Well, hmm, here's a casting spoiler: I'm not thrilled to see the latter again as I tired of him, but whatever, he was popular. -

I really don't think he thought that far, either.
He didn't plan any of this. He's just an idiot. He switched policy on Syria overnight.
This shït is just going to get worse until he is removed. He does not think beyond the moment.
I thought both GL and ATWT's finales were mostly bad, but I thought ATWT's was an especially dreadful, bland and lethargic affair which came and went in a day. It does not register in my mind because the show seemed dead to me years before they finally cancelled it. It felt like Chris Goutman* just wanted to be done for years, and that final hour was just his quick exit. You can say a lot about how GL went out (and I can and will) but it definitely didn't sleep its way into the grave - it committed to Ellen Wheeler's insanity all the way. Going out ugly beats going out without me noticing. That is a fantastic idea and would've been a lovely tribute for any soap to do to actors in a oft-recast role. Start and finish the day on the current actors but cycle through all the others throughout the scenes before going back to the incumbents. * - incidentally, there is a story floating around alleging that Moore would've done a bit more ("a solid ten, fifteen minutes") in her brief appearance had Goutman not jumped the gun when she agreed and attempted to schedule her in for multiple episodes.
Charles Pierce keeps it real.
Hmm: The headline is a typical Politico gotcha line but the piece is much more damning to the GOP.
Can't believe I missed the latter from three weeks ago.
I wasn't talking about Bernie. Or: Dude lost the primary because not enough Democratic voters wanted him, and because other voters did not bother to register properly in their state. It's a primary. People lose. The inept, coddled bureaucrats at the DNC have never been capable of a grand conspiracy to tie their shoes until suddenly Bernie Sanders has a problem winning the black and Democratic vote - then they're masterminds.
And insisting any claims of Russian involvement are "Cold War bigotry" and just an excuse for Clinton's loss.
Erik Prince (head of Blackwater) - brother of Betsy DeVos - set up a secret backchannel for Putin and Trump.
Rona Munro - the writer of the final classic Who story, Survival - is writing episode ten of the incoming season, The Eaters of Light.
WEHT the Nick character? After all that he just split.
The knives are out for Young Jared.
I just know they tried had to turn Tim Gibbs' Kevin on OLTL into Gary, I guess - made him a dark, glowering alcoholic, pushed a thing with Robin Christopher as fellow alcoholic Skye. Jill Phelps seemed to be flirting heavily with the idea of pairing them (I think they may have kissed at one point) but didn't go all the way, for whatever reason. And Kevin's drinking issues, while they existed somewhat later on, were never as prominent or serious as the Gibbs run - despite (IIRC) attending AA meetings with Skye in the JFP era, he was never confirmed as a full-on alcoholic. Supposedly Jill fired every woman he was paired with (save Gina Tognoni) for not taking off with Gibbs. I know Laura Bonarrigo was vocally upset about his replacing Kevin Stapleton. There were other rumors about the situation with Gibbs but I don't know if they have any basis in truth.
Naoko Mori (Toshiko, Torchwood) has a brief bit in Life as astronaut Hiroyuki Sanada's wife on Earth - she speaks entirely Japanese and gives birth over Skype.
