GH June 2021 Discussion
It looks like Steve Bond has credits listed up until 2017. I don't know how recent his google photos are, but he looks decent in what I can find. I think it would be very plausible for him to come back. I'd rather they not kill him off.

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
MBE has been rocking that cut since her GH days. It's an overall styling thing with her. Her wardrobe is awful 99% of the time. The whole package is pretty bad. AZ is someone else who has always had bad hair. There were moments when she grew it out a bit where it looked okay, but it's never been good. I remember being so happy when she cut it off and it was still really long. My 90's Sami memories mostly consist of her having that long, long braid down her back. But overall, Ali has been okay with hair. People like KA, Renee Jones, Eileen Davidson, etc. come out looking fine from the 90's because they stuck to fairly basic styles. Missy and Deidre both cut their hair off in the mid-90's and I hated both of their cuts. Deidre had such nice hair in the cage and then she cut it off and it made her look instantly 20 years older. It was a real toss up between John/Marlena for worst hair circa 1997. It's still hard to look at..........

Fair. I was onboard until the weird late 90's stuff. It just looked greasy and awful, but Drake just looked like he just never got a haircut ever. There are times he still suffers from that today. I always thought Ali had that long ass hair way too long but she was young and it was good hair. Rachel Melvin's hair is still so funny looking back. I like a graduated bob like Megan Ward on GH but she was on another level.

I forgot that I liked evil Sam. KeMo is just someone who has felt so bored and collecting a paycheck for so many years I can't remember any good parts about her performance. I genuinely think keeping Sam bad ass and someone who didn't have kids would be a better choice. I know kids on soaps are a norm, but it can be refreshing to have characters and woman that don't want to have children.

I might be judging you a little. That picture doesn't do it justice. There were always strange hair clips, weird twisty updos, episodes where only a wispy bang would appear, I didn't even care about Carrie/Mike. I just wanted Christie to pull her hair situation together. lol Days has a real issue with hair. Rachel Melvin's weirdly highlighted choppy cut was also epically awful. This isn't peak highlights faze, but what is going on?

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I love Carrie too, but it was bleached so blond and short and then it became a muddy brown with questionable bangs and layers. Thank goodness her hair recovered since then. I wish I could find a better picture, but at this point I thought someone in hair hated her lol

Me neither. John's shoulder length weirdo mullet is at least something I could fix with scissors. DH is tall, in good shape and reasonable attractive I just feel like someone should have intervened. But Christie Clark spent a good portion of the 90's with some of the most questionable haircuts and dye jobs I have ever seen, so there must have been some sorta disconnect in the hair department.

Yes, I think it was right around RoJohn's Pawn introduction. I remember John being hired as security and some of the attacks but I don't remember Maggie's rape at all. Serial rape stories are disturbing, but Days tendency to re-use that trope over and over is more disturbing.

I mean they are all good looking but ............... Exhibit A: Exhibit B: Exhibit 😄 I 100% prefer Lucas to EJ and Lumi to EJami, but this is enough to make me consider paying him $6000 to be my life coach. Just saying......lol

I liked Jason/Sam right at the beginning. I have never enjoyed Sam at all and have no idea why the world's most lifeless performer is so popular. SBu has done good work and does sometimes have chemistry with people, so I am more open to him/Britt. I would not be against this. RH/KeMo play really well off each other as adversaries.

GH 06/14/2021 Promo: How Far
I thought ME and KeMo were pretty hot on PC. But I don't think KeMo and SBu have much chemistry so who knows? Sorry, I thought Liz was in the sanatorium and that's how they met, but I guess that was after Liz's stay there. Regardless, it was weird how that woman was the only person Liz was talking to.

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I don't know his always seemed real to me. Realer than how I feel about Kristian Alfonso saying she's never, ever coming back lol. Just because JS was so into all the personal life coaching stuff and apparently quit acting. I wonder how successful it is because it is pretty pricey looking at his website. Anyway, I just think Days/Ron brought EJ back to life without any plan and are now stuck having to follow through with it. I am pretty sure I have heard Days has approached JS several times, but we used to hear the same stuff about JKJ and that he would never return and was living in like a cave in Missouri or something, so who knows?

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I think Days really screwed up making EJami this amazing love story and endgame after JS left. He was pretty clear he was never coming back. They should have just kept him dead. Days just got stuck with the fact they had to cast an EJ now that Ali was back. It might be better to move him in another direction away from Sami. Will see how it goes, but I think they should definitely start testing DF with other women. He's not bad, per se, but I am not wowed or anything.

I was thinking he got his good looks from his grandmothers lol.

