GH: February 2024 Discussion Thread
If only you people could remember this more often, it'd make life so much easier! But seriously. Drew developing a sexual attraction to the woman who turned him into the authorities (and vice-versa) sounds twisted af, but it's exactly the kind of edgy, heat-generating psychosexual drama that was GH's stock-in-trade in the past, and what the show desperately needs right now. It doesn't make any sense, but it doesn't need to: Drew and Nina can't stand each other now, but they can't get enough of each other either. As long as you keep it all kinky and envelope-pushing, and you don't water it down the way Valentin and Anna have been watered down, that's all ye need to make that combo work.

Y&R: February 2024 Discussion Thread
Personally, I don't think any of Nikki's battles with the bottle have been interesting. Nor does it make sense to me that Jack is a recovering alcoholic and drug addict himself. (Sex addict? Maybe. Drug addict and alcoholic? No). If anyone on this show should be an alcoholic, it should be Jill. I've always felt Jill should have ended up like Kay: a rich, old lush with a yen for hot, younger men. Oh Lord, lol.

ALL: Which back-from-the-dead characters should have stayed dead?
I agree. Supervillains should have died off (and stayed dead) a long time ago.

DAYS: Doug & Julie Remember Tom & Alice! | promo (February 16, 2024)
We can only hope. Personally, I don't get Doug and Julie reminiscing about Tom and Alice, even if it is (or was) Tom and Alice's home originally. I mean, wouldn't Doug and Julie reminisce instead about the times they themselves spent in the house (complete with flashbacks to actual previous episodes)?

Paramount + & Showtime to merge
I guess this is the part where Paramount+/Paramount+ with Showtime employees just throw up their hands and sigh, "Well, as long as our paychecks still clear the bank." Also, wasn't it not long ago that there were talks of Warner Bros. Discovery Aldi's merging with Paramount Global Petsmart? Has Shari Redstone decided that running her dad's business all alone is just too hard?

ARTICLE: ‘CBS Mornings’ Tops ‘Good Morning America’ and ‘TODAY’ Among Total Viewers
I prefer "CBS Mornings" to the others as well. GMA and "Today" just try too hard to be "sunny" entertainment.

Y&R: February 2024 Discussion Thread
I could be wrong about this, but I've always suspected that Phillip Chancellor was an opportunist who had preyed upon the widowed Kay Reynolds, took over her late husband's company (and renamed it after himself) and turned her into a drunk before leaving her for a younger, prettier woman. But, again, I'm probably wrong in my interpretation.

I think KL always meant for Joshua to be an antagonist, but given what we now know about Michael Filerman's personal distaste for Alec Baldwin, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Filerman made the other producers and writers lean harder onto that in order to force Baldwin off the show.- DAYS: February 2024 Discussion Thread
- ALL: Worst acting moments
Ah! Okay. I got it now...I think...? Anyways, here's one I'd add to the list: Jacqueline Courtney's performance as OLTL's Pat Kendall, when her character learns that Talbot Huddleston, Karen Wolek's first john (of many, so many she still, to this day, doesn't remember all their names), was the hit-and-run driver who killed her young son, Brian. I could understand Pat literally going for Talbot's jugular when Karen drops that bombshell in court (even though, I still want to know why no one in the courthouse didn't rush toward her the minute she got up from that bench), but between the timing of that revelation (mere minutes after Karen confesses her hooking to all of Llanview, and to Larry) and the pitch of Courtney's voice and actions in that moment...it just did neither actor nor character any favors. In fact, it kinda gives credence to the long-held rumors that then-EP Joe Stuart was having an affair with Courtney and viewed her as the star of the show.- ALL: Worst acting moments

Thanks, @Soapsuds, for the correction. For some reason, I remembered it happening later than it did, lol. It's really a shame that Douglas Marland wasn't alive to see the Neal Alcott storyline through to the end. If he had, I think it would've been a dynamite storyline, complete with star power in the form of Mary Kay Adams as Neal, Terry Lester as Royce and Richard Bekins as (IIRC) Neal's ex-husband, Michael.- GH: February 2024 Discussion Thread

- GH: AMC actress joining
I'd love to know whose idea it was to bring GA/Marco over to GH, because, to me, it just seems so random, even if I think it actually turned out well. No, we won't! I'm pitching a production of David Mamet's "A Life in the Theatre" where he and Roger Howarth play all the parts.- GH: February 2024 Discussion Thread
