OH HE CAN F¨UCK ME ANY DAY!

Gregory just died... we just met our death quota of 2024.

According to story, he was addicted to Zen-Zen not alcohol.

Some amazing performances in today's episode.

So, they wallpaper'd the Q mansion? Remodeling already?

If they wouldn't deal with one of their major [former] stars, I too doubt they'd deal with a recurring player that had been there less than one-year. Doubt Demi Moore would go back for a guest spot like a wedding for a child she likely doesn't know her character has. But there sure are plenty of other actresses who could have been cast, but I don't see it as necessary.

Mhmm. She was there for a bit of time, thankfully. Oh, I don't negate that. She was arrested in January 2022 for refusing to comply with a blood-alcohol test. A judgment on her was placed last month (April 2024); she last appeared in June of 2021. From what was reported (by The Hollywood Reporter), ABC implemented its vaccine mandate in the summer of 2021 and that September is when California began implementing vaccine mandates, some of which went into effect in October. Steve Burton wrapped filming the end of October that year, as I am certain you needed proof of vaccination or an approved exemption by November, as a lot of people exited projects within Hollywood in October 2021. So, I've always suspected Delaney said, "I'm a free agent, so I am not proving anything to you." Again, it's speculative, but the timing lines up perfectly with the mandates coming down. Does not mean she is anti-vaxx (as she's liked tweets on social media asking for people to be vaccinated) nor do I believe she is; merely that she didn't want to prove her stance to her then-employer. Shame, 'cause her casting was gold!

Yes. Yes it is, unfortunately. 🙄

Good old east coast casting... pure gold. They did! Watros' Annie and Ron Raines' Alan are the ones you brought Wright's Cassie to Springfield when Kim Zimmer's Reva was searching for her long-lost sister. Pretty sure the vaccine mandate had something to do with it; that's around the time she stopped appearing, and she continues to like a certain former cast member's social media posts.

Honestly, Cynthia Watros, Maura West & Laura Wright all play well off of each other. They really do. A trifecta of amazing [blonde] talent, and I do believe that stems from their beginnings in east coast soaps, especially P&G produced ones.

I'm not even speaking in terms of Sonny's orbit. I'm speaking in terms of being a punching bag for "saint Carly" and her chewing crew.

Forget 'em.

Yup; I'm so worried the women on-canvas will again become weak. I feel as if Mulcahey was re-rooting women on the canvas to stand on their own two-feet and not be punching bags.

His reprise of Stavros was half-way decent.

I don't need him on, either. He fired himself with the decision he made in 2021, and that's where he should have stayed: gone. Setton seems fine with kissing her love interest, and he seems fine with it in return. I see nothing wrong with them kissing, and the camera panning. It's the suggestion of love-making without having to film anything suggestive. To me, it's not a fireable offense if someone does not want to perform a scene which would explicitly depict a sexual act. I know others feel differently, and that's their prerogative. But I wouldn't have a problem with it if I were a producer.

And that was his choice, and shouldn't be fired because of it. In fact, he wasn't. 🤷🏻‍♂️ People survived.

I didn't say it wasn't a soap... I'm just saying no actor should be made to do anything they're not comfortable doing. People getting butt-hurt over a female actor not performing a sex scene concern me. He sucked and couldn't act his way out of a paper bag.. Bradley Bell has a type.

But, that opens the door for an HR shoot in the #MeToo era. It's just too messy and too uncomfortable for me to justify firing a female actor for refusing to film love-making scenes. Clearly, the job fits her needs without doing the love scenes, otherwise, I do think she'd quit of her own choice.
