Hard agree. To the degree that I want to see Carly at all, I want to see her being a hotheaded hypocrite who’s constantly picking catfights. (Also, let’s face it, no man will ever measure up to her weird dependency on Jason.)

Mustache haters and the “why doesn’t he smile” crowd might enjoy these pics of Nicholas at last night’s Vogue World event in LA. (He’s sitting next to Bruce Bozzi, the husband of CAA CEO Bryan Lourd; if I were married to the head of CAA I would’ve made a similar seating choice.)

I loved the shot (spoiled in the previews) of Alexis’s eyes popping open as Ric holds the knife to her throat. Very giallo. And the stunt with Ava knocking out Ric was exceptionally well done. Just those little bits of craft that GH still does way better than any other soap…

I wonder if CM showed up with a long primetime resume expecting to be a bigger deal on GH than he was ever going to be, then ran into the Mo/Steve wall as everyone does.

So when people talk about the “politics” at GH, they’re talking about FV treating his faves like gods and screwing over everybody else, correct? Or am I missing something?

I honestly don’t get it. We know FV is obsessed with OLTL alums. So he unceremoniously dropped Charles in favor of OLTL grad Chris, then got LW to lie about it on social media? Am I following this correctly?

If I encountered this while crossing the street in Manhattan I would surely get run over by a cab.

Lol by all means! I forgot we’re in October.

Am I breaking board rules by noting that Charles Mesure is voicing some *opinions* on Twitter at the moment?

Here is the full-length Moon Shoe ad 🥵

Yes, they absolutely used Duell’s departure as an opportunity to revamp Michael as a character.

LLC is definitely disadvantaged by the show’s wealth of great actresses over 50. She’s as good as Watros, West, Kerr, etc., but at a certain point the story can only serve so many temperamental rich ladies who look great in a midi dress. I kept thinking this week what a disaster it would’ve been if JE hadn’t agreed to come back full-time a couple of years ago. As good as SB has been, there almost would have been no way to honor Monica properly without her.

I thought the scenes with Anna, Felicia, and Nina were surprisingly well done—playing into the eerie, almost sci-fi quality of Nathan’s return. Their reactions reminded me of the great French TV show Les Revenants, about a town in which the dead return and try to live their lives normally as if nothing ever happened.

Nicholas Alexander Chavez is trying to kill us with this Jacquemus/Nike campaign.

Petition to replace the Olympics with this

This is a whole lot. 🤩

I thought the Tracy/Lucy scenes were great. They allowed the writers to acknowledge Monica as she truly was, especially her turbulent history with Alan. It was far more meaningful than watching actors who never shared scenes with Leslie talk about what a saint Monica supposedly was.

Jacquemus teasing shirtless Nicholas in a…shoe campaign, of all things.

I’m not gonna lie, I kinda love both.

At the Netflix afterparty, with Owen Cooper, Colman Domingo, Evan Peters, and execs Ted Sarandos and Bela Bajaria.

Arriving at the Emmys

Rocking a pretty severe wet look at a couple of pre-Emmy parties yesterday

Bring it on! And sorry, I loved the dark and stormy night. I wish they hadn’t gone out of their way to exclude Kai and Trina as suspects.

They should Murder On The Orient Express it and have EVERYONE kill Drew.

Yes! Watros is such a hoot. As for today, I liked the Ava/Alexis/Kristina/Ric stuff and didn’t think it was too campy. It’s an example of what the show is still much better at than, say, Days: weaving a narrative over a period of months that culminates in this Mexican standoff of blackmail in which everyone has something on somebody else. I also liked Anna getting loaded at the Brown Dog by herself. It made her seem human. (Although it kind of made me wonder what Emma and Gio were doing on their own back at the condo lol.)
