I am not sure there ever was a plan for Gio.  It really seems like GM was hired to appear and play at the wedding and Frank liked him.   Then the show just inserted him into the Joss/Trina group and the Q's while they tried to figure out what to do with the character.  Why the show landed on Brook/Dante's secret summer camp love child is a mystery to me though lol.

Wasn't he mentioning some kind of anger toward Sonny early in his run? I remember people speculating at the time about where that would go.

Gio and Trina definitely had a spark a few weeks ago. I’d be interested in a triangle with Kai if we’re forced to have them in these cheesy storyline, might actually make it less high school special.

Lol this makes me SO angry 😂😂. I will regularly bring it up once a month at least with my Sonny hate as I continue my efforts to get @carolineg to hate Sonny too 😂😂

Well, I have lasted this long, so it's unlikely.😂

You have strength in numbers.  I am probably the only one on this board who even mildly likes Sonny 🤣 and most days I don't.  I just don't hate him.

I don't recall.  I remember him not knowing Sonny very well at all in the beginning yet he paid for all Gio's schooling-which seemed really odd.

@DRW50 Gio didn’t have any beef with Sonny, he idolized him and continues to do so.

I have 0 attachment to this Cameron since I wasn’t watching when he was on but the family reunion for Liz was nice to see. All of those concerns about this Aidan looking too old were made moot today since he looked believable as being the younger brother.

I did want some deeper stuff with Cam and Lucky and I’m disappointed the show didn’t play some tension there but I did like them singing together at the end.

Drew stalking Willow at Jordan’s event was gross and I loved Jordan’s open disdain for him and running interference with Felicia. I liked her stuff with Isaiah too.

Curtis has been entertaining me now that he’s not letting Drew and Michael walk all over him in business. Glad he made Michael make him CEO before they tanked the Auroa stock for the takeover.

Jason telling Carly not to go after Willow and Drew was funny because you already know she ain’t gonna listen 😂 I want her to destroy them tbh

I like Nina’s new house set and I’m ready for her and Carly to go to war for their kids and grandkids

Trina and Josslyn’s scenes dealing with their mutual dead boyfriend grief…this Dex death just feels very hollow for me and I don’t care at all.

Maybe it was Gio and Trina arguing about Sonny vs Ava at the time. 

The connection to Sonny does make me think there were some plans from early in his arrival to make him Dante's son...wasn't this when all the babymaking stuff with Brooklyn and Chase started too?

I definitely feel like the potential Brook Lynn & Dante parental twist was always in the works. There was something intentionally off about those early scenes of Lois and Brook Lynn explaining Gio’s family backstory to Carly and others.

I agree

I think Sonny, Lois and Olivia know the truth that BLQ is Gio's Mom

I don't, either. Joss with those Xmas presents for Dex is so lame and empty. I feel nothing, and I blame the writers. If we'd seen a better and consistent love story between them, we might care.

-- That coffee warehouse set will never not be hilarious.

Welcome back, Cam! We’ve missed you! 😊😊😊

From the very first scene, it was obvious that he should be back on the canvas and leading the younger crowd as well. And I loved seeing him so happy, and with a girl who actually respects and appreciates him. Gretchen the cellist is a massive upgrade. And honestly, I see this whole situation as well deserved karma and I couldn’t be happier. #MerryChristmasCam

The Spencer/Webber family scenes were the best part of today. I loved seeing them interact as a whole. And that Cam and Lucky sang for everybody. I was hoping we would get that. Cam and Aidan did have good brother chemistry as well. Maybe it’s time to meet Tobias too 😂

But I agree that there should been scenes of Cam and Lucky just catching up. It’s too bad that their relationship’s been so diminished in the last decade or so. Btw, I love how, despite Lucky basically being erased from Cam’s life for all these years, they always remembered to have him call Laura “Grandma.”

As for Drew, did CM really say that Drew and Willow could be the next Luke and Laura? 😂😂😂

What happened to Michael Knight? It's like he forgot how to act or something. Why is he even on this show?

Lucky looked really domestic. Kind of goes against the last couple of months of him saying every 10 minutes that he needs to leave town..

MEK has been terrible. It feels like he's playing a different character every day.

That's what happens when you don't have a real character to play and no director or producer with a firm vision FOR that character.

I had to laugh at his scene with GF the other day. His accent would come and go during that scene with GF.

If he meant an older man preying on a troubled younger woman, he's not far off. Is that what he meant?

I agree that there's nuanced material with Lucky and Cam they could have tried, but that would mean making an effort.
