Ugghhh Michael is such a wimp. 
 

Trina/Spencer/Esme is classic soap. She’s one of the many obstacles Trina and Spencer will face before they finally get together. And I’m here for it. It has the potential to be a slow moving, classic, soap love story. 

I’m impressed by Esme as well, which is why I really hope they don’t turn her into a psycho, but I think I know better lol 

The less said about Peter the better

She could be connected/related to Ryan. It does seem like she could be after Ava for her own personal reasons. And is using Spencer's issues with her to help push along her plans.

I also agree with the comments that the actress that plays Esme is decent. She's not bad and I do think she could end up giving us some entertaining scenes. I do believe she really will go off the deep end though, especially when she realizes how much Spencer cares for Trina and is not as dedicated as continuing revenge against Ava as she would want him to be.

I'm going to have to give credit where credit is due.

 

Cam M is definitely channeling Drew. From wardrobe (back in the John Doe days so good team!) to his attitude to his general body language. He's screaming Drew Cain. At least from what I remember of him since I didn't watch the whole time when Billy M was in the role. And I thought I would dislike it, but...nope. I don't mind at all. 

 

OH LORD!!!! CARLY IS ON THE LOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But GO OFF ON NIKOLAS!!!

 

That said...I loved the whole Spencer/Nik/Laura/Kevin confrontation scenes. Kevin having Spencer's back with his therapist know-how. Laura being Laura. I saw a bit of both sides. And then Ava calling about the car fire. There was just layers and there was so much chemistry among all the players. 

 

At the mob meeting and I kinda wish Jason would just 'Jason' all of these bosses.

 

And ugh at the Nelle lookalike. 

 

Honorable mention: Laura/Kevin meeting the bodyguard, thinking it's Spencer's bodyguard when it was JOSS was a hilarious little moment. 

 

And thinking about it...Did Ingo seem off in his scene with Laura where Carly confronts him. Trouble in RL?

At this point he's just making matters worse for him and bringing more attention to himself. 

I look forward to Jax's departure onscreen

 because I know he's going to keep up with the twitter shenanigan's. 

I'm still in disbelief they placed Tristan Rogers in time out for something smaller.

Last night I was thinking why does GH has such a large amount of dead wood. Other than Frank's incompetence, I wonder if the show is just setting up a catastrophic event down the road to take out some of these useless characters that we've in the very least grown to tolerate (or like).
 

But aside from that random thought; Jax and Willow would be the PERFECT characters to have caught in mob crossfire, the repercussions would be fascinating to watch.

Yeah, I hate his "thanks for the press" comments. What an asshat.

Not that it's necessarily a huge deal to me but I had kind of wondered about Marcus Coloma. I know Maura is vaccinated, but I don't think we've ever seen Nikolas and Ava kiss. It's always a fade to black thing. So I had thought that maybe he's antivax and thus they won't let him do any intimate scenes on the show. 

I guess the actor who plays Blando liked it too? Makes sense, Blando/Sasha got a fade to black kiss/love scene too.

    • I really have no problem with Kai as a character or with the actor. The problem is putting together two very nice people -- Kai and Trina. Neither of them has a bad side, neither of them has a devil on the shoulder, neither of them is impulsive. I think that's a problem in a soap relationship. Yeah, I agree. All this freaking out might make sense if Lulu wanted to do a tabloid expose on BLQ's LOVE CHILD. We have no indication that's the case.  
    • So Sonni would have somebody to talk to who she wasn't conspiring with (Will or Alan)? Alex kept telling Sonni how important her friends were...when she had virtually no friends. Instead they created loyal servants like Jane and Vera to give Alex people to play off of. They did that with Iris on AW, but Vivien was mostly there for comic relief Alex keeping Marah's paternity a secret was absurd. But I still love the scene between Alex and Alan where he convinces her by reminding her how they protected each other from their abusive father. Chris and Bev ATE that scene. Unfortunately, that took place only a few months before he exited the show...always thought they could have built on that, explored more how being Brandon's children screwed them both up. Maybe even used it as an explanation for the way their relationship could constantly swing from hatred to love. Instead of it being merely dictated by the plot.
    • The first one is Cass Winthrop dressed as Krystle Lake on Another World (not from his original creation of the character to hide from the loan shark Tony the Tuna, but at a romance convention trying to find out what had happened to Felicia who was missing). The second one is also Another World, Jake McKinnon as Doris although I don't recall what his purpose was.
    • I know there was one brief scene in the summer of 1989 where Lillian did mention Calla.. but in relation to her past relationship to Ross and it was to Roger while he was a patient at Cedars.  I think he was trying to pump her for information on Ross.. and for some reason, Calla's name came up.   I could see perhaps Beth mentioning that her mother Lillian was visiting Calla.. but not exactly giving any sort of details as to the going ons in Calla's life off screen.
    • Mac Scorpio and Kevin Collins, GH

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
