Gotta tell y’all, I actually didn’t expect all of that lol

Definitely. Him/Dimitri really was the most wasted actor and character under Ron’s pen. Gwen getting back at Leo for all of that would make her return so worth it.

Mac being such a Yenta today was definitely not on my Bingo card 😂😂😂 And just like I suspected, I really enjoyed today’s round of Brook Lynn vs. Lulu. And I thought Jason was actually used pretty effectively as well. And now that Gio knows everything that Brook Lynn did too, I can’t wait to see what happens next for all of them. Or if they go where I suspect they may go #Giulu As for Willow, WTF?

One of the worst storylines I’ve ever seen. I want to forget it so badly, but Peter Porte won’t let me 😍😂😂😂😂 I didn’t realize what Ron was trying to do 😂😂😂

Gwen, and her intro storyline were actually very popular on here. Having her play a part in Laura’s death was the thing that just ruined it for everybody, IIRC. The Dimitri storyline was just gross and disgusting. And so bad and poorly written that I actually started to feel bad for Gwen again.

If we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, they should at least have some good conflict. They’re boring too 😂 Even if I liked them, I’d think they were boring

Welcome back, Gwen... now go away 🖕 I love that Chad and Julie had no time for her crap. Like I said yesterday, this all just seems so pointless and unnecessary. It would have made much more sense for them to have brought Theresa back full time. Not only could she be used effectively in Tate's storylines, but she could also play a big part in the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Knowing Ron, he probably just did this so that Gwen and Leo could become besties again, which honestly makes me sick and kinda pisses me off a little. That's the last thing that needs to happen. The more that I think about it, Gwen was probably just meant to be a big F U to Abigail, which was probably the reason why he discarded her so easily, and disgustingly, once Abigail was dead. But now that they finally fired Ron's ass, and if we're stuck with Gwen, hopefully she makes Leo's life miserable. Maybe she'll pay a guy to seduce Javi away from him 😂😂 I admit I like seeing Javi in paramedic mode though. It adds more layers to his character, and it gets him out of that bubble that he's been stuck with Leo and the rest of the Hernandez's. Him and Kayla work well together too. Alex and Stephanie were kinda sweet today, but also kinda boring lol. They really, really need some good conflict. And, while I didn't hate Rafe being such a gossip girl with Gabi and Arianna, I couldn't help but cringe a little too 😂😂

I don’t think it looks good on either of them 😂😂

The continuity would have been so much better if producers, writers, etc. had just done there homework. In a 1979 episode, Cory Publishing held its 21st annual Board meeting, which means that, back then, the company was founded in 1958 lol

So, Vaughn said he loves animals. How ironic 😂😂😂 But he did look hot. And yeah, Emma will never be the bad guy in this situation, no matter how GH chooses to write it. Will anyone BTS ever realize that? But I am a little interested in whether or not this thing with Vaughn might cause problems between her and Gio. Dante/Lulu/Rocco was the best part of today. All three of them did a very good job. And for the first time in a long time, I didn't want someone to slap Lulu. She really is at her best as Rocco's mother. I'm curious to see where Rocco is going to go from here. And I'm also really looking forward to seeing the rest of the Lulu/Brook Lynn confrontation.

Just as long as she doesn't make peace with Leo.

I can even imagine it 😂 Gwen, strutting in, wearing the necklace and everybody stopping what they're doing and looking up in shock. End of episode. I'm still not a fan of Gwen but that would've been pretty good. If only Days had money 😂😂

Was it just my TV or was the audio not matching the actors movements today? There did seem to be a lot of filler today though. And the whole Xander/Felicity thing has always been unnecessary. But I did think that Sarah was used very well, both with Holly and then with Xander. I like that the show continues to build these relationships with Maggie and her daughter and granddaughter. And that Sarah and Xander are not immediately rushing back into a reunion. It's good drama and could lead to more good drama too. Let them be apart for a while, let them have new relationships before they inevitably find their way back to each other. Based on their scenes today, I'm looking forward to seeing how the writers make that happen over time. And yeah, Tate's a dumbass lol but he was really sweet and dorky throughout the episode, even though him and Holly being so happy and willing to go on a trip while Sophia is "about" to give birth makes them look even more selfish than they already have been. I've never been against them being so selfish, but I really think that that should play more into both of their characters. I did kind of feel bad for Sophia too. As for Julie and her necklace, this is another thing that's just not necessary. And definitely a Ron storyline that Paula/Jeanne should not have followed through on.

