Contessa Donatella

They tape according to what set is up, etc. Like we just saw Nina with a bun in blue & in red. Those were taped the same day. Their continuity people are exceedingly important! Easily they tape from 3 separate episodes in one tape day. I've begun hoping that with the new writing beginning, maybe we'll get longer scenes. Anyway, I hope so.

Is it just me or is it really obvious that they are setting Drew up for a major fall? At least Cam has another gig. I mean, in case it comes to that. Carly & Drew fighting is really something new. Plus, imagine Cyrus wearing a wire.

I looked & I don't see this. https://www.tvinsider.com/1123662/eva-larue-joins-general-hospital-natalia-rogers-ramirez-blaze-sonny/

There have been times when I've been able to forgive, at least in theory, because I can never forget.

AFAIK her podcast is still on all available platforms. However, this is not the first time that Spotify has been up to date & other platforms have not. Yes, Spotify has a free option. I use it free & I don't feel like I'm missing anything. And, you know better than that. Any real sincere question is a valid question! The only time there's a stupid question is when someone is playing games & none of us do that here. I wish that Instagram had not changed it so you have to have an acct to see what is there. I have an IG acct, it's not that. There are just fewer places where one can just be a guest.

@Toups Now you tell us!!! (J/K) 👏👊👌😁

Well, this is a step to the right, also, but last week I had a Sprina Nation poster explain to me why some of them were furious after Spencer's memorial service & it was a real eye-opener for me. This is GH. So, they began by setting the scene at the gravesite. 1. All of the white people were on the left side & all of the black people were on the right side. (No, I had not even noticed that but they were correct.) 2. The only people who crossed from the left to the right, to comfort Spencer's true love Trina were Ava, who is like a second mother to her, and Joss & Cameron, who are young white adults who are best friends with Trina & Spencer. No other white people said anything to her which means none of his blood kin did. And, then they didn't want to talk anymore. And, I was like ... WHOA. And, Trina is an incredibly dark amazingly gorgeous young woman. Spencer is white.

But, if they were writing vindictively that implies that they knew what was coming, that they knew they were about to get canned.

What specifically? And, Frank is safe.

GH & AMC both also benefited from some DAYS fans who left & didn't look back because of Demonic Possession 1.0.

That's right! I had completely forgotten about that. She is one of those Salemites that simply vanished. Characters who masqueraded as loose, dropped threads ...

And, also we had a real flashback that included Jensen Ackles in it as Eric, which we never would have had on NBC because they wouldn't pay for them.

Me either! Many long years ago I made a foray onto Datalounge & one of the things there was about her & was just crazy. And, now, this, here. Who knew Suzanne Rogers could inspire such utter lunacy?!!!

I suppose it is only one of a number of anachronisms that exist in soaps. Sometimes I think we should compile a list of the bonehead things that NBC pushed on their soaps. It would range from something as insignificant as this to something as huge as insisting on AW that Jake must rape Marley.

For a long while I was reluctant to use Ignore. Not a problem anymore. Finding it very effective.

7 more days of D&C and that has been tweaked. It seems to me that we are in the process of witnessing a classic soap shake-up & it couldn't happen to a nicer soap! IOW, a soap that needs it so badly but also is not so far gone that it is beyond helping! This leaves me trying to maintain a position of "guarded optimism" while inside I am jumping up & down. Yesterday, I didn't get to watch till today. I thought the scene between Miz Wu & Sonny was very effective. Interesting exchange of information & adds another side to the "Org Crime Serial Killer Gang" storyline. Also I found it very interesting that Curtis withheld what little information he has from Jordan & I didn't get why he did that. Literally the mention of Morgan got half of Twitter wondering about if Morgan is about to be back on the canvas. (He's not.) And the other half showing soap fan humor. Posts querying who will play the new Morgan? Most popular reply a huge image of Michael Easton. 2nd most popular reply same but Howarth. And they say soap fans have no humor! I did not at all like the way Sonny treated Dante. Are we seeing a new more unpleasant Sonny? Or is it just Sonny from the past back in extremis? This repeating refrain that he is isolating himself, maybe that is really coming true. Nina was hilarious trying to take on Diane. I don't even like Diane & I was cheering her on. And, also, STFU Lucy! She is not even trying. Snarking her way from one day to the next. I'm interested in Spinelli & Maxie. Didn't know I would be. I have heard of one actor being taken off contract. And my thought about that is that it's a start. Now, how about a dozen more?

So very sad.

There's much in books about Tommy & the Korean War. They wanted it to be, naturally, the Vietnam War but NBC just insisted that they could not even mention it & suggested the Korean War instead which was absurd & did not fit at all with the timeline but the show was stuck with it.

I thought LA did a good job as Allie too, but I wouldn't mind if they recast. She was a good actress, but I always thought she was a little too low key for Sami's daughter. I think the show could find someone more dynamic for the part although I do mostly blame the writing for Allie. All Sami's children are so nice and boring. Sydney's our last hope. I honestly would probably age Sydney into Tate/Holly's group before I'd bring Allie back. As I've said before, Ron had a really good opportunity with Challie. But, he wasted it both by not showing them timely & consistently & with some really poor writing. Allie seemed to get the brunt of the bad writing. So, yes, it's fair to say that Ron had it in for her. Initially Allie had more spirit & then they watered her down, so she began as a good inheritor of her mother's spirit & fire but ended up not nearly so. I have long wished to have a teen Sydney on the show.

@te. So, just to update you. This morning I filed a report with JustWatch letting them know they've linked to some other totally different, wrong show also named TITANS. Thanks for your heads up!

Oh, so is it another TITANS? It's the right one on JustWatch so is it a mix-up on their part, too? Because they are linking to it & leading one to believe it's Aaron Spelling coming up with Yasmine on front row smiling up at me. LOL
