General Hospital January 2022 Discussion Thread
They do all seem very serious and dour but that's GH for you. I watched a scene with Alexis, Shawn and Sam and they were all head to toe in black, if I didn't know any better I'd think they were going to a funeral.

That's how it should be! Kids on other soaps have the plot lines of 30 year olds, it's stupid. Let these young characters BE YOUNG.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Soap Budgets
Y&R is extremely top heavy with veteran players and unlike Days and GH, which also employ a decent number of veteran actors, their vets are on contract. How much do we think Braeden/Thomas Scott/Bergman, etc. are earning?

Instead of a temp recast they decide to just recast him completely? Sus.

Andrew Madrigal? Though it seems like there was no follow up to Danny getting shot because in these episode it's the next day and he's not injured? He got shot in the gut! Twice! Maybe he was wearing a bulletproof vest or something. Speaking of Danny, he and Chris are terminally boring. They have 2 topics of conversation, David and how great they think each other is.

I never thought Robert Newman would want to be shackled to a soap again in his life. But a job's a job.

Y&R: Old Articles
I'm watching a bit of 1991 and did Danny get shot at the masquerade ball with no follow up? He gets shot on October 2/3 and then in the October 9 episode he's perfectly fine. Did I miss something? Also an almost daily occurrence in the dialogue is the phrase "_____ where _____ is concerned". Every episode!

It took me entirely too long to realize these weren't actual spoilers.

Soap Budgets
I wonder why we Y&R's budget cut is so apparent onscreen. GH doesn't look nearly as cheap and I'm pretty sure that show is produced for even less. Actually none of the other soaps look as cheap as Y&R, what's the deal? Y&R is rather top heavy with veteran talent. Maybe that's where the majority of the budget is going.

Y&R January 2022 Discussion Thread
Can someone clear this up for me, I was reading the Wikipedia article for Victoria and it says that she was raped by her stalker Gary in the treehouse but I don’t recall is happening and if it did I’m not sure it’s been referenced since.

Aren't they tired of using Brooke this way? I thought they'd reached their nadir when Brooke slept with her daughter's teenage boyfriend under the impression it was her 50 something year old husband because they were wearing the same mask.

Y&R December 2021 Discussion Thread
Hey now, Degrassi was more dramatic than this mess! Hallmark channel is right on the nose, completely lifeless and generic with no stakes. Pretty people sitting around talking about absolutely nothing. The actors look drained. They radiate utter boredom.

Y&R and B&B Early 2022 spoilers
Y&R reads like bad fanfic. The type of fanfic where the writer is averse to conflict and just wants every character to be happy and complacent in their own little bubble. Where's the drama? Where are the stakes? Where is the plot?

B&B Major Character Recast!
She doesn't look old enough to their mother. She could easily play Thomas's love interest.

He got all that wrong in one episode? And no one caught it? And it's the hottest topic in this thread? The death rattle intensifies.

Y&R & B&B December spoilers
That's so strange. Was someone worried about offending Peter Bergman? Jack is old enough to be Sally's grandfather. They could have wrung so much story out of their age gap. But I shouldn't be surprised on a show that treats Nick, Sharon and Phyllis like they're perpetually 25.

Y&R & B&B December spoilers
Is it a recent development that soaps stopped addressing age gaps in relationships? I feel like 20 years ago the age gap between Jack and Sally would have been the crux of their relationship (maybe it was, I don't watch) but from what I can tell it was more about people disliking her or whatever.
