Horrible news! Vasa is leaving! sad.png She was my favourite next to Brooke and Rachel and the Vasa/Ula/Vinnie family dynamics were a favourite as well. I selfishly pray they don't kill her off, but with Sam's history it's certainly a worry. And reading the article (a "sex" tape scandal!) she's seems like quite an impressive woman. And then there's here having randomly worked with Missy Elliott. Fascinating.

It's been nice to get a break from the Brett story.

Rachel is not really all that likable. She did go off on vacation and didn't deal with that contract. Maybe they should have called her. But she would have been complaining had Boyd just taken the rise in the price too.

The story line with the Parliamentary candidate and the former gang member husband of a patient is a good idea.

Are Emma and Toby gone? It looked like it could be more of a break, as they could come back after the trial.

I see Ula moving in with Kylie though. Very large anvils on that.

Little Tilly actually had a line, "they kissed." Or maybe the kid just said it.

It's kind of too bad Emma's gone, as she's one of the rare nice females on the show. The show tends to think being "tough" is good, but in reality or too much can get irritating - Wendy and Rachel are too much at times. Rachel is bothersome right now. So she fires Brooke for taking care of that contract in a way she didn't like, but now she's using illegal botox or whatever it is. When she gets caught, I hope she gets knocked off her high horse.

Boyd is a real moron. Ava over Brooke? Ava's not in the least attractive IMO with her ugly hairstyle. And she's a criminal. There must be a reason the governments don't want her trials going on.

I'm afraid Rachel's going to get that disease. I hope Ava goes off to jail. Rachel needs to quit being judgmental of others' mistakes after this caper.

The death of Sarah Potts is trending on Twitter in NZ. I may not have been her biggest fan, but she was one of the most popular and longest running characters on the show. A part of me will actually miss her presence. And, at least, she gave Brooke the time of day more than most people. With both of TK's wives dying in less than a year, it'll be interesting to see where they go with him now.

God, I love this show so much. It must be said.

The story of Sarah's death was appropriate to the character, though quite unrealistic in the way she got the disease. The Ministry comes off badly in the story. The way they went through the garbage was absurd - the Ministry would have people in hazmat suits doing that. The disease sounds just like Ebola.

Knowing she had MS, Sarah should not have been looking through the trash like that - TK's anger is quite understandable and realistic.

    • I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.     
    • I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.
    • Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?
    • Thank you for the tag! It's always a pleasure to see these little pearls of memories. 
    • Uh-oh. Today just might’ve been the first Paula/Jeanne stinker. I have a feeling whose fault that might be though. So, Doug III is getting a job at the Pub?  It’s good to see him interact with other characters. I enjoyed his scenes with Roman, even though the talk of Frankie and Max seemed a little random. And it also could be really interesting now that Tate knows. Days really need to start pushing their rivalry again. We need some follow up from the punch. Tying it all to Holly, to Sophia’s pregnancy, to the guys that Doug III owes money to could be good.  But yeah, wayyy too much Leo again in today’s episode. Seriously, has anything changed with this nothing character? I thought it was all Ron’s fault, but maybe Greg Rikaart is (partially) responsible for Leo being so insufferable.  And yeah seriously, Rafe needs to throw all of these people out of his house. Including Gabi

      But I do wonder who’s the mysterious voice that Gabi overheard with EJ on the night he was shot. Based on yesterday’s episode, I have a suspicion. 
    • Add me to the group of people who think that Brandon has improved. He has. There's no doubt about it. Especially compared to the beginning. And he's improving in a way that... it makes me think that he realizes what the issues are and is addressing them. Of course, he's no master of acting at this point... but I don't cringe as much as I did. And I've seen people in Bold... I won't even have to name names, because everyone knows who they are... who are becoming even worse than what they were offering in the first place. So... I'm happy that in BTG... people are actually blossoming and improving. It surely means that the atmosphere is creative and nurturing talent.  BUT and it's a big butt... his relationship with his husband is still so lacking and ghastly. I am craving to see more action from these guys. I want to see Smitty's character. If he has any. 
    • Thank you. You guys come to the rescue again. I'll take a look later.   Thank you for the info!!! Now I find myself less confused. You and @DRW50 are amazing.
    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next.
