Not seen today’s episode yet (only up to yesterday), but a few things that kinda excite me:

  • So glad they found a way to get Alexis out of prison. I’m now looking forward to her interactions with Valentin again (to find out that he is her cousin, no less), and especially to her finding out that Victor is indeed alive and in Port Charles - would just be really cool to see Alexis in an actual Cassadine-focused storyline again.
  • Also, future Alexis/Olivia scenes will be fascinating. I wonder how Olivia will feel about Alexis being out so early.
  • Loved Jason and Drew brainstorming and figuring out the brainwashing triggers. SB and CM actually have good rapport as brothers.
  • It didn’t escape me during the Sonny/Nina scenes at Charlie’s that they purposely did not have Phyllis and Shawn cross paths - I still reckon there’s a connection between the two.

Wonder what today’s episode will bring…

Today's episode had excellent scenes between Sonny and Nina. First-rate work by CW and a performance by MB that wasn't phoned in. Strong chemistry here. I don't know where this is leading, whether Sonny wants to sleep with her or if he is setting her up. He did say "Nina has to pay" soon after he returned to PC, but it's unclear if that is now the goal.

Chase wears that Jason Morgan black tee well. Explain to me how Liz is looking at Finn when Chase is right there. Lawdy...

Why is Brooklyn wearing a blazer at a night club? Come on.

Michael and Willow are cringe. Willow wanted to get up on the table to let everyone know how much she loves Michael? WTF.

The Joss and Cam stuff was kind of awkward to watch, lol. I kind of had to peek through my fingers when they were lying on the couch making out. I cringed when Joss said "something is poking me" even though it ended up being a spoon. LOL. Their conversation afterward was nice though. I'm glad that Josslyn realized she only wanted sex because Esme got into her head. Cam is a sweetie pie. He's totally gonna get with Esme though.

I zone out whenever Austin is on screen.

I'm all in for Sonny/Nina.

We actually had to sit through that musical act. WTF?

While Chase is attractive I think on paper he is way too young for Liz is seen as Cam’s mom.  I do not want to end up with a plot where everyone went after Liz for dating someone so much younger than her and shaming her. I can see certain characters being judgmental in that way especially since Chase was with Nelle and Willow both of whom are much younger than Liz. I can see Carly making comments about the age difference. 
 

Brooklyn is supposed to be like her aunt and we are to believe all she does is scheme and work so she only needs power suits in her wardrobe. I am only being slightly sarcastic.

Liz looks so young though that she and Chase would look appropriate together. I don't need a full blown romance. Just a one-night stand or maybe an ongoing affair.

She's getting with the wrong brother. Plus I'm just tired of Chase being written like a monk. That man should be in love scenes on a daily basis. Liz needs some fun too, and Finn ain't it. I know Chase and Liz won't happen, but I can dream. They'd be so pretty...

The soapyness of Smina is great but I know they will not allow Carly to really take Sonny's foul ass to task so I'm not interested.  As long as Benard has influence over how Sonny is written and how much he will suffer consequences, Sonny will forever be trash!  Freeing Carly is all I care about.

Lol!  Freeing Sonny from Carly works for me, so I suppose we are on the same team.  I am here for Sonny/Nina, but I don't think Carly is innocent with her Jason love.  Anyhow, they are both kind of trash people and I am ready for Carson to end.  They are so boring.

CarSon needs to be killed with fire and never revisited, no matter how boring Sonny's pairing gets.  The moment Benard and his love interest becomes a snooze fest, they pull LW back into that black hole.  

As for Carly, I think she is going thru thru the motions and doing what is best for Sony because that's all CarSon is ever about, what's best for Sonny.  She'd rather been with Jason.  I'm over that too!  It's Nina's turn to watch him, but I don't even dislike her enough to wish Sonny on her.

Carson is totally the blackhole pairing we get when another Sonny love interest fails.  I am sure it has some fans, but it's clearly such a default pairing that it's not even funny.

I don't like Nina and I am fine with her taking her turn with Sonny.  At least there is something somewhat different about this pairing from other wash, rinse, repeat Sonny romances.  

Just bring back Brenda and call it a day with Sonny.  You don't even need to bring back VM just have Sonny travel to Rome and be gone lol.

That Disney+ Jungle Cruise product placement they threw into the Trina and Esme scene was so awkward. And Esme’s “our plans are the opposite of yours” had a weird sexual implication. But happy to see Esme in a ponytail again. 

Is there anyone who supports and thinks Olivia is acting rationally? Yet another dumb plot.

    • the tweet linked to https://www.forbes.com/sites/marcberman1/2025/05/02/ruth-buzzi-dies-the-rowan--martin-laugh-in-star-was-88/ That Forbes account of Ruth Buzzi said she'd had Alzheimer's for 10 years? -- they are quoting her facebook as saying that. But her facebook says this: Ruth Buzzi  July 24, 1936 – May 1, 2025 Ruth Buzzi died peacefully in her sleep at home in Texas. She was in hospice care for several years with Alzheimer’s disease. Memorial arrangements by Lacy Funeral Home, Stephenville, Texas to be announced.

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
