RIP: In Memoriam Thread
[!@#$%^&*]. Doug Sheehan always reminded me of James Stewart with his boyish good looks, quirky sense of humor and easy-going nature. No matter what kind of vehicle he was in - whether it was a soap (like GH or KL) or a sitcom ("Day by Day") or some cheesy TV movie - he always brought a sense of integrity to his role. (Which is why watching his exit storyline on KL is REALLY hard for me, because you could tell he was struggling with that material, for a number of reasons). I always wanted GH to bring him back (on a recurring basis) as Joe Kelly: still a gumshoe, still funny and charming, but maybe a little more weary on account of age and having seen it all many times over. Ah, well.

WOF, like "Jeopardy!," is so durable, because the concept's pretty simple: you spin the wheel, you solve the puzzle. Add in Vanna White (who has had one of the easiest jobs ever, but who is a total fashion plate) and Pat Sajak (who has maintained his quirky sense of humor, even if his politics can be repugnant for some) and you can see why the show blew up so quickly.

ALL: Daytime's Best Dads?
That was the show's simplistic writing for you. It never entered Sami's mind that John had been there for her when her actual parents were missing or presumed dead. Nope. Once the real Roman turned up, Sami just shifts her loyalties to him almost immediately (as if Roman had been there all along) and makes it clear she wants John out of their lives forever (even though John wasn't exactly the villain in this situation) with no inner conflict over her actions whatsoever. If anything, I think Sami should have been trying to KEEP John and Marlena together, not tear them apart and essentially guilt Marlena into staying with Roman.

The Media/Journalism Thread
Bullseye! My fear remains this: people on the right, as well as some on the left, want to pick off Biden for various reasons, so they'll succeed in convincing the Democratic Party to force Biden out. Then, come Election Day, the Democrats will be gobsmacked when the candidate whom they pick to replace Biden AND who they think can defeat Trump actually gets trounced in the election. IOW, we Democrats are about to do what we always do: play right into our bullies' hands.

ARTICLE: George Stephanopoulos to Speak with President Joe Biden In First Television Interview Post-Debate With Former President Donald Trump
See what you've done, America? You've forced our commander in chief to have a sit-down with George [!@#$%^&*] Stephanopoulos. I hope you're all proud of yourselves, you morons.

"Chinatown" is a brilliant movie: one that's as relevant today as it was when it premiered. He will be missed.

They can try, but what's true about Trump is true about Biden as well: the media needs him a lot more than he needs them.

Exactly. You know what they say: a Kennedy isn't really a Kennedy until someone accuses them of sexual assault.
