:lol: :lol: I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, JP... but I do think he CAN be VERY sexy. When he's allowed to smile and laugh and turn on the charm. Unfortunately in Guza-Land, that's against the law. Murder isn't... but charisma is.

IMO, Sonny is only ever charismatic around Brenda. He's showed glimpses with other people since, but Maurice and Vanessa work so well off one another. I'm not a couple fan, but in this case, Sonny and Brenda complete one another in some strange way. Claire Labine was one smart woman to see the chemistry between those two, when they shared short scenes in the beginning. I HATE Sonny and Brenda as separate characters, but together, they have a certain Je Ne Sais Pas.

Sonny been toxic with ever woman since, especially with Carly.

I wasnt being sarcastic, lol.

Mo is really sexy. Sonny? Not so much. Its odd, but you are right. Mo cant turn oin his charm and smile and laugh nad be his sexy self, he has to be dark asngry broody and pissy all the time on GH. When i met him i almost died. Srsly, him, Greg Vaughan, and Tyler are just... yumm!

I agree, except Brenda is love all her own :)

And i do think what caught on well at first for Sonny & Kate was he was able to smil, laugh, and flirt for the first time in YEARS. Then they ruined that first.

I've never met Tyler, but I couldn't agree more re: Greg. WOW. If they wrote Lucky to be a little closer to Greg, then they'd have no choice but to topple Jason Morgan off his pedestal (no offense to Steve), because Greg's got "it" oozing out of his pores. I don't know when "brooding" got to be what's hot, but I'm so over it. Give me somebody fun and flirty and interesting and has no clue how attractive they are, and I turn into a bumbling idiot.

But back to topic - Sonny USED to be fun. Hell, I nearly fell off my couch when I watched the "clink boom" montage again on YouTube a few months ago, and Sonny's with Luke, all giddy before Lily dies. I couldn't believe it. I forgot he had DIMPLES! If they could give us some of that, Sonny could stick around. But otherwise, I'm DONE.

Sonny has become a horrible character, while Maurice has been phoning it in for the last several years. I think MB needs to leave just so I can see him do something different and not groan everytime he is on my screen. I thought Kate was going to get Sonny out of the, shall we say, "Mob Mentality" but then we're back on "Betrayal by Betrayal of any other name is Betrayal" storyline, and I'm bored with that. Sonny has and will be "betrayed" by any woman he's with because that's the nature of soaps. Unfortunately, as soon as Sonny hooked up with Kate, I was like, "It's only a matter of time before 'Betrayal' works its way into this couple. Sonny either needs to grow up as a heterosexual man and realize that women sometimes act unfavorably for the right reasons, or he needs to realize his destiny is geared toward a homosexual relationship with Jason Morgan.

    • I wonder if less set use was preparing for the move. They probably were preparing for this for awhile now 
    • The early part of the season is decent. After that, Season 9 is probably one of the worst seasons until season 13. Season 10 is a little worse.    That would have made sense, even if it cost us one of my favorite scenes (Ben putting Lilliemae in a headlock). That's an excellent storyline and leads to the show's last strong season finale. 
    • The TVC Studio 31 that they used for 38 years was only about 13,730 sq ft., according to the TVC website specs: https://televisioncityla.com/stages-offices/ Sunset Las Palmas Studios has 11 sound stages, which go up to 20,000 sq ft., though we're yet to learn which of those sound stages will house B&B. Depending on which one, the specs for it can be found here: https://www.sunsetstudios.com/los-angeles/las-palmas-studios/ Sound Stages 4, 5 and 9 are available for use starting September 1, 2025. It's unclear if either of those stages would be used by B&B since they begin production there starting Tuesday, August 19, 2025, which would be before the date shown on the website, but we shall see. Of those three sound stages, only Sound Stage 4 and 5 make sense since they are larger than the specs the show had at TVC, while 9 is quite smaller.  Sound Stage 4 would be the best option overall for B&B since it has 18,819 sq ft., the largest individual sound stage at the lot - Stage 3 and Stage 8 share space, which combined makes the space 19,900 sq ft. --- Forgot to add, unless there was an issue with storing the sets, the changes at TVC should have had no issue with production on the show, resulting in fewer set use as there has been no movement in terms of construction that would impact either show (B&B/Y&R). Of the 2-3 times I've been at the studio, the most recent for Don Diamont's 40 years at CBS, it was the most dead I had ever seen the space, but that could be due to vacations, holidays, or the preparation of the B&B move.
    • I didn't post about it in the BtG thread as I still don't watch the show (an hour runtime is just too much for me right now with a new soap I can't just mostly skip through) but I can't imagine the ego of someone who is hired as a breakdown writer and decides to [!@#$%^&*] their own name all over the show. Classless beyond belief. Any writer who cares more about masturbatory behavior than quality of work should not be hired.
    • Yeah, it would've made things more tightly woven.
    • I like Chelsea and Madison. Two very pretty black women as a potential couple. But I really wish this show would've showcased two very handsome black men as a couple instead.
    • I didn't even think of roasters from GH

      Maybe this roast will take even more than two years
    • Irna wasn't involved with ATWT at the time of Neil's death, was she? I'm imagining a situation where right after his latest doctor's appointment, he's killed.
    • The Cruise of Deception was the first thing that came to mind when I mentioned that Brady might take after that side of the family 
    • We all knew that TT is busy so if she's off screen for a bit except for phone calls and/or visits.. then it is what is. Ashley was nicely used as support... which the writers should have been doing since day 1 so that viewers could understand why exactly she's on the show LOL Chelsea/Madison.... seems too good to be true... we shall see. Shanice as a PT... if it means more airtime.. I'm good.
