This episode was filler with the exception of the Steffy/Brooke feud. I was incredibly bored and I think Heather Tom was bored too. Bill's entire storyline is so rushed and pointless, in a way that Bradley will soon forget about these characters again for couple of weeks, believe me. 

I just felt the usual... no heartbeat energy today. I wanted some more drama and reactions to Brooke accepting the CEO position. But I'll give it time. It's more edible than the drivel that I'm used to from Bradley.

Good points, Maxim. The energy created by yesterday's episode just disappeared today.

I wanted a much stronger, longer reaction from Steffy that included sustained ranting and pouting. Instead, everyone was sort of copacetic. Wildly disappointing.

And the Poppy and Katie scenes I've complained about had no teeth, either. Sheila and Deacon? YAWN. All I kept wondering is if Sean Kanan started on Ozempic when he didn't even need it.

The camera person didn't like Sean Kannan today... or it was not his best day at work. Or maybe it was the editing guy... I don't know... There were couple of shots of his profile, where I was shocked this went past editing. SK looks great for his age, so I don't need to see these bad unflattering angles. I'm sure even the fittest person shot from that angle in that particular moment will look bad. They should have had a different shot. This is a soap opera after all, not Survivor.

And why is nobody talking or mentioning what is going on with Taylor when something like Steffy potentially working with Brooke is happening. Did Taylor die? When is this elephant in the room going to be addressed. It's so annoying when you think how Steffy will never not think to rant to her mother or even call her to the rescue at this moment. They could even bring her in without Taylor being in the scene. Steffy could call her on the phone and we could only hear Steffy's voice and we could still somewhat acknowledge that Taylor existed on this show. Did Bradley forget that once upon a time, nearly half of the active fan base that used to keep the show's popularity alive were Taylor Forrester fans... So stupid.

BTW Sheila starting to get annoyed with Tom aka the homeless man is giving me nurse Judy vs Sheila vibes from 1993. It could be actually fun if Sheila started to terrorize this harmless guy. It could bring back the old school Sheila's methods of circling around her prey and trying to intimidate.

And if done with the right amount of humour and suspense, I will take it.

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
