GH: July 2025 Discussion Thread
Yes, 2010 Mo was bad and searching for lines still, but miles better than what's happening now. Plus, even with VM's "unique" 2010 acting choices like the cackle, she still worked well with him. And honestly, I know Kelly T. is Steve's savior these days, but Vanessa and Steve work well together too. I also think Mo would be okay taking a backseat to Vanessa. He seems to really like her and respect her as an actress and Brenda as a character. I think he'd be comfortable letting her take the lead in story. I wonder how many viewers left would even care about Sonny/Brenda. There used to be so many messageboards, fansites, and groups dedicated to them that have mostly disbanded because it's been so long. Most fans have moved on-except me lol.

Yup. I think killing off/firing Mo/ Sonny is way too risky. The Brenda solution is ideal but I don't think it's anything anyone is thinking about. We are just going to be in a holding pattern until the show decides to do something. I still maintain Mo has a strong wacky FB, Twitter, and offline following.

Thank you! Very creepy. It's a shame because the OG Possession was available privately in edits on you tube for a long while, but someone had to ruin it lol

I am assuming Sophia will be out once her arc is over because the actress is terrible, but who knows? It does seem like it would be easy to keep Doug3's story going now that he and Julie made up and he stole the necklace from Gwen. Plus, there was unfinished business with Holly/Ari and he could have grown his relationship with Roman and planted some definitive roots in Salem.

That's what I figured. I just remember more opera dates with Stefano and don't recall harem girls, but it clearly happened lol. It looked like Joe Mascolo was either edited out or something because you could vaguely see Stefano behind her in the beginning of the clip.

GH: July 2025 Spoilers
The ONLY thing I would buy about Konefal as Sasha is the fact she was the Face of Deception. Sasha was never believable as that, but VK would be. She has more of an it factor than bland SM (who I do think is beautiful too). And honestly, VK does look a little bit like Emma Samms. I think Sasha making guest appearances it a perfect place to land with the character. I don't think the show was committed to making RG's Michael/Sasha an item yet, so we honestly only need Sasha back to give us updates about the kid and Robert/Holly for now. There isn't a single character on the show I could imagine VK playing as a recast. I guess the show could go wild and age Avery or Donna, but VK is probably too old for that.

I'll get the most embarrassing thing out of the way from today. I paused the show halfway through and came back so when Sarah looked up the test results I thought "OMG! Marlena's a male!" Because I totally forgot Sarah/Brady were talking about Sophia's baby earlier.😂 Does anyone know what those Marlena flashbacks were? I assume it's from before she got OG Possessed but I couldn't recall those particular scenes. I really enjoyed those Doug3/Julie scenes. They were sweet. It's too bad the character didn't work out. Also count me in as someone who doesn't even remember Gabi/Gwen fighting over Jake of all people.

I believe Sasha will be back or recast somewhere down the line, but VK? She's entirely wrong for the part of Sasha. Not a single thing about Victoria, her acting, her looks, her age, etc fit Sasha in any capacity lol. I know it's from unreliable sources, but this seems extra unbelievable. Which obviously means she will be cast and start appearing next month 😂

This is why I get so annoyed with Carly. She was complaining about the danger of Sonny's world two weeks ago and now everything is back to normal. She's defending Sonny again. And, honestly, I don't think Sonny really even solved anything long term with Sidwell. GH has always had a habit of making Sonny/Carly look right, but this is ridiculous. Marco is completely innocent. Lucas isn't overreacting about him being kidnapped. Just because Marco is fine and released now doesn't make it okay lol.

Carly coming off like a loon is pretty standard to be fair 😂

I don't even hate Curtis being Dan from GG today. I just wish he did it with less disdain. Yes, Nina might be mad, but your wife is going to lose her entire career. So....yeah.

GH: July 2025 Discussion Thread
Lol at Scout wanting to call Willow mom. Sam's been dead for a few months. Ouch! Nina realizing her daughter is a psycho is great lol. I guess Curtis standing up for Portia is nice. It's just all so lackluster on Donnell's part.

ALL: Speculation on the Future of Successful Daytime Soap Operas
Thanks! Once or twice a month sounds right to me actually. I could remember it happening but couldn't recall the terms or why it ended.
-
ALL: Speculation on the Future of Successful Daytime Soap Operas
Yes. I think it was a Tuesday or Wednesday though and didn't last long. It started with Vanessa Marcil's return as Brenda in 2010. GH/Brenda episodes got the whole 3 hour block. I swear it was only a few months but they'd do all classic episodes for one day a week. I don't think there was another character specific one, perhaps AM's return as Kendall? It wasn't very popular, IIRC.

I had to laugh that Belle took the time to call Brady instead of 911 when Marlena collapsed. Maybe the show is bringing Theo back? I can't imagine any reason for them to mention Claire/Theo breaking up after Abe talked about them getting married on John's deathbed. Theo makes more sense than Claire in my mind because I recall Chanel dated Theo before she appeared on the show. The Gwen scenes were out of order or something? She arrives at the mansion with her luggage, talks to Brady and Rachel, then the last scene is her packing up the same luggage and finding the necklace missing. That was strange.

I don't consider Trina, Gio, Emma, Cam or even Kai selfish so it's not all the young people in Port Charles.

Idk, Joss could have actually made sure Britt was okay being pre-med and all at the time, but had to run away with Dex. Joss is selfish and I don't even care about Britt.

I liked JMB in the Dante era. She was a little too much all about Dante, but it gave JMB something warmer and almost more lighthearted to do? She really didn't have much chemistry with her first few million boyfriends. I never liked Emme in the role, but the writing was absolutely tragic for her version of Lulu.
-
GH: July 2025 Discussion Thread
There were some very rough JMB years for Lulu. Dante practically revived the entire character because I hated her from the time she was Sorased.

I don't know. Maybe a Sophia/Tate/Holly/Doug quad? Rachel Boyd as Sophia is such a disaster that maybe they scrapped the whole idea. That's not Peyton or Doug's fault, but I suppose they just wanted to cut their losses when Ron left since they weren't inspired by the character. It would make sense to cull the teen scene and leave Holly/Tate as endgame and create or recast characters that work a bit better.

DAYS: July 2025 Discussion Thread
It's disappointing because Doug basically came in and left in the same situation, now with a few more enemies. There wasn't an arc or really even a story. At least let him go out more heroic-getting Julie's necklace back and maybe sneaking a kiss with Holly. This was just all a pointless waste of time. The idea of Doug 3 was fine. If Peyton wasn't working out they could have recast instead of ditching the whole character all together.

Fair enough. I don't recall everything Skye did. I remember a night club and Q business. I don't know what Nina did previously either except be in a coma. I know Carly went to college to be a PT, so she might have the least experience. I assume Jax did teach her a few things about business along the way though.

GH: July 2025 Discussion Thread
Does Skye even know how to run a magazine? Idk, she's had so many careers and backstories.
