I can't believe they actually named the place "Sweet Bits." Like, WTF, DAYS?

Gregory Harrison and Susan Lucci might have made for a hot couple onscreen, but Harrison is the sort of actor who can generate at least a little bit of chemistry with any female he's paired with. Even w/ Valerie Bertinelli, whom "King of the Hill" fans are CONVINCED he once starred in a Lifetime movie with, lol. PREACH!

Well, I am, and I make no apologies for it either, lol. Children are not interesting to watch. Period. Which is why I've never frowned upon the practice of SORASing, even if I think many soaps do it too quickly. There are exceptions, of course, like Jonathan Jackson and Rachel Miner. Most of the time, however, child actors are just so damn insufferable. Then again, I still suffer with PTSD from watching Ashley Peldon for three years on GL, so that probably clouds my judgment a bit, lol. Same here. I've been saying for a very long time that Alexis doesn't need THREE daughters on the canvas. If anything, Alexis should have had maybe a son and ONE daughter and no mas. Exit interview? It was a pretty big story from what I remember, even if the murders all occurred in one city. But, like you said, @carolineg, they still don't know for certain who was responsible (even if the authorities still have their theories, lol).

Yeah, her, too, lol!

SW? [!@#$%^&*] that. I'd want MVJ to make him her co-HW, if only to avenge the raw deals he clearly got at GH and GL.

Exactly, lol! I never would have guessed that I would live one day in a world where Emma [!@#$%^&*] Stone is a two-time Academy Award winner. But here we are!

Yep! I really do wonder who else MVJ could snag for her first writing team. Besides Mulcahey, there's Susan Dansby, Michelle Patrick, maybe Thom Racina (since he and MVJ worked together at GENERATIONS and SaBa)....

LOL!!

IOW, Patrick Mulcahey is comin' to THE GATES, lol!

You mean while YOU were high, or...? I'm joking. When I read @DRW50's post about the "bad pills" storyline on "Hollyoaks," my mind went immediately to the Tylenol murders. "Yes," I thought, "now THAT would be a GREAT way to trim that cast!" I didn't realize they actually were talking about something else entirely, lol.

CUT TO: "And the Oscar goes to...LOUIS TOMEO!!"

Let me get this straight, Zack: you LEFT your wallet and other valuables inside your car overnight?

So, B&B no longer employs Jack Allocco and David Kurtz as composers?

Oh no. It's not...him, is it? Ugh. And I thought her getting killed on that jet ski was the worst thing ever.

I do recall at least one run-in between CW/Annie and LW/Cassie, but you're right, LW joined GL in '97 and CW left in '98. Translation: Kim Delaney didn't work out.

They got a lot of practice on GL.

Thank you!

Gregory was a character we didn't know very well and didn't care about, tied to OTHER characters we don't care about; and as with most stories that GH has told for the past ten-plus years, they dragged their feet with Gregory's story so much and for so long that any chance they MIGHT have had to GET us to care about it had evaporated long ago. I'm with you and @Vee, @carolineg: the ending was anticlimactic, but at least it's at its' end.

I've said this before in other threads, but the problem with doing stories about incurable diseases such as Alzheimer's or ALS is that they offer no hope to viewers in a medium that, at its' core, is supposed to offer hope. (Like the song says, "there's always tomorrow.") Furthermore, what's to keep viewers from tuning out once the afflicted party inevitably passes away? It's like when OLTL's Megan died of complications from lupus. The show, and then-HW Michael Malone, got a lot of good press and attention for telling that story - and rightfully so! Once it was over, however, I was like, "Okay, now what?" Suspense is a crucial element in any good soap story - or any story, for that matter - but when the character dies at the end - and it's assumed that that death cannot be reversed down the road - then the suspense is pretty much gone; and with it has gone any reason to keep tuning in.

For me, the problem isn't that she won't perform a sex scene. (And by the way, could we please stop making it sound as if we're begging JS and AS to do hardcore porn, lol?). It's that neither she nor her on-screen husband give us anything in the way of romance. Even a handshake is seemingly "off limits" to those two. Naturally, when it's THAT chaste, the lack of love scenes becomes all the more noticeable.

Adam Gregory (allegedly) didn't want to do kissing scenes, but he was okay portraying a reality show contestant who was accused of sexual assault on "L&O: SVU"? Sigh. My fellow Christians really can tire me out sometimes, lol. Again: you will not go to Hell if you are an actor and you so much as kiss someone on camera! If you're letting your faith dictate your acting career to that degree, then what are you even doing in the business?

Bloomers, eh? So, they've glammed up Grandma Brook Lynn after all! Nah, I've even seen Amy Grant videos that were more PG-13 than Chase and BLQ. I think the entire writing team should be fired. Frank really should quit GH and go produce a kids' talent show. It's painfully obvious that that's where his heart is.

Production also has no issue forcing that children's talent show reject, Violet, on us at will.

I won't be shocked if they start referring to each other as "Mother" and "Father" soon! Watching Chase and BLQ is like watching LOVE OF LIFE during the Jean Holloway era, but I know it can't be, because there's no one named "Bambi" around to eat the damn show!

And I don't WANT them to be doing simulated sex on screen. But I DO want to believe that they're newlyweds and not morning show hosts.
