If Dr. Greene is endgame for Leo then Ron won't ruin the family.

Because if he's not the family won't last.

Ron doesn't like Will/Sonny gay versions.

He prefers the Leo gay type.

See ya, Harris. I guess some of us will miss you lol 

Character wise, I’m not really sure why Ava can’t just go with him to search for Megan but I guess she needs to be there for the whole Stefan/Gabi thing. Their scenes were really good though and definitely more proof that Steve Burton can play more than just a mindless killing machine. 

There were a lot of other good scenes today too. I like the way that Maggie and Alex made peace and how EJ and Nicole discussed her kissing Eric and how it’s being all set up. It’s paving the way for everything to get blown to hell once all the secrets come out.

Tate and Holly were good too. Leo Howard had a chance to flex his acting muscles today and I was impressed. He did play angry pretty well. I’m still not the biggest fan of the whole Romeo and Juliet thing and having Theresa be the primary source of conflict for them, even though I like the suggestion that Tate brought up today, that Theresa’s just compensating for her own mistakes. I still think that Days should let Holly and Tate’s own personal problems and feelings be the primary source of conflict between them. And while that’s happening, Theresa (and especially Sophia) could take advantage of the situation somehow.

There's something funny about these SORAS kids claiming abandonment issues.  I mean, Theresa's not a good Mom.  But, she didn't intend for him to magically evolve into a surly teen when she sent him off to whatever magical boarding school does this to soap opera children!

They're sad because their parents missed years of life.  Well, maybe if they hadn't spontaneously developed, their parents could've visited more often.

That actually would be fine if Theresa wasn't acting like a massive hypocrite and still committing all sorts of crimes and concocting horrible schemes to get money. I'm sorry, but today's scenes with Theresa just fell flat for me and I just don't buy that she actually has any love or concern for her son. Even if she does, she obviously loves money more over anything else.

Firstly, people have got to stop talking to Victor's poster (I say poster because it is the cheapest looking portrait in America, bring back Princess Gina to paint something a little more special).  I mean, Alex never shared a scene with Victor, how's he going to know how he would feel about him getting married.

Which brings me to my second point, does Theresa know what Konstantin's plan was for once she married Alex?  Was he going to kill him?  Was she supposed to divorce him right away and get half?  Because an inheritance is not community property, and he acquired it before the marriage, so she has not right to the money, unless he's dead.

Third, last week we were talking about the mixed messages between Tate and Theresa, but now I am actually confused about the relationship between Holly and Nicole.  Today, Holly was asking for Nicole's support and understanding.  But, last month, she was railing at her for loosing so many babies.  I thought they were going to use the rift to explain why Nicole leaves Holly behind in Salem.  But, this made no sense.

Finally, when did we learn that Megan escaped from prison?  The last thing I heard, she was in a maximum security facility after mind-controlling Harris to shoot Gabi.  (EDIT, now I remember she escaped from the hospital with the help of the nutty nurse that held Abe hostage and then went on Rolf's sub - how could I forget the sub that somehow navigates through lakes). 

Bye Harris.  If you can't support the woman you love, go find the one that plays with your mind.

I enjoyed all the scenes involving Tate and Holly minus their gag worthy texts. The EJ and Nicole scenes were great too.

The weak link for me was Leo Howard. I didn't think he was that great. Howard being almost 30 is really hurting this story. Also it is ridiculous Tate doesn't understand why his mother is so against Holly.

I am starting to really hate Holly.

I find it hard to swallow that people can't suspend their disbelief when it comes to Tate.  Not only is he a charming young actor, but watching classic soaps, they had guys in their 30s play teens all the time. 

I mean, Laurence Lau was 27 when he was cast as high schooler Greg Nelson on AMC.  Kevin McClatchy (Nick) was 32 and Hank Cheyne (Scott) was 28 when they debuted on Another World.

I get that OG Tate looked younger, but we need to move past this well trod territory.

C'mon, Soaps, Leo Howard is just 26, not almost 30. Your rounding up method is mean, especially during Pride month. LOLOL.

But those texts were gag-worthy for sure.  Tate said Holly said Tate gave her the "perfect prom"? And Tate responds "We'll always have tonight"? HUH??? Did I miss something?

A lamer prom I have never seen -- and that's before the whole thing was upended by  Criminal Mom.

I guess the kisses they had in the hotel room counted as perfect prom and the phrase we'll always have tonight.

Howard looks silly at 26 complaining about a prom.

I think it would be interesting if for some reason, Holly ends up taking Theresa’s side once all the secrets come out. That could cause some good problems for her and Tate, especially with Sophia still lurking (hopefully)

And here I am, thinking that was sweet

      B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles

      By BoldKara · Posted

      Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.

      GH: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that

      All My Children Tribute Thread

      Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      By EricMontreal22 · Posted

      Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      Please register in order to view this content

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene 

      Please register in order to view this content

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?

      ALL: General Retro Soap Discussion

      By EricMontreal22 · Posted

      But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).

      You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.

      You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
