Toups

Probably because it wasn't his decision to bring Mulcahey back. Just speculation....but it's kind of obvious. Let's see if the person who decided to bring Mulcahey back will take a step back.

Canada with the upset win in the men's 4x100M relay! Americans botched the handoff and were DQ'd.

Aww....Emily is fantastic. Love her. I hope she goes to GH or even comes back to DAYS in a year or two.

OMG Those places. hahahaha. Yes, I meant the Coffeerooms... I knew it was coffee related. Dustin didn't have his own boards but had a link to Coffeeroom.....I think. Wow. Blast from the past. My days before SON was created. LOL Thanks for the laugh.

Mulcahey should've came back as a SW because that is his best role. I'm disappointed he didn't even write one script. I hope when he joins The Gates, it will be as a SW. Some people aren't meant to create and plot out stories.

I can assure you StevieM is not a troll (I don't remember anything he's done that's "trolly" in the last 20+ years, even going back further to the late 90's at Dustin's DOOL page message board....Days cafe or something like that, I forget LOL), and calling him that because you disagree with his takes was unnecessary. We can't go around constantly calling people trolls for simply posting "unpopular" opinions.

I love that Chris is back, but I'm disappointed Korte is still Co-HW. During Chris and Dan's regime, GH was always the best soap, and it was never boring for too long. It's been great since Kristina fell through the window. There's been more action is a week than Mulcahey/Korte's entire regime. LOL I'm excited to watch the show again.

Serbia blew it! They were so close to winning. Will be rooting for France. LOL

THR: Taylor Swift Eras Tour Shows Canceled in Vienna After Arrests Made in Planned Terrorist Attack Austrian concert promoter Barracuda Music shared the announcement in a social media post on Wednesday writing, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Vienna Shows cancelled due to government officials confirmation of planned terrorist attack. With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety.” It was obviously the right decision to cancel the concerts, but I feel so bad for the fans who waited over a year for this, especially those who were about to see Taylor for the first time, or those young children who had their outfits planned and friendship bracelets made. I was lucky enough to attend the Eras Tour three times - I was just in Europe last month to see her twice - and one of the favourite moments from the concerts was seeing so many happy young children. I remember this one girl who was probably 7-8 years old......my friends and I were making friendship bracelets in the hotel restaurant before our concert in Amsterdam......she and her mom walk in, and the girl is decked out in this black reputation style outfit and her hair was slicked back and her wrists were full of friendship bracelets. She was so cute and the concert was going to be her first ever concert. And now there are thousands of parents who will have to break their children's heart. I know it's just a concert and it's good that nothing truly horrendous happened but this really sucks. And this coming after those senseless murders of three young girls in the UK who attended a Taylor Swift theme event at their dance studio. Taylor brings so much joy to people and it's awful to see deranged people ruin that.

I'm in Canada. You're in Germany. This election affects us too, it affects the world. It's so gross seeing Trump flags and MAGA hats up here. He needs to lose.

Woah. This is really bad. I like Budig.....but....what? LOL Love the Lexi Ainsworth joke of her being cast as Kelly. 😂

Walz just made a couch joke!! This guy is great and not just for that joke. LOL. I'm so pumped for this Harris/Walz ticket and I'm not even American.

I've liked Kristen Vaganos from the beginning and I'm glad to see more people praising her. She and Kate Mansi are by far the best Molly and Kristina. They are especially good in their scenes together. After months of the show being extremely boring, I'm glad the show is watchable again. There's actually stuff happening! The episode continuation is better too.

I don't know anything about him but he does some like a very confident dude and likes to showboat. But kudos to him for backing it up with winning the gold. If you're gonna talk-the-talk, you gotta walk-the-walk.

I don't think I've seen a race that close at the Olympics! Five-thousands of a second. Wow!! Watching it live, I thought Thompson won. But Lyles sure had a fast last couple of meters because he was trailing.

Damn. I missed most of the Djokovic/Alcaraz match and apparently is was really good. I just caught the last tie-break. Novak finally gets the gold medal that was the only thing he was missing from his unbelievable career.

To be fair, it wasn't Ron's idea to do Possession 2.0. But yeah, the writing could've been better. However, I would take Ron at Y&R. I think at Y&R he wouldn't be able to do his campiness, his silliness, his inside jokes. A toned down Carlivati could be good. His first number of months at OLTL, before the 2007 strike, was excellent, as was his first couple of years at GH.

Imane in tears after winning her match today, moving her to the semis. I'm so rooting for her.

Summer McIntosh with her 3rd gold medal! And she's only 17! What a thrilling ending with Summer trailing and then pulling ahead for the win.

Ooops, I must've glossed over that part of Guza being an EP. I knew he wouldn't join a soap as such a BDW or SW. LOL. Thanks.

Wow, Bob Guza back in daytime! I can't see him joining as just a breakdown writer or script writer. I wonder if he'll get a secondary co-HW title, or a Story Consultant title. The other writer has to be Mulcahey. Is MVJ reuniting the old GH team? Is Karen Harris next? But I agree with those saying you have to add younger writers as well. JHC is daytime veteran who can handle day-to-day production - I was wondering who would get this job because all the EPs of the show don't have history with day-to-day soap production.

Please use the daily hotness thread if people want to constantly post pictures of their fantasies. This thread is to discuss the events at the Olympics.

I can't sing enough praises about Emily O'Brien. She was wonderful Friday as she was during the wedding revelation. I don't know if Emily is leaving or not, but I think it would be a shame to lose her. She's one of the best actresses on the show.
