Burgi’s styling is fine, but I agree with you about the generic dialogue. No sense of personality at all. What is the name of this company anyway. Who the frick calls their company Siaxories or whatever the eff it is? I honestly can’t make out what they’re saying or what it’s supposed to stand for.

That’s what I thought about Chase — no reason to tell him at all until the paternity test came through. I hate stupid writing that makes the characters stupid. The acting was limp and without energy except for Josh Swickard. Speaking of limp, Michael is boring beyond words. Gotta love it that Sonny has amnesia but is so skilled in other areas, such as with swap shops and poker. Amazing guy.

WAY too many fakeouts and dream sequences on this show. And WAY too many people being held at gunpoint.

Jackee is terrific — when she’s on the screen, you can’t take your eyes off her. The naming of the godparents was ridiculous. I know it doesn’t really matter, but naming all these old people? And Theo, who’s never around? Speaking of Theo, I guess it’s cool that he’s cured of autism. Seriously, what’s up with that? I’m not crazy about this recast, tbh. And speaking of recasts, I’ll never get used to nuClaire. Just don’t think she fits the character at all. it has been nice to be free of Susan and Kristen for a couple days.

I’m glad to see other criticize William Lipton in those crying scenes. I like his Cam, most of the time a lot, but those scenes were bad. If Wes Ramsey cried like that and made those faces, people would destroy him online. I agree with others here about the teen set. They are boring beyond belief, and no one is worse than Joss. My God.

Terrible pacing. We saw no Sharon and Rey honeymoon, and as you said, that was followed by marital troubles just weeks later. I have no problem with a Jack and Sally story as long as Sally is a gold digger from hell, a throwback to the old Jill. Make it nasty and juicy, even if you repeat the same effing scripts from decades ago. I do not want to see marital bliss with Jack and Sally. How boring would that be?

Nailed it. That is exactly what happened. It’s ridiculous to pretend “we can’t really be sure.” We ARE sure. MIshael was horribly treated when her contract was up for renewal. Amanda the character not working? That’s on the damn writers, not on MM. If Josh Griffith were writing for Hilary today, he’d have her as a stay-at-home mommy blogger. And face it, just about EVERY story on the show turns into a blah. The Faith bullying story. Where are the bullies? We see no one. We hear no one. Texts? BLOCK THEM, DUMB FAITH. Make it make sense. And no, COVID-19 is no excuse for every effing story having no bodies to carry it off. If that’s the case, don’t do the story. The Chelsea revenge story. In 2 days she went from immobile to standing and now speaking as fast as she ever did. Of course, she also has a phone. Where are the beats? Why can’t Adam PRETEND to care about her when he leaves? Even damn roommates are warmer to each other. The Ashland L business sale. What’s with the name that seems impossible to pronounce and spell? Griffith can’t even get THAT right. And why are these major biz meetings held in HOTEL ROOMS? AT Crimson Lights? Just pathetic, and takes me out of every scene. Amanda. Great scenes with her mother and half-sister, then NOTHING for weeks. And is the sister gone already? JFC. The Devon Elena Nate Amanda story. I have no Faith this will go anywhere. The Abby surrogacy story. An ABOMINATION. Just pure TRASH while Nina and Ashley and Jill are WASTED. And please spare me another FaceTime with Jill. That stuff is sh*t. I have more, but I’m tired of typing. This show is infuriating.

i agree with you. It’s ludicrous to think that MM insisted she not return as Hilary. What is wrong with people making up this stuff out of thin air? And yes, that entire article is spin. We all know she left because they didn’t want to pay her, not because she played a character for 5 years.

I have to agree with you. Gaston was a great Chance on Y&R, but he was just awful as Ben on Days.

You really nail the problems with Bell’s writing. You said it all.

There’s no drama if Sally and Summer are friends.

Right. Make it make sense. Ron trots out the same evil guys over and over, whether they fit in the story or not. Criminals who would be locked away forever CONSTANTLY get out of jail. — mostly by some easy escape. It’s just hard to invest in stories like this. And don’t get me started on the way Kristen runs that jail and gets out.

