I like Nina and Sonny. MB's best couple since Brenda's last return in 10-11 and Kate in 07-08. I am not saying they have a potent chemistry, but it's better than his previous couples. Claire, Olivia, KS's Kate, and LW's Carly were no romantic chemistry zone. MB and CW work well together playing romance than what they had prior to this with LW and IR. There is a warmth and affection that makes me enjoy Sonny and Nina.  That's it. They are okay. Decent chemistry. If it's Nina or Carly or Bust, I want Sonny with Nina. She made him likeable and rational to me instead of stuck in same old patterns. 

But the problem is as another poster said these writers REALLY wants us to hate Nina and love Carly like it's personal to them. You get the feeling there is a score to settle that MB gives more to CW than LW so they getting even with him. You want a new leading lady? Okay. But we are going to tank her. Enjoy.

Well BlondeJagger's appearance buried the fact that Eden's back.  Where's @AbcNbc247 to commiserate with me lol?

Also, we didn't talk about how BlondeJagger's first scene was with Carly because of course it was....She's never not going to be sniffing near Brenda's sloppy seconds.  Move along Drew.  BlondeJagger's in town now!

Do Brenda fans really want her back in the FV era to be ruined at the altar of Carly?

Soapy Carly is long gone. Saint Carly is propped to the heavens and will be written as superior to Brenda just like Nina and Ava. They never win an argument over her and are forced to beg her for help at times. 

VM is smart enough to not return to GH for LW to run roughshod over her like the rest of her female co-stars. Carly dominates the other women under FV as the queen bee alpha female presence. Writing is skewed beyond belief since 16-17 to make Carly as bulletproof as possible in every story. Everyone kisses her ass. Nobody calls her out. Brenda will be made subservient to Carly in this era just like Nina and Ava. You get along with her or get run over.

    • NBC or P&G was even fool enough to take a full page ad for two consecutive weeks promoting this horrible storyline.

    • JFP has had more defense for her decades of terrible producing than many male producers ever had.
    • It makes sense that she got a degree in directing. I've always said she should have been a director. I think she works better at the technical aspects of the show. I think her problem is the emotion/heart of a show.  She always guts the heart of the show she's on and she makes decisions that stop longtime viewers from watching a show. I don't think it's sexism to call that out especially as I've said similar things about Conboy. I've called out Rauch for much worse. 
    • "Aunt Blanche" first appears toward the end of this episode, about 57 minutes in.

    • You're probably right. They may have just wanted edits of certain characters. Hopefully the rest is around.
    • Of course!

      I'm wondering if there were bits cut from this footage, because to me it seems that may be the case. At 11:23, Laurie tells her psychiatrist that the bar phoned and told her Mark got into a fight and needs to be picked up. It starts to fade to the next scene, you hear some different music begin and get cut off between the static, and where you'd expect to see the aftermath of the fight, we cut back to a later scene of Laurie in bed worrying about what's happening. The credits at the end also show that more than Mark, Laurie and Dr. Northcote should have been in this episode. Another character, Brody, played by Ed Setrakian, is mentioned but not shown. If this is the case, perhaps the original fan who saved this episode has the additional scenes.
    • Anyway… It’s a shame that the video that depicted Leticia’s death was removed from YT.

      I've never seen a trainwreck like this in my entire life. 5 pencils and 3 dolls?!!!!!!!!!!! (this little moment starts close to the 7th minute) WOW. THIS IS HAPPENING IN AMERICA?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   
    • Ms. Phelps holds a BFA in directing from Carnegie Mellon University, awarded in 1972. At a time when women were underrepresented in directing programs, she was one of the few women in her graduating class. To suggest that she possessed no further talents than completely changing the style of music used on soaps seems like a vast underestimate when one reads her online biography through an objective lens. I guess that I should be more clever than to constantly blame misogyny for these misguided interpretations of her management style.  But, I'll never comprehend why fans unquestionably align their opinions even years after fact. Post-modernism, and the ability to reinterpret context through the study of history, seems to elude this conversation.
