As for the writing team, I trust MVJ and her crew. Guza has a certain set of skills that make him valuable IMO, but it is Val Jean's show first and foremost. Any people who would immediately worry me are at the breakdown level and have no real creative power. Nor are they dialoguing.

Same.

You're right that the Sprina fans may watch. I was thinking more about the current GH viewers as I assume most of them quit last year, given Trina's treatment. The scene alone of her groveling to Joss and calling herself a bitch would have driven me away if I had mostly been invested in the character or her relationships.

There are a lot of people fed up with GH for many years who watched before, during and after Sprina though (us included!). I think there will be crossover and/or migration. The question is how much.

I mean I am not sure those who want BtG to be a break from GH will get that full break given that so many who ran GH (into the ground) are working at BtG.

Some of them are just irate because the show on their screens is not the show they've made up in their tiny little toxic heads. They demand they get their wishful thinking to do lists. So in that sense you may be right. Their only advantage is this blank slate as far as favorites go.

So what epsiode did Jason learn about Sam being murdered? I feel like I missed something bc he came back from EU and jumped straight into protecting Danny from Cyrus but I dont recall him ever being told and reacting to the news of what happened to her

-- Molly wore a winter coat. Why was she acting like she was naked in a blizzard? That chem test argument was so bad. And Cody couldn't just yell for help instead of throwing his jeans?

A coat doesnt stop you from being col especially if you are on a rooftop and potentially dealing with wind. And they both yelled fo help but it didnt work

Is your question when & how he learned of Sam's death? Or when he learned she was murdered?

I forgot a complaint. When NuJack said he was outside the cabin the whole time ... that was lame. Cyrus could have hurt her very badly with that axe. Was he just gonna stand there, outside & let it happen?

Also I meant to give myself a score for this week. Dex: Failed. Chase: Failed. ID bracelet: Failed. Jack offers WSB to Joss: A+

when he learned she was murdered. It boggles me how that and Cyrus involvement was supposed to be kept under wraps but everyone is finding out and talking about it

I'm not sure but I think Anna told him. You recall, her big lecture, for him not to kill him. That day, before the lecture. 

I think some are expecting BTG to be the miracle soap that is the be all end all and even though I feel BTG will be great, the pedestal some have placed it on will not satisfy those who put it there.

I don't need it to be a miracle soap. I need it to be better than GH, which is not remotely difficult.

Ideally it would hurt GH. Because hurting the show, and viewers leaving it, is the only thing that will force any change.

Not talking GH or any others I'm saying I feel some fans have put btg on a pedestal so high that no matter what it dies, it won't be enough for them

I do n̈ot want any of these shows hurt. I'm just digesting Neighbours going off in December 2025.

I want the remaining five to last and hopefully we get some new soaps down the line.

GH only had renaissances in the '70s and the '90s because it was failing and steps were taken. The only way a soap opera changes for the better is when it gets hurt.

Like I said before: This is not a pep rally. These executives and actors are not my IRL friends.

He already knew before Anna lectured him. He knew before he rushed to stop Danny from doing something stupid with Cyrus. Rocco told Jason that he told Danny that Cyrus was the main suspect in Sam's death. Jason did not seem surprised. That was the first indiction that he knew she was murdered unless i missed something prior to this

One thing they are not the same timeslot in 7 of the top 20 markets.

Brennan was testing Joss. If Cyrus killed her than she isn’t WSB material. By killing Cyrus she passed the test.

You have to admit that dying is a tough penalty for failing a test!!!
