While I would love that, it would defeat the purpose [in my head] of Selina having female lovers... and one of them being Ms. Kristina Corinthos-Davis. Haha. I know Lydia Look is up for the idea of Ms. Wu having female companions, so I wouldn't want her being the one against Terry being trans... maybe her father, though?

I have always suspected that Rory is working in cahoots with Selina. That's how she knew to go to Curtis and offer help re: Trina. Rory is her inside person.

According to Marcus Coloma, he is back airing next week... a.k.a. Adam Huss is not on long enough!

MC's Nik always seems so dumb.  I like the recast.  

Am I the only one who finds Nina to be the most annoying character on the show currently?  There are a lot of characters I dislike, but I cannot stand Nina and her stupid assumptions and just her in general.   I know she's not the worst character on this show by far, but I find her to be so grating.

Also if Sonny is going to be on everyday I need him to do something.  I swear he's been sitting at table waiting for Nina for 3 episodes and last week he was wandering around the hospital for like 2 episodes acting like Gossip Girl over Willow/TJ.  I can't believe I am advocating for a "Sonny" storyline, but since he is going to be on regardless give him something to do besides taking up space.

-- I have to agree about Sonny. MB should be EMBARRASSED to be this supposedly powerful figure who says things like "Want to see our new club kitchen?" so Frank can show off his new hallway set.

-- The actress playing Esme showed her limits today, I'm afraid. That crying thing at the end of the show was hard to watch.

-- Selina Wu? Let me repeat: that low, monotone voice is annoying as hell and doesn't make her seem more powerful. Just a bad actor choice.

I agree with all of that. The fact is that the Nell actress is FAR better than this Esme actress.

I just don't even understand why Sonny's on most episodes.  He doesn't do anything of importance.  I swear he spent 3 full episodes listening to Nina's dumb assumptions about things.  MB/Sonny isn't everyone's fave, but he deserves more than that.

Selina Wu's monotone voice annoys me too lol.  Is it supposed to be sinister?

I have always felt Esme and Nelle were almost the same character and Esme has none of the spark CL's Nelle did.

Obviously a Brenda return would be ideal in my world.  It's been clear for a few years that would be the next logical arc for Sonny.  But FV apparently hates VM/Brenda or something lol.  CW/MB do have decent chemistry, but they don't have a compelling story at all.  I much prefer Carly/Sonny contained together, but the show seems to be able to give Carly different things to do and seem to be at a loss with Sonny.  I wouldn't be against resting Sonny for a bit, but MB is on 4 times a week so he might as well not be wasting my time.

    • Sorry, I don't know the non-AW ones. In addition to the 2x Cass disguised himself as Krystle (1984 to hide from Tony Jones, 1994 investigating Felicia's disappearance), there was one occasion in October 1987 where Cass imposter Rex Allingham dressed as a woman and, claiming to be Nicole's Aunt Blanche, disrupted her date with another man. (At the time I don't think the audience yet knew that it wasn't Cass.)
    • THANK YOU SO MUCH. If there was any way we could sticky this post or make it so we don't forget where it is. I'm going to bookmark it for sure! AND WOW... Season 15 - nearly a whole month of skipped episodes. LOL.   
    • JFP was only as strong as her writers, which is why her output got worse and worse when she decided she was the only writer anyone needed. They could have easily had a decent short-term story with Lando - maybe cast him as a terminal patient at Cedars, or a long-lost Bauer or Reardon who would leave town after his story is done and possibly return at a later date with a recast. He might become close to Ed and Michelle, similar to how Ed had taken Kelly under his wing years earlier. Maybe he could have been tied to Maureen's death, somehow - maybe we'd learn, after he ingratiated himself to everyone in Springfield, that he accidentally ran Maureen off the road during the storm. And when he realizes this he would, in shame, leave town, maybe leaving some Springfield lady devastated if they were about to get married (this could have worked with a better Mindy recast, or maybe a brand new character).
    • Notes I've made of skipped or faulty YouTube episodes are (I'll put in brackets the faulty ones, the rest are skipped episodes), that would be amazing if they could be replaced by higher quality Netherlands copies when they become available:

      S13: 3170, 3172, 3181 (faulty), 3203 (faulty), 3223 (faulty), 3255, 3278 (faulty), 3345, 3361 (faulty) S14: 3399, 3455 (faulty), 3479 (faulty), 3509 (faulty), 3555 (faulty end credits), 3580, 3600 (faulty), 3613 (faulty) S15: 3658 (faulty), 3667, 3668, 3669, 3670, 3674, 3678, 3679, 3681, 3682, 3684, 3685, 3686, 3690, 3692, 3694, 3696, 3697, 3699, 3709 S16: 4058, 4059, 4109 S17: 4137, 4194, 4262, 4284, 4358, 4362, 4371 S18 so far skipped: 4450, 4451. There may be further S18 episodes to replace in English if there are any further skips on YouTube, as many episodes from this season are just in German in the vault, and if they skip those, then we probably have to wait for an eventual Netherlands airing unless someone currently has them in English (currently the German ones needing to replace to full English for S18 are: 4477, 4485, 4486, 4492, 4493, 4494, 4497, 4514, 4515, 4518, 4520, 4522, 4523, 4524, 4526, 4531, 4538, 4541, 4575, 4612 - hopefully YouTube will not skip these, and they won't be a problem to fix). Also, jumping ahead a bit to future seasons, but does anyone have full English speaking copies of any of 4852, 4897, 5275, 5308, 5590, 5591, 5594 (as these are not in full or at all in English in the vault as far as I can tell)? Many thanks if you do! A million thank yous to all Angels helping out with these. 
    • Thanks.

    • I found the reference in the AWHP synopses -- it was 1995 but not directly related to the loanshark.

    • One of the dumbest situations (Lando) ever. What audience member is going to invest in a storyline with a recast they don't like and a triangle where one character is short-term? It bombed as it should have done. So much of JFP's tenure just reeks of desperation. I don't get how someone could produce SB (which did have flaws but was often brilliant) but make so many terrible mistakes at GL.   I still think JFP would have worked better as a director and music supervisor. Her music work at SB was top notch.  It just seems that Rea was minimized during JFP's tenure because I can't imagine her okaying so many of these casting choices.

    • We see the same with GH, where Mark Teschner, the casting director, reportedly has less say since Frank Valentini took over. Some producers want to take over every aspect of their shows.  I think Lando may have been a CBS push.
