So, it is official that Alex's only function is to be topless on a weekly basis.

I actually thought the actor did a good job when the scab writing focused on his conflict over being able to be monogamous.  But, now we are back to moon-eyed Alex, who has completely forgotten about his affair with Kristen.  He's got nothing to say about Brady sleeping with his ex-fiance, and then going back to drinking.  He's at peace with Xander taking over the business.  He's not speaking with Tate, who was going to be his step-son.  He's no longer in touch with Maggie.  Justin didn't seem to work with him as his agent, like he did for Bonnie. And he's lost all of his shirts in the move out of the mansion.

I'll wait to see how it plays out, but my main question in the F-Abby saga remains, what do the Greene's have to lose by telling the truth?  I know Clyde has their mother, but he is in prison, and would never know if they colluded with Chad to double-cross him.  It just makes them seem dumb, that they never question Clyde's reach, now that he is in a maximum security prison.

On the plus side: It is good to see B&S getting balanced with other, more interesting (IMHO) stories.

Now that I think about it, I wonder why Ron moved his two favorites into a C-story that’s (thankfully) not seen a lot.

Did he burn through their episode guarantees or something?

That link from Michael Fairman says Al Calderon debuts Oct. 28.
Fairman didn't say who his character will be.

It was guessed months ago that the character name might be "Javi" because there was something in the make-up room with the name "Javi" next to Calderon in a BTS photo then.
Still unconfirmed.

Stephanie Sloane said in the fall preview for all 4 soaps that "Gabi and Rafe's cousin comes to town".

Accidental spoiler pic --
On Sept. 30, 2024, the Peacock account used this picture as the thumbnail for that date's episode.
(They have since replaced it with a thumbnail of Paulina).

This the photo that displayed before they took it down:

His character is supposed to work at the hospital so I don't think we see the actor singing on the show

I had to laugh at the females in the audience screaming in happiness about Al not having a girlfriend. Of course ladies that's because he's into guys.

The girls had no chance.

It's a true tragedy someone as hot as hell and in the prime of their life as Al Calderon is going to be wasted on a rotted nuisance pushing 50. I just hope by the time the new regime finally kicks in, all hope won't be lost.

Has there been any word on what his character is going to be like?

Al says he identifies as queer, and we know how Ron writes actors/characters who don’t identify as straight or gay

 

There’s always Mark

Brandon Barash is a solid actor, but Stefan has always been a mess of a character. At least him and Gabi have seemingly been written well in this exit story and it's always a plus to see Louise Sorel if she is indeed returning., however briefly.

    • He definitely had it going on back in the day
    • I have long given up on logic and Mayor Laura Collins! It makes about as much sense as Luke being elected mayor over Lee Baldwin in the 80’s, maybe even less sense. She committed manslaughter as a teenager, was involved with a mobster (I guess credit for them taking Smith down), had a shoot out in her home and killed another mobster in self defense, thought she bludgeoned her stepfather to death, then was catatonic for years. Her current husband had a twin that was a serial killer, had his own breakdown that threatened lives, and most recently hid his brother for treatment and that allowed Ryan to escape and kill again. And had hook killer Esme as a houseguest and is raising her child. I don’t care for Sonny anymore but their relationship is just another thing that involves suspension of belief to watch the show. I wish someone on this show would remind these adults that they used to pull way worse stuff than this! I would love a scene where Laura is sitting with Lulu and tells her while she is not happy this is nothing compared to what she got up to when she was young, and maybe even some understanding that she would also do stupid stuff if she believed in the cause. Olivia reminding Dante that he was wild as a teen and this isn’t that. Felicia reminding Anna that they were being shot at when pretty close to Emma’s age. These characterizations are just so basic. Have some fun with the actual history of the show. That kind of wink would mean more to me than just name dropping some random fact.
    • There are no dumb questions here, we've all known each other long enough to fill in information without shaming each other.  We want you to be happy @carolineg.  Your POV as one of the few women here is vital. So, please, I hope you never feel as if any question, idea, or opinion is ever silly or stupid.  Your daily reminders about the realities of manicure and menstrual management has become a part of the personality of this thread. As for Hank, while I'm confident there's a plan in place.  It is frustrating that they announce these casting so far in advance that it is tough as an audience and wait it out until the thing happens.  I'm happy they didn't blow it the second Mike was in town, a week after meeting Liam. So, it is a slow burn.
    • I think his full name is Chadwick.  I remember, back when the previous actor was playing him, someone called him Chadwick a couple of times.  It may have been Stefano.  
    • I didn't like those two sleeping together, but I suuure liked seeing BF in them. Wiggle and all. Just sad about the waxing of the chest.   Same.
    • It’s strange. I wonder if the writers at that time had worked with him somewhere else and had a relationship? That time is murky AF to find info on. Rachel Ames in effect left the show at one point in the early 80’s and she is credited like she was there until JFP. Tristan Rogers also took various contract breaks that were not short, and websites also credit him one long stint from 1981-1992. So many people come and go in short succession in 1982-part of 1983. I know they lost a lot of viewers when Genie left, but the show somehow survived yearly at number one through like sheer force of will.
    • In that way, at least we were fortunate.  The Daniel Pilon/Ron Raines decisions...not so much.
    • Letting Brennan put it in yet again while smirking over his shoulder... any day now! She's got him just where she wants him! I do think ol' Jack will be dead by February at the absolute latest. They have set him up as a counter-heavy to Sidwell, forcing poor Joss to work his next scheme or threatening to have her sent down for treason. Once he croaks I still deeply fear we will be subject to Valentin and Carly, partners in crime to lovers, possibly out to find out 'who killed Jack'. Anna was at her best keeping Sonny at arm's length and often somewhat cold, which she only really did (for better or worse) off and on during Carlivati's tenure. But Finola gradually got too emotional over Sonny, Jason, etc. and was allowed to do that onscreen too much long ago. Mulcahey brought some of that steel back, though Finola still managed to choke or quietly sob through some of that material as Anna found her way there lol. She's a brilliant actress and she did a good job with that stuff in '24, but now we're back to the same old and it humiliates the character whether she knows it or not.
