I am going to say what should be said: Tabyana Ali (Trina) & Jens Austin Astrup (Kai) have zero chemistry. It's a dud pairing. To think Astrup was cast with the intention of being purposefully paired with Ali is so headscratching because the chemistry is not there. Realistically, Jequan Jackson (Quinn) is who they should be pairing her with, as there is actual chemistry between the two of them, and Astrup could be cut altogether and wouldn't be missed or even noticeably gone.

I still can't get behind a Brad/Lucas recoupling, but I thought Van Hansis really sold the hell out of those scenes, making me believe that (for whatever far-fetched reason) Lucas was ready to jump Brad's bones. 

I guess all those years being paired with Jake Silbermann really taught him how to generate onscreen sexual heat with a partner who's not giving you much to work with. Now if they'd just give him a love interest who could match his intensity--is Eric Sheffer Stevens still available?

Well, at least Brucas finally got to Miami

And yes, agreed that Van did a good job today. 

I love how Sonny wants his new house to be like Fort Knox, yet there’s a big ass window right in the main room

But what was that nonsense with Tracy and Martin? I’m glad that it seems to be building a Tracy/Gio grandma-grandson relationship though. 

The best surprises always sneak up from behind

Considering all the things happening on BTG, Sonny buying Valentin's house was really no comparison to soapy drama.   Anyhow, does Kristina just follow Sonny around town?  How weird was it that she just popped up and dissed Ava's house?  Like, girl, you only have a job because your dad gifted you a bar.

I do like Gio and Tracy though.

All I can say is, when you're about to go head-to-head with the first new soap opera in 25 years - not to mention, the first, hour-long soap with a Black family as the main cast - and the best you can do to counter that is "Josslyn Jacks, Super Spy".....

This daily thread used to be the most popular one on the board and now no one cares lol.  GH has been creatively struggling to do anything exciting for a long time.  It's not ridiculously horrible like Days, but it's just dull.  It's not even just the wash, rinse, repeat with Sonny/Jason/Carly show.  Everything has stalled.

    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
    • Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.
    • Those Soap Central profiles have a lot of incorrect info. According to SOD summaries and the Daytime Newsletter of the time,Tim left town for a new job and Pam reunited with the father of her baby and also departed Springfield.They did not marry.
