No Anne Schoettle for GH again. Looks like she only lasted a cycle. I'd say just demote Korte back to Script Editor. LOL

We all know your bias towards JMW/Steffy but to say Crew is a better actor than KKL or Annika??? What? Come on. I'm going to stick up for Laneya Grace - I think she's doing a decent job with her first dramatic scenes. I see potential with her, especially with her being very young. And I think Crew does an okay job in his day-to-day scenes - he hasn't done anything dramatic yet. With Will/Electra being such a good looking couple, it's such a big missed opportunity to have such bad writing for them.

Nice catch! Rick was with DAYS for a long time. Wonder who he replaced, if he did. Jamey? Schock? Just wondering, how did you find this? Do you just search random writers at linkedin? LOL

Yes, I got very lucky. Was able to get tickets at face value, so I never paid those ridiculous secondary market prices. That's awesome you're going to watch the tour movie with him. Taylor is for everyone. LOL You could be 5 years old or 65 years old and you would see them at her concerts. She is someone who you can listen to with your family, no matter the age. It's a reason why her fanbase is so huge - it's very inclusive and welcoming.

Can't wait to see more of David and Rachel together. Praying this is good because Superman has always been my #1 along with Batman. Batman has been very successful while Superman has been crapped on for decades by critics and most people. I personally loved Superman Returns and enjoyed Man Of Steel.

Why do you think whose name appears on top means anything? It's just a rotation. Crediting/blaming one writer over the other based on the rotation has no credibility.

Seeing those Liz/Lucky flashbacks reminded me of my huge crush on Becky in the late 90's. She was so beautiful/cute. Cyrus being the killer did surprise me because I thought he was Sidwell (though that seem like a too obvious choice).

The Eras Tour is over. 😭 It's been such a huge part of my life these last 21 months, from leaving my country to see her three times, to watching live streams, to scrolling through tons of clips on IG, and to making life-long friends. I can't wait for the next tour. Billboard: Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour Wraps as First Tour to Pass $2 Billion in Sales Swift played to 10 million fans from 2023-24. On Sunday night (Dec. 8), Taylor Swift played the last of 149 shows on The Eras Tour. As reported earlier Monday, the record-setting trek grossed more than $2 billion and sold over 10 million tickets: $2,077,618,725 and 10,168,008, respectively, to be exact. The news was first reported by The New York Times. Without qualification, The Eras Tour is the highest-grossing tour of all time, by artists of any genre, and from any era in music history. If compared to data officially reported to Billboard Boxscore, it is the biggest tour ever by an unthinkable distance of more than $900 million, blasting past Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres World Tour (2022-ongoing) – the only other tour to gross more than $1 billion – by a margin of almost two-to-one. Even before The Eras Tour was announced, Swift was one of the most successful touring acts of her generation. Dating back to her first reported solo headline show at Sovereign Performing Arts Center in Reading, Pa. (April 6, 2007), she has grossed $3 billion across her career, when adding The Eras Tour’s sum to officially reported data for her prior tours to Billboard Boxscore. Previously, her biggest tour – according to Billboard Boxscore – came when Swift brought in $345.7 million and sold 2.9 million tickets on 2018’s Reputation Stadium Tour, marking a 38% leap from the earnings on 2015’s The 1989 World Tour. The Eras Tour multiplies her prior best more than six times over. -------------------- The bolded part - what an insane stat! She could've played a hundred more shows and they woul'dve all sold out. The demand was there. The scary thing is, she's brought in NEWER/MORE fans since this tour started. So there's a possibility, the next tour could be even bigger if she decides she wants to break her own record.

Someone uploaded a 15min version of this???? WTF. hahaha

Though Cody should've mentioned she looked familiar, I really liked their "first meeting." Lulu's been awake for 10 mins and she's already flirting with the first guy she meets. LOL I liked their flirtation and joking around, and talking about family, him giving her money and his number after dropping her off. It was nice. I'm sold on Alexa. She's great!

Are people really holding a grudge over a couple of lines from 20+ years ago? LOL Eilbaum sometimes goes weeks without directing. It's not unusual. We know Williford is directing BTG but don't know if it's contract or not. I could be that he's just helping them out for a bit and then he'll be back at Y&R. I wonder what happened. She was Griffitih's #2 and has been with Y&R since 2008, surviving multiple regime changes.

Interesting development! If she was still on staff as a Co-HW, it wouldn't matter if she wrote that particular episode or not, she would still be listed. If she's not listed again tomorrow, then it probably means she left the show (either fired or took a leave of absence).

Just a reminder that these monthly discussion threads are meant to discuss what's happening now. Yes, we can discuss about the past here and there, but don't let it go on for multiple pages. We have other threads if you want to talk about the history of the show.
