-- Not only did we get shirtless Gio, but we got him in the opening scene. That alone kept me invested in the entire hour. And yes, the sweats were also prime. -- Very good Gio and Emma scenes today. -- The Dante and Liz chem test was a big success in my eyes. Both of these actors can sell it with anyone.

You're right about that, but letter writing between people who pass each other in the hall at work? Who see each other all the time? I'm not buying it. These shows have people attached to their phones all the time -- except when it's convenient to pretend they don't exist. Look at Katie and Bill ranting today about Eric. Why not call Eric on the damn phone instead of wondering if he's still working for them? This show allows Katie to be strong for 2 weeks, then resorts to the same old where she cries and allows Brooke to win.

-- That's a great set, but using it during the winter is absurd. And at night? Even worse. -- Noah and Sienna have no chemistry. None. They've given us no reason to want them together. -- Devon is good at threatening people. Going after Cane? Valid. But will we see him threaten Victor? You know we won't.

Today's show was meh. That's pretty clear when you see the lack of comments here.

They're not hiding it very well LOL

It's just another example of how daytime soaps refuse to move into the 2020s and why they won't be around in 10 years. You can't write for 80-year olds and expect viewers to stick around.

If only.

-- AI could replace Tomas and we'd never know the difference. In fact, it might be more human. -- Shouldn't Leslie have LAWYERS to file all the paperwork and complete the legal stuff for the clinic? This LONG, LONG conversation between her and Eva over completing forms is ridiculous. -- Elon is the Chief of Police. It's not believable that he can't shut Jacob's undercover work down when he goes after Naomi to solve the problem. -- Why does Jacob spend so much time in the corner of that brick building on the seedy side of town? -- The "Ashley One Year As A Nurse" scenes were beyond boring.

Sorry to hear that! I really look forward to your posts!

OK, I have to defend myself here. I did say the Sledge Hammer actor is good looking. That was a separate sentence from my comment about his attire. I did not say he is too good looking to be homeless. I stand by my comment on what he wore. I don't think he needed to wear filthy, dirty, torn clothes. I do think his wardrobe looked new and nice. You can disagree. I have no problem with that. But calling me completely ignorant and narrow-minded? Unfair and unwarranted.

OK, that's fair, as long as Frank sends him to the shower to clean up the egg all over his face.

You're not the only one. I like Chase, too, even though I realize he's generally disliked here. He's been an enormous idiot through this storyline but Josh Swickard is a decent actor and full-on eye candy. To me there's always room for that on a soap.

This whole thing with Ivy hiding the letter Electra wrote from Will is something from the '80s. No way in hell would someone that age send a frickin letter to her boyfriend.

-- Donnell looks good with the facial hair. It's another show glow up, but a good one. -- Are they really going to talk about the cotillion and dates for it and who belongs there until MAY? -- I'd really love to see Deanna on a date with Diego, and have it all blow up Ho Vanessa's entire world. How long can we go on without seeing Deanna? -- Am I seeing some people here talk about Hayley's conscience and how bad she feels? Really? LOL -- The Hamilton mansion continues to look like a trashy Temu-decorated mess. That set is atrocious.

-- Gotta love this show trying so hard to make us believe Vanessa still cries for Doug. As if. -- The Hammer actor is good looking. His coat, cap, and gloves look more runway ready than homeless, though. -- Bill has so much power with prosecutors that the mugger faces a max 15 years. One call later to a judge, Joey gets the guy released from jail.
