Liberty City

Me, too. She was superior; I never understand their reasons for swapping Natalia Livingston for Tamara Braun.

This is a GH dressing room; it matches Steve Burton's room from an October 2024 IG video. And Gibson is following Katelyn MacMullen (Willow), Mark Teschner and Frank Valentini on IG. Could he potentially be nü Michael, debuting around the Nurse's Ball?

Oh, that's hilarious, hahaha. I never got the Twitter DM. He filmed for two to three months, and Robinson has been filming almost as long. I don't see them swapping back at this point. 🤣

Haha. I just gave a thumbs up, lmao.

Tomorrow we should find out which category he's placed into (principal guests/under fives).

Meds, paddled cell, etc.

He really was! Hoping we see more of him.

date: Wednesday, April 9 | [ news interruption ] | Michael V. Pomarico Shanice eavesdropping like the nosey Nellie she is. Oh, Nicole means business with Katherine. Are we about to see another side of Nicole? I'm excited. I love seeing Nicole in "mom mode", and appreciate Eva is eavesdropping on the conversation. Dr Flannery is interesting; it's nice seeing an actual doctor doing their actual job at their actual workplace. Catch my drift? A heart attack? Oh, that's damn serious. Dana is unhinged and really must be stopped. The discussion between Chelsea and Samantha feels like what Tyra Banks wanted Top Model to be, but it was not. Oh, eating disorders. Love that we are touching on real, topical subjects right now. Martin and Bradley do not share chemistry; Bradley deserves better than deadbeat. Dana, you are a psychopath. Truly. Unhinged. Without apologies. "Lulu"? Well, a southern belle is what she seems to be. Dana is taking her acting classes to heart, I see. Katherine and Tomas just feel easy-going, and I am enjoying the vibes between them. I appreciate that Chelsea does not want Samantha walking into the modeling world. Uh-oh, Ashley made a boo-boo. Shouldn't have been flirting with your boring brick of a firefighter boyfriend. Tsk tsk. Of course the boyfriend would show up in the final 20 minutes. Well, Eva does not want to be the country club hairstylist. She wants to work close to Daddy's wife. Boo-hoo. Andre/Ashley and Ashley/Derek are two different vibes; the former works much better than the latter, completely.

It is the glitz and glam, and social media is definitely a proponent of that, I'd say.

Mm-hmm; he was smart. He did his three-year contract and got his Emmy win/nomination, and he high-tailed it out of there for primetime television and film work. He was smart in that regard. I know, for some, daytime is great for stability (especially those with families), but if you're itching for differing work, it's best to get out while you can.

And you know this, how? At my former job, I'd have high schoolers come in and was even hearing it from them.

I'd love someone new to daytime, although, given Valentini's track record for picking "new" talent, it does worry me we'll get the same look of other "new" characters.

He wasn't necessarily bad, but he also was not my favourite by far.

Rory Gibson (ex-Noah, Y&R) seems to be in a dressing room that resembles those at Prospect Studios; could he possibly be nü Michael?

When Duell was given harsher material, especially during the Michael Quartermaine era, he excelled. And seeing him on The Bay, I know he could have done it. The problem is: they were never going to give him the material.

Cringe yes. Accurate, though? In today's world, yes. Even in my high school years, I remember hearing "jelly" a lot over jealous.

It's disappointing he wasn't invited to take the role, as he has been my dream recast for Michael for the longest of times⏤even as a fan of Chad Duell. However, I don't see Frank Valentini as someone to hire pinch-hitters full-time into the role (i.e., Adam Huss as Nikolas). I feel Robert Adamson's frustration, given how he was likely treated on all three occasions he pinch-hit for Duell, likely at the request of Valentini/GH/ABC, etc. However, a recast does not surprise me; when Duell announced his exit in November 2024, Valentini responded they were not recasting "at this time", which suggested to me a recast was on the agenda at some point. So, I am not surprised if they're cooking up plans to recast the role. Ultimately, Adamson would be my selection⏤however, even without his now-deleted tweet, I did not see Valentini bringing him on full-time, given the perceived M.O. of Valentini (and online chatter).

I don't believe they overplayed her casting at all; perhaps that's your perception, but I don't think it was hailed as anything but Cady joining another soap in her first original role. 🤷🏻‍♂️ She also teaches in NY, so she has other obligations. She's far from the only recurring role that's not been in a handful of episodes.

He's moved onto IG DM's now. 🤣

She's been filming, lmao.

She's still on the show; she's recurring so she only films when they call for her to.

The body-shaming is unreal. Whew.

Can't wait to see what the cast photo will look like by then... 🤣

date: Tuesday, April 8 | Teresa Zimmerman, Judy Tate | Steven Williford Bradley is a FATHER, and we love to see it; love that he set up for Samantha to go to the show! Anita, Mama, you are wild in that print. It fits you like a glove! That red is fire on Nicole; I'm so used to seeing her in lighter, less bold colours. It works well for her. Oh look, it's deadbeat. Home right on time. Loving the family dynamics of the Duprees. So much rich history there. Genuinely, however, seeing Ted against Vernon, I cannot help but feel like Ted is not the successor to Vernon. At all. Samantha is falling deep into the fashion world; you can see it in her eyes, and it's going to come down to Chelsea or Dani with whom she'll align. I love the use of the Country Club for the fashion event; the sisterly bond between Dani and Nicole is strong, but I am wondering what, if anything, could crack it at some point. Anita is feeling nostalgic for the Articulettes, and I just hope she gets her reunion moment and in the way the Supremes never got. An August reunion for a one-off that leads to a potential fall reunion tour? I love seeing Chelsea, Katherine, and Samantha working together, even if the latter is stiffer than stiff in that way. TOMAS! Yay! So happy that he came in support of Katherine tonight. Martin and Ted sharing scenes? This is allowed to happen? Whew. Oh Lord, the room is closing in on my poor Tomas. Run, Tomas! Run for the hills! That was a cute fashion show. Short, demure, mindful. Bold could learn a lot, honestly. It felt contemporary and modern and classic at the same time. Wonderful. General note: Jeresa Featherstone is doing the damn thing. I saw the work she brought to The Bold and the Beautiful, and that was cheap-looking in comparison to how rich and refined everyone on Beyond the Gates has continued to look.
