Isn't that where Britt's picture is?

[dragonflies]

I think it was Britt

[titan1978]

Oh thanks. Britt? They are actually putting photos up for people still alive in real life? That’s kind of tacky.

I think the audience knows that wall is for people that are actually gone.

[Contessa Donatella]

Uh, reel vs. real? The character, Britt, hospital Admin. is dead. 

[dragonflies]

It's for the people on the SHOW who have died, not just in real life

[titan1978]

Yes I know, and I think it’s tacky to put photos up for people that died in a storyline and their performer is still living. Surrounded by beloved performers that have actually died.

And yet, it’s filled almost exclusively with the photos of actual dead people. I had no idea they were putting people like Britt up there.

[Khan]

I agree.

Alan Quartermaine has been on the wall for years, but Stuart Damon died in 2021.

[Liberty City]

Yup. That's true. And the others were not added until their characters died, as well (ie: Epiphany).

The way the past few episodes were handled, via cast, was beautiful.

[Khan]

I agree.

I concede that, Rick Webber/Chris Robinson as well. But Alan was a huge loss to the show, and Rick was at least a major character for a decade.

I even enjoyed Britt. I will forever think it is tacky for her to be there next to all of the other folks on that wall now that I know it is her.

Well it was neither Jason, nor Luke.  The contact was someone we hadn't seen before.

The entire multinational search/rescue/relocation of the trafficked woman (USA, Netherlands, Canada, USA) by Felicia and Carly.... took place over several Port Charles days... but within the single episode January 11th. (At the end Maxie asked Felicia if she was tired from her days of travelling and Felicia said no).

They made it sound yesterday like a longterm storyline was coming -- and it was -- but it was all within a single episode.  

I don't care that it was fanciful or maybe implausible.  It was beautiful and poignant because of the ....
NO SPOILERS wait til you watch it, it will make sense 

This episode was me just suspending belief, not worrying about details, and just being in the moment and watching, and feeling amazement and appreciation ... due to well... no spoilers.

Same; it was those kind of moments when I can suspend belief and just... exist because of how beautiful it is.

[Contessa Donatella]

Just saw Edward.
