The Politics Thread
Because the very definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Hell, who am I kidding? It's about $$$$$$$$. Screw democracy!

Alas, this can all go sideways quickly. Why? Guess who the judge is? AILEEN CANNON. I know.

General Hospital: May 2023 Discussion Thread
I think the bigger question is, will there even be scab writers this time around? Because from everything I'm reading, the WGA is really digging in against that this time around, assuming writers want to be a part of that union. Makes me wonder if ABC will indeed raid their back catalog. Maybe do some theme weeks honoring lost actors/characters? Like have a week devoted to Alan Quartermaine, Edward Quartermaine, Bobbie Spencer, etc.

Knots Landing
Actually, I think a lot of shows do this! A therapist on one of the L&O shows had the same as name as one of the crew members in the credits. Must be an easy way to get options.

Santa Barbara Discussion Thread
Chiming in that actors are like the rest of us and timelines can be skewed in their minds. That said, I also believe Jed Allan was referring to Wanda De Jesus. He was not shy in his dislike of her.

Just more "peaceful protesting", right-wing, Nazi style.

Another World Discussion Thread
Deadline has another WGA Strike article up with various photos. One photo includes Thomas Ian Griffith and Mary Page Keller. Griffith seems to rock a gray beard. All pictures are labeled, albeit in tiny lettering, but scroll among the other photos and you should come across it. (Just click the above link.)

Yawn. She can't do jack schitt. This is just more performance theater for the knuckle-dragging MAGA cult.

So she wants President Harris? Whatever to that lunatic.

GH: Temporary Recast!
Clearly, Haley Pullos has problems, both legal and personal. DUI could have resulted in her killing someone or herself. All that said, if Molly is recast for good, maybe...have Lexi play Molly if the show is determined to have Kate Mansi? (I know, likely too confusing and whatnot. But a nice fantasy of an idea.)

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
I get what you're saying, but at the time Bobbie and Luke appeared with the whole Luke/Laura/Ice Princess craze, GH transcended "just" soap press. As someone said, it became a cultural phenomenon. For better or worse, that never happened for the P&G soaps, so as unfair as it may be, the passing of actors from those shows won't get much notice.

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
And Jacklyn Zeman, along with Anthony Geary, Genie Francis, etc., LITERALLY saved GH from cancellation and helped turn it into the pop culture phenomenon that GH became in the early '80s. That soap reached viewer numbers at that time that NO other soap has or will ever see. In that context, I get why a rival network would acknowledge Jackie Zeman's passing.

GH: Jackie Zeman passed away
Copied from the article thread in the news forum here: Saw this on Twitter. I still can't quite believe it. Bobbie may have become marginalized, but JZ still was a link to GH's great past. Barbara Jean Spencer was a great bad girl gone good...or at least, a gray character. May Jaclyn Zeman rest in peace. And per the question above, another Tweet said it was a short battle with cancer. Damn.

Saw this on Twitter. I still can't quite believe it. Bobbie may have become marginalized, but JZ still was a link to GH's great past. Barbara Jean Spencer was a great bad girl gone good...or at least, a gray character. May Jaclyn Zeman rest in peace.

The Media/Journalism Thread
But the issue is, once again, the media has learned jack s*h*i*t from 2016. Keep pushing this POS, and he can once again have a chance next year. And that will be the end of our democracy. Not hyperbole. FACT. But as long as CNN and its ilk get $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, they no longer give a rat's f*u*c*k.

Failed Georgia Senate hopeful Herschel Walker may be in some deep financial doodoo involving wire fraud. No wonder he seemed so comfortable, running as a Republican!

Too bad there is no accountability for SCOTUS. They get to make laws for OTHERS. But THEY don't have to follow them! (See Clarence and Ginni Thomas as more examples.)

I have a theory, bit it's sort of tied to a possible casting spec/spoiler posted some time back, so I can't say here. But I'm so glad Bo/Hope are together.
