The character was definitely coded as gay, he's close to his mother, fascinated by jewelry, enjoys strapping guys to chairs, not married by 40, and, European (tee hee).

But, his prior flirtation with Billie and number of times that he's had sex with Gwen are definitely misleading.  I just hope that we are not being set up with a story of a straight man "pretending" to be gay in order to maintain his con.  Or, more regressive, a nefarious bisexual character who uses intimacy with either gender as a means to an end.  But, I wouldn't put anything past Jamey, whose knowledge of sexual liberation seems stuck in the first season of Queer Eye.

So Peter Porte lied in his live chat with Michael Fairman. He said his two romantic interests were not Gwen nor Leo. Not good lying to your fans.

Dimitri and Leo have zero chemistry. Ron Carlivati is continuing to shove Leo and Gwen down our throats.

 

 

 

 

And Greg Rikaart is not aging well.

Greg has zero sex appeal.

My guess is that, at the time of Beyond Salem, they thought Dimitri was only a one time thing so it didn’t matter that a gay actor was playing, more or less, a straight guy. But I knew that was gonna change now that he’s full time: Ron probably hates straight for pay as much as he hates male bisexuality

Which is why I think Dimitri’s gonna end up being gay, not bi.

But idk about Dimitri’s taste though. He had the dream come true that is Andrew Shawn Donovan as his hostage but yet he wants Leo??

I definitely got the sense from the kiss, only sprung when he had no other choice to keep Leo quiet, was meant to show he's a predatory bisexual. (unlike Leo who is predatory but good and right...just because). If they decide to keep him around he will probably be gay, just not as sympathetic as Leo because he's Ron's forever pet.

Those two waxwork faces rubbing together made me think less of chemistry and more of some homophobic joke in Team America. I kept waiting for projectile vomit.

Dimitri could've easily done a million other things to keep Leo quiet but instead kisses him. Yeah right whatever. Leo freaking out about the kiss made even less sense. He has been eyeing and harassing Dimitri since day one. Today he's going through his underwear drawer and smelling them.  So the ending made zero sense just like everything on this supposed soap.

Unpopular opinion (maybe), but I hope Leo rejects Dimitri in an effort to maintain his friendship with Gwen.  I enjoy Leo and Gwen's banter, and even a suspected mother-killer needs at least one alliance.  Although I don't understand why Gwen and Xander can't just be friends, she got over her crush on him rather quickly and their office animosity seems unjustified.

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
