Okay, the fact that Valentin has a fake passport that reads "Will Cortlandt" made me laugh out loud. Also a nice touch that Charlotte has a fake passport that reads "Melanie Cortlandt."

That does make me smile, silly as it may be. 

I wonder what the last time even AMC mentioned Lainie was.

The taping schedule is insane. Pretty hard for them to deliver any kind of quality.

So that's the example of how well Frank manages the budget? Yikes.

Honestly, I'm in awe of the performances we get considering that whack job of a taping schedule.

-Eva LaRue is afraid people don't like her character.

She's afraid? LOL The woman should know. I assume she's just trying to protect herself and her job, because she has to know how much she's disliked.

More info that I learned at the Zoom meeting:

-Giovanni Massi isn't ready to do fan events yet.

-The status of TJ actor Taj Bellows is unclear.

-Rena Sofer was on Loving but didn't say much about it.

-Rena Sofer guest-starred on Eva LaRue's show CSI: Miami but didn't have scenes with Eva.

-Eva talked more about her AMC role of Maria Santos than about Natalia. The Zoomers were more fans of Maria than Natalia.

-Eva hated saying Natalia's homophobic lines and asked the producers if she had to say them.

-Eva says that the writers are softening her character, but there is a bump in the road coming up.

WHAT?!!!! She asked if she had to say her lines?!!!  That's crazy!!!  It's not like she's some newcomer. She knows you have to say the lines that are written for you. 

Oh, wait, I get it. This was her way of objecting to her lines & hoping they'd change at least a few of them.

I have read some quotes from Rena about Loving where it didn't seem like a positive experience?  She more mocked her own acting and being so young though.

Again, I don't hate ELR for taking a job, but at least do the minimal research.  Blaze's mother/family was said to be homophobic long before ELR was cast so she shouldn't be shocked about the character making these comments.  The 58-year-old veteran actress being stunned she has to say mean things is like just a real walk back on the character and I am not buying it.

It is comical. Does she really need this job? Eva's done her share of primetime. Just move on.

Yesterday I meant to post about polonium poisoning. It's a real thing. The only difference is the Port Charles version has an antidote which IRL does not exist.

But, historically it is very Spencer. Helena did it to Luke.  We don't know who Valentin's intended target was. It causes radiation sickness which is a wasting away. IRL they have some things to alleviate symptoms, somewhat, not a lot. And, IRL, it is fatal. In 2006 Putin got rid of a Russian resistor in this way.

Idk.  I can't imagine co-signing Sonny's nonsense is satisfying for an actor. This feels like a massive downgrade for her and I am not even that much of a Maria or ELR fan.

My thoughts, exactly, lol.  You signed on to play a homophobic momager, Eva.  What did you EXPECT would happen?  That America would shove Sally Field aside and make YOU its' newest sweetheart?

Yeah, Idk if ELR thought working with Mo was a sweet deal or something, but trying to make us believe the character has legs is just her trying to get a few more paychecks at this point.

To be fair, if you're forever an ingénue Eva la Rue, you expect to be eventually be a reformed-homophobic, with her own history of trauma.

I think there are few producers who would cast her as an unrepentant baddie.  So, I could see the logic in her wanting to dial it back a bit, so the audience is willing to accept the shift.
