Not to sound like the folks on Twitter posting that “Denzel heart attack” gif, but that photo scared me for a sec.

Aw, Addie was always such an important part of my OLTL watching. Loved how fiercely protective Dorian was of her. May she rest in peace.

Saw this:

Ratings for all TV networks this year, ranked with percentage increases or decreases vs 2018. I’m surprised Variety didn’t list TLC among its winners with its big YOY gains.

Tennis Channel’s linear audience grew 33 percent in 2019, one of the few channels, broadcast or cable, to show any growth at all. A tiny audience, certainly, but notable. Maybe the return of WTA play brought back lapsed viewers?

I still don't understand the lack of Sally in all of this. Sally, of all characters, would be the one to bring him off the brink. It also could create a new angle with Liam and Wyatt. Liam would actually want Sally to get more involved with Thomas to keep him away from Hope, while Wyatt would want the exact opposite. That's far more plausible than the Zoe stretch.

This Thomas feels like a completely different character than the Pierson Fode version, which would account for the lack of Sally. I hate when soaps decide to totally reboot a character, especially when it wasn’t that long ago that we saw the previous iteration.

Yeah all of this sounds like the same 3 week nonstarters JG hasn't been able to get off the ground since he got here. 

 

Its hilarious to me that they clearly have no idea what to do with Michelle Stafford. She might as well suck it up and ask them to pair Jack and Phyllis again

It’s hilarious that they went through all that trouble to bring her back without a plan. They just thought that snatching her back from GH would be a coup in and of itself. They’ve gotten absolutely zero benefit in terms of story or viewers from ditching GT. One issue is that all of the people MS had chemistry with (save for Josh Morrow and Sharon Case) are off the show or apparently off limits (Bergman). I often thought Gina was a bit extra in her portrayal of Phyllis, but Michelle’s mugging is intolerable. That scene with Phyllis wrapping gifts in the hotel lobby while taunting Nick about Chelsea was just unwatchable.
