-- Does anyone know why Gio had a scene on today's show? All he did was walk in on Chase and Brook Lynn, say he showed Violet around because she was lost, and made his way outside to play his violin. WTF was that?

Doesn't that usually mean he had more important scenes that got cut?

Either that, or they don't know what to do with him, but they've gotta fulfill his episode guarantee regardless.

I think it is ridiculous that a legacy child like Emma has to fight for her place on the canvas when Sasha just roams free with no purpose daily lol.  

Seriously, Sasha is but one of maybe 30 characters (on-contract and off-) that could stop appearing TODAY with no explanation(s) and it would not affect the storytelling whatsoever.

That would make sense. He seems like a case of an actor someone at the show liked and they just dumped him on the canvas. Joss is busy elsewhere and they don't care about Trina. 

I would say they might have Brook Lyn cheat with him but the way the character is written now, she would probably be struck by lightning or turned into salt at the mere thought.

It's sad when Charles and Caroline Ingalls are friskier than Chase and Brook Lynn.

Isn't Brook Lyn related to Gio lol?  Isn't it her cousin or something?  Although the VC Andrews turn might make me like BLQ because it's at least interesting.

I do hope they dont stop the LGBTQIA Center. If Lucas were around, he could run it

Oh I thought he was like a family friend. Thanks.

They had more heat!

That center of Kristina's is never going to appear onscreen. It was a plot point.

We never saw the youth center. The producers don't want to build a new set and hire LGBT extras to have a youth center. The youth center was Kristina's baby, but the writers are going to have her keep Molly and TJ's baby instead. We probably won't hear about that center again. It is a dropped storyline.

No. It's not. You're clearly continuing to troll. Kristina has continued to mention the center, even recently as the past week or so. They're likely not introducing it until the fall when the Metro Court pool set is gone.

Kristina started talking about the youth center when she was a single girl with no other storyline happening. She is now dating a singer and is pregnant. Kristina has other things to talk about.

Sure, Jan. Sure.

I appreciate how well done the scenes with Finn and Violet were with him saying goodbye. Everyone did well in those scenes. My only issue is once again, even though it has been sped up, we have seen every step in a Finn story. It’s the only set of stories being told with any care, from the wedding, Gregory’s death, though Finn leaving for rehab.

Everything else is plagued with starts and stops, and details just dropped in exposition instead of showing the other stories.

One thing I have hated during the last few years is that if a story isn’t working for Frank, they just ignore it. I fear the last few months with Sonny are headed there. The town pariah, Molly carrying around poor old Cyrus’ statement declaration, his meds, whatever was happening with Ava…that is a lot of plot to just disappear. 

I like Gio, he’s kind of just there but at least they are not trying to make him angst ridden when it doesn’t suit him. But there have been a couple of times when he is just smiling away that I expect him to flash a package of Mentos, the fresh maker!

Lol.  I am pretty sure the show referred to Gio as a "cousin" to either Lois or Brook.  The internet is telling me his name is either Gio Cerullo or Gio Palmieri so I am not sure exactly who Gio belongs to.  I was assuming one of Lois's siblings.

I am not sure if we will ever see it, but I think it will be something she at least talks about.  Does Kristina still work at the bar?  Or is she on maternity leave now or whatever?  Lol.
