I don’t watch now but is Mariah doing GCBuzz now and is the GCAthletic club still there?  Weren’t people living there?  Wasn’t Phyllis living there?  

And the Athletic club was so stupid because they all have pools and gyms at home.  Yet they’d go to the gym  and pool somewhere else.

GC Buzz thankfully has been dropped (one of the worst ideas in recent years and that's saying something)

Once Society came along the Athletic Club vanished - seems GC residents are quite fickle.

I guess GCAC was dropped because the set took up too much space and they now want as many permanent sets in place to save on erecting/dismantling as was done in the good old days.

The Adam story is beyond dumb. Is he staying in the same hotel room Billy did with his DID? LOL! 
 

How long is Noah staying for? I swear the show just telegraphed Noah & Lola as a couple just to continue Summer vs. Lola. Yikes!

 

Poor Sharon. I hate they’re writing her this way. She’s still sick and yet is about to open her legs again for Adam.

The show that had Nick & Rey talking to each other about Sharon from two different booths mentioned COVID-19 social distancing in bare minimum passing but they didn’t dwell on it further. It would be more interesting to weave in the underlying conditions part for Sharon & Nikki of course the show’s TPTB are too stupid to even address that.

I like Sharon and Adam together. There’s chemistry, which she doesn’t have with Rey and he doesn’t have with Chelsea.

 

As far as Sharon opening her legs for Adam, it’s her life and her business. She’s a grown woman, and Adam isn’t forcing her to dwell on his problems or to do anything.

 

Lola and Noah might work. That short scene had some chemistry, and I’d like to see Robert Adamson back full time as Noah. Lola and Theo are not working at all. She’s pissed at him every 10 minutes, and the writers are doing Lola no favors.

 

Addressing COVID on the show? No thanks. I don’t want to see it. They’d have to make it a big deal for every character in order to do it justice, and I don’t want the show turning into The COVID-19 Hour.

I do not particularly care about Adam and Sharon, but Chelsea is the most boring and pointless character on this show next to Mariah's girlfriend and maybe Lola or Amanda. She has never had a reason to be here. Chloe better be gone too.

The pandemic might be forcing the writers' hands. With Sharon and Josh a real life couple, they probably figure at least it will allow them to have closer scenes on the show. At least there's significant history with the characters. It sucks for Ray, who is a good guy and deserves better.

 

It sure would be nice for Robert Adamson to stick around for awhile. Noah's certainly more mature than his father.

I don’t know for sure, and my eyesight isn’t as good as it used to be, but it appeared to me the scenes were in the motel room were shot weirdly. It seems like they were using some trickery to make Sharon and Adam appear closer than they actually were. I even felt like Chance’s hands had some odd effects when he moved them.

 

EDIT: I had no idea Sharon and Mark were together, as I don’t follow them on social media. Perhaps my eyes were indeed deceiving me.

    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
    • Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.
    • Those Soap Central profiles have a lot of incorrect info. According to SOD summaries and the Daytime Newsletter of the time,Tim left town for a new job and Pam reunited with the father of her baby and also departed Springfield.They did not marry.
