I haven't been watching since mid-March (as I'll be tuning back in via YT in a week when

) so all I've been commenting on is online hearsay about the show. From what I saw back then, Starr wasn't wheezing one bit and was fine to me.

As for "gossipy Black dayplayer"? Why am I not surprised that Ron tried to bring in a Benita Butrell to the show? Much as I've enjoyed Ron's camptasticness, he is absolutely shitty when it comes to the portrayal of Black female characters (Vivian, being the exception).

I understand that soaps play with ages, but they usually blur out actual dates. Aren't Sonny, Kate and Olivia the same age? So how old is Dante? That really bothers me for some reason.

Anyway, can anyone explain how wild child, hellraiser Benson Hurst Connie got into Yale? I think its Yale, since she stopped in Connecticut. I guess I'm just trying to figure out the backstory of this character.

You get very passionate about defending RC's writing of the GH and go on about how its much better than before....yet you havent even been watching it for yourself.

Funny you say that bc a couple of months ago, Starr didnt even have a year on her license. Yes they are all about the same age, at least within a year of each other. Dante is in his late 20s, possibly even 30 by now/ The Bensonhurst crew should all be at least in their mid 40s, not late 30s

Sounds like rewriting of her history.They are trying to say that Kate was like this when she was a teen and only changed when she decided to change her identity, but as far as I know, she was never described as this crude, obnoxious, wild bitch.

They did this with "Teen Jess" too. Supposedly the trauma of the electric shock combined with Mitch's attempted rape made Jess forget everything after she was in high school and in love with Cris. But "Teen" Jess acted nothing like the Teen Jess we all saw grow up on the show. It was ridiculous. Young Jess never schemed to get a man, among other things. It's just a device to allow these characters to do the most outlandish things Ron can conceive. It doesn't have to make sense. So much of his plot point writing never does.

otherwise known as the storyline I found so offensive that i dropped the show. They were really insulting our intelligence as viewers with that crap. I hated how the chracters almost acted like it was normal and just allowed her early 30s ass enroll in highschool and scheme to get her teacher. Yeah bc Jessica was really like that when she was a teen wacko.png . I couldnt even bother with that crap bc it was beyond stupid

    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
    • Is nobody going to mention the cringefest that is 'Carl Ivati'?
    • I've accepted we'll probably never see any of the Roger/Holly 1976-1978 storyline. Whenever any of Roger/Holly 1979 and 1980 storylines surface, those are must watch as they set in motion everything we saw a decade later.
