Contessa Donatella

First fan version of a new opening:

Personally I am quite perplexed at the resistance to Kristina being overly defensive about her father, of her being deeply in denial & of her steadfast belief in what she sees as Sonny's code, different from other people's codes, but his own & where he would not kill or even harm an innocent, or anyone who was not a direct threat to either him or his family or his business interests. Clearly delusional but the kind of delusion real life people live with if they are the wives, mothers & daughters of mobsters. However my real interest in what you've said is, okay, how else could they have gotten to this dramatic point in this story? Thanks! I believe we've got a theme going on here. Drew is better Scruffy than perfectionally (not a word!) plastic Ken doll. Now, bruised & bloodied Dex is hot!

I feel like I've stumbled onto one of those extra feeds that Big Brother fans used to watch. Only this is the #DAYSAllLeoAllTheTime alternate feed! Where oh where is my ordinary DAYS?!! I have no pity for Sloan. I am not at all curious about what is to befall her. I don't blame the actress. In fact, I think she's doing a good job & is better than she was, say, a year ago. I'm just not very interested, I guess. The only thing that makes me thing Captain Ron is at the helm is the upped Leo factor! I just don't exactly understand what Chad is after. A better reason for Abby to be dead?!! That sucker punch really landed, hard! I think I heard it. THUNK. Wait. Who assaulted whom? I don't understand Stephanie. Still! Or maybe Again! Why is she with BobEverett? I will say, though, that the actor, Blake, is doing a good job with the material.

The audio, yes, that is a whole nother matter!! 🙃🤣 So funny!

It's a very loud, very deranged minority position. And, the new photos have "inspired" a new graphical bashing of LW. Bless her heart. She just shrugs it off & keeps going. I hate it for her. I feel sure he is not going to wake up. The previews say that someone supports Tracy. So I figure she takes it hard.

Today GH released new key art, a new banner & individual cast photos. In the group shots, & the banner photo for the background it shows panels where each is a scene from the show. It reminded me SO of the ATWT opening globe where there were 1000s of scenes from the show. Such a good background & such a good good memory.

I confess for a moment I was terrified that Carly was going to say ILY to Sonny & Jason was gonna have to hear it. I should have had more faith in PM/EK!!! Face it. When push comes to shove, Carly does the humane thing to do, whether it's Ava when she was amost killed or Sonny after he almost killed Dex. Jason called her for a reason. The most important thing is that Jason stayed right there & Carly did not give of herself. Their positioning of Kristina is now shown to have been dramatic perfection. 10 out of 10. And, of course Kate is hitting it all squarely out of the ballpark!!!

I know that when they hired Chris back they were under the impression that Dan was going to sue the show so because of that there was no chance in hell of them making a similar offer to Dan. I have zero idea if he actually did file a lawsuit.

Well, it is Sweeps & it was a well done death montage. I have nothing going on in real caring about Gregory but I can appreciate a well done dramatic production number.

Forget BTS for a moment. Think about how Sonny treated Carly, Michael, ... At the time he was lying & recently he lied again about what happened to his marriage to Carly. Yes, he got his memory back but he behaved as a liar & a cheat.

Yabbut this spiral really began with Nixon Falls.

Well, clearly they wanted to recreate a precocious child like young Robin & young Emma & they totally screwed up!!!

Yes, I saw his name. The photoshoot was in March. OMG! Talk about not reading the room! https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/abc/general-hospital-violet-finn-jophielle-love-173255

@Aragorn Sasha is definitely there. Interesting that Dom is in new Key Art but not an individual picture.

Leo, no danger Violet, geeze is hope alive? Comet, Prolly stuck with the horse Why is Finn here? Possibly just timing. Terri, Yuri, Amy, ....

I am FOR this! I couldn't be more FOR anything if I tried. And, also, Soap Jesus, do not let Frank KEEP Hayden around. That is NOT the idea.

What I keep hearing, ARGH, is that Finn & Liz are gonna do a quickie wedding & then he is gonna head out for inpatient rehab & Violet will join Liz's mob. I hope this is just fans talking out their pieholes!!!! I do not want this to be so. (I did not put this inside spoiler space cuz I don't think it is.)

Okay, but you were not wrong. Long before there was any ChaLynn romance, Amanda Setton was living by a modesty code that comes from her being an observant Orthodox Jew. So you most likely heard about the religious aspect long before they gave that interview which talks about things in a different way. I'm sure we all recall that her clothes were different from way back. I'm just sayin' is all.

And, good luck, I just got Aiden 1 & Aiden 2 & Rocco confused. AGAIN!!! I am apparently helpless when it comes to how much these 3 boys look alike. And, no, only one of the Aidens is included.

Thnks so very much! Now I can add this to my slam vocabulary!!!

I'm not sure this qualifies as spoiler material. But, we'll just see. All it is, is that the new cast photos are finally UP!! On the usual site, ABC press, Gallery, dated 5-20-24. Included Blaze, Natalia, Brennan, Cates of course, Lois, many but not all of the kids, ... James, Donna, Jake, an Aiden, Danny, ... Here's just a few, sampling, all posed similarly. Now, where the heck should I have posted this news?

Thanks, Jane, this is good to know. This means it is likely so, when she says they are "official". I will be paying attention to her Fri. afternoon posts from now on. She gets them really seemingly FAST. I am interested in these inserts. I wonder what & why they are doing this sorta often. So, if I catch your drift, you're thinking A is for Added.

What does it mean in this context "to dip"? I am not familiar with this, what I assume to be, a great slap & I think I might need to use it!!!

Amanda was living by a modesty code long before they paired her with JS. And it did have a religious basis. Great segue. A woman would be a good idea. I'd personally like Wendy Riche but could also get up a head of steam for Shelley Curtis. I don't know the people you mention. Is experience with PP an asset? Do you recall that Shannon Peace had gone quiet & people hoped someone had made her see the error in what she was doing if she wants to work in this town again? Apparently not. She's posting again.

I LOVE your take on this!!! Good point bringing Belle into it.
