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.

      Jane Wyman return episode was head-to-head w/ Cheers season 8 finale. Falcon Crest broadcast syndication began Fall 1986, which overlapped w/ Oprah going national. AFAIK cable broadcasts were Lifetime and Soapnet. I have no memory of cable broadcasts on TBS, TNT, TNN, E!, FX.
    • After today’s rushed and abrupt exit for Summer I immediately realized that Josh & Co. were very blindsided by AL’s decision to leave.  Not the first time this has happened to JG either; see MM & HK’s exits in 2021, MM’s exit in 2022, and of course TSJ’s exit last year. Obviously JG and our executive in charge of nothing Steve Kent don’t have a good handle on casting disruptions. And Mariah having an offscreen affair is [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous!! Meanwhile Tessa’s blonde hair is overkill with the number of blondes on the show already. I said the same thing 3 years ago…of course it was utterly ridiculous everyone was mad at Sally for getting Summer he dream job (don’t ask lol) but there was so much the show could have done without bringing on the Marchetti angle.
    • Does the ball on GL where Philip revealed that he had forced Alan out of Spaulding count or was that not Philip's idea?  There was a ball on AMC where Adam revealed that he had bankrupted Palmer, I think (or was it the other way around?), but I can't remember who threw that.
    • Thanks for honoring Ruth Buzzi. She was a treasure. I'm glad DAYS let her have some fun. I remember Imogene Coca complaining about ATWT just giving her a drab guest part.
    • It's such a delicious set of circumstances that I'm actually a little surprised that I can't think of ones that exactly match. I've just got a couple of close but no cigars (the reveal wasn't public, like when Alexis told Dominique at her and Garrett's engagement party that Garrett lied about being married; or the revealer didn't come up with the idea of the party). Maybe I need to think some more about it.
    • Not too shabby, making her mark in only six episodes. There's a project for the soap historians -- characters with the least episodes/most impact.
    • Which could make sense , except that we have seen Mariah function for years w/o any real residue pain from her upbringing. Josh decides to randomly make it a thing, when a good writer might foreshadow that for months. It's not like he's just arrived at the show. He's been there for years . Everything seems to be thought out only a few weeks ahead. It's like Phyllis all freaky from being kidnapped when she has done a million other things that didn't seem to bother her at all.
    • Unrelated, sort of, but he looks absolutely nothing like Amanda Setton or Dominic Zamprogna so it's kind of hilarious they decided to make Gio their kid.  It's very clear this was not the original origin story for Gio when they cast him. He is a very handsome guy though. 
    • I tend to agree, although going back to OLTL, Frank has so often cast guys who are meant to be attractive yet come across as cold and dead, I'm surprised he managed to get one who has a bit of a pulse.
