I have big issues with MB as an actor, as a celebrity, as a bipolar & in running his little fiefdom "State of Mind". People practically have to have the same experiences he has had for him to acknowledge them as valid. Don't get me wrong. He's bipolar but I believe he is bipolar with rage & that is no way a large part of the population of bipolars. And, even besides being bipolar it is a crying shame that he does such a power trip on younger actors.  What's great is when vets will be mentors to kids. Of course, I would have issue with him no matter what because of the way I feel about Sonny & the Port Chuck mob. Not a fan. I sat & cringed when he did the podcast with Tyler Christopher. Excuse me for jumping in.

I think MB is too busy blocking people who called him out on being a huge ass. I included him on a couple tweets where I told him what I thought of his disrespect for others while demanding devotion and deference. Took him about an hour to block me. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Is it about Chavez?  That's where my mind went, but I wasn't sure. 

As far as Mo, I think he is just kind of a jerk lol.  I think the podcasts are okay and informative, but he tends to make everything come back to him.  His book was the same way.  He said and did awful things to people and while he seems remorseful, it just comes off as very egocentric.  I don't think he's a bad person or even trying to be.  I just think he's got a huge ego.  For the most part, he seems to get along with most of the cast and a lot of people speak highly of him.   I do know I like MB more than most on here.  I think he really does just say stupid things sometimes.  Which isn't an excuse at all because it was an unnecessary comment to make in the first place.

The entire podcast is MB sucking his own dick and then watching his co-stars sop up the droppings. 

It's wild to see people praise him because he is NOT a good actor. He hasn't delivered a good performance in 20 years! He's lazy, he fumbles most of his lines, he looks utterly bored and he's lost all the charisma he used to coast on by. Can't stand him.

See ya, Brando. We'll miss you

I see there was more A.D.D in the writers room with Carly and the scorned angry wife/cemetery stuff. I'll never understand why the writing team always does this.

I won't really miss Blando, but the Brando/Sasha montage was well done. Outside of that...

Carly getting all feral on Peyton reminded me of pre-moss bowl Carly. Nice to see her defending Virginia (and Ruby the other day). Maybe she rode Peyton's broomstick from the cemetery to the bar!

I realize Brando wasn't a popular character who won't be missed (even though the actor is decent), but Brando is FAR down my list on things wrong with GH, including making an episode that should be about his death and Sasha into another showcase for Carly and Sonny.

Sonny always has to be around to dispense words of wisdom, giving us the meaning of it all, telling us how to feel and what to remember. It's effing sickening.

 

Also, the past few days with the Curtis/Jordan/Portia scenes have been horrendous. I mean, who has these discussions of "If not for the lies and deception and and wreckage in our marriage, would we still be together?"??? And "If not for all the lies she told you that killed your marriage, would you still love her?"? It's just ridiculous.

Why is Curtis asking these questions? Why is Portia? Why is Jordan? And why in hell would Jordan insist on protecting Aunt Stella, when these people should already know the kind of stuff she's always done and continues to do?

They're working overtime to give these people a storyline, but this isn't one.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.
