This sounds good at the beginning. But I'm not sure what his final point is.

@YRfan23 Thanks for doing the stats. Fyi, Katrina Bowden was listed in the closing credits through 3/12/2021 as "Florence Fulton". And then changed to as "Florence Logan" since the credits of 3/29/2021. The character name was legally changed in episode of 3/25/2021 when Brooke, Donna, and Katie presented her with a surprise document with name change from Fulton to Logan. Bowden was listed in the contract credits as "Logan" since 3/29/2021 until end of Nov. 2021 when she was removed from contract credits. But the character name change wasn't updated in the episode count archive. (I didn't check every week, so I'm only assuming that the credits showed her consistently as Logan). LOL, I didn't notice it before, probably because I didn't want this retcon to her being Storm's daughter.

Re: the Jan 6th anniversary speeches by Biden and Harris. It felt to me that they are using this as a springboard to advance the voting rights legislation. (They didn't mention anything about that in their speeches. Just an impression I had.)

January 6, 2022 Vice President Harris and President Biden address the nation from Statuary Hall inside the US Capitol building, on the anniversary of the attack. via C-SPAN . Just the speeches. No commentary.

I see that Michael Fairman deleted that tweet and his link. SOD had also tweeted about this and then deleted it. Daytime Confidential clarified: https://daytimeconfidential.com/2022/01/02/susan-flannery-to-appear-on-e-daily-pop "UPDATE: Flannery's appearance on Daily Pop has been cancelled for today. No word on if or when it will be rescheduled."

The photo chart was photographed in the makeup room (accidentally caught in the background of a selfie) on December 15th. We catch glimpses of this type of cast photo chart every year or two when someone accidentally shows it in the background of their pic, and usually each time (but not always) the chart has been updated with a new arrangement of photos ... but we don't know how often they update the photochart. We don't know the exact date hat this version of the photochart was created. It could be recent, it could have been there for a few months. But it's probably recent since all of the pics came from professional publicity headshots - and Linsey G. did new headshots in early December. And yeah we don't know how long the actors newly on contract (Zach etc) ... may have been on contract prior to this glimpse of this version of the photochart.

One year ago this week, the January 6th terrorists attacked the US Capitol. To read how the day went, start reading on page 2287 of this thread. We were in here all day posting what was happening as it happened. Through page 2309 of this thread. Twenty-four pages of hell. Also courage as the electoral college votes were counted and certified by responsible politicians -- despite the terrorists' efforts to derail it, and crazed politicians' efforts to derail it. And the police who protected the congress, senate, and staffers. It is exceedingly triggering for our country to remember all that. It's also exhausting. And it was so refreshingly wonderfully boring to see Biden's presidency. But we must never forget Jan. 6, 2021. Don't bring the participants to fame. Bring them to shame. And focus on the heroic members of congress, senate, staffers, and police who did their jobs to make sure the election was certified. Never forget.

SOD reported last week that Missy and Matt are leaving week of Jan 3rd, and they way SOD wrote it, a reader might think it sounded as if they are totally gone, or gone for now ... for a long break or longer. But it could be that SOD got MA and MR leaving because of the show releasing the spoiler that Jack and Jen go back to Boston Jan 6th. In other words maybe SOD didn't know Matt was back on contract when they printed that. And maybe soapcentral was making assumptions based on what SOD said. I dunno.

My friend is a doctor at a clinic that does covid testing. He said that two weeks ago, covid test results were 33% positive. This past week, the tests are resulting in 50% positive. He knows the science, but he is still stunned by the accelerated transmission rate resulting from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day gatherings.

update, the tweeted pics from nbcdays contain one old photo. Ciara and Ben toasting with beer is from Oct. 12.

Fyi -- the Ciara/Ben picture with beer bottles is old picture, from October 12, 2021 episode

Thanks so much for the recommendation!

I've never seen The Golden Girls. My fondest memories of Betty White were from my childhood, watching her on Password. I thought it was so interesting that she and Allen Ludden were married. Then I remember watching her on The Match Game. I remember her on The Mary Tyler Moore show, too. I just read the Betty White wikipedia page. Before reading that, I probably knew about only 10% of her life. I bet even her biggest fans/followers don't know everything she accomplished - she's done so much! It's quite amazing and inspiring. A good read. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betty_White I'm enjoying seeing all the clips from all the shows she's been in. I'm learning so much! Her comedy timing is AMAZING.

In my opinion, Delia Reid Ryan Coleridge had a completely different vibe than Kristen. She was always scheming to get whatever man she had set her sights on, and did some bad things that physically harmed people. But she seemed more like a Sami Brady schemer (to a much much greater extreme!) who had gone off the rails and had no boundaries. Just my perception.

You described Kristen as "a perfect tragic anti-heroine". WHAT? Kristen should NEVER be written that way! Kristen is a villain!

@Taoboi I'm so sorry to hear about your work situation. Thank you for being one of the actually responsible people at your job.

Mary Tyler Moore, Grant Tinker, Betty White, Allen Ludden. (Grant Tinker is Zach's grandfather) Zach posted the same pic to his instagram with the caption zach_atticus Gramps and Betty 💔 RIP to an absolute legend https://www.instagram.com/p/CYKR-aGvXeW/

The devil already stated out loud that it doesn't have a gender. I don't know if it has a preferred gender for sexual relationships either. It took on EileenKristen's form and tried to seduce John and Eric. It took on Steve's form and kissed Kayla. I suppose you could say that's "preference for opposite gender" but ... eh. It is whatever it wants to be, with whomever suits its purpose of creating chaos.

"Duke" is a small stuffed teddy bear that Rafe gave Nicole months ago, and then they agreed to share custody of it. Something about Rafe missing Orpheus's grandson David that Rafe briefly had custody off, and Nicole missing Eric who was in Africa. They use the bear to help with their loneliness. Rafe confides in it. In his mind, Rafe has been hearing the bear give him advice. (really!) It's a stupid thing that fans of all characters hate. Rafe and Ava are in a relationship and live together. Ava just learned that Rafe cheated by having sex with Nicole on the Basic Black conference table. Ava knew that Duke was a symbol of Rafe and Nicole's supposedly platonic friendship -- and now that Ava knows they had sex, she got pissed off and decapitated the bear and vowed revenge. The teddy bear Duke (recently decapitated) was a regular-sized teddy bear. Regarding the picture of the giant bear picture-- That giant bear has not been seen on the show. That picture is a behind-the-scenes pic of something we'll see eventually. (I just wasted five minutes of my life typing up that stupidity!)

Linsey Godfrey's instagram Dec. 4. The haircut matches. Not sure what this pic would look like if she faced directly at the camera.
