AMPTP is probably working on their increases in price for streamers and everything else they sell.

nuMolly looks 50.

I know a lot of people want Chance with Summer, but I'm not seeing it. She just doesn't seem mature enough for him. I'm curious as to what you mean about bringing Abby/Devon into that equation. Why would they have anything to do with Summer and Chance's relationship? It's not as if Chance has much at all to do with Dominick.

At least you know your opinion on Leo is unpopular. But "Other viewers feel the same way"? Uh...with DAYS' taping schedule, there's no way to know that. Ron C. doesn't take any of our feelings into consideration. The idea of Leo appearing even more often is gagworthy. The character is an abomination.

Not that I'm in any way measuring or ranking loss, but Billy Miller's death has hit me harder than any daytime passing in the past few years. Maybe it's because he was so young, maybe it's because we have reports of his problems and suffering, maybe it's because we saw his humanity in his acting. Maybe it's all of those and more. I am just so, so sad about this. Listening to his friends and co-workers pay tribute to him on social media saddens me more, because I don't think Billy knew just how much he was loved. And if I'm hurting this much, I can only imagine how his family and friends feel. In the words of Scott Clifton, "This is not fair."

I'm curious about where they'll go with Cricket and Danny. I just hope they give Michael Damian a decent haircut.

OK, confession time. I didn't CARE about Andre Trischitta's acting because I was so hot for him I couldn't take it LOL

I had to HOWL at Hope -- asking Thomas more than once if he was ok with everything and if he knew where they stand. Meanwhile, SHE'S the one in heat and acting like she'll DIE if she doesn't get The Big D in a minute.

I'm on the East coast -- got the first 10 minutes and the last 5 minutes or so.

To me, Sprina was magical for a while. Lots of angst, lots of yearning romance, lots of chemistry. The writers RUINED all of that. This is one of the worst decisions a soap has made about a young couple in years. I understand drama and conflict, but the story has basically put Spencer and Trina is different stories and different worlds, eliminating almost every chance for us to see that chemistry. Instead we get Esme carrying around Amazon Baby Ace and Spence turning over his life to them. What a waste.

-- Just goes to show what a completely awful character Talia is. As I've said before, nothing about her screams "doctor." DAYS seems instead to have doubled down to make her ridiculous, getting her drunk and horny when she's barely given her first vaxx at the hospital. What a disaster. -- Paul and Andrew? A very welcome return, but it also goes to the terrible tape schedule at DAYS. It's as if Ron got the feedback (loud and clear) 6+ months ago when we all loved Paul and Andrew together -- and then it took FOREVER to get them back on the canvas. Imagine getting surprise chemistry back on the screen in 6-8 weeks instead of 6-8 months? In addition, imagine dumping a bad storyline in 6-8 weeks instead of letting it run 6+ more months.

Wow. I've never seen a character -- even a full-blown criminal played by a lousy actor -- reviled that much. Of course you're entitled to your opinion, but I can't begin to understand it. Tripp is boring, but so is Wendy, yet you want her away from him LOL. But "horrific"? Uh...I don't get it. And in what universe is Lucas Adams "unattractive and unsexy"? I guess in yours, but I want to point out that you're among a small minority who feel that way.

Another great point. There's no difference between this Harris and Jason.

Gotta agree about John McCook in these scenes. He's done some decent work at BOLD, but this ain't it LOL He's chewing through those scenes like a man who's terminal and has to get it all in this week. I'd love to see a serious story about design, but again, we're given scenes that are just ludicrous and laughable. Eric is talking his sketch to RJ in the living room? While Brooke comes in and nicely tells him he needs a vacation? Meanwhile, that whole open scene with Ridge and Thomas fixing and finishing designs in Ridge's office. I mean, who does that? Nothing's really ever done. Oh, I forgot. Today Ridge CHANGED THE MODEL'S EARRINGS!!! Fashion nirvana!!! No designer wall of accessories -- just a small case with about 6 pairs of earrings. Whew! Glad the right ones were there! With Eric and Ridge fighting for Forrester's "vision," how the hell this company stays in business, I'll never know.

