B&B March 2022 Discussion Thread
Speaking of Trump, Nick and his haircut kinda resembled The Donald, at least from the back. Deacon, Whip, and Grant should have been included. Not necessarily as loves bus as some of her men, like GH did for Brenda upon her return.

Y&R: Old Articles
"harder" is exactly what comes to mind when I think of OG Diane and her intensity. Making her a villain was a great turn for her story. At first I was against Victor in that he wooed Diane away from Jack only to go back to Nikki. Then I read up their history and realized it was karma for what Jack & Di did to Patti. Still though, Victor was bastard for leaving her like that.

Y&R: Old Articles
With Diane Jenkins back on modern y&r, I had no idea Susan Walters made appearences as late as 2010! As much as I like Walters, my favorite Alex Donnelly was recast due to age if I'm correct? If that was the case, then that sucks. Diane should have never been killed off. Maura West wasn't all that bad, but she might have been bettet in her own role.

General Hospital March 2022 Discussion Thread
So many motives are confusing as someone said. Ryan being her dad clears some of it up, like why she went that far in terrorizing Ava. But why does Spencer doubt that Esme could have filmed the sex tape, when he's fully cohnizent of her capabilities? Why does Spencer hate his dad so much? The playing dead motive seems stretched. Why doesn't Spencer leave Esme for Trina already? Is he just a f***kboy? Loved the flashbacks between Carly and Liz, much like the Sheila flashback we got on B&B.

Y&R March 2022 Discussion Thread
Had no idea that this was going to happen, especially given that we saw Diane die (even though it's a soap lol). Ill take the OG Diane back as her cousin her something too, but thats me being greedy! I know this storyline will be DULL, what a shame, great to see Susan again.

What would your major B&B twist be?
Rewrite of of my idea for Y&R in the "6 Monts to Live thread". Justin maintains control of Spencer -- with Ridge's support---and Dollar Bill is basically his b💲💲ch for a while Lauren returns with husband Michael to expand her dept. store or something. Michael resents giving up his DA job in Genoa City. Fenn who was in jail gets released, gets into alot of crap, messing up his parent's marriage. Lauren cheats with $Bill. Fen and other junkies rob the Forrester Mansion during which Eric sustains an undetected head injury. Sheila saves Eric and manipulates the brain injured senior into becoming his wife again. Lauren learns Sheila's been withholding Eric's medication and stealing some of his money, but is neutralized when Sheila uncoveres Fen was in the robbery. Bill gets Spencer back somehow then goes on a rampage and takes over Forrester. Lauren leaves him and allies with Sheila, Brooke & the Forresters, successfully regaining the company when a vengeful *late 90s era edge* Michael intervenes. Sheila ends up as CEO, as she's been stealing assets as well to gain majority shares. She uses Justin who has knowlge of business to help her. In the end Lauren somehow takes down Sheila. Sheila looses controlling interest but remains on the board to keep her around long term. Sheila exposes Fen who gets rehab and probation when he snitches on the person who planned the robbery and actually injured Eric. Eric gets proper treatment, returns to his right mind and gets an annulment. Lauren repairs her marriage, and so on...

General Hospital March 2022 Discussion Thread
It was satisfying to see Carly snatch Esme up. Shouldn't people be reluctant to mess with Sonny's kids/step kids? Then again it would severely limit plot if Sonny's loved ones didnt have antagonist conflicts because the agressor would be too scared to mess with Sonny's kids. ( ie. Keifer & Kristina, Michael & Nelle). Plus the show hasn't done a good job at making Sonny intimidating possibly to cement his ethical anti/hero crimminal image. Intimidating is moreso Manny Ruiz.

It's interesting seeing these two interact considering their history together. it brings me back to the scenes where Sheila cut hair off his head as a baby to threaten Stephanie over her kissing James. I hope we get some mention of that in the dialogue or even a flashback.

Euphoria (which I haven't watched) or Riverdale would make more sense as college shows based on the very adult scenarios the characters are in.

In their shoes I'd be mortified especially because the tape was secretly recorded w/o concent but... The fact that they're in college, not high school (and that they're a couple), softens the blow--no pun intended🥁 Especially in this age of onlyfans where college age kids are releasing their content purposefully, it seems like this would be less embarrassing (assuming everyone on campus doesn't know each other that well).

ABC vs CBS Daytime vs NBC Daytime
Even in the night time the competition was soely between CBS and ABC. CBS had Knots, Falcon Crest, and Dallas. ABC had Dynasty. What was NBC's answer to this? All I know of was Flamingo Road.

we wait years for a mention of keemo to learn that he's dead. Y&r is limping with severe blood loss into it's 50th anniversary where quality is concerned.

Actors who could/should have played other characters on their show.
Brenda Epperson and Nina Arveson looked alot to me. I could see Nina as Ashley but Not Brenda as Cassaundra, Brenda was too nice.
