I stopped watching the show regularly in 2007, but Google says that they hooked up/or he was sexually harassing her and that the story wasn't any good. Not surprised. I actually just watched the episode when AM returns in 2005. He almost hits Marina with his car, and then it turns flirtatious. If I hadn't read here that he was once thought to be her dad, I wouldn't have given it a second thought. But it's so gross. I'm a hypocrite because I loved Jammy, but at least those two didn't grow up together.

Ava was egregiously bad. Beyond. I've always felt she was a poor man's replacement and her intro to the show was just ridiculous. Why would Jonathan pay a $3K debt for a random girl he just met? Like, he just gave the loan shark all the cash. Then she was Sandy's secret wife, Olivia's daughter and then went into her bad girl era by hooking up with Bill. I don't remember if she made it to the end of the show. All I know is that she should've never been part of the show, but alas, she's also forgettable.

That's a good point. GL kept taking Cassie's kids from her, but then you had Reva getting a new kid every few years. Her San Cristobel kid, Will, did return as a mini psycho. I think he was a 7-year-old terrorizing Springfield, and maybe killed Edmund. I saw some clips and lost interest. Laura Wright saw the writing on the wall and got out of there. Although, I wish she could've played the scenes of grieving Tammy's death. She was such a Momma bear in that role and that underdog heroine who had chemistry with almost everyone. I'm surprised Laura never won any Emmys for her role as Cassie.

You're right. I'm anti-Trina these days (because she's such a drip), but Isaiah did show up to her place. I'd probably have an attitude too. I missed a few episodes but it seems like Isaiah and Portia patched things up since they found out Curtis is the baby's dad. Now he's trying to get her and Trina to reconcile. I wish there was some more tension with Isaiah or character development.

One Life to Live Tribute Thread
I'm jealous of those who got to see the Karen Wolek trial and that testimony live. I get goosebumps every time I see the YouTube clip. History in the making. So much so that I went out of my way to find it, decades later. Judith Light, the talent that you are. She is simply amazing in these scenes and has so much range as an actress. I will never forgive OLTL for what they did to Marty's character toward the end of her run. She had so many layers, at first. I started watching OLTL after her gang rape, and I liked that she got to be raw, messy, complicated while still being a victim. In between my GL binge, I started a Todd Manning one, and I wasn't mad at Marty at all for not exonerating him of the hospital rapes. Why should she have helped him? But then it got weird after she and Todd became quasi-friends. The real insult is when they made her crazy over John McBain. Marty/Susan deserved so much better. But for a time, I really loved that Marty got to be more than just a paint-by-numbers heroine.

I wouldn't mind this plot twist. The Liz/Dante chem testing scene was cute. Nothing special but cute. I still want LiRic, but I also like Liz having options. Gio and Emma are great together. I really love that she doesn't have to be dumbed down to be with him. It feels like they've abandoned Joss as Sydney Bristow. Or at the very least, she's not shoved down our throats every day. Carly's screentime is also scaled back, making her easier to like/tolerate.

Agree. I do hope that once Liza's kids turn 18, they can make their own decisions if they want to know Susan as their grandmother. Or just to hear her side of things. Unless of course they are Scientologists and contact is forbidden even then. I do hope that everyone involved in this has some kind of peace. I fully believe in going no contact if it brings you peace but I also feel bad for Susan if she didn't initiate this which it doesn't sound like she did.

Oh, how I love this movie. It's terrible in every camp way. @alwaysAMC Thank you for the chapter reviews so far. I was also nosy about the Susan/Liza feud. I also think Liza is the one going no contact, and that's her right. I say cut off anyone who interferes with your peace - family included. Liza regularly posts her kids on IG and shown love to a nanny, I believe, who she says was the one who raised her. I've never seen Liza mention/post any family outside of her nuclear one, which leads me to believe she's gone no contact with her brother, too. This feud has to be really bad if she didn't even go to her father's funeral and it's been 10 years since they spoke, according to Liza.

Ross' mustache took me out. I thought he would start twirling it. I went down a rabbit hole trying to figure out why Michelle and Danny named their son Robbie. I thought it was so random and I then I found out that everyone is basically named after someone lol I've seen clips of Bill and Lizzie and yes, she is the most likable in this pairing. Maybe they could've become the next young supercouple.

I could see Willow doing that....and I'd be cheering her on lol. I don't care all that much about Maxie getting out of her coma. I didn't care that she was gone, and Nathan's return has been a bust. I think they're rushing the beats because the actress doesn't live in CA. Or it's just typical GH writing. Sonny romancing anyone these days is a hard pass for me.

The Lily/Damian story in 1997 got me interested in ATWT. The Hogan Sheffer years hooked me. I wonder what Hogan could've done for GL as a head writer. Sadly, they're all being wasted on GH. Re: The Dinah/Billy sibling bond. During my 2005 binge, I felt so dumb at first for not realizing they were brother and sister. Dinah is usually in scenes with Jonathan, Edmund, Cassie, and her dad. I wondered why Bill was at her invention. This video was recommended to me yesterday. Wendy was soooooo good as Dinah. And Gina still made the role her own.
