Yes. And I have always thought it was a crying shame. However, he went on to have a second career after P&G absurdly threw him away!!! Laurie Caso absolutely positively was forced to retire FROM P&G!!!! You really need to not say some of the outright absurd INACCURATE things that you say!!! It is true that he went on to have a second career, but you don't know what the hell you are talking about by saying he was not forced to retire. HE WAS. THINK.

At this point in time, people need to take some care when they say anything bad about Taby.

No, John Valente was at AW. I have no idea where Laibson was because he was the wild card. Here, below, is the way it happened: ATWT: Laurie Caso gone. John Valente in. GL: JFP gone. Michael Laibson in. AW: John Valente gone. JFP in. With the result being that Laurie Caso was forced to retire. As it truly was musical chairs & one person got left out in the cold. I'm not sure if I said it wrong before. I'm not sure if I'm answering your question.

Was anyone else simply floored when Sam dropped that on Carly's head, said about 3 sentences & then without saying good-bye, just walking out the door & leaving?!!!

In 1995 P&G did a full-tilt boogie exec musical chairs. GL to AW, AW to ATWT, ATWT to GL. It was literally bad for all shows! I know they did not intend it to be bad but it worked out that way. And, it also was the beginning of a large amount of EP/HW upheaval for a number of years for those 3 P&G NY soaps.

Okay. I'm confused as well. I do get your point, though, as to why not just say what happened instead of labeling behavior with one word. Have spoilers for next week been posted yet?

I must say that if threatening to break some fans fingers sounds banal to you, then, you definitely spend time in a worse climate than current day twiX which is FULL of overt racists, homophobic bigots & plain jane spiteful mean haters. There is one poster who has been blocked by at least 7 GH actors & Frank & Varni & the GH account itself & yesterday she got the attention of Eric Braeden by referring to 3 POC in the Y&R cast as "slaves" in a seriously worded post about how worthless they were & she clearly was talking about the actors. EB's reply to her was choice!!!

Possibly it was because he was quite literally in the custody of the FBI. If you recall, they took him, bodily, from Greece directly to a "room with no windows" at Quantico & Cates came in & said, "Hello, Mr. Morgan, I am John Cates & I have something I want you to listen to." And, that was the tape they had on Carly at the meeting of the 5 families, which some of us think Cyrus made the secret tape. So, how was he supposed to get away from them, to go to Port Charles & meet with Diane? But, if Diane gets involved now she's going to have just a huge list of items, starting with the fact, at least I think it's a fact, that none of this "deal" is on paper! Oh, yeah, Cates also said, right away, "These are RICO violations & each of them carries a 20-year Federal prison term." That's fairly important. Oh, yeah, also, today, I give you ... Trio!

And, I feel like Laura & KeMo are having the time of their lives!!! That is exactly what some of us think is going to happen. Carly is gonna get a copy of that tape & take it, do not pass go, directly to DIANE! And, Diane is exactly who we need added into this roue to make gumbo before you know it! And, of course, some of do see growth in Carly often, but most people do not acknowledge it, which is fine, who cares. NLG & Hennessey, together, this week, was amazing! Also, NLG with Kate Mansi, yes, lord yes, give us more.

I see that. I dunno. Mebbe next week it might interest you again. My hope is that it will do that for me.

Spin: That won't be an issue. I've found our prize. But now we have a new problem. It's an audio file & we can play it but we can't delete it or alter it. Sam: Well, let's just play it. Maybe hearing it will help us find a way to neutralize it. Spin: This explains so much. I would have sworn on my life that Jason would rather go to prison than turn informant but he was acting out of love to protect someone that's always been dear to him. (Sam has begun looking at Spinelli instead of the computer screen & she is looking at him as if he is an exotic bug.) Sam: He did it for Carly. That son of a bitch. Jason lied to me. He said he didn't have a choice but everything Jason did, leaving Port Charles, abandoning his kids, letting everyone think he was dead, it was all because of Carly because Cates had evidence against Carly? Because she was running Sonny's organization. Jason put Carly's welfare above everyone else, including his own children because of Carly. But of course because Carly always comes first with him. Spin: I'm sure this was a most difficult decision for him. Perhaps the hardest he's ever had to make. There is some nobility in sacrifice. Well to me the thing about Pikeman is that they were stalled. They had to take care of the wedding & of Greg dying & of Finn & they realized that they couldn't make May Sweeps so they knew they'd have to do it for July sweeps. (I know we forget July sweeps exists.) So, then, they had to stall Pikeman so they could make use of it, basically beginning next week. So, i have not judged Pikeman as lacking, just sorta On Hold.

