The first one gave me mixed feelings. But this one got me excited. I definitely like the vibe.

Mmmm...Shawn...

From what I can tell, I believe it. So many people still want Vanna to happen. I was a fan maybe, but I'm over it at this point. Especially if it reduces Anna to Whiny Anna who I really do not like. I agree. But I just recently noticed that now he has no family in town. I don't want them back, but it just made me go Hm. But I'm here for always having that Good Guy/Hero archetype...usually a cop...on soaps.

Wow. So Poppy and Finn really slept with each other??? Meeeeessssssss!!!

I was just about to say...wait. Ned knows??? lol. I mean that would be cool if he had done it in the past. But unless the writers just do something sloppy, it does seem like fanfiction at this moment with what's been shown on screen. It's almost making me what to go back and see if I can find the Brooke/Chase wedding scenes to see what Lois said about Gio's family again to see if it feels like a made-up story. Almost.

Yeah. Unlike Laura and Chris can sell it...and I'm sure they will sell something because they are both good actors...it's a shame that these writers can't do nuances to save their lives and didn't pick up on the nuances in PM's run that would have made an actual Carly/Brennan/Anna triangle interesting to watch rather than something that turned out to not (immediately at any case) be DOA.

Well he has enough power to keep looping JPS back into his role of Weakest Cassadine ever so...but seriously... Thank you for all of this tea. I did not know that MB had even had one. It does put the potential of his breakdown story under PM in perspective.

Yeah. I could almost find an excuse in my head for Lois's actions, but even I would be hard pressed. The best I got was that Lois made a bit show of showing off Gio and the rest of the family under PM's run which gave off a vibe of a secret...just not that she was hiding a baby from her daughter. And that...I feel like the writers are going to say that she maneuvered Gio onto the canvas because she's always known where BLQ's baby was. And I just don't see her keeping BLQ completely clueless on the baby's whereabout all these years. Where's the Carly gif of her saying I don't buy it. I like seeing Rena and Amanda in a story, but I expect this to have the same reaction/backlash as Peter is Anna's son and Cody's is Mac's son. And at least with Cody and Mac, they were able to find a way to make that work.

Yeah, now that they are seriously getting into it, I know you can go on about it for days. I can't believe they are doing this to her character. I also can't believe that BLQ at least knows its Dante and said it onscreen. I was like ugh. And it sounds like Lois does know which I suspected where the baby is while BLQ has no idea. Just very un Lois like. Very don't care. I miss the days where if this was to happen (like with Nikolas and Laura) there was a plausible timeline for it AND it was a shock.

tbf, you never know. Given Frank's history. As I've said more than once. But for now...I'll stay devil's advocate.

Well tbf, it does seem like people hit milestones roughly the same time to when they were introduced so I can't fault on that.

Hmmmmm indeed. Exactly! Ha! Someone should write a tell-all or do a whole dishing tea interview at this point.

Ooooo

That's how I was when I was playing catch-up. With MO now recurring, I feel like she's going to be like Where's Waldo?

Okay...true.

Very.

Perhaps it was not Frank. For once.

Now that I see Chris's start date...WOW...talk about keeping a recast under wraps. What's REALLY going on? Okay...I could see that, too. Though I'm currently scared to get on a plane.

Ooooooooooo

Well, I feel Chris can play and have loved him as Teen Joey on OLTL and even what little I saw of him on Y&R. And he most def has aged like fine wine. And he's played just about everything you can think of outside of soaps so this should be interesting. That said...I will miss my Beast. He had great chemistry with FH and LW. And it is sad to not see a potential triangle go the distance. lol

I agree. The best thing about Ian being back was the renewed focus on Mariah and CG ran with it, too. If I was disappointed about anything, it was that they didn't stretch Ian's presence out longer so there would be a bigger wedge between Mariah and Tessa. It was organic drama given Tessa's own past and I liked it.

I've been liking all the new Gaga stuff.

Well at least KKL made it into the Top Ten but darn.

Amen to that.

SLC Part 2 of the Reunion was just as solid as Part 1. Though I admit...I liked NY's better. This part had a lot of the things that I just don't like about reunions. Andy not letting topics breathe. Lisa and Heather continued to be mean girls and try to gang up on Bob. And honestly, Heather just needed to STFU. Just popping in on other people's topics because she had not a thing to talk about herself. But there were also good moments. Mary's whole segment which had me crying throughout. Then there was Andy being messy by having the last part of the reunion be about the Mary/Meredith friendship where they argued a bit, hugged it out, and then a new leg of the Meredith/Angie K rivalry was hinted at. It seem clear that Meredith really did not like how close Mary/Angie K have gotten. And there was of course, all things Bob as she talked about her husband and their marriage. And the amount of Monica mentions this episode were insane. With rollback from Production (and Andy's earpiece). LISA. Girl, you know you didn't give Bob an apology!! smh. I think Mary said it best. Lisa was coming across like she was jealous of Bob. Outside of those last five episodes, Bob's had a good freshman season. She came transparent. And that made her 1...better than most of them and 2...a FAN FAVE. And that clearly burned Lisa given how she came into this reunion like she was throwing Bob under the bus. I mean outside of her being checked by Bob's Hubby, being right about one of the rollbacks, and having steam come out of her ears at the Mary/Angie K friendship, she didn't really give anything this part. HEATHER. MEREDITH. I giggled when Bob's Hubby rolled his eyes at her being so overdramatic when they were discussing Monica and those Season 4 clips. But respect for her about to do a walk out until Andy and Production found those clips to show what was said. Once a lawyer, always a lawyer. Not sure if that means Seth doesn't have a sidepiece, but it did show she still knows her verbatims...and that she came ready at the reunion. Outside of that, there appeared to be a slight jealousy over Mary/Angie K's growing friendship. Especially that Mary confided in Angie K about her son over Meredith. And there was Andy stirring the pot. I found that whole segment very interesting because for me it felt like a visual version of last week's 'social friend' conversation. Except Mary and Meredith hold each other higher than Lisa to Bob. LITTLE GIRL. I wished she had found her Ashley Darby during this part. The one thing she had that I noticed was how she fell apart herself during Mary's segment on her son. It really hit home with her. And I liked Mary still kept having her back. ANGIE K. God bless her for being there for Mary. Outside of small bouts with Meredith, she just seem like she was there to support Mary. I didn't mind that. Or her FOINE husband. MARY. MVP of this part. Her segment was very telling. Everyone cried...including the audience cuz I was sitting there crying and Andy. So it was VERY noticeable that Lisa WAS NOT. But ignoring her. It was very well done. And Mary still said her piece when she could. And she had Little Girl's back. And I thought their scene was sweet. And I loved the Angie K stuff with her as well. Even she knew Andy was being a little messy with her and Meredith. BOB. Love her classy way of saying STFU to the Irrelevant One. lol. Still brought the real. The reveal that Bob's Hubby did not know that the reason Bob found out he was cheating was because Gwen saw it on his phone by accident. Oooh, his face. And he don't watch the show. Thankfully, she appears to let him know what to expect ahead of time so he's not completely blindsided though. I found the segment on her marriage intriguing for sure. And that there's love there. Part 3 looks interesting, but is it wrong that I'm more interested in NY and RHOP's reunion? lol. I guess the air has been let out a bit. Lol. More messy than the trailer.
