Is there really a need to post the show's creators, HW and EP every single day?

This is not a personal attack and I have no problem when you post about the soaps. I just asked you a question without being rude. We know who these people are and they don't change every day. There is nothing to discuss about them, that's it.

So Kristina thinks she should have had a voice in naming the baby? GH really is making the moves to make Kristina more and more unlikable.

 

[Sapounopera]

Kristina acts like a lunatic. Under other circumstances I might have believed that she will go psycho.

I just post te credits as they appear

Today’s episode was outstanding, I might even say the most entertaining one since I started watching again. So much soapy conflict and confrontation. One scene ended and shifted to another just as interesting.

First of all I’m glad Trina finally stood up to Josslyn when it comes to Ava. I hated the way the previous regime had her show such little loyalty. Both Joss and Trina got to make extremely valid points and I loved Ava walking right in the middle of it. Joss telling Ava if she had been the one in the hotel suite instead of Kristina she wouldn’t be the one flying out the window was more of the obnoxious bitchiness I expect from Carly’s daughter. Then Trina making Ava tell her the truth of what happened was good to see.

Loved TJ and Molly naming the baby after Stella’s sister and the family gathering together before the funeral. Vernee Watson was definitely the MVP to there and brought some real emotional heart to the episode.

Kristina continues to piss me the hell off being mad about Molly and TJ naming their baby. I still loved how Molly and Alexis protected her from Jagger’s raggedy self trying to bring her in for questioning. Molly finding the paperwork of Kristina trying to keep custody of the baby was a great gag and once again Kristin V is just wonderful at playing soapy realization moments like that.

Sonny and Jason vs Anna was

I loved every moment. Valid callouts from everybody. I’m sad Jason chose to end his partnership with Anna when she made him chose between her and Sonny but enjoyed him calling her out for compromising herself for Valentin and her letting him know he’s actively choosing to be in the corrupt lifestyle and can’t hide behind the youth, naivety and his accident anymore as an excuse. Great acting from FH and SB.

Then the Sonny and Ava confrontation at the end, whew. The way he tried to corner her but she never coward and then him presenting her with the option to be spared was chefs kiss. Just a good soapy episode. I was sad to see Deception story in the previews.

Just a suggestion. We seem to have people who definitely do want this posted. We also have people who do not. Why don't the people who don't want it, just scroll on by?

Unless you're being very specific, just about the Creators, the EP & the co-HWs? In that case would agree that it's debatable. The BDW, the SW & the Director, change on a rotation. I think we should accept those changeables but let the permanent fixtures be left off. It would be essentially be a compromise. . 

[Sapounopera]

I can't tell someone to stop posting the BDW, the SW and the Director every single day Contessa. Not that I have seen many discussions about them all this time. As you have said, it would make more sense if that post featured some comments about the episode, but that's ok.

Seeing every single day the names of the creators, the EP and the HW in a post without any actual content, can be annoying. Perhaps it is only me, that's ok.  

[Contessa Donatella]

Hey, it's all okay to me, too. 

[ranger1rg]

I'm the person who originally posted the question as to whether or not we need those posts. Since then, I've seen that multiple people want them and think they're fine, so I'm good with that. I'm really fine with no compromise. As you said, just scroll on by.

But what I can do without? Posts that THANK the poster listing the credits. Seriously, do we need to do that? On occasion, I can understand thanking someone for information shared, or for some interesting insight. I don't think we need to thank people every time they post something.

[Contessa Donatella]

You make me laugh. My god, what will become of us if we thank each other all the time?! 

[ranger1rg]

LOL I know what you mean. But you do get my point, don't you? If you don't, that's fine. I'm not going to spend any more time or space on the damn credits.
