Yeah, makes sense. Everyone just always calls Rafael "Rafe" including his own immediate family. I wonder if there's any special reason Javi calls him by a different nickname.

Thanks! That's what I thought, but I wasn't positive.

I know this is a dumb question but I can't ever really make out what nickname Javi is calling Rafe. It sounds like Rafa? or is he saying Rafi? Closed captioning just says "Rafe". Is that just a specific pronunciation?

I had this same thought too. I just don't know who would believe that on the show. At this point the walls are closing in on Cyrus, but no one is actually making any moves. He could realistically just skip town at this point and disappear.

I agree the ending today was good. I still don't know how Cyrus killing Elizabeth would help anything. But then I have never understood Cyrus's motivations on this to begin with.

So there are so many things wrong with this fakeRafe story, but I'll just start with two on Jada's end. 1. She was previously married to a guy with DID and doesn't suspect a thing here in regards to a medical diagnosis or even ask Kayla about the after effects of Rafe's coma. 2. She was going to marry Rafe. He never mentioned he once had an imposter.? Sure, everyone assumes he's dead, but that's a story I would tell my future spouse. So, okay Jada can't figure it out. There are multiple people in town including Rafe's own sister who are aware Rafe has a doppelganger and no one suspects a thing.

There was way too much of Anna/Jason talking about how much they value one another as friends. It's weird GH. Please stop. I agree about Dante/Lulu. I meant to add that in my post. They were definitely the best part of the show and the conversation helped walk back a lot of issues I initially had with Lulu's return.

Yeah. Between the Lucky recast, Brennen recast, and Spinelli setting Lucas up with that model or whatever this was a rough episode. The Anna and Jason scenes felt hours long and I don't like when we get "wacky, silly" Mac. Obviously, it goes without saying the show gets negative points for Chase singing.

😂 I feel bad saying this, but those Liz/Lucky scenes were so awkward. Add in our first Tobias appearance and Aiden's acting ability and I just felt for Becky. It felt like everyone in the scenes were a little lost and BH just kept trying her hardest to make it work. The pace of this reunion has been so slow. I could have waited a few more weeks for JJ to be back.

I always thought it was a very intentional choice on Kelly's part to call in "sick" or whatever after she found out she was fired. If GH/FV/TPTB really wanted to add insult to injury they just would have permanently just recast Sam with LH. Who knows though? I wonder if the Network/Frank, etc. is happy with how the Cyrus story is going? Between Sidewell/Cyrus we've lost Sam, Dex, and Michael and I am still bored.

Lol. I don't even remember that Sam/Jason story. I thought it was recent, but maybe I was just thinking of Baby Irene's funeral. You know I have a hard time ranking Sam's "important" moments though.

Didn't Lindsay Hartley play some important scenes for Sam as well?

Well, there are scenes where Kristen literally tells Brady she's going to be his new mother in 1997. I'd link them, but you know, it's impossible to do that with all the copyright strikes. I know it's no EJ SORAS'ed situation, but aging Belle/Brady too soon messed a lot of things up in the Days universe.

It doesn't look awkward physically and I do like them together, but maybe they should just have Holly graduate before anything happens. I did get a little weirded out that he was talking to a high school girl in lingerie for an extended period of time 😂

Should we not be creeped out that adult Doug3 is in love with a high school student? They are actually cute, but he's of legal drinking age at least and it's a little strange. It would get a side eye in real life for sure. I know Days has never been great with social issues, but I don't understand why race doesn't play a bigger part in the adoption. It would make more sense if Mrs. Choi wanted an Asian, Christian family to raise her grandchild and be more concerned about Johnny/Chanel being an interracial couple. I mean, let's face it, there is pretty much no way Johnny/Chanel are going to pass the religion test here. He was literally once possessed by the Devil and Chanel is sexually fluid. We know both Johnny and Chanel are good people, but The Choi's are probably going to be a little weary of a couple on their second marriage together already and the fact Chanel once dated Johnny's twin sister.

I feel like Kristina yaps about Ava killing Morgan sometimes, but I can't remember the last time Carly mentioned him. Morgan's entrance into the world is memorable to me. It brought me one of my favorite Sonny/Carly moments. When Sonny shot Carly in the head by accident while she was giving birth. I really can't remember anything adult Morgan did besides date Kiki and Ava.

Oh, for sure. She's a great actress, but GH made her look horrible with hair/makeup and kept her for at least a year too long.

I forgot both Sabrina and Britt were allegedly gay icons. Kelly Thiebaud is just a cold actress and inherently unlikeable, IMO. Similar to RC's Skye. They can be decent utility players and work in some sense at different times but Britt in particular had very little depth besides constant medical issues and had to birth one of Lulu's kids of course. She was meant to be the heavy in the Patrick/Robin/Sabrina plot and they kept Britt far too long because that's what GH does. Lisa Niles walked so Britt could run. She worked fine with Steve, but as you said, she was practically the only actress available not named Liz, Sam, or Carly at that point.

Lol! Maybe I should ask who likes Morgan?

I liked Morgan a little better than Britt. BC and KT turned me off so long ago with their comments that I just don't care. They basically both asked to be killed off and........now are available because they can't book work. I am not advocating adding more characters to the canvas, but I would giggle if both Morgan and Britt were recast. I'll give Kelly a bit of credit for make a meaningless character somewhat relevant. I was never a fan of that Dr. Obrect/Faison/Nathan/family era though and to me she's sort of in the same category as Nelle, Sabrina, Sasha, Willow who are all related to some people on canvas just because.

Outside of you, me and Vee I thought people liked Morgan. I assumed BC was popular. I could be wrong though lol. People seemed to love Kelly T. and she generally was as idiotic as Brian.

It's strange the show has kept him really dead. His death had zero impact on me because I always assumed he'd be back at some point. Morgan isn't really missed on the canvas. Sometimes Sonny talks about him, but other than that no one really cares lol. I have always thought Morgan was a more interesting character than Michael though.

Instead of the custody trial we've heard about for MONTHS that was resolved in 2 scenes with what I assume was the same 50/50 split they had before, I would have had Ava reveal at the trial that Morgan was the father. I can't believe what a huge waste of time this entire "story" was. The ending was so anti-climatic. With Michael gone a case could be made to bring Morgan back, but I don't care one way or the other. We know Brian Craig is available though lol.

Lol! I am still traumatized by Steven Lars Webber singing Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah", but I will allow it. Morgan should have been made the father years and years ago.

Avery serves more of a purpose than Donna, but I would discard both. In the nicest, non violent way. 😂 Lol! I would say Violet and Wiley are the most obnoxious kids ever and James is a winner and Avery/Donna fall somewhere in between.
