That was my thought when the whole Brando-leaving-the-mob-dilemna thing unfolded a couple of weeks ago.
It was a C-story but to me it only underscored what a horrible human being and father Jason is because the show was laying it down on the table: leaving that lifestyle for the sake of your kids was a perfectly viable option and the right thing to do.
And it didn't occur to them that it made Jason's choices look even worse in comparison? Especially since it is not like Sonny would be a threat to him if he chose to move on, unlike some other "organizations" who resent turncoats.

Whatever one can say about Carly, a good two-thirds of the characters hate her guts and call her out on her BS all the time. Even Sonny has characters (generally in law enforcement) who are unimpressed.
But Jason is treated as saintly in every corner of Port Charles and it drives me up the wall. He is a killer, a horrible boyfriend/husband and a terrible father.
I am even more annoyed because Jax being the only character who openly dislikes him  makes IR minorly useful to my enjoyment of the show and I have to resent that too.

Queen Ava looking fierce at the pool yet again. "6 years for Sonny... was it worth it?" Really enjoyed the scenes with Shawn. I want more!

I don't understand Carly's dress. Oh look, Jax and Carly are talking about Josslyn's safety again. I mean I'm on Jax's side in all of this (he's pointless but he speaks the truth a lot) but we've seen this scene a million times now.

Why is Jason doing pushups in the boxing ring? LMAO at Obrecht jumping into the ring to confront him. He's illiterate and inconsiderate.

Joey and his goons... are you kidding me with these guys? Also, Jason isn't that scary and I couldn't help but laugh when Joey just kind of snorted in his face.

My god, WHO CARES about Hayden's mom. I honestly forgot that this character even existed. She might be more pointless than Harmony. Oh goodie, she's staying in PC. I was never interested in Hayden and can't believe how much story is revolving around her right now. I don't care about any of it.

Nice scenes with Dante and Laura. Glad Lulu is finally being addressed.

Please don't attempt to put Drew back with Sam, I can only imagine how painful it will be watching scenes with Kelly Monaco and Cameron Mathison in them.

I've always liked Cam. Maybe he will have chemistry with Sam/KM. Also, I could see him having chemistry with Elizabeth/RH.

I always believed when Rebecca Herbst was fired from General Hospital she should have gone to All My Children, and would've had a short-lived romance with Ryan Lavery. I see the chemistry already between them.

Gigi Bermingham (who’s the recast for Hayden’s mom) reminds me of a toned-down Robin Strasser.

    • I think his full name is Chadwick.  I remember, back when the previous actor was playing him, someone called him Chadwick a couple of times.  It may have been Stefano.  
    • I didn't like those two sleeping together, but I suuure liked seeing BF in them. Wiggle and all. Just sad about the waxing of the chest.   Same.
    • It’s strange. I wonder if the writers at that time had worked with him somewhere else and had a relationship? That time is murky AF to find info on. Rachel Ames in effect left the show at one point in the early 80’s and she is credited like she was there until JFP. Tristan Rogers also took various contract breaks that were not short, and websites also credit him one long stint from 1981-1992. So many people come and go in short succession in 1982-part of 1983. I know they lost a lot of viewers when Genie left, but the show somehow survived yearly at number one through like sheer force of will.
    • In that way, at least we were fortunate.  The Daniel Pilon/Ron Raines decisions...not so much.
    • Letting Brennan put it in yet again while smirking over his shoulder... any day now! She's got him just where she wants him! I do think ol' Jack will be dead by February at the absolute latest. They have set him up as a counter-heavy to Sidwell, forcing poor Joss to work his next scheme or threatening to have her sent down for treason. Once he croaks I still deeply fear we will be subject to Valentin and Carly, partners in crime to lovers, possibly out to find out 'who killed Jack'. Anna was at her best keeping Sonny at arm's length and often somewhat cold, which she only really did (for better or worse) off and on during Carlivati's tenure. But Finola gradually got too emotional over Sonny, Jason, etc. and was allowed to do that onscreen too much long ago. Mulcahey brought some of that steel back, though Finola still managed to choke or quietly sob through some of that material as Anna found her way there lol. She's a brilliant actress and she did a good job with that stuff in '24, but now we're back to the same old and it humiliates the character whether she knows it or not.
    • Listen, I am all for Laura Wright wearing silly wigs and glasses if there was a point.  So far she's just been nice to Brennan and made out with him.  How evil lol!!  Even though I have been told Brennan loves her the writing was never there.  It's so low stakes.  Carly should maybe talk to her daughter and have an adult conversation instead. Laura and Anna look foolish.  I really don't have an issue with either being friendly or at least having some affection for Sonny.  I don't get both of them wanting to have a parade to announce how much they love him and how valuable the friendship is.  C'mon, Laura basically tolerated Sonny because of Luke until Lulu/Dante got together.  Anna likes Sonny because Robin did?  There really isn't much more of a reason for Anna to give him the time of day besides that.  They aren't lifelong buddies.
    • It is so dumb and is dragging on already after a couple weeks. By the time Carly wraps this up Joss will be running the local branch office. And yes, Laura deserves better. It's like they tripled down on this Sonny apologia stuff with her and Anna after the Mulcahey saga.
    • A white twunk with no purpose?? On Days of our Lives??!!
    • It feels like the show hired Hank Northrop first and are still deciding what to do with him lol. I don't have a judgement on the character yet, but this non-story (so far) has been happening for at least a month and he's only made 2 appearances lol. Also, this may be a stupid question, but is Chad's name really Chadwick?  I can't find any evidence of that in a quick google search, so I assume it's just a silly nickname Leo calls him?  I feel like I've heard other characters (EJ?) call him that though too.
