Wow, I have to disagree.

I really don't think ANYTHING in the '80s was sexy.

I mean, the big hair? The high-tops tennis shoes? The day glow and bandanas freaky jeans and flourescent [!@#$%^&*]? EWWWWW... yeah, nothing sexy about that.

Frankly, I feel for the people of the '80s. they had it BAD. :(

Are you watching the movie now?

What part are you on? What do you think so far?

Anyway, I wasn't really referring to the 80's fashion sense as "sexy." I was referring to Dan Gauthier in general -- that is, his physicality, his face, his body. He was stunning.

Well, daysfan. I was there, albeit briefly (I'm 24) ... But those six years of my life were HELL.

Nothing was sexy! Nothing attractive!! All of it -- the shoulder pads, the big hair (men and women), the mohawks, the "business in the front, party in the back," fishnet stockings, FLOURESCENT COLORS -- was all wacky, tacky, unsexy, and crappy!!! :(

    • -- Weirdest red carpet ever at the Nurses' Ball. Every conversation was filled with snark and shade or outright insults, and we even got an on-camera arrest of Tracy -- while Congressman Drew (who's never in DC) stood there. I guess it was more interesting than the usual. -- Why did Gio walk the carpet with Joss? -- Sonny is usually escaping mobsters who want to kill him. So of course he accompanies his granddaughter on the carpet. On camera.
    • I agree with all of this.

    • I'm not Jason but O'Connor was not listed in Monday's episode with the BDWs.
    • As much as I love the Nurses Ball, the campiness of it all always comes off as strange and a little cringey, because GH isn't often like that. But whatevs, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. The surprise with Kai was kinda sweet. I wish they had spent more time on that, and given us more of Trina's POV, instead of rushing through it and talking more about his surgery.  But yeah, poor Gio. He really should've escorted Emma instead of Joss

       I'm looking forward to seeing him perform though  And, poor Tracy too. She will never be the bad guy in this whole situation with Sonny, Drew, etc., no matter how Chris and Elizabeth (or Frank) choose to write it. Btw, since this is the Nurses Ball, where the hell is Nurse Liz?

    • Considering that a soap opera hasn't been launched in over 25 years, I think the show is doing well. In 2025, you're not going to get a soap opera on the level of soaps you watched before the 1990s for a variety of reasons. - All scenes are filmed out of order.  No longer do shows do the live to tape process. - No longer are there rehearsals before filming the episodes. - Most of the greats retired/passed away without teaching a lot of the new generation how to produce or write a soap opera in the pre 2000 way. Also, this isn't filmed where soap operas were filmed so the show is using local talent that is hitting it out of the park.  It reminds me of the CBN soap Another life that used local talent in the Virginia beach area. Lastly, soaps take several months to get going.. and I think the show is in good shape after 56 episodes (at least compared to other soaps that started in the late 80s and 90s like Generations, SunSet Beach, Passions, etc)
    • Cool, thank you for the perspective - helps me appreciate the story more. Totally makes sense - we know BB was so frustrated with the state of the show after its first 6 months that he was ready to cancel it.
    • I couldn't agree more. It's all subjective.
    • It should be better for a show airing in 2025. But that's just my take.
