In all fairness, if I can play Devil's advocate, why are people tweeting AT GALEN that they dislike his character? How rude.
Tweet what you want - people are entitled to dislike the character and criticize an actor and say so on social media - but if you are going to tag Galen in your negative opinions, then frankly I would block you too just because you don't understand basic Twitter etiquette.
You wouldn't walk up to an actor and tell him: "Your character sucks. He is so boring". So why do people think it is OK to do online?
Share your opinion on your timeline but if you go out of your way to make the actor see it and potentially hurt their feelings by tagging him, then you don't get to clutch your pearl when the actor is like "No thanks" and blocks you.
If you can't be nice, why is it so hard to at least not send negativity and hatred towards people who are simply doing their job and doing their best to entertain you? Even if they fail at it, why be mean at fellow human beings for no reason?

Here for the Johnny/Tripp rivalry. That quad continues to be the best storyline on the main show.

I like Xander and Gwen, but they were creepy af today, talking about ways people would want to kill Julie. 

And, I will forever believe that it was not Chad's conversation with EJ that made him go see Abigail, but that it was the experience that he had in Phoenix with Will, Sonny and Leo that did it.

Thursday was so boring! Why would they feature so many boring stories on one day? At least Bonnie wasn't on I guess. I like Eli but his little chats with Rafe about Rafe's love life are so lame. Nobody cares about Rafe/Nicole/Ava. Rafe is really staring at a selfie of him and Nicole with that damn bear. Get Nicole out of this mess and put her in more scenes with EJ.

I agree with whoever said that it's time to dump Gabi and Jake. I don't even need them dumped as characters necessarily - just as a couple. They don't work for me and never have. They suck. Jake had those scenes with Ava recently - let's explore that. Gabi can have a story with an upgraded Sonny and Will when they hopefully return

Chloe/Brady/Philip is so damn stale. It feels like the same scene over and over again.

Abe and Paulina talking about marriage. Okayyy. Oh, they're in love. K.

Xander and Gwen's foreplay is talking about ways to kill Julie. What the heck LOL

Having read SSH's SOD interview about the Doug story I am more postive about the story.

Doug/Bill is 96 years old FGS. I am sure he is finding it harder to act, especially on the fast paced way Days is taped. So they are setting it up that perhaps Doug is slowing down and needs care. That way he can be offscreen and viewers can be assured Doug/Bill is being well cared for. Some scenes for Julie that reflect how hard this is for a partner. Julie can keep appearing as Susan seems fighting fit. And I think it would be great for Susan to know she has a place to go to.

I think  this is better than seeing Bill ailing onscreen as we saw with Frances Reid, as that was quite distressing, or Doug suddenly passing away when Bill does (hopefully not for a while).

    • The only blonde I see is one of the actual women staring at first & then screaming & running later.  DAYS: Vivian's manservant Ivan is in a long curly red wig.

      Y&R: long straight black wig is the actor Peter Barton whose character name I am blanking on.   
    • I very much liked office Cleary and the actress who portrayed her (as you say, Mary Peterson).  A shame her turn didn't evolve into a contract role.   BTW, does anyone know the timeframe/years that Betty Rae served as casting director?  If i understand correctly, she not only led the effort for contract roles, but also for shorter 13- and 26-week roles.  IMO, GL had LOTS of very well-casted, limited roles, too. I'm surprised the actors throughout the soap industry, and especially P&G actors, have not assembled a book or something similar, praising Rae.  Each actor could write a few paragraphs or a page of text describing his or her experience.
    • No. Ruth had an extramarital affair with David while married to Joe.
    • I'm not sure I agree with Bernstein's children on that. Bernstein's life and activism here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Bernstein#Social_activism_and_humanitarian_efforts
    • Thursday & Friday's episodes were excellent. The build-up was most definitely worth the wait (2 months). TMG, I can't give her enough accolades. AM, was also absolutely incredible. I think the fallout is going to have a ripple effect. The little clues that have been dropped,  hopefully, will weave seamlessly to reveal even bigger bombshells for the Dupree's and Martin.
    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews.   
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archived copy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
