Liberty City

At least the soap was exciting and worth watching at that time....

I'm hoping they allow him to grow out his facial hair.

From what I've read (via humourous recaps), Sally is there to be a thorn in the dead-upon-arrival pairing of Kyle and Summer, and become Phyllis 2.0, in terms of meddling. As for Josh Griffith, he has his friend Steve Kent (via Sony Pictures Television) to thank for his gig. I agree: Griffith is missing all of the important parts of this story and is rushing it far too much (which, for a writer whose work has been slower than a tortoise) is laughable.

I don't blame him. Ron Carlivati's decision to retcon and re-work the character of Franco was such a poor decision. However, we also know how toxic social media can be for the so-called rumour mill. I'm taking it with less than a grain of salt.

Considering Rebecca Herbst was fired and only re-hired because of fan demand... I can't help but wonder if they should've kept her fired for a year or two.. put her on All My Children and then returned her to General Hospital after the former ended.

Prime needs to bring Dynasty back, stat!

I don't see it happening. I just see a genuine friendship established between two characters that interact with the other Carrington family members. If I am being honest, I'm sad Culhane and Kirby didn't go further than it did.

Was trying to last week.. but Paramount+ is bugged AF on my streaming device.

It was the only way of explaining it; they wouldn't shoot Sofia or Johnny kissing, despite other cast members sharing those intimate moments, and they kept avoiding her mid-section, and, once they revealed Sasha's pregnancy her stomach was showing again.

Because, again, I do believe Gibboney had the ability to pull from the vulnerabilities of the character that allowed you to feel for her, even when you shouldn't have. Once Mattson was cast, that vulnerability just went away.. and it changed the character's origin.

They definitely were two different characters. And I have to wonder, if Gibboney stayed in the role, where Gina would've gone.

You were saying?

Do I suspect a time jump to a nine-month pregnant Cristal to show Daniella Alonso's real-life pregnant belly for at least once..? By episode eight, nine and/or ten, Alonso won't be pregnant (shooting-wise).

For a Tyler Perry series it is definitely worth the watch in my opinion. Sure there are things that irk me, but it is a solid drama.

I usually re-watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer twice per-year; during quarantine last year I must've watched it six or seven times in a four-month period. Never gets old. Oh! Why do you feel that way? I think it was due to the series' move to UPN. I got the loss of Giles and understood it, and I think that's what made his "special guest" appearances even more special. I hate the fourth season with a burning passion; I can understand why people like it, but I absolute hate it to this day. The fact Charisma Carpenter was told Cordelia wouldn't be killed off, only to get to the set, see the script and see that Cordelia does, in fact, die is an insult to her.

Meh. I was never a Claire fan until Durant took claim of the role.

It really was. And I think Sibbett was trying to not bad-mouth her former co-stars, which she admitted she didn't want to do later on in the interview. To me, they both play different Gina DeMotts. Santa Barbara was always competed against other networks; had NBC maybe aired it during a time when soaps were not airing it could have faired better. Plus, I'm not sold that NBC was the right network, either.

Michael becoming a Quartermaine (by name) and taking Avery from Sonny was a complete mood.

Last week's episode and tonight's episode are fantastic.

Considering they've waiting this long to cast the next season I have a feeling major shakeup is happening.

I completely agree; replacing Linda Gibboney with Robin Mattson was a mistake. Gibboney embraced the vulnerabilities of Gina.. which became lost in the deceit of Mattson's portrayal. Plus, Gibboney's work opposite Ava Lazar's Santana was incredible. Jane Sibbett said she did not like rehearsing love scenes without a director, and that Richard Eden did, and that's all she would say. In an interview, she stated: "Richard Eden ... no comment. We didn't get along. I didn't like rehearsing love scenes without a director and he did. Enough said?"

I need Michael to become Michael Quartermaine again... he was twice the character Michael Corinthos is.

See, I'm on the opposite side of that argument. To me, Olivia Rose Keegan over-[re]acted in the role of Claire; Durant has leveled the character, which was needed.
