BTG: March 2025 Discussion Thread
No one. Just like "which one of these things does not fit with the other?" To the thread. To anyone being too serious about a character that can function 100% successfully who is used to express heightened drama & camp. 2 extremes: golf club attack on property & woman weeping in an elevator.

Mulcahey was talking about not having those credits show on IMDb & wikipedia, NOT missing from the show or the union, etc. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

BTG: March 2025 Discussion Thread
You know I brought up just that story, based on truth, weeks ago. One thing I feel I have to say, a woman crying in an elevator?!!! Really? This to you spells insanity?!! if that's the way you think, then I shudder to think how you are with an ordinary person who is grieving. I know I would not look to you for any kind of empathy.

I could wish Allie were here because if she were at least the two of them would talk it over & maybe sharing their reactions & feelings would lead somewhere, but then, if I'm true to her I'd want Nicole to be there for Allie to talk to. Neither of them is there & neither is Sami. If they're smart they'll write a way for Johnny to talk to - who else - Marlena next week!

Texas! Discussion Thread
Patrick Mulcahey told me that they hired the writing team for TEXAS & then had nothing for them to write so they put them to work writing AW. Being in the same studio & all. This is work they have not been credited with, at least not online. But, I personally find it hard to believe they were writing a Southern story & they didn't have Iris in mind. As a matter of fact my impression is that they decided on Iris long before there were any talks with Beverlee. That is why she was in such a good negotiation place & why she got so much money & the star billing. Maybe the book will tell us what really happened.

But, y'all a drunk scene like this is just classic! To write, it, to direct it, to act it! Act 2, Scene 2, Fallen Angels, Noel Coward! And a lot more! Actresses are lucky if they get to do this once in a career. Finally! Someone else is mentioning the sex on BTG!! I've been saying they not only have sex but they also talk about it!!!

I haven't seen this yet. I'll see it tonight. But, really, Johnny has not been presented as some very mature, highly evolved, insightful person!!! If his reaction were to spout off a feminist philosophical tirade of outrage on behalf of Sami, it would flat out be out of character! Johnny's just a typical young adult. Let's give him a chance to live with this for a bit, at a minimum.

Well, I don't happen to subscribe to the idea that everything that GH Carly does is somehow blessed or deemed to be right, so that's a starting point. And, I def do not believe Dani is being presented as correct, or right. However, what she is, to me, anyway, is thoroughly motivated. I mean, they have spent so much time giving us insight into what she thinks & feels & why, right? We're not left wondering. Y&R, Phyllis, at this point in time I do not do Bell soaps, so I have no opinion.

GH: March 2025 Discussion Thread
Charlotte's PahPah is roughly the equivalent of Violet singing to me. And her relationship with Valentin is decidedly bent. We know, of course, that her relationship with Victor was bent, too. And, of course the writing's on the wall that Valentin is about to be around again, I am sure. I can't imagine how they are going to allow Anna to forgive him but I just guess that these plot-plot-plot opportunistic writers will find a way so we may get to have a happy Anna again!! @TaoboiI am looking at a notation in my calendar that you might find of interest: March 15, 2024, Day 1, Patrick Mulcahey & Elizabeth Korte. 🎼🎵🎶🎹 What a difference a year makes?

I disagree. I think McTavish's best at AMC was the crossover. At first I admit I hated that they were holding me hostage. It was impossible to follow without watching both AMC & OLTL. And, frankly, it went on forever. But, it was worth it. I mean, what can you say, when you've got two very pregnant women, a helicopter, a crash in the woods, two babies are born but only one lives ... and so on. Bianca & Babe were both on their A-game. Paul Cramer was okay. No idea what Malone & Griffith were doing, but McT was solid.
