ELR looks fantastic. I didn't notice any overt work done on her beautiful face. How old is she now anyway? I'm telling you, there was nothing more um, noticeable about ELR during her AMC days than her strange breast augmentation. I think it took years to get that fixed. I have always been a big fan of hers. She and John Callahan were a beautiful couple. Btw, I'm pretty new here, but is this screen name previously the one that was Donna Bridges? They are two different posters, right? Sorry, I know I'm confused.

Omg that dress was hideous (I realize it's not her final wedding chioce). As was Lois' braid across her forehead. Good grief, who's running hair and wardrobe? I expect nothing less than first and last names from the pros here. And yes, KS looks like she's already lost about 20 quick pounds. She will probably shrink even further before our very eyes. Have any of you seen Kelly Osbourne lately? Man, I did not recognize her at her last interview. Good thing she still had the lilac hair color. I sure hope that stuff proves to be safe in the long run.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but was that entire experimental surgery that Curtis went through just to fix his wiener? I thought it was to lead to his full recovery from paralysis. But since he mentions to everyone he passes on the street now that he and Portia have "reconnected" wink-wink, I gather that we are to believe that the surgery was just to resume his ability to become, you know, ready for lovin'. LOL They are so corny on this show all the time.

So now we HAVE to like an actor because he's previously been good in his role? IMO, NAC has outgrown the Spencer role because he's a more dramatic actor now. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but I bet he's gotten too big for a soap opera, especially after his role as a creepy Menendez brother comes out. He will no doubt move on to bigger and better things than GH. I have always said I don't like NAC in the role. Not just his height when paired with the most petite character on the show. He changed his acting style. I noticed after the Greenland crap. Maybe it was when Spencer and Trina were arguing, loudly, in that bank's safety deposit box room. He became this Shakespearean over-the-top actor (just like the actor who played Henrik/Peter) and they turned Trina into his mother for months. Since then I have been eager for NAC to leave and I hope every day for a recast. Once again, JMO.

Totally agree. They need a new Spencer. NAC just wasn't working for me once he got so high and mighty. All his scenes became Emmy reels. The overacting and fast talking was just too much. Trina needs a different Spencer when he comes back. And please don't cast for someone who is over 6' tall. Of course! We all saw the turtle dove figurine laying in the water. RME

Hahaha no, she didn't cut out the baby. She gave Ava inducing drugs which made Ava go into labor. Then MS/Nina stole the baby and ran to Canada. I will forever chuckle when I see people type that Nina cut the baby out of Ava's womb. Good grief. And can they please let Sonny pour himself a bourbon now that he has thrown some glassware while sober? Nina henpecking Sonny about alcohol (while constantly drinking her giant glass of wine) was the only reason he has been teetotaling with his never-ending glass of water with a lemon wedge floating in it. He drank for years and years before Nina. Now he doesn't even have a glass of champagne at a celebration.

He's writing her as fickle. That's what she is now. This Sally is fickle af.

I'm not really surprised, but I cannot believe they put the few Sharon scenes into this, especially since she hasn't been seen in so long. I see she still has her never-ending snark when speaking with Adam. I thought exactly what you typed, that they "trotted out Sharon for this". I wonder who is responsible for all of the "up-do" hairstyles today? Even Nina Reeves on GH has an unusual ginormous hair bun on top of her head this week. I usually only complain when the ladies' long hair looks so fake. Up-dos were a nice change. Nikki wore it best. Chelsea looked awful. Sharon's messy top-bun was cute, but her hair color was super odd and very brown at the roots. Am I the only one who remembers that Sally, about a year ago, emphatically stated that she would "never take a paycheck signed by a Newman ever again"? She is so freaking fickle, can't stand her.

Is it reasonable to think that after this 50th anniversary has passed that they will stop bringing these older insignificant characters back and will maybe just get back to writing new stuff for the show? How ridiculous is this return of the likes of Mamie, Danny, Cole and his Aunt Jordan? Even Daniel and Heather are a bust. They are underutilizing TSJ/Tucker. I want them all to leave (except TSJ) and for the show to get back to some stories for the core characters that were there through all of the Covid bullchit. Amanda's return? Not needed and super temporary. Seth is an absolutely useless character so I hope he leaves when they decide to kill off Jordan. Are they just trying to work in some old characters because of the anniversary of the show? I'm over it. It's an epic fail (like the dumb gala).

Well they DO keep showing Jack wincing (and his signature grimace) every time Ashley goes in for a hug. So Jack has an inkling of Ash's level of disturbance. Then again, Diane has changed Jack's brain to mush so it will probably take him a year to really notice Ashley is off her rocker.

I am so over Ashley. They better not be switching her back and forth from one day a simpering twit who is yelling at herself alone on the couch, to sexy, flirtatious Ashley who's coming on strong to Tucker. I have NOT enjoyed ED as Susan Banks/Kristen DiMera and I won't enjoy this either. Eileen has great range, but these two character traits are straight outta DOOL. And what's up with Nate's left eyebrow? Is it a scar? It is shaved like that on purpose? It's distracting af.

