Oh, we're not exactly weeping into our beers, trust me.

They also can't keep him on ice for two and a half more years should worst - 🤐 - come to worst. One way or another Biden will confirm someone.

Somehow, Bari Weiss continues marginalizing herself all the more:

I'll believe it when I see him. Habeas corpus!

These things are often superficial. AD is harder/stronger-featured in the face and has a more aggressive/masculine energy. Walters definitely looks younger. Plus, IIRC when AD got dumped her story was directly intersecting with MTS and a potential challenge to her character, which allegedly her husband the showrunner did not like. I believe it and it's been out there for years.

My PTV GH avatars used to change constantly with the absurdities of the Carlivati/Valentini era, so I thought why not add one here for old time's sake with something equally absurd?

It's the hair and makeup.

Out Noah the cuck goes!

Every time I've seen Alex Donnelley [sic] there is a visceral intensity to her anger or spite. You believe she's going to fùck someone up. It doesn't surprise me the network or EP might've preferred someone younger and/or less hard, but you don't get that everyday in daytime. I think Susan Walters is pretty good though.

If they wanted to impress me they'd say Rachel Locke.

Didn't they say Forrest Alamain was supposed to have died in the family pool?? Such wacky stuff.

Face Journeys, with Finola Hughes and Tristan Rogers: I love the second shot where she's downcast/'pensive' trying to keep a straight face, which does not last. The attempt at hip-hop dancing around 1:52 also sends me.

Jenny is clearly supposed to be enraptured with him. I know Monty was pushing Jenny Eckert hard as the central young ingenue. And yes, Connor performing live to his own music video is beyond extra. It is E! News Live.

Shawn looks pretty hot in these business suits. I'm gonna miss him.

Yeah, like I said: You can hear the opening melody of Autumn Breeze in FOTH (and in the piano music cue we've mentioned which I think came in with JFP, which emulates both). Ever since I noticed it awhile ago I can't stop hearing it. It's brilliant work and part of why the FOTH opening is IMO still timeless and should be updated and reinstated today.

Oh, it's been GIFed in the thread a few pages back I believe.

Seriously. I was waiting for him to get a bit more nasty with Paul before saying something because I try not to acknowledge him at all, but I've had enough. Imitation is not the sincerest form of flattery.

I mean, I think I definitely hear its opening in the opening of FOTH and I'm glad I'm not the only one. But YMMV.

I forgot Murphy found Diane's extremely dead body and it washed up on the bank! LOL. Could Diane have mocked up a corpse and paid off the coroner, etc? I know she was autopsied, but so were so many people on soaps. (The Jack Deveraux organ donation on DAYS is still the apex for me) I should add the big reveal that Nikki did it - on a Super 8 film reel - is straight out of stuff like Brian De Palma and "Blow Out" IMO, and while very stylish is another great example of MAB lifting film stuff while telling bad stories. If you're gonna lift from the best, which soaps do all the time, do good work!

I cannot look directly at the looks of admiration and amazement the longtime cast are giving him (other than Finola lol). The cut to Faison cracks me up though.

I'd do that tbh. Sue me.

I still don't understand anything about the Laurelton saga with Terri Brock. I am amazed we apparently never heard of her again. He absolutely is and the more you watch the worse it gets. Please find this scene.

I'm surprised no one is lobbying for Chandler to get an Emmy and/or SAG award for adjusting himself on-camera in those sweatpants. Amazed that made it through.

They better not leave the Ashland story at that, lol.

ETA: Sorry, it's above.
