That was the bare bones of my idea, yes. But I'll tell that story in private sometime, if you (or someone else) asks to hear it. I would basically use it to blow the last of the network budget as a prep for moving to streaming and culling cast lol.

No way, lol!  If Brenda comes back after helping Sonny die (yep, I said it), I want her paired with someone who's new to the show, mature and sexy as hell.  My girl deserves the best.

I actually like JPS as Valentin but find it bizarre that the show has found itself in a situation in which he’s been the only viable romantic option for Anna for years. JPS and Finola have more chemistry than almost any of the other current pairings on the show IMO but it shouldn’t be hard to find other options for her if they can’t or won’t commit to making Valentin a consistent presence.

Lol.  I am fine with her getting a new love interest.  Hopefully someone more exciting than that block of wood Murphy they paired her with last return.

I have personally always been a sucker for Brenda/Jason and what might have been.   I know Jason is beyond tired as a character now, but there is something really interesting to me about Brenda knowing Jason before he was Jason Morgan.   She is one of the very few characters that was close to both iterations of Jason.  I don't think Brenda would do that to Robin, but at this point Robin's own mother is being teased with Jason so I doubt that matters.

I am one who doesn't think Jason & Anna are being teased at all. Partners? Perhaps. Colleagues? Yep, looks like it. Romance? No way, not in hell, not in heaven, nowhere. Both Finola & Steve have looked at this idea with ... scorn. Some people look at that kiss & seem to lose their minds. Other people see the same scene & see subterfuge, actions taken hoping to escape injury or death. That they talk & work in concert doesn't spell romance, much less sex.

 

I thought we knew that JPS declines when it comes to contract vs recurring. So, I suggest it's not that they won't, it's all on the actor, not the show. At least in this one instance. If this is wrong, I'm sure someone will come along & inform me/us.

The fact that Jason/Anna kissed at all means there is a pairing being teased.  Will it become a full on romance?  Probably not.  It seems Jason is destined for Sasha now.   Obviously the show has been struggling to find a place for Steve/Jason after Jarly flopped again.  Colleagues and partners just don't make out on a soap opera.  It's an action that means something.

Just have to agree to disagree here. When I look at that scene, in Africa, in captivity, what I see is a diversionary tactic, period. Also, to me, one kiss does not equal making out. I agree that it meant something, just not something romantic. Also, Romantic Jarly hasn't been tried again so it's impossible for it to have flopped. Romantic Jarly's last attempt was completely derailed by Sonny's return from Nixon Falls, 2021. Neither 2024 nor 2025 has yet to yield anything but friendship, which of course is in itself valuable.

I honestly do not think they were going for it. I do not personally believe there was anything to back off of. Also I think both Finola & Steve have indicated that it was not ever meant to be even a prelude to romance. They point to the Robin-ness of it all.

I assume the same.  I didn't see a single positive reaction to it at least on here lol.  I also believe both Finola and Steve weren't thrilled about it as well.  Both seem very protective over their characters relationship with Robin.  We still do get scenes of them of them falling all over one another about how great of friends they are.  Which...whatever show.

That isn't good. It's PHENOMENAL.

GH would be wise to air this and kick off Jarly. I never gave a ton of thought to them as a couple before...I was kind of meh about them...but this video sold me.  I mean, sealed the deal.

The person who put this together has real talent. LW and SB should see this.

    • Agreed. Certainly there was concern maybe even fear at the highest levels for the very good reason that what they had was so economically successful, so of course this risk was scary but if anyone was brave she was. Yes, he was. I have seen her associated with getting it on the air one other place but no details nor official title. Not the writer or creator so it made me wonder if she functioned as a kind of uncredited ad hoc producer, but then maybe she just supported it. At any rate that is nothing but supposition on my part. No data! Yes, not a surprise anymore but still so frustrating! On one hand I am appreciative that she is included in this book, but scholarship where are you?!
    • that wasnt her point. She wanted to further demonize Ted; that was the main focus of their talk. She wants to ensure that Nicole leaves him so that he's free and single to be with her. At this point, I dont think she really cares what Nicole thinks of her; she just wants her out of the way Eva got what she got from Anita bc of Hayley. I think its important to remember that context bc they just dealt with an interloper that infiltrated their ranks and hurt her daughter in the worse way. Now you have another unfortunate girl positioned to do the same to her other daughter. The feelings are still too fresh and she doesnt want Eva to get the idea that she would ever be allowed the opportunity to play them again
    • Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect! Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect!
    • Eve was one of those characters that had the "Jessie Brewer"role. They had heavy storyline, they burned through it and now they are there for support and a touchstone in the community (Marland wanted to give Jessie story, but I agree with Monty...she best served in her connecting role, and keeping that damn Amy Vining busy so she keeps her nose out of things) So charcters are important and why they should have kept characters like Bridget around (even as she is more volatiles then Eve) who didnt need a big storyline but could have been behind the bar making connections and expostion, but Rauch wanted JEVA/JEVA/JEVA and DRAMA (which to him meant a lot of yelling and stupidity.)
    • Why do I feel like (or remember possible

    • A number of errors in the above article. You wonder how with all that research,how  they slipped through. I think they are conflating Women Alone with Lonely Women. I have never read anything of a serial called Women Alone. However,I am prepared to be proven wrong.   It seems Irna actually WAS interested in TV soaps as witnessed by These Are My Children airing in 1949 on NBC in the early days of TV.   I don't believe that was reluctance, rather simply good business sense as radio's dominance began to wane.   Inferring that was somehow connected to Irna who was off that show 10 years prior.   Again inferring that Phillips leaving 6 years prior had some connection to the eventual cancellation.     Again these two events are in fact one. Irna left ATWT only once in 1970 and returned in 72. She was not working on another P&G show at the time. So either she brought the ratings up or they dipped, depending on which above account you believe   Untrue. A World Apart debuted 5 years after she left AW. And AWA aired longer than a few months. Over a year in fact.   I believe Orin Tovrov was the writer. Irna was not involved in the creation of this show. And no mention of Masquerade an Irna serial  which was on air around this time.   TBD finished in 1962. As we see over and over, these inaccuracies are published and accepted as fact.
    • YES! While I objectively found the writing on RH (particularly during its first few years and then again in its final days) to be excellent, so many of the principle characters were unpleasant, and totally turned me off. I could never settle down and become emotionally involved with a group of people who grated on my nerves.
    • Ugh now we get a Emmerdale and Corrie crossover soon. ugh.. How desperate 
    • This show is definitely not one to deserve the axe.  especially the New Year’s Eve episode was crazy wild! there is a place where u can download nearly all episodes from October 2019 til today. But they don’t accept new people. https://youtu.be/aD-IXEJjymU?si=19wtpwthSNYOe-4y   this is from this years winter break when the returned. I loved it
