As someone else said, it is absolutely wild Sam and Jason got no real farewell scene - him tagged onto her scene with Drew re: parental logistics, their standing feet apart while she and Drew embraced. I never liked Jasam but that's crazy. Oh: And I do think they are potentially going there with Cody and Tracy, finally. But I don't trust this team to do it right at all.

I mean, apparently. So I think that's what's coming and I don't expect much from it knowing this show and Black characters. I think they hired GM because Frank thought he was cute and talented and then for whatever reason, maybe the writing turnover with Mulcahey out, he went nowhere onscreen. I don't blame the kid but there is nothing there with Gio at present. I do absolutely think FV will wait til Trina is gone (if he can get her to walk - he's tried and failed before with others) and think he can then put over Spencer with the white lady of his choice. It's so pathetic. In other news: Dr. Terry continues to fail to convince me she did not simply study all these medical terms on Duolingo last night. She sounds like she is greeting at Benihana when she rattles off this stuff, or like a sniper has his sights trained at her head. And she's out here with Lucky and Laura like ‘let’s burn your dying daughter in effigy now, why wait?’ Like she wants to throw her in the KFC roaster right now! They are obviously pinning all these medical mishaps on Carlo Rota a.k.a. Sidwell, the insomniac jewel buffoon who can't play cards, out for revenge. Another deeply threatening jack-of-all-trades villain from the crew that brought you creaky Cyrus "I Ran Over Dad in the Driveway! 😭" Renault, Peter August and of course Valentin. I can't wait to still be seeing more of him blustering his way through boring scenes a year from now while Frank has added Sidwell's son, daughter, ex-wife and presumably Natalia is his first wife or something. Then we'll all get to endure 50 overhyped tweets on the GH hashtag about how much 26 people with too much time on their hands are enjoying the 'Sidwell-Ramirez family.' I am so tired. Also, I'm sorry, Van is doing a decent job but his hair looks like a rug.

There is no way you could pair Bechtel with any young woman (or man, probably) on the show, height aside. He reads like a child. It's so gross. And typical of Frank's GH.

LMAO! I think he'd try if he thought he could get away with it. But Bechtel is too young compared to NAC and looks it, especially opposite the other women on GH. I have begun to suspect more and more they should've seen if Mazza could play the arrogant schemer side of Spencer as opposed to the grinning cocker spaniel he is currently essaying as poor Gio - you never know! And he has a nice body which they don't show off. It was in hindsight a mistake IMO not to recast Spencer then and there, though the tinhat conspiracy side of me makes me wonder if FV prefers it so he can dodge the interracial supercouple issue for as long as possible.

I'll believe Violet's gone when she's gone two years, lol. I don't see Frank letting her go for long, or she'll get the Bechtel treatment where they constantly bring her back hoping she can be part of the teen scene. (Same reason they haven't recast Emma.) I'm amazed they didn't keep Violet with BLQ and Chase permanently, and I suspect that might still happen.

Whoops: Important, and with a lot of good on the record quotes:

I just don't see a long-term viability in any triangle there. Dante and Sam was always a stopgap pairing designed to have some place to put two characters the regime had no interest in, and it's never been terribly popular so what's the point? There's no way I buy they wouldn't end over Lulu eventually. I'd be counting the days and I don't think a love triangle based on a C-pairing and a new recast has juice for longer than 6 months tops. And without that what else has Sam got going on? Not much.

Cuomo flipped fast after getting cancelled and fired from mainstream media, unsurprisingly. Not worth posting here, nor is the Daily Caller.

Speaking of, the Nevada early/mail vote rollercoaster (which I do not recommend following) continues - another large GOP early dump (leading to Ralston swiftly declaring a new 'rural firewall' for the Republicans which is a bit much IMO), followed by this: A good thread (Ralston-endorsed): This peak/valley cycle is likely to keep happening for at least a few days, so we probably shouldn't obsess over it.

Again, states like NV seem likely to have a reverse 2020 thing going on with early vote - that was a very unique situation, and rural/old people vote early. I'm not going to lose my mind over it.

The timeline for Holly's pregnancy is confirmed to be literally impossible. She was onscreen the entire nine months in 1992! And for almost a year after! Ridiculous nonsense.

I do think the NPA vote will be key. But I also think we have a very good shot at many of those states people are qvelling about.

I mean Biden. The conversation they're having moves from Harris' current totals (where she's not losing as much of the Black/Latino vote as once speculated) to months-old predictions that Joe would lose a lot as well. Cohn gets very angry when Carlson suggests predictions of Trump's major minority support have been a mirage all along.

This is only the OP, but Nate Cohn loses his shít here on Adam Carlson in a long thread that is likely to be deleted, then walks it back and apologizes. The Times and especially many polling people really get angry when anyone suggests Biden might not have lost all those votes.

Meanwhile:

He's been doing that on the stump for weeks, it's not new.

Another for the @marceline tally. I can buy that he's decaying, but at the same time he still does stuff like the McDonald's stunt or this barber shop nonsense. How are they comfortable with some of these outings and not others at this point if it's that bad?

Makes sense:

I think NV (along with likely a few other states) is just going to be a bit of a rollercoaster for at least a few days. I also suspect a bit of an inverted pattern from 2020 which was an unusual situation - it's natural we wouldn't have as much mail/early vote post-COVID. But it definitely looks a lot better this morning vs. last night. Obsessing over it for two weeks is not sustainable. But I might a little bit!

The Wikipedia page for Knots is actually very helpful for the crossover episodes sync, and has a full section devoted to where they connect. That should be all you really need. But I also cross-checked airdates on occasion, and the now sadly defunct Knots Blogging site's recaps (still available through cache or the Wayback Machine) which interconnected them. I am only fully watching KL Season 7 and Dallas Season 9 (the Dream Season) in sync though, due to the creative swap with the showrunners. Otherwise I have largely skimmed and dipped in and out of small or large chunks of the run of Dallas over time because frankly, it's often boring and repetitious.

The Nevada rural turnout for the GOP was also very strong on Day 1. Do I think it's the end of the world, no - I think one of the outcomes below is very possible.
