Frankly, I don't think it takes much to play batshit crazy convincingly, which is why RSW has never impressed me.  The guy needs to chuck the entertainment industry altogether and, I dunno, work for Subway or something.

That's just it: RSW might be attractive (to some), but so are the legions of struggling, young, hot af actor/models out there trying to stay in the biz.  There isn't anything distinctive about RSW as an actor OR as a model.

 

Meanwhile, I hear Jamba Juice is hiring again.

He’s also on the wrong side of 30. Not that you can’t make a living as an older model, but it’s way more challenging. Certainly I’ve seen actors who were terrible learn and grow, but I just wonder how committed to the craft he is if he’s learned to coast on a sculpted torso.

RSW is no thespian, but his role doesn’t call for one. He’s good enough, and the body and face can’t be denied.

 

i can’t see criticizing him when Freddie Smith (who doesn’t look good and can’t act) is still around in a part that calls for more.

Okay...I'm reading synopses and it doesn't seem to be addressed here...so I have to ask...

 

...according to what I read, sometime after Theresa got exposed for leaving Chloe...it got revealed that Vivian was alive and that maybe Kate did do it on purpose. Has that been shown and how has it gone down? Does anyone know? Or...how?

But, this is DAYS, where even funerals are treated with a shrug.  You can't expect consequences for shootists on a show where no one stays dead and serial killers are redeemed with a bunch of never-before-seen flashbacks.

    • I think the difference between the head writer change at Days vs GH is that the day to day episode quality at GH was still lacking while the day to day episode quality has improved. And now that there appears to be some depth to the episode content... the limitations of some of the performers on Days is more apparent (i.e. Leo, Alex, Sophia, Cat). However, Rome wasn't built/rebuilt in a day so I'm waiting to see how things are in three to four months once some of the threads/stories from Ron's era are tied up/resolved.. and Ford/Cwikly's long term content kicks off
    • That would be me. hehe. Keeping track of who I liked better and how it informed what would happen from episode to episode. 
    • Hey, Mike Manning, hey!!! That shirt and those slacks are working today. lol.   Nice to have this Vanessa/Nicole scene.    Look at Kat vs Eva as a cliffhanger.   I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW SILK PRESS SHEILA WOULD SHOW UP AT NICOLE'S AT SOME POINT!!!      Another trio of cliffhangers (including Dani vs Ted...another combo today)! Friday cliffhangers indeed!!!  
    • Looking forward to hearing your perspective. Tuesday was a little... ehhh though

      And Ron sort of did like a half-assed rewrite to bring them together. Apparently, Stephanie had never met Alex until 2022, even though she already knew Sonny, Joe and Vic 
    • Friday Thoughts:    June and Hayley are going to turn out to be related, or else why the casting on June's character if not for that.  Their voices and mannerisms are similar and Marquita had mentioned in an interview that we would be finding out more about Hayley's backstory.   Tomas/Eva/Kat is for sure going to be moving full steam ahead.. and I can't wait

      Dani/Bill = yawn    Bill/Smitty = Interest reeved up and we all know that means the secret involving Martin/Smitty/Anita is kicking into high gear for May sweeps. Vanessa/Nicole = A satisfying friendship scene.. and Nicole's statement about Vanessa's outside interests.. I did not see that coming Nicole/Andre = I noticed that Andre volunteered knowing about the affair, but managed to withhold the nugget of information where he had convinced Ted not to confess to Nicole. Dani/Ted = This perked my interest Nicole/Silk Press Sheila = A great way to end a Friday episode.  Sometimes grandma's soaps shouldn't be discarded, but followed. Martin/Smitty = Kat is right that Smitty is too good for Martin.. and Martin did act as though he missed his afternoon nap. Ashley/Derek = Unpopular opinion.. I actually kind of missed them.   I view their scenes as a great way to kickstart a drinking game... take a shot anytime you wonder to yourself what is the point to their characters and/or either one of them says something cringey.  You'll be guaranteed to be buzzing by the end of the episode Previews for next week: Looks like Nicole has found out about Dani/Andre's FWB set up? Kat vs Silk Press Sheila looks promising.      
    • GH isn't that character-driven a show in recent decades. I think reaction depends on whether the character has a passionate fanbase. A character like Ava always has people who will defend her and back her up, as does a character like Nina (when they used to write for Nina, anyway). Dante doesn't.
    • Go 'head, Martin!! GATHER.   Oh my goodness!!! Now we are getting Bill/Smitty. The combos today. 
    • Yeah; I feel like, in previous regimes, it wasn't as consistent as this. You could go episodes without it changing. I just hate the random indent on the secondary head writer.
    • Got it. I vaguely remember this being discussed. I guess it's fair.
    • Why does this Smitty/Kat talk feel like foreshadowing what's coming with Martin's Secret?   Hahaha. Not Kat and Tomas keep getting business in their way. And uh oh...Eva.   Oh, there's Ashley and Derek. Mmmm those pants.   And ooooooooo another Ted/Martin scene. YES, PLEASE.   Andre...no, no, no!!!! This is going to come back on you with Dani!!
