For me, it is not Gooddard, who has his eye-candy appeal, and his occassional good acting moments. However, his mere presence is an insult, since the show's history had to be raped for him to exist now. If he turned out to be some kind of con, like the early indications were months and months and months ago, I think it would be better. Plus, the writing for him is just bad. I love Cane vs Billy, but the writers have to make him more sympathetic, and DG has to step up his game.

At this point I don't care that Cane is Jill's son they have reversed the most important part of the mistake which is Jill /Katherine's maternity. I don't know what the purpose of Cane is and I don't necessarily mind DG I think he has a role that is challenge. The Character's profile/background is all over the place I don't buy that he went from bartending to successful CEO of a major congomerate first off that needs to be fixed, this whole "I was tricked by my borther's babymother for months into thinking niece is mine so now that I know she isn't I should have her" isn't working either. This charcter needs work, and I can't say it's anything with DG himself because the charcter doesn't necessarily have a consistent identity

This is how I see Amber with Kevin too as if Kevin were a child again and needing someone to look after him which is why she wouldn't leave him.

I thought she seemed like a natural myself, not nervous; I certainly didn't think she was as bad as she thought herself to be. I never did much like Billy and Mac before so I'm hoping I'll like this Mac.

Gotta admit, I loved Chloe slamming the door on big mouth Colleen. If I didn't have to watch Sursok, I would've recorded it just so I could re-watch the scene over and over.

Sorry but I want my hateable people to be like Sharon, completely and totally unrootable, but played by a talented enough actor that I can enjoy their scenes and really enjoy hating them. Cane I just want gone and his side kick too. I don't know what so many were seeing in her acting lately, but in Today's US show she was right back to being her usual valley girl, full of herself, butter wouldn't melt in her saintly mouth bitch. Yes I enjoy the insults towards them, but not because I enjoy them at all and never will. But they unfortunately are the "moral center" of this show and we are just stuck with this cross to bare.

I adore Chloe. "Ignore the hot air from the outback." Congrats on the non-engagement.

Mac. Whatever. No one comes close to Chloe. I hope they find a love interest for Chloe.

Brock and Katherine = Love.

Katherine and Murphy dancing was so sweet.

B&B doesn't want to give her up, which is stupid, since she's contributing abolutely nothing to that show. I don't understand what's going on with the Bell's in that respect, Heather is worth more to them on Y&R than she'll ever be to them at B&B.

But anyway, Gina would rock the hell out of playing Victoria, I can see her as Victor Newman's daughter, Amelia on the other hand, um hell no.

    • Hey, I'm wondering if anyone has cross-referenced Spauldingfield's undated episodes with the German playlists? An angel has been uploading to the Soap Vault and it would be great to be able to date all those episodes. I have access to rename them, if anyone has a list.

    • It’s sad that all these fabulous soap writers who truly understand the craft are dead/going to die soon. I wonder if there will ever be a resurgence of writers who can carry on their legacy one day.

    • It's almost comical that it's okay and it's appropriate for you of all people to post Drake/John clips. Do you have no remorse at all?
    • 1991 included a segment "They Started On Soaps". 1991 included a Lifetime Achievement Emmy to P&G 1997 included a tribute to Irna Phillips. 1997 included a tribute to GL & its 60th anniversary.

    • BTG is fire!!! It has definitely found it's footing and has exceeded my expectations.  Wednesday's episode and the scene with Dani & Chelsea was everything. I wish my 13yo self could have seen a scene like that.  Dana/Leslie is absolutely nuts, but I love her. TMG, is just amazing, as is AM. All of the cast is improving and settling in.  I can't wait to see how all the stories play out.

