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

      I love me some Anita and TT. They need to give her a good storyline and I know that it's coming.

      Critics Unleashed!

      By DRW50 · Posted

      @Franko Thanks for tagging me. A few days ago I was talking in another thread about the rise of "snarky" critics for TV shows in the '90s online recaps, but this is just more along the lines of a mauling. There's also the unspoken reality that these were seen as movies for women, so therefore they sucked. Pauline Kael also had her share of blunt, at times incredibly nasty remarks, but the vitriol is often balanced by her love for film. I'm not seeing that here.  With that said, the comment about Field's work becoming unbearable describes how I felt when I tried to sit through her and Maura Tierney on ER.

      I skipped most of Daniel too. I think it's awful he has kids with Nicole, Csrky5 and Chloe and Brady, Bo and Philip do not.

      Today was very focused on Bo and his illness.  I’m liking how everything is ultimately tied together, even though everybody doesn’t know it yet. The EJ connection seems a little sudden and random though. I’m guessing that that was not on Ron’s agenda. And I’m not really sure why any of these rich people couldn’t help the hospital months ago lol  But I really like how the whole sepsis drug thing is being written a lot more realistically than what we’ve grown accustomed to with Dr. Rolf and all of his wonder drugs. They’re definitely putting more of an effort into this storyline. It feels more real.  Philip was a little whiny and self-pitying today, but I also feel like the writing has improved for him as well. He’s coming off less like a villain and more like a tragic hero. I enjoyed his scene with Stephanie and hopefully it means that at some point, we’ll get a revival of Philip/ Stephanie/Alex. Tying it to Stephanie’s novel could be really good. And, the dorkiness of Xander and Sarah was really sweet too. I’m looking forward to their weekend together and what secrets may or may not come out lol

      "And I also want to flirt with every woman that comes my way... but then beat up anyone who talks to my wife. BECAUSE I'M A MAAAAAAAAAAAN." Give me a break with your ugly baby paintings... You're in the same category of the hacks that sell paintings with a single dot for thousands or even millions of dollars.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By Maxim · Posted

      I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore.
