Giovanni Mazza is 19 and Evan Hofer is 28, so Dex being Gio's dad is out of the question. I'm with you guys on this one -- Gio doesn't need a dad connection on this show, and neither does Dex.

Why are Poppy and Luna so STUNNED that Bill wants to adopt Luna legally??? Isn't that the normal and expected thing?

-- We won't ever see this LGBTQIA youth center. It's another token move by GH so they can pretend they're diverse and responsible. I think it's appalling. -- And Kristina is talking about suing TJ for custody? Talk about escalating. -- Violet? Besides all the other problems listed here with her character, saddling Chase and Brook Lynn with a kid not even a month into their marriage is really a choice. They should be in this honeymoon passion phase, but instead we get roles written for a middle-aged couple who takes on child-rearing. Jesus. -- Does anyone know why Gio had a scene on today's show? All he did was walk in on Chase and Brook Lynn, say he showed Violet around because she was lost, and made his way outside to play his violin. WTF was that?

I think you understand why I make fun of the Tom character. I don't consider him in any way a representation of the homeless. He's a caricature and a cartoon, and anything I say about him has nothing to do with my feelings about the homeless.

How about making it clear that all you're doing is guessing? You have no scoop, no inside information on any of this, yet you post as if you know something.

I hope you're just having fun with me.

LOL That's true. Honestly, those "I'm cleaning the apartment" scenes are hilarious. With those short denim shorts and BOOTS, Joss is dressed for the rodeo. She puts on these LONG-assed rubber gloves to "clean" an apartment that looks like it's already been scrubbed by Mr. Clean. Gio builds a Lego Jenga Fort with a dozen scrub pads while Trina shows up with a box. I mean, I was HYSTERICAL! 😂

And what about this? What the hell are they doing at GH? Maybe we're supposed to see Gio as a pre-teen, because I sure don't see him chasing either Trina or Joss.

I'm sorry, but I do not want to see Tom the Homeless Dumpster Diver on my screen every day. Who the hell wants to see this??? And now he's going to perform at the Outdoor Pizza Dive where mice reside in the wall ivy?

That Leo stuff was horrific -- scene after scene of scenery chewing from both of them. Worst of all, none of it achieved its goal of "redeeming" Leo, allowing us to see inside his soul, and realizing why he is the way he is. Now Leo tells Dr. Marlena his mother called him a degenerate? That word hasn't been used since Tennessee Williams' Streetcar Named Desire. And if that really bothered Leo, then the character we've seen all these years makes no sense. -- So Leo goes from practically crying about his mother to Dr. Marlena to geeking out over hot and hunky Dr. Mark. If this is Kool-Aid, it's so watered down it's pathetic. This is not a changed Leo, it's not an introspective Leo. -- I like the Mark character, too, although it was an eye-roller to see him hugging a distraught Leo. Ridiculous. -- I shouldn't admit that I didn't feel much when Chanel lost her baby. Maybe I was too busy noticing that while she was in severe pain, Dr. Mark just stood there, and then just stared at the ultrasound. Hilarious. That was before he pulled out Wikipedia to announce "One in four pregnancies ends in miscarriages." Jesus, this show. --Finally, are we to completely forget that Judi Evans EVER played Bonnie? Because Bonnie has disappeared and Adrienne is all that's left.

Were we ever shown Joss cleaning like a demon before? She said she's "obsessive" about it, and that entire sequence made me LOL. The dialogue in those Joss/Gio scenes was....special.

Why does Lucy have a hairstyle that makes her look like a 40-year old nurse?

Disappointing. I really wanted Greg Vaughan's Lucky to return. All I think about with JJ is tears, tears, and more tears.

I get that. But these "You were the love of my life" declarations from Hope are ridiculous, and make her look like a psycho.

Hope to Thomas (while she shakes uncontrollably with sadness and fear): "I really thought you returned to restart our lives together, Thomas." Are you frickin kidding me, Hope? You mean the guy you haven't mentioned in 3 months??? While you've been asking for and getting massages from a married doctor???

Since March.

-- Maxie at the park while on her phone: "Georgie, James can't have ice cream for breakfast!" Uh....so is Georgie eating ice cream? -- Valentin to Anna: "Let me show you out." They were about 3 feet from the front door.

LOL. Yep. I wanted Tate to tweet "We didn't even get to hump."

LMAOOOOOOOOO So true. You'd think she'd instead yell at him for that scraggly beard and scraggly bug-infested hair. We went from Hollis to this???

That ENORMOUS list -- 24 names!!! -- tells you everything that's wrong about the opening. I rewound to watch it again, and many of the updates are good ones, but each photo should get a moment to make an impression, and that doesn't happen. Two seconds later, you forget who was in the open. Y&R gives us 8 headshots, and that means each actor gets that moment. You then have an idea who's going to appear on that episode.

Back at ya! 😄

C'mon, Soaps, Leo Howard is just 26, not almost 30. Your rounding up method is mean, especially during Pride month. LOLOL. But those texts were gag-worthy for sure. Tate said Holly said Tate gave her the "perfect prom"? And Tate responds "We'll always have tonight"? HUH??? Did I miss something? A lamer prom I have never seen -- and that's before the whole thing was upended by Criminal Mom.

Jane Elliott is just so good. She's the heart of GH right now. Genie Francis should share that honor with her, but Laura is so poorly/weirdly written that Genie isn't even in the competition. I cared about Finn for 1o minutes a few weeks ago. Then that feeling went away.

For me, the scnes with EOB playing Theresa as a mom don't work. There's nothing about her that screams "Mother."

And didn't we not too long ago see Paris walking down the aisle with Carter, who she knew for about 10 minutes? Regardeless, I guess we're all tuning in because we want to see Tom the Homeless Dumpster Diver look longingly at Luna and Poppy.
