Yeah, it's definitely a wait and see sort of pairing and could go places.  I am just worn down or pessimistic about all things Kristina.  Getting Mansi was a good sign, but I still don't think the show has ever been invested in Kristina and I don't love this baby story.

It has to be one of the most unflattering dresses I have ever seen.  No shade on AS or her weight/size, but I don't even think a 90lb size 0 girl could pull it off.

Same here. I still wonder if they had any real plan when they hired her or if it was just another pointless get for Frank. Because this baby subplot and their stumbling onto Blaze clearly was not it. I know some people suspected they'd intended a triangle with Dex and Joss, which would've also bored me to tears.

I remember Parker. And I remember that went nowhere fast from what I read.

 

But...after all this time...isn't Kristina though? She now has two. The baby surrogate and now the romance story with Blaze. And we used to get nada on her before. I almost want to say 3 if they had kept the rivalry between her and Joss going that they started when LA was in the role.

 

I almost want to give the writers their due in that they did what the majority of us wanted done when the recasting of her and Molly(s) started and stopped the surrogacy story since they were recasts and actually took time with both characters (and actresses) and let them develop over time. And once the audience was debatedly used to the actresses off in their own stories and interactions, THEN they started back on the baby surrogate tale. At least, the Kristina angle.

ABC has a decent picture of her up but she's with Brad who I do not think we've seen in months!

Spoilers say

About Blaze, I think she is holding her own between 2 Emmy winners. I love that Kate Mansi is playing the Greek chorus with only facial expressions & body language to achieve that. And, ELR is just so bad, it's good.

Yeah...regardless of how I sound above...I can get behind a wait and see. After all they did vanish there for a moment. And that does happen to Kristina more than I feel it should. 


AS is definitely a beautiful woman. That dress though...I can't. What were they thinking?

You've explained exactly what I'm worried about regarding Spinelli. I think we're heading for a regression, unless Mulcahey stops it in its tracks.

Also agree completely about Carly's opinions of Bobbie. No matter that Carly as a child didn't know Bobbie -- it was still obvious to anyone in Port Charles that Bobbie could be messy and then some. I hate it when they rewrite characters as having no flaws/saintly lives.

Well since I don't read spoilers unless I ask we know I don't want and will not that read that.

  I do appreciate the thought though.

 

Watching this last week or so and knowing about the writing change, the writing does feel like it's trying to wrap up a lot of Chris and Dan's stories so an appearance by Brad does not shock me. Shame he couldn't have been around when Lucas was.

    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.
