You meet all the hot boys. I am forever jealous of you.

I knew I forgot one. I met Wally Kurth at a Kurth and Taylor concert. Got his autograph. He flirted with my sister, who was with her partner. So he had no chance with her, but I still wanted to party with them which she declined. She sucks too. It was the same week that Alexis called off her wedding with Ned

A once close friend had an ongoing male/male thing with an ABC actor for a while in the late 80's. I've met him on several occasions but won't say his name. He clued me in on a few other gay soap actors.

I met the late Lynn Thigpen at a large wedding, one of my BF's cousins. Nice lady.

Another very close friend used to babysit Jennifer Finnigan. She's was such a nice girl and is apparently just as nice as an adult.

Met Steve Schnetzer and his wife Nancy Snyder several times, they even came to my mother's cottage. They share mutual friends with my mother and aunt. Again, nice people but when I started to ask him questions about AW, he put his hand on my shoulder and said something like "Trust me, you don't want to know" He has a highly infectious laugh and one of he sexiest voices I've ever heard. I was about 16 when I met him the first time and it was love at first sight; then they introduced me to his wife and I was so disappointed.

Actually it was Lauren's stepson. I met him when I lived out in West Hollywood. ;)

When we were hanging out at his place, I noticed a picture of him and her. I was like "Oh wow, you met Lauren, you must be a Days fan too!", to which he replied "Sort of, thats my stepmother."

I met a lot of the then-GL stars (most of them aren't with the show anymore and neither am I, lol) several years ago when I went to the fan gathering, softball game and the bowling...but my favorites were David Andrew Macdonald, Beth Ehlers and Jerry verDorn. And I liked Justin Klosky (Joey Lupo) because he was a fellow Neil Diamond fan. :P

In the early 90s I saw James Horan on the streets of NYC. I've seen Dennis Parlato and Joseph Barbara in plays but I didn't go meet them.

    • After watching the performances tonight I can't understand why Finland and Malta are seen as some of the favourites. Finland's song is not one of the best this year and I maintain that Miriana Conte who represents Malta is a poor singer. My guess is that it's because of the controversial nature of both these songs. I'm not all that impressed with Austria either. But France on the other hand emerged as a big contender tonight. A beautiful song, a wonderful singer and fantastic staging. Greece also had a spectacular stage show which definitely enhanced their chances. I guess it's part nostalgia factor but I really want Luxembourg to go through to the final as well. I love the homage to France Gall and Laura Thorn sold the song very well. Much better than in the clip from the national final.
    • The older Ted was more unlikeable. The character came across warmer and mo sympathetic today whereas the older one portrayed him with a dark side. Thats why I said his scenes with Leslie will tell alot bc thats where he comes across the most like a villain and had me feeling bad for her at times
    • I completely agree @Soaplovers with your excellent comment.  And the bold, confident Stephanie we saw in her previous incarnations would be a much better match for Alex than the one trying to play house too soon. Let’s not forget: Alex came on the scene as a walking red flag with a gym membership—dodging commitment in love and work. And now he’s out here giving career advice? From a man whose last job was playing a soap star no one in Salem has even heard of? Sir. What I’d love is for Stephanie to be a genuine challenge for him—not someone who bends to his charm, but someone who knows she’s the prize. She’s a free agent in Salem: no ex-husband drama, no kid in tow, no awkward family entanglements. Let her be more like Kayla now—centered, respected, and not here for games—than Kayla was when she was falling off motorcycles with Steve. The next great Salem love story shouldn't be about chemistry alone. It should be earned—like Patch and Kayla, Shane and Kim, or even Bo and Hope on their best days. Give us slow burn, mutual respect, and a Stephanie who makes him level up.
    • It's looking like I may be in the minority, but nuTed is a major improvement to me. I agree, it will take a few days to get used to the higher pitched voice and smaller stature, but his acting is so much better. I can feel the emotions in his voice and face and it just feels more real and natural.  Kat was great today too, giving us the tears and her softer side. Loved Leslie/Bill - we need more of this!  Did y'all notice Leslie's snake necklace?? So creepy, but fitting for her haha. Tomorrow should be an updated intro with Keith, unless they repeat the second one for days until they get it updated.
    • Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ✌

    • It was all about Gio today, boys

      He was really sweet and dorky though, and I enjoyed the violin lol. And he looked good too  I'm speculating that the big reveal will happen at Gio's birthday party. It's definitely time. But yeah, he really should've gotten advice and encouragement from someone, from anyone other than Sonny though. And while I understand where Dante is coming from, he was a little annoying today again. They really needed to establish this tension and anger a lot sooner than now, or not do it at all. Plus, this had already been done with Mac/Cody, Nina/Willow, etc., and honestly, it doesn't seem necessary here.  As for Lucky and Liz, as much as I like angsty couples, I'm still concerned about what Frank may (or may try to) do with them. The biggest reason why Lucky is like a 'cowboy' is because this friggin guy spent the better part of a decade basically erasing him from existence.
    • True, lol. IIRC, Rita Moreno said in an interview that part of the problem was that Susan Harris was ill during the week they taped that episode and therefore was unable to make needed script changes.  I wonder what might have happened had they been able to delay the taping until she felt well enough to work more on the script.  I feel like "Nest" might've sold with Moreno and Paul Dooley (although the patient with DID would've needed to be eighty-sixed regardless, lol).
    • What is the most recent episode in which Maurice Johnson's Ted wore a turtleneck?
    • They had a Liam/Hope montage today supposedly about all their times together but it was only Annika's Hope and no scenes from Kim Matula's Hope.  I realize they probably didn't want to restage those scenes with Annika. But still it was weird to omit the Italian wedding.  They could have thrown in a Puglia scenery pic without the actors.
    • I haven't watched today's episode yet, but maybe that was the point. Maybe they're trying to move Ted in a more unlikable/villain direction and it wouldn't work with the previous actor. Or maybe it's just that transition phase which will take some getting used to.
