May 19, 2025 Fairman interviews Lynn Herring about the Nurses Ball.
Excellent interview and no GH spoilers.

CAUTION There is a minor DAYS spoiler from 12:15 to 14:15,
so if you are Days spoiler-free, then skip those two minutes.

Thus intentionally posting the link instead of embedding the youtube..

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen a good soap cat fight so this was highly satisfying.

Loved the Drew/Curtis scenes. Drew may not end up murdered but someone is going to try and kill him and it feels like it’s going to be much sooner than later.

Who thought Dante ranting and raving for weeks on end would be good writing just to create angst between him and Gio. I really don’t think you needed to make Dante this fuc.king annoying.

I had to stop watching early last week because I could not tolerate another interminable scene of Genie Francis valiantly attempting to keep pace opposite a disillusioned and confused Maurice Benard. Nevermind that the scenes largely consisted of Laura kissing the ring for some godforsaken reason, how is his performance acceptable? He’s painful to watch.

Another time when some fans have an idea that the show is very unlikely to share. LOL! Exception for last year when they *almost* did off Ava. But, then, does almost count? This version of Love2Hate Drew is not going anywhere. Since Frank is not going to authorize a murder or killing there can't be a mystery whodunnit because it's not getting dun. 

Edit to add: IMO, of course. I'm much more interested in whether we are getting Dark Michael?

Really enjoyed today's episode the whole way through. Having Drew and Nina as red carpet hosts was a brilliant move. You could really see Cameron Mathison channeling his own experiences as a TV host for shows like Entertainment Tonight, but putting a more sinister spin on the host's glib patter. And Cynthia Watros gave some amazing reaction shots during Drew's interactions with people like Carly, Joss, and Willow. 

I also really liked the Alexis/Kristina scenes. I know a lot of us find Kristina exasperating, and she is, but Kate Mansi and Nancy Lee Grahn do a great job of portraying a very real dysfunctional mother/daughter dynamic.

As much as I love the Nurses Ball, the campiness of it all always comes off as strange and a little cringey, because GH isn't often like that.

But whatevs, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens.

The surprise with Kai was kinda sweet. I wish they had spent more time on that, and given us more of Trina's POV, instead of rushing through it and talking more about his surgery. 

But yeah, poor Gio. He really should've escorted Emma instead of Joss

 I'm looking forward to seeing him perform though 

And, poor Tracy too. She will never be the bad guy in this whole situation with Sonny, Drew, etc., no matter how Chris and Elizabeth (or Frank) choose to write it.

Btw, since this is the Nurses Ball, where the hell is Nurse Liz?

-- Weirdest red carpet ever at the Nurses' Ball. Every conversation was filled with snark and shade or outright insults, and we even got an on-camera arrest of Tracy -- while Congressman Drew (who's never in DC) stood there. I guess it was more interesting than the usual.

-- Why did Gio walk the carpet with Joss?

-- Sonny is usually escaping mobsters who want to kill him. So of course he accompanies his granddaughter on the carpet. On camera.

    • How strange. Prime Video/IMDB cut Laura's kitchen scene from their version of "Willing Victims."
    • Is there any reason why Gail Kobe has a credit on this 2014 episode, which took place after she died and long after she had retired? Is this just someone messing up on IMDB (admittedly not the bastion of accuracy)? "Days of Our Lives" Episode #1.12469 (TV Episode 2014) - IMDb
    • Yeah, you're right about Nina.
    • -- Much better show than yesterday, although that was a low bar to surpass. -- Kat as detective is fun, and I appreciate that Jacob isn't made to look like an idiot while Kat gets it all right. -- The Anita/Tracy stuff was OK, although awfully cliched so far. I understand the Supremes stuff, but they need to do their own thing, too. -- Tracy and Anita recited those lines about being together and finished in unison with "Articulettes strong." Sorry, that made no sense. The "________ strong" phrase didn't become a thing until the 2010's. No way were they saying it 25+ years ago. -- Alex Alegria (Tomas) performs better with Eva than Kat. -- Since Laura has an impeccable manicure while in the hospital, maybe she should take a couple minutes and do something with her hair. Why they're clearly styling her as "hospital patient," that doesn't jibe with those nails. -- The Derek and Ashley stuff is SOOOO BAD that I'm captivated by it. Every scene is like watching a trainwreck. Are they letting middle schoolers write for that couple?       Ashley responds like a 12 year old to everything. It's embarrassing. When Jacob told her to text Derek, she said "What if he doesn't answer?" Jesus. Every response she has comes off like an emotional release from a teenager.       Derek continues to be the big lug who means well but just doesn't get it. He's written with zero depth. Still, I blame the writing for what we get from him more than I blame the writing for Ashley. Jen Jacob just isn't cutting it, and she's making a ton of wrong choices. -- Any couple living in that 2x4 apartment would struggle. It's insane for Ashley to yell things like "It's MY place and these are all MY things." Girl, you live in a hole and don't even have a double bed.  
    • Ashley and Derek have to be some of the lamest 30-somethings around. How does Derek, a grown man, think it's reasonable to crash on his married friend's couch? You're too old for this.  Ashley claims to be Type A, but she's missing work for a minor fight? Also, the acting has been rough the past two days...and Andre out here with the flaring nostrils having a whole emotional moment because Jen is out here being dramatic. Andre you're crying like you're the one fighting with Derek. I like this man less and less. These three stay PMO. I'm excited for this Articulette reunion. This girls better be carrying some bones about Anita and Vernon.  Not Tomas being mad at Kat because she's on track to figure out who ran down Laura. Tomas straight threw Kat under the bus too. He's playing both sides and wants the cake and to eat it too. Not to say, Kat hasn't been relentless about Eva, but she wasn't wrong to be suspicious and now with Leslie's manipulative lies why wouldn't Kat be suspicious.   
    • I don't find that too unrealistic these days, considering the state of Congress (just look at Nancy Mace...).
    • Nina I can see it as the head of a fashion mag and local heiress, but Drew? No.
    • Thanks for sharing. A classy tribute to Kate. Carole Ann Ford was very gracious in the interview. Loved seeing her react to the huge TARDIS (my favorite part of the last few seasons).
    • That's my question. I'm sure it's because CM has so much experience as a host/emcee, but for me that makes the whole thing much too meta. It makes no sense, and neither does Nina.
    • Tracy looks like Hayley who looks like June and they all look like Debbi Morgan
