Exactly how I feel. I thought the writing for him would improve when Ron returned, but it hasn't. I just don't get it.

Leo Howard reads "mature" in a way that JMM did not. It was easy to believe JMM's Tate and Holly would do stupid things. That stuff does not work with Leo's Tate, and the side effect is that it also makes me dislike Holly.

Playing catch-up, but I absolutely adore the addition of the Greene siblings. Don't [!@#$%^&*] it up DOOL. Such potential here.

 

Are we really losing Johnny and Chanel?? That would break my heart.

Did John go on his trip to Greece?  I don't think he's visited Steve in the hospital, even though Steve covered his tush by not mentioning to Justin that he helped break Clyde out of prison. 

I also have no idea why Clyde isn't using that secret (as well as Ava trying to kill him) as leverage.

Furthermore, I don't enjoy when inconsistent appearance begin to effect the momentum of a story (for example, we haven't seen Everett in four weeks).

There's a character named "Chad" and a character named "Everett" and they're involved in the same storyline.  Please tell me that that was unintentional and NOT an opportunity for Ron Carlivati to give a shout-out to "Medical Center."

Lol, wow, a Perry Como reference. We're the same age Khan, I think we're the last generation to even know who he is (he was my great aunt and uncle's neighbor down in Jupiter, FL).

At any rate, I do enjoy the unique blend of the Green(e?) siblings. As somone who has watched soaps for many years and seen the introduction of families, I don't recall being this interested in newcomers.

I also pray that they don't do a stupid "he really IS gay" storyline with Mark to prop Leo.

It's my soap, man. No matter how lousy people make it, or how many times I call it out for being lousy, I have to be optimistic about it

(Plus, Khan's post reminded me of that song anyway) 

Agreed

The introduction of the Greene's is being handled very differently (and with a lot more care) than other recent introductions (Everett, Sloan, even Chanel) have been.

Trust me: no matter how great the Greene siblings might be atm, Ron Carlivati will do something to make us wish them all into the cornfield someday.  I'm as sure of that as I am that the sun will continue to rise in the east and set in the west.

    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him when FV clearly took a shine to him. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field with both with very different people. Then maybe put them back together, who knows.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