    • GH 1976 Pt 5 Cam portrays the betrayed-and-long-suffering husband magnificently, telling Diana that emotional infidelity is as bad as the other kind. He then broodingly tells Diana that if he’s found gone over the balcony of the penthouse, it won’t have been suicide—Leslie will have pushed him. Or, more likely, she would find a less obvious method. But he can handle both their problems, he assures Diana. He reaches for the phone and in moments arranges for a plum job offer for Peter as a psychiatric consultant at one of Cam’s West Coast companies, with a lucrative salary to go with it. When Diana assures him that Peter won’t accept the position, Cam insists that it’s up to Diana to see that he does, for the sake of her marriage. After a harrowing night with their patient, whose suicide attempt followed the loss of a baby, Leslie breaks down from both her patient’s agony and her own. But, as she tells Peter, she has to see Cam and end it now. She confronts him in the apartment and tells him that his actions were designed to take Laura from her and his complete disregard for her feelings have ended their marriage. Cam insists that he found Waverly out of love for her, which she doubts. But he  manages to convince her that he’ll sleep in the den, |so she won’t have to move to a hotel. He hopes this minor concession will give him time to make her realize what she’s about to give up. But in the morning he sees that she’s still adamant as she tells him things have to be his way or no way. Ironically, this is the day Men and Women Magazine hits the stands with their cover feature story “A Unique Medical Team,” with Leslie and Peter on the cover. Diana, badly upset at Peter’s overwhelming concentration on Leslie’s problems, commiserates with Cam, who points out that the article “makes them sound like they’re married!”  To Terri’s relief, Jeff is finally able to overcome his resentment of his brother and makes up with Rick. He reminds Rick that it is he, Jeff, who is the winner he has Monica, and she loves him. With Rick back on surgical service, Monica decides to specialize in surgery. Jeff is hurt when he learns that Steve has approved her transfer to surgical service, as he feels that Rick’s surgical success magnifies his own failure as a surgical candidate. To compensate, Jeff deliberately fondles Monica whenever Rick is around, as if to remind him that he won in the long run. But Rick can only suppress so much, and when Monica loses a young patient and cries in his arms, Rick kisses her with great passion and confesses he never stopped loving her and wanting her. Monica, in turn, explains that she fell in love with Jeff only out of her grief over Rick, and has never stopped loving him. Monica is frantic when Rick tells her they can’t hurt Jeff and he’s moving out of their apartment because he can’t sleep twenty feet from her and his brother without someday having the situation explode and destroying Jeff. Heather Grant, a young girl who followed a General Hospital intern to Port Charles after he told her he was a doctor on a singles’ cruise, sees the answer to her determination to “better herself” when she recognizes Peter from the magazine cover and learns that his wife has just lost her baby-sitter. With references her mother helped forge, Heather gets the job, and immediately she promotes a live-in position by claiming her mother will insist she go home otherwise. Peter, initially reluctant, comes to see the advantages and agrees. With her emotional problems solved, Audrey decides to accept her friends’ advice and look to the future. She goes to Steve’s office and tells him she loves him. To her joy, he replies, “I’ve always loved you, and never more than at this moment. And this time we’re going to live happily ever after.” But their happiness is shattered when, moments later, Steve falls down a flight of stairs and suffers an occipital skull fracture and internal injuries. Audrey,constantly at his bedside, knows she never stopped loving him but just didn’t realize it. Steve comes to after twenty-four hours, but finds he has no feeling in his legs and can’t move them. Dr. Marriner, chief of neurosurgery, finds that Steve has a fracture of the seventh thoracic vertebra and surgery is almost impossible due to the risk to the spinal cord. Explaining that these things sometimes heal themselves, he suggests that Steve accept confinement to a wheelchair for a year, to see what happens. Audrey optimistically insists that their wedding will go off as planned, but Steve informs her that he won’t marry her unless his full functions are restored, including his ability to perform sexually. Since Steve was a good friend of their father’s, Rick and Jeff’s relationship is totally restored in this  crisis, leaving Monica to feel that their closeness shuts her out. To keep them both close to her, Monica begs Rick to change his mind and not move out, but he assures her he’s not a masochist and won’t subject himself to more of this for anything. When none of her machinations can prevent Rick from leaving, Monica decides she’ll find him an apartment and set it up as a love nest for the two of them. Cam has to fly to New York, as embezzlement has been discovered in his corporate books, and Cam is shocked to learn that his right-hand man, Mac, is the culprit. When Cam fires him without severance or recommendation, Mac warns Cam that he will someday get his just reward. Cam, angry and bitter, arrives home to find Leslie packing to leave him for good. When he accuses her of never having been a real wife to him, Leslie retorts that he too is admitting there is no marriage. Furious, Cam informs her that she doesn’t respond to patience and gentleness, and then he rapes her. Afterward, he forces her down to the car and shoves her in, driving off toward their mountain retreat. When Leslie begs him to let her go, he tells her he never relinquishes what he owns.He explains he’s going to make her ‘into the kind of wife he wants and she will respond —in ways she never dreamed existed. When she asks  if rape is part of his instruction plans, he savagely replies, “If necessary.” In terror, Leslie grabs for the wheel, and they struggle as the car, out of control, crashes. Leslie is later found dazed and in shock, wandering in the woods. At the hospital she is able to remember enough coherently to send the police to the area. They find Cam dead in the wreckage at the bridge. When Peter tells her Cam is dead, Leslie immediately blames herself, claiming that she killed him. Peter reminds her that she was in the hands of an evil and dangerous man.
