This is off-topic, sort of, but it's reel/real soap relevant,
and the timing is interesting.

October 3rd GH episode, the fictional character Marshall Ashford tells Curtis that he has an opportunity to go on tour with jazz great Wynton Marsalis.  Actor Robert Gossett has exited GH for the time being but could return later.

Wynton Marsalis' real life music biography:

The next morning, October 4th, in real life, Victoria Rowell posted a throwback picture
of herself with her ex-partner Wynton Marsalis
and their baby or toddler son Jasper Marsalis. 
Jasper Marsalis is now a music producer.
He also performs with the stage name " Slauson Malone 1 ".

Van was exaggerating, I think he did have more scenes with Muara West today that he did during his entire time on ATWT

Cody and Brad have more chemistry than most of the actual couples on this show. If GH was smart, they'd make him gay or bi and give us a Cody/Lucas/Brad triangle. 

Portia is annoying me. 

Lovely to see more Liz.

I don't really think Mulcahey would have made a difference here. He was there when Jason returned and any depth in that story ended in about two weeks. The material for Laura was also mostly poor during that time, and made the character look bad, going on about Heather and giving her chances even as she tells her son to stay in jail.

The material with Sonny was just more of the usual posturing about what a danger he was while making sure he had an escape clause. I don't think it was much better than what he has now, it's just Maurice can enjoy himself more now because he can play mobster and has a hot new love interest who exists solely for Sonny.

The failures with Lucky have been there for a long time, including with a writer so many now seem to dearly miss (Guza). I think he's just a character who was best left to the past. At best we'd get another sorrowful speech that we already saw twenty versions of in 1998.

Brad and Tracy can fight over him.

Van got very lucky with the time he joined ATWT, when there was a very vocal calling for more gay characters, especially young gay characters who would stay around instead of being a guest star on a sitcom. He was also believable as the son of the ever-hysterical Martha Byrne. People seemed to be tired of him after a few years on ATWT and he moved into other realms post-Luke. I don't think Lucas will be on for long but I imagine if he stays the same fatigue will happen here.

I tend to wonder if both actors wanted to drop them.

    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83. 
    • If the show ever chooses to show any flashbacks of major Ted scenes, the Ted/Eva, Ted/Kat, and Ted/Nicole scenes would need to be re-filmed with nuTed. Since there have been hardly any Ted/Martin scenes with the CurrentTed, they have avoided the difficulty of doing recreated flashbacks with nuTed for scenes with Martin.  The only one would be Martin punching Ted after the anniversary reveal (unless there's something in the next few episodes). I agree with other posters that the fact that we barely saw CurrentTed and Martin interact, makes it less impactful to viewers to see Martin's outrage at the reveal. 
    • This makes me think of that famous quote from COOL HAND LUKE,  "What we've got here is failure to communicate." I did not bring up "apparently" to try to get across either truth or validity, but doubt. If I had been sure, I would have said something entirely different. But, I'm not trying to argue, I hear you & I will comply. Besides that, I will endeavor to word things differently. I am never against trying to improve. 
    • That’s been my main issue with his response. It didn’t feel that earned by what came before. Definitely needed to see more of the Richardsons as a full family unit prior to all of this.
    • Bingo! I thought the exact same thing. Martin's anger feels so out of place, because we've hardly seen him interact with his parents. Vernon and him have more of a father/son relationship and we've seen their dynamic more fully play out. While obviously Ted and Marton are father and son, it felt a bit empty because we haven't really seen them bond or truly connect in any scenes.
    • Leslie inferred over 20 years ago, so Eva and Kat are over 20 at least 
    • As it happens, 40 years ago this week, ABC and CBS revealed their 1985-86 fall schedules. NBC revealed theirs the week before. ABC's would end up changing. The original plan for Tuesdays was to have Diff'rent Strokes lead the night, with He's the Mayor at 8:30, followed by Who's the Boss at 9, Growing Pains at 9:30, and Moonlighting at 10. There was some surprise over MacGruder & Loud not getting renewed, but it was considered part of Aaron Spelling's declining influence at the network. Yes, Dynasty was still a hit (for a while longer), but Aaron's shows steadily took up less and less of the schedule. Fall 1984: Seven hours, five of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, Glitter, Matt Houston, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Finder of Lost Loves; MacGruder & Loud aired at midseason, by which time Glitter was gone.). Fall 1985: Five hours, two of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Hollywood Beat, The Love Boat). Fall 1986: Three-and-a-half hours, a half-hour of which was new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Life With Lucy). Fall 1987: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and Hotel; HeartBeat premiered at midseason). Fall-winter 1988: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and HeartBeat). This led to Variety's infamous shady headline in spring 1989: "Aaron's Dynasty Over"