Thanks for the therapy, honey. Back at you, though. *I’M* worked up over all of this? LOLOL You could have fooled me. And please. The idea that vets are always right and always have to be supported is too lame for words. It’s just ridiculous.

Sorry, when a slam is surrounded by a defense, people remember the slam. I don’t think that’s shade, subtle or otherwise. I don’t think VM watches GH, so she doesn’t know anyone she didn’t work with.

It’s just awful writing, and hiring a black scriptwriter won’t help if the HW is so effing terrible.

This is just bullsh_t to say Wes Ramsey is there because of Laura Wright or exec favoritism. Have all the theories you want, but in the end you know nothing. You have no knowledge of anything that goes on at GH. Dont come at TR? Why — is he untouchable? Do soap veterans always get it right, even when they dump on another castmate on video? Rogers’ ONLY specific callout was Wes Ramsey — and no one else. Not a casting director, not a writer, not a producer, not an actor. It was wrong, and it does not matter how bad you think WR is on the show. That is irrelevant. TR tells it like it is? Shove that. It’s what peon said about Trump. It’s what people say to excuse others who hurt people for no reason. Tristan Rogers’ “truth” did nothing but hurt another human being. I’m not asking anyone to start loving WR in that role. I am saying Rogers is the one who is wrong here. And then Wes writes a long IG and is criticized for THAT. My God. I can only imagine the grief he’d get if he mentioned TR in that message. Meanwhile, apparent saint Tristan Rogers is praised for his comments about Ramsey. Unbelievable.

Way too much of the Faith bullying mess was wrapped up in one scene with Faith, Nick, and Sharon. Awful.

Yes to most of this. All of you calling this more drama — that drama was created by Tristan Rogers, who stepped completely over the line in his criticism. Instead, Wes Ramsey gets knocked for a long response? GMAFB. Imagine how much it hurts to be bashed like that, knowing Soap Twitter already hates you — and now your other cast members get to see it up close, too? I never defended WR before this, but I’ll defend him now, and I feel sorry for him. TR is a good guy, but he screwed up. This is on him, and no, it’s not ok because he was “honest.” Screw honesty when it hurts others and does moth to make anything better. TR solved nothing. The number of people using this mess to go after Wes Ramsey even harder is disturbing and disgusting. They hate the character, but that’s bled into hating the actor. It’s appalling,and it’s sad. if you can’t see, after reading his IG, how all this has affected Ramsey, I feel sorry for you. It’s all one big example of how terrible social media can be.

Honestly, you’re too kind. She was looking rough and tired.

i can handle it just fine. I handle it by answering back.

You offer pretty much nothing but ugly criticism of Stafford and King, and your posts read like a Mean Girls Diary. That’s your business, of course, but it doesn’t make you a good judge of talent. Same. I can see slamming a character, or criticizing an actor’s approach to a role, but when it gets personal — and ugly — I’m calling it out. Stafford and King are both doing fine considering what’s been written for them. Do I miss Gina Tognoni? Yeah. I loved her. But I love Michelle Stafford, too. When I hear anyone discuss Phyllis, I picture MS in my mind. Some problematic stuff in Michelle’s past? Yeah — years ago, and it’s been played to death. Talk about beating a dead horse. I think it’s time we stopped roasting Stafford for whatever happened. Did she screw up with Victoria Rowell? If you believe everything we read, yeah. That doesn’t mean we EVER got the whole/real story about what happened. And no, I’m not blaming Rowell, either — I’d write Dru back in immediately if I could.

What is your problem with Michelle Stafford? Did she do something to you? Because your posts on here about her are vile and border on unhinged.

I agree. I don’t know what universe people are in when they don’t call Brandon Beemer good looking. Andyou know, we just went through all this negative talk about Martha Madison a few short month ago, didn’t we? I don’t think the girl gets that kind of airtime to deserve all this negativity, frankly. I think she’s fine in the role.

Someone that good looking is never forgettable.

Yeah, Maxie is way past any expiration date. I can’t take her any more.
