Well, the day we knew would arrive is finally here and let me start by once again, saying, poor Javi. 

Why would anyone bring in a young, handsome new character with tons of potential just to pair him with the worst character on the show? The worst character that, after six years, is literally the albatross to end all albatrosses and who pretty much only has like three fans. This is why people get fired lol

And I definitely wasn’t here for Leo crying about all his failed relationships to Alex. 

Btw, people still share drinks in this post-pandemic world? 

I’m actually am liking Chanel/Johnny/Joy now, even though I still think that the way they’re writing Joy and Nancy’s relationship is ridiculous. I really don’t like the overbearing mother/eye rolling, dismissive child trope. Especially in this case because it sometimes makes this storyline feel forced again and it didn’t need to be and still doesn’t. But I’m still glad that they’re continuing to write a mystery as to whether Johnny and Joy had sex. That could lead to something good happening.

It seems like people are liking Javi, but I find him absolutely obnoxious.   I am trying to give the character a chance- I just really haven't found him endearing or funny.  He seems like an entitled brat.  Something about the way he's jealous of Rafe, tried to keep the ring, but is perfectly fine staying at Rafe's house for free without asking Rafe is off putting.  That being said I don't wish Leo on anyone lol.  

I guess it's too early to make a judgement on Javi and it's nice for Gabi to have someone to talk to.  I just am not a fan so far.

Agreed the Nancy/Joy stuff feels odd.  Every return it's like Nancy's regressed more to who she was years ago when she came to town.  Like I said earlier, I don't think Nancy's ever had the strongest character point of view, but this seems especially cliche and lacking depth.

The same things bothered me about Javi, also. Plus. I am one who is not yet 100% sold on NuGabi. I especially did not like her trying to blame EJ for Stefan moving on & out. Also, and this is gonna get boring, I'm afraid. But, Aaron, yesterday, was driving me crazy. Their family structure  makes  no sense. He didn't know their mother is alive. Then, he didn't even know that F'Abby (Cat) is his sister. What in hell is wrong with their family? And, furthermore, did Joy & Johnny have sex? Inquring minds want to know. And, as usual, don't even let me get started on Leo.

If I understood yesterday correctly, Aaron thought both his parents died in the car accident.  He knew Cat, his sister, was alive but she was in a clinic recovering from major injuries.  So the assumption is Cat recovered with multiple surgeries and just didn't reveal herself to Aaron/Felicity and they wouldn't recognize her because she looked different.  At some point Clyde told Mark/Cat that their mother was still alive and that's how they started the Chad plan.  Neither Aaron nor Felicity knew their mother was alive.

We don't know if Joy/Johnny had sex.  The show is keeping it vague.

It was a little confusing.  The show explained it, but there were a lot of gaps and holes in the way they laid the Greene family dynamic out.  I am not sure if it's rewrites, bad writing, backstages issue or all of the above.  I feel like the way the show introduced the Greenes is very different from what actually ended up being their backstory.

Just quoted everything

Tuesday's episode was good!

JPL acting is still horrible.

Javi is so cute but he reminds a lot of Leo.

And yes Javi has some nice dance moves.

I enjoyed the Hernandez scenes as well.

    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975.
