I thought Leo Howard did fine and was pretty natural on his first day. I liked JMM a lot, but he aired for, what, four months total? LH does read older -- like they could have cast him for the Johnny/Chanel age group, not as someone who's supposed to be 16-17. 

I still have no idea why EJ was so hellbent on prosecuting Tate, who at worst would've been the lowest-level offender (distributing small amounts, since he wasn't caught with any significant amount on him), when he knew Stefan -- the brother he despises -- was involved in high-level drug-running. Don't DAs usually want big convictions instead of small-time ones?!

I guess it is possible that (inadvertently or not) they are trying to diminish the age gap between Chanel, Johnny, Tate, and Holly for storylines.  Much like AMC began to merge Nina and Cliff with Jenny and Greg, or Bo and Hope with Kim and Shane.  Johnny and Chanel's ages are already ill-defined.  I'm not talking about what age they would be chronologically IRL, but what age they are being written as in Salem-time, because we don't know if they graduated from university.

I would imagine we'll get one more year of high school out of this couple, and then they will evolve into young adults.  Especially because they will both lose their mothers in the near future (no spoilers, just assumptions).  So, they won't be defined by those relationships. 

In fact, I wonder where Holly will live if/when Nicole leaves Salem?

In theory, yeah. They just never connected the logic in a way that worked for me. He knew Stefan was running drugs for Clyde, and the drugs would've come from them even if Tate had technically handed a pill to Holly, so it felt odd to me that EJ was wholly unconcerned with bringing down the people who were supplying drugs to teenagers instead of the men (whom he already loathed!) causing the entire epidemic we kept hearing about -- especially when the case against Tate looked pretty flimsy.

    • And sadly I think that’s the trivia Both Jeanne Cooper and Eric Braeden went with for years and years. Lol
    • But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call. Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood. 
    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.    
    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
