Might I suggest a metaphor to explain it? 😂

Such as, “Michael can’t play his instrument” or “Michael can’t get his car started” or “Michael can’t dock his boat” 

Michael's boat is more thick but Drew's boat is more long, and Willow is wanting a longer boat. 😶

Possibly.

Maybe Michael’s boat sinks too quickly as well.

I agree.

Like I said before, in another thread, Sonny doesn't know how to be anything BUT a criminal.  If he ever left the mob, he'd just go back to being what he was before - a two-bit strip club owner - but he wouldn't be as successful, because both time and the sex industry have passed him by.

Honestly, the only way you can go to remove him from the business is have him retire for Brenda.  Have him find his long lost love and change for her.  That's not even my own personal Brenda fanwanking.  It's the only way to make Sonny's character have a true, believable motive to leave.  No other woman including Carly cares that much about the mob, so the only logical way to make it right is to bring her back.  Otherwise, it's just mob stories or bi polar issues with a splash of rinse and repeat romances.

I could say more... but it may hurt some people, LOL! But, let's just say I think she desires something Drew can give over Michael. 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤭🤭🤭

Considering the lack of chemistry Michael and Willow share it's believable lol.

What a great time to reveal she craves attention so much that she faked her cancer. That was probably the greatest board generated plot about GH and I am still here waiting for it to be used by the show. A modern day early Karen Wolek (without the deep bench of talent both on camera and bts).

I still believe she was faking cancer!  That would have been such a great twist.  Her plan has been to get Drew all along.

I agree with all of the above, but we've all talked about it before and I've rambled on at length about this so I won't belabor it. Sonny back with Brenda and taking a backseat is the only solution.

I have little sympathy for Mo's position at this point. He doesn't seem to like being challenged and complains whenever story doesn't go his way, then attacks young actors who don't genuflect before him. He puts in a minimal effort onscreen and then harder story is curtailed either because he complains or struggles with playing it. I think the meds, etc. story stalled out largely because of the creative struggle BTS over vilifying Sonny again and having the town turn on him, which I thought was good material, but if he can't play that what is he willing to play? And what can he bring any consistent energy to at this point? So yes, I'd put him back with Brenda and give her most of their shared story together or separate. Let him cruise in his cushy backburner spot.

Oh, I don't think so. She just wanted a longer boat... though, giving up Chase's boat was a choice, too.

Wasnt Portia helping Esme with the hope that she would leave town and Spencer would follow. So she helped the woman who drugged and set up her daughter. I dont like this Laura/Heather arc but Portia aint clean either

Writer contracts typically go in 13 week cycles. PM's first 13 weeks ended June 13.  It'll be interesting to see if his name remains through week 26 (Sept 12) which I doubt given reports that his material airs through "mid-summer."

I wonder if Steve Kent will hire him for Y&R as script writer/consultant.

He began writing in Late January/early February that is when his contract started

Mulcahey, when he left Bold, denied that he'd go to Young. If anything, he's off to The Gates.

That's possible given his connection to MVJ, but my gut tells me that the team behind that new show has more diverse (and younger) choices.  PM's longest writing stint was Santa Barbara, I think, where he worked with Ken, and now that Kent is directly in charge of the failing and horrible Y&R I could see PM going over there to do scripts and that show desperately needs another veteran writer.

I don't see it happening. At all. Kent & Griffith are tighter than thieves, and that's where Kent's allegiance is: with Griffith.

The fact that Portia has not been called out on her appalling hypocrisy with regard to Esme is a big sticking point for me!!! She spent months being uber-friendly to Esme in the hope that Esme & Spencer would become a romantic couple & free Trina of him.

Since I believe that Patrick quit, rather than being fired or let go, I doubt that contract cycle date will be pertinent.  Since at one point we heard his material would air till mid-July I figure his name will disappear probably next week or the end of Sweeps. Could be wrong. We'll see. 

The DA would want to reopen Heather's case. That would come from Heather's atty.
