Brady and Sarah is so wrong it's probably right. They're like the male and female version of each other. I can't with Brady not able to get it up for Sarah. LMAO.

 

Marlena/John/Claire/Gwen are literally the saving grace this week so far. Gwen is hilarious.

 

I'm glad we're getting back to the Allie drama. I think she's sticking around but maybe not? I have no idea. She needs to. It makes sense to give her kid to Wilson and ship them off and keep her around. 

 

Ya'll have said everything about Lucas and Bryan already. I'm so happy to have him back. I've always loved him and Lucas and get pissed everytime they dump him. Ron does seem to want him around and others but it seems like he can't keep them long-term. It's weird.

 

And I'm not saying Billy Flynn should lose his job because Kate Mansi doesn't want to be on contract but I really don't see a need for Chad with Stefan/Jake around, personally. I guess it's conflict for Gabi and Stefan/Jake but I'd rather see Tony pop in more often. Not sure who at the show has something against Thaao still but Tony and Anna should be recurring. Not saying on all the time but used when needed. We need more of that. I appreciate the visits we get from characters, which works at times, but I'd like some of them more recurring ... But I get the show has like no budget so ...

I was LMAO when Xander screamed, "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?" when Ben/Ciara/Jake were fighting him for the book.

I also cracked up at the unexpected twist with Brady not being able to get it up for Sarah.

I mean, I'm a boring gay for sure, but I get they should be a lot more interesting.

 

Why not write THEM being the ones to rescue Gabi (but nope, gotta prop Ciara and Ben)? Will is a [!@#$%^&*] investigative reporter and Sonny ... well ... where's Paul when you need him?

 

Funny how they can keep Chabby around year after year but they can't seem to write for Wilson.

Corday doesn't want to offend Trump country, so like virtually all gay people on soaps they emulate boring str8s and have small children with women by age 25.

 

 

Is it though? Is it weird? Because Corday has been hiring and firing Dattilo, Ashford, etc. for decades. It's what I expect now. Certain people he fundamentally disrespects, though he treats the entire rotating cast like cattle.

Really enjoyed the Kate and Hope scenes. We don’t get them together a lot, but Kate just works perfectly all over the canvas.

 

Clearly they’re setting up for Allie to give her kid to Will and Sonny

I will once again say I love having Lucas back and he’s working for me in this relationship with Allie.

    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.     
    • The AMC hate came from Jamey Giddens/DC and their industry friends, IMO. For whatever reason I always felt they targeted the show, and it was wrong. AMC ratings were decent and even went up under Pratt (Yet, he was fired). The ratings were also good under Broderick and lowered out after her interim.  There was no reason to be upset with the show other than it being slow. They literally played it safe and did the best they could in 2010 and 2011. 
    • I have very detailed synopses of all 1976 storylines for the soaps from the Daytime Serial Newsletter. Please let me know if you are interested in a particular show and I will post it in the appropriate thread. As I stated they are very detailed, so I don't want to clutter up threads if posters are not interested.

    • Surely we (and Billy Flynn) are not going to be saddled with a character named Aristotle Dumas? This isn't 1970's Edge of Night.
    • What annoys me a little bit about the "day players" is they sound a bit too "Brooklyn-ish" sometimes.  Obviously, the show was taped in New York City, and the actors are all New York actors, but Monticello is supposed to be located in Illinois or Ohio.  Occasionally, they grab actors and actresses for small roles who have VERY distinct New York accents, which contrasts sharply with the main cast, none of whom have noticeable accents (except for our dashing European gigolo, Eliot Dorn, of course).  The heavy Brooklyn accent works fine if the character is a bookie, or the owner of a pawn shop, or a guy who's selling stolen guns on the street corner.  But when it's a steadily recurring character -- such as the first Mrs. Goodman, who worked for Miles and Nicole -- it's pretty jarring to me sometimes.  And you'll see it often -- such as an "under-five" character who witnesses a car accident, or a character who witnesses a shooting, or the occasional desk clerk, or waiter.
