it is a great set, but I don’t know how it will wear. Does everyone get the same days off? Why don’t you have to have a room at the hotel to use the pool? Will all these extras suddenly disappear?


Jason has always been the love of Spinelli’s life. He’d marry Jason if he could.

I really think it is. He's so afraid to lose Howarth again even when it seems even Howarth knows it's time to move on (yet didn't stop him from collecting a paycheck, but who can blame him? lol)

 

I agree on his early scenes in 2013. He should have been Jimmy Lee's son then. Sigh. It has a lot of potential but I just don't care anymore. I also wonder if I'd care if it were anyone else playing "Austin". It just feels a little too late and with Jimmy Lee dead, it's almost like what's the point except to give him Q ties and ensure he's tied to the canvas.

 

I'd also argue they should have cast someone in their 30s to play Austin instead of Howarth (of course Austin was created FOR Howarth so it's moot but still ...). We have way too many middle-aged men (JMO). The canvas feels a bit unbalanced. 

 

It was the *stupidest* move to make him Franco. Who truly thought that was a good idea?

 

There's definitely contempt towards the audience. Easton as Finn doesn't really bother me anymore (who should be Tom Hardy) but it's just as ridiculous as Howarth playing so many characters. Enough. I didn't like when Tamara Braun played character #2 either (and we won't even talk about Bonnie and Roman on DAYS)

What the heck was Sam wearing today? She looked like one of the waitresses at the Metro Court. I hate how they excuse Jason's assh-le behavior. "Oh it's okay that you didn't tell me about the engagement, we kept missing each other." Huh? Jason could've picked up the phone. He didn't give one f-ck about telling Sam, Liz, Jake or Danny. I was hoping Sam would call him out! But everyone just forgives him and tells him it's okay. Those Jason/Sam scenes were so lame. Why is everyone just going along with this crap and acting so accepting? Gosh this is stupid. Sam, be done with these fools and go peek at shirtless Dante by the pool. I did enjoy Maxie and Sam chatting. I'm not opposed to Dante/Sam but I wish Lulu would get brought up every once in a while.

It's weird that people who don't live at the Metro Court are hanging out at the pool. But whatever. Chase looked good. Brando still looking hot as hell. Brando being conflicted about the mob vs. his baby could be an okay story if it actually got any airtime.

I can't believe that Monica has actually been getting airtime. Too bad it's about this Austin BS! Can't believe we got Jason and Monica scenes twice in like one week though. Not here for Austin vs. Jason.

Anna and Valentin didn't see Sonny. I'm stunned. Can something please happen here already? This Jason/Carly mess needs to end, lol. Jason kissing her cheek was nasty! Carly looked happy.

Lenny has cancer. Bring him to GH to see Terry!

Willow/Nina scenes... boring as hell! Who cared about these scenes?

I was just about to bring Lulu up myself.  

Yeah, both looked good, and at least the conflict is natural and not another person.  The Michael/Willow reveal needs to happen soon for Chase to move on...

 

These "misses" have been so ridiculous.  First Jax, then Joss/Trina, now Anna.

"There's some woman named Maeve singing Danny Boy in the back room."  Good Grief stop dragging up RH characters #firefrank. After ruining all of Delia's back story, FuckfaceFrank should just leave that show alone. Especially after bringing a "Joseph Novak " to town. The character is too young --to all the people on Facebook GH groups--to be the same character. I'm not in one, but some of my friends are, and I get to see some of the posts through groups.   

Other stupid quotes I read today:

"Why can't poor Jason be happy?"

"When are Austin and Liz going to fall in love-- I need Roger to be with Rebecca"

"I'm so happy Carly and Jason are finally together!"

It will be at least a week before we see Terry, and she'll be bickering with Britt, not actually healing.

Painfully boring.  Looking forward to seeing Nina shunned by every character, especially Michael.

Wallow just has zero energy. All of her storylines are as dull as Sabrina's. At least Sobby showed a little personality once in a while.

Once the truth comes out, can she run out of somewhere and be hit by a speeding car driven by Austin--2 birds one stone!

Like it would be nice if Dante had some conflict or guilty feelings about liking Sam and wanting to start something with her while Lulu is in a coma. They haven't done a lot with Sam/Dante yet and they don't really have a story, so it could make things more interesting. But it's like Lulu doesn't even exist anymore.

I was thinking that the next death needs to happen in the new pool. Willow is a great candidate. Michael can go to the pool and discover her dead body floating in the water... in my dreams LOL.

Why? Because that's the price you pay for killing people for a living

And, I need Rebecca to be with Jonathan, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. Regardless, I am enjoying the show right now, except for the Austin stuff, of course.

Exactly

I'd be fine with a grieving period where she focuses on her boys and is a support system for Violet, Terry, Scott, etc and then starts to fall for someone.  The fast tracking her to Finn could have played out over a longer period of time. It wouldn't be rushed, and I might have wanted to see the story.  It's the pacing that really falls flat.  (That and his four roles ).

 

That's all I want to see, a little regret. Maybe a flashback to him and Lulu (Or one with a broom and the Laura wig if necessary doctored as a flashback) as he's about to kiss Sam.

 

We are so on the same page!!!!

Awwwwwww

 

Ooooooo...something to look forward to...

 

7-7-21

 

Girl, bye. Leave it to Carly to make it all about her. LOL!!!! And awwww at Jason looking like a hurt puppy as he saw Britt with Jax. Meanwhile, Carly and Britt are giving good angry energy.

I appear to be loving so much the building. The week appeared to be building plots. And since the ones it is building on is B and C plots that have been needing time to grow I've been enjoying them.

 

Like for one...I LOVE the writers mixing Monica into the Brooklyn/Maxie baby switch. Is it too much to see her continuing down this road...along with the coming Quartermaine drama? We might not get her on the frontburner, but active supporting is looking great on her. 

 

Valentin, Anna, and the kiss. It just felt...earned. And how Anna is reacting is kinda like how she reacted to Luke. And here I feel she has a good match.

 

So Spencer is doing the classic soap trope of pretending to be someone else. Who would have thought the kid who was all about his title would be acting like someone less? And of course Trina...who has no history with him...is seeing him and no one who has history has. Meanwhile, the potential is there. For so much. Jumpstarting the teens. Jumpstarting the stalker storyline. 

 

Speaking of jumpstarting...so Dev's storyline FINALLY comes to an end. And it looks like Cameron and Joss are finally going to be together. Meanwhile, Dante and Sam FINALLY kissed. I...didn't hate either one of those. 

 

Hehe...Liz fell asleep on Finn saying that he might be liking her. 

 

All these storylines...all these possibilities. Me likey.

    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

    • I started a separate thread for the same tribute, but of course it can be discussed wherever. doesn't matter where. Fyi  Jason Cook, Staci Greason, and Eileen Davidson will be there as well as Reckell and some of the current cast Thread for Live tribute to Drake https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn
    • Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
