If I was RC and was deluded enough to think Leo and (anyone) Javi would be a good couple, why would you not take the actual steps to get there, to build up a yearning, a wanting, a need for the couple to unite on what is supposed to be a SOAP OPERA. The first mistake was trying to make us believe Javi would be attracted to Leo at first sight. A herculean task. If anything, Leo would only be a discreet hook-up Javi would have to meet his needs, then when Leo won't leave well enough alone, Javi tries to let him down gently, but Leo being Leo, he becomes pushy, forcing Javi to reject him harshly. From there you would find reasons for Javi to grow fond of him, form a friendship, and THEN Javi would learn all about Leo's horrible past and want nothing to do with him. 

Of course, if it were actually me, Leo's exit would happen on day dot, but you see what I'm getting at.

An unbiased, unobsessive soap writer would definitely do that because that’s the only way this mess could work. 

And yes, agreed that Leo would be gone on day one if I were writing it too.

It’s not gonna work lol

Hell, Leo’s been forced so much at this point, that it probably wouldn’t work even if fans liked him

Even if he hadn't been fired for writing Body & Soul, Ron Carlivati should have been fired for putting Leo and Javi together.

GR is a decent looking guy, but he's not hot, he's not sexy, and he's in no way an instant attraction to a gay guy. Leo should have been the town slut for months. What a waste.

Just like Peter Porte, and almost like with Zach Tinker; ruined because of this pathological obsession with Leo.

This is why people get fired lol 

Maybe Javi will run into Kerry, at some point… even though his taste is a little questionable too

    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
    • Lol. But Jeffrey was weak to mama. Leslie can go dead because anger is a great motivator via Martin defending HIS mama and just not taking ish altogether. This ain't how it should be. They need not run the show like this. It's too noticeable.
    • Oh, I see! You posted this on the general retro soap thread because of the voiceover.
    • Yeah, I agree. It's part of the reason I have shade picked on Martin's Secret being so on the backburner that it was about to fall off of it. With Dani/Bill/Hayley being the main tale to start us off and backburned and the SilkPress storyline being well paced, but not set to explode until May, Martin's Secret was the other main storyline that could have been developed. And after giving it a nice slow burn to start off, the story upped and vanished in Month 2. That left the show having to rely on mostly B/C stories to stay afloat to various degrees of success. 
    • I loved those scenes, lol. I thought I was watching a stage play. But I do hear what you're saying.
    • Jason47's episode summaries clarify everything. https://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1990-1999-t14806-s150.html The construction company is "AJ Construction" (AJ = Adrienne+Justin).   Jencon Oil was building an oil refinery at the construction site.  This was adjacent to the park. Kirk Geiger played the character Chad Webster. The character Chad was an actor in the movie being made.   The child friend with Shawn-Douglas is his cousin Andrew Donovan. A few episodes prior, Andrew and Shawn-Douglas were at the park playing hide-and-seek. They wandered off where they shouldn't have gone, by slipping through the gate onto the construction site.  Shawn-D fell into the hole at the oil refinery. There were several episodes of trying to rescue Shawn-D.  Finally Carly rescued Shawn-D, but he was discovered to be deaf.  Andrew felt bad, but Bo and Shane both understood that it was an accident.  Carly later taught Shawn-D sign language. Shawn-D was played by Scott Groff. Andrew was played by Bradley Michael Pierce. pics here: https://web.archive.org/web/20070404163013/http://www.childrenofsalem.com/days/kids/shawnandrew/shawnandrew.html Larger context here: https://web.archive.org/web/20080614054207/http://www.bethsdayspage.com/days/riverfrontraider.htmlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20080614054207/http://www.bethsdayspage.com/days/riverfrontraider.html
    • I had a situation last week where I could watch the new episode on Paramount Plus on my laptop, but it wasn't even listed on my TV as an option.
