I loved her on OLTL, I thought she was an ideal recast early on and I don't think Frank will ever let her go, but if this is how this is going to go forever with Setton it's time to recast.

And don't get me started on the Gio thing. It is so unnecessary to do this with Dante and BLQ, let alone with a grown young man. (And I say that as someone who likes Gio and who would play Dante and BLQ together for awhile after nuking Chase.) These sexy adults do not need more kids let alone grown children.

Kristina needs a break, after having all her spoiled bullshít about that baby shoved back down her damn throat. This is exactly why the entire surrogacy story should never have happened, she's always been like this. It's ruined a promising recast and made her unbearable.

I would reposition her after a few months of low airtime in the new year and then slowly find someone new for her. But Frank never says die with unpopular characters who are fúcking up unless he is forced to or when re-up time rolls around and they ask for more money. So we'll probably see him quadruple down.

Please know that if I have posts from users I've blocked quoted at me so that I can see them in order to inject herself into this discussion I will report both parties. I say this because it's been done before. Let's not get cute the day before Turkey Day.

They don’t even need to script these two doing the deed anymore if what we got today is what they’re giving us. This was just awful.

I love when soap kids make sense because of who their parents are. Similar to Rachel on Days being exactly what a child by Kristen DiMera should be. James is perfect as Maxie’s son and I thoroughly enjoyed the scenes with Lulu. Also loved him pointing her out in the picture album. 
 

Lulu fresh out of her coma just going place to place was hilarious. The ending with Rocco being the first one to run into Lulu from her family was perfect!

Also loved Liz and Lucky getting the footage and realizing she’s awake as well.

Honestly wanted Ric to go a little harder in embarrassing Kristina but it was fun while it lasted. I hope Ava gets off. I’d be perfectly fine with a Kristina break. The writing has ruined my enjoyment of one of my favorite daytime actresses.

They couldn’t find a cute set of pajamas or a cute robe for her to be in? It looks ridiculous, and what they have her in and the angle in bed makes it look like she’s wearing many layers of clothes. Like Joey on Friends.

”Could I be wearing any more clothes?!”

Just incredibly distracting and silly. Next time I want her to be in a full gown and one of those old bonnet hats. let’s go full Amelia Bedelia.
 

And while we are making fun of her clear discomfort, I will still add that it is possible to have a demure performer and still make intimacy appear to have happened! But that would possibly take a couple of minutes to stage, so it’s out of the schedule.

As a female, I find it ridiculous to even think about putting on a full set of pajamas and a robe after sex and then going back to lie under covers.  That's so much effort.  

They absolutely could find her a silky nightgown set with a silky robe to make it slightly believable.  I have no idea what Setton's "modesty" rules are, but if these two are married on screen isn't that okay?  You are acting out a character newly married on a tv show.

While I understand why Josh and Amanda feel the way that they do about scenes like this, I also think that maybe soaps aren’t the best medium for them and that it’s time for ChaLynn to get their happily ever after, away from Port Charles. 

Plus, it’s not like there’s a lot of story for them, except for the possible Gio thing.

    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