This is a perfect explanation of why the show doesn't need Ava or Harris. I have no idea -- none -- who Ava is at this point. I don't care if or when she hallucinates except that it makes me gag even harder when I see Susan again. I agree that Steve Burton was decent on Beyond Salem, but nothing he's done on the main show has worked. Like you, I'm not invested in his character at all. Even worse, all I dowhen he's on the screen is glare at how hard and weathered he looks. He's like a cyborg.

All I can say is that I am sick and tired of seeing Esme carry that kid around. Does the people at GH think we really want to see this crap?

I'm no fan of Jen Lilley's, but I have to admit that she kills it as Theresa. She's really great in that role, and I think we're in for a THUD when Emily O'Brien takes over shortly. O'Brien is a good actor, but she's not only replacing someone who's crushing the role, but playing another role just episodes after leaving the part of Gwen.

That design sketch that RJ is doing for Eric is just hilarious. Who spends that much time on a sketch, filling it in like a color-by-numbers project? And then there's Ridge. On one hand, he sees no reason for RJ to get involved with girls ("They just take your money") While then saying Eric needs to travel the world and get away from all the stress at Forrester. Um...is that the stress from telling his grandson what to sketch? And then Eric plays the piano...while RJ is still filling in that one design. On the other hand, Carter got to say "copacetic" today, so his role is really expanding.

That Doug Davidson interview is hilarious. Every 6 months, he contacts someone to spill his guts about how mistreated he was, always with half-truths. Doug, you're 68 years old. Only the 80 year old blue-haired ladies miss you, so why you think they should pay you big bucks instead of getting a cheaper Michael Damian (Danny) is hilarious. We don't really miss Clueless Paul, who was always 8 steps behind any criminal in GC. And your LEGAL REPRESENTATION wasn't treated properly? LOLOL They invited you back for the 50th and your answer was to call in the lawyers? Dude....you ain't all that. Look, I'm as unhappy as anyone about the budget-cutting at Y&R, but that doesn't mean I have any sympathy for Davidson, who NEVER tells the complete truth about the show or TPTB or about the offers he's had. Notice he gets very critical, but ALWAYS tries to prop open the door to a return. It's been YEARS, and he's still harping about his treatment. I guess he gets his fix when all his Twitter stans tell him how they miss him more than anything and want him back. LOL

The charges are dropped against Sonny and he thanks Dex for doing a good job with the coffee beans. Sonny is so grateful he tells Dex "Take the night off." So....no raise, no job promotion, no vacation in Positano. Dex gets THE NIGHT OFF. And that was the exciting end of the episode. I seriously LMAO for 3 minutes.

Respectfully, if someone is constantly "working the room," that IS a truthiness question.

My problem with Jamey Giddens is that he's not honest. Everything he says about DAYS is a CYA moment or a chance to point the finger away from ANYONE at the show. I think Giddens is smart, and I don't think he believes these lame excuses he feeds us. He's doing it to protect himself, worried about connections and future employment and biting the hand that feeds you. I understand that. I don't think he needs to spill the tea with us because we somehow deserve it regardless of how it affects his career. But please don't feed me garbage and call it the truth. Don't treat me like I'm stupid. THAT'S why I complain about JG's comments. Any fan of Arleen Sorkin (Calliope Jones) should read this Variety piece written by her husband. It's beautiful. https://variety.com/2023/biz/news/arleen-sorkin-harley-quinn-tribute-christopher-lloyd-wife-1235718378/

DAYS had time to plan a funeral that didn't look like a Costco special. It was classy to have that coffin and the chairs THISCLOSE to the shrubbery??? When Phillip touched Victor's framed portrait, the entire easel almost fell over. Even worse? The remembrances were nothing special. I actually thought Zach Tinker did the best job in bringing emotion to the dialogue, but overall, nothing about that memorial was all that sad. Really disappointing.

This Eddie Maine in the studio stuff is so bad. It all comes off like awful filler. Do 80 year olds with blue hair like this stuff or what?

"A few quick changes"? I think a few more changes were needed to that dialogue. Giddens' excuse is lousy. If they had time to bring in another actor/character, they had time to properly write dialogue that didn't have us shaking our heads. Weird excuse, and I'm not buying it. You mean Lions Gate execs waited until ALL of these budget busting scenes were planned and filmed before saying anything??? That's just not believable. Dick Van Dyke is a national treasure, but am I the only one who's already tired of his appearances? Just leave already.
