Still holding out hope for a Liz/Nik affair and Hayden’s return. 

 

Enjoyed the Obrecht and Britt scene too. Obrecht is finally part of a storyline that is interesting.

 

Anyone else find the Carly and Josslyn scene about taking precautions in light of their situation really ironic?

The moment they had Portia be anti-Ava I figured some in the fandom would hate her instantly. 

 

When I first saw Sasha & Willow I thought they were the same characters. I don't know who thought that was a good idea. 

 

This show is so bland. It's sad.

Her daughter spends time with a mobster, so she takes advice about it from the wife of an even worse mobster.

 

I hope they give Portia an actual reason for disliking Ava, and not just have her be a hypocrite. That would make the story much more interesting.

 

And btw, I am so glad that Cam and Trina kissed but I did think the kiss looked a little awkward.

It's so annoying. Of course Portia hates Ava. I mean, I'd have her hate her too because of the conflict over Trina, but it's typical writing. They [!@#$%^&*] on Ava and prop Sonny and Carly. Ridiculous. Portia can hate all three of them equally

 but of course not under Frank's watch. I feel like they resent how liked Ava is with most viewers compared to Sonny and Carly. Heaven forbid Portia likes Ava and appreciates her concern for Trina despite Ava's history. But of course not.

 

Dan and Chris had a nice little run from October-January but it has since turned back into the Frank/Varni mess. Shame. I still see some differences but I feel a lot less optimistic about some shakeups in terms of couples and storylines. But we shall see. I've been struggling to catch up, honestly. I wasn't missing a day for a while ... and now. Meh. Shame.

I have become too jaded. I knew the upturn wasn't going to last. It's a real shame. With a good EP . Chris & Dan could do a decent job with GH. Even All New Prince Nik can't stand Ava. The only thing i'm enjoying right now is Brit's return. Could careless about the latest mob war. Brando is a pretty Ken doll. But very basic. Out of the numerous new characters. It's Trina who works. Trina has become the glue of the teen set. Propping the mob triad. Has never done GH any favors. Sonny even had an adventure in Turkey with Robert. In the good old days Robert would've out smarted Sonny. Who would've ended up in prison. Never to be heard from again.

I was watching older scenes and I don't understand why other characters need to like Sonny or Carly. It was not always like this, they used to get called out a lot. I kind of forgot how much but the old clips were a reminder. 

 

Anyways for me GH killed the little momentum they had by killing Taggert off so soon. They could have brought Gia back for the funeral. Brooke would have made a good Gia recast, instead of a new character named Portia. Explaining why she might be friendly with Carly.

I mean, exactly. We have to all live under the impression we have it and hope for the best, sort of ... lol. I mean every day we have, gee, a celebrity, having it ... (of course we'd hear about celebrity cases as opposed to regular folks, but still ...)

 

California is a hot spot. New York is a hot spot. Miami is a hotspot. IMO. There are more and I'm guessing it has to do with international travelling. Maybe they aren't being called that but I am.

 

We just need national lockdown, testing everyone, and to move on from this. We can't just sit home until like August hoping for the best.

 

Anywho, I wish Lanier well! ALL OF US could get this. Age doesn't matter. Some of us may have it and have no symptoms. I think we're all being made to be terrified but how can you not be? 

 

Anywho ... probably not the place for this but I've been keeping quiet for a while ...

      Kelly was a horribly-written character overall. Just think, two Emmy-winning actresses (including Cynthia Watros, Nina, GH, and Annie, GL) couldn't make it work. Pamela is campy, but so are Dani, Vanessa, Leslie, and Joey. And, I don't want to be too judgy because my love for camp changes depending on the show. OLTL, DAYS, and some eras of GH had me rolling with the camp. However, Passions was overkill and I hated it. And, here, I can take it or leave it. It's ok in small doses (note to RC). I see this show as more of a serious drama.

      The Pilot Thread

      By Soaplovers · Posted

      I think one of the reasons that pilot didn't get picked up was because Vicki L was associated more with being Thelma Harper and playing older then she was playing her own age.  It was a blessing it didn't get picked up, or we would have been deprived of the syndicated era of Mama's Family.   Also, worth noting a Pre Night Court Marsha Warfield and pre Perfect Strangers Rebecca Arthur in the cast.  All talented women, but stuck with a bad script. And the other pilot had a pre Fran Fine.. Fran Drescher as the best friend.  I think that pilot might have been picked up if Karen Valentine and Fran Drescher switched roles.

      Cady had a fairly posh accent or manner as Rosanna - the character was a 180 from Dixie when she went to ATWT, and it was a huge success initially. As someone mostly only familiar with the nagging, miserable or clueless Dixie of the mid-late '90s and early 2000s it was what convinced me Cady could act. I thought she was incredible in her first run. Later, in future stints, her hair and story and performances were all over the place but a lot of that was down to the show for me. She brought some of Rosanna back with her to Dixie in her ill-fated return and a lot of people didn't like it, which I understood but I did think the character needed some change. I think she's had a little bit of the same persona and arch performance in every role she's played since, including Jennifer Horton at DAYS or Kelly at Y&R, who later became a maniac and was easily the worst work I've ever seen Cady do. It has kind of infected her overall mannerisms, I'll allow that, but I do think she brought Dixie back together as herself while still evolving the character when she returned to AMC again in 2012-13. Nonetheless, for me the upshot is that this is a character where Cady's kookier recent performance style suits the role. But I can understand it grating for people.

      Yeah, Loretta Swit's passing stings. My late dad LOVED the show (he died last November) and watched it religiously. In first run and repeats.  And I was literally born the day after the show's premiere, so I grew up with it! I know many loved later, softer Margaret, but I loved Early Hot Lips. In real life, I'm all for less misogyny, but to me, the early years of M*A*S*H were just funnier. May Loretta Swit rest in peace. Thanks for all the memories connected to my dad!

      I agree that she isn't Dixie or Rosanna and shouldn't be acting like either. I just found it strange that she had a naive Southern character and a wealthy urbane character in the past and didn't experiment with accents before (unless I missed it, correct me if I'm wrong). She used to do improv characters on YouTube. She's probably doing something similar here.