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
He's almost 70. I am fine with the gray hair. The man hasn't let himself go. He still looks in great shape. I prefer it to his dye job and certainly to the weird dye job Josh Taylor has. SN has weird things going on with his hair too most of the time. But I think people like Maurice Benard should cut the dye jobs out too. I am pretty sure Drake's mullet went out of style in about 1993. In 1995, I was getting concerned. By 1996 or 1997, it looked like he was just too lazy to get a haircut. <<<<<<<< This is an unacceptable look for a man appearing on National Television. What's scary is I think it's actually a pic from the 2000's lol. I love BD/Lucas, but he isn't the hottest guy around. But Sami was never supposed to be the hottest girl either, so it works on that level.

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I can't believe the show let Drake have that awful mullet looking hair until like 1998. It was about 10 years outdated when he finally cut it. I remember thinking back then the least believable thing about Days was not devils it was the fact two women were fighting over a man with that awful haircut. lol I love his silver fox hair. He looks so much better. I am sure BD could get a better cut. It looks like he has a fair amount of hair, so someone should be able to figure it out. I guess the one good thing about the EJ recast is he is nowhere near as smoking hot as JS so the Lucas/Sami/EJ triangle is a little more believable.

Agreed. I liked Sam and John McBain and Carly and Todd. Once they both changed characters that dynamic was gone. Also, I don't think McBain and Sam had much of a shot because she was like 8 months pregnant and the show was still ride or die with JaSam. It's almost like the writers from Guza on down resent RH for being too popular to fire. Poor Liz has had some awful stories. The Nik affair, the shirtless doctor they tried to pair her with, the months she was in the loony bin chatting with that old lady that made ugly jewelry? It doesn't seem to bother RH. She still gives it her all, but she really deserves more respect. I don't know why Jason doesn't just grow a pair and tell Carly to back the eff off. It must be the lingering brain damage. Any normal human would have left Sonny and Carly and their stupidity in the dust a decade and a half ago.

Yeah it is quick for Liz to move on, but Liz has had quite a few loves of her life. We all know it's Lucky, but it's been Jason, Nik, Ric, Franco, Drew, etc throughout the years. So Gh has always been fast and loose with the Liz romances. I actually am ready for the Carly/Britt/Jason stuff. Carly will be Carly as usual, but Britt is a worthy opponent.

Isn't that basically what Michael Easton is? Just greasy hair and a monotone voice? Could you imagine the things Becky could do if they actually cared about Liz?

DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I think BD aged okay. He was never super hot to me just cute and now he's like middle age cute. LK does look younger than him though. She never ages. I think she might look younger than she did in 1995. ^^^^^Seriously, who can compete with that? James Scott is nearly perfect looking. DF is fine, but I am not wowed. I think facial hair would help.
-
DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread
I am not a fan of Nu-Ej so far, but I will give him a chance. James Scott was so damn handsome it's hard to live up to that on a physical level alone. And I am a huge Lumi fan, so I never have bought this EJami love story. At the end of the day though, AS and JS had chemistry and I am not sure I see it here with DF.

GH 06/14/2021 Promo: How Far
Well I mean they keep giving Easton and Howarth new characters lol. GH is not afraid to try and try again! I have no use for Sam, but it seems like Britt/Jason have some fans and I don't think Dante/Sam are where it's at. Maybe they should try to get GV back as Lucky. The only Sam pairing I ever liked.

GH 06/14/2021 Promo: How Far
I don't think the show has ever cared about RH/Liz that much. But she is popular enough to make most anything work and still have a substantial fanbase. Friz was the worst pairing in the world and it still had a following. They can throw her at Finn and her fans will probably still support it or at least tolerate it. Not sure why they don't try Finn with Sam. ME and KM do have chemistry when they both try (which is rare lol)

GH June 2021 Discussion
I am going to be honest, I never noticed them not kissing. I always just thought it was the actors comfort level. Michael and Willow have had like 1000 scenes miles apart. I like Sasha but I can't say I noticed anything weird until she showed up with a 6 month baby bump lol. But happy for Sofia! Literally the mother of all cliffhangers and it all happened so fast. Bam! Lily's pregnant. Sonny leaves Brenda in the rain. Jax and Brenda have sex. Jax demands Brenda marry him (a little creepy in retrospect). Lily doesn't go see her father. Lily blows up. Jax and Brenda got married. It all happened in like 3 days. Weirdly, I don't even think of Lily as a grey character just one I wanted to go away. And I HATE the show pretends like Sonny loved her and she's the ultimate paragon of virtue. It's been 25 years and I'm still not over it lol.
