I think it is important for fans to say what they want, what is essential, as well as what they don't want, which is easy. The lesson learned from both Maureen Bauer and Frankie Frame when people didn't know & fully understand they were important even when they didn't happen to be frontburner is a lesson that cannot be underestimated. So, here are 7 charges I make to the new writers with my fingers crossed.

#1-Marcus Taggert: Reâl Andrews said he would be there with bells on if GH called. Call him!

#2-Cut from the cast: Violet, Gregory, Finn, Maxie, Spinelli, Maxie's children except James, Marshall, Stella & Drew.

#3-Maintain all of the Qs except Drew. Maintain Lois, guest of the Qs. Maintain the Davis women & TJ & Blaze. Maintain Carly, Ava, Trina, Dante, Sam, Sam's kids, Liz & Liz's kids. Maintain Laura, Kevin & Anna.

#4-Make sure stories have stakes & pay-off.

#5-Try to write well-paced stories with balance.

#6-See a little less of Sonny, Nina, Carly & Jason.

#7-Remember to tell stories about the hospital.

And, if I gave myself a #8 it would be to rebuild the Cassadines & Laura's children.

It's a pain that those of us who watch on Hulu, do not get this preview of the next day's show.

OH! Those threads. That pop up from time to time. Sure. I took what he said a different way, obviously the wrong way. And, I'm sure that at times we do talk about those things both there & here, just 'cause we get to talking & it happens. Thanks!

God, Carly’s kids are insufferable. 

One’s a pathetic excuse for a man, and the other one’s a whore, and an obsessive psychopath that puts Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction to shame.

It’s definitely a rare occasion when I’m taking Sonny’s side. 

And as for the ending with Anna and Jordan, that was an interesting turn in their storyline. I didn’t see it coming.

Michael and Joss are the worst though.  I don't know why we are supposed to think Michael is some bada*s business shark and guy when almost every silly plan he has blows up in his face.

    • I imagine Brad will blow through all the money in a year and come crawling back, just as Portia warned him not to.

    • That's a name I haven't heard in a minute. Thanks! 
    • Well, since I'm still up unexpected past my growing-into-it bedtime. lol.   I finally got to rewatch Monday's. I even rewatched Friday's to take it all in. Now that we got the reveal and hit the climax of the SilkPress Sheila storyline, now we get to watch the aftermath and/or turns that come with its climax. So far, so good. Friday left us with three cliffhangers. And what I found surprising was how I felt about them over a rewatch.    I know some of you all felt a way about the dialogue during Kat vs Eva. I remember liking it more the first time around and it was nice for them to have these scenes to establish more of a frenemy vibe for them going forward. That still held up. But I found myself agreeing with you all about that dialogue. lol. Still, it was nice to have both of their POVs.   Second up was Silk Press Sheila vs the Duprees. And I was happy to get a brief spat with Dani in there. But the rest standouts for me was Anita and Martin. Haters can hate and given the tail end of the episode, I will agree to a fault, but Brandon has impressed and he was on fire on Monday and had great subtle work on Friday. And that subtle work made it all the better. Like I believe I said when I was watching...BC has a much better grip on his character and seems to be realizing what his tics are so has started to be able to know when to turn it up and when to dial it down. And for the most part (emphasis on most), he got that. Meanwhile, TT was giving fierceness, and I was here for every minute of it. Her reading SilkPress. Her being quip about it. Her 'BE STILL.' Ooooo she had a chokehold on me as Anita gave what I was expecting her to SilkPress. WORTH THE WAIT. I also loved Vernon's CHOOSE SILENCE. I wonder though if SilkPress will figure out Martin's condition from her observing Anita and Vernon with him.   And speaking of worth it...Oooo YES Nicole vs Ted was worth totally worth it. Oooooo I knew DD would nail it, and it was all so well done. The fight between the part of Nicole who is a therapist vs Nicole as a woman who wants to express how she feels. And being so angry. And how there would be moments when it would shoot out of her. And how she would restrain herself. But how she felt she should not be restrain. Just the levels of processing and layers. And DD played it all so well. I do wish Maurice gave just a little bit more, but overall, I thought he did a good job even if it was just Ted coming across as a deadbeat and not at all redeemable. And Kat being there for her mother was so beautiful.   Minority, but I love the montage though yes, it did run a little long. Given how the Duprees like to bond (and also as I mentioned from my own very recent family experiences), it did not seem out of place to me.     That said...let's see how the aftermath worked in today's episode. Overall. Cuz RC can be hit or miss. 
    • I wonder whose brilliant (

      ) idea it was to do an almost complete rip-off of the "who killed Tom King"-storyline. That's some quality style writing right there.....  
    • The show is done. It got canceled at the end of January. https://www.soapoperanetwork.com/2025/02/fox-first-run-cancels-dish-nation-person-place-or-thing-pictionary-759232
    • I believe it. ESPECIALLY that last one. 
    • Aristotle Dumas. Just thought I'd throw that out there!  
    • Lol is that like an AI type of thing that popped up?
