When the show opens with Sonny still kissing the DA lady I immediately wanted to turn off my tv lol. At least she slapped him.

I have to believe this isn't the end of it, but who knows? It seems too easy. Unless KS is really limiting her availability or something and it works better to pair her off with Spinelli. The whole reunion was very anti-climactic.

I have a hard time believing Maxie and Nathan was wrapped up so quickly. There has to be more right? Spinelli is the right choice, but I thought there would be some angst. Although I get the sense Nathan didn't care all that much and beelined to Lulu lol. Anyway, I don't really know what they are doing to Chase. I can't bring myself to care much, but he's being next level stupid right now.

I didn't think it was an issue of NAC declining the show. I thought it because NAC wasn't very accepting of Mo's advice regarding acting and scenes on the show. But who knows? I do see your point about sharing things that potentially could be harmful in the future. There are definitely actors that avoid the show. Vanessa Marcil has repeatedly turned him down and I believe people like Maura, NLG, Finola etc don't seem to be interested. I personally find Mo as a host a bit too focused on himself. He likes to talk about his experiences a lot even when someone is talking about their own issues, so I have honestly only seen a handful of episodes.

Mo generally seems well liked backstage these days. Frankly, I am sure Mo knows the real story with Steve and his wife and it was clearly not a great situation. I doubt Steve cares that Mo made an offhand comment about it because Kelly was whining like a child. I don't think he's forcing anyone to do the show either. I am sure Kelly jumped at the chance to hear herself talk. There are notable people who have not done the show, so I assume he takes no for an answer lol. I am sure KT is disappointed. The reality is that the only reason she was hired back is most likely because of Steve and Jason needing a solid love interest. The best response would have been to express her best wishes for Steve and say she was excited to work with him in the future when he returns. Mo talking about Steve's ex sort of helped turn the conversation around and made her back track so Kelly didn't look like a complete selfish idiot.

I mean, he might be terrorizing the set in other ways, but I don't believe it's because of the you tube show lol.

How though? Granted he probably shouldn't be bad mouthing his co-star's ex-wife, but Mo doesn't appear to be forcing people to appear in episodes. All these guests seem willing to share their experiences. Say what you will about MB, but I don't think he's terrorizing the GH set strong arming people to do his you tube show lol. Some of the episodes like the Tyler Christopher and Sarah Brown interviews were very emotional and informative. He gave them a small platform to tell their stories that I don't think anyone else would have.

Burton did a very good job keeping things private. While I am sure his politics and views don't align with mine, he kept everything very quiet. Ingo decided to double down and get more vocal while Steve waited it out, took a small job on Days, and went more under the radar. KT has been obnoxious online since her Brian Craig boyfriend days. It doesn't seem like she's matured much at all.

I did laugh at Mo spilling the tea about Steve. I have the opposite reaction regarding Britt/KT's future. I think this is the final nail in the coffin for her here. Her return has flopped so hard a Jason pairing was her last hope. I doubt she lasts much longer on GH.

I honestly thought Chase and BLQ were watching Michael's kid last week until they said her name which actually gave me a humorous pause because I was confused as to why Chase was allowed to play with Michael's kids lol. One of the best moments of 2009? 2010? was Spixie's non wedding. It was light hearted and fun. They deserve a real wedding. I am always confused if Bradford is recurring by choice or not though. I agree that Maxie is a character that never needed kids. She's always had other focuses and then she gets saddled with three. I assume one was because of her real life pregnancy. GH always loves a baby story and it's a shame that they give women babies so young and then keep adding them on. Next thing we know Joss will be pregnant lol.

I personally have always been a Spixie fan. They did get annoying toward the end of their first run and Spinelli was an extremely obnoxious human being, but they both have matured and the pairing works. I have always considered them endgame and Spinelli has been so good to Maxie and her kids. Does Nathan even know Maxie has a third kid? It's totally fair if he ignores the last one like the rest of us though lol. Nathan and Maxie were an okay pairing. I never thought there was some great love there. His impact on the show and on Maxie were overblown because of his tragic "death". I personally am hoping Maxie will figure out something is off with Nathan first and we can move on from the predictable love triangle/quad with Nathan/Lulu/Spinelli/Maxie, but I am sure it will be drug out for months.

Is Chase going to magically have viable sperm again though? Lol. Probably.

I don't really understand Sophia's entire plan still. What is her endgame here? Break up Tate and Holly? Hurt Johnny/Chanel? Stay in Bayview forever and not speak? What was the point of her and Rachel? Where is her mom? None of it makes sense and it doesn't help that Rachel Boyd is terrible.

Sam and Dante were fine. They didn't bother me. They just were there being unoffensive and boring. As far as Dante/Lulu, the stall has been far too long. Sam's been dead for over a year and the show hasn't even hinted at romance for Dante period. I think there is a clear disdain for Lulu as a character and a real agenda to make her look as bad as possible as she is now creeping in on her best friend's husband. I get FV didn't want to beef up the Spencers and drove JJ out quickly, but I feel like Havins will hang on so at least use her.

I honestly have never noticed any chemistry between the Liz/Dante. They are both charismatic actors so they can probably make it work. I just don't see any drama there. It would be another version of Sam/Dante which was pretty much always dull until she died lol. Dante has been directionless for a long time. It's a shame. It's crazy to think the show was all Dante all the time several years ago. DZ can obviously carry story. I assume Dante and BLQ will hook up once Brook catches Chase/Willow together and Brook Lynn will probably get pregnant and we will have another baby story. Yay! The show really is avoiding Dante/Lulu at all costs, but I think your reasoning is correct.

Have Liz and Dante been sharing multiple scenes? I haven't noticed and didn't think it was testing. I feel like the show would go with Brook/Dante long before they go with a random pairing with Liz, which could have potential to be fair.

I feel like saying Elizabeth and Dante or Liz and Dante would be easier? Eldante sounds like a special way to cook pasta or something lol.

I have literally spent 10 mins trying to figure out what eldante could possibly be lol

I am a bit behind, but is it supposed to be ironic that Michael is bad at axe throwing? Lol. When he literally killed someone with an axe?

It might have when Victor betrayed Marlena with the whole Kristen/Brady wedding saga with the tape of the Eric/Kristen rape being exposed, but I can't recall. When John was helping Maggie with Konstantin he kept expressing how Maggie was their good friend, so that's where I assumed it was at currently.

So, I agree that it's on Deidre and I agree there is an obvious issue. The show could also lean into this by saying Marlena feels uncomfortable sharing her feelings over John and still hasn't accepted it. Thus being stiff and awkward while the other ladies have come more to terms with their losses.

I think Suzanne tries slightly more than Deidre or at least fakes it better. It was less icy the other day, but both actresses were focused on SSH most of the time. The way Deidre and Suzanne were sitting though had them both facing SSH which was probably intentional lol. Must be awkward for SSH lol. At this point it clearly is what it is. I don't think it's going to change. It's too bad because those scenes and the dialogue were quite nice.

I am prepared for a paternity switch up as well. Isaiah is really so dull and basically Portia's b*tch.

I understand why people like Isaiah, but he does nothing for me as a character. I find him boring and it's not really his fault. Obviously the writers don't care enough to develop him. In theory I would say he and Jordan would make a good couple, but I feel like that would be a ticket straight off screen. At least Kerr can act and is a stronger scene partner for him.

True, but he really is doing the bare minimum lol. Seriously, though I don't get the point of giving Curtis or Portia another kid. They already share one. The show is always going to continue the endless loop of Curtis/Jordan/Portia (now with a side of Isaiah) so who needs a baby? 3/4 of these people have adult children.
