Days: Spoiler detail about a returning character...
Saw on another board, per SOD, when Sarah - the real Sarah - comes back, the injection that Kristen gave her has made Sarah fragile and - get this - she believes she is Renee Dumonde and in love with Tony. Jesus. Ron must have picked an old character name out of a hat. I know some like this kind of stuff, but it seems sort of insulting to me, especially since Philece Sampler is now gone.

Days Cin Spoiler
Just like Courtney on GH, pregnant for like only 3 months with Spencer, gives birth and then croaked during the Monkey Virus in 2006. Didn't care about her, don't care about this. At least the apathy on my end is consistent.

Characters: The Aborted & The Wasted
Her behavior about being paired with JR Martinez was pretty heinous. I had a lot of respect for the audience seeing past Martinez's looks and embracing him. Too bad Ehlers was so damned shallow. No loss when she got the boot.

ARTICLE: ‘General Hospital’ Updates Opening Sequence with New Theme Music and New Cast Images
Watched the video. Looks and sounds generic as hell. And cheap. I mean, I know budgets have been slashed, but this looks like something a tween with Photoshop would do! Two thumbs way down.

Days: Xander Spoiler
THIS. I hate the useless retcon that is Gwen.

Characters: The Aborted & The Wasted
Killing Sabrina was a mercy killing - for the audience. I was not sorry in the slightest to see her go. But I agree that she could have just left town with her kid with...was it Carlos?...in tow and alive.

DAYS: three characters return - promo

Santa Barbara Discussion Thread
I think that was the point, though. The show was clearly invested in CC/Sophia as the rootable pairing. Lionel would have muddied the waters. And considering the history there, perhaps the writers thought that option would be insurmountable for CC/Sophia to overcome.

Characters: The Aborted & The Wasted
As was said, I'm sure Elisabeth Rohm is a lovely woman, but when even the Law & Order fandom refers to you as Rohmbot, you know you're not exactly popular. (The way the character was disposed of, however, was just head scratchingly WTF! But her replacement, fellow soap vet, Annie Parisse, had it even worse.) I was stunned to read somewhere - forget where - that Rohm was David Boreanaz's first choice for Temperance Brennan on Bones. Then, of course, Emily Deschanel got the role, she and DB got on well, and the show was a hit. So...

We literally had lunatic extraordinaire, MTG, complaining about Pelosi and the "gazpacho" (instead of Gestapo) police. Yes, this is real life. We are DOOMED if such criminal idiots keep infecting the Senate.

RIP: In Memoriam Thread
Here is the same clip as above but with the original music. Lesser quality, but the replacement generic music drives me nuts!

Instant karma's gonna get you, knock you right in the head, better get yourself together, darlin', pretty soon you're gonna be dead. Huh. Who knew John Lennon was a visionary? Buh bye. So much for owning the libs, huh?

RIP: In Memoriam Thread
I knew he had issues, but wow. Original Charlie Brown voice actor Peter Robbins ("A Charlie Brown Christmas"/"It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown", etc.) dead at 65 from suicide.

Joe Biden has ZERO phucks left to give, and I am HERE for it, baby. He literally called Peter Doocy a "stupid son of a bitch". Is it undignified? Perhaps. But the right has dished this out. Time to take some:

Best and Worst Daytime Wigs
Yeah, but in her case, wasn't she fighting terminal cancer at that point? So, while some seem unflattering, the wig wearing at least served a real purpose there.

Isn't Lamon Archey (Eli, Days) also on a prime time show? I know he was dropped to recurring because of scheduling. Maybe #2 is him?

F-u-c-k the GOP, Manchin, and Sinema. That is all.

This needs to be on Saturday mornings, where the cartoons used to air. This fits.

DAYS: Makeup room photo chart reveals contract cast for some point in 2022
Count me among those who think this is crap. Craig ADORED Nancy, weight or no weight. I am all for representation, so bring back Will/Sonny to the main show and build upon that. But to pull this just seems like Ron with another shiny toy, and Craig - and Nancy - will be destroyed in another wave of shallow campy bullshyt. Ron just cannot help himself.

Soap Actors Famous Relatives
Pluto TV used to run old episodes of Silk Stalkings, which Nancy Valens had guest-starred on a few times. The woman has barely aged in almost 30 freaking years!

Kelly and Eden fighting over Robert Barr on Santa Barbara. Although, it seemed more like Kelly was jealous of Eden/Robert than the sisters actually fighting...

And it will go nowhere because of Manchin and Sinema. They need to just bite the bullet and change to GOP. Yes, we'd lose the majority, but as it stands, nothing will ever get done as things currently stand, anyway.

The actress playing Jane is/was also named Jane, Jane Sibbett, who went on to play Carol Willick #2 (as Anita Barone played her when Carol announced her pregnancy!), Ross Geller's ex-wife, on Friends!

Apparently, the new Quinnipiac poll has Biden's approval at 33% - and just 25% for Independents. Wow. If there is an upside, it seems more on the right do NOT want Trump to run again than those that do. It is being said this is an outlier. But this is concerning.
