Oh, Frank would kill off Brenda if he could and be like "just not a fit for the current show". She'd probably die in a car bomb or something and he'd say it's history. I thought Kristina/Lucky was silly, but I do see the potential and Mansi and Jackson had a vibe going.

You have a very fair point about Setton. I just never thought of JJ as being in the same category and you have given me something to think about. I was thinking about Nashville as well and don't remember JJ shying away from meatier content, but it's been a while. It's such a slippery slope to let actors have a say in their story. I think sometimes actors know their characters better than the writers yet I still don't like it. You're paid to play the story given. I think Jackson has a tiny bit of overinflated ego about being "Luke Jr." and the next big thing and it didn't exactly pan out for him. I see him thinking GH was lucky-no pun intended-to get him back. At the same time I love JJ and Lucky, so I think Frank did do him dirty. It's just hard with characters so far removed from the show. Liz is a responsible adult and lived a life while Lucky, was Idk, playing cards in Africa. It was always an odd fit of a return.

Do you think Jackson's Christian values were the issue? I am sincerely asking. I don't think that's the case here. I agree about the storyline, wardrobe, and hair issues. I just think Frank didn't care at all and helped tank it because it wasn't what he wanted. I am sure JJ isn't blameless. I really haven't heard of him refusing stories on any show due to his beliefs though.

Agreed. I don't think we've seen Charlotte in months, but Scout, Violet, and Charlotte are all annoying, pointless, blonde children so don't take my word for it lol. I know they are all different ages but I just ignore them all. I try to ignore Wiley. Unfortunately, he's been around more often.

I have such a dislike for Frank that I can't even be happy with good things. I just know they are going to be spoiled in the end. Oh, Charlotte can disappear forever. I am fine with that. I think Drew has custody of Scout? Who else would? Dante doesn't have any claim even though I think Rocco, Danny, and Scout spend time together somewhere. Probably at the Q's.

Charlotte lives with Lulu. We don't see the actress though.

Oh I doubt she's asking for a lot. I just feel deceived because they fire JJ, but look over here another famous OLTL actor.

Someone can probably explain it more in depth, but there was a clear point where the show just considered Natalia a loss and I guess are trying to get rid of her now? Seriously, you could just say her and Blaze made up and she went on tour with her and we wouldn't be forced to deal with this all lol. Well apparently he got so money needs to be divided properly now. 😂

It all happened in like an episode. Sonny found out, got her fired from Deception, and hasn't talked to her since. Natalia hasn't even really been on until she got drunk at the pool and got the DUI. There is almost 0 drama involved with her being formerly married to Sidwell. It was just a thing with no fallout except Sonny being mad.

When Sonny found out she was married to Sidwell. That was a dealbreaker for him. The character of Natalia was already sunk by then.

Lol. I totally knew that. There's two of us here!!!

To be fair, that's sorta Mo's regular face as Sonny no matter what is happening lol. Interesting. I do think there are ways to give Chase more story, but I am still on the why bother at this point now? Any Vanessa Marcil article belongs here. I am probably the only one that thinks that though.

Swickard probably could have done more. I just don't know when you call a character a loss. Chase isn't outright annoying or bothersome. He really doesn't have much of a purpose besides defending Brook Lynn all day. Jason absolutely wore suits in court before. Every previous murder trial lol. I guess wardrobe couldn't throw Steve a blazer to put on today.

How's Natalia even allowed to drive? Don't they immediately take your license away? I'd be doing a lot more walking if I was on my second DUI.

Your ideas for Chase are good. I just wonder if Josh Swickard is talented enough to pull it off. He's handsome and mildly charming, but he's been on the show for years and hasn't made an impact. He'd have a great career in Hallmark movies, but I don't think he's made for a long term soap hero. Also, unrelated, but how is Jason allowed to wear a black t-shirt in court? Lol. Even PC courts probably have a dress code. Sonny killing Natalia would honestly be the best thing he's done in years lol. I kid. I actually don't think the show would have Sonny kill a (mostly) innocent woman.

The show can definitely not afford the original Penthouse. They can't even afford the awesome staircase. I know John died and all, but I really wish Brady would get a bit more on the Tate/Sophia adoption situation. It appears those two are just vibe wishing an adoptive family to show up?

Finally buy a set for Brady so he doesn't have to live with his mom? Geez, is Sophia/Tate's kid going to move in next?

Well, it's apparently 3500 dollars retail so I don't think any of us can afford that 😂. I'd probably learn to sew a dress for Kristian for 3500 dollars.

Rocco is an awful name that we don't call out enough. I do know a Rocco in real life so the name exists. Daisy is whatever and kind of cute. It's like a sister name to Violet so I have trauma lol. I just wish Michael would be more intentional with his kid's names. They feel like someone picked them out of a hat with no reason behind it.

I'd keep Rory's Michael. Everyone else can leave. I still can't get over the name Daisy.

Yeah. I was just imagining Willow and Drew off my screen with their stupid kids.

GH just hates drama. How long are we going to sit on the secret? Willow and Drew will be in Washington DC married with 3 more kids before Nina fesses up.

I don't know why the show continues to just keep the Nina/Drew secret. It's not even brought up in conversation anymore.

Rent the Runway needed Kristian's ugly Dolce & Gabbana dress back or Days would have to pay more.

Lol. Kristian just decided to change, but Missy got stuck in her suit all show and Julie had to wear that heavy costume jewelry all day.
