And McEnroe replying, “Good point.” Wow. 

(Didn’t Tatum O’Neal make allegations against Johnny Mac?)

Unclear if it would have made a difference here, since there were many different drugs involved, but users should invest in those fentanyl test strips, at the very least.

I remember when they tried to launch a Doctor Who theatrical feature-film franchise. What a debacle that was. I get that they are under incredible financial scrutiny, but the BBC always make things 100 times harder than they need to be.

Ohhhh… Nikki Newman is so big and bad! All hail the new Stephanie Forrester with nothing to back it up. 

Deidre is always great when she’s allowed to camp it up a bit. She’s incredibly funny.

He is apparently taking over the entire production and bringing in his crew, supplanting the BBC Studios producers.

Ahhh, that intrigues me more than anything else. They had to make *some* concessions to lure him back.

Lydia West reminds me of Tessa Thompson.

I definitely think the RTD era has aged poorly, but when he’s good, he’s excellent, and I’m interested in seeing what he does after all these years.

I’m somewhat surprised that he’d want to return to that crucible, given the creative freedom offered by his other projects. They can’t have offered him much money, as they don’t have much money to spare.

You beat me to it. I was about to post this. I was watching live when it happened.

Good that they have protocols in place, but would Joy and Sara be potentially close contacts? What does this mean for the show in the near term? Would Sunny be remote or off the show?

Wow

AJ from the Philippines  

No cause of death offered. The U.K. entertainment industry feels like it’s gotten hit hard this year.

I can’t with Paris’s stupidity. It’s deeply unpleasant to watch her be this dumb.

I love her. It was so nice seeing her. She fit right back in like NOTHING. Same for Star Jones.

Lisa Ling returns to The View:

 

I saw Star on the 9/11 ep, and yes she did fit in well.

It was great seeing Lisa Ling again too.

She was on as a panelist? Love her too. She’s as real as they come.

I remember doing a presentation on Sweet Sweetback in school. R.I.P. pioneer.

F*** that dude. Glad he’s getting roasted in the replies.

But after seeing Twitter posting Facebook comments on GH, it's clear that's the audience they are after.

Yep. I need to break the habit like so many others have. For many longtime viewers, Guza was enough lol. Glutton for punishment right here! Just need to let the Ryan’s Hope YouTube playlist roll during the daytime hours.

Welcome to the last 15+ years.

This is probably the longest time I’ve actually watched GH on a daily basis since the early 2000s (due to the pandemic and having fewer obligations).

But ooof, trash. Can’t do it.

It is not dramatic. It is exactly how I feel. Those who read this forum know I have a tendency to be very indulgent with soaps and try to emphasize the good things they do even when everything sucks. But I am beyond incandescent about this. For the exact reason you said. They got me to trust them this would be worth it and it really really really wasn't. I feel like a major sucker.
While I suspect it is not their fault, the current writers shouldn't count on me ever investing anything into any new attempt to tell a long-term tale ever again.

Nope. I thought they *might* actually have the balls to really shake things up. Very naive.

I both understand and don't understand pairing Sharna and Brian. I like Brian but honestly I think Sharna could do better

 

And yup. They want those viral moments. When you think about it, a lot of shows seem driven by the desire to have 'viral moments'

 

Yep. 

 

My Mom loved DWTS. She watches The Voice now. Not even joking lol. I've never cared much for The Voice for whatever reason. It's interesting because I thought my Mom wouldn't like Tyra when she hosted America's Got Talent, but she did (Tyra was much better there IIRC) but yeah dumping Tom was a HUGE mistake. 

 

I believe ABC saw "an old white guy" hosting and Tyra was an appealing replacement. It just hasn't worked.

 

Now NBC has got him. NBC always picks up Fox and ABC personality's that are discarded. LOL

Ariana is a nice addition to The Voice, but I’m kinda over that show. It’s always been about the celebs and their banter. Which works if you love the celebs and their chemistry, but it gets old, even with a new panelist every few years. The show I really love is Songland, with a panel of star songwriters like Ryan Tedder judging and workshopping songs with aspiring songwriters, who pitch songs for a different artist each week. It’s a great window into that creative world.

I totally agree that ABC saw “old white guy” with Tom, but they didn’t see the value in that particular “old white guy.” If they were aiming for a change, someone with more warmth (like a Nick Cannon or a Cat Deeley, who are great hosts on their Fox shows) would have been better. 

Last year, I remember Artem’s partner was injured, and he stopped by during the live show to chat with Tyra and update everyone on his partner’s condition. After the interview was over, Artem was just standing there while Tyra was introducing the next performance, and Tyra sorta scooted over so Artem wouldn’t be in her shot. That’s the kinda vibe I get from her.

What’s the point of Ridge siccing Justin on Quinn and Carter?