Wow, Marshall appears to be on the Ozempic plan. He looks absolutely svelt. Stella better get her some of that. Hey Nina, Phyllis called and wants her gigantic hair bun back. LOL (Why is there never a mention of Phyllis anymore?) Carly and Joss must have been directed to switch sides of the room 100 times during their scenes in Dex's apartment. Carly's back is to the door, then Joss circles 'round and her back is to the door. They do-si-do'd all around that room for the entire show. Glad someone on set finally got Joss a tissue for her runny nose.

Don't tell me we will be getting a steady dose of stupid Tess now. I truly hope she will be just like Esther and rarely be seen managing the restaurant. But since they have all but eliminated all of Sharon's family AND SHARON, I bet we won't hardly get a glimpse of Mariah in the near future. Which btw is fine by me. Although I would much rather see Mariah on my screen that the horrid Tess. Can't stand her.

Well, since anyone can say anything on the millions of FB groups, I tend to never care about what is put out there. I mean, it's all completely unreliable and I give it no credence. No one should. I am still waiting for those pre-taped scenes of Spencer to show up. You think May, huh?

Jack ridiculously drinks alcohol all the time since his romp back a few ago with Gloria (after he kicked his addiction to pills). In fact, right after dealing with the very drunk Nikki when he went with Victor to get her at that bar, Jack came home and immediately poured himself a nice big Scotch. rme

It's just that it's pretty big news to have not heard any chatter about. They certainly kept it hush-hush. We knew all about NAC leaving for his other role. I'm sure many people thought that once Spencer was gone, Esme might be gone too. I never thought her time was coming to an end. I was completely surprised to find she was done. But we all know anyone can be gone at the end of their contracts, or even before. We've seen it many times. I hate it when the press release doesn't match the actual fact of an actor leaving a show. Then in a couple of weeks we get the real truth and it's usually that the actor didn't want to leave at all (Lexi Ainsworth).

Also odd that no one had any knowledge of Avery Pohl leaving GH. That info was not out there, no one predicted it at all. But rumors saying she left to continue some schooling was scuttled about. Nope, her contract was not renewed and she's known it for 6 months. I prefer to wait for the facts to be confirmed than to throw out random speculation (nor do I believe it most times).

TY for the info. I saw this posted over at the Soaps site. You must be KristinaFan there, same post nearly word for word. What happened to the story that APohl was finishing up some school courses? Was that just a garbage rumor? What does this mean, "some fans of the Willow family"? Who said on IG that Spencer would be back? Sorry, it's confusing. Will there be those reported NAC pre-taped scenes that were so talked about here?

I love this post. It is spot on. Thank you. I like ED, but I don't like her losing it over something so trivial. It's been drawn out for months and beyond ridiculous. Everyone has said it. I ask again, is she leaving again soon? (Please, God?) To the business storylines I just ask why, why is it taking all this time up on our screen. I'd almost rather see Sally painting Daniel's walls. And the only reason Billy is trying for a name change is because Tucker goaded him into thinking about it. Why not add Abbott? Company names change often enough. I just think Jack might protest to it even though it really doesn't concern him (and he's too busy holding Nikki's purse and delivering luncheon in a brown paper bag to Nikki and Lauren. RME) This JG guy has no clue what is good or what we want. It's really quite unbelievable this sh*t he's writing (and airing).

I'm relaxed, but there is no way on earth to respond to this in the opposite fashion. Even if J/K. It would go over like the proverbial lead balloon.

Closest I came to that was firing weapons and chopping wood up in Wrightwood, east of LA up in the San Gabriel Mts. Someone BTS probably has a cabin up at Big Bear and that's where they get to use their hatchet. rme

She probably enjoys acting like an idiot losing her mind, but I know I'm not enjoying it. I don't enjoy her stints as Susan Banks either, but I'm sure it's fun for her to play such a bumpkin whacko. ED has stayed around for almost all of Trevor St. John's new-found tenure on YR. I thought she would be gone by now, and they are completely wasting her talents with this crap. I don't enjoy her falling apart over this one argument. Talk about milking a poor storyline until we're beyond sick of it.

That's exactly the first thing I thought of. They said they need to act fast, so that would preclude Cyrus from trying to get into Pentonville to become this O'Neill guy's confidant. It would take too long with Cy. Is Adam Huss still hanging around for scenes as Nik? What is with that axe stuff? I mean, I've heard of it but it must be an east coast thing. We throw axes at trees in the forest on the west coast.

What the hell are they doing with ED/Ashley? My God, she sounds like an idiot every day now. She sits on the couch with her faraway look and the never-ending scowl on her face. This is worse than a high school play, as she chases after Tucker asking him the same thing over and over again. Then she sits around questioning what she remembers and Jack sits alongside her, coddling her. Don't get me started on what Traci has been reduced to. What an awful storyline for such wonderful actors.

Why are they bringing Olivia Jerome up at this point in time? Just another inconsequential character with very few ties to the current show. Being Ava's half-sister doesn't amount to much. I know her connections to Anna, etc., but come on. If they announce that she's dead, she more than likely is NOT dead. Is this their way to make this jumbled WSB missing guns/shooting at Sonny/FBI Jagger storyline crap come to a close? I doubt it. Can't stand Dex. Can they please direct him to shut his mouth when he's just standing there? And what a total JOKE it was to see him put that little skimpy chain lock on his door as if it offered him some protection. Laughed my head off.
