I second @Antoyne. I too have been enjoying the X-mas episodes. But I've already mentioned that there has just been something about Christmas this year period. So the soaps having holiday episodes has been good to actually watch whether something is going on or not. 

 

I said last week that if there was something that JG is going to do it was write for the Abbotts. I loved the Jack/Kyle scenes. And that little moment that Kyle had on the stairs (and MM was looking kinda mmmm. But that I credit to either MM starting his buff up process as well as the new costume designer) was nice. Loved the early presents and seeing Diane and Kyle have a moment with her letters. And Jack, Diane, and the jewelry. Just cute moments.

 

And I'm always going to be here for Ashley vs Diane. She just cannot let Diane breathe and I love it. lol. And Traci made 3. Those scenes were cute. But I expect Ashley to not let up though she will try. 

 

OH STFU, GIGGLY HEFFA!!!! I loved Sharon FINALLY getting that bass in her voice and telling Phyllis to get out of her house. That was the Mal Young Sharon that was needed in that moment. And I didn't hate it. I also enjoyed that Daniel is slooooowwwwly coming around to seeing that Sharon might be right. 

 

You know you are looking crazy when I am Team Billy and I loathe Billy. Get that redhead into another plot please.

 

I was about to throw something at my TV if Summer had broken up with Chance. My way of saying how invested I'm in in Chance/Summer. And just how CF looks at AL. I'm happy they talked it out. I just wish that Chance could be included more. And with this Sharon plot slowly coming to an end, I'm now worried he's going to up and vanish.

The only thing missing from that Phyllis/Sharon scene at her house was a good ol slap to the Giggly one who really had the nerve to barge into her house on Christmas Eve. 
 

The drinks with Traci/Ashley/Diane were perfect. You know I was getting my life from Ashley’s reactions

Okay...now I am starting to get on board with the Daiman storyline. Could he be a self-made businessman and Nate and Amy just don't know? One bent on revenge? Cuz there is a void where Tucker and Ashland used to be for that spot. Though that immediate would give Daiman a limited shelf life if so. Or is it going to be something contrived like that backstory about Amanda and Hilary's dad...which I was not regularly viewing at that point? Or is he just a henchman for someone else bigger? Those were the things that came to mind watching the scenes in L.A. Well, that and the fact that I don't think (unless someone corrects me) that the weather there right now is any better than it is here in San Diego aka brrrrr.

Okay, you all are right. I was side-eying those scenes with Victor and Cole as well. What angle could Victor be working? Or is it a possibility since Cole will be in the publishing division that he might be clashing with Adam. And I just rolled my eyes at Adam/Chelesa, though I admit I did like MCE's acting in Chelesa's scenes with Victor. 

 

I guess now that I am done with the week, I would say the new designer continues to dress everyone like it is wintertime in Genoa City. I don't feel like anyone has dressed out of sorts at all this week. And I would say that people are dressing in darker colors. And I don't mind it at all. MTS continues to look like a clotheshorse. And I continue to love her short hair. That said...I mentioned earlier that I wonder if the GH writers read this board due to some 2025 spoilers. I'm going to wonder the same for Y&R given the Nikki/Lauren scene about gratitude and spirituality which I don't post about here, but I don't mind having a fan on my pages.  

 

Overall, I thought that was an enjoyable week. 

LOL!!! SAME. I'm surprised that Sharon hasn't slapped her yet. 

 

You were not alone on Ashley's reaction.

I have to third both @Taoboi and @Antoyne on their thoughts and sentiments.

The holiday episodes and really last two weeks have got that momentum back as well as having a lot of heart. 
 

I can’t add much more because I pretty much agree with @Taoboi’s sentiments already expressed, especially on how nice and mature those Chance/Summer scenes were. Sure they’re in a difficult moment due to outside forces but still love and understand each other.

The New Year’s Eve episode was also great with the nice twist at the end!

Also I loved seeing a shocked Phyllis look like a total loser upon seeing Danny return and love on Christine right after mocking his absence to her. Serves her right lol!

I don't know about the momentum lol, but it IS moving again. 

 

Yeah, I love having CF and I like Chance so it be annoying how he's been a bit missing during the tail half of this Sharon storyline when it was a nice supporting character and it was giving drama to the Chance/Summer relationship. It's also why I've started to side-eye the abrupt Summer side-eying at Kyle/Claire because I just knew it was not just co-parenting hatred.

    • I was cracking up at how Silk Press tried to hump Not Ted's leg as soon as Kat walked in, but her cackling at the end is getting OTT.
    • I think Doug needs to get his own sidepiece, but not Dani. Dani is only tolerable with Andre (and her daughter Chelsea), so let's keep her there. How about Shanice? She seems like she really cares about him as a person.
    • Does anyone know the air date on the very first time Stephanie referred to Brooke as "The Slut from the valley"?
    • Does anyone know the air date of the very first John & Stefano scene? As well as the air date on the very last time they had a scene?
    • They interacted before when Dani and Pamela were at the casino. 
    • The last few episodes have been good; the acting, the emotions. It's nice to see that GH can still do classic soap opera. I do wish that they would respect their long term audience more and do it without all the silly rewrites though. And where do they go from here? I'm a bit pessimistic and fully expect the show to go back to the drama-less, boring mess it usually is. I'm giving it a month, tops.

These three weeks have ratings data (one from Daytime TV; the other two of the three weeks have ratings & share data from Soap Opera Weekly) These weeks are missing the affiliates/clearances and partial preemptions data.

These ten weeks are missing the final ratings/shares/affiliates/clearances and partial preemptions data. Full preemption data is confirmed by comparing the # of telecasts in the preceding and succeeding books.

These 25 weeks are all missing the preliminary ratings and full/partial preemptions data.   TOTAL: 39 Weeks of data missing from 1/1/73-Present (out of 2,735 weeks)  98.6 percent complete!   Note: From the Days of Our Lives and Another World research, the full & partial preemptions should be all available, even from the 39 weeks above.
    • Yes. They were very much out of ideas for Reva by this time. A talk show, blindness...the time travel story... That would have made sense.  (were they acknowledging the Beth/Bill relationship by this point)

    • I can see why the Sam/Amanda story went downhill so fast. Thomas Gibson was a terrible replacement. I don't remember the circumstances of RKK quitting  (if his contract was over or if the departure was more acrimonious), but Gibson just sucks the energy out of every scene. He has no chemistry with anyone.
