In regards to the age of the actress that's now playing Jordan, I looked her up and several sites have different birth years listed for her. Some say she was born in 1981 and some say 1985. IMDB currently has 1981, but that's user edited. Wikipedia currently has no birth year listed, but that's also user edited and looking at the editing history, the users couldn't agree on her age as there has been editing wars there for years with people switching back and forth between 1981 and 1985. Google has 1985, however that scrapes information from other websites and doesn't do any fact checking.

With all of this conflicting information, it's possible that the actress never actually disclosed her age and has chosen not to go public with it. Some actors and actresses like to keep their personal lives to themselves. Especially models/actresses since ageism still exists in show business. But let's say 1981 is the correct birth year for her, well at least we have an actress that's at least 40 now playing Jordan.

I'd also like to mention that whenever there's an age dispute, the majority of the time the older age ends up being the correct one.

What's with the blocking/editing by GH?  Why is she shown so close to the target?

They should have shown Anna F'ing Devane standing at the far wall of the room and throwing that axe from all the way across the room to get that bullseye.

I can only imagine how it would look if GH and Frank Valentini were to follow GL/Ellen Wheeler's example and tape everything on location in Mendocino.

Frank and his knack for budgeting is definitely the reason. The budget is also pretty good considering the economics of running a soap. Considering the set was used for three purposes, and can be used for future purposes, it's a great idea to have it where characters can socialize with each other. The team at GH is solid despite gripes about the writing and the bloated cast.

I think financially he is the only reason the show is still running. Frank has always been good at that (and the show looks better now, it must be said, than it did for much of the 2010s where everything was steel-gray). That doesn't mean I think creatively it's very good.

Agree.  At the moment, there's nothing wrong with GH's production values.  (The sets could be less generic-looking...but I could say that about most shows on television today).  The pieces are there for a good show.  GH just needs to trim the fat, cast-wise, and bring in a HW who knows how to write more gripping plots.  (It says too much that the denouement to the Peter August saga is the most exciting thing to have happened on that show in years.)

Oh, and Frank needs to stay the hell out of the writers' room, too.

    • Even if you put the rape and the fact he was married to her sister for so long, it's a bit hard for me to buy EJ/Belle have strong feelings for one another.  They've known one another for years and years and there was never any indication they were attracted to each other until recently.  Then the first time they hooked up EJ immediately dumped her, went on to marry Nicole and steal her own brother's baby, then slept with Gabi.  I don't see any appeal for Belle here outside the obvious. I do think MM and DF have nice chemistry though. On a different note, what is on Belle's shirt?  Are they people running, crawling, riding bikes, in wheelchairs, all of the above?  The shirt is so distracting.  Worn on TV wasn't much help as I still couldn't get a close up picture.
    • Kimmer had her fans (and she is a very good actress...) but most of them were "fanatics" like Brad Cole fans..she could take a crap in the middle of the Peapack Park Gazebo and Fran from Iowa would be posting how she "Knocked it out of the ballpark this time." It also didn't help that most of the show post Rauch was geered toward giving Kimmer story, no matter how dumb it was, so the rest of the vets sat around.  Its sad..as Kimmer is a good actress and Reva..Real Post Death Reva is a good character, but taken in small doses in an ensemble..and her fans could never stand (nor could Kim)unless she is front and center. Both she and Deas were so much better subtle actors as support (Reva was actually tolerable and rootable again when she was supporting others stories.)   LOL..Kimmer would still find a way to chew the scenery..can it be a weird, Dreaming Death type plague that hits Buzz too?

    • I find it pretty fascinating how polarizing the Reva character is. It seems like most folks on here aren't her biggest fan, but then on YouTube where I watch some of these episodes, the majority of comments/commentary made are on Reva episodes, promoting how wonderful she is and how much Annie sucks. I guess that's a good thing, gets people talking/debating the show.
    •   I agree with both of these takes.  I have no problem with a person being horny and trying to justify it to themself with whatever rationale. I just can't believe there's any deep emotional love to what Belle is feeling about EJ I had no problem with Abigail lusting after EJ -- at first. The horniness was fun in the first encounter.  But I disliked how the show wrote later on ... as if Abigail was catching feelings.  
    • Is that recent? She looks good. I like her social media posts about her animals and things. Someone was trying to give her crap about her relationship with Andy Gibb and the drug issues. And she replied, “You didn’t know us. You didn’t know what was in our hearts. Tread lightly on broken dreams.” Classy way to shut someone down.
    • Welcome back, Will and Eric!  They were both used so well today. I’m so glad that they’re going to be here for Marlena and everybody. She definitely needs them. And I love that we got a flashback of Will and John, and that Will credits him as the reason that he’s so courageous. Hopefully, he has scenes with Arianna coming up, and possibly Doug III. I think there’s a storyline there, especially considering what Will said about her being so stubborn and also a little similar to John. Btw, even though Chandler Massey is technically old enough to have an 18 year old child, he definitely doesn’t look it lol  And we got a Will and Paul reunion too. It really is too bad that we can’t get them full time. There’s still so much drama that can be mined from the two of them, and their relationships with Sonny and Andrew, especially now. But with Leo still slithering around, I guess it’s for the best that we’re not getting that

        And I love that Will was there for Johnny too. We never really got to see their relationship on screen and I’m glad that we got some of it today. I wish their scenes had been a little longer though. There’s a lot more that they need to discuss about EJ and the rape. But I like that Will comforted him about whether or not he was worthy of having John’s name. And that Marlena was able to shrink him about leaving EJ in the square after he fell.  Eric’s reunion with everybody was really sweet too. I loved the dorky family moment Belle is still being a total douche but I like the drama of her storyline. And I do think that she isn’t being completely stupid, when it comes to EJ. I’m glad that she has Brady though, who was also used very well today. He was breaking my heart in the scene where he was at John’s bedside.  And, congratulations EJ. I think lol  But I have to say, all this talk about John’s miraculous recovery is a little tough to here And, the final scene with John and Marlena
    • Reva should have had a stroke...leaving her permanently MUTE.  Not able to utter a single sound, not even the slightest blubber or gurgle.
