I loved Greta too. Julianne Morris was always very likeable. I wish they had made John her father, looking back.

 

Good to hear. Looking forward to it. I didn't post much about Episode 2 but it was fine. The Golden Girls auction rip-off was entertaining.

She really was.

 

Ugh. Don't remind me. They built that up over such a long period of time and then...NOTHING. If I remember it correctly, I always thought she played it like she was lying, but still...it's been a long time so I am probably not remember it right.

I liked JM/Greta too.  I feel like she got stories, but was still underdeveloped.  We never even got to know who her father was and that's was half her purpose on the show.  It wouldn't bother me now if John was her dad, but during that time the whole Greta/Gina/John stuff was so unpopular-I think the show just decided to leave it alone.

 

I just think it would have been a less clunky way to introduce Billie to Ben.  Like Ciara could have said she was married to my father and is the mother of my sister Chelsea and Billie could have mentioned Kate.  Chelsea is more recent than Greta and Ben should be aware of all Ciara's siblings, but maybe not lol.

Sonny and Will apparently got that small apartment of theirs because of it's enormous shower!

I remember that! Marlena was soo suspicious. 

 

So I also remember that last talk right then. I just always felt JM played it like she was lying. As if Greta felt the best thing to do at that time was to keep it to herself. Though I wondered why since Greta's thoroughline outside of Princess Gina was that she wanted to know who her father was. Then she was gone.

Lord unpopular opinion but I liked Princess Gina though the storyline did play out waaaaaay too long. 

 

Lol. I just said that re: Greta's purpose. Great minds. It was a shame she was gone. She could have been a heroine in the making.

Okay, yes, now I remember that.  In her final convo with John she said she knew who her father was, but it wasn't John.   She did play it like she could have been lying and just left it alone for the sake of John and his family.  So you are right.  I guess at the time I assumed she'd be back and reveal the truth and I eventually forgot about it.

I was thinking broader as in her whole time on the show she was lying.  I remember she used to hang around John all the time and Marlena would get soo annoyed.

Beyond Salem is so much better than what's airing on the main show currently. I was actually excited to sit down and watch this today.

"Shane Donovan, ISA." "Listen, if something's wrong with one of my tax returns..." "What does ISA stand for? Ignorant stupid ass?" OMG, I love Paulina. Can she and Leo have a scene? They'd be a riot together.

I haven't felt anything toward Will/Sonny in ages, but they're totally rejuvenated with Zack Tinker in the role. The shower scene was hot. No more stupid chin kisses for these boys. Leo came in a little too soon, but I love him anyway. Will look so horrified when he walked in, haha. Three gays naked in the shower and Leo talking about Will's dick. Can you imagine how the Karens would react if this aired on TV during their afternoon brunch? I loved every second of these scenes! Sonny's shirt was very unfortunate though.

Yesterday people were commenting on Billy Flynn's ass, and now it was actually mentioned on the show today. Ha! I love thirsty Leo. He has me laughing constantly. I could watch a spinoff with just the four boys.

I'm loving Anna and this is just making me wish she got more airtime on the main show.

No Ben/Ciara today was just icing on the cake.

Such a great review/post.  I was one who mentioned Billy's ass. Shocking right?

  I mean considering the last shot of yesterday episode was Chad picking up Leo's suitcases but totally focused on his ass.

I need to see this episode again.

      You're really in for it, because those rants continue for 3 episodes. I was struck by how ho-hum those cliffhangers were. It was like the writers ran out of gas.

      Thank you for the clarification, but Susan didn't name her child after David.  It was Julie who named her son David.   And how/when was Susan's son killed?  And didn't Susan kill David Martin and stand trial for his murder?

      DAYS/GH: RIP Denise Alexander

      By titan1978 · Posted

      I truly wish we could see more of her work on DAYS. And more of her early stuff on GH, but at least we know that Corday’s DAYS vault is virtually complete, especially compared to GH. Lesley was a pivotal character. I think the scenes with the confrontation with Monica are so good because there is a lot of character in those lines and performances. Monica is ferocious, desperate. And Lesley is not a victim, she holds her own and calls Monica out, playing her own form of anger. Evenly matched. Soap confrontations have largely forgotten that both sides should be evenly matched, even if someone has wronged another. To me, that scene is easily in my soap hall of fame. They didn’t make enough of her return, which has always bothered me. I would have loved for her to end up vying for control of the hospital when Alan was incapacitated by drugs, helping him through that crisis and finding herself at odds with Monica again on a different level, not as romantic rivals. She had such a long career! Acting in radio shows as a little kid, through her GH spots as few years ago. That’s quite a ride.

      Damn I was hoping Lesley would be at Monica's memorial  Hoping GH gives Lesley an on screen memorial

      Today's episode was serviceable, but the cliffhangers were disappointing!

      I just got to the first set of Dante ranting at Gio episodes and I really need him to shut the hell up. Gio literally was at the party with people his own age and didn’t even know Dante’s kid snuck out to a party. Talking about I could charge you for serving a minor? This is just really stupid writing.

      Back up a bit. Susan & Julie were best friends. Tom thought David too old for Julie & forbade her to see him. They continued but they had to sneak around.  So they couldn't always get together when they wanted to. One of THOSE nights David got drunk. At the same time for different reasons Susan had a huge fight with her parents, slammed out the door & went & also got drunk. David & Susan comforted each other & things took their usual course From that one  drunken night, Susan got pregnant. The 3 made a joint decision. He would marry her to give the child his name & then they would divorce. Is it any wonder this did not go according to plan. Bill Bell wrote this. So best friends became bitter enemies.   I am the exception because I had no problem suspending my disbelief to go along with the LaSalles. I love Marisa as much as I loved Mary. Reginald, always a problem to me, And, Robert Hogan had to be Vince. WhIle I'm at it I am glad that didn't do anything with making Scott a triplet.