GH 6-20-24 Carly: So Drew gets to live this great life while you're exiled to this warehouse & living in a room above a diner & Sonny is all over town telling everyone that you're a traitor, It's Not Fair! (They discuss Drew's relative happiness.) Carly: It's not about what Drew has. It's about what you don't. You lost 2 years of your life being forced to work for the FBI. TWO YEARS! We spent two years grieving you. And why? WHY? What was so important that it was worth losing all THAT TIME? Carly to Jason, GH, 6-20-24 Well, darling, you see, it was you, Carly, it was you that was worth it.

Snipping a shi*load of terribly interesting content just to say one thing, which I admittedly am bad at, that being fantasy casting but, here goes: Anna Stuart! As an "interesting" mother she was to Vicky & Marley & then she was again, to Greenlee of all people, so I figure she could do Liz in a New York minute.

Some fans think what people really want is Billy, which is an impossibility.

Now I have a much more thorough of an understanding of the ... what should I call it ... CarolineG & the dame that is & always will be: Brenda Barrett

Laura uses "Carly's World" in social media, primarily when she's being a cheerleader for the show.

So, Sam still does not know everything & what she does not know pertains. Carly didn't just think, hey, I think I'll take over Sonny's organization today. No, Jason was supposed to take that meeting but he was off with Britt & injured & Carly was forced to do it! Someone had to.

Okay. I did not realize that. I knew you really would like Brenda to be back, in the person of one VM. But, I didn't know anything really about your opinion of her in other roles. Like VEGAS, which I loved. Got it now. Brenda or Bust!

Hmm. I have no doubt that if MVJ had something special meant for her that she would very seriously consider answering that particular call! They seem to have a mutual appreciation thing going on!!! But, why the tiny bit of soul killing? I don't get it.

My surgeon, years ago, Dr. Henry Holleman, was the real life person the Henry Blake character was based on. I used to take him antique fishing lures at appointments. When the final episode aired on CBS I was in the hospital & he was sitting on the side of my bed, patting my hand. He drove a British convertible, no back seat, little boxy thing. Great surgeon, also a lot of fun.

I don't care anything at all about Sonny. I got over it. I don't know about that. So far, Gio is charming the pants off of anyone & everyone. And, today, when he & Trina smiled so sweet at each other, I swooned. Me, I am really into Trina being with someone she has something in common with. And, also not someone who begins their relationship with a lie & a fake-out & another girlfriend on the side. And, furthermore, the couple was always written for Spencer to be more important than Trina & I don't cotton to that either. I have no worries about G & T. My only area of concern is the Sprina STUCK fans who are not ready to move on. I guess we'll see.

YA THINK?!!! If it sits in the bottom of some closet, for like, 20 years, or something ridiculous like that, I believe it turns to vinegar. EWWWW. Great Scott! I think we are onto something!!!

So, you're saying, they deserve one another?!!! Funny. I like it. Today Sam was the most predictable person in the entire universe. Tomorrow she is taking her new found leverage directly to Carly & saying, now, here, you do what I said. If Carly does what I think she will, she will get a copy of that tape & head directly to Diane. We need Diane to insert herself into this action!!!

These are the three episodes that DAYS submitted to the WGA which won them the 2024 award. https://rumble.com/v52rlcl-days-of-our-lives-9-8-23.html Dick Van Dyke, Vivian https://rumble.com/v52rkq9-days-of-our-lives-9-7-23.html Victor's Memorial https://rumble.com/v52rkcz-days-of-our-lives-8-18-23.html Suzanne Rogers anniversary

I am also hopeless. Besides the fact that I keep coming back to GT!!! There is talk of a "new" kind of sexuality. "Demisexuality means being sexually attracted to someone only when you have an emotional bond with them." People have used it to explain, e.g., why a woman might be otherwise str8, but could still be emotionally & sexually attracted to a SPECIFIC woman. I think people have come up with this because of specific women who are with men all their lives but then they fall in love with one woman at one point in their lives & then no others.
