OMG! Who is Stamos calling sociopathic? I think he thought Ron started the tweet convo if I'm seeing this correctly? LMAO if he called Ron sociopathic, we've all been saying that for years.


I was pretty sure her Franco/Jason twin manipulation had begun before that though, no?

This is the entire conversation:

@JohnStamos would you ever consider coming back to #GH ?

Never! I tried,they wanted me 2 play J.G. on drums with R.S. Legacy too important to me. RT @maddiebullock19 come back to #GH ?

@JohnStamos @maddiebullock19 I'm sure I will be shouted down by 1.3M people, but this is a total mischaracterization of what occurred.

Sociopathic! You don't remember phone call in @valentinifrank office? RT @maddiebullock19 @carlivatiron @valentinifrank

@JohnStamos @valentinifrank @maddiebullock19 Yes, I remember it well. But for some reason you seem determined to rewrite the narrative.

Here's a dumbed down version in case anyone is still confused:

Fan: Hi John Stamos, would you ever return to GH?

John Stamos: Never! I tried to! They wanted met to play Jessie's Girl behind Rick Springfield….The legacy of Blackie is too important to me for that horse [!@#$%^&*].

Ron Carlivati: Uh-uh girl that's not what happened.

John Stamos: Don't lie bitch, are you a sociopath? do you not remember the phone call in Frank's office?

Ron: That's not how it happened!! You're re-writing history!!

You know, even when some people are genuinely acting a fool - like Jack Wagner, who despite some very valid complaints about this spring's Frisco storyline, was not exactly putting in a brilliant performance himself at the time either, and seemed tone-deaf in the press to how it made Kristina feel - that doesn't mean that you, as the head writer on a major television program, have to get in there and act a fool too. (Wagner also supposedly told RC and the writers up front that the material was "pedestrian" or facile or something, and while it may be a dick thing to say and Jack Wagner may be a major dick all around, I can't really disagree re: that story.) Sometimes the best thing to do with obnoxious people is sit back and let them rage and bury themselves, instead of burying yourself in the process.

John Stamos's story, OTOH, checks out and he's been sticking to it since much earlier this year. He explained this in-depth in another recent article and I happen to believe it. Ron just doesn't like being questioned or told no.

It's not as bad as I thought, but between this and Jack Wagner's complaints you can tell that Valentini isn't great with the people skills.

I say Valentini, not Ron, because it's Valentini's job as producer to meet or deal with these people. Clearly he didn't do a good job of it during the anniversary.

I think they both look ridiculous. Ron clearly has no social skills and needs to get out of conversations that don't involve him and John Stamos needs to stop harping over a cameo from 10 months ago. If he didn't like what they wanted him for (and the truth is more in between than what both parties say although JS is way closer to the truth), then turn it down and move on. They both look stupid.

I wasn't even aware John Stamos was some big draw or worth all this fighting over.

My coming week has been made! Someone calling moRon out for the sociopath he is! I absolutely love it!

Agreed, Ant. Ron jumped into a convo that didn't concern him. And IIRC, this from JS is consistent. He didn't want a cameo on the drums behind RS. I remember this vividly because I felt he was wrong at the time for not wanting to come and honor GH for its 50th.

    • Thanks!   Was anyone watching during this time? Wondering how Peggy’s rape played out onscreen. It just seems cruel to subject the Brooks family to this trauma a 2nd time.   Feels like the writers have already given up on the character of Jennifer, even though she sticks around another year-plus. She should be a passionate and fierce protective mother, but instead she seems just reactionary (and not even mentioned in this recap) This was also the case in ‘73 when Chris was raped. The writers are definitely more invested Stuart as the Brooks parent.
    • BTG got another SNL reference at 00:50  CONTEXT (so it isn't misconstrued) in this joke swap segment, Michael Che frequently makes his white cohost Colin Jost read racist jokes written by Che.

    • It's obvious that Israel's presence is a major divisive issue, and this is something that the EBU needs to deal with. According to the now published results Israel got 13 out of a possible 19 max points in the semi-final, and while their song isn't bad there's no way they would get those numbers without some kind of manipulation/political voting. They are clearly using this contest as a way of improving their somewhat tarnished reputation. I know that some people are comparing this to the massive sympathy votes that Ukraine gets and which propelled them to victory in 2022, but I feel that that was a more genuine show of support than this concerted effort from Israel to influence the televoting. I even had an ad on Youtube from Israel in Swedish(!) asking for votes! It might not be against any rules, but it feels a bit icky nonetheless.
    • Yeah, as you wrote, an Israeli win would have been a political disaster. Congratulations to Austria. 0 points from the televoting to Switzerland was a disgrace. Other than that, I really enjoyed the show ... but I'm also glad that Eurovision season is over

    • Hahaha Sorry if I was too negative, I just started typing and typing once I got going hahaha
    • @dc11786 Thanks for taking time to answer my various questions, along with giving your thoughts on the different writing teams. I wonder why they didn't just have Ryder and TR leave together if Jane was going anyway. The discussions over the last few pages have made me more interested in watching these episodes than I have been over the years - without the extra details and analyses provided, these years can be difficult to decipher (not helped by how often Jo seems like a side character).
    • I didn't think this was very good (I've never yet seen a good episode of this revival), but you do get a lot of Michael Stroka. And if you are a Donna Reed Show fan, you also get Paul Petersen.
