Liberty City

I don't recall him stating anything; he just remarked prior to those three months in 2005, AJ was a whipping post, but did praise working with Maurice Benard & Steve Burton.

He did; he called it the "best three months" of being in the role, and he felt like both Guza/Pratt finally wrote AJ with a "bat to swing for the first time" and, even though he lost, he got to fight. And Warlock even admitted Guza came up to him and admitted he messed up, and admitted to never knowing what he (Warlock as AJ) had in him, and wished he was staying over returning to DAYS.

Same; plus, becoming the drunk again likely did help him, both in terms of the role and his own real-life struggles (x). It's funny you write this, because Warlock felt somewhat of the opposite.

Absolutely; it's very apparent in episodes that's what is going on. Even now, I still see [some] of Storms creeping into Maxie, but not as much as before. I look at Y&R and their new head costume designer, and she's doing a fantastic job dressing her entire cast. I wish GH had someone as passionate as her. But alas, we're not in luck. Both Adrianne León & Briana Lane were dressed differently as Brook Lynn, and it's like night/day between their portrayals and Setton's. León: Setton: Lane: To me, Lane's styling mirrored León's, but in a more refined, mature adult way. Setton's looks like a cheap imitation from a MadTV parody.

💯 For me, Amanda Setton has stepped into Kirsten Storms territory, ie: letting the actor dictate how the character is dressing. I hated it when Storms was [apparently] doing it, and I hate that [it appears] Setton is now doing it. But, truthfully, the styling for Setton's Brook Lynn has never been to my liking or what I believe the character should be wearing. The only online place I can find it is Celeb Dirty Laundry, which is known for being an unreliable, gossip-type rag with people who think they're journalists. And, of course, other rags and unreliable websites (and Facebook groups who believe anything written) have picked up the unfounded story.

There hasn't been any kind of announcement, either via Amanda Setton or the serial.

That pisses me off more than I ever care to admit. Sean Kanan had some amazing chemistry with Chad Duell, Elizabeth Herbst and even Laura Wright. There was so much potential for him to work out, but a certain someone had to sabotage it, and ultimately put a sour taste in Kanan's mouth, re: the role/serial.

We can hope; four separate ones, and now the fifth. It's insane.

Well, a fifth wild fire broke out, this time in the Hollywood Hills.

He posted to IG earlier today... and now, the Hollywood Hills are on fire. The fifth fire in California going right now.

Yes, Shriner appeared in 2004 as Harrison Bartlett. I could semi-see him as Mike, although, would not be my prime choice.

And then, somehow, she married Martin Grey? 🫣

Can she kick her out of Port Charles, too? Kthnxbye. The "writer" was writing... I can only imagine. 🫣

Well, it got Warlock three-months worth of employ, so good for him. 🤣 I'm sure the story was dumb and poorly executed, any way.

Yeah; I re-watched his Locher Room interview. Michael Lowry three-way phone'd Warlock, he got to set and Valentini handed him a script and said, "We're taping you at the end of the day. You got this." And, I don't think he was a pinch-hit. He was a full-on replacement for Lowry. Skye could come back. 😉 And then, for @carolineg, Brenda could interview at Crimson for Deception.

Okay. Broken down like this... it makes more sense to me. So, thank you.

I agree/disagree with this. In the other roles I've seen Kin in, I've liked him in those. But it's clear that Scotty Baldwin is where his bread is fully buttered. When he pinch-hit for Ted Shackleford as Jeffrey Bardwell on Y&R, I quite liked him in that role. And I didn't entirely hate him as Keith Morrissey on ATWT.

Well, it'd make sense to extend the submission timeline, etc. I mean, look at what happened with the 50th Daytime Emmy Awards. That was painful, for obvious reasons, but... yeah. I'm just not feeling this decision by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. This sends a message that Daytime isn't viewed as important, for me.

Thank fück "fans"/audience are not involved in soap productions, 'cause W H E W.... they'd kill the genre, immediately.

And the conversation will be this: "I DESERVE WILEY! I DESERVE AMELIA! MY MICHAEL IS DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU! IT'S ALL ABOUT ME! I I I I I I I I I I I"

This is laughable to me that the Daytime Emmys would be pushed back for this... but at least it gives time for more Emmy submission reels, I guess?
