VERY HAPPY ABOUT THIS TOO!   That's why I put it in all caps, got to shout it since I'm so happy. I really hope no-one on GH is her mother, and I really don't care now that we ever know who her mother is.  If anyone, I'd pick Olivia Jerome, Jennifer Smith, Heather Webber or Julie Devlin from Port Charles as her mother.

Esme is driving so much fun story on this show.  Love seeing Ava & Nikolas' marriage exploding!  Can't wait to see who Esme's mother is and how Laura & Kevin get sucked into it the plot once Ryan finally escapes.  It'd be especially hilarious if somehow Ava ends up being Esme's mother

but there's a bunch of other possibilities given Ryan's sordid history.  I don't think they've even explained how Esme found out or knows for sure Ryan is her father?  She could end up being Kevin & Lucy's long lost kid, for all we know, once she inevitably reforms from being the show's primary young villain.

I don't know why anyone's surprised about the court case being a bore, I always expected it to be as boring as the last one on this show.  It's like the lowest-stakes, most convoluted things going to court ("revenge porn" being pinned on a heroine that'll get exonerated because there's such paper-thin evidence, "kidnapping" charged on another flawed heroine that didn't actually do any kidnapping and just withheld identifying information, and in both cases with the "victim" testifying for the defendant!  This show has the dumbest fictional prosecutors and judges for even allowing these meritless cases going to trial ).

Yeah, I don't get it. So much happens, but at the same time it seems so boring. They were all so good today, yet I felt I should have been glued to the TV more.

Thanks. That actually does sound familiar. I just wonder when that was to have happened.

Brando. TJ (ESPECIALLY!!! hehe). Cody. Dante (woof!). Someone is trying to get all the sauna time in as they can! I'm not complaining! lol.

 

Playing catch-up. The trial for Trina is off to a slow start and I want to shake Joss. 

 

I've been enjoying seeing the Rory/Trina/Spencer triangle develop. And I'm happy for that because now that Spencer saw Rory and Trina kiss, he's finally started to be more pro-active like how he was when he came back to town rather than a wounded puppy. Watching him vs Esme and I'm thinking FINALLY!!! When he was Ava's stalker, he was more cunning. And it's about time the writers remembered that as he presses Esme. 

 

Nina as owner of Metro Court. I bet Carly is PO.

 

Sad Laura is gone.  But...perfect time for the House of Cassandine to fall apart.

 

Yeeeah not feeling Britt/Cody. Too forced for me. And I still feel that the writers are going to tie Cody into a legacy family.

Who does this heffa think she's messing with? lol. 

 

Well, playing catch-up and it feels like...barring a trump card a la 90s Sami Brady...Esme is being written into a corner. I was at least expecting said trump card, but I saw the writing on the wall when all of a sudden Joss had scenes with Michael's mole. I was hoping in the fallout from Esme being exposed that she would be thrown in Joss/Cam's orbit, but it looks like she will be dead if anything.

 

I agree with who said it. The trial itself has been boring. But everything surrounding it to get to the truth has been good. Esme drugging the guy. Curtis on the case. How the whole thing is increasing the Spencer/Trina/Rory triangle. 

 

Outside of that, there is not really much B plot going on since Trina IS the A story and it's all over this week. I guess I could say the Carly/Sonny/Nina triangle...which appears to be more or less settled now with subplot complications here and there. 

 

And there's Britt/Cody. But I'm meh on that.

    • 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. Her family requests donating to Alzheimer’s research (www.alz.org) in lieu of flowers. https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid031y2oHoqXMuMCSZg1RToxEVH37UZCvGmrp6JhGBQXoGCv3X6mwouwxATxHF5PtvTJl  But she was tweeting a couple of years ago...  There's more info on @slick jones page here https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/55788-soap-hoppers-the-soap-actors-and-roles-thread/page/380/#comment-1869080 A few hours before her death was announced, her husband posted onto her facebook this: https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid02hxSLCXSKM62DHE72RFXeY8s8M4PXeAcDJGkhfnTLKVNVpZqSYmAREpr7W7RgDhUzl This is Ruth Buzzi‘s husband writing on her page.  She asked me to thank all of you for being so good to her for so many years.  She wants you to know she probably had more fun doing those shows than you had watching them.    Because of health issues, she’s must withdraw from writing, but she will still be reading and enjoying your posts.   If you've met Ruthie and had a picture taken with her, please post it below.   If you have a great memory from her career that you enjoyed — a special comedy sketch, or a moment that made you laugh — share that with us. Ruthie loves you. --------------
    • Link to the official announcement on her Facebook account: https://www.facebook.com/100052018909496/posts/pfbid031y2oHoqXMuMCSZg1RToxEVH37UZCvGmrp6JhGBQXoGCv3X6mwouwxATxHF5PtvTJl/?app=fbl
    • 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
