My point is they didn't need to hire a temp because his absence wasn't detrimental to the storylines. And yes they chose to part ways but that doesn't make him unappreciative because he couldn't agree to a contract with them which was my point to begin with.

I am so confused about "Chelsea by Jabot" - What is her purpose except be the name? She is never there. We never see her working. Today was just ridiculous. She was late to the shoot. Then she waked in picked an outfit and walked out. She was there 15 minutes tops. I know people barely work on this show but damn.

I thought she did modified clothing? Is she now doing originals? If so, then you are right. She does need a sketchbook and fabrics...show her and Chloe arguing over sketches or pinning fabric to a mannequin or something...when this SL first started, before little chitterling was born, Chloe, Chelsea, Gloria, Lily and Tyler spent time in their office, which was the RS building. They had fabrics at least although Chloe and Chelsea spent most of their time talking about Chelsea's love life and Tyler and Lily spent most of their time flirting...even Devon got in on the action there with a confrontation with Tyler.

But not anymore. Everything is about the baby and Adam. This alone makes me hate the Chadam pairing even more.

We're talking about two different things. You enjoy him so naturally you must think he's good. But I'm talking about an objective evaluation of his acting. That has nothing to do with personal opinion of him. I think BM's very good looking and charismatic, and I enjoyed his work on primetime. Do I think he's objectively good or even great? Nope. He's an OK actor. Because good acting skills are really not a matter of opinion.

And, may I just...

Which doesn't surprise me. The relaxed shooting schedule, the rehearsal, the better direction by the producers & the director, the better writing perhaps, can bring on miracles. Daytime can be a very harsh environment unless you're very talented & willing to bring it (which is why consistently great performers on daytime will always have my undying respect). Clearly BM is not willing to bring it.

    • Someone apparently told Brad Bell that "playing all the beats" meant repeating the same dialogue every day.

      Steal her away from Y&R and make her "Sharon".  
    • -- I continue to enjoy DAYS post-Carlivati. These women have done a great job in refocusing the show. -- It sounds nuts not to agree with "rapists and murderers shouldn't be romantic leads." But then you get characters like Xander and EJ, and you have to put an asterisk after that quote. I enjoy both characters far too much to want them off the show or thrown in jail. They're romantic leads, but you can't tell me they haven't faced consequences. -- I think the Xander beatdown of Phillip was well-directed -- and in character. Some people here believe Xander went too far. Well, that's who Xander is, and we've seen that many times over these past years. He thought he had family, and then realized it was all a lie, so he resorted back to his animal roots. -- The Stephanie Racy Book storyline is soooooo bad. I had to laugh that she couldn't find her manuscript in that 2x4 apartment.
    • Both Philip and Xander should be in jail, period.
    • 5-14   AMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYY!!! Thank the Lord! lol. But at least I now have something of interest to watch. So good to see Audra and Amy reunited. hehe. I also liked the continued bonding between Damian and Nate. Side-note...those pants on SD and all of that cake is PERFECTION. Mmmm.   I also enjoyed the continued dragging of Billy. First by the son. And then by the father. lol. Billy standing there and being so insufferable and wonder why people are giving him the business. He can stay at that bar and STFU. Double for Chelesa.    And ugh at Giggly Heffa wasting Victor's (and the audience's) time with her inability to spit it out. At least she made up for it by calling Dumas directly. I was just talking about how I love near-miss in the BTG thread, but the difference here is that the Dumas part of the Damian storyline has gone on too long. So her near-miss was annoying. 
    • Agreeing with your agreeing, and I bet that any urge toward violence against Sarah is what will cause Xander to try to redeem himself. Even though, as you mentioned the other day, I have enjoyed the buildup.  It seems like everyone easily forgave Philip for stealing from Xander.  And their defense was that Victor wanted his two sons to work together.  Until, finally, Xander exploded and realized that Victor wanted what he wrote in his will, days before his death.  If Philip had led an actual legal battle for the estate, then Xander might have capitulated.  But, Philip made him look like a fool.  Because Philip was too smug to simply ask Xander for what he thought he deserved.  I was shocked/enthralled by how raw they allowed Xander to express his rage.  I don't think that would have been allowed before streaming, yet they show people with guns weekly on GH.  I also want to point out that there is still the inorganic nature that neither person in a fight can swear, that I always find distracting. noted for the contrarians, that is not a defense for violence  -- I assume we are all of sound mind, and know right from wrong. - I also know it airs on network TV in other countries, so they still abide by network daytime standards. - blah blah blah
    • I imagine Philip will refuse to identify Xander because he knows he orchestrated this mess and tanked his brother's marriage. Eventually I hope to see Philip and Xander reconciling their awful crimes against each other and restoring that brother bond.  And Xander needs therapy. He was twisted into what he is by Victor's cruelty and has zero anger management skills. Having said that I think this was more a gross writing choice than anything else. One punch would have sufficed for sure but they wanted to show us Sarah was "right". Never mind that she created this situation by helping Xander love his brother so the betrayal was far worse. If he'd heard the truth immediately he would have had Philip arrested and fired him. But Sarah wanted Philip to be her mole to control her husband at work. Who never needed it as he's run Titan just fine on his own before.
    • Oh that's right. Thanks. Thanks @dc11786 I guess Conroy did last for a bit. Never knew why AW didn't see his potential either.
    • May 19, 2025 Fairman interviews Lynn Herring about the Nurses Ball. Excellent interview and no GH spoilers. CAUTION There is a minor DAYS spoiler from 12:15 to 14:15, so if you are Days spoiler-free, then skip those two minutes. Thus intentionally posting the link instead of embedding the youtube.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYXKsKa1xTE
