An interview with Rob is in the new SOD, found this photo on Twitter. I love the promo shot, I wish TOLN was releasing more. I'm still waiting to see more out of Melissa Archer and Josh Kelly other than being in the main cast photo.

This was Kelley's in the SOD from two weeks back

Jen Pepperman just dropped some little tidbits on Twitter. Nothing too spoilery.

Oh and a new interview with Rob Gorrie. http://www.welovesoaps.net/2013/06/interview-rob-gorrie.html

@ToddNBlair @KassieDePaiva @realtoddmanning @JaredKaplan yes the entire cast, except Nora, sorry Hillary, are in Thursday's show!

On Cutter and Natalie:

@AvaKlaws Yes, they broke the date, but will be rescheduled soon, and it will actually be a double date!

Also, a fan favorite returns on Thursday's show!

Strange double date on the one hand but I could see it if we get some set up where Natalie and Destiny are encouraging each other about moving on from their respective baby daddys.

At some point down the road, I hope we get a Natalie/Matthew scene. I think she had some interaction with him when he was way younger and the show seems to be emphasizing the more extended family connections. It could be interesting since she's a single mom and obviously very close with Destiny.

Also just needed to share- my mom (who is finally on ep 4 despite having a wii and an ipad and being given my hulu and itunes passwords)- "I miss Bo. All he does is dance in the opening" followed by "Why did they bring on Vidal (yes Vidal) and Rama instead of Gigi" followed by "Where is Dani's boyfriend?" Mother of god, its like the FB commenters only real life.

It does make for a strange double date but like you said it could be Nat and Des encouraging each other to move on and let the past go. It could be interesting watching Natalie/Destiny/Jeffrey/Cutter together

Leslie Miller rubs me wrong. But at the same time she seems like she's kind of a no-BS woman when you scrape off all that forced TV fluff anchor buzz she's had to cultivate for her career. I wouldn't mind more of that realness, but I'm still not sure she should be hosting that show if she barely knows soaps.

Then again, most of the "alternatives" the online fandom and press are demanding in her place shouldn't be in front of a camera, for reasons more mental and emotional than physical.

I think Leslie is OK, aside from some of the clipped nature of her speaking and how distant she feels at times. I agree that most of the soap 'press' would be worse, although I think Roger Newcomb would do well. I also think an AMC or OLTL cast member could do this.

    • OMG!!!! ONE OF ANITA'S BANDMATE IS COMMMMMMMMINNNGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!    
    • I'll add that I did think the Bill/Smitty scenes were the best--played really well.
    • I am loving that Anita's story is off and running. And it's a slow burn.   OOoooo another Bill/Smitty scene. But I'm loving that the seed that Bill planted has really been growing over yesterday and now today's episode. Cuz Smitty going to Nicole...uh oh now.    Kat continues to be smart and love it. But hopefully she realizes she's getting played by Silk Press Sheila.    And probably in the minority, but I do like the June storyline so far. And it has not stalled really at all. It feels organic in terms of pacing.    
    • Well I'm always here for people singing my song when it comes to the New/Old writers. lol.  Same.   Also same.  
    • I got the feeling she's always been slightly too flirty with him?  But this brings up a comment I've had whenever I see Vanessa with these weird men (or was this one we've seen before) who she has role play sex hijinks with...  They always just come off as plain bizarre.  This guy followed her in the middle of the day to a cafe?  The dialogue always seems like they want to push the boundaries too with what they can say but then just comes off as incredibly weird (something about what she did with her foot?) And oh yes, let's go to an underground/backroom casino to try to raise money for our new upstart agency? I hate to say it, and I didn't catch the writers for this episode, but I felt this was another episode like some past ones where the dialogue throughout sounded off and not natural--and too filled with references and metaphors that maybe looked nice on paper but not so much when people say them. (Oh and random--why cast a day actor as a surgeon for a tiny scene and then reveal in the next hospital scene that he can't do it because of a family emergency?  Just... kinda weird.)
    • Oh, lord. I was hoping that Doug would be in June's surgery for a while. Now I'm afraid that she's going to run right into Dani and Pamela.    
    • The shirtless scenes increased under Nicholson as EP with Quinn, Hogan etc. They had focused on Steve Kendall under Joanna Lee in 1983 but not much bare skin on SFT overall.  Louanne was a terrible recast. And don't get me started on Pam Long's horrible final six months as head writer with the Ireland plot and the convoluted Judge Henderson plot. I watched it daily until the end and cannot summarize either plot.  
    • Running in late and a bit out of order cuz yesterday was a mess but since I'm here...   So far I am liking that there are a lot of hotties and bubbles on display. lol.   A lot of plot is moving and/or being touched on. Right down to ANOTHER of Vanessa's many men. He was cute and bubbled, too.    So far, I'm not feeling SilkPress vs NuTed. 
    • I am really struggling with all this Dante Doesn't Like Gio stuff. Would Gio be engaged in this many conversations about how angry Dante is with him? It's overboard and forced beyond belief. I get it. The writers want to create friction between Gio and Dante before the paternity reveal. I just think it should be much more natural and organic. GH has had MANY MONTHS to create this drama, and instead woke up and said "We gotta go at this hard, because we're out of time."
