It's weird because Becky's hair doesn't bother me. It's clear it's straightened and she should grow it longer, but it looks thick and healthy. It's people like Sasha and Willow that walk around with limp hair hanging at their shoulder to match their personalities I suppose lol. Those hairstyles look undone. Some people on the show just look more 'put together' than others. I assume some of these actresses are just better at doing their own hair and fix it up.

They seem to be letting Annalynne McCord wear her hair natural on Days. It does look a bit different from scene to scene but it doesn't bother me. I also assume this is because Days doesn't have the budget to straighten her hair lol. I'll check out LW's hair the next time she's on. I really haven't noticed much of a difference. I also haven't really been looking because it's Carly lol.

That's interesting. I have never heard that before, but it does make sense. But Frank could just let her wear it curly all the time I suppose. You do have a point. Curly hair doesn't really suit Carly. Every woman on GH has variations on flat ironed/blown out hair and it's very homogenous. It's a shame to waste those pretty natural curls. Like I said, I haven't noticed her hair being bad lately, but she often wears things that are too casual and just not right for the character. Things I could never imagine Sarah or Tamara's Carly ever wearing. LW has mostly looked good throughout her run as Carly, but about a decade ago everything was backless or had cut outs and it was clear she wasn't wearing a bra. I thought that was more unflattering than anything she is wearing now. Also, Happy Thanksgiving my SON Friends!!!!

I wouldn't mind if they let Laura wear her hair naturally as well. The curls are pretty, but I guess straight hair looks more sophisticated. Her wardrobe is weak, but I do think it's what she likes to wear. It's just not the most flattering. Perhaps it looks better in person than on camera.

I agree Maura can successfully pull off a lot of looks but her hair isn't great. It's so brittle I'd be afraid to touch it. She looks great. I just think there are a few other people on the show with better hair. It does and makes LW look frumpy. She isn't at all. The show just either gives no notes on wardrobe for her or actively hate her. Sometimes it's very out of character. It's soccer mom.

I think you probably have to really unpack and talk about the GV Lucky years if you move forward with a Maxie/Lucky pairing, which the show probably wouldn't do. Laura's hair has always look great to me. Her wardrobe is atrocious and has been forever. It's not as bad as the years she just decided to go braless and things were hanging out, but it's not flattering. She has a pear shape and the show mostly tries to work against it. It's strange.

I will disagree about Maura. Shocking, I know lol. I don't think her hair is that great. She can pull off a bunch of looks but it looks a little fried. Too bleached. Laura has the best hair on GH. Although LLC/Becky H do have a thickness and poof ratio that is very good as well. A lot of hair on GH looks stringy and plain to be honest.

Very fair. This was just the awful one that was happening while she was talking to Lucky. So I kinda don't blame him for not wanting to get with that in the moment? It's probably one of the most light hearted scenes from Guza's 2010. Both Bradford and Steve could barely hold back their giggles and the show just shot the scene as is. It's one of the few times I am glad they didn't retake the scene and fix the sign because it was funny.

Hated Siobhan. She just never, ever worked even when the Balkan twist. KS had a really short platinum blonde poofy hairstyle at the time. It looked like this. I also found this delightful image of Jason getting out of prison to a welcome hoe sign Spinelli made from the same episode which never fails to crack me up.

@dragonflies 6 to 8 months ago I probably would agree with ditching both KS and Maxie at least for awhile. She's had a great turnaround lately and it's shocking. I'd be curious as to why you get rid of Maxie today. It's not like KS just appeared. She's been around for 20 years almost now.

Lol! No one is asking Amanda Setton to perform nude. Just basically do what every actor on soaps does and act out some romantic and sexy times? There have been several women on soaps decades older than AS that played romance believably and they weren't showing anything 'sexy'. They were just acting like they enjoyed sex. Setton doesn't look comfortable with the idea. This isn't about her beliefs. This is a business and a televised show. She really doesn't get to decide how she's portrayed especially if it's a detriment to the actual character.

I am sure a lot of actresses would gladly take on Brook Lynn and do the part justice. It's great Amanda has standards and morals. Unfortunately it does not work for her current role. I am wondering how many roles she thinks she can get as an actress with such strict modesty/moral codes. Acting is just not really that conducive to that. It's a shame because AS used to be a stand out talent. I think Josh can pick up movies on Hallmark pretty easily. He's handsome and charming, but bland enough to book parts.

Hallmark or God's Family Network sounds like a better fit for them. It's disappointing Brook Lynn became such a dud of a character. Not to woman shame, but I think it's more of a Amanda Setton problem than a Josh problem. He seems to be fine showing skin and I think he's just being a respectful co star taking her lead on these media responses.

As a female, I find it ridiculous to even think about putting on a full set of pajamas and a robe after sex and then going back to lie under covers. That's so much effort. They absolutely could find her a silky nightgown set with a silky robe to make it slightly believable. I have no idea what Setton's "modesty" rules are, but if these two are married on screen isn't that okay? You are acting out a character newly married on a tv show.

Yeah, I suppose they could have fire chemistry. I still don't see Lois wanting a life with a mobster/arms dealer/criminal. She couldn't stay with Ned for much lesser offenses. Lois has strong principle. She was never like Brenda or Robin who could turn a blind eye to things. She always was upfront and honest about Sonny/Jason's shenanigans.

Yeah, the entire thing with models/actors/singers on soaps is that they are in a small town. I would take L&B back in a second, but it's hard to believe these people are truly famous and not just playing at Luke's every weekend lol. I guess it would be Curtis's club these days instead. I think you could make it slightly believable by just one or two characters saying Lois and Brook are in New York working instead of basing their entire business in PC with PC characters and make it seem more expansive in general.

Unfortunately, I do. I am not the biggest fan of singing on soaps in general, but I hate when it's very marginally talented singers and that era had a lot of them lol. It's still hard for me to buy Ned as a rockstar, but at least that story was fun. Then again, I didn't buy Miguel Morez as a rockstar, but Ricky Martin has proven me wrong lol.
