Yeah… the above picture is definitely saying something lol

I think we all knew that this was going to happen eventually. 

Hell, this wouldn’t have happened at all had it not been for the vaccine mandate. Kinda makes you wonder what Days would have been like.

Yikes. 

As you all have pointed out, Kelly doesn't even look happy by his return and who can blame her?! Sam was stuck in the mob rut for decades and she's finally managed to get the stench off of her in recent years with Dante. I imagine she is not thrilled to know that Sam will revert to Jason's sidekick/mob moll again. 

I say put him with Becky (Liz) at this point. She might be eager to work with Steve at this point, and it'll save her from that dreadful pairing with Michael Easton's character, who needs to go now. 

Everything aside, it will always boggle my mind how this show allows the unholy trio (Sonny/Carly/Jason) to still have a stronghold on it when the fandom keeps rejecting anything pertaining to them. If anything, the 60th anniversary should've been a reset for this show--for them to truly start focusing on the hospital again. It always unnerved me how ABC has Grey's Anatomy sitting right there (and it is thriving), but they have not taken that model and implemented a bastardized, daytime version to GH

I'll be frankly surprised if they go there again so soon. They could not end Jason/Sam fast enough after almost 20 years not long before he left, and Steve's Jason was quickly hitting up two new chicks in the same year shortly afterwards. This was very unusual for Jason. Something clearly happened with Steve and Kelly BTS.

I do think the show focuses a lot on the hospital, frankly. It began moving back to the hospital and its staff as a central hub starting with the soft reset of the show in 2005, when they were in major crisis and brought back Kimberly McCullough (at Steve's suggestion!) and hired Jason Thompson for her. Everything followed from that, and it's only grown since. Today a lot of folks work at the hospital or around it on the show, and it's the mob elements of the show that frankly are out of place and feel extraneous and old-fashioned vs. the rest of the show - it's played out, and only still there through ossified loyalty to veteran actors like Burton and Maurice and their rapt fanbases.

    • Someone needs to help me stop laughing because I've been crying from laughter in the past half an hour. My husband came to check if I'm okay. I'm more than okay. Is it Christmas already?

    • I can't imagine it was a shock to any of the actors, especially one so industry savy as Zimmer. However, it must have been like all of us, watching a loved one fading away and knowing it was going to happen but still being shocked when it does. Wheeler is to blame for waiting so long for that Hail Mary pass to be thrown. Its funny but this was the time that the writing seem to be getting better so someone fixed that, but why didnt it happen sooner? Again, at least the GL I saw go off the air, despite looking like it was filmed in my backyard, was the GL I knew with the right characters coming back and the right things happening. Unlike ATWT.....
    • This is a guess, but Kat is going to mess around and help get Leslie off on a technicality. She is too determined to go around the law. Sharon is so entertaining. The way she acted like Anita was about to trip her down or something at the end was hilarious. The silence from Tracy and Sharon when Anita called them out for not backing Barbara out was telling. They can't defend themselves because they were just as hungry for success as Anita was.
    • I am sure it was not what JJ thought was going to happen with Lucky or Lucky/Liz and I don't think JJ will ever be back.  That was just an awful return and his return in 2010 wasn't anything great lol.

    • I don't think this is anything but a pause. I think there's a lot more of Liz/Lucky coming up ahead. Think of it as a classic fakeout.  Edit to ADD: Well, crap. Ignore me. Outta there. 
    • Now she used to be on the Directing rotation, so is this when she was off of it for awhile & now is back?

    • A Day Off from the Drama Felt Like a Breath of Fresh Air Honestly, I didn’t mind the change of pace today. The episode had a lighter tone, and it was refreshing—like coming up for air after all the intensity lately.  But, did anyone else notice that Bo's hospital room is larger than Marlena's living room? Chad and Leo: A Surprisingly Enjoyable Pairing I actually enjoy Leo in scenes with Chad. It's a shame Chad hasn't been given more lighthearted material before—he’s much funnier than I expected. At least we were spared the referenced Ari/Leo interaction (dodged that bullet). Gabi’s Hair: A Curl Too Far Let’s talk about Gabi’s hair. Those curtain curly-q bangs? Ridiculous. Not only unattractive but completely impractical. And if she doesn’t like living with Leo, then… move out. Yes, it’s Rafe’s house, but she’s the CEO and titular head of GabiChic. If Chanel and Johnny can afford rent, I’m sure Gabi could swing Li Shin’s old place (they've probably painted since Gabi found him dead, and Melinda was held hostage there). Rafe and the FBI: Why Though? I still don’t understand the narrative function of Rafe suddenly working for the FBI—unless it’s to explain why he’s perpetually off-screen. Side note: Has anyone told Elon’s team that the Bureau is hiring middle-aged men who talk to stuffed animals and are apparently set to retire with full pensions in less than a decade? Doug3 and the Mystery of the Necklace Now, Doug3 is suddenly concerned about the age of consent? Not touching that. Also—whatever happened to his friendship with Sofia? And how did he manage to find a loan shark when he only hangs out with high school girls?  How much could he have borrowed?  He changed his name and moved out of town, so he must owe enough for the loan shark to hire repo men to find him and photograph underage women. But the real head-scratcher: why is he asking Leo who bought the necklace? It’s Melinda. He knows it’s Melinda. Was this filmed out of order? Or did she fence it? I’m confused. Gwen Mention #1 (And we all know what happens when you say her name three times…) Cat: The Kookiness Has Worn Thin I’ve tried. Really. But I don’t like Cat. I don’t like her secret. I don’t like that she’s never at work covering Marlena’s phones. I don’t like her brand of kooky. I don’t like that she stopped blow-drying her hair. Honestly, I never invested much in her character because I figured she’d be gone by now. But now? I just don’t like her.
    • I'm actually stunned at the writing for Liz and Lucky today. It feels like a writing team that's out to make JJ look as bad as possible -- immature, irresponsible, and ridiculous. He comes off as a complete loser.
    • C-sign!!! Seriously, these numbers it's time to have a cyber party! #3 10/12 last weeks
