children I am always curious what they know or don't know about their parents or upbringing.

It sounds like Carolyn to me too, but it is hard to tell lol. Carolyn/Caroline is fairly interchangeable. I wouldn't even notice if it wasn't something that personally bothered me. That's why I go by Carrie for the most part lol. Days always had an issue with the name. John (and a few other characters) would call Caroline "Carolyn" all the time and no one ever corrected or said anything. I had no idea Jeff/Carolyn were together in 1982 or that she existed as Carolyn back then. I thought she was made up sometime in the 90's after Liz/Sarah appeared.

I am bummed, but no word for months makes it not surprising. I love Degrassi. I don't even hate Next Class lol. The characters were annoying, but the show is an easy no brainer. You just have Spinner/Emma's kid be the main character and set it up from there.

Wiley is okay and adorable, but everything Willow/Michael touch is boring so I don't fault the little guy. I was laughing when the little girl that plays Scout was dancing with her butterfly wings in the background of the Alexis/Ryan Lavery scenes. Firestarter Cam might be my favorite child soap actor ever. Gh has always done well with the kiddo casting.

GH has really adorable child actors I have to say. The little girl that plays Donna is so cute! This isn't really on the topics being discussed and is not really relevant, but I do think GH does the best casting with kids out of any soap. Carolyn seems like she might be evil. I thought her name was Caroline though before this? Correct me if I am wrong, but I remember that because it's obviously my name. But.....my entire life people have called me Carolyn so it might not even be an actual mistake.

lol! Reading comprehension is not my friend tonight. I don't think JY is doing anyone a favor by casually saying he might come back for a few episodes. Wasn't he basically universally reviled as Lucky? But.......in his defense he has no chem with LIz and had that weird Summer story with Luke that was awful.

Doesn't JJ live in Ireland or another European country? I could see how it would not be feasible for him to uproot himself and his family again for GH although I haven't seen JJ in much recently. All GH really has to do is find a guy in the right age range that has chemistry with RH (not hard) and go from there. Lucky is a pretty special character with lots of nuances, but it's not a completely unrecastable part. But I am someone who thinks most roles can be recast. ETA-Are you talking about JY? lol. Because what else is he doing? He could come back full time.

I didn't like JY as Lucky. If you can't get JJ or GV I would look elsewhere, but JJ hasn't wanted to do long term in years. Idk why the show hasn't look elsewhere years ago or when GV was free before returning to Days. I wouldn't be devastated if JY came back, but I just don't think Lucky is a great fit for Jacob's strengths.

Yeah, apparently Rinna and KA were not friendly, but banded together with their hatred of RKK and went to TPTB leading to RKK's firing. I believe RKK publicly trashed KA in some interviews after his firing. Lulu really seems like an easily recastable character. JMB was fairly popular, but Lulu isn't really a character with a ton of complexity. A lot of actresses would be capable of playing her. Lucky is a bit trickier, but his absence from the canvas is so glaring. I prefer GV as Lucky over him as Eric on Days. I actually think both characters are cut from the same cloth though.

You know I am pretty okay with RSW, but even I was what asking WTH is he even in these scenes? Too much. I know a lot of people enjoy Eric/Nicole and I am fine with them, but I am not really into this story. Jada/Eric and Rafe/Nicole don't really have much depth. There isn't any rooting value in either couple, so does anyone care if Nicole/Eric cheat? I feel like they are wasting the character of Jada who I do think has potential.

Why was Alex acting like a photographer? He's such a weird character. He's completely unnecessary in these scenes and story lol I find it fundamentally odd that Johnny identifies so closely with his Dimera roots and barely seems to care about his Brady/Evans side of the family. Like does he not know Stefano tortured his mother's family for years? The lighting in the Brady/Chloe scenes was bad. I felt like I could see every bit of filler and botox Nadia has ever used and normally she looks completely natural or mostly natural lol.

He married Miriam Parrish (Days Jamie) when she was 18. It's pretty obvious they probably dated before she was of age, but it was never made public. They were married for about 15 years and had a kid(s) together. IIRC Ali Sweeney's mother pulled her off the show for a time because of the RKK/MP relationship (which is why Sami was off screen during the Possession and the early part of her pregnancy with Will). I am not sure if womanizer is the exact right term. It seemed more like he was creepy and aggressive with his female scene partners and cast members, moreso than actually hooking up with them. Not defending him or anything because he has a warranted bad reputation, but it seems his more recent stints on GH were problem free. So perhaps he grew up or changed? He was a pretty big deal in the 90's, but I think he now has a job as an airline mechanic or pilot or something.