Agreed, that on BTG, the “British style” is not working at all. And I’ll be honest, that style is one of the (several) reasons why I think B&B sucks. But I also agree that BTG is not at that level and is better than B&B

And King of the Ring 2001 😂😂😂😂

Or a nice long walk through Central Park 😉 Next stop, Summer Streets! 😂😂😂

I see they're not wasting any time with Xander and Gwen 😂

Other things that I'm streaming Knots Landing, Season 7 Third Watch, Season 5 Beverly Hills 90210, Season 1 Frasier, Season 1 Growing Pains, Season 4 Family Ties, Season 3 Three's Company, Season 5 Is this better, @Soapsuds? 😂😂😂

My favorite time of the year! 😍😍😍😍😂😂

Agreed that the Sophia/Melinda thing seems very Ron-like. And so does One Stormy Night. But some things, like the Alex/Gabi thing being dropped and the potential Brady/Sarah pairing feel more like Paula/Jeanne. And I feel the same way about the improved writing for Kayla, Paulina, etc. As for Doug III, I actually like how complex he is, as a character. He wants to be this good guy/hero for Holly, Julie and everybody but at the same time also has a lot of flaws. And being horny is one of them 😂😂 That’s why I wish they had really pushed the feud between him and Tate. I really enjoyed the little bit of it that we got That was definitely true for one actor/character.

Hopefully, Gwen doesn’t make peace with Leo 🙏🙏

By Frank probably. In order to placate Mo. The lack of self-awareness that Laura had yesterday was ridiculous. She and GF deserve a lot better, especially after all these years.

Today was mostly about everything surrounding Johnny’s case but I didn’t mind it. I’m glad that Johnny and EJ tried to rehash the events of EJ’s shooting and who came and went from the house that night. It helps make the timeline more clear lol their scenes were nice but I’ll never agree with the two of them making peace so soon after everything that happened. Hopefully, the storyline doesn’t transition into Johnny and EJ versus Chanel. Speaking of Chanel, I like that there’s conflict between her and Paulina but I had mixed feelings about their scenes though. The writing in there scene didn’t seem as mature as it has been lately. But I did enjoy her scenes with Abe. And I love that Marlena had no time for Kristen’s crap. Too bad that Brady did though. I really hope that everything that Rachel’s going through doesn’t pull them closer together. The ship has sailed for Bristen. Marlena didn’t seem to have any time for Belle’s crap either lol I do kinda like that Belle’s been put back on the case. It could lead to a pretty good mess lol Stephanie and Alex were boring though, but Stephanie revealing that she plans on doing some PR work for EJ and the hospital could lead to something interesting happening. The two of them have sort of been taken out of the Kiriakis family drama, and I really hope that they’re put back into it soon. I’m also not really sure how one porn book could save a massive company like Titan 😂😂 And I gotta admit, I kinda like the shade of blue that Johnny and Chanel used for their apartment. The ending cliffhanger was really good too.

Yeah... Laura is the worst Mayor ever 😂😂😂 I wonder if Genie Francis, or anybody on set for that matter, has a problem with the way that Laura's being written lately. I do kinda feel bad for all these guys though, having to work on a holiday. But yeah, Gio 😍😍😍🔥🔥 I knew I was going to love Tracy looking out for Gio today, and I was not disappointed at all. I expected him to pull away too, but I hope he comes around soon. Gio and Tracy's relationship was always so nice and it's too bad that we don't see it that much anymore. Did King Mo order his loyal peasant, Frank to have all of GM's family scenes be only with him? 😂 It's at the point where they're starting to dumb Gio down a little, and I'm not a fan of that. And I'm definitely looking forward to those Lulu/Rocco scenes next week. And how they're going to be written. Btw, when did Trina become so anti-Quartermaine? Pics will be in the hotness thread as soon as I can find them 👍😂😂😂

Sophia getting annoyed with Tate over time, because of Holly, because of Doug III and everything was a missed opportunity. And could've provided a better explanation for her actions.
