They cannot use Liz unless she is there to praise Franko.   "You saved Port Charles".....  It truly is nauseating to see every scene he's in being about praising the character.   Remember how much  Franko was missed when Howarth's negotiations were at a stand-still? Neither do I!  The same with Devry   gone, and not necessary to bring back. Same with Easton while he was gone.

 

The only reason the three of them are still around is because ValenVarni want them there.

 

 

Also, no one needed cheesy Carla Hall as Cook 2. The whole point of referring to an unseen character is that they are never seen.   Her hamming it up did nothing for the story.  Who doesn't have the food for an event started earlier in the day?  Ridiculous.   Glad to see her show is finally going off the air.

I can’t believe with these numbers that ABC cancelled The Chew to give GMA more time instead of GH.  I just wish TPTB we’re making a show I was enjoying, so I could support a network that is clearly supporting its soap when there is a cheaper option available.

Great job Father Griffin. Banging mother and daughter.  Kiki must love sharing sloppy seconds from her mom........(Yes I know he left the priesthood, but he still walks around like a sanctimonious douc he-bag.)

OMG I tried to get through six episodes starting with May 14 and nurses ball.  Wow, the show is a mess right now.  When Spinelli is breaking into computers with Jason/Sam, you know the writers are scraping the bottom of the Bob Guza barrel.  I think Shelly and Chris are either burnt out or there are other cooks in the kitchen.  Nothing's working.  The ball numbers were horrible.  Most of the acting has taken a turn for the worse.  And the Anna/Finn/Alexis plot is written at the fourth grade level. Embarrassing for the actors.  But I fear Barbara Bloom's long story bible is on the horizon for GH's final swan song year.

I don't bother blaming these writers for anything anymore. This is ValenVarni's crap and everyone knows it. Whenever CVE and SA start getting on a roll, Valentini goes in and changes the stories to make them about Franko, Nina, Julian or Finn. (As in Laura running for mayor, making a difference.)  Is Mayor Ned or Alexis able to help the city?  Nope Franko and a one off member of Jim Harvey's molestation story come in to save PC.

 

About to watch today's episode to see him start shining his new sparkly penny, EH. I'm sure I'll be a fan of hers, too.

I was about to go through the tv if they had dared have Anna tell Robin that Peter is her brother via a one-sided telephone call.

 

But now, with Anna jetting off to Berkeley, I have a feeling that the conversation will happen off screen which will be just as bad.

 

If we have to sit through this retcon, could they at least attempt to make me care about the players involved?

Personally, I think the Anna/ Robin scene should be on-screen, but they have played her having the same conversation with EVERYONE over and over. I don't need to hear it again,as much as I love FH, We get it ValenVarni. You hired another meh actor and tied him to a family. So what else is new?

    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
    • Today is Sean Freeman's birthday

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
