  1. You misunderstand if you think people's constructive criticism of Ron somehow equates to their liking Dena Higley. She's thankfully the past so does not pertain the way Ron does because we're hoping the show will see the light & give Ron his walking papers. Being excited that Sheri was at the show during the strike goes hand in hand with hoping for a new HW. And I can only speak for myself but I don't hate Ron. I wish him well, elsewhere.
  2. If you're going to make inane comments at least get the spelling right. Procter
  3. Can’t forget the biphobia and the misogyny either Yes! And, what he did with Challie is criminal. Perfectly good potential girl/girl couple that could have had a grand romance for a good 3-4 years & what did he do? Put them on one day per week, if that, and wrote them more as male fantasy objects than as women-loving young adults! He was breaking them up the week of their 6-month anniversary.
  4. Yeah, I recall that they said the Korean War too. It was completely weird. I don't know this. LOL! Help me out. Of course, when she tries to do Hattie, she's awful.
  5. Pacing, use of personnel, persisting with characters that are not popular, odd sense of humor, poor taste, possibly burned out comparing years before & the past 2 years, his real love is GH, no passion for DAYS, extreme favoritism, part of the mechanism that enabled the monster, ... I can go on.
  6. Hank Northrup, an actor, son of Lynn & Wayne, is hired to play a clone of Roman.
  7. Well, we do this often enough as well as those of us trying to get Gina Tognoni on cast as Sami or Billie or someone. And, so many of us want Sydney. But to your list I would definitely keep Patch & Kayla, Tripp & Wendy, EJ, Brady, Maggie & Chad. So, I would agree to cut Steph, Ava, Harris, Rafe, Sarah, Xander, Roman & Alex. My cut list would begin with Leo & I approve of the recent loss of Dimitri, Theresa would be gone, Gwen would not return, Stefan & Everett outta there! Both Kristen & Susan Banks would rotate in & out, short arcs. And, if they had some dynamite writing for Xander as the true heir, then he could stay. No question that Constantin would get the boot.
  8. Yeah, he just returned earlier this year. Your memory is sound! @Errol Can you enlighten us any about his return?
  9. I liked Ava & Jake together for that brief time before they offed him. And, actually I really liked Jake & that has not been the case with Stefan. He was okay with Gabi but nothing special, although the writing they had was pretty darned pitiful. Speaking of her, Happy Birthday, Christie Clark!

  12. Okay not yesterday but the day before. Monday first day with no writers listed in credits according to Toups, see below.
  13. As a gay woman with innumerable gay men friends over many years, I can honestly say that Leo Stark is the worst representation of a gay man that I have ever seen. He is not like anyone I have ever known. And from a fan perspective, it is common for people to remark on how bad he is for the soap that's supposed to be the diversity soap! I'm not saying you're not entitled to your opinion, cause everyone gets to have their own opinion.
  14. I just saw this & literally screamed NOOO at the screen. Damn.
  15. No, it is exactly that, from GoldDerby & worded that way. Unlike most posts which refer to a Michael Fairman link, etc. It was "different". So, it is not as reliable. Sorry if I duplicated on Creech. I was going by your statement that she had not mentioned her reel in her SOD interview. Just trying to flesh out what is so close to perfection.
  16. OMG you'll destroy my reputation! 🙉🙈🙊

  18. @janea4old I think you were missing this one. Here’s what Cassandra Creech said is on her reel…. “It was “a lot of the interpersonal relationships with my daughter, with Diamond [White], with Paris, and then certainly that dynamic with Carter [Lawrence Saint-Victor], and Paris, and just the humanity of that conflict as a mother, as a loving mother. And confronting a man. There were quite a bit of those scenes on the reel. There was, of course, the slap. And those are most of the scenes. Yeah, pretty much most of the scenes, just those intimate conversations with my daughter.” and this one. Henry Joseph Simari picked the episodes where Douglas told Thomas that the knew he set up Brooke; Douglas tells Steffy that Thomas made the recording, not Brooke; Douglas plays the recording at Ridge & Taylor's wedding.
  19. Well, of course you did! ... Once I pointed it out to you. I can be your wingman.
  20. Today is just a good day for typos! Meanwhile a Canadian attorney who hasn't been watching but watched today because she knew Steve was going to have a scene with Jada about Marcus has pulled out what the flashback the show needed, could have been! If she could find it, why couldn't the show? https://twitter.com/i/status/1734606866989326469 An intentional non sequitur? Look at the movie CAROL & tell me those straight women do not show their characters being in love?
  21. Sam & Krissy good talk. BLQ & Maxie good talk. Lucy confessing to Maxie interesting talk but I have a bad feeling about Lucy giving sway to her weakness for Scott. Scott & Liesl, thank god she stuck to her guns. And so good to see her! Ned & Tracy, hooray, rapprochement & reconciliation! Tracy & BLQ, if she can get Maxie to get a salary again! Now why didn't Krissy tell Sam she has a girlfriend?!!!
