I think CK does well as an event planner/Hostess/Socialite. They need to keep Lily there. Besides, it is great for her airtime. She has been on every day this week. Good for her. If they are going to say she is a lead then she needs to get the story and airtime of a lead. JMO. If only Lily could get rid of Cane.

Hilary is amusing. I still can't figure out whether that kiss with Jack was unplanned or not. She seemed to want to get his attention away from Kelly. Nope. Then went running after Devon only to get her feelings hurt. I wonder what she wanted with him. I am sure we will never know. Either way, loved the soapyness of it all. And Devon and Esmeralda were hot!

I like the chemistry between Jack and Kelly. They were flirty and fun. CW continues to impress. But I don't know how we are supposed to buy any relationship with jack with him constantly crying on the phone talking to a comatose Phyllis.

I found myself laughing a Chloe's reactions to all the concern and discussions about Delia. When she zoned out on Neil, I thought she would faint. Hilarious! But I am not sure it was supposed to be.

That Leslie is very slick by giving Neil a present to shut him up about their wedding, or lack thereof. This feels fresh for Neil to me because usually his romances are the other way around. The woman wanting him while he is not all there. Shockingly, I find this interesting.

I don't buy Cane and Lily as event planners at all. Especially Cane he's so damn sleazy. And Lily can't be taken seriously walking around dressed like an escort on the job in those tight dresses all the time. That and she seems like the type that would easily crack under real pressure.

I'm so done Chloe's whining and bitching about. I know she just lost her kid but I don't feel her pain or grief at all. She's been acting pretty much the same as she was before Delia died.

Well, there is the lack of romantic chemistry (friendly chemistry is there) and age factor problems. I was dead set against them until their park bench scene last week. I find myself rooting for Neil to get what he wants when before I was praying that she left him at the alter. Go figure.

I don't buy them as human beings.

I have never liked Chloe much - at least not since they moved her away from Billy Miller - but now she is both a huge, entitled bitch and crazy obsessed with someone else's baby. I know Missy Egan's current role is at least as boring as early Annie on AMC, but that's no excuse. Chloe can go.

I like the idea of Jack with either Cynthia Watros or Hilary, but Watros is out so there goes my interest in that.

Kelly works much better with Jack than Billy but I'm so sick of him whimpering through the phone to comafied Phyllis. Hilary was hella irked at Jack and Kelly. I think her kissing Jack was foolish but soapy. He's not into her like that though so off she went to look for Devon who was getting it in with gold digger Esmeralda. The Hevon argument should be good.

I think Chloe's dress was the ugliest and of course she acted the ugliest. It would be hard for me to get through such a night of constant reminders though and I probably would've skipped it. I think after she

There's nowhere else for this character to go. TPTB have their upgraded version in Chelsea now.

    • -- 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
    • Well life is full of surprises. And it's not the first time over the last few years the 'murder mystery' target has moved off a GH character. So...we'll see.

    • I'm not a Philip fan, but Xander is a kidnapping, murderous thug! I loathe Xander. I don't know why Sarah stays with him. The Stephanie manuscript sex book ...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... Yawn...this is the best they can write for Stephanie?
