I missed her air time hogging years so I just don’t get the Eden McCoy hate lol, I think she’s been doing a decent job with what she’s been given.

I missed them too so all the hate for her is always fascinating to me.

I will agree the montage today was a straight Guza ripoff.  It wasn't up to even late Guza standards, but if felt very much like what he would have done-just less effectively.

Well, I saw people called it these New/Old writers' version of 'Clink, Boom.'

 

Not as good naturally.

Not a chance 😂😂😂

Thanks.

I wasn’t sure at first, but then I remembered Lois and Olivia referring to each other as “Cuz”

I'm not sure if they do. Joss and Dex left a dying woman so they could have sex, and she also cheated on a well-liked character, yet viewers were meant to side with them at every turn.

But in this case, it’s the precious Sonny-Carly kid that can do no wrong, who’s getting cheated on 😂

And the way this regime feels about all of them, no matter how awful they are, I can see them making Drew and Willow the bad guys in this case.

Not nearly as good. 

Structurally, it was strange it was at the beginning of the show.  I know GH has been preempted so days are off, but it feels like the montage should have been a Friday cliffhanger and the rest of yesterday's episode should have been the fallout on a Monday.

I remarked elsewhere that this week has seemed to me to be like a Sweeps month which January is NOT. But the activity level alone seems Sweeps-ish to me & yes, certain days seem like it's Friday & cliffhanger content, not some random Tuesday!

Of course the very first moments of the first scene were horribly off-putting to me. I hate these strange camera angles, whether they're from downlow looking up or this one way up high in a corner looking down at Lucy. They do this so often that they are meaning to do it. I guess they think it looks edgy?

The actress playing Brooklyn is pregnant right? She looks huge on this show so its puzzling why they refuse to write the pregnancy in considering the character is actively trying to get pregnant. They'll have to write her out in a few months anyway

 

The show keeps saying and had Carly talk about how impulsive and head strong Josslyn is, more so than she is but Im not seeing that. Josslyn is nothing like Carly in her younger days or even now

I was never crazy about Laura Wright's Carly. She never felt Carly to me, more like an aging ingenue. These days I love her. She looks older, tougher and... like a Carly.

If they plan to continue this thing with Drew, they must recast Willow. He looks like a pervert with a 14-year old. The actress acts like she is on Swans Crossing.

or recast Drew. CM is a horrrible fit for the role and has ruined him. Its giving Ryan Lavery

The last I knew Amanda Setton was not pregnant IRL but time has passed & she might be now.

Sofia Mattson is pregnant IRL. (Sasha) I thought that this was known & had been stated. If not, apologies.

When do you think it changed for you? It's kind of crazy to me, to think of how long LW has been playing this role! I think my favorite things about LW's Carly are that there's been enough time & enough differences in the writing that we've seen real change in Carly with some of that being growth & some of it just being difference. And I also love that she is one of the biggest cheerleaders of the show & of her colleagues that I think I've ever seen on any soap. Last, I love that she has such an excellent attitude about her character's haters & in general fans on social media. Yesterday she had made a positive post about her & Steve, as friends & colleagues on the show & some poster posted that they did not like Carly & Jason & she replied, "Why do you follow me then?" and I literally did laugh out loud.

There hasn't been any kind of announcement, either via Amanda Setton or the serial.

I am not aware of Sofia Mattson or Amanda Setton making any announcements about being pregnant so we probably shouldn't speculate.

I think the boxy blazers AS wears are just unflattering.  She generally looks the same as she has for years to me.

Oh thanks and my bad. I thought I read something about her online being pregnant but I guess that wanst confirmed

For me, Amanda Setton has stepped into Kirsten Storms territory, ie: letting the actor dictate how the character is dressing. I hated it when Storms was [apparently] doing it, and I hate that [it appears] Setton is now doing it. But, truthfully, the styling for Setton's Brook Lynn has never been to my liking or what I believe the character should be wearing.

The only online place I can find it is Celeb Dirty Laundry, which is known for being an unreliable, gossip-type rag with people who think they're journalists. And, of course, other rags and unreliable websites (and Facebook groups who believe anything written) have picked up the unfounded story.

I was going to say it's going into KS territory too.  AS seems to be picking things that she is comfortable in, but don't look the best on camera.  

AL's styling as Brook Lynn was the polar opposite and looked cheap too.  There has to be a happy medium between covering it all up like Setton and doing whatever Leon was doing.  BLQ doesn't have to wear the wild things Lois sometimes wears, but you think she'd at least take some inspiration from her mom and upbringing and be more adventurous.
