But leave it to DAYS to get rid of the guy the week he does his best acting.

He's been so below average for so long, and then those therapy scenes with Marlena show up -- and he was more than believable. He made me care about the character beyond the pretty face.

Two days later, Ron C kills him off. Because of course he does.

I think Li's murder will probably stick.  I really don't see any reason to bring him back.  He's barely connected to anyone on the canvas especially with the upcoming exits.  I am interested in who killed him because he was so random and I don't even know who would care enough to kill him.  I don't even believe Gabi cared enough to kill him lol

I hope they don't leave the phonecall to Gabi as a loose end.  Why did Li call Gabi to say that stocks were fake, if the board had already certified the vote?  It seems like a red herring to suggest that Li setup Gabi.  But how could someone stab themselves in the back?

For tomorrow's anniversary I turned to Maureen Russell's book & wrote about the beginning of the show. I was going for "feel good", great memories, what a legacy, yeah, I held it together until I was pleased with the words & added a picture from the first episode & then sent it on its way & then I just felt so let down.  What we have now is so fracking far away from their dream that it was like being gut-punched. OOF!

I just checked the records, and we've had one birth and two weddings on the actual November 8 episodes:

Birth # 3. 11/8/68 (Episode # 758): Michael Horton.

Wedding # 113. 11/8/11 (Episode # 11711): Victor/Maggie. 
Wedding # 129. 11/8/18 (Episode # 13465): John/Marlena.

The only other birth or wedding to take place between November 6 and November 10 is

Wedding # 99. 11/9/07 (Episode # 10695): EJ/Sami.

Happy 58th Anniversary, Days!!! 

I liked John/Marlena today. It’s always nice to see a couple just be sweet and romantic with one another. And I loved the gift that Eric and Brady got them. I did chuckle a little bit when John mentioned supply chain issues; goes to show you how far back this was written lol 

Glad that Steve realized that Konstantin is full of crap. I wouldn’t mind him and Kayla becoming a part of this storyline. 

Still not feeling EOB as Theresa though. She seems to come off more like a drunk trophy wife as opposed to the Theresa that we’ve always seen. And is she ever gonna have a scene with her son?

And what was going on with Xander’s hair? It almost looked like a toupee that got caught in the wind

    • Thank you. You guys come to the rescue again. I'll take a look later.   Thank you for the info!!! Now I find myself less confused. You and @DRW50 are amazing.
    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
