Jordi? As Nikolas? Oh my 

Yeah I've seen more than one person suggest it

I guess they forget how blah he is as an actor lol

I agree Tyler shouldn't be back unless his sobriety and health are certain. I think Nick Stabile was a generic white suburban dad, he wasn't Nik to me at all. The new temp is a non-entity IMO. As long as it's not serial scammer Coltin Scott Stephen Martines I'm open!

Yeah, I guess I have been so disappointed in MC that I have lost the love for Nik.  Not even love, but actually caring about the character.  MC started off okay, but he's just not doing it for me and I don't think either sub is much worse than MC.  But to @Vee's point, a good recast could really change the trajectory of the character.  I suppose all he needs is to have good chem with MW and NC unless they are going the Nik/Liz route again, but I can't really tell what's going on there lol.

As I mentioned a few days ago, Nikolas's death could be good storywise for Ava and Spencer, because they would both be wealthy and it would motivate a further adversarial relationship with Victor.  Plus, having Spencer as the head of Wyndemere, while fighting Esme about the rightful heir, could be very Gossip Girl-esque.

But, it would be sad for the character of Laura to have lost two out of three of her kids (I know Lulu's not dead, but...)

Today was pretty good.

If the show had more episodes like today’s, it would be a lot more interesting. 

Idk if I like Ava being dumbed down so much, but MW really did kill it in her scenes today. 

They killed off Rory to drag out Spencer and Trina not touching each other for another 6 months. It's been a year and a half!

But, to bring it back to the other topic at hand, did Michael Kruse unfollow his co-stars on Twitter? 😉 (again, not that I know how or why to tell if a person unfollowed someone)

I think Spencer & Trina will solve the Hook Case

My prediction (without knowing any spoilers) is that the climax is all going to come out at the wedding, Trina's going to get hurt, she'll need blood, they'll need a relative and her father will be revealed

Just as Carly is going to find out that Willow's sick and she'll need to reveal who Willow's mother is in order to save her life.  It will be an obstacle in Carly's romance, because Drew will be mad that she kept the secret, and lead to a quad with Nina, Sonny, Carly and Drew, because somehow Nina and Drew will be drawn to each other in the crisis, and for whatever reason Sonny will understand Carly's predicament. 

Because in Port Charles a man can keep his identity, past marriages, and career a secret for years without consequence, but god forbid a woman holds an innocent confidence from her partner, then he will never trust her again.

I don't watch full episodes of this show but does it have two simultaneous stories of people terminal illnesses? I'm talking about Britt and Willow.

And how many maternity/paternity secrets do we have going on right now?

Technically, Britt's diagnosis is terminal and Willow is just being cautious about treatment for a potentially non-fatal illness due to her pregnancy.

To be fair, the story is set in a hospital where terminal illnesses are more commonplace; although IRL Huntington's Disease and Leukemia might not cause as much fainting as seems to happen to Britt and Willow.

When the writing is there, Jordi can be good. The problem is that the writing is rarely there on these shows, so you need someone who can compensate like Nicholas Chavez can. You need somebody who can bring what NC is bringing, which is a tall order because he’s brilliant.

When the writing is there Jordi can be very hot.  I’m not sure he has ever really blown me away as an actor.  But hot and charismatic can be fine on daytime, just not as Nikolas.  I always default to how much can they hold their own against Genie?  Because if she is on the show, that’s the baseline Nikolas needs to meet.

I thought he was good sometimes (if a bit raw) on GL and pretty consistently good on AMC. And he’s hot. I think he’d be motivated to step up with really good actors like he was opposite PAS, et al. But I think there could be better options out there.

This one took a bit longer to calculate but my count Esme, Cody, Trina, and Willow all have maternity/paternity secret stories at moment involving Ryan, Heather, Mac, Felicia, Nina, and Curtis.
